Noble First Daughter-in-law

Chapter 324 Between us, don't owe each other too much

Tusheer's eyes flickered, and said, "I just went back to get it."

"..."

just?She was by her side just now, when did she get this?

And—almost immediately, she smelled a familiar breath from the windcloak tightly wrapped around her body, almost the same as last night, the breath that comforted her from the nightmare, exactly the same.

Suddenly, her breathing became heavy.

Cheng Qiao looked at her suddenly pale face, and said cautiously: "Young Madam, are you alright?"

Shang Ruyi shook her head: "I'm fine... I'm leaving."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and walked into the cabin.

Tusheer hastily followed, but just two steps away, she saw Shang Ruyi take off the cloak silently and handed it to her, Tusheer hurriedly said: "Miss, what are you doing, it's windy outside, be careful to catch cold!"

Shang Ruyi's face was a little pale, he only glanced at her, and said calmly: "I'm going back to my room. There is no wind in the room, so there is no need for this."

"..."

"Take it, this thing is not mine."

After finishing speaking, she went back to the room without looking back.

Holding the wind cloak in her arms, Tusheer looked at her thin but stubborn back, not knowing what to do for a while.

In the following time, Shang Ruyi didn't step out of that room again.

Even when Tusheer came to accompany her, she only said that she wanted to rest and asked her to leave, and the other servants naturally didn't dare to disturb her.This small cabin was originally like a fortress sheltering from wind and rain, but in such a quiet environment, it was more like a tomb.

It was so quiet, there was no sound.

However, quiet does not mean calm.

Even at night, gradually sinking into a dream, Shang Ruyi still felt uneasy in her heart, she felt as if she was in the deepest darkness, not only couldn't see the light, she couldn't even hear any sound.

The feeling of emptiness is like death.

It took an unknown amount of time before she felt something. It was her hand, which seemed to be grasped by another hand, holding something tightly.

When she realized that it was a long sword, her breath was suddenly suffocated, and she was eager to stop something, but she couldn't do anything, she could only watch her hand lift up the long sword, The flickering cold light of the sword's edge suddenly illuminated her eyes, and also illuminated the handsome face on the other side of the long sword.

Chu Yang...

He stood in front of her again, looking at her with a smile, his slender phoenix eyes were full of nostalgia and tenderness.

Shang Ruyi was in a trance for a moment, and she couldn't even tell whether it was a dream or reality in front of her eyes—maybe, she hoped that all of this was true, and that the most romantic man in front of her was not dead yet, and he was still living freely and freely.

But the next moment, she felt that her hand was lifted up, and the long sword was raised in front of him again. In her horrified eyes, the sword edge scratched her throat——

"No!"

Shang Ruyi hurriedly wanted to stop it, but it was too late.

All the nostalgia and tenderness in those slender phoenix eyes turned into cold gray at this moment, and hot blood once again flooded towards her overwhelmingly, engulfing her all at once.

"No! No!"

Shang Ruyi struggled and cried desperately, she wanted to grab something, but couldn't catch anything, even the person who fell in front of her disappeared into the sea of ​​blood immediately; after the blood engulfed her, even more It suffocated her, her cries became weaker and weaker, and she didn't even have the strength to struggle, just like that, slowly, she fell into the sea of ​​blood.

At this moment, a pair of hands grabbed her firmly.

Shang Ruyi's heart skipped a beat.

It was a familiar temperature and a familiar power, everything seemed to have happened before, after those hands grabbed her, they immediately embraced her in a warm embrace, and kept stroking her back gently For her comfort, the low and magnetic voice whispered in her ear: "It's okay, I'm..."

Those hands, that voice, and even the familiar breath emanating from that embrace seemed to be comforting her.

Shang Ruyi gradually became quiet.

After an unknown amount of time, she finally regained her sanity, but immediately, she felt a shudder again.

Just now, was it a nightmare?
However, the reality of waking up was not much better than the nightmare - she immediately felt that she was hugged tightly by someone.

This person is Yu Wenye.

He was only wearing a close-fitting thin coat, and he seemed to have rushed here. He didn't even fasten the belt, and his large and strong chest was exposed. When he hugged her tightly, he dyed more of his taste and breath into her. on her.

Shang Ruyi couldn't help trembling, and immediately broke free from his embrace.

There wasn't even a little light in the room, but she could still clearly feel that those bright eyes dimmed a little at this moment.

After a while, he whispered, "You're having a nightmare."

"..."

"I, I just heard the movement on your side, so come and have a look."

"..."

Shang Ruyi's breathing was still a little messy.

She didn't know how much noise she had made just now, which could make him come to check in the middle of the night. She just felt a weak feeling of weakness all over her body, as if the dying struggle in her dream just now was real, which made her even He didn't even have the strength to keep himself away from him.

After struggling for a while, she could only whisper: "Thank you."

The person in the dark was silent for a long time, and then said: "Even this, do you want to be 'fair'?"

Shang Ruyi only felt that her heart was still beating vigorously, making it difficult for her to breathe. Facing him at this moment, she didn't have any more strength to distinguish anything.

She just said "hmm".

Yu Wenye fell silent.

After an unknown amount of time, he spoke with a hint of self-mockery in his voice, "Shang Ruyi, you really know how to make people uncomfortable."

Shang Ruyi frowned slightly and looked up at him.

But under the dim light, only those bright eyes could be seen flickering slightly.She thought for a while and said in a low voice, "I just think it's best not to owe each other too much between us."

After speaking, she took a little more effort to support her body, and finally let herself back a little.

Then said: "I'm fine. You, please go back."

"..."

Yu Wenye did not move.

In the dark room, his eyes were still bright, staring at her scorchingly, and said, "I still have something to ask you."

Shang Ruyi only felt a headache, and the feeling of weakness that had haunted her for a long time returned to her body again.She could only reluctantly say: "It's too late, I don't—"

"During the day, why didn't you respond to Cheng Qiao?"

"...?"

Shang Ruyi's heart skipped a beat.

At this time, she couldn't care less about what she was with Cheng Qiao during the day, how would he know, how would he know what they said, she just raised her heavy head with effort: "What?"

Yu Wenye said: "His news was very timely. I also tortured Wo Xue, and she said, after you received the news, you went to see that person immediately."

"..."

"But you didn't report it, and you didn't even take any action to save yourself."

"..."

"why?!"

Shang Ruyi's body trembled again.

I don't know if the fear brought by the nightmare just now has not been completely dispelled, or there is a sharpness in his words that makes her heart gradually ache. She gritted her teeth, supported herself to speak, and said in a hoarse voice. : "Things have passed, it is meaningless to ask now."

"not have!"

Yu Wenye's voice was deep and firm, as if his eyes were surprisingly bright in the dark at the moment, quietly staring at Shang Ruyi, as if he didn't allow her to retreat in any way.

He said: "At least, let me understand one thing."

"..."

Shang Ruyi felt cold and hot all over her body, as if she was being tortured by some invisible torture, and in front of this person, she really had no way to avoid it, so she could only curl up and hug herself tightly, and said in a hoarse voice: "I Don't know what you understand, but I don't want to hear it. You go."

Not only did Yu Wenye not leave, but he even leaned forward, almost reaching her ear.

He said in a deep voice: "I know why you didn't report the news from Cheng Qiao to you, but stayed with him wholeheartedly! You accompanied him to the garden, went out with him, drank and had fun with him, and even , accompanied him to the Hall of Light. Even at the end, when he faced the imperial guards, he didn't care at all."

At this moment, his words made all those memories come alive.

Even more vivid than the scene in the dream just now, Shang Ruyi reached out to cover her ears, but Yu Wenye grabbed her wrists with both hands, and pulled her into his arms forcefully. One word, said clearly: "Because there was a news that entered Jiangdu that day - it was the news that my father raised an army!"

"...!"

Shang Ruyi leaned against his arms, trembling suddenly.

Yu Wenye clearly felt her trembling, he gritted his teeth, lowered his head to face the limp body in his arms, more like a hot body, and said through gritted teeth: "You think I'll join forces with him, right? "

"..."

"You think I don't care about your life, do you?"

"..."

"So, you accompany him—"

"I do not have!"

Shang Ruyi interrupted him all of a sudden, wanting to pull out her hands, but Yu Wenye's wrists like iron pincers did not allow her any chance to escape at all, her struggle seemed so powerless in front of him, she could only do her best Denial: "I didn't!"

But at this time, Yu Wenye didn't listen to any of her arguments at all.

Even that rebuttal is already so feeble.

He even hugged her directly into his arms, in the dark night, staring hard at the eyes that were already glistening with tears, gritted his teeth and said: "Shang Ruyi, I told you a long time ago, even if we are just Transaction, even if I have no feelings for you, I will not take advantage of a woman, and it is impossible to disregard her life."

"..."

"What's more, you, I--"
