“I’ll do it. In the future, don’t touch your hands with these things. They’re dirty.”
The deep voice circled in her ears and trembled all the way to the bottom of her heart, making MO Ruyue’s waist go soft. She had no strength left and could only lie in the man’s arms.
Gu Ying had never said such words before. They were companions whose souls were the most compatible with each other. In that dark age, they could only survive by snuggling up to each other like this.
But it turned out that his words had such a “destructive effect” on her?
If she had known earlier, she would have seduced him to say it.
MO Ruyue was a little regretful, but it wasn’t too late. They were lucky to have a second chance to start over.
“Gu Ying, you don’t have to do this anymore. The sun is very warm, and I want you to enjoy it with me.”
She lay on his shoulder and suddenly felt drowsy. Her eyelids were heavy, but she still had a lot to say and a lot of things to do. She couldn’t sleep yet! “If you’re tired, then go to sleep. You can wait for me here in peace.”
When Gu Ying heard the fatigue in her voice, his heart felt like it had been rubbed, and it was tightly curled up. Every beat hurt badly.
He carried the woman who was clinging to him like a koala bear and walked gently to the bed, ready to put her on the bed and let her rest.
As for the assassins in the restaurant, their fates had been decided long ago.
“Gu Ying, I’ll accompany you.”
MO Ruyue was about to bite the tip of her tongue and use the pain to wake herself up. However, her lips had just opened slightly when they were blocked by something.
It was warm and soft, like cotton candy.
No, there was also the coolness of the mint. As expected, it had the magical effect of waking her up instantly.
MO Ruyue’s eyes widened. The close distance made her almost cross-eyed, and she couldn’t see that handsome face clearly.
But his eyelashes were so long that they seemed to be able to touch her face when they moved …
Ah, ah, right, he even had dimples…
She thought about it in a daze, and countless messy thoughts flashed through her mind. It was such a sweet moment, but what was she thinking about? A palm covered her, blocking her vision, and pressed her eyelids down.
“Close your eyes, ”
His voice was a lot hoarse, making MO Ruyue’s face instantly burst red. She also complied with his words and obediently closed her eyes.
After a long time, as if a century had passed, Gu Ying slowly got up, while MO Ruyue gave out a light snore. She was actually fast asleep.
Gu Ying’s lips were also darker than before. He licked his lips and the smile in his eyes softened.
He opened a corner of the blanket next to him and wrapped it around MO Ruyue’s waist, then went to close the open window.
The drug in the room had long been removed with the antidote when he came in. Now, the whole room was filled with the cold fragrance that belonged to them.
“Have a good sleep. Wait for me, I’ll be back soon.”
Gu Ying’s hand traced MO Ruyue’s eyes and brows. He was reluctant to leave and did something that didn’t match his words.
MO Ruyue seemed to have heard him. She smiled sweetly in her sleep. Her face rubbed against his palm and she fell asleep again.
It swayed leisurely and felt like it was floating. It was also warm, as if it was soaking in a hot spring.
If she was in the air, it should be cold. Was she dreaming?
As soon as this thought appeared, MO Ruyue opened her eyes almost immediately and shouted, “Gu Ying!”
She struggled to break free from the rope that bound her, but the rope was tightly wrapped around her, not allowing her to break free.
“Bing ‘Er, wake up, you’re dreaming!”
A gentle and slightly anxious voice sounded in her ear. MO Ruyue quieted down. Only then did she realize that she was snuggled up in Gu Ying’s arms, and the rope that was binding her was only his arm.
“Ying, am I dreaming?”
The sleepiness in her eyes hadn’t disappeared yet, and she still had the innocence of when she first woke up. Gu Ying’s throat tightened when he saw this, and his body suddenly began to heat up.
“Yes, you had a dream. You kept talking in your sleep. You were in a deep sleep, but not very well.”
Gu Ying slowed down his speech, and as he spoke, he tidied up her hair that was a little messy from sleeping.
“I thought… I thought it was just a dream to find you…”
MO Ruyue snuggled deeper into Gu Ying’s arms. She had not been afraid of the cold for a long time, but when she was by his side, his hot body temperature kept tempting her.
He was hers anyway, what was there to be afraid of!
Gu Ying didn’t say anything, only hugging her even more tightly.
He was also afraid that this was all a dream. Even though he held her tightly in his arms, he still could not believe that he had really found her.
However, Gu Ying wouldn’t say these words to MO Ruyue. Even if he didn’t say it, they were already connected in their minds, so how could they not know each other’s feelings?
“We’ve already left the blood tower?”
MO Ruyue was already completely awake. She had already sized up the surrounding environment just now. She was not in the luxurious room in the blood tower.
“Yes, I’ve already taken care of it. I saw that you were sleeping soundly, so I took you away without waking you up.”
Gu Ying didn’t go into any more details and only briefly mentioned it.
MO Ruyue had gone through countless life and death situations with him. She knew very well what kind of bloody and terrifying scene was hidden behind such a sentence.
He did what he said and started to push her toward a brighter place instead of pulling her back into the darkness.
She didn’t expose his thoughts. In short, he must walk under the sun in the future. She wouldn’t allow him to hide in the darkness again. If that happened, their rebirth would be meaningless.
“Where are we going next? Xu City or Sun City? I’ll go with you!”
MO Ruyue took the initiative to ask about Gu Ying’s plan. If he didn’t say it, he wouldn’t be able to hide it.
“Bing ‘Er, didn’t you say that you have some other secret to tell me? Now that you’re awake, tell me about it.”
Gu Ying didn’t answer and instead directly changed the topic. Even his eyes looked elsewhere, not meeting MO Ruyue’s eyes.
“Ying, do you think you can hide from me?”
She didn’t want to beat around the bush anymore. They all knew that she couldn’t leave him to do these things alone, so why waste time chasing and hiding?
Gu Ying finally turned his gaze and looked down at her. His eyes were pulled by the flickering candlelight and also wavered.
“I can’t stop you.”
After a long while, he sighed.
“Of course you can’t stop me. What nonsense are you thinking?”
MO Ruyue said matter-of-factly.
“If you don’t want me to do it myself, then I have help for you. Let me do the logistics. Is that okay?”
She took a small step back. After all, Gu Ying had already begun to walk into a dead end. Once he walked in, it would not be easy to pull him out.
Therefore, what she should do now was not to press him step by step, but to retreat in order to advance.
Let him come out first, then block his way out, and then…
It was time for her to give and take.
MO Ruyue’s heart had already made proper arrangements, but her eyes were very innocent and secretly proud.
“Your support, is it the Bai family?” Gu Ying asked after some thought.
“You’ve been paying attention to me?”
MO Ruyue asked instead of answering.
She didn’t know why, but her heart suddenly felt sour..
