Jiujiu knew that if she dared to dodge, Li Zixuan would not continue to believe her. Therefore, she met Li Zixuan's scrutinizing gaze and looked up into his eyes. She said firmly, "I want to marry you. Although it was indeed because of father and mother's last wishes in the beginning, but now, I want to marry you myself. 1357924? 6810gggggd”
Li Zixuan looked steadily into Jiujiu's eyes. After a long time, his thin lips curved into a smile. He lowered his eyes and said softly, "That's good."
After that, he lowered his head and gently kissed Jiujiu's lips. Looking up, a trace of madness flashed through his gentle eyes. He said in a low voice, word by word, "If Miss dares to go back on her words, I will kill you."
Li Zixuan's voice was very soft, like a feather floating by her ear. But the moment Li Zixuan said that he would kill her, Jiujiu felt a strong murderous intent.
She could feel that Li Zixuan's words were not a threat, but a simple statement of fact.
But it was his vague attitude that made people feel a chill down to their bones.
Jiujiu had been on missions for so long, but it was the first time she met such a strange person. He seemed gentle, but in fact, he was like a hedgehog full of thorns. Even if she had experienced countless years and seen all kinds of people, she still felt afraid.
Feeling Jiujiu's trembling, Li Zixuan laughed softly. His eyes curved like two beautiful crescent moons. Looking down at Jiujiu's eyes, his slender index finger gently touched Jiujiu's lips. The corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he said meaningfully, "Miss, you must remember what you said today."
After Li Zixuan finished speaking, he turned and left. His black satin hair drew a beautiful arc in the air.
Jiujiu had just recovered from her serious injuries and the residual poison was not completely cleared. After talking with Li Zixuan for a while, she felt her eyelids grow heavy and fell asleep.
When he woke up again, it was already the afternoon of the second day.
Li Zixuan, dressed in a black robe, stood in front of the desk with his back to her to deal with affairs. It seemed that he was aware that she woke up. Li Zixuan slightly turned his head, and his handsome face showed joy: "Awake."
Jiujiu struggled to sit up on the bed, but she didn't expect that it would affect the wound on her back. She couldn't help but gasp in pain.
Seeing Jiujiu sit up from the bed, Li Zixuan's face, which was originally full of joy, instantly darkened. His ink-black eyes looked at Jiujiu gloomily, and his beautiful lips were tightly pressed into a straight line. He said in a commanding tone, "Lie down."
Jiujiu took a deep breath and turned her head away from Li Zixuan. She said in a low voice, "I don't want to lie down."
Li Zixuan looked at Jiujiu with a gloomy face for a long time. Suddenly, he chuckled. His slender fingers were cold as he gently stroked Jiujiu's face: "Since Miss doesn't want to, then forget it."
After that, he called Qiao Die in to change the medicine for Jiujiu.
Even if Jiujiu liked to sit, after all, the wound was on her back. After sitting for a while, she felt a little uncomfortable and could only lie back down.
On the contrary, Li Zixuan, after seeing Jiujiu lie back down, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a faint arc.
The fact that Jiujiu was injured for him was like a point of time and space. From this moment on, Li Zixuan was no longer as gentle and polite in front of Jiujiu as before. Instead, he showed his true nature that he had been hiding.
Li Zixuan seemed gentle, but in fact, he was very possessive. It was probably related to his childhood experience of being abandoned. If he didn't put you in his heart, then he would change. But if he did put you in his heart, if you had the slightest bit of other thoughts, he would definitely crush you.
After Li Zixuan finished dealing with Yan Jia's matter, the lanterns were already lit. Jiujiu was drinking medicine with the help of Qiao Die.
Seeing Jiujiu's small pink mouth swallow the black medicine that had a strong bitter taste, Li Zixuan's feeling of discomfort because of Jiujiu's hand was instantly smoothed out.
Walking to the side of the bed, he took the bowl from Qiao Die's hand and replaced Qiao Die to feed Jiujiu the medicine.
After Jiujiu finished eating, Li Zixuan took a plum from the plate on the low stool and stuffed it into Jiujiu's mouth.
Jiujiu puffed up her cheeks and swallowed the plum. She turned to look at Li Zixuan and said in a low voice, "Have you been very busy recently?"
Li Zixuan rubbed his forehead gently with his right hand and nodded slightly.
Jiujiu was openly going against Prince Heqin's Mansion. Even though she had closed all the shops in Prince Heqin's fief, Prince Heqin was still a member of the royal family. How could he swallow his anger after being slapped in the face like this?
Although she could not openly deal with the Yan Family, it was impossible to guard against the dirty tricks behind her back. Therefore, Li Zixuan had been very busy recently.
However, he was used to being tough and did not have the habit of showing his wounds to others, so when Jiujiu suddenly asked him, Li Zixuan was only slightly stunned.
He turned to look at Jiujiu. Jiujiu's eyes were clear and her gaze was as clear as water. He could almost see his reflection in her eyes, as if he was the only one in her eyes.
Thinking of what Jiujiu had said yesterday, the corners of Li Zixuan's mouth involuntarily curled up. He reached out and rubbed the top of Jiujiu's head. Feeling the softness under his hand, Li Zixuan said softly, "I can still handle such a small matter."
After saying this, he paused. "When you recover, I will take you to Jiangnan. Is that okay?"
It was already early summer. When Jiujiu recovered, it would be early autumn. At that time, the weather would be neither cold nor hot and suitable for traveling. Jiujiu had been trapped in the residence for a month or two and had not gone out. She had long been unable to hold back. Now that she heard Li Zixuan say that he was going to take her out, she immediately looked forward to it.
Bai Juyi had once written, "Jiangnan is good. The scenery is old. When the sun rises, the river flowers are red. When spring comes, the river water is green like blue. Can you not remember Jiangnan? "
Jiujiu was someone who could not be controlled. In order to make Li Zixuan like her and to not be flustered when Chu Hexin appeared, she had been patient during this period of time and obediently stayed at home to learn how to manage the Yan family.
No matter how long Jiujiu had been on missions, to her, she always felt that she was only 18 years old.
It was not appropriate to let an 18-year-old girl stay in one place all day to learn how to do business.
Even though her injuries had not healed yet, Jiujiu began to look forward to what she would do when she reached Jiangnan.
Looking at the changing expressions on Jiujiu's face, Li Zixuan's thin lips curled up slightly.
Li Zixuan said something to Jiujiu, and Jiujiu could not help but feel sleepy.
After waiting for Jiujiu to fall asleep, Li Zixuan walked out of Jiujiu's room.
Li Zixuan's lips curled into a smile. The smile on his face was as steady as ever. He walked to the study and saw the secret guard in black who had been waiting in the study for a long time. The gentleness on Li Zixuan's face instantly disappeared. A hint of fierceness surged in his ink-black pupils, but his voice was clear and cold. "Speak."
