.
"No, don't like it?"
Zhong Wen was afraid that he heard wrongly, so he couldn't help but confirm again.
"He has a bad temper, is old, and is not very good-looking."
Li Yiru smiled and asked naturally, "Why do I like him?"
"In that case."
Zhong Wen blurted out, "What are you still hesitating about?"
"Would you like to stay?"
Li Yiru's answer once again exceeded his expectations, "What does it have to do with whether you like him or not?"
Zhong Wen suddenly fell silent, not knowing how to answer.
"He said he needed me."
Li Yiru then added, "No one has said anything like this to me for a long time."
"But……"
Zhong Wen blurted out, "I need you too!"
"What do you need me to do?" Li Yiru asked.
Zhong Wen was immediately speechless when asked.
"Now you are a big shot standing on top of the world. You have the power to dominate the world. Even Yuchi Chunhuo can't defeat you. There are so many masters under your command that you can compete with the royal court without losing."
Li Yiru looked directly into his eyes and said word by word, "Besides, you can't count the number of confidantes around you on both hands. Each of them is more beautiful than me, smarter than me, more talented than me, and stronger than me.
Even if an ordinary woman like me stays by your side, what will it do?"
"Can gain the favor of the Lord of Swords."
Zhong Wen laughed dryly and said, "How can it be ordinary?"
"how?"
Hearing what he said, Li Yiru was not only unhappy, but her eyes became more melancholy, "Is being ordinary a sin?"
"I, that's not what I meant..."
Zhong Wen's heart skipped a beat, and then he realized that he had said the wrong thing.
"is not what it means."
Li Yiru, who had always been gentle and approachable, turned out to be extremely aggressive, "What does that mean?"
"I……"
I don't know if it was because he felt guilty, but Zhong Wen, a veteran of Hua Cong, acted extremely dull when facing Li Yiru.
What followed was a long silence.
The breeze blew by, blowing Li Yiru's hair on her forehead, and also blowing the hem of her white skirt.
She just stood there so cutely, quiet and profound, elegant and gentle, with no emotion at all on her face.
"sorry."
Just when Zhong Wen was at a loss, Li Yiru suddenly sighed and slowly uttered three words.
"Why are you apologizing to me?"
Zhong Wen was feeling heavy and irritable, but he didn't know how to release this emotion.
"sorry."
Li Yiru just repeated these three words.
Zhong Wen stared blankly at her bright red lips opening and closing, feeling more and more irritated, as if ten thousand ants were crawling and biting her heart.
Then, he saw Li Yiru's tears.
When the two first met, Li Yiru was still a teenage girl with a sweet appearance and gentle personality. For a time, he thought she was a golden girl who grew up in a greenhouse.
But as the contact deepened, he gradually realized how wrong his judgment was.
This is a girl with an extremely tough character. No matter what hardships and difficulties she faces, she always has a sweet smile on her face, burying all the pain deep in her heart, leaving only warmth and sunshine to others.
Since their acquaintance, Zhong Wen has rarely seen her cry.
However, at this moment, right in front of him, Li Yiru's tears were flowing like a fountain, completely wetting his pink face, and he couldn't stop at all.
She just sobbed silently and made no sound, but Zhong Wen felt like his heart was piercing a knife, as if he had heard the saddest cry in the world.
At this moment, there was only one thought left in his mind.
That is to rush forward, hold this delicate body tightly in your arms, and never let go.
"Yes, sorry."
Li Yiru wiped the corners of his eyes vigorously and choked, "I know I shouldn't provoke you, and I know it's very annoying, but, I just can't help it..."
"Silly girl."
Zhong Wen's heart skipped a beat, and he could no longer restrain his impulse. He strode forward, stretched out his arms, and hugged the Daqian Empress tightly. His voice was softer than ever before, "What are you talking about? Our family remembers this.
How can you be annoying if you are cute?”
He didn't realize that this was the first time he called the other person "Yi Ru".
"You, what do you do?"
Li Yiru was taken aback, her pretty face turned red, and she twisted her delicate body and said, "Male, men and women are not allowed to kiss each other, why don't you let go quickly?"
After all, Zhong Wen had picked up so many girls, no matter how stupid he was, he wouldn't obediently let go at this moment. He put a little pressure on his hands, but instead hugged her tighter.
Li Yiru didn't work hard for long, and when she saw that she couldn't break free, she stopped continuing. Suddenly her whole body relaxed, and she slumped limply on Zhong Wen's broad chest. She leaned her head against his shoulder, motionless, and just cried silently.
"I was too stupid before."
Zhong Wen put his mouth close to her soft earlobe and whispered softly, "From now on, I will never let go."
"you you……"
Li Yiru trembled all over and became stiff instantly. The tears that were about to stop burst out again, "Why are you still teasing me like this?"
"Of course it's because..."
Zhong Wen's eyes were watery, and his voice had never been so gentle before, "I like it."
"like?"
Li Yiru bit her lip lightly, "We have known each other for so long, if you really like me, why didn't you tell me before?"
"You should know better."
A hint of apology flashed in Zhong Wen's eyes, and he smiled bitterly and said, "There are already too many beauties around me. Even if you cut your heart into ten parts, it won't be enough. How can you dare to incur more love debts?"
"Is it?"
Li Yiru raised her pink neck, a trace of sadness and sadness flashed in her eyes, "In that case, wouldn't it be in line with your wishes if I stay here?"
"It's a pity that I didn't suddenly discover it until today."
Zhong Wen pressed her smooth face closely together, "You are not a new love debt."
"What?"
A trace of confusion flashed in Li Yiru's eyes.
"Just because it was a long time ago."
Zhong Wen touched his heart, his eyes were extremely sincere, and his eyes were like a vast ocean, trying to completely submerge her, "You have already occupied an important position in my heart."
"How important is it?"
Li Yiru's delicate body trembled slightly, her white jade-like hands tightly grasped Zhong Wen's clothes, and she stared into his eyes and spoke word by word.
"If Brother Yuchi wants to snatch you away."
Zhong Wen replied without hesitation, "I'm going to fight him to the death, with me and without him, with him and without me!"
"Who cares!"
Li Yiru was amused by him and laughed. She couldn't help but rolled her eyes slightly, "It would be better if you were hacked to death by him."
"Even if you die in the hands of brother Yuchi."
Zhong Wen chuckled and gently stroked the beauty's jade back with his hands, his movements gradually becoming more ambiguous and more wild, "I will also turn into a ghost and come back to haunt him, making him unable to eat or sleep at night, until I give up on you.
"
"screw you!"
Li Yiru giggled and patted his chest, and said angrily, "You are already dead, and you still want others to give up on me. Isn't this hurting others but not benefiting yourself?"
"I do not care!"
Zhong Wen acted like a child playing rogue, shook his head and said, "You are mine anyway, if I can't get it, no one else can get it either!"
"Don't worry, if you die."
Li Yiru's smile faded, her face gently leaned against his chest, and she whispered softly, "I will never live alone."
"Sister Emperor, you..."
Zhong Wen was stunned when he heard this, and looked down, only to see the girl's cheeks were flushed, her eyes were twinkling, and there was endless tenderness in her eyes. The originally gentle and dignified girl turned out to be charming and charming, which made his heart skip a beat.
He kept jumping and almost couldn't help but turn into a beast and make some rude actions.
"Do you know how Sister Mingyue evaluates me?"
Sensing his extremely aggressive look, Li Yiru blushed, buried her head deeply in Zhong Wen's arms, and asked in a voice as light as a mosquito.
"A foodie who can compare with her?" Zhong Wen joked.
"That's true."
Li Yiru chuckled and said, "But in private, she often likes to call me a stubborn cow."
"Stubborn cow?"
Zhong Wen was stunned for a moment, "You?"
"In the imperial capital, she is the one who knows me best and knows that I have a stubborn temper."
Li Yiru patiently explained, "I usually look easy to talk to, but once I make up my mind, even ten dragons can't bring me back. I'm sure you won't be unaware of my feelings for you. Since you like someone,
Regardless of whether I can get a response or not, I will never like anyone else in my life, besides..."
"Besides?"
Zhong Wen was moved and asked subconsciously.
"Besides, Yuchi Chungou just wants me to stay and help."
Li Yiru smiled and replied, "It doesn't mean anything about men and women."
"No?"
Zhong Wen was stunned for a moment, "Then why did he leave you?"
"In order to pursue a higher realm of swordsmanship."
Li Yiru's answer was both unexpected and reasonable, "He needs me to calm the sword energy in his body."
"That's it?"
"That's all."
After receiving her affirmative answer, Zhong Wen felt relieved and let out a long breath.
"No one will compete with you."
Li Yiru joked with a half-smile, "Did you suddenly feel that I'm not that important anymore?"
"how come?"
Zhong Wen's face straightened, he shook his head and said, "It's thanks to this misunderstanding that I realized my true feelings in my heart, so..."
Halfway through his words, he suddenly leaned down, opened his mouth and bit the girl's delicate red lips.
This kiss lasted for a long, long time...
