Forced love, an inescapable fate

Chapter 169 Sharing the same bed

Her hot tears fell on the back of Jiang Ci's hand, and his eyes also turned red.

He held the person in his arms with trembling body.

"I know, sister, I've always known. I didn't dare beg for forgiveness. I just wanted you to give me a chance to make it up to me. Sister, promise me you won't leave again, okay? Do you know that when I knew you were leaving, I almost went crazy."

Feeling the burning tears streaming down her neck and the person hugging her trembling all over, Mu Qingli finally couldn't bear it anymore and reached out to hug him back.

Once upon a time, they depended on each other and were each other's salvation and support.

And now, the two people hugging each other tightly are also like this.

Although Mu Qingli didn't say anything, her actions said it all.

Jiang Ci felt both happy and bitter.

The two hugged each other for a long time until they heard a sound outside the door, and Mu Qingli hurriedly let go of the person.

"Your Highness, the hot water is ready."

Jiang Ci gritted his teeth in his heart.

The wonderful atmosphere that was hard-earned was destroyed by this blind guy.

But it seemed to be what he had just ordered.

Then he held his forehead helplessly and asked for it to be sent in in a cold voice.

The water maid filled the bathtub in fear under his murderous gaze, put down the items the woman needed for bathing, and fled away.

Mu Qingli on the side had a face as red as a monkey's butt.

Although I really wanted to take a comfortable bath, I couldn't ignore the fact that there was another person in the room.

But looking at Jiang Ci, he calmly picked out a light crimson inner garment from the clothes brought by the maid and handed it to someone who was still tugging at the corner of the clothes.

"Sister, I know you're sweating and want to take a shower. I still have some official business to attend to. You can take a shower by yourself."

Someone pricked up his ears in disbelief.

Wash yourself?

Could it be that he needs help?

I'm really not moved at all.

Mu Qingli was so angry that she laughed, and because of his words, she completely lost her previous concerns.

She grabbed the clothes he handed to her and went behind the screen with a speechless look on her face.

Jiang Ci, whose plan succeeded, suppressed the smile on his face and returned to the desk.

But my heart just can't calm down.

Listening to the sound of water coming from behind the screen, and thinking of someone's incredibly soft mouth, I felt a heat at the tip of my nose, and then I became flustered.

And someone soaking in the bathtub feels comfortable all over.

I soaked in the water until it became cold, then I reluctantly got up.

Then I noticed that the underwear that the maid had brought in was placed next to the bathtub. It was completely complete.

I couldn't help but feel slightly moved again.

Not to mention, that’s quite thoughtful.

After getting dressed, she walked out from behind the screen with a refreshed look, wiping her hair with a dry cloth.

Seeing Jiang Ci still sitting there handling official business, I suddenly felt that if I didn't think about those messy things, this kind of interaction would really give me a sense of peace and tranquility.

He also knew that it was now the final stage of the game with Wu Chen, and he should be very busy.

Forget it, just stay here for the time being. We'll deal with everything after they completely capture Wu Chen.

She turned her back to Jiang Ci and wiped her wet hair quietly.

It was not until she felt someone pulling the thing in her hand that she turned around and saw Jiang Ci standing behind her.

"Let me dry your hair."

Mu Qingli: He finished his official business so quickly?

Although it was a bit awkward, I didn't refuse.

The candlelight stretched the shadows of the two people very long.

This moment was a scene from his dream. He had been looking forward to it for a long time, and now, it finally came true.

After drying your hair, it's time to rest.

Mu Qingli was lying on the wide bed, with her back to Jiang Ci, who was sleeping on the floor and staring at her back with a resentful look on his face.

No sleepiness at all.

So, is he planning to stare a hole in his own back?

Finally, she couldn't stand it anymore, so she turned around and looked at her, and the resentment on Jiang Ci's face had been replaced by tenderness.

She has a very nice smile.

"Sister, why aren't you sleeping yet?"

Asking knowingly.

She said patiently.

"Why don't you go sleep somewhere else? I can't bear to let you lie on the ground, and the ground is cold. What if you..."

Before she could finish her words, Jiang Ci, who was full of joy, was only a shadow left.

When she turned around again, he was already lying beside her, looking at her with a pair of eyes that flickered with success.

The tail is raised to the sky.

"I mean...I mean, go somewhere else in the mansion. I didn't let you come up, so get out."

Mu Qingli reacted and stood up and hit him with a pillow.

"Jiang Ci, have you any shame? Don't push your luck."

Jiang Ci reached out and grabbed the pillow she threw at him, his expression quite aggrieved.

"But sister, I thought you agreed to let me come up, and there was no extra room in the mansion. You had the heart to let me lie on the cold ground? What if I get frozen and can't beat Wu Chen? Then not only me, but also Wen Muchuan and Su Minsheng, we will all be doomed. And Bai Yu, Jiu Yue and many others will be implicated. How could you bear it, sister?"

He is quite good at quibbling.

"You and I......"

Well, I have no words to say. It’s true that no one can talk nonsense like him.

She held her forehead in her hand speechlessly, feeling as if she had jumped into a pit that had been dug in advance.

The person who dug the pit looked innocent.

"And look, sister, the bed is very big. We can each sleep on either side, so it won't affect us at all. And sister, why are you worrying? Didn't we sleep together before when we escaped from the Qi State Autumn Hunt? You even hugged me to keep each other warm."

What the hell was he talking about? He was like a little chicken at that time, and he would swell up if he was held. And how old was he then? How old is he now?

This tall and strong man was lying next to her. Looking at his face and figure, who could still sleep with a clear mind?

Only then did I realize that this person was really good at making up stories.

But he still looked innocent.

But brother, why don’t you take a look in the mirror? The look on your face of having succeeded in your evil plan is not too obvious.

I was speechless at Jiang Ci's shamelessness.

In the end, she could only pick up an extra quilt and place it between the two of them.

"This is the 38th parallel. Do not cross this line, or I will kick you off."

Jiang Citou was pounding garlic.

"Yeah, I know. Sister, it's late, let's go to bed."

Ignoring the ambiguous words "Let's sleep" from his mouth, Mu Qingli lay down with her back to him speechlessly, wishing she could squeeze herself into the crack of the wall.

As the candles outside the bed were extinguished, the two people, with different thoughts, tried hard to fall asleep, but to no avail.

Can't sleep, can't sleep at all.
