The prince disliked her, and the legitimate daughter was reborn and married to the regent

In a dark alley late at night, a woman was walking hurriedly, stopping from time to time to look around vigilantly.

The surroundings were quiet, with no other sounds except her slightly heavy breathing. She probably felt that she was being a little suspicious, so she stopped looking.

"Are you a little tired?"

Behind her, among the two people who were following not too far away, the taller one spoke. His low and hoarse voice seemed even more ambiguous because of the close distance.

"It's too close. You don't really need to hide your voice like that, do you?"

Yun Nian rubbed his ears. No matter how many times he did it, he still couldn't get used to this overly intimate distance. But, it didn't seem like he hated it.

She couldn't tell what she felt. Shyness and uncontrollable impetuosity surged up at the same time, and she seemed unable to control her emotions.

The gentle voice floated in the air. If there were people with strong martial arts skills around, they might have picked it up. But even Wei Qingjue had no intention of stopping her.

"Still laughing. You must have known about this a long time ago, right? And I'm the only one who was kept in the dark."

While she was talking, the man next to her gently held her waist, and when the person in front of her turned around, he hid at the corner.

The distance that had been pulled apart disappeared at this moment, and the two bodies pressed tightly together, and the refreshing night also felt the scorching heat.

"You didn't ask me,"

The chest in front of him trembled slightly, and a low and hoarse laugh sounded above Yun Nian's head. She heard the other party say again,

"Besides, you are so smart, haven't you already discovered that Lin Zhu is actually deaf?"

Catching up with the woman again, her staggering steps and non-functioning ears allowed Yun Nian to follow her effortlessly without worrying about being discovered.

The pair of bright eyes stared back, colliding with the pair of dark green eyes.

"If she hadn't paid attention to me when I called her so loudly last time, and she always looked at my lips when I spoke, I probably wouldn't have known that she couldn't hear me."

Although some secret guards are good at lip reading, they can accurately analyze what others say when they can't hear each other face to face and respond appropriately. I have to admit that Lin Zhu is amazing.

"After all, she is also a killer of Feiyu Tower. It's just a pity that her martial arts seem to have disappeared."

Although he said it was a pity, there was no regret in Wei Qingjue's tone. He just stretched out his hand when Yun Nian was a little out of breath, letting her borrow strength.

"How can she walk so well?"

The girl panted as she spoke, beads of sweat running down her forehead.

They had been following Lin Zhu for nearly a quarter of an hour. This town wasn't very big to begin with, and if they kept walking, they might have to leave the city.

Not far from the city gate, the woman suddenly stopped, looked around to see that there was no one around, pushed away a large rock on the side of the road, and jumped down, disappearing without a trace.

Since the person has already gone down, there is no need to conceal his whereabouts. Yun Nian approached the stone with a complicated expression. When he saw the dark entrance of the cave, his face showed that it was indeed the case.

"Should I say it's not surprising at all? Feiyulou, maybe it's the reincarnation of a mole."

With such a fondness for digging holes, Da'an should be thankful that it has not been hollowed out.

A light laugh came from his ear, and Wei Qingjue pointed at the cave entrance.

"So, do you want to go down?"

"No, let's wait for her to come out. Anyway, this cave won't run away, and we have enough time to explore it clearly."

Having said this, Yun Nian simply opened his arms to Wei Qingjue without any self-consciousness.

"Let's find a place with a better view. We'll be able to spot her as soon as she comes out here. If there are other people with her, we'll alert them."

She tilted her head and looked at the roof of a dilapidated restaurant opposite the stone. A tall flag was fluttering in the wind, but she couldn't see what was written on it because of the darkness.

Suddenly, she lost her support under her feet. After leaving the solid ground, her heart unconsciously floated up. Yun Nian's open hands suddenly tightened and wrapped around Wei Qingjue's back. Her fingers slightly tugged at his clothes, pulling up the wrinkles.

The wind seemed to suddenly become stronger. It was only for a moment, but Yun Nian's heart could not calm down until his feet stepped on the smooth tiles.

Her long hair, which had already reached her chest, slowly fell down, rising and falling noticeably with her breathing. The man who caused all this consciously withdrew his hand after bringing Yun Nian up, but moved his body a little closer to ensure that he could always protect the girl beside him.

“Is this location okay?”

It was just in a position to see the secret passage, but it would not be easily discovered by people coming out. Wei Qingjue rubbed his chin, and when he heard no response, he turned around to take a look.

"Ok?"

"Very good, here it is."

Yun Nian answered without thinking, and actually didn't even glance at the stone. Her brisk tone didn't let Wei Qingjue notice anything unusual. The dark night obscured the evasive expression on her face.

"That's good."

Damn it, this kind of thing has been done many times by Wei Qingjue, Zuo Mingyuan, Xiyu and Huo Daiyu. She is used to being held by the waist and flown to high places, but it has never been like this. Her heart is so light and she can't calm down at all.

In this quiet atmosphere, her heartbeat was so violent that Yun Nian had to curl up and press her chest, hoping that the sound was not loud enough for people around her to hear.

It seemed that something had changed since the moment she fell. Wei Qingjue, who was still gentle and willing to give her whatever she wanted,

But there seemed to be something strange and tough hidden in the words of obedience, just like a beast disguised as hunting prey finally couldn't help showing its fangs.

She was thinking about herself and didn't notice that the person next to her had a slight smile on his face and his eyes drooped slightly. He seemed to be staring at the stone, but in fact, his eyes were on Yun Nian.

How long would it take? Wei Qingjue didn't know, but the pearl that had protected itself so tightly finally opened its shell to him.

Even if it was just a tiny gap, unable to even reach his greedy claws in, but, what did it matter? He had enough patience and willpower to wait until Yun Nian completely opened her heart to him.

The two were clearly just leaning against each other, but there was an inexplicable air current surrounding them. The thick clouds slowly dissipated as time passed, revealing a faint moonlight.

"coming."

Wei Qingjue said softly.
