Lord, your mask fell off

Chapter 876 The Day of Heji and the Ceremony of Ji

When she woke up in the morning, there was no sign of Xiao Xu around her, and she woke up from the drowsy drowsiness, thinking that they had left while she was asleep.

While looking left and right, she was relieved when she saw the brave knights passing by and the big ice cubes among the crowd.

She went to the stream to wash her hands and face. She felt sticky on her body. She must have sweated from a nightmare last night. Seeing the clear stream in front of her, she really wanted to jump down and have a good wash. endure.

When they came back, everyone was still resting.

She couldn't help being surprised, and stopped Huo Ling who was passing by, "Aren't you going to start today?"

Huo Ling said with a serious face, "This time, the brothers were seriously injured. The master said to take another day off and set off again tomorrow morning."

Hearing this, Chu Qingyan scanned all the people present, and sure enough, everyone was disappointed. She nodded to Huo Ling, "Okay, you can go to work first!"

After saying that, the Huo Ling in front of him didn't leave immediately, Chu Qingyan couldn't help but look at him, "Just tell me if you have anything to say."

Huo Ling touched his head and smiled when he heard the words, "The little princess is so smart, she guessed immediately that the subordinate had something to say."

"Don't hesitate, just speak up." Chu Qingyan also smiled.

Only then did Huo Ling speak, "Little Princess, although it is not kind to say so, this subordinate still very much hopes that you will not return to Jiangnan."

Chu Qingyan was surprised, she thought that they all felt that they were a burden, and stood in the united front with their master, "Why?"

"Although the master doesn't say anything, everyone can see that this battle is very difficult and difficult to fight. Whether you can win or not is still the same thing. The master has always cared about you. Every time we go out to fight, we can't come back It may be frustrating to say this, but this subordinate still wants to say, in times of crisis, I hope you can accompany the master."

When he said this, Huo Ling looked past her and looked at the person not far away, with admiration and deep concern in his eyes.

Chu Qingyan was shocked by what he said. For some reason, she felt a deep sense of sadness. War is cruel. It will tear up wives, destroy families, make people homeless, life and death are unpredictable.

She pursed her lips and nodded solemnly, "I will do my best to stay by his side."

"With your words, my subordinates can rest assured. On the front line, my subordinates will swear to defend your safety." Huo Ling said with straight eyes and chest straightened.

After Huo Ling left, Chu Qingyan still hadn't recovered from the aura he exuded just now.

This may be the courage of the so-called heroic rider!

Once identified, I will follow to the death!

How lucky she is to know such a group of hardcore loyal souls!
Just when she was distracted, two eggs suddenly appeared in front of her eyes. She blinked before seeing Yanluo's smiling face.

"Little girl, happy birthday." Yan Luo smiled brightly at her, and then stuffed the egg into her hand, "I asked Jinxin to find this, I don't know if it's a bird egg or something, it's wild. The ones in Jiaoyeling, you can just make do with it, noodles or something, you can make up for it next time!"

Chu Qingyan's hand felt warm to the touch, she looked down at the small egg, a sense of happiness welled up spontaneously, these days her thoughts were all on the big ice cube, she had already forgotten that today is her birthday , she thanked Cheng Yanluo, "Thank you, this is already very good."

"If you have anything to say, save it to your big ice cube." Cheng Yanluo put her hands on her shoulders, then turned her around for her, and pointed to the person under the tree, "You should go to him to ask for a gift today." Yes."

Chu Qingyan's face turned red involuntarily, "This is not very good!"

"What's there to be embarrassed about, go!" Cheng Yanluo pushed her forward, not forgetting to cheer and encourage her.

Chu Qingyan had no choice but to walk slowly.

At this time, everyone around Xiao Xu saw Chu Qingyan, and retreated knowingly. Before leaving, they did not give her a cheering look.

She blushed with shame.

When Xiao Xu saw the person walking towards him, his long hair stood up high and fell behind his head, his clear and beautiful face could be seen at a glance, but there was a little more hesitation in his usual bright smile, and he couldn't help raising his eyebrows.

"Here, here's one for you." She still couldn't do things like asking for gifts, and she was no longer a three-year-old child, so she stopped struggling and handed him the things in her hand.

Xiao Xu looked at the egg, but didn't reach out, "Eat two to keep you safe."

Chu Qingyan was stunned for a moment, then silently withdrew her hand. It turned out that everyone except herself remembered the matter of her birthday.

"Today, I will ask the earth spirit to take you back." Seeing her embarrassed face, Xiao Xu slightly curled his lips, but said in a tense voice.

As soon as she exerted force subconsciously, the eggshell shattered in her hand, and she looked at the person in front of her in disbelief.

"You still want me to go back to Jiangnan?"

The eyes of the person in front of him were too bright and clear, so he couldn't help looking away, looking elsewhere, and said in a flat tone, "Yes."

Chu Qingyan's expression suddenly turned to anger, "On my birthday, you actually want to drive me away?"

"Ayan—" Xiao Xu frowned and looked at her.

She didn't pay attention to his stern look, what else should she care about if he let her go.

"I don't care, I won't go back, what can you do with me? In name you are just my fiancé, but we are not married yet, so you can't restrict my freedom of life, okay, now you go your way, I Cross my single-plank bridge!" She said indiscriminately.

If he wanted her to go back wholeheartedly, then she would simply express her attitude. She knew that what she said was a bit too much, but compared to going back to Jiangnan and waiting anxiously for his news, and worrying about his safety, long-term pain is worse than short-term pain.

"Ayan, you—" Xiao Xu's anger was filled with surprise, helplessness and awe.

The unfinished words are persuasion without knowing how to continue.

Xiao Xu suddenly felt that it was a wrong decision not to marry her immediately.Otherwise, he wouldn't be speechless today, and has no position to decide anything for her.

Of course he could force her to go back, but he didn't want to, and he couldn't.

Both of them were silent, and a sad atmosphere surged between them.

Maybe it was his reaction that left her confused and guilty again, Chu Qingyan hesitated for a moment before stretching out her hand and tugging on his sleeve, like a child who has done something wrong.

"I'm sorry, I said the wrong thing, it's not what I thought," she pursed her lips, and said in a self-defeating manner, "If you are angry with me, you can choose to ignore me."

The softness of the person in front of him warmed Xiao Xu's chilly heart.He sighed softly, "Ayan, I'm not angry."

Hearing his response, Chu Qing's face brightened, she approached and threw herself into his arms, then raised her head pitifully.

"Then can I not ask for a birthday gift, you just promise me one thing, let me be with you?"
