You have returned slowly

Zhu and Leng looked at Li Chengen, who had been petrified in a daze, and called him, "General Li is back, let's see who's here." Ye Ying heard this, turned her head towards the door, and asked softly, "General Li?"

Li Chengen trembled all over, as if he was trying his best to restrain his emotions, his eyes were fixed on the face that he had been thinking about day and night, he opened his mouth, except for forcing out the word "um" from his throat, he choked up and said no Speak up.

Zhu Jianqiu and Leng Tianfeng exchanged glances, got up and walked out of the house, "Master Ye and General Li have something important to discuss, everyone who is idle should get back first." He called the soldiers in the house to come out together, and the few of them With a knowing smile on his face, Leng Tianfeng closed the door intimately.

The room suddenly became quiet, and the two of them faced each other for a long time, silent, only feeling that sorrow and joy were intertwined, and there were thousands of words to rush out but they didn't know where to start.

Li Chengen licked his dry lips, and said in a low voice, "Ye Ying, why did you come here?"

Ye Ying raised her hand and licked her loose temple hair, her face was calm, "As a citizen of the Tang Dynasty, I should serve the country."

"This is not a child's play. You should know how dangerous this place is. You may be captured at any time. You..." Although Li Chengen was happy in his heart, he was anxious. As if unaware, "Go back quickly tomorrow."

"Do not."

"Ye Ying!" Li Chengen couldn't help raising his voice, "You are older than me, so you don't understand such a reason? If something happens to you, how can I explain to the Second Village Master and Hidden Sword Villa?"

Ye Ying paused, raised her head slowly, and her voice was suddenly cold, "If you are only worried about not being able to explain to your second brother, you don't have to worry. Ye Mou came here willingly, so he won't hurt General Li."

"No, I didn't mean that, hey, I..." Li Chengen was at a loss, seeing Ye Ying's gloomy expression and knowing that he had said something wrong, he became more flustered, "Ye Ying, I can't let you make any mistakes, otherwise I will ..."

"Even if I come, I have already made up my mind to live and die with you." The corners of Ye Ying's lips curled up slightly, "My second brother and I have already explained the matter of the villa, and all the disciples under the sect have been sent to various places in the war. Since he is the owner of the villa, he should set himself a good example."

Li Chengen watched his expression seriously, couldn't help but hugged him in his arms, wishing to crush Ye Ying into his body with all his strength and never separate from him again.

Ye Ying reached out to hook his arm, and pressed it against his neck. The two breathed each other's breath greedily, and Li Chengen hoarsely whispered in their ears, "Ye Ying, I thought I couldn't see you anymore." ...How many times when this place is about to be breached, I stand on the city wall and always think of your face...I always think, I can't die, because I haven't been able to tell you that I am doing it What……"

Ye Ying felt his shortness of breath and patted him on the back soothingly. Li Chengen recalled these months of desperate struggle, several times he almost died under the fierce attack of Langya, and witnessed the deaths of all the soldiers who lived together day and night. , and the imperial court strictly ordered Tiance Mansion not to act rashly, so they had to stay where they were.However, they have been struggling for a long time but have not waited for reinforcements. Recently, it has been heard that the emperor abandoned the imperial city and fled.Grievance, resentment, pain, and confusion all struck, and Ye Ying's warmth relaxed his almost numb nerves. Li Chengen felt something collapse in his heart, and couldn't help crying.

"I'm really scared, I'm afraid I'll just die like this...Although I've been prepared to die in battle since joining the army, but now I have something I can't let go of...Ye Ying...I watched them with my own eyes I fell by my side, and I didn’t even have time to send the family letter...I hate it so much, I hate it...I look at their blood...I listen to them die calling my name...I..."

Ye Ying hugged him tightly, "I understand, I understand your feelings, I know, Cheng En, I know."

Ye Ying is very clear that, as the owner of a village, she can't trust others easily, and she can't even show a smile freely. She has experienced the warmth and coldness of this world since she was a child, so she has developed such an unapproachable temperament .Li Chengen had a much harder time than him. He supported the whole house by himself. He had to deal with the royal family at the top, and he had to deal with the internal affairs of the house at the bottom. He was harassed and harassed by the wolf teeth from time to time. The pain in his heart was unspeakable. Presumably Li Chengen must be Had a pretty hard time.

The more she thought about it, the more distressed Ye Ying became. She was used to being indifferent, so avoiding it would save a lot of trouble, but Li Chengen couldn't.Most people think that Li Chengen is slippery and frivolous, but if he can't be like this, how can the city survive in this undercurrent of surging rivers and lakes.

"Ye Ying, sometimes I really don't want to be this commander... I just want to be an ordinary person..." Li Chengen finally sobbed.

Zhu Jianqiu and Leng Tianfeng, who were eavesdropping outside the door, also left quietly.

Walking on the road, Leng Tianfeng looked depressed and very sad, "Military Master, General Li is suffering so much, but I don't know..."

Zhu Jianqiu stood still, looked up at the dark sky, and sighed, "I have never experienced it personally, so I know his hard work. Although General Li spends time with us day and night, he never says he is depressed, and bears all the pressure alone. Today It is really a good thing to have Master Ye to let him open his heart."

In a blink of an eye, it was getting late, and because the camps were full of wounded and foreign disciples, Ye Ying naturally slept in Li Chengen's tent.

Li Chengen helped him sit on the bed, turned around and began to make the floor.Ye Ying only heard rustling, and asked him what he was doing, Li Chengen got up and patted the dust on his hands, "You sleep on the bed, I sleep on the ground."

Ye Ying never thought of this question, she was taken aback for a moment, then reacted, she couldn't help but think that although she was often taken advantage of on weekdays, she was still a gentleman when it came to things.

Li Chengen saw that he was still thinking about something on his mind, so he didn't bother him, and disassembled the armor by himself. Ye Ying heard the sound of clanging and colliding, came back to her senses, and started to undress her coat, but she only moved a few times before stopping. , "Cheng En, I won't take off this dress."

"..."

Looking at it by the dim candlelight for a while, Li Chengen stumbled and disassembled the delicate belt from his memory, dumbfounding, "Is Luo Fuxian serving you to dress on weekdays?"

Ye Ying fiddled with him and nodded, "After becoming the owner of the estate, the clothes will become more complicated, so I will leave it to Aunt Luo." Suddenly remembered something, "Why would you?"

Li Chengen loosened the last buckle, "I used to work in a garment factory, and there would often be disciples from wealthy families trying on ready-made clothes. Naturally, I would help them wear them. This style is also the same as that time." Then he smiled and said, " Why, where did Master Ye think of?"

Ye Ying curled her lips and remained silent, thinking in her heart, when Luo Fuxian dressed me for the first time, she said that the heavy clothes were as cumbersome as women's fancy clothes, and I just thought you were used to undressing women in the place of fireworks.After thinking about it, he couldn't help but look annoyed, thanks to Li Chengen who got up to hang his clothes and didn't notice, otherwise he would be teased again.

Arranged Ye Ying to lie down, tucked in the quilt, Li Chengen put out the candle and fell asleep on his own.

Fingers rolled around the quilt unconsciously, Ye Ying was inexplicably nervous, "Cheng En."

"I'm here."

Hearing the howl of the strong wind sweeping through the tent, Ye Ying breathed lightly.

After a while, "Cheng En."

"I'm here."

The roar of artillery fire came from far away, accompanied by the footsteps of patrolling guards from far to near and the crisp sound of armor plates colliding.

After another half hour, "Cheng En."

"I'm here."

"Cheng En."

"I'm here."

"Cheng En."

"..."

Ye Ying finally laughed out loud, sat up and stroked her loose long hair, "I can't sleep." Li Chengen turned to look at him, his pupils shone brightly in the faint light, and smiled He said, "Could it be that Master Ye still accepts the bed?"

"The bed is cold." Ye Ying retorted calmly.

Li Chengen only thought that he was being childish again, so he joked, "Then you come down and sleep with me."

Unexpectedly, Ye Ying really groped and crawled under the bed, but she made a mistake and fell down. Li Chengen hurried forward to catch him, and the two of them rolled into a ball and hit the ground with a thud.Li Chengen's back was in pain and he didn't dare to make a sound. He grinned his teeth and gasped. Seeing Ye Ying giggle, he couldn't help pinching his face fiercely in frustration.

Ye Ying reacted very quickly, and quickly took a bite of his hand.Li Chengen was knocked on the back and bitten again, very unwilling to do so, and pressed him down with his backhand, Ye Ying struggled for a moment but couldn't hold him back, panting again and again, "Li Chengen, let me go quickly."

"It's rare that Master Ye throws himself into his arms, how can he miss this opportunity?" After finishing speaking, Li Chengen deliberately reached out and kneaded Ye Ying's chest.It was meant to be a joke, but he didn't notice that Ye Ying's action just now made the collar of the inner shirt open, and this time it firmly touched the naked skin.

"Li, Li Cheng'en!" Ye Ying had never been touched like this before. At this moment, he felt blood rushing straight to the door, his ears buzzing loudly, and the inexplicable sense of shame made him tremble.

"...(Ah, it's over)" Li Chengen gasped, hearing Ye Ying's anger, and retracted his hand embarrassingly, Ye Ying's expression could not be seen clearly in the dark, fearing that Ye Ying would be annoyed, he hurriedly helped him sit up , "I am teasing you..."

With a cold snort, Ye Ying tightened her collar angrily, hiding from her bewilderment for a moment, and noticed another problem when she calmed down.

He stretched out his hand and pressed Li Chengen's floor, his face darkened, "Why is there only such a thin layer, it's no different from sleeping on the floor directly." Li Chengen said helplessly, "There is no longer enough quilt, this quilt is still Qin's bed. The old general gave it to me."

"Come up, the bed is big enough." Ye Ying stood up and stretched the width of the bed, before she finished speaking, she sneezed.Seeing him naked for a long time in only his single clothes, Li Chengen coaxed him into bed and covered him with the quilt for fear of the cold, and then teased him like death, "Aren't you afraid that I will eat you?"

With a flash of golden sword energy, Li Chengen's inner garment was instantly torn.He looked at the instigator with both irony and laughter, but that person had no expression on his face, "General Li can give it a try."

Li Chengen surrendered, obediently rolled up the sheet and covered Ye Ying's body, and climbed in.

Squeezing next to Li Chengen's generous body, feeling the heat from the texture, Ye Ying was addicted to warmth, and couldn't help but leaned forward again, resting her head on his chest.Li Chengen hugged him tighter, "Is it still cold?"

Ye Ying shook her head, stretched out her hand restlessly to rub Li Chengen's face, and carefully traced his eyebrows and eyes with her fingertips, over and over again.Li Chengen let him toss his face tirelessly, and said in a low voice, "You can only look at me like this now."

The slender fingers paused and stopped on the cheek. Ye Ying said softly, "Being blind also has the benefits of being blind, why bother." Li Chengen sighed, opened his eyes and stared at Ye Ying's peaceful face, and stroked his fingers With the closed eyes, several years have passed, and the cutting pain in my heart is the same as back then.

"Self-harming your eyes must be very painful."

Hearing the bleakness in Li Chengen's voice, Ye Ying pursed her lips. After a long time, he curled himself up in Li Chengen's arms, resting his forehead on his chest, feeling his strong and regular heartbeat, "I know, the pain you have suffered , no less than me."

Li Chengen's finger combed through his waterfall-like hair, and stroked it slowly, the two of them were still in a daze, all they thought about was Ye Ying's blindness.
