Chapter 101 Sudden tenderness
Li Xiangjun had a slight smile on her lips.
The two suddenly became quiet. Ning Nanyou didn't say a word, staring at her for a while. Li Xiangjun seemed to have something to worry about, lowering her eyes and thinking about something.
"Yushuang." Ning Nanyou suddenly called out her nickname.
"Hmm?" Li Xiangjun responded subconsciously, then stood there in a daze.
Over the years, she has never heard these two words from him again.
He hadn't called her like this for a long time.
"At that time, my father forced you to marry Brother Wei Chongxi... Have you hated him over the years?" He suddenly asked about the old story.
Li Xiangjun's face froze, and the smile at the corner of her mouth immediately dissipated. She lowered her eyes and stared at her toes for a long time. She suddenly looked up at Ning Nanyou and said seriously: "I am for the sake of the Li family. If I don't marry Wei Cao... Maybe our Li family... will have no place to live now."
There was peace that had never reached the depths of her eyes. No one knew what was hidden after peace.
Under the long and scarlet sleeves covering his arms, Li Xiangjun held his hands tightly, and his fingertips turned gray and blue.
"Do you really think so?" Ning Nanyou took a step forward, looking at her with unfathomable eyes.
Li Xiangjun looked pale, raised her head and said, "So what if you hate it? What can I do with my uncle? My Li family was held in his hands back then... If I refused, what would happen to the Li family... You don't know..."
Ning Nanyou's eyebrows and eyes were covered with a layer of loss. He lowered his head and laughed at himself: "I thought... you would hate your father. If it weren't for him... you and I wouldn't have reached this point today."
The deep words made Li Xiangjun tremble all over, raised her beautiful eyes and looked at Ning Nanyou in a daze, moved her lips, not knowing what to say.
She looked at Ning Nanyou in a daze, and thousands of feelings surged in her heart.
"Why didn't you suddenly say anything?" This gentle tone, soft and gentle tone was like a light feather scratching Li Xiangjun's heart, making her body tremble.
"I thought... you've never liked me." She murmured to herself.
Ning Nanyou pondered softly, with a little distress in his eyes: "How could it be? I grew up with you as a childhood sweetheart. I have fantasized countless times... You are by my side in this life, and you are the one who will accompany me for the rest of your life... But the world doesn't go as expected... You married into the Wei Mansion and became the wife of your brother. I can only keep a distance from you. Yushuang... Shuang'er. I... like you. I have wanted to say this to you for a long time." Looking at her silently, she slowly opened her arms, her eyes were full of tenderness, and her shiny eyes were like a bottomless pit, which could suck people in at any time.
Li Xiangjun was stunned again, and her eyes were filled with ripples of autumn water. The pain that had been suppressing in her heart over the years rushed out like a sudden destruction of the dam, flooding her whole heart.
She couldn't control her emotions anymore, and she moved her clogs lightly, pounced on Ning Nan's worries, and swallowed: "In recent years, I have never expected to be like this... You always avoid me like you, treat me as your sister-in-law, and call me Sister Jun. Do you know that every step I took in the Wei family? I once thought that you had never liked me, and everything was self-indulgent... Zhaoyuan, why didn't you tell me earlier..."
Ning Nanyou hugged her gently and murmured in her ear: "Blame me, I never stopped you before you got married. It's because I have no backbone and dare not disobey my father. It's my fault."
When Li Xiangjun heard this in his own ear, he was already overjoyed and overjoyed, but she had already restrained herself and whispered softly: "I don't blame you. We are all involuntarily. I don't blame you."
Under the good moonlight, the two hugged each other tightly, and spoke privately to each other, but never wanted to separate.
East Courtyard.
Jiang Chengjia finally felt happy after making food, but his brain was still aching. He thought it was time to take the medicine. She was preparing to go find Qianshan, so she walked through the courtyard and headed towards the west courtyard.
After a few steps, she accidentally saw the figures of two people hugging in the corner of the small garden. She was wondering whether there was a pair of servants and maids in the mansion who had a private meeting on this night. She looked over carefully and saw the man clearly with the milky white moonlight.
She widened her eyes, suddenly her face turned pale, her hands suddenly lost strength, and the food box she was carrying also landed on the ground.
In the dark, Li Xiangjun and Ning Nanyou, who suddenly heard the movement, immediately separated and looked in panic.
Jiang Chengjia's face was extremely pale, staring at Ning Nanyou in a daze, with her beautiful eyes full of doubts, sourness and disbelief.
Mrs. Xiang broke free from Ning Nanyou's arms. When she turned around, the tears on her face were vaguely visible, and the scarlet dress made her look pitiful and charming.
Jiang Chengjia suddenly felt cold all over.
"My brother and sister... it's not what you think... I'm with Brother Zhao..." Li Xiangjun was anxious to explain, but was interrupted by Jiang Chengjia.
"What is Sister Jun explaining? If you have nothing to do with Junhou, I won't think too much." The petite figure imprinted in the candlelight straightened unconsciously, and his eyes were staring at the two people in the dark.
Ning Nanyou stood there without saying a word, but his heart was in chaos. For some reason, when he saw Jiang Chengjia's eyes sore, his chest felt like he had been stabbed suddenly, causing pain.
"Sister-in-law... Look at you, you speak so hard, and you still say there is no misunderstanding?" Li Xiangjun slowed down his face, smiled and said lightly: "My brother and I are just because we are feeling the old childhood news...this is..."
"I'm going to take you to the same place when I was feeling my childhood? Sister Jun treats me as a fool?" Jiang Chengjia retorted.
"I...my...my brother and sister, you really misunderstood me." Li Xiangjun's face showed a panic expression, and her weak and pitiful appearance made people want to step forward to comfort her.
Jiang Chengjia sneered and was about to continue cursing, but suddenly he heard Ning Nanyou protect Li Xiangjun: "Jiang Chengjia! Don't guess randomly!"
Ning Nanyou's face was cold and he stared at her seriously, his eyes with cold anger.
She choked by him and suddenly felt ridiculous. A trace of sadness rose in her heart, and her eyes were full of pain: "Yes... I'm just making a fuss... Junhou and Jun sister are childhood sweethearts, I am an outsider... and what qualifications do you have to care about your affairs."
Jiang Chengjia threw down the food box, carried the hem of the skirt and ran towards the master bedroom of the north courtyard.
Ning Nanyou stared at her running figure, and a bitterness spread out in his heart, as if some toxin was slowly eroding his heart, making him feel uncomfortable.
Li Xiangjun, who was standing in front of him, seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, turned around and hesitated to hold his sleeve and said gently: "Zhaoyuan...I...I'm causing trouble for you."
Li Xiangjun's soft tone did not reach his ears.
Seeing that Ning Nanyou had no movement for a long time, she couldn't help but look up and saw that the handsome man in front of her was following Jiang Chengjia's back as he left, never leaving for a moment.
A sourness surged in Li Xiangjun's heart, and he forced his sleeves to pull his eyes, and his eyes were filled with tears and swallowed: "Tomorrow... I will kowtow and apologize with my brother and sister tomorrow. It's me that I didn't restrain myself. Zhaoyuan. I'm still from the Wei family after all, and you have a wife. We still missed it. In the future...it's just like this. I know you still have me in your heart."
This crying voice made Ning Nanyou come back from the inexplicable pain created in his heart.
He frowned and stared at the woman in the scorching skirt in front of him, feeling a little trouble.
After a moment, he suppressed the disgust in his heart, changed into a tender face, and took Li Xiangjun into his arms and gently coaxed him: "Brother Wei has been gone for many years. Although you have to guard the position of Mrs. Xiang, you should not have wronged yourself, let alone wronged me. Yushuang, I will not give up on you."
Li Xiangjun's heart moved, and a soreness in his nose. He wrapped his arms around his waist and said tremblingly: "How can I bear to let you down?"
She kept crying and cried: "It's just... I can't be so willful... Behind me is the entire Li family. Zhaoyuan, I... and you... can't be in the open."
A hint of coldness appeared in Ning Nanyou's eyes, and he said affectionately: "It's okay. It's your love and my wish... As long as you can be with you, I don't want anything..."
"Take it serious?" Li Xiangjun looked up at him, his wet eyes shining.
Ning Nanyou gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and gently kissed her on her forehead and said softly: "I take it seriously."
The woman in her arms immediately turned to joy, and her face gradually became rosy.
"But this will never be good for you. I am a man, and my reputation is nothing. What's more, my reputation is no longer worth mentioning in the public... Yushuang, I'm afraid that I will let you down."
He changed his subject and looked at Li Xiangjun with concern.
"What you mean... don't you think I'm a widow?" Li Xiangjun slowly put away his smile and said dissatisfied.
"Shuang'er... you're afraid you misunderstood me." Ning Nanyou said lightly, "I mean... I want to be with you openly. If... you are willing to help me, when my father's great achievements are achieved, I will seize power and become emperor... By then... no one will hinder us."
The woman in the scorching skirt was a little surprised, but not very shocked. Ning Nanyou has always been an ambitious person. She knew very well this.
Although everyone rumored that Ning Nanyou, the second son of King Huai, was a useless fool, but Li Xiangjun didn't believe it at all. Ning Nanyou was in trouble very early, and she had been with him since childhood, knowing how hard he studied... Now she looked cowardly and dared not disobey her father's orders, but it was just a way for him to keep a low profile for many years.
She always believed in him, brave and resourceful, and was a person who could accomplish great things.
Now, listening to Ning Nanyou's words, in addition to the initial surprise, there was also constant excitement and joy.
If one day the man in front of him can really ascend the throne... then how much does she want the Wei family's glory and wealth?
