And he privately reserved some of his energy to seize the gaps in his defense and organize an effective counterattack in time.
The continuous stabs that were impossible to defend against almost landed on her several times.
If the girl had not dodged in time, the victory that she had worked so hard to win would have been ruined.
I want to distance myself and readjust my mindset.
It’s a pity that her fighting spirit, which was constantly weakened due to her physical abnormality, did not give her the opportunity to prepare for battle.
Faced with the risk of collapsing at any time, the Duke of York had no choice but to fight to the death.
But the first effort may be strong, the second may weaken and the third may be exhausted.
Unable to find a new breakthrough and due to continuous loss of points, the Duke of York became more and more anxious.
Her moves were no longer as fierce as before. In front of Zhou Xuan, all her attacks were like flashy window dressing.
Just a little bit of encouragement can dissolve all her stubbornness and help her see through her own heart.
And with the whistle, until the end, this project that she had high hopes for was ultimately unable to save her from defeat.
She lost again, completely, along with her pride.
"It's Yu...who lost."
The Duke of York came to this conclusion in a daze, without his previous energy, and looked at everything around him with dull eyes.
Her eyes wandered, she wanted to see Zhou Xuan's expression at the moment but didn't want to.
It’s strange to say, he made such a boast beforehand.
Now that she had lost miserably, all she wanted was to hide in Zhou Xuan's arms.
Whether it's crying or laughing, as long as you can vent your emotions, it is enough.
Thinking of this, the girl suddenly shook her head, returned her gaze to its original position, and glanced at Zhou Xuan secretly.
Emotions flowed in her eyes, and her cold face was embellished with a faint pink, making her thoughts unpredictable.
He ignored Hao's sincere concern and looked at Zhou Xuan, who was the center of attention in the crowd.
The Duke of York turned his back on the cheering crowd and left quietly, leaving only a sigh.
Chapter 138: I lost my body and my heart
After a crushing defeat, this grand joint exercise ended with Zhou Xuan's complete victory.
The young commander became famous in one battle, but the stubborn royal knight disappeared from the scene.
In the next few days, Zhou Xuan never saw her again.
Whether it is the garden where they strolled together, or the office where they worked together.
With rich experience, Zhou Xuan naturally understands that the person who tied the bell must be the one to untie it.
So he chose this night to ask her out of the bedroom where they had made love together.
The flowers are in full bloom and the moon is full. The rose garden is much more beautiful under the moonlight than in the daytime.
The Duke of York came slowly, and her ethereal voice drifted into his ears along the wind.
"You really don't want to let me go for even a moment..."
"You slept with me in your arms all night, leaving a scent that belongs only to you on my body."
"Now that you have won, you have ignored other people's feelings and called me here in such a hurry."
"Are you so worried that I might turn against you?"
There was a kind of compromising helplessness in the sarcasm. When she got closer, Zhou Xuan could finally see her face clearly under the moonlight.
He no longer had the arrogance of before, and there was an unconcealable weakness in his pretending to be strong sarcasm.
With a look of haggardness on her face, she looked like a rose with its thorns removed.
The alienation and coldness revealed on the surface are just to cover up the little strength left in oneself.
Seeing that he stood there without saying anything and did not respond for a long time, the girl ignored her tentative heart and continued speaking.
"I am a member of the royal family and have the integrity of a knight. I would never do such a thing."
"I will keep my promise. I will go with you, but I may need some time..."
"A little time to accept reality."
The more she spoke, the lower her voice became, until it finally became just a whisper, echoing only in her ears.
Although he didn't hear the second half of her sentence clearly, Zhou Xuan didn't rush to answer because he knew the true heart of the beauty behind her awkward posture.
Instead, he took a step forward, stretched out his hand, and gently, firmly grasped her wrist, leaving her no chance to dodge.
"What are you...doing!"
"Why are you holding my hand for no reason? I don't remember you being such a frivolous person."
He shouted loudly, but did not immediately choose to shake off the big hand that was sticking to his body with a tough attitude.
After realizing it belatedly, she began to tentatively try to pull back her little hand.
After hitting a wall several times in succession, he simply stopped struggling in vain and just let others do whatever they wanted.
Maybe it was just a coincidence.
After his efforts, the girl's melancholy instantly receded.
The little wild cat, whose fur had stood on end, came back to life and started staring at him with a resentful look.
It seemed that he wanted to vent his anger in this way for the setbacks he had suffered recently.
What a picture of repaying kindness with grievances. When his kindness was treated as a donkey's liver and lungs, Zhou Xuan could only feel amused and helpless.
Like coaxing a child, the big hand that was in pain went up and touched her nose, then said with a smile.
"Who told you that? I never worry about the duck in my hand flying away easily."
"The reason I asked you out was just to ask you a question."
"Are you ok?"
"When you left that day, you didn't seem quite right. These past few days... I've been worried about you."
His feelings are sincere and behind his usual self-confidence is the tenderness that is unique to young people.
Every word Zhou Xuan spoke seemed light and airy, yet it was like a heavy hammer, striking her heart again and again.
It took her by surprise and made her a little bit unbelievable.
"You...what did you say?"
"I said, I'm worried about you."
It was as if he was worried that the noisy wind would drown out his feelings.
Zhou Xuan raised his voice, moved closer to her, and repeated it in front of her.
His pupils were still contracted, maintaining his previous surprised look.
But in private, the burning heart at that moment had already been trembling violently in secret.
To be honest, this was the first time she received care from the opposite sex, especially from someone stronger than her.
A rare sense of relief arose out of nowhere, and this feeling made her feel uneasy for a long time.
At the same time, her eyes were fixed on Zhou Xuan.
She wanted to see whether Zhou Xuan's performance was as sincere as he said when facing her scrutinizing gaze.
And when suspicion and sincerity rub against each other and collide with each other, finally, as the defenses of the hearts gradually open, they gradually blend together.
It was not the hypocrisy of just playing around. The more she looked at him, the more she could feel the affection behind the boy's face.
The Duke of York didn't know how to react for a moment as the complex emotions flooded his heart.
If she removed her inquiring gaze and just looked at Zhou Xuan with an ordinary girl's heart, she would even feel a little proud and complacent.
She completely let go of her grudges about fulfilling the bet and no longer rejected her true feelings.
If the monarch was present, she would just want to pull her ears open, then get close and speak loudly into her ear.
My silly sister Yo, the human commander from Iron Blood, your partner, has now become my captive and has completely fallen in love with me.
She didn't lose in this gamble where her life was at stake.
After a lot of twists and turns, it seems that she finally won....
"I'm fine, at least I'm fine now..."
After the unbridled laughter, there was a sense of relief and calmness.
No longer acting like a timid little woman, the Duke of York shook his head and spoke proactively.
"You came to me just for something like this?"
"If that's the case, I don't know whether to say you have nothing to do or you have good intentions~"
I don't agree with some of her views, but I also want her to remember my feelings.
Zhou Xuan then increased the strength of his grip and rubbed her small nose back and forth.
"It may be a small matter to you, but it's a big matter to me."
"This happened because of me. I don't want you to lose your fighting spirit and become decadent, wasting your life."
Having said this and now at this point, the two of them under the moonlight were already in that intimate and ambiguous posture.
While enjoying the caress from him, the Duke of York narrowed his eyes.
On the one hand, the girl frowned at his outrageous words and quickly gave her most powerful rebuttal.
"I am not such a person. Carrying the pride of the Royal Navy, I am confident that I will not fall under the feet of anyone."
"Just give up your vicious expectations. I won't let you get what you want."
"Besides, what makes you think you can do what Bismarck and the others couldn't do?"
Seemingly extremely satisfied with the powerful counterattack he had organized, seeing that Zhou Xuan was temporarily speechless, the Duke of York, thinking he had won, smiled triumphantly.
For her, it is not necessary to waste her life in decadence.
But from now on, his image may be deeply engraved in her heart and she will never forget it.
Just when she thought Zhou Xuan was speechless and was about to flee in disgrace, his response came immediately to prove himself.
Without saying a word, the hand holding his own immediately extended upwards to his chest.
He used her palm as a stepping stone for their intimate contact and pressed it directly on her heaving chest.
Then, through the contact of the back of my hand, I quietly felt the heartbeat from her chest.
One, two, and the sound is pleasing to the ear.
"Words can be deceiving, but the body's reactions cannot."
"Your heart is already beating so fast, what else do you have to say?"
"Don't tell me that you are tired because of your weak body."
Finally, he looked like someone he should be wary of. Zhou Xuan in front of him was smiling like an old fox with a thousand years of experience.
Relying on his own strength, he pushed himself closer and closer to a desperate situation, and now he has no chance to reveal his true face under disguise.
Logically speaking, I should be annoyed, or at least have an indignant and suppressed expression of anger.
But I could feel my heart pounding in secret, looking at the big hand pressing on my chest.
Not only was she not unhappy, but she also came up with new ideas from it.
Meeting Zhou Xuan's gaze, the Duke of York shook his head.
It seemed like he was silently acknowledging that he had nothing to say, but it also seemed like he was acting like a rogue in refusing to admit it.
And the final result was just as she expected. Zhou Xuan was stunned and couldn't help laughing.
She looked carefully, and fixed her sight clearly on the left side of the boy's chest.
At the same time, he glanced again and again at the warm palm that was placed on her heart, and his feelings flowed, the meaning of which was self-evident.
