When Mo Rongzhan heard that the little girl in his arms was willing to embroider another pouch for him, a brilliant smile bloomed in the depths of his eyes. He gently pecked her pink lips. "I'll wait."
Ye Zhen leaned in his arms, listening to his steady and powerful heartbeat, her cheeks blushing. "But my embroidery is not very good. You can't dislike it."
How could he dislike it? It was a treasure he could not ask for.
"I don't dislike it."
"Hong Ling should be back soon. You should go." Ye Zhen sat up straight and reached out to push him.
Mo Rongzhan tidied up her clothes. His eyes fell on the kiss marks on her chest. His eyes became deep and gloomy. "She won't be back so soon. Don't worry."
Ye Zhen didn't notice where his eyes were looking. When she heard him say this, she immediately widened her eyes. "You sent someone to stop Hong Ling?"
"It's so rare for me to see you." How could he allow others to disturb them?
"You are really …" Too bad! Ye Zhen glared at him. "I want to go outside and have a look."
If she continued to be alone with him here, he would certainly not know what he would do to her again.
Mo Rongzhan glanced at the door. "I'll take you out."
Ye Zhen guessed what he was going to do and looked at him expectantly with a pair of bright eyes.
"There are too many people here. There is a circus on the other side. Have you seen it?" Mo Rongzhan asked in a low voice, taking his cloak and wrapping her up, revealing only a small palm-sized face looking at him with a smile.
"My father took me to see it once, but there was no circus. I sat on his shoulder and watched it for a while. Later, my mother wouldn't let him take me to such a lively place." Ye Zhen whispered, with a regret that even she didn't notice.
Mo Rongzhan smiled and said, "You can't sit on my shoulder if you want, but I can hold you and watch."
Ye Zhen blushed and cried, "I don't want you to hold me."
"Let's go." Mo Rongzhan smiled faintly, reached out and hugged her waist tightly, pressing her whole body into his arms.
"What if we are discovered?" Although Ye Zhen said so, her hands were already around his waist.
A faint smile flashed across Mo Rongzhan's eyes. "What else can I do?"
Ye Zhen smiled and buried her face in his arms, letting him pick her up and jump out of the window. She only felt the cold wind rustling in her ears. After jumping up and down a few times, he finally stopped with her in his arms. The noise around her also drilled into her ears.
"We're here," Mo Rongzhan said with a smile, helping her tidy up her cloak. "Let me show you."
His cloak was very big and warm. Ye Zhen looked at him wearing only a brocade robe, but holding his hand was still warm. She stretched out her other hand to hold his arm, looked up at him and smiled softly. "Are you cold?"
The corners of Mo Rongzhan's eyes were filled with a clear smile. "I'm not cold."
There were a lot of people around them, going back and forth, but Ye Zhen felt that they were the only two people left in the world. He held her with one hand and blocked the people around her with the other, so that no one would bump into her.
"Ah Zhan, look!" They soon arrived at the place where the acrobatics were performed, just in time to see someone coming out with a tiger.
She remembered that he had been scratched by the tiger in order to save her, and held his arm tightly with both hands.
"That's a tiger with its teeth pulled out." Mo Rongzhan looked down at her, reached out and gently put his arm around her shoulder. "Don't be afraid."
Ye Zhen stood on tiptoe, watching the lazy and tired tiger performing a jumping ring of fire. She asked him in a low voice, "Why were you willing to save me in the first place?"
He knew that he would be seriously injured if he rushed to save her, but he still did it without hesitation.
Mo Rongzhan remembered the fear when he saw the tiger pouncing on her. "I can't bear to see you get hurt, and I don't want to lose you."
Ye Zhen pursed her lips and smiled, suddenly feeling that the tiger's performance was dispiriting. "Let's go somewhere else. I don't like watching this."
A tiger without its sharp teeth is no longer the king of the mountain. It's not worth watching at all.
"Do you want to make a wish?" Mo Rongzhan asked with a smile.
"Is it very efficacious?" Ye Zhen raised her eyebrows and asked.
Mo Rongzhan nodded lightly. "Someone once made a wish to have a son early. The next year, he really gave birth to a son."
There was nothing wrong with this statement, but Ye Zhen thought about it carefully. Her cheeks flushed in an instant and she glared at him fiercely. "I don't want to make such a wish."
"What's wrong with having a son early?" Mo Rongzhan said with a smile.
"Then why don't you make a wish?" Ye Zhen snorted.
The smile in Mo Rongzhan's eyes grew wider. "Aren't you and I the same?"
Ye Zhen twisted his arm and did not speak.
"There are opera singers over there. Do you want to see them?" Mo Rongzhan said, pointing to the other side.
"Why are you so familiar with this place?" It was as if he knew everything.
Mo Rongzhan encircled her in his arms, not letting others touch her. "I came here a few times when I was a child, but then I couldn't see … I didn't come here. However, this place has not changed for many years. It should be the same."
Ye Zhen gently touched his eyes with her fingers. "Your eyes … When did they start to lose their sight?"
"When I was thirteen or fourteen years old, I don't remember." Mo Rongzhan said with a smile. "If it weren't for the fact that I couldn't see, I wouldn't have met you."
Therefore, he no longer complained about the two years in the darkness. He was even grateful for those two years of darkness in exchange for her sweet smile.
Ye Zhen felt distressed. If he hadn't accidentally eaten the medicinal diet she prepared for Mo Rongyi a year ago, he would still be suffering from pain. "In the future, with me here, you won't be poisoned again."
Mo Rongzhan chuckled. "It's a deal. You have to stay with me."
"Well." Ye Zhen nodded with a smile.
They stood on the street and talked. Many people couldn't help but look sideways, especially when they saw the gentle smile on the man's face. Many women were infatuated and looked at Ye Zhen with envy and jealousy.
Ye Zhen curled her lips and pulled Mo Rongzhan to another place. "Why do you always stare at others?"
"Jealous?" Mo Rongzhan looked sideways at her pouting mouth with a faint smile in his eyes.
"So what if I'm jealous?" Ye Zhen admitted generously. She just didn't like the way those women looked at him.
Mo Rongzhan whispered in her ear, "I'll only show it to you in the future."
"You're lying." Ye Zhen snorted. "I've seen you dote on other women."
"…" Mo Rongzhan's handsome face flashed with embarrassment. "Yao Yao, what you said didn't happen in my memory. Since I met you, I haven't doted on other women."
Ye Zhen knew that he didn't dote on others in this life, but she couldn't help feeling a little jealous.
Moreover, she remembered very clearly that he was emotional and excited when he was with her, even when he was with other women in his previous life.
"I know …"
