Shen Ziyan felt that Dashan's pace was a bit slow. Although there was a hint of hostility towards his love rival on his face, he was still walking at a slow pace.
No matter what kind of kindness Dashan had towards Shen Ziyan, Shuangxi was also the woman Shen Ziyan loved. Naturally, Shen Ziyan would not have a good attitude towards Dashan at this time.
However, Dashan, who was immersed in the joy of Shuangxi coming to see him, did not feel the vague hostility on Shen Ziyan.
Until Shen Ziyan took him into an inn.
When he arrived at the door of an inn, Shen Ziyan said with a dark face: "Xi'er is waiting for you here."
As he said that, he actually moved into the guest room next to him.
At this moment, Dashan, who was slow to react, finally came to his senses and explained: "Zi Yan, the village chief and I said why the two families are already one family, it was just a temporary measure."
Shen Ziyan stopped for a moment, and after a moment, he just nodded slightly, but still walked into another inn.
He didn't know what the next conversation between Xi'er and Dashan would be... or what would happen.
But he knew that no matter what it was, he had no reason to stop it at this time. A man who loved Xi'er so much, as long as Xi'er was willing, he... could only drink the bitter wine by himself.
He, Shen Ziyan, was not a man who would use his beloved woman to escape from military service, nor was he a man who would make his beloved woman sad.
If Xi'er is really moved by Dashan and has feelings for Dashan because of this incident, all Shen Ziyan can do is love Xi'er even more.
Let Xi'er care more about herself and give herself more love in her future life.
Dashan stood outside the guest room for a long time, and finally plucked up the courage to open the door.
Xi'er, who was wearing a light pink dress, was sitting next to the table with tea sets, lowering her head and thinking about something.
At this time, when he saw Dashan coming in, he raised his head and looked at Dashan in his bright eyes, as if there was mist in his eyes. Dashan's heart tightened.
Dashan felt a little unnatural, so he took two steps forward, turned around and closed the door, then stood still at the door.
This resolute man would not be afraid even when facing the ferocious brown bear. But when facing Xi'er, he was always cautious, as if he was afraid of crushing her.
Shuangxi looked at Dashan's somewhat dry lips, stretched out his delicate hands, poured Dashan a cup of tea, and then said softly: "Brother Dashan, aren't you tired from standing? Come over and drink a cup of thirst-quenching tea."
Dashan said this when he saw Shuangxi, so he walked to the tea table and sat down on a stool across from Shuangxi.
When he took the cup of tea from Shuangxi's hand, his rough fingers accidentally touched Shuangxi's slender white fingers, and both of them shrank their hands unnaturally.
The full cup of tea swayed and almost spilled. Fortunately, Dashan's hand was faster. The teacup in his hand moved again and he quickly caught the water that spilled from the medicine.
It can be seen from this move that Dashan still has some real skills in his hands.
Dashan put the tea cup to his mouth unnaturally and took a sip. He was actually very thirsty. How could he not be thirsty after walking all the way from the village to the town?
But he didn't drink the cup of tea in one go. One reason was because Xi'er poured it for him, and he was somewhat reluctant to part with it.
Another reason, of course, is that - probably because of Father Shen, the Shen brothers all have a bookish air about them, and they do all kinds of etiquette very well. On the other hand, he and Quanzi are very rude. .
Sometimes he wonders why Xi'er likes the Shen brothers but avoids himself and Quanzi like snakes and scorpions? He just thinks that maybe he is not as good as the Shen brothers here.
However, with Dashan’s temperament, it’s really weird to do this kind of savoring thing.
Shuangxi, who was originally feeling heavy, couldn't help but smile when he saw such a big mountain.
This smile was seen by the mountain, and it was like a mountain flower in full bloom, so brilliant that it fascinated him.
Xi'er's black hair was half tied up today, and a strand of soft hair hung slightly from her ears, which actually made her whole person look more charming.
Dashan, who was already intoxicated, became a little crazy.
Dashan looked at the woman in front of him, half of his heart was happy that she came to see him, allowing him to see the person he wanted to see the most before leaving, but the other half was full of sadness.
He also wants to be by Xi'er's side all the time, just like Shen Ziyan!
But he knew that even if he stayed, Xi'er might not need his protection. Instead, he would always worry about Shen Ziyan's departure, fearing that he would not be happy in his heart.
Instead of doing this, it would be better for him to replace Shen Ziyan. He knew that this man also loved Xi'er very much and would definitely hold Xi'er in his hands and love her.
Shuangxi's crisp, sentimental voice sounded in this somewhat frozen atmosphere: "Brother Dashan, you... why did you go on an expedition for Ziyan?"
Dashan felt the care in Shuang Xi's tone, and a hot emotion surged in his heart. He thought, as long as Xi'er's caring words made him go to the sword and into the sea of fire, what's the harm?
Dashan's voice was unique, with a hint of roughness and heartiness: "Xi'er, good men have ambitions in all directions. Of course I want to go on an expedition."
Of course Shuangxi would not believe Dashan's obviously perfunctory lie. How did Shuangxi know that Dashan was telling a lie? Just look at the unnatural look on Dashan's face and the hard tone.
The thing Dashan is worst at is telling lies, especially to Shuangxi. He is already the most stupid person, and besides speaking against his will, people can naturally tell them apart at a glance.
Shuangxi knew that Dashan definitely didn't want to put a burden on her heart, and felt as if she owed him, so she said this, and at that moment, she felt a little more moved in her heart.
Dashan noticed that Shuangxi lowered his head, but the strand of black hair on his forehead seemed to be in the way, so he couldn't help but stretched out his hand and helped Shuangxi tuck the strand of black hair behind his ear.
Shuangxi's body stiffened. Such an action was a bit too intimate.
Suddenly, the atmosphere became a little awkward.
Dashan also realized that he seemed to have crossed a certain boundary. His hand was hanging in mid-air, neither advancing nor retreating.
Shuangxi moved back for a moment, and then spoke quickly to break the weird atmosphere: "Brother Dashan, I understand what you mean. This time, I really want to thank you."
When Shuangxi said this, he became sincere: "I will definitely remember all the kindness you have done to me. This time on the expedition... if you are... if it is true..." If you can come back, I will be your wife. .
Shuangxi originally thought so, but when he said this, it felt like it was stuck in his throat and he couldn't say it out.
Although Dashan sounded a little stupid, he was not stupid. Looking at Shuangxi lowering his head with a slightly unnatural expression, he naturally knew what Shuangxi wanted to say.
Dashan quickly explained in embarrassment: "Xi'er, you must have known what I told the village chief about our two families becoming one family, right?"
Shuangxi nodded and looked at the mountain, not knowing what to say.
Dashan then slowed down his tone and explained: "That... is just so that I can take Ziyan on the expedition, and you don't have to take the expedient measures told by the commander of the army seriously."
Although he, Dashan, was thinking about Double Happiness, he always wanted to truly integrate into Xi'er's life and become her husband, even one of her husbands.
But he would never use this matter of conscription to force Shuangxi.
He will not coerce the Shen brothers because of his gratitude to the Shen family for this matter. What he wants is not Shuangxi's body, nor the name of Shuangxi's husband, but Shuangxi's heart.
If Shuangxi refuses to give her heart to him, then he will keep silently guarding her until she is willing to give him a little love, or his love will be exhausted.
Of course, Dashan knew that this second situation would not happen. His feelings for Xi'er, like the wine hidden deep in the ground, would only become stronger and stronger.
When Shuangxi heard Dashan say this, his heart felt a little sour: "Brother Dashan..."
Shuangxi was a little speechless. Dashan was so affectionate that she didn't know how to repay him.
This kind of love is no less than that of anyone in the Shen family, and it makes Shuangxi even somewhat unable to escape.
Shuangxi couldn't deny her feelings, she already had feelings for him.
From the moment Dashan fought with the brown bear for himself, the brown bear could kill him at any time, but he still rushed forward without hesitation to protect himself.
Maybe every girl will have a heroic dream in her heart, imagining that there is an unparalleled hero who will protect herself on horseback and with a sword.
Although Dashan is not an unparalleled hero, he can do anything for her.
Even if I don't want to take this life.
No, maybe it didn't start when Dashan rescued her from the brown bear. Maybe it started when Dashan was hungry and gave her a rabbit. Maybe it started when Quanzi wanted to rape her, and Dashan suddenly appeared and took her.
Start by walking to Quanzi.
Maybe he always stared at her silently with his calm eyes...
There are too many unexplainable things. This man always protects Double Happiness in his unique way.
Maybe his love is not as passionate and straightforward as others, maybe his love carries too much forbearance, but there is no doubt that he loves Shuangxi deeply.
Shuangxi looked at this man who was as tall as a green mountain, and her tone softened, with a hint of tenderness, just like she used to talk to Shen Ziyan, and said: "Brother Dashan, after all these years, you must... be stable.
return."
Shuangxi paused for a moment, then spoke with difficulty: "I...wait for you."
As soon as these words came out, Shuangxi breathed a sigh of relief. Although she knew that her decision might hurt the Shen family, she was unwilling to let Dashan go on a long journey for herself.
