He suddenly grinned, and his eyes, which were a little weak just now, suddenly became extremely clear and extremely soft.
He opened his mouth and she fed him the porridge one bite at a time. As he ate, his handsome black eyes stared at her intently.
Thinking of the scene with her on the deck, he began to feel itchy.
She fed the last mouthful of porridge into his mouth, and was about to get up and leave, but he reached out to hold her back.
"Mu'er, chat with me."
His words made her heart start to beat violently.
Seeing his stubborn look, she smiled bitterly,
"I'll put the bowl on the table and then talk to you. That's okay, right?"
"Okay, you are not allowed to leave, or I will jump into the sea and feed the sharks."
"Don't talk nonsense."
She frowned and glared at him, turned around and put the bowl on the table, then turned back and sat on the edge of the stool, looking at him with her lips pursed.
"Tell me, what do you want to say?" She looked at him pretending to be cold.
"Just looking at you is enough." He looked at her with a smile, then moved his body inwards.
"Sit on the bed," he patted the side of the bed, "lean here, your waist is tired from sitting on the round stool."
She looked at the seat he gave up and shook her head, "No need, it's good to sit here."
Seeing that she refused, he did not persist anymore. Instead, he put his hands under his head and looked at her with a pair of deep and lively eyes.
"Mu'er..."
"Call me Su Mu'er." She couldn't help but tremble when she heard his voice and address. She was not used to someone calling her such an affectionate name.
"I like to call you that." He pouted, looking reluctant.
Su Muer frowned and looked at him, her eyes full of helplessness.
"up to you."
She didn't want to argue with him, so just let him call if he wanted to. Anyway, she wouldn't lose anything.
"Mu'er, I like you, I really do."
He suddenly took his hand out of the quilt and held her hand tightly, "Don't reject me, okay?"
She wanted to shake her off, but he said "ouch".
"What’s wrong with you?"
"It hurts. You shook me hard just now, and my head hurts."
He was pretending. Su Muer knew he was pretending, but she didn't expose him. It was true that he contracted the cold because he was saving himself.
"We are not suitable." Her voice was as cold as the frost on a winter night, which made his heart tighten.
"No, don't use the reason that I am a member of the royal family to reject me. If it is because of this, I can sever ties with the royal family, as long as you don't ignore me."
Hearing what he said, she was stunned for a moment, then sneered,
"You have royal blood flowing in your bones, how can you just put it aside casually?"
"So, if I can distance myself from the royal family, you will agree to be with me?"
His expression suddenly brightened, and his eyes were full of expectation when he looked at her.
Su Mu'er shook her head helplessly, "Let's talk about these things later. I made the decision the day Doudou was born. I will not get married. I want to raise Doudou well and let the Su family live well."
"I can raise Doudou with you, and I can also take care of your family with you."
His tone was a little anxious and his voice became high-pitched.
"Don't you care about Doudou? Do you want to raise children for others?"
She suddenly raised her eyes and looked at him.
Ye Shihan shook his head without thinking, "I like Doudou. He is not someone else's child. He will be my son from now on."
He actually wanted to tell her that he already knew that Doudou was his son, but he still didn't say it out loud. He wanted to wait for her to tell him personally.
His words moved Su Muer a little bit. If the original owner who was not dead heard his words, would he go crazy with joy?
She lowered her eyebrows and smiled, "You hated me so much five years ago, why do you like me now? Is it just because I'm not as ugly as before?"
Thinking of how she looked before, she felt a little disgusted.
"No, your appearance is another aspect. I think your temperament has also changed. You have become so strong that it makes people feel distressed, you have become so stubborn and cute, and you have become something that makes me feel like you are too high to reach."
Having said this, he squeezed her hand tighter and looked at her with eyes full of autumn.
"Mu'er, let me take care of you and Doudou from now on, okay?"
His voice suddenly became gentle, so gentle that it could squeeze out water.
Su Muer was almost moved by him, but then she came to her senses and warned herself that she would never fall into this trap.
She raised her eyes and smiled softly at him.
"Give me time to think about it. At least I don't want to think about it now."
"Well, I'll wait for you."
His flowing blue eyes suddenly became affectionate,
"If you don't agree in your whole life, I will wait for you all my life and I will never marry someone else."
His words shocked her for a while, and she shook her head quickly.
"Ye Shihan, don't put so much pressure on me. I admit that I like you, but my heart can't accept you and your status, so please don't force me."
"This is not forcing you or putting pressure on you. I am doing this willingly. Even if you and I die of old age and you still don't accept me in your heart, I won't blame you."
His eyes were filled with affection, while hers were filled with tears.
Seeing her relaxed expression, he stood up and sat up, pulling her to his side and holding her in his arms.
She leaned over his shoulder, feeling an indescribable feeling in her heart.
For so many years, she was really tired and lonely by herself. There was nothing else in her life except her relatives and servants.
His embrace made her feel warm and safe. From the moment he risked his life and jumped into the sea to save her, from the moment he hugged and kissed her on the deck, she seemed to like being held by him.
The feeling of being there.
He put his chin on her hair, rubbed her back tightly with both hands, and held her tightly, as if he wanted to rub her into his bones before he would give in.
However, she did not stay in his room in the end. She did not want to cross the last line of defense with him, and Ye Shihan did not embarrass her. What he wanted was not her person, but her heart, so he had to wait until she
The day he willingly handed her over to him.
But from today on, he turned into a coquettish little man in front of her.
Three days later, they got off the boat and arrived at the northern border.
Now that there is no horse, they can only walk. Fortunately, the distance from here to the nearest city of Jiangzhou is only about an hour.
After experiencing this life and death, several people had a lingering feeling of fear after landing ashore.
Therefore, at this moment, no one spoke. Ye Shihan and Su Muer were in front, Liu Hai, Xiao Wu, and A Liang followed closely behind.
When he arrived in Jiangzhou City, Ye Shihan directly ordered Liu Hai to take his cards and go to the Jiangzhou government office to ask for five horses. Originally, he wanted four horses, but Su Muer didn't agree. She didn't want to go with him at first.
Secondly, the road further back becomes more difficult. If a horse rides two people, the horse will inevitably get tired.
"Stay here today, go out to buy some things to keep out the cold in the afternoon, and hit the road tomorrow."
Ye Shihan stood at the door of the inn and whispered to her.
