Chapter 270: His Childhood Sweetheart
because An’er was born with a leg ailment, you haven’t set foot in my palace again. If it weren’t for my brother’s help, you would probably have let me and An’er fend for ourselves in the palace. Yes...Xiao Yu Ge turned her head to look at him, only then noticing the blood seeping from his arm: "Your wound is bleeding!" It must have been when he was holding her just now, he used too much force and reopened the wound.
He glanced at the wound with unconcern, then pulled her into his arms with a big hand, letting her lie on his chest. A sinister voice came from his ear, "It's okay, this little injury, it won't be a problem even if we consummate the marriage right away."
"You're talking nonsense!" Xiao Yuge's profile pressed against his warm chest, listening to the steady and powerful beat of his heart. She couldn't help but feel a blush on her face and her heartbeat became erratic. In his strong embrace, she felt incredibly petite. The large hand around her waist, even through their clothes, allowed her to feel his warmth, causing her heart to skip a beat unexpectedly.
"Qiantingxuan..."
She looked up wanting to say something to him, and he just happened to lower his head to meet her gaze. Everything was so coincidental, so perfectly aligned. His hand went around her head, pulling her closer, greedily devouring her beauty...
"Little song..." Just as she was about to lose control, Qian Tingxuan still regained his composure. He held her tightly in his arms and with difficulty suppressed the desire that was about to tear him apart. He wanted to give her a memorable wedding night, not such a hasty and careless affair.
Xiao Yu Ge leaned against his chest, listening to his ragged and heavy breaths. She couldn't tell if it was her heartbeat or his, so fast and loud that even the wind couldn't drown it out. She knew this was wrong, but she also found herself increasingly unable to resist him. She lingered on the scent of ambergris on his body, lingering on the gentleness he gave her...
She let out a sigh: "If she had met him first in her past life, how wonderful it would have been!"
"Qian Tingxuan, thank you for giving me a dream, a very beautiful dream..." After calming down, she stood up. The sky was getting dark, and they had to continue their journey. Over the past month and a half, everything they experienced, even that intimate moment, she would always remember. Tomorrow she could return to Beijing. Once back, their relationship couldn't be as pure as it was now.
"Fool, this isn't a dream." He kissed her hair, his low voice filled with allure.
"No, to me, it's a dream..."
"Little Song, what's wrong" Her words caused Qian Tingxuan to unconsciously frown, pulling her closer. That look again! She was still just a child, yet she had that ethereal gaze; it was as if there were unspoken sorrows and shattered light hidden within her eyes. Despite knowing everything about her, despite her past being a blank slate, why did her eyes always seem to hold such unvoiced anguish Even though she was beside him, in his arms, he felt an insurmountable distance between them.
"It's nothing, let's go, don't keep them waiting." She smiled and took his arm, that unreal smile blossoming again on her beautiful face. She reached up and wiped at the corner of his mouth: "You got some of my lipstick, you have to wipe it off, don't let them make fun of you later."
"They are jealous and envious." Qian Tingxuan did not pursue the matter further. He knew that there were still secrets hidden within her, secrets she couldn't reveal. Since that was the case, he was willing to give her time, waiting until she completely trusted him before sharing everything.
They hurried all night, and by the next morning, the imperial city was already in sight.
"Here we go again." Gazing at the towering city walls, Xiao Yu Ge's eyes held little joy. In her past life, she had been trapped within these very walls. This time around, she would not make the same mistake.
"Wherever you want to go after this, I'll accompany you." Qiantingxu stroked her head, feeling her helplessness, but he couldn't understand it.
Xiao Yu Ge heard the words and raised her eyes: "Then would you give up everything for me"
"Yes!" he almost replied without thinking: "Because, you are everything to me. To him, she was his whole world. Where there was her, there was home.
It is said that the Lord of Thunder Pavilion is cold-blooded and ruthless. That's because the people who appear in his eyes are not her! His coldness and ruthlessness make him a sharp blade, taking lives mercilessly; but when he cares, he becomes even more powerful, capable of unleashing devastating power if anyone dares to touch her.
Gazing at each other, even without words, a smile shared speaks volumes. She saw the depth of his affection, and he saw the vastness of stars in her eyes.
"Come on," he smiled, extending his hand to her.
Looking at that broad hand, she seemed to already feel his warmth. She hesitated for a moment, then slowly raised her own hand...
"Tiger Cub Brother!"
At that moment, a crisp and gentle voice suddenly rang out. A white jade hand quickly grabbed Qian Tingxuan's outstretched hand, and the next second, it plunged directly into his arms.
Xiao Yu Ge slowly retracted her hand, looking at the alluring woman who had thrown herself into Qian Ting Xuan's arms, she thought to herself: Who is she!
"Third Brother, you're finally back! I missed you so much!" The woman hugged him tightly, oblivious to anyone else around, and poured out her longing.
"Mǐnróu" Qián Tíngxuān came back to his senses and frowned, subconsciously pushing the woman in his arms away.
The woman pushed aside, some disappointed wronged: "Brother Tingxuan..."
"Min Rou, when are you coming back" Qian Ting Xuan's voice sounded a bit cold, completely unlike the gentleness he had towards Xiao Yu Ge just now.
"I've been back for several days, and I heard you were coming back today so I waited here especially early."
As it turns out, she is Fang Minrou, the Princess Consort of Chiyan who married at the age of sixteen!
Xiao Yu Ge finally looked at the woman in front of him. She had a standard beauty's face, with delicate makeup and slightly raised eyebrows that hinted at a hint of allure. At first glance, she was beautiful, so beautiful that it made one forget her age. Her slightly plump figure added a touch of nobility.
At that moment, Fang Minrou also noticed Xiao Yuge, turning back in surprise with a flash of astonishment in her eyes, but more so envy: "Who is this little sister" She couldn't believe that there were women in the world who were even prettier than her, and she was standing beside Brother Tingxuan!
Beside him, Qian Tingxuan took up her words: “She is this king’s…”
“Oh, I see. You’re so small, you must be Thunder’s little sister. Hello, my name is Fang Minrou. I grew up with Thunder. What’s your name” Before Qian Tingxuan could finish his sentence, Fang Minrou snatched the words away from him, not giving him a chance to speak at all.
Her words, both spoken and unspoken, hinted that Xiao Yuge was still young. It was also as if she was telling Xiao Yuge that she was the childhood sweetheart who grew up with Qian Tingxuan, and no one could take her brother away from her.
"My name is Xiao Yuge," Xiao Yuge replied faintly.s she roared in desperation."Yes! We must meet the Holy One!" The other three adults also reluctantly agreed.Over these past few days, they were subjected to all sorts of torture. Ordinarily, if they...
