Transmigrated into a vicious female supporting role, reborn as a hostage to the paranoid male protag

"New Year's gift?" Su Yingxue's expression did not change when she heard this, but her heart tightened. What should she do? She had originally thought of faking her death and had not thought of preparing any New Year's gift for Chu Xingchen at all.

I didn't expect Chu Xingchen to prepare something for me. It's not polite if I don't reciprocate. What should I do?

How could she prepare a New Year's gift at this last minute? Su Yingxue didn't know how to come up with a New Year's gift.

Now, Chu Xingchen and she were like the closest strangers. Zhang Susu had never known what love was, but Chu Xingchen had saved her time and time again, and they had shared a love affair.

Chu Xingchen has an excellent appearance. He was born with an extremely handsome face, and his handsomeness was tempered by a pair of peach blossom eyes, which made him look gentle and charming, just like a fairy in mythology, with a beautiful temptation.

If they were lovers who were just enjoying sex, Su Yingxue wouldn't be at a disadvantage. Although she had initially resisted, the thing people fear most is habit.

I got used to the paranoia and passionate love in Chu Xingchen's eyes, and also got used to the intimacy.

The reason why she called him a stranger was because Su Yingxue always felt that Chu Xingchen was very different from the Chu Xingchen in the novel.

Originally, she could be said to have started out as a destined person, but now she has lost the golden finger of the destined person, but has a bit more of the unknown feeling of opening a blind box.

Su Yingxue didn't know whether she and Chu Xingchen could continue to be together. Perhaps one day when she returned to the modern era, according to the current trend, the original host and Chu Xingchen would be a couple.

This is also good. At least the original host of the one Chu Xingchen loves is extremely happy to stay with him until old age.

"Sister, come with me." Chu Xingchen took her hand, and then in an instant, he took out a fox mask and gently put it on Su Yingxue.

Chu Xingchen's mask was a wolf, and hers was a red fox. The mask covered half of her face, so that he could take her out of the house without changing her appearance.

"Sister, hold me." Chu Xingchen's hot palms instantly embraced her fox fur cloak, and then took her out of the high wall. Outside the wall, a simple-looking carriage was parked there quietly.

Chu Xingchen carried her into the carriage. The carriage had a plain appearance and was commonly used by merchants. It had no extra decorations and was extremely plain.

The interior of the carriage was surprisingly luxurious and exquisite. Although the carriage was small, it had a main seat, a tea table, a small stove, a hand warmer, a heater, storybooks, and tea.

The main seat was covered with a thick fur cushion made of fox fur, and a brocade quilt was sewn underneath. The interior of the carriage was also covered with soft brocade cushions, making it extremely warm.

"Sister, please take a seat." Chu Xingchen took her hand and pulled her to sit on the soft cushion.

"This is my sister's favorite snack. She doesn't drink tea often and prefers milk tea. I asked someone to prepare milk tea for her."

During the time that Chu Xingchen was with Su Yingxue, he was already familiar with all of Su Yingxue's habits. He always liked to help her wash her hands, serve her tea and water, and pass her food.

In this world, Chu Xingchen was probably the person who understood Su Yingxue's preferences best besides Taxue and the others. However, Su Yingxue didn't always know Chu Xingchen's preferences.

Chu Xingchen only wears black clothes, and each piece of clothing, including the hair crown, is basically the same color and style.

He seemed to have no particular preferences. He would eat each dish with just one chopstick, and would only take a small sip of a cup of tea or soup before continuing.

Chu Xingchen didn't have any particular favorite things. His things were processed once a week and inspected by a special person to test for poison.

So Su Yingxue really didn't know what his preferences were. Chu Xingchen was like a person without desires, and he was extremely indifferent to material desires, except for sex.

Sometimes Su Yingxue felt that young people, full of vigor and vitality, might be a little obsessed with this.

But she had once arranged for him to have a concubine, but he demoted her to a cleaning maid for various reasons, and she had no way to deal with it.

Chu Xingchen was good at hiding his emotions and preferences, but Su Yingxue was the exact opposite. Her emotions, likes, dislikes, and joys were all visible on her face.

Chu Xingchen's thoughts were like the deep ice hidden under the iceberg on the sea. She could only see the small part of what he could reveal on the sea surface, and could not see his true thoughts.

"Sister, what are you thinking about?" Chu Xingchen washed her hands. Su Yingxue's hands were snow-white and smooth. He soaked them with tea, rinsed them with warm water, and finally wiped them dry with the softest silk.

Chu Xingchen handed over some tea and snacks, his eyes dark as he looked at Su Yingxue and said softly, "Sister was distracted just now. I called her several times, but she ignored me."

Su Yingxue looked up at him, but saw that Chu Xing's eyes were deep and clear. His eyes, which were as bright as stars, seemed to be covered with some dark mist. Coupled with his slightly aggrieved look, Su Yingxue was a little surprised.

When did Chu Xingchen, who was such a strong and paranoid person in her memory, become the man who seemed willing to compromise for her, like her little follower and guard?

Su Yingxue was surprised at the change in Chu Xingchen, but Chu Xingchen seemed unaware of it. Unexpectedly, this time he took him to a high-rise private residence inside the north gate, built not far from the city wall.

Chu Xingchen took Su Yingxue into the building and headed straight to the roof. One side of the private room on the rooftop had a window overlooking the bustling street market during the Dasheng Lantern Festival. The other side had a window overlooking the mountains beyond the city wall to the north.

The continuous mountain ranges are connected one after another under the night sky. The green mountains are no longer beautiful, but are dyed black by the night sky, blending into the endless night.

On one side is the brightly lit street market, on the other side are the mountains illuminated only by the moon and stars. The longitude and latitude are clearly distinguished and completely different.

"Sister," Chu Xingchen took out a jade token from his arms and handed it to Su Yingxue. His face was stern and cold, like the solid ice that covered the top of Tianshan Mountain all year round. But only when he looked at her, under the coldness and darkness in his eyes, there was a deep tenderness hidden.

"After tomorrow, Xingchen won't be able to protect you all the time, nor will he be able to witness with his own eyes my sister finally defeat the Xuanyuan clan and ascend to the pinnacle of power in the Great Sheng Dynasty."

Chu Xingchen faced the continuous mountain range in the north. To the north of that place, beyond the continuous green hills and thousands of mountains and rivers, was the vast grassland of Da Qi.

In this life, Chu Xingchen dreamed of his previous life, so he accelerated his deployment in Da Qi.

The health of the King of Great Qi was deteriorating day by day because of his even more absurd and dissolute life.

Chu Xingchen's brothers, as well as the powerful officials behind them, were all secretly preparing to make a move. Last week, he received a letter from Da Qi asking him to return home as soon as possible.

Chu Xingchen stayed here to find traces of Su Yingxue's life and to avenge her.

But now, since Su Yingxue is safe and sound, he has to embark on his own journey.

"Sister," Chu Xingchen looked at the dark mountains in front of him. In the past, when he was a child, he rode in a carriage like this, traveling through thousands of mountains and rivers, and stayed alone in Dasheng as a hostage.

Now, it is time to return home.

Chu Xingchen didn't have the slightest surprise about returning home. What was waiting for him ahead was a thorny and bloody road.

Deep down, he was reluctant to leave the people around him.

Chu Xingchen looked at his hometown, then at the woman beside him, sighed softly, looked at Su Yingxue in front of him helplessly, smiled bitterly, and said, "Sister..."

At that moment, Chu Xingchen seemed to have said everything, but also seemed to have said nothing.

Chu Xingchen's eyes were filled with affection and tenderness, but as a man, his heart was in the vast world, how could he only have room for one woman?
