Chapter 186 - 135: Nuannuan, I Love You
Throughout the entire day, Yun Chunnuan didn’t get a moment’s rest.
By day, she treated Jifeng’s illness and took care of the little wolf cub.
But when the man innocently asked her ’why’?
Yun Chunnuan was exasperated!
Your Jifeng, your little wolf cub, why even ask?!
With strength she didn’t know she had, she lifted her hand and rubbed that handsome sun-kissed face vigorously, "Guess what, should we check the west wing for your treasures? And...you jerk!"
Yelyu Lie blinked his clear amber eyes, instantly understanding.
The face that looked particularly radiant today was kneaded into dough by her, yet he didn’t dodge at all.
It was as if he suddenly came to a realization, and let out an ’Oh~’.
The rising tone made people even more angry!
Only then did Yelyu Lie finally stop smiling...
Oh no!
It should be said he was trying hard to hold back his laughter.
Yun Chunnuan: "?!?!"
Damn!!!
凸(艹皿艹)凸!!!
She’s seen thick-skinned people! But someone this thick-skinned is really rare!
What nonsense is he spouting without a care for his dignity?!
"It’s all your fault! Not using your brain at all! How could you not think, with how wise and clever Mother is, how would she get hurt by that damned Queen? If it weren’t for..."
As Yun Chunnuan was about to continue speaking.
She saw that the man’s smile gradually disappeared from his face.
In his eyes was a pain that couldn’t be hidden.
It stung her eyes and burned her heart...
"Husband?"
The soft voice, gentle as a warm little hand, could soothe everything.
Yelyu Lie hooked his lips, showing a bitter smile, "Do you know why I tolerate Yelyu Nalan?"
"Isn’t it because you both have the same plight? Her mother, I’ve heard, is from the Central Plains..."
"Ha." He sneered, with a tinge of bitterness on his sharp lips, "I once had a sister, the most innocent and cutest little girl I ever knew. Unfortunately, she drowned and died, her small body retrieved from the lake, completely unrecognizable..."
Yun Chunnuan’s heart jolted, "Was it...the Queen’s doing?"
The man licked his dry lips, "The cause of death remains unknown until now, but her last playmate was the Eldest Princess born of the Queen."
Yun Chunnuan’s heartbeat quickened, "Is that Eldest Princess...still alive?"
"Of course." He smiled, "Not only alive but will live for a long time."
That chilling smile was rarely seen on the face of the Barbarian General,
He was always so warm, sunny, like a small sun, illuminating her at every moment.
She thought his heart held no shadows.
But until this moment, Yun Chunnuan realized that some shadows cannot be dispelled with sunlight.
She held back her strength and clasped his large hand in return, "Husband, in the future, we will honor Mother together, I’ll be her daughter. Do you think she will like me?"
The sweet and soft voice could wipe away all the dust on him.
Yelyu Lie pulled the little sweetheart beside him tightly into his embrace and gently kissed her lips, as if he could never get enough, "She will, there is no woman more endearing than my wife in this world, not just Mother, who couldn’t like her?
If there are any, it’s jealousy! Jealous of my Nuannuan for being beautiful like a fairy, gentle and kind, lively and lovely..."
"Alright, why are you and Qiao’er so alike, just love blowing rainbow farts!"
"What’s a rainbow fart?"
The little sweetheart chuckled, "It’s mindlessly flattering, saying even farts can be praised to be colorful like a rainbow!"
The outfit on the little sweetheart was newly brought in by the palace attendants in the bathhouse.
Unlike the plain white before, it was a fresh goose yellow color.
It set off her soft, white skin that seemed even more tender and smooth.
A pair of black and white phoenix eyes, crystal clear, with a smile displaying a mischievous charm, making her even more adorable.
With her delicate eyebrows raised slightly, sweetness filled her features, her cute small nose, delicate pink lips, dimples rippling in her rosy cheeks, captivatingly charming.
Just looking at her, Yelyu Lie’s heart felt like it had been soaked in a honey pot for ages...
Very sweet, very warm, very satisfying.
What had he done to deserve this?
"Nuannuan, have I ever told you, I love you."
Yun Chunnuan’s heart skipped a beat.
Even though she knew this man adored her.
