It was already very late at night. Song Qiyuan gently pushed open the door. The candles in the room had already been extinguished. He walked to the bed. The person lying on it had already fallen asleep and had no intention of waking up even after he came in.

He wanted to wake her up as usual, but saw that she was dreaming about something and her mouth was pouting and moving. He reached out and pinched her soft face, pausing delicately, "Why are you like a pig? You won't wake up even after this..."

Perhaps speaking in a louder voice would be more convincing.

He untied the weapon from his waist, turned her over to the bed, pulled her to his side, put his head on her shoulder, pressed his nose against her skin, and closed his eyes in relaxation. The dark circles under his eyes were more obvious when he closed his eyes, and there was still a murderous coldness between his eyebrows. When he spoke just now, there was also some imperceptible fatigue in his voice.

He sniffed the scent of Ruan Ruan's body. The milky aroma was a bit sweet, slowly covering up the bloody smell in his memory. He rubbed it naturally.

He left in the morning without waiting for her to wake up. Only after Ruan Ruan woke up did she realize that he had come back last night.

There was a smell on her body, a mixture of sweat and blood, which was not a pleasant smell, but had become very light. She asked for water to bathe and had someone change her bedding.

Song Qiyuan hadn't been back for two days, and there were fewer people in the village, all men. He might have gone down the mountain to kill people again. She didn't ask.

However, since he was gone, there was no need for her to stay on the mountain. So she asked him to let her go down the mountain, even if she had to let someone follow her.

Ruan Ruan took out a note from beside the pillow. On it were the words she had left for him before. He was in such a hurry that she didn't know whether he had picked it up to read it. Who would have thought that he didn't wake her up this time.

Despite this, she still had some expectations. She quickly scanned the paper and saw two cold words under her handwriting:
[turn down]
She put her hand down in disappointment, angry that he wanted to trap her, even though she was a prisoner to begin with... She had to talk to him again.

"Can I come in?"

As if she had heard this voice before, Ruan Ruan put the note back in her hand, and walked over slowly to open the door without any hurry. She was dressed like a man, without earrings, with her long hair tied up behind her head, and without makeup. But she had a fair complexion and a slender figure like a girl, and she didn't look like someone who had experienced hardship.

"Yin Mian." She deliberately lowered her voice.

Ruan Ruan turned around and let her in.

This should be considered the third time they met. The first time was at the wedding banquet, and the second time was also here. On the first day after the wedding, she came to deliver food. Song Qiyuan heard the noise outside and went over. Ruan Ruan only saw her back as she left, with the food box placed by the door.

Her gaze was very obvious. Ruan Ruan poured herself a glass of water and looked at her straight.

She was slow to speak, and Ruan Ruan was getting impatient waiting, [What do you want to say? ]
"You should know who I am. I like Brother Song, and he promised..." Yin Mian tried hard to hold back the sob in her voice, "to take care of me all my life... I don't understand why he would choose a mute instead of me..." She shed tears and her voice was sobbing.

"...Do you know what he has been busy with these days? The government wants to suppress bandits, and the situation is not optimistic. I know medical skills... I can help him... But you just hide in the house all day."

"I'm asking you now, do you want to go with me?"

She raised her voice, "Isn't there any reaction to what I've said?"
