The early morning light filtered in from the window and scattered on the windowsill.
The room in the inn was very quiet. The people on the bed were sleeping peacefully, while the people who were awake sat beside the bed, motionless and silent, even breathing carefully so as not to disturb anyone.
It's just that his eyes are somewhat focused on that person.
He had been watching her for a long time. If she kept sleeping, he would keep watching.
Sensing the sleeping girl's eyelashes suddenly moving, Mo Lian immediately stood up, moving faster than the wind. She left the bed in an instant, stood in front of the window, and extinguished the burning oil lamp on the table.
Huang Beiyue slowly opened her eyes. Her red and swollen eyes stared intently at the bed curtain above for a while, and then she slowly shifted her gaze to the young man in black standing beside the bed with his back to her.
"Mo..." He opened his mouth to speak, but because his throat was dry and hoarse, he couldn't say a single word.
Mo Lian turned around, as if he just knew she was awake, lowered her head, poured a cup of tea, brought it to the bedside, lifted her up, and fed her to drink.
In fact, she is not that fragile. A sleep is enough to restore her vitality and energy. She has always been a very physically strong person.
However, at this time, both she and Mo Lian were silent. Instead, they felt that no matter what they said or did, it was inappropriate, so it was better to just let nature take its course.
She drank a whole cup of tea, her throat was moistened, and she finally felt better.
She raised her head and met Mo Lian's eyes. She saw her red and swollen eyes in his eyes and felt extremely embarrassed for a moment.
She couldn't quite remember what happened yesterday. She was so sad at the time that her emotions could be said to have completely collapsed. When she fell off the back of the Ice Spirit Fantasy Bird, she was like a helpless person.
Like a capable child, he is at a loss.
If Mo Lian hadn't arrived at that time, she might have been doomed when Tian Kui caught her later.
But she was still very grateful to have such a embrace for her to rely on in that situation.
She lowered her head, pretending to smile relaxedly and said, "Long time no see, Mo Lian."
His heart ached with soreness, and he hurriedly said: "In the Guangyao Hall..."
As soon as he said it, he immediately stopped talking. He pretended not to notice her that time, why did he say it now?
Feeling sorry for his stupid mouth and tongue, he pursed his lips and stopped talking.
Huang Beiyue was startled, then laughed. Although he didn't recognize her that time in Guangyao Hall, she knew that he definitely recognized her.
Seeing his remorseful look, Huang Beiyue took out the platycodon flower jade pendant left by him from the ring, touched it in the palm of her hand, and said, "It's so beautiful. If you gave it to me, thank you."
Seeing the purple jade pendant appear, Mo Lian was a little flustered, stood up quickly, and wanted to leave.
"Mo Lian!" Huang Beiyue called out to her, "Since you have recognized me, why do you want to escape again and again? I have never blamed you!"
Mo Lian turned his back to her and was silent for a while, then said slowly: "I...send you back."
Huang Beiyue looked at the furnishings around the room and realized that this was within the territory of Nanyi Kingdom, and she suddenly felt a lot more at ease.
She put on her shoes and walked out of bed, walked up to him, and patted his shoulder, "I know that the person who will hurt me is not you. The real you will protect me."
Mo Lian was startled for a moment, then she raised her hand full of pity and gently stroked her face, "No, not anymore, never again."
