Returning after a three-year escape from death, the tyrant has turned evil.

Chapter 137 Song Yi's World

Jiang Lanye chuckled softly, turned to check the doors and windows to make sure they were closed, and then coaxed in a low voice:
"Put your clothes away, let me see what's wrong with you."

Jiang Lan had been talking about military matters all night, and now his eyes were bloodshot again. But even so, he wasn't in a hurry to go to sleep and insisted on teasing Song Yi a bit more.

Song Yi quickly said, "Stop fooling around. I'll get dressed. You should go to sleep."

Seeing that she refused, Jiang Lanye didn't say anything more and simply reached out and pulled it off.

Song Yi was startled and instinctively kicked her legs in an attempt to resist him, but Jiang Lanye easily pinned her down.

He asked in a low voice, "Does your leg hurt?"

He pulled a small jar of ointment from his sleeve and explained, "I specifically ordered someone to bring this to me when I returned just now."

How did you know I was still in pain?

Jiang Lanye could not possibly forget these things. He leaned down and touched the tip of his nose to Song Yi's nose, saying, "Of course I know."

After saying that, he threw the clothes aside.

Seeing this, Song Yi hurriedly tried to pull the blanket over herself again.

Jiang Lanye reached out and grabbed her calf, saying, "Let me see."

Song Yi raised her hand, trying to push him away forcefully, and said urgently, "I can do it myself, I can see."

After all, this position is just too shameful.
Seeing that she continued to push him away and kick her legs restlessly, his eyes darkened and his voice suddenly became deep.

"Song Yi, you know me well."

Hearing him say that, Song Yi's face turned red with anger.

"Jiang Lanye, I've followed you all this way, not so you could bully me!"

Jiang Lanye blocked Song Yi's way, preventing her from running off the bed, and slowly untied the belt around her waist.

"I didn't bully you, I was just showing concern for you."

Song Yi felt a chill run down her spine at the sight of the thin fabric. Staring at Jiang Lanye's movements, she suddenly realized something and quickly straightened up to run away.

Seeing this, Jiang Lanye reached out and pulled her back into his arms.

"be honest."

After a stick of incense.

Song Yi bent her knees, feeling extremely sore, as if she couldn't hold on any longer. Her legs were trembling, and she asked through gritted teeth, "How much longer? It's just applying some medicine, is it really necessary to be so meticulous?"

Seeing that she really couldn't hold on any longer, Jiang Lanye chuckled and withdrew his hand.

"All right."

Song Yi immediately shrank into the quilt and looked at him, saying, "Go take a shower and then come back to sleep."

Song Yi was genuinely worried about him because she knew that Jiang Lanye probably wouldn't have much time to rest in the days to come. Since that was the case, she would take advantage of any free time to catch up on his sleep as much as possible.

Hearing her say that, Jiang Lanye stared at her intently.

Song Yi found his gaze inexplicable and asked curiously, "What's wrong?"

"You said you would tell me."

His voice was calm.

"tell what?"

Recalling the word that Song Yi had uttered, he said quietly, "Your world."

Song Yi raised her hand and touched her nose, asking, "Jiang Lanye, if I told you, would you really believe me?"

"Why not?" He casually played with the strands of Song Yi's hair that fell to her chest, his movements nonchalant and seemingly indifferent, but his eyes were exceptionally deep.

"To put it simply, in a way you can understand, it means that you and I live in different dynasties. I live in a dynasty that is a very, very long time in the future, and at that time, the environment, people and things around us will be completely different from now."

Although Jiang Lanye was somewhat prepared, he frowned when he heard Song Yi's words sound so fantastical, and asked, "Then why did you come here?"

Song Yi thought for a moment and said, "Because there is a book that records the current dynasty. While I was reading it, I accidentally traveled here and came to your side."

After she finished speaking, she swallowed and observed Jiang Lanye's expression.

His expression was remarkably calm as he asked, "So, during those three years you disappeared, you went back, right?"

“Jiang Lanye, I really didn’t have any feelings for you back then, which is why I chose to leave.”

Song Yi sat up, reached out and grabbed his wide sleeve, shaking it back and forth.

"I've already said that these kinds of things are hard to explain. If I tell you, you'll just get upset."

Jiang Lanye looked at her intently and said softly, "If you didn't love me in the first place, why did you come back?"

Song Yi choked for a moment, then said in despair, "At the time, I thought it was all fake, all fabricated, including you. I thought that with my departure, this fictional dynasty and its fictional people would disappear, but I never imagined..."

After she returned, the world here continued to unfold its story.

Jiang Lanye searched for her for three years, looking for someone he could never find.

“I came back without warning, for no reason, so I was really confused and afraid of you during that time, so I could only hide for the time being.”

I never expected that Jiang Lanye would find me so quickly and take me to his side.

"Without any warning?"

Jiang Lanye slowly repeated these four words.

Song Yi had no idea what Jiang Lanye was thinking.

After a long while, he lowered his eyes and stopped looking at Song Yi. His voice was very soft and faint, as if it would be blown away by the wind in the next moment.

"So, if there hadn't been this sudden, unexpected event, if you hadn't loved me, you would never have been able to come back, and I would never have been able to see you again, right?"

This is indeed the case.

Song Yi quickly racked her brains to coax him, saying, "What's done is done, so why think about another possibility? This only shows that we are destined to be together. Our fate is not over yet, and it's only a matter of time before we meet again in this life."

Jiang Lanye suddenly hugged her tightly, his arms tightening as if he wanted to completely merge her into his body.

Without any warning.

He repeated those four words, this time with a trembling voice.

"What if you go back without warning? Will you be able to find a way back again?"

Hearing him ask that, Song Yi was startled.

This was a question she had never considered.

Song Yi did not respond to him, and Jiang Lanye began to tremble all over, feeling unusually at a loss.

"How can I possibly keep you here?"

Song Yi snapped back to her senses and quickly hugged him tightly, her tone exceptionally firm: "No, Jiang Lanye, even if we really have to go back, you'll definitely hold my hand tightly then, and maybe you'll even come back with me."

Hearing her words, Jiang Lanye calmed down somewhat and released her.

Song Yi looked at him, deliberately revealing a sly smile, and said, "Besides, don't forget that you are the emperor. If I really take you away, this place will probably be in chaos. So it's best if you don't leave, and I don't leave either."
