C219 (2/2)
The days when she fell into the hands of the Wolf King, how did she manage to survive? However, the Wolf King …
Clenching her fists, she was still innocent and had not lost her virginity. As long as she was alive, it was fine. The moment he saw her, his heart was filled with joy and relief. When he realized that she was a girl, he didn't think too much about it. In his shock, he could only rejoice that he had gone there in time to rescue her.
That day was her fifteenth birthday, yet her body was covered in wounds and blood. She had experienced life and death in a foreign land and had almost lost her life.
That day, she had been extremely delicate and delicate. He had seen through her identity and had allowed her to personally bandage her with his bandages. She had acted so natural and unrestrained that she was not shy in the slightest.
That kind of her was different from others. He had never seen her before, and in his heart, there was an inexplicable sense of her beauty. He was willing to guard her, lower himself to the level of the marquis' great general, and clean her up personally and look after her.
If it weren't for that night when she suddenly shouted out those two words in her nightmare, perhaps everything would have been different.
Her eyes darkened as far as the eye could see, filled with darkness and surging waves. She honestly called out ”Mo Bai”, but there was no other explanation.
He did not ask, but that did not mean that he did not put it in his heart.
One of the two men stood by the window while the other stood outside the courtyard, both thinking about the same person.
Lu Keyu bitterly smiled. He raised his hand and used the silk handkerchief to wipe his forehead that was covered in blood. Pain entered his body, causing him to feel much more clear-headed. At this moment, he had already offered his allegiance to Gonggong as his master, even though the imperial edict had ordered the General Prefecture to be incorporated into the Jingbei Region, sealing Jing Bei and the Military Prefecture of Helian Manqiu.
However, he was very clear that Jing Bei was originally a land of grace, and the imperial edict to separate Jing Bei from the land of grace, to Helian Manqiu's shock, was a conspiracy and viciousness concealed within.
Was it in order to allay the suspicions of the Lord, to protect the military and civilian forces of the Military State and the Military State, or was it in order to admire the Lord, that Helian Manqiu was willing to give up her feudal fiefdom and her high position and follow the Lord?
Or could it be because she now had a lord in her heart?
Sighing lightly, like the hero of the Lord, a peerlessly handsome man in his prime, how many girls would not like him?
Besides, they had been together all the way from the North, day and night, and her life had been saved by the Lord.
He was a rare general, a famous general of the Great Hengkong Empire. Because of his military exploits, he was bestowed the title of Jingbai General at a young age. He had no idea how many girls in the court were willing to be his dream lover, hoping to marry this great general.
Even the emperor and empress wanted to marry the princess off, but this honor didn't move the lord's heart.
If she already had feelings for her lord, if her lord also had feelings for her, the only thing he could do was to silently bless her and wish her happiness, not daring to have any other thoughts.
After all, the gap between their statuses had grown larger and larger. Right now, she had an additional, cold-blooded, and cold-blooded aura, as well as the murderous intent from after the bloody battles. It was no longer the young girl that he had known before, it was not the daughter of Helian Shan, but the young general, Helian Qingyu.
In the history of the Great Hengkong Empire, he was the youngest Count, the youngest Emissary and General!
Her splendor made him not dare to look at her directly, and he even felt ashamed from the bottom of his heart.
Perhaps, only that master of hers could be worthy of her!
Standing in front of the window, his cold face was like frozen jade, carrying the color of frost and snow. Had he hurt her last night?
Lu Keyu originally wasn't worth him taking another look, but because she had summoned him to ask him about what had happened that day. Today, he had finally lost control of himself. For her, he had lost all of his calm and rationality.
”Helian Manqiu …”
Gan Zhixuan softly spat out these two words, his heart pounding. His bright and resplendent eyes were filled with deep emotions, just like an endless ocean, right in front of his eyes.
What did he miss last night?
The light in her eyes was incredibly dark, and a hint of chilliness could be seen within. She looked into the distance. No matter what, she still had to stay by his side. After many probing attempts and the bestowment of the imperial edict, had there been any fluctuations in her heart?
If she could choose freely, was she willing to take over Jing Bei's fiefdom, or was she willing to abandon her rich fiefdom and prominent position, still stay by his side and be a general, following his orders and taking him as her master?
”Reporting, Lord. The Bloodsword requests an audience.”
Xue Jian knelt on one knee in the courtyard and looked at Gan Xixuan, who was standing by the window, with suspicion. He lowered his head and bowed.
”Come in.”
Gan Yuxuan turned around and walked back, leaving the window. In the end, he couldn't see her from here.
Helian Manqiu, since you must stay, and stay by my side, you can forget about leaving from now on!
”Lord, this is the gift letter that Teng Huayun sent to Helian Qingyu. Your subordinate has already checked it, and there are many secrets within it.”
Seeing that Gan Yuxuan did not reply, Gan Yuxuan did not reveal a surprised expression when he reported the gift in detail. These girls had already told him last night, so they laid in his arms and told him about it.
Was it because he had hurt her last night that she purposefully distanced herself from him with her cold demeanor?
