away from the heart

Chapter 168 Privately Determined For Life 1
On a moonlit night, the cold wind rustled.

Chuyue wanted to turn over, but Xue Yao held her waist tightly with one hand.She stretched out her hand from under the quilt: "I've been obediently going to bed and covered myself for a long time, I don't feel cold anymore..."

Xue Yao gave an "um", but still held her in his arms, closed his eyes and did not speak.Chuyue coughed: "Well... have you thought about it, or will you agree to elope with me?" Xue Yao is still um.

Chuyue was a little excited: "Then let's go quickly while the moon is dark and the wind is high."

Xue Yao finally opened his eyes: "Who wants to elope with you?"

Chuyue sat up angrily from the bed in an instant, "What do you mean?"

Seeing that Chuyue's face was instantly covered with a layer of disappointment, he burst out laughing, very relieved, and pushed her back on the bed, "It's not yet time to elope, I want to be with you openly."

"But I think that Xi is not willing to let go, and it is even more impossible for the father to agree..."

"I know." Xue Yao nodded seriously, "The emperor agreed to the marriage because he coveted Xizhao's mines. It seems to be jointly developed. He wanted to use our Nansang craftsmen to reclaim the mines, and finally broke the contract and killed them."

Chuyue looked at Xue Yao suspiciously, but only saw his sharp jawline, "Is there such a thing?"

Xue Yao lazily pushed Chuyue's upraised head back into his arms, "Xizhao has my eyeliner, and I'm already looking for evidence. In short, I won't let Xizhao succeed."

"But the current marriage, father will not take it back." Chuyue sighed, as if she wanted to leave everything outside her mind behind, and buried it deeply in Xue Yao's chest.

"So, we can only...cut first and then play." Xue Yao stared at Chuyue pointedly.

Seeing the malicious smile on his face again, Chuyue let out a scream, shrank into the quilt, and warned indistinctly: "You, what are you thinking about!"

"You pretended to be a court lady, stole Naxi's waist card, and went out of the palace to meet me late at night. If this matter gets out, it will definitely damage the face of the royal family. But if you want to cover it up, it's easy. Before the matter gets out, Let you become my wife first. In this way, even if the emperor is displeased, you are already the daughter-in-law of my Xue family. After all, the Xue family is still protected by the iron certificate of the alchemy bestowed by the former emperor, and the emperor will not It's too much to ask." Xue Yao pulled down the quilt, revealing Chuyue's eyes, "When the sun comes up, let's buy some things and make a private decision for life, okay?"

Chuyue shyly exposed a pair of eyes outside the quilt: "Okay... okay."

Xue Yao sniffed it, and suddenly frowned: "No, you've been drinking, what if you don't admit it after waking up?"

Chuyue blinked hard: "I'm awake, if you don't believe me, I'll sign it for you!"

Xue Yao suppressed a smile: "Signing and drawing? It's a good idea."

Xue Yao got closer and closer, and Chuyue shyly shrank back under the quilt.

Chuyue said in a muffled voice, "Hurry up and get the pen and paper."

Xue Yao kissed Chuyue's mouth, affectionately: Don't make noise, I'm signing and you are signing.

The rest of the complaints were too late to be uttered, they were already sealed by his lips.Xue Yao tasted the sweetness of her lips deeply and shallowly, wishing to bite her into pieces and rub her into his body.

The candlelight was flickering, and Chuyue suddenly smiled.

Xue Yao was frustrated and a little annoyed, "Don't laugh at this time."

Chuyue ignored her and looked out the window, but only said, "Xue Yao, your flowers are blooming really well."

Xue Yao pampered Chuyue's face with his thumb, "You are still drunk, it's already the beginning of winter, where did you get the flowers?"

Chuyue suddenly put her arms around Xue Yao's neck, "Yes, few flowers bloom in winter, but with you by my side, I feel like spring all the year round, and hundreds of flowers bloom."

Xue Yao held back a smile and scratched her nose, "I'm very drunk, it seems that no matter what I do tonight, you won't be able to remember."

Chuyue clutched her chest and said nervously, "You, what are you going to do?"

Xue Yao rubbed her chin against her head, "Sleep, there are still many things to do tomorrow."

Chuyue buried herself in his chest, and responded in a low voice, "Oh."

Xue Yao looked at Chuyue in his arms and smiled quietly.

Inside the house, the oil lamp was quietly turned off, and outside the window, the moon hid in the clouds.
