As soon as Qin Hong walked away, Lou Yan, who was sleeping while leaning against the door, opened his eyes instantly.
Manman stood aside, looking at Lou Yan innocently.
Lou Yan glanced at her and said coolly: "You want to help Commander Qin keep an eye on me?"
Manman: "...What did Commander Qin say? I didn't hear it."
Lou Yan nodded: "Be smart, you know what to say."
After saying that, he turned around, opened the door and entered the house.
Manman: "..."
The corners of Manman's mouth twitched, and his eyes were full of helplessness, and he muttered: "What did I do wrong...why was it that I was the one who got hurt in the end?"
She watched helplessly as the prince entered the room and closed the door. She didn't even dare to fart.
I just hope that Commander Qin will be able to keep his eyes open in the future and never ask her, a little undercover, to spy on the prince.
In the room, Lou Yan quickly walked around the screen and walked to the bed. Seeing the person on the bed with his eyes closed and breathing steadily, he thought Qin Zhen had fallen asleep.
He subconsciously breathed softly, stretched out his hand to straighten the quilt for her, and planned to stay on the footrest to watch over her. But just as he was about to sit down, the sleeping person suddenly opened his eyes and looked over.
Lou Yan was stunned and asked in surprise: "Aren't you asleep?"
Qin Zhen stared at Lou Yan and stretched out her hand towards him: "I can't sleep without you."
Lou Yan held that hand, and his heart melted when he heard these words.
It turns out that being needed and dependent on a loved one is such a feeling that it is simply addictive.
"I'm with you, don't be afraid." Lou Yan sat on the edge of the bed, holding Qin Zhu's hand in his hand, and whispered, "I'm not going anywhere, I'm right here."
Qin Zhen smiled: "Aren't you afraid that my father will know?"
"He has entered the palace."
"What if we find out?"
"The worst I can do is get beaten up, as long as I don't fight back." Lou Yan smiled and said softly, "It doesn't matter what he does to me, as long as I don't let him go."
When Qin Zhen needs him, he must be by Qin Zhen's side even if he dies.
He didn't want Qin Zhen to face her fear alone, he didn't want her to stay awake all night with her eyes open, and he didn't want her to be trapped in nightmares and cry every night... As long as Qin Zhen needs it, he has to be there, no matter what the price.
.
Qin Zhen looked at Lou Yan steadily for a while, then suddenly moved to the side and patted the place next to him.
Lou Yan: "...Isn't this not good?"
Qin Zhen said: "But you have been like this before."
Lou Yan: "..."
Before they were together, he could shamelessly take advantage of her, but now that they are together, he doesn't dare to be rude to each other anymore.
Seeing his hesitation, Qin Zhen said softly: "But, I want you to hold me."
As soon as Lou Yan heard this, his little hesitation was instantly thrown to the back of his mind. There was only one thought in his mind: She wanted me to hold her.
Not to mention hugging him, even if he wanted to kill him, he would cut off his head and offer it to him with both hands without hesitation.
Lou Yan lifted the quilt and lay down, then stretched out his arms to hold Qin Zhen into his arms, letting her lean against his chest.
Qin Zhen didn't hesitate, found a comfortable position in his arms and lay down, her hands wrapped around Lou Yan's waist.
Lou Yan's body was a little stiff, but his heart was warm.
This is the person he has always wanted to have in his dreams, and now she is lying in his arms obediently.
Lou Yan stroked her back step by step, coaxing in a low voice: "It's too late, go to sleep."
Qin Zhen leaned on his chest, and in her ears she could hear Lou Yan's heartbeat, beating again and again, a little too fast.
She moved closer, as if she wanted to get into his heart. Lou Yan tightened his arms in cooperation, making the two of them closer to each other.
They all felt that Qin Zhen was frightened, and she was afraid that she was not in a good state of mind and wanted to sleep, but in fact, she was more awake than ever at this moment.
She leaned against Lou Yan and asked softly: "Aren't you curious?"
Lou Yan was stunned: "What are you curious about?"
"I'm curious why I suddenly nodded and agreed," Qin Zhen said slowly, "After all, I just and sternly rejected you not long ago."
Lou Yan fell silent, and then said after a while: "To be honest, I'm not very curious. I don't care why you suddenly nodded and agreed, what you want to do, and what your purpose is. I don't care as long as you agree."
Lou Yan lowered his head and kissed her on the top of her head, and then said: "As long as you agree, as long as you enter my house, as long as you become the person you want, no matter why you agreed, I will never let you regret it."
He said this with great confidence.
No matter whether Qin Zhen loves him or not, he is not afraid. As long as Qin Zhen is by his side, he has the confidence to make Qin Zhen love him from the bottom of her heart.
Qin Zhen heard the meaning behind his words, and also knew that Lou Yan didn't think that she nodded because she liked him.
That's right, at such a special period, she suddenly nodded and agreed. If it were her, she wouldn't believe it, and would also suspect the other party's purpose.
Qin Zhen was silent for a while, then suddenly broke away from Lou Yan's arms and sat up.
Lou Yan was stunned for a moment, then sat up as well, looking a little cautious: "Did I...did I say the wrong thing?"
Qin Zhen shook her head and said to Lou Yan: "Take out the box on the bedside."
Lou Yan was startled, and when he looked back, he saw a wooden box placed beside the bed, next to the pillow.
Lou Yan didn't know why, so he obediently handed the wooden box to Qin Zhen.
Qin Zhen shook her head and didn't reach out to take it. She just said, "Open it."
Lou Yan: "..."
He looked at Qin Zhen and then took the wooden box back.
After looking down for a while, Lou Yan reached out and opened the wooden box. When he saw what was inside, Lou Yan was stunned.
He stared at those things for a while, his pupils trembling, and even the hand holding the wooden box trembled so much.
He looked at it for a long time, then raised his head to look at Qin Zhen, and said in disbelief: "These, these are all... mine?"
There were no rare treasures or major secrets in the wooden box, only a few strange rags.
Yeah, like rags.
A section of a sleeve that had been cut off, a bunch of hair tied with a red rope, a black hair tie... Several unrelated things were placed together, looking like rags.
But Lou Yan could see clearly that he had cut off the sleeves because he was afraid of waking Qin Zhen, and the hair was the same, and the black headband was what he used to tie her eyes...
Qin Zhen kept all these things that he had never cared about.
It is impossible for Lou Yan not to understand the meaning of this.
He looked at Qin Zhen, his eyes were sore and his heart ached.
Qin Zhen smiled and said softly: "Actually, I am a very timid person. I have been rejecting you before because I am a coward and I am afraid..."
Qin Zhen found that once she said something that was difficult to say, it didn't seem that difficult to say it again.
