The Cosmic Age: Subverting the Universe

After being whipped, Nalan Yanran's body was covered with red whip marks. She lowered her head, tears welling up in her eyes. Yun Yun looked at her, a hint of complex emotions flashed in her eyes, but her tone was still firm: "Yanran, go take care of Xiao Yan."

Nalan Yanran raised her head with an expression of disbelief on her face, "Master, I don't have the face to see him." When she thought of her previous attitude towards Xiao Yan, she felt ashamed in her heart.

Yun Yun sighed softly, walked to Nalan Yanran, and whispered: "A lady from a noble family should behave like a noble lady. Since you two have already tied, the divorce letter is useless. He is your husband now, and he has been wandering outside for so many years. Shouldn't you take care of him?"

Nalan Yanran was silent for a moment, as if thinking about Yun Yun's words. She recalled the hardships and difficulties Xiao Yan had gone through outside, and a complex emotion surged in her heart. She nodded and whispered, "It seems to be the case."

Although she was still somewhat reluctant, Nalan Yanran still dragged her heavy steps and slowly walked towards the room where Xiao Yan was. She pushed open the door and saw Xiao Yan lying on the bed, his face flushed, and he seemed to be still asleep.

Suddenly, Xiao Yan murmured in his drunken dream, his voice carrying a trace of unspeakable sadness and unwillingness: "For you, for you, I have been practicing all the time, all the time, but you finally abandoned me. Ha, abandoned me, abandoned me. Why! "

Nalan Yanran stood aside, her legs softened, as if the words in the dream had struck her deep in her heart. She recalled those days in her childhood, when Xiao Yan had practiced day and night for her, just to be worthy of her, just to be able to walk side by side with her.

Those scenes emerged in Nalan Yanran's mind one by one. She seemed to have returned to that innocent time and saw Xiao Yan who gave everything for her. Tears unconsciously welled up in her eyes, wetting the corners of her eyes.

A complex emotion surged in her heart, including nostalgia and guilt for the past, as well as helplessness and confusion about the present. She knew that she had done something wrong, but she also understood that she could no longer go back to the past.

Nalan Yanran took a deep breath and tried to calm her emotions. She knew she needed to face reality and take responsibility for her actions. She walked towards Xiao Yan, sat down gently on the bed, and looked at his familiar face.

"Xiao Yan, I'm sorry." Nalan Yanran whispered, "I know I did something wrong and made you suffer a lot. I will do my best to make up for my mistakes. I hope you can give me a chance."

Xiao Yan seemed to hear Nalan Yanran's words in his drunken dream. His brows slightly wrinkled, as if he was experiencing inner struggle and pain. Nalan Yanran looked at him, her heart full of helplessness and expectation. She knew that no matter what the future held, she would do her best to make up for the mistakes of the past and protect Xiao Yan, who had given everything for her.

Xiao Yan slowly opened his eyes, and the scene in front of him gradually became clear. He saw Nalan Yanran sitting beside the bed, her eyes were red and swollen, obviously she had just cried. Nalan Yanran saw him wake up, and hurriedly stood up, looking at him nervously.

Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect to wake up at this time, and he didn't expect to see Nalan Yanran's expression. A complex emotion surged in his heart, with both memories of the past and doubts about the present.

Nalan Yanran looked at him, took a deep breath, and mustered up the courage to say: "Xiao Yan, I... I know I have done a lot of wrong things and made you suffer a lot. I really regret it, and I hope to make up for my mistakes."

Xiao Yan looked at her, was silent for a moment, and then slowly said: "Yanran, the past is the past, we can't change it. But if you really want to make amends, then from now on, use your actions to prove your sincerity."

After hearing this, Nalan Yanran's eyes flashed with a determined light. She nodded and said solemnly: "I will, Xiao Yan. I will do my best to make up for my mistakes, and I will use my actions to prove my sincerity."

Xiao Yan looked at her, with a complex emotion in his eyes. He knew that it was not easy to get over the hurdle in his heart, but he also understood that Nalan Yanran really wanted to make amends. He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.

"Okay, Yanran. Let's start from the beginning and get to know each other again." Xiao Yan said.

After hearing this, Nalan Yanran's eyes flashed with joy. She nodded and said softly, "Thank you, Xiao Yan."

Outside the door, Qin Luoluo and Su Che were lying on the crack of the door, curiously peeking at the situation inside the house. Su Che asked nervously, "What's going on?" Qin Luoluo replied excitedly, "Don't worry, it's almost done, almost done."

Nalan Yanran in the house had fulfilled her responsibilities as a wife. She took good care of Xiao Yan, gently cleaned up his wounds with a towel and fed him medicine. Her gentleness and thoughtfulness made Xiao Yan feel a long-lost warmth.

Xiao Yan also cooperated with Nalan Yanran. He tried hard to adjust his mentality and no longer dwell on the grudges of the past.

Xiao Yan watched Nalan Yanran taking good care of him. Her figure looked even more graceful under the dim light.

Xiao Yan's heartbeat accelerated unconsciously. He suddenly felt a strong urge to hug her tightly and get closer to her.

As the alcohol gradually took over, Yao Lao said in fear, "There is medicine in the wine, a medicine that I can't even detect. Xiao Yan, wake up and don't do anything stupid!"

However, Xiao Yan ignored Yao Lao's call. He stood up, walked to Nalan Yanran, and hugged her gently. Nalan Yanran was startled by his sudden action, but then she felt the warmth from him. She did not push him away, but let him hold her tightly.

Xiao Yan's breath blew gently in her ears, with a hint of alcohol and heat. He lowered his head and kissed her lips gently. At that moment, it seemed that all the sounds disappeared, leaving only the breathing and heartbeats between the two of them.

Nalan Yanran's heartbeat was also accelerating. She closed her eyes and let Xiao Yan's kiss linger on her lips.

At this time, Qin Luoluo, Su Che and Yun Yun were lying by the door, peeking at the scene inside the house through the narrow crack. Under the warm yellow light, a pair of figures hugged each other tightly. This warm scene made Qin Luoluo excited, and she couldn't help but say, "It's done, it's done!"

Su Che and Yun Yun were not as excited as Qin Luoluo. They looked at the scene in front of them and instantly felt ashamed, with a blush on their cheeks.

Yun Yun whispered, "Oh, let's go." She felt a little embarrassed and uncomfortable and wanted to leave this embarrassing place as soon as possible.

Su Che also nodded, thinking that it was not appropriate to stay here any longer. He pulled Qin Luoluo away, and Qin Luoluo resisted: "Oh, let me watch for a while, there is no outsider here."

Su Che ignored Qin Luoluo's resistance, picked her up resolutely, then turned around quickly and left this place that was not suitable for staying for a long time.

After returning to her room, Qin Luoluo immediately shouted in dissatisfaction: "Su Che, what are you doing? Put me down!" Su Che slowly put her down after hearing this, but Qin Luoluo's dissatisfaction did not dissipate. She pinched Su Che's arm angrily, and Su Che screamed in pain.

Qin Luoluo's behavior surprised Su Che. He frowned and looked directly at her. Qin Luoluo was a little scared by his eyes and couldn't help asking, "What do you want to do?"

Su Che did not answer, but suddenly approached Qin Luoluo.

Seeing that he was about to kiss her, Qin Luoluo was startled and quickly stepped back. She pushed out Su Che with a burst of energy, and then quickly closed the door.

Behind the door, Qin Luoluo covered her chest, her heart still beating, as if announcing her inner panic. Her cheeks were red, as if they were exposed to the scorching sun in summer, hot and warm.
