Chapter 21 Restoration
Chapter 21 Restoration
His fingers clenched and he grabbed something.
Ruan Yuan opened his eyes, the moment his vision changed from blurry to clear, he met a pair of deep eyes.
The man's unique domineering, deep, and inexplicable affection wandered around, attacking the eyes along the silk thread in the air.
Before he had time to think, his body had already reacted, wrapping his arms around the man's neck at an absurd speed, his heart felt sore, his eyes were hot, and with a howl, he pierced through the roof.
"what--!"
Ruan Yuan cried loudly like a child, wrapped his fingers around the top of the man's hair, tightened and let go, rubbed repeatedly,
"Jin Lang... Jin Lang..."
"Don't go, don't go..."
He buried his head in that person's shoulder, and tears fell on that person's shoulder mercilessly. Even if it was a dream, he would never let him go.
There was a sudden warmth around the waist, and a pair of hands wrapped around it. The familiar temperature invaded the heart, and thoughts and sorrows staggered and filled the throat.
"Jin Lang..." He trembled his voice, his arms trembled, "Rushua is dead, Zhihua, Zhihua wanted to save me..."
"Dead too, they are all dead..."
"Jin Lang, what should I do, ah—"
The pain jumped between his words, and then pierced Chi Jinnian's heart.
He tightened his arms and wrapped his arms around the man in his arms, then let go of him abruptly with a feeling of heat in his heart, stroked the back of his head with one hand, and pressed his lips hard under the red eyes of this little boy.
Accumulated longing gushes out, suppressed affection erupts, and the two absorb each other's pain with their lips almost frantically.
I don't know how long it took, the arms became tighter and tighter, and I was almost out of breath, and the pain was entwined and rising, and it was about to break through the sky.
Chi Jinnian let go of the little boy, pressed his head against his chest, and tightened his grip.
"What happened yesterday, you speak slowly."
Ruan Yuan's sobbing, which had been so hard to stop, started again. He stretched out a hand to grab the clothes on Chi Jinnian's chest, raised his eyes filled with sorrow, flushed,
"I said, will Jin Lang come back..."
"Will Jin Lang... save me like before...?"
Chi Jinnian saw that his face was much more haggard than before, and his whole body became thinner again. Thinking of Liu Siye spitting out a mouthful of blood in front of him, his heart was smashed to pieces by the invisible whip.
He was too scared, afraid that this person would lose the light in his eyes like Liu Siye, and then disappear suddenly.
"meeting."
He cupped the face of this small and delicate young man with one hand very preciously, his gaze was fixed on his pair of red eyes,
"This time, stay by my side."
Say no more, never loved.
Ruan Yuan also let go of the hand that was grasping the front of his chest, turned to caress his face, and raised a smile that was more sad than crying,
"The thing I regret the most is that I didn't have time to tell you that I lied to you."
"Jin Lang is... my favourite..."
Before he finished speaking, he seemed to have exhausted all his strength, leaning into Chi Jinnian's arms and closing his eyes, but his hands were tightly clutching his sleeves, as if he didn't want to wake up from this dream.
Chi Jinnian held him tighter, and lowered his head to press a kiss on the top of his hair.
"My lord."
There was a knock on the door, but Chi Jinnian didn't even look at it, and asked someone to come in in a low voice.
Gu Cong opened the door, the white clothes on his body were a little messy, with a few cuts, stained with someone's blood.
Chi Jinnian still hugged Ruan Yuan tightly and didn't let go at all.
"who is it."
"Go back to the prince, it's the seventh prince."
Chi Jinnian's black eyes dimmed a little, and a few sharp cold lights flashed.
"Arrogant mouse, you really think of yourself as a dragon."
"The big gift for Beidi, are you ready?"
Gu Cong took a sneak peek at Ruan Yuan's peaceful sleeping face, then retracted his gaze wisely,
"Go back to the prince, you are ready, you have already entered the palace."
"Okay." Chi Jinnian responded coldly.
"My lord, it's late at night." Gu Cong reminded softly.
"It's okay." Chi Jinnian didn't even move, but quietly looked at the sleeping man in his arms, "Go and rest."
"Yes." Gu Cong lowered his eyes, exited the room, and closed the door lightly.
-------
"A bunch of trash!"
One of Chi Chengqi's arms was slack, but his face was fierce. He sat on a chair and glared at a soldier.
"This is the soldier you chose!"
The soldier knelt on the ground, not daring to raise his head,
"Back to Qiye, I didn't expect... I didn't expect that person to be so powerful."
"How powerful, he is only one person!"
The doctor next to him moved his arm slightly, and Chi Chengqi frowned in pain and snorted, as if he was going to eat the soldier alive.
"So many of you can't protect me, why raise you!"
"Go away! Go back to farming!"
The soldier repeatedly begged for mercy, stepped back, and quickly disappeared outside the door.
Chi Chengqi closed his eyes and opened them again, looked at his limp arm, and inexplicably, that person's face appeared in front of him again.
Obviously she has a gentle appearance, but after the princess left, she fought like a tiger, approaching him straight, staring at a pair of terrifying eyes,
"The seventh prince just now, which hand touched the princess."
As soon as he finished speaking, his arm fell into his territory, with a click, followed by a shocking wail of ghosts and gods from his throat.
Suspicious... Suspicious.
At this time, there are still people protecting Princess Jin. Could it be that Chi Jinnian is not dead?
Chi Chengqi took a deep breath, and at the same time he opened his eyes wide, a servant hurried in and knelt down on the ground,
"Qi Ye, the empress has sent a message, asking me to enter the palace for a secret talk."
Chi Chengqi looked at him expressionlessly, a few drops of cold sweat broke out from the pain on his forehead,
"You go back to her and say that I'm sick and need to rest for a few days."
"Then prepare the horse and return to Huajing."
----------
When Ruan Yuan opened his eyes again, there was nothing beside the bed.
He sat up, looked at this familiar inn room, threw off the quilt suddenly, opened the door and ran out without shoes on.
"Jin Lang...Jin Lang..."
I promised to come back.
While calling unconsciously, Ruan Yuan stumbled on the verandah on the second floor, pushing open one door after another, each time being heavier than the last one, but no one was seen.
Sure enough, that person, that kiss, that embrace was just a dream.
He felt that he was completely awake, and when he turned around with tears in his eyes, his eyes fell over the railing and fell on the man with the sword by the bamboo forest.
The tall and straight figure swung his sword like rain, and a bamboo leaf fell down. He felt his gaze in the bamboo leaf, stopped his movements and turned around.
The two eyes met, startled a bird in the air, and neither of them flinched this time.
"Jin Lang!"
Ruan Yuan exclaimed, holding on to the railing with one hand, grabbing the hem of the skirt with the other hand, and ran down the stairs, and the man also threw the sword and ran towards him, the two figures met at the end of the stairs , In each other's hearts knocked out fiery trees and silver flowers.
"This time, I am awake..."
Ruan Yuan's head automatically stuck to Chi Jinnian's chest, and he grabbed his shoulders with both hands,
"Jin Lang, you're really back."
"It doesn't matter how you came back, it doesn't matter if it's a human or a ghost," Ruan Yuan sniffed and whispered softly, "It's good to be back."
Chi Jinnian laughed, let go of the little boy, raised his hand to wipe away the pearls hanging from his eyes,
"Be bold and call me a demon."
After speaking, he hugged the man again,
"Forget it, now I'm not the second prince, not the king of Jin, let's just be a demon to please you."
Ruan Yuan stood on tiptoe, raised his chin, and gently pressed his lips against the side of Chi Jinnian's face, a tear rolled down his face with joy,
"Then I am no longer Princess Jin."
Chi Jinnian turned his face to the side, and put his lips against his,
"As long as you want, always."
--------
Li Wuyue saw Xiao Luo hurried past with the two servants, so she held her arm, and smiled at the corner of her mouth,
"In such a hurry, where are you going?"
Xiao Luo waved his hand to let the two servants go first, and stopped in front of Li Wuyue,
"The prince ordered us to prepare water, and said that the princess will take a bath."
Li Wuyue's pupils trembled, and soon regained her composure, and said lightly,
"in this way."
"You go and get the bath grass that the prince likes most."
"My lord and my concubine are supposed to be together."
Xiao Luo suddenly realized and nodded, and quickened his pace to the pharmacy, leaving Li Wuyue standing there, looking at the dark bamboo forest in the distance, as if he saw the figure of the man walking out that day.
He was holding a person firmly in his hands, and his eyes were locked on the face of the person in his arms, unable to move away.
A person who has always been cruel and ruthless, turns out that there will be a day when he is reluctant to let go.
--------
The bathroom is foggy, and the hot water is already prepared in the bathtub.
Ruan Yuan came in with a comb, took off his coat and put it on the screen, but he heard a person's footsteps approaching.
He poked his head over the screen and met those calm eyes.
Ruan Yuan tore off the jacket he had put together, subconsciously panicking,
"I thought it was me taking a bath..."
Before he finished speaking, he saw a hand reaching out gently, pulling the coat from his hand and putting it on the screen again.
"It's you taking a bath."
"I join in the fun."
As Chi Jinnian said, his eyes moved down, from his reddish cheeks to his fair neck, one hand touched his shoulder, and he took off his loose shirt, the plump concubine smiled and took off out of the shell.
Ruan Yuan's ears turned red with shame, but his big eyes full of water vapor looked at the man without hesitation, watching him lower his eyes, hug him by the waist, and walk towards the large bathing pool.
Chi Jinnian carefully placed the young master in his arms by the side of the bath, reached in to test the water temperature, and then filled the palm of his hand with water and wiped the young master's body one by one to help him get used to it.
The young man didn't speak, he let his palm gently brush over every inch of his skin, then slowly sat down in the bath, looking back at him with big watery eyes, as if he wanted to say something.
"You turn around."
Chi Jinnian took the comb next to him, and the young man turned around obediently as he said, and sat in the water with his back against the wall of the bath.
The man outside the bath was wearing a light shirt, brushing the young man's long hair, and the young man in the water closed his eyes, both of them were silent.
Water vapor rose around the body, and it seemed that there was a sound.
"This bath herb smells so good."
"It was matched by Li Wuyue."
Ruan Yuan's eyes were still closed, letting the noble prince comb his hair,
"Miss Li is ingenious and beautiful, why doesn't Jin Lang take her into the mansion."
Chi Jinnian didn't stop combing his hair, his eyes were still calm,
"She wanted to study medicine, but her parents refused, so she begged me to take her out, but she didn't ask me to take her into the house."
"Women in the palace have a purpose and are used by others. She has no reason to enter the palace."
Ruan Yuan pursed his lips, thinking of Li Wuyue's gentle face, the words he wanted to say stuck in his throat.
Li Wuyue has feelings for Wang Ye, even he knows it.
"What about the prince?"
Ruan Yuan opened his eyes, seized the space where Chi Jinnian was stunned, turned around, met his steady eyes,
"Why is the prince in the inn, why doesn't he go back to the palace?"
"The emperor killed his son. No one can save him. I can only save myself."
"I've been working on this bureau for eight years."
Chi Jinnian put the comb beside him, lifted the little man's long hair with both hands and placed it behind his ears,
"My father is an emperor and my mother is a noble concubine. One wants me to die, and the other knows that I am going to die."
"So to me, human life is the least valuable thing."
Ruan Yuan looked into the vicissitudes in his eyes, the dust and sand of those memories seemed to rush out, turning this place into a desolate desert.
"Jin Lang said," Ruan Yuan took his broad hand with both hands, "there is still so much joy in the world, and the most important thing is that you are not yet at the age of dying."
He sniffed, "I care about your life."
"So Jin Lang, why are you hiding it from me?"
Chi Jinnian's eyes trembled for the first time and then lowered. The wolf king, who was so proud of all heroes, lowered his head in front of the sika deer as his prey.
Then he took off the clothes on his body, stepped into the bathtub under the aggrieved gaze of the little boy, hugged him in his arms, pressed him against the edge of the bathtub, and let go again.
Leaning over and approaching, the lips touched lightly, as if they were far away, with a thousand kinds of tenderness and all kinds of feelings, and the rising water vaporized a sentence,
"I don't know, you care."
I thought, you hate me.
After speaking, I saw the villain close his eyes, the desire in his throat rose, his soft lips were covered with rubbing, one hand pinched his slender waist under the water, and the other hand spread out to catch him Head thrown back.
"Jin Lang, the pagoda tree blooms, I..."
"I thought I'd never see you again..."
Two tears spilled from the corners of the young man's closed eyes, his voice trembled slightly, and he inserted one hand into Chi Jinnian's hair and rubbed it.
Chi Jinnian lowered his head and bit his shoulder lightly, and the young master's hand tightened suddenly.
"Now that you see it, don't think about leaving."
I don't know how long it has passed, Chi Jinnian picked up the limp young man and walked out of the pool, with two tears left in the corners of his eyes, strange but not strange.
His mind sank quietly in the corner of his eyes, and then the young master reached out to wipe it, and the gray layer covering the tip of his heart also became clear.
