After rebirth, I remarried the domineering 9000-year-old

In the following days, Murong Yan would visit Shen Yan every day, sometimes sitting by his bed for a few hours, and sometimes pushing him out for a walk in the chair with carriage wheels.

But when the two of them met every day, they were silent most of the time and no one spoke to the other.

Even if they occasionally spoke a few words, they always revolved around meals, medicine, and physical recovery. Both of them consciously avoided mentioning any other matters.

After returning from a walk outside that day, Murong Yan picked up Shen Yan from the chair as usual, carefully laid him on the bed, and tucked in the corners of the quilt.

Just as I was about to leave——

"Murong Yan." He called her.

Murong Yan's body stiffened slightly. This was the first time Shen Yan called her by her full name. She was stunned for a moment, then turned around and asked, "What's going on?"

Shen Yan looked at the woman's expressionless beautiful face and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you smile for a long time."

After a pause, he added, "You look very pretty when you smile."

Murong Yan: "If everything is fine, I'll go back first." After saying that, she turned around and was about to leave, but was stopped in her tracks by the man's words.

Shen Yan: "I can tell you how to get him back."

Murong Yan took a few long strides back to the man's bed, her fox eyes filled with joy and anxiety: "What should I do? How can I get him to come back?"

As soon as the words fell, their eyes met and they both fell silent.

Shen Yan quickly lowered her eyes, hiding the loneliness and desolation in them. Sure enough, only when she mentioned Shen Mu did her beautiful fox eyes become lively and vivid.

Ever since he was the one who woke up in the alley that day, he had never seen her smile again.

No joy, anger, sorrow or happiness.

All she had was a blank expression, as if she had lost interest in everything in this world, and she only cared about him out of concern for his body.

She used to be such a passionate and bright girl. Back then, she always acted like a spoiled child to him and made demands on him, not allowing him to run around, not allowing him to look at other women... not allowing him to do this or that...

At one point, he felt that she was too nosy and annoying.

But such days will never come back...

Shen Mu pulled the corner of his lip: "Smile once, and I'll tell you."

Murong Yan couldn't laugh.

Especially when she saw that he was smiling but his eyes seemed filled with sadness, she couldn't laugh at all.

It’s hard to tell if it’s because he used his lover’s face, but she felt very uncomfortable seeing him like this.

In the end, she didn't smile, but just said softly: "I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

Lying again.

Although Shen Yan had been lying in bed these days, her hearing was still sharp. Every time she said she had something to do and had to leave, she actually went to the rooftop alone and sat there for a long time without moving.

His smile suddenly widened, and he spoke in a teasing tone: "Don't smile! Then I'll give you a smile."

Murong Yan had already walked towards the door. She did not turn back when she heard the words. She just paused and raised her hand to open the door.

But the man's voice did not stop: "Shen Mu cares most about his disciple Fu Jiuli. All you need to do is plot to assassinate Fu Jiuli and put his life in danger. Shen Mu will wake up on his own."

Murong Yan still went out, even quickening her pace, as if she was fleeing in a panic.

I even forgot to close the door.

After a while, a maid came in and closed the door.

Shen Yan withdrew his gaze, closed his eyes, and listened quietly to the movements outside.

Sure enough, she went to the roof again.

Shen Yan closed his eyes and meditated, his thoughts gradually focusing on his sea of ​​consciousness, but he still could not feel the consciousness belonging to Shen Mu in his body.

But even so, he was still very sure that Shen Mu was still there, although he didn't know where he had hidden.

"Shen Mu, she was almost raped in the alley that day. I know you are awake."

"With your strength, you can obviously replace me and save her from danger. Why don't you show up?"

There was silence and no one responded.

Shen Yan laughed silently. He had lived like a joke these years.

He always tried to drive Shen Mu out of this body, and even thought he had succeeded several times.

But he forgot the most crucial fact, that is, the owner of this body was Shen Mu from beginning to end.

And he was just a consciousness that came into being due to Shen Mu's will, and should not have existed between heaven and earth.

Only Shen Mu could completely destroy him, and he, no matter what, could not do anything to Shen Mu...

The illusion that I was the only one in control of this body all these years was just because Shen Mu voluntarily fell asleep.

He had just figured all this out.

That time in the alley, he easily took the lives of a dozen eight-star killers from Xingyue Pavilion with just a wave of his hand.

Not to mention that he is weak now, even in his prime, if he were to face ten eight-star killers alone, it would take him at least a quarter of an hour to kill all of them.

And in the alley, the reason why he could burst out with such terrifying strength despite his sick body is self-evident.

That is clearly Shen Mu's strength.

Shen Yan's eyes moistened slightly: "Shen Mu, Qiu'er loves Shen Yuan, and Yan'er loves you."

"I used to think I had the most sincere love in the world. For this so-called love, I did many wrong things that violated morality..."

“It turns out that no one in this world loves me.”

"Shen Mu, I don't want to live anymore."

"When you were a child, you had the most difficult and painful time. I helped you and carried it through for you. You have always felt guilty towards me..."

"So you are willing to give me your body, and even give me the woman you love, right?"

Still no one responded.

"But Yan'er only has you in her heart. If you insist on not waking up, she will never be happy again in her life."

A tear slid down from the corner of Shen Yan's eye: "Can you really bear it?"

......

The next day, Shen Yan lay in bed and waited for a long time, until dusk, but still did not see Murong Yan.

He asked the maid who came to serve him, "Where is she? Why didn't she come today?"

The two maids just knelt down and admitted their mistakes: "We didn't know."

Shen Yan stopped asking questions and just waited patiently.

However, three days passed in a flash, and he didn't even see the shadow of Murong Yan.

On the fourth day, when the sun was about to set.

Shen Yan glanced at the silent door and finally crushed a small round dark jade pendant hidden on his body.

An hour later, in the pitch-black night, a dark shadow sneaked into Shen Yan's bedroom without anyone noticing.

"Pavilion Master, the War Star is here."

Shen Yan looked at the bed curtain above his head and was silent for a long time.

A cold voice sounded: "Kidnap me away."

"Take me with you, and you and Zhan Yue, and assassinate Fu Jiuli."
