Ruolan knelt down and finally put her hands on the thin face.
She had considered him a younger brother.
Now, she convinced herself in her heart that she regarded him as her younger brother.
"Sister, after all, I am not young anymore. I have reached the age to get married. My sister's life-long affairs have been solved. You should be happy for your sister!"
Ruolan held back her tears, forced a smile, and gently held up her drooped head.
Jiang Yichen did not dare to disobey, and slowly raised his head following the gentle force. Although his eyesight had been blurred by tears, he could not hide the beautiful face in front of him.
It's just that this face has lost some girlish beauty and has more mature charm.
"Happy..." He seemed to see the beautiful woman turn into foam, he felt like he was swallowing gall and his heart was like a knife.
Happy?
The remaining sanity added a pinch of salt to Jiang Yichen's torn heart.
The severe pain started in my heart and spread throughout my body, and the word "happy" kept echoing in my ears.
Everything was telling him that this was a fait accompli. No matter how unwilling he was, no matter how regretful he was, it was all in vain.
He began to try hard to tell himself that he should really be happy for Ruolan and bless her!
The word "blessing" was so brief, yet so heavy, that he could hardly say it out.
Either they have been separated from their biological parents since childhood, or they are all accustomed to loneliness.
When the two met for the first time, their awkward glances and uncomfortable movements only narrowed the inner distance between them.
Since then, the two have quietly buried each other in the most private place in their hearts.
When he was confused due to murder, she did not hesitate to take risks and stayed with him silently.
When Yin Li was rude to her, he subconsciously stood up to protect her and unconsciously exposed his unique skills.
Then on a thunderstorm night, he hugged her silently.
That was the moment when the two of them were closest to each other, and it also meant that the two of them were willing to give themselves to each other without reservation.
It was a pity that at that time, he had just left Xishan Island and was determined to make a career in the world and become the old man's right-hand man, so he did not choose to stop here.
But with her blessing, he came out again.
Later, Xishan Island was brutally massacred, and Yin Niang's death made him sink for a time.
Although she couldn't help herself, she always tried her best. With the help of Murong Jing, she made a special trip to see him to accompany him in sorrow and drunkenness.
When he finally woke up, he had been avoiding those close to him, especially her, because he was afraid of losing.
It wasn't until we met again now that he realized that he had never let her go.
Sometimes, you love the deepest, but you hide the furthest away.
It was only at this moment that Jiang Yichen suddenly realized that Ruolan had been silently accompanying her and doing her best for him all along.
And he never made Ruolan wait for him, nor did he make any promises.
He is too selfish!
That's right, since you have chosen to be happy with your grudges, why bother pursuing the love of your children? This is no longer something you can demand.
The spring breeze blows and the drizzle falls.
Jiang Yichen's knees were numb, but he didn't want to move an inch.
He wanted to punish himself in this way, and only in this way could he feel better.
When Ruolan saw this, she couldn't bear it, but she didn't know how to persuade her.
The two were silent for a long time.
"Madam, the rain is getting heavy... Tweety, Tweety is here to bring an umbrella." At some point, Tweety had already arrived beside the two of them.
After Cui'er brought Murong Kang back to the carriage and sedan, she saw that it was raining outside.
I was worried that Ruolan would catch a cold in the rain, so I quickly took out my umbrella and wanted to help Ruolan back to the carriage.
It could be seen that Hei Wuchang, named Jiang Chengzi, was kneeling on the ground, and his wife was also half-kneeling on the ground. Cui'er couldn't help but be dumbfounded, staring blankly at the two of them with tears in their eyes, not knowing what to do.
Seeing Ruolan holding Jiang Chengzi's face affectionately, no matter how stupid Cui'er was, she could tell that there was an unforgettable past between the two of them.
If she were not worried about Madam's health, she would never bother them to rekindle their old relationship.
After hearing this, Ruolan finally retracted her hand and stood up to take the umbrella.
Before Ruolan could say thank you, Cui'er had already run away, leaving only a voice that was almost swallowed up by the drizzle, "Tui'er went to take care of the second young master."
Ruolan glanced gratefully in the direction where Cui'er left, and when she turned around, she saw Jiang Yichen looking back at her.
She smiled slightly, then squatted down and continued to stay with him for a while.
However, Jiang Yichen stood up suddenly, held her hand, took her umbrella, and prevented her from squatting down.
She could feel his hands trembling and they were cold.
"Are you pregnant?" Jiang Yichen asked softly with a very uncertain tone.
Ruolan couldn't help but stiffen when she heard this. She saw that Jiang Yichen didn't know about this and didn't want to make him sad anymore, so she told her unintentionally. Unexpectedly, he found out after all.
It must have happened that when he stood up just now, his fur coat opened for a moment, allowing him to see his slightly bulging abdomen.
Ruolan had no choice but to answer truthfully: "Yeah."
Jiang Yichen said: "Second Young Master Murong, how are you treating me?"
When Leng Buding was asked this question, Ruolan was a little confused and said: "Very good."
Jiang Yichen suddenly grabbed Ruolan's cold hand. He tried hard to provide her with warmth, but found that his own hand was not necessarily warmer.
Ruolan's body trembled slightly, she was obviously a little surprised by Jiang Yichen's sudden behavior.
Perhaps deep down in every girl's heart, there is always hope that there will be someone who can stand up to protect her directly and domineeringly when she is wronged.
Ruolan felt warm in her heart, but in an instant the sweetness was replaced by a heavy bitterness.
After all, he came too late and she couldn't wait for him.
Jiang Yichen said: "He is sorry for you?"
His tone was a little stiff, because he had gradually calmed down, gradually become sober, and gradually discovered many things that were contrary to normal.
Eyes facing each other.
His eyes were full of remorse and love.
There was only sigh and bitterness in her beautiful eyes.
Jiang Yichen said softly: "Since you chose to forget, there is no need to mention it again."
He could already guess that this was something unspeakable, and he didn't want Ruolan to think about it again and be hurt again.
Ruolan smiled in relief. Over the past few months, she had convinced herself to face it calmly. Now she was just bringing up old things again. What was the difficulty for her?
"Xiao Chen'er has really grown up a lot. You used to dare not look at your sister like this."
"In the past, everything was written on your face. Anyone could tell what was going on in your mind at a glance."
"Now you, nothing can be hidden from your eyes."
"Even if I don't tell you, you will always go and find out everything, otherwise you will feel uneasy."
"Why wouldn't my sister want to see Xiao Chen'er unhappy?"
Ruolan was talking and smiling, as if she was telling how she watched the younger brother in front of her grow up.
Jiang Yichen knew that Ruolan wanted to relax the atmosphere, so he responded with a smile.
Seeing this, Ruolan said slowly: "That matter has passed."
"Yeah." Jiang Yichen understood that Ruolan hoped that he would not cause trouble for Murong Kang.
Ruolan said: "You must also know that in the past few months, the world has been calm and peaceful, but secretly, in addition to preparing for the Three Hundred Flowers Battle in March, they are also constantly testing each other."
"At this time of hiring, the Daoyi Alliance is short of major generals and has no one to use. Of course, this has long been an open secret. Otherwise, it would not have been in the embarrassing situation of being attacked from both sides over the years."
"Brother Murong has been devoting himself wholeheartedly to the work of the alliance since he recovered from his serious injury a year ago, but he is still unable to do anything else."
"About four months ago, there was an errand near Gusu. Brother Murong was in Wudang, and thinking that nothing would go wrong near the city of Gusu, he sent a secret message home, and the second young master
Murong Kang will do it for you."
"Of course, the reason why they are allowed to participate is because Brother Murong has asked the old man for permission earlier. The Murong family has always believed that the Dao and Righteous Alliance owes them a great debt of gratitude, especially when they rescued Brother Murong in Longyuan Gorge, the Dao and Righteous Alliance suffered heavy losses. Murong
Everyone in the family is always looking for opportunities to repay the Yi Alliance. Among them, the second young master Murong is the most proactive."
"Before, he has helped Brother Murong successfully carry out two missions in Jiangning County and around Gusu City."
"I thought I would be able to do it easily this time, but unexpectedly, on the way back, I was spotted by the red-clothed disciples Sha Qing and Hong Yue."
"There happened to be no one in Gusu City at that time. When I received the message from Sister Ling, I had to disguise myself and go out of the city to rescue him."
"Fortunately, this guy is not that useless. With his familiarity with the terrain, he has been dealing with Sha Qing and the others for a long time. When I arrived, I was only hit by Hong Yue's poisonous needle on my shoulder. In desperation, I used a dagger to
Half a piece of flesh was cut off from his shoulder. Although he fainted from the pain, he still held back and remained silent."
"I changed his clothes and relied on the golden cicada's escape strategy to mislead Sha Qing and the others to pursue their direction and temporarily escape from danger."
"He was not seriously injured, and the poison was not completely removed. To be on the safe side, I took him back to Yichunyuan first."
"In those few days, he stayed in my room to recuperate. Every evening, Sister Ling would walk over to deliver medicine and help take care of him for a while."
"In the first few days, he was mostly in a drowsy state due to the toxins from the poisonous needle."
"On the fourth night, under the influence of the medicine, I finally got better."
"It was also late that night," Ruolan suddenly paused, "There was a thunderstorm..."
When Jiang Yichen heard this, he couldn't help but feel sad. He could already imagine what would happen next.
Ruolan continued to talk, and he could only hold her hand tightly to give her this little bit of safety.
Ruolan smiled bitterly and said, "He had good intentions and wanted to comfort me, but when he got closer, he suddenly became malicious and did that ridiculous thing."
Beast!
Jiang Yichen's body trembled suddenly, and he roared in his heart!
Although he had expected the general situation, when he heard it with his own ears, he still couldn't suppress the anger in his heart.
He let go of Ruolan's hand, ready to end the life he had just saved.
Unexpectedly, before he could move a step, the delicate body in front of him hugged him tightly.
"It's all over... He treats me very well now."
Jiang Yichen couldn't move. He felt the heartbeat of the person in his arms. He was so close to her, but he couldn't get any closer.
He hugged each other and looked at the peach fairy tree drooping in the breeze and drizzle, with two lines of tears falling.
