"Forget it." Zhao Changyuan finally turned around and said, "I won't force you. I just hope that after this trip to Shen Xuefeng, you can see my heart clearly. That's good."
After Zhao Changyuan finished speaking, he walked out. Gong Yueyue took a long breath and felt that the big stone in her heart suddenly disappeared.
She knew that Zhao Changyuan liked her, and she had some thoughts about him, but she couldn't face him yet.
After putting the prepared dishes into a bowl, she took them out of the house and put them on the table. She then took out the bowls and chopsticks and put them on the table. Gong Yueyue felt like an ordinary woman, serving her husband.
There was actually a hint of shyness and sweetness that shouldn't have been there.
"Okay?" Zhao Changyuan walked into the room and reached for the spoon, but she beat him to it: "I'll do it."
The kisser served him a bowl of soup, and Gong Yueyue stepped aside silently and stood with his hands down.
"What are you doing?" Zhao Changyuan glanced at her, his eyes full of confusion: "This is not in the mansion, and even if it is in the mansion, when have I asked you to abide by these rules? Sit down and eat.
.”
"Yes." Gong Yueyue nodded, walked to the table and sat down, then picked up the bowls and chopsticks to eat.
I have to say that the taste of the soup was very delicious, it was several times more delicious than what he had eaten before. Zhao Changyuan drank sizzlingly from the bowl, looking very greedy.
After drinking a large bowl of soup, he raised his head and saw that she was still there in a daze. He couldn't help but said: "Duo'er, what's wrong with you?"
"Nothing." Gong Yueyue lowered her eyes, brought the bowl to her lips, and slowly drank the soup in the bowl.
After eating, Zhao Changyuan stood up and said, "It's really cold here. I'm going to go out and look for anything that can make a fire. You stay in the house alone, but don't run around. Do you understand?"
"Yes." Gong Yueyue smiled and nodded: "Don't worry, I won't go anywhere."
Zhao Changyuan nodded and walked out. Seeing that he had reached the door, he stepped back.
"What's wrong with you?" Gong Yueyue looked at him strangely: "What are you doing when you come back?"
"I don't trust you." Zhao Changyuan looked at her deeply: "This is not Luo Xuancheng. No one can protect you except me."
"Then -" Gong Yueyue stood up: "I'll go find firewood with you."
"Okay." Zhao Changyuan breathed a sigh of relief.
Gong Yueyue wrapped herself in clothes and walked out of the house with Zhao Changyuan. Before she could stand still, she felt a cold wind blowing against her face. Gong Yueyue couldn't help but sneezed loudly.
"Look at you." Hearing her voice, Zhao Changyuan immediately stepped back, took off his cloak and wrapped it around her: "He is always so careless and doesn't take good care of himself."
Gong Yueyue raised her head and looked at him in shock: "You gave me the cloak, what will you do?"
"Me?" He shrugged his shoulders, looking indifferent:
It’s rough on the skin but thick on the inside, it’s no big deal.”
Gong Yueyue wanted to take off her cloak and give it to him, but who knew that Zhao Changyuan had already taken her hand and walked forward.
"Look here." Zhao Changyuan stopped under a tree and looked up at the sky: "There is not even a trace of dust. It is like a paradise. In fact, it would not be bad to live here for a long time."
"Do you like it very much?" Gong Yueyue looked at him with a smile.
"Don't you always like clean and bright things the most? I think this place fits your style very well - simple, quiet, without any mundane atmosphere."
"Yeah." Gong Yueyue nodded: "Actually, many disputes in the world are caused by people who like to compare with each other - they always want to make everything they own their own, but they don't know that this is a sin.
.”
"Oh?" Zhao Changyuan raised his eyebrows slightly: "I'm surprised to hear you say that."
"That's right." Gong Yueyue raised her head and looked at the snow-covered stone houses in the distance: "I do like it here, very much, because here, I can clearly see my heart——
There, it’s just me.”
"Only you?" Zhao Changyuan could not help but take a step forward and hold Gong Yueyue's hand: "Isn't there me?"
Gong Yueyue shrank a little and took a step back, almost hitting a tree behind. Zhao Changyuan couldn't help but sigh, stepped forward to grab her hand, and touched her hair: "Silly girl, why are you so anxious? I'm afraid
It's not a tiger, it won't eat you."
Gong Yueyue turned around and muttered in a low voice: "You are scarier than a tiger."
"What did you say?" Zhao Changyuan walked around to her and looked at her with open eyes: "What were you talking about just now?"
"No." Gong Yueyue quickly denied it: "I didn't say anything just now."
"Little girl, you know how to play tricks with me. Remember, when you go up the mountain, you must follow me closely, otherwise you will fall under the cliff, which is not fun."
"Yes." Gong Yueyue nodded and looked at him with a playful smile.
Zhao Changyuan then took long strides and walked forward, with Gong Yueyue following closely behind him, walking through a sparse forest and arriving in front of a stone gate.
This is a very strange stone gate - there are tall columns on both sides, but there is a huge animal head on the top. Gong Yueyue looked at it carefully for a long time, but she didn't understand what was carved on it.
"Stop looking." Zhao Changyuan stopped on the stone path and turned to look at her: "That is the sacred beast guarding the mountain. You have never seen it before."
The guardian beast?
Gong Yueyue has indeed never seen it before.
Moreover, she discovered one thing. It seemed that since she left Longhua City, the outside world and the palace were completely different.
As a woman, she would naturally not join in the disputes between the two countries and fight on the battlefield. But when I met Ah Chen and Zhao Changyuan, it seemed that I had discovered another world.
A completely different world from before.
"Let's go." Zhao Changyuan came over and took her hand: "There are a lot of these things in front of you."
Gong Yueyue agreed and walked forward behind him, but couldn't help but look back frequently, always feeling that the mountain guarding beast was very strange.
Suddenly, Zhao Changyuan stopped.
"What's wrong?" Gong Yueyue also quickly stopped, walked around his side and looked forward, only to see a deep ravine shrouded in clouds and mist.
Gong Yueyue took a breath of cold air: "How are we going to get through this?"
Zhao Changyuan also frowned, obviously not expecting such a thing to happen.
"It looks like we have to go back and prepare some tools before coming up again, or find a guide."
"Okay." Gong Yueyue nodded: "Then let's go down the mountain first."
"How are you? Can you still bear it?"
"It's okay." Gong Yueyue shook her head: "Although the pharmacist's medicine is not easy to use, it temporarily suppressed the poison in my body. You don't have to worry."
"Okay." Zhao Changyuan nodded and led her back to the town along the original road. He sent Gong Yueyue back to the yard and went out to find something.
Gong Yueyue stayed alone in the room. She didn't know why but she felt very uneasy. The huge animal head always flashed in her mind...
I don't know how long it took, but the door creaked. Gong Yueyue suddenly turned her head and saw Zhao Changyuan walking in.
"You're back?"
"Yes." Zhao Changyuan nodded and placed a large bundle of ropes on the table: "With these, we can climb over the deep cliff."
Gong Yueyue was speechless, and there was no excitement on her face.
"What's wrong with you?" Zhao Changyuan sat down in front of her and looked at Gong Yueyue very strangely: "Since you came back from the mountain, your face has been very ugly."
"I can't tell." She raised her hand and covered her chest: "I always feel like a black shadow is following us...it..."
After saying that, Gong Yueyue turned around and looked around: "It seems to be lurking in a corner, and it will jump out at any time and bite me hard."
"You think too much." Zhao Changyuan comforted her: "Even if something happens, I will be here and I will protect you."
"I know." Gong Yueyue nodded, but her hands on her knees couldn't help but tightly grasp the skirt: "Actually, I hate this feeling, that weird, indescribable feeling."
"Indescribable?" Zhao Changyuan frowned: "Why is it indescribable?"
"Maybe it's a premonition." After saying that, Gong Yueyue stood up and said, "I just hope my feeling is wrong."
After saying that, she walked back to the house alone.
Lying on the bed fully clothed, Gong Yueyue could not help but eavesdrop on what was going on outside. Zhao Changyuan seemed to have been sitting at the table, motionless.
What is he thinking?
Tomorrow, even if they can climb over the cliff, what will they encounter?
"What words?"
"No matter what the result is, how about we try our best?"
"Okay." Zhao Changyuan nodded, walked over and held her hand, looking deeply into her eyes: "As you said, no matter what the result is, at least we tried hard."
"So." Gong Yueyue smiled brightly and felt much relieved: "I hope you can be happy."
"I will definitely be very happy." Zhao Changyuan took a step forward and hugged her: "Life is short, so you must be with the person you love most and do what you love most, and you will be very happy."
"Yes." Gong Yueyue nodded, her eyes full of smiles: "This way you can be very happy."
At that moment, they were connected and felt extremely happy.
"You don't have to worry about tomorrow's journey. Although the road ahead is difficult and dangerous, I believe you can make it through."
"I know." Gong Yueyue smiled and nodded: "If we do everything as you say, we will definitely see the future."
After discussing it with Zhao Changyuan, Gong Yueyue returned to the bedroom and lay down alone. However, she felt a lot more relaxed and soon fell asleep breathing evenly. Little did she know that Zhao Changyuan had been waiting outside the door alone all night.
The next morning, Gong Yueyue opened her eyes and walked out of the house. She saw snow all over her eyes and everything was white.
"Are you ready?" Zhao Changyuan came over: "It's very cold in the mountains, we must bring more things."
"Zhao Changyuan." Gong Yueyue suddenly took his hand: "I have an ominous feeling in my heart, can you not go up?"
"What's wrong?" Zhao Changyuan looked at her strangely: "You've already come here, why don't you go up?" (To be continued)
