Chu Qiao's life and death promise

Yu Wenyue had recuperated for a few days, and her physical condition gradually improved, but Chu Qiao often disappeared mysteriously. Sometimes she went away for half a day, and sometimes she returned late at night. Yu Wenyue noticed it and never asked.

As the night falls, the willow branches in the small courtyard are new, and the moonlight is scattered, which has a special atmosphere.

On the stone table in the courtyard, the tea cup was still cold, Yu Wenyue sat alone on the stone bench, slender fingers slid across the cup wall, picked it up, but did not drink it for a long time.

A burst of unintentional footsteps approached slowly, Chu Qiao carried a jar of wine, walked through the corridor, walked over, saw Yu Wenyue smiled, sat down in front of him, looked at the stone table another teacup on the table, and asked:

"Xiao Ce is gone?"

"Just left." Yu Wenyue put down her teacup and looked at Chu Qiao.

Between the girl's brows and eyes is a lively and charming scenery. Under the brilliance of the moonset, her fair skin can be broken by blows. In the past, he always felt that her temperament was cold and unfeminine, but now he realized that he was very wrong. One side has always been reserved for the eyes of the person she is willing to be seen.

it's him.

Chu Qiao smiled coquettishly, her smile was like a flower, and she slid her fingers around the mouth of the wine jar, and the cold aroma of wine wafted into her nostrils.

"Going out all day, just went to drink a jar of wine?"

Yu Wenyue raised her eyelids, looking hard to dismiss.

"This is no ordinary wine," Chu Qiao patted the wine jar, "Qinhuai River Canal No. It’s hard to find.”

Chu Qiao hurriedly presented the treasure.

"Treasurer Jin?" Yu Wenyue chuckled, "I'm afraid you didn't ask for this wine, but you snatched it."

"No, no, the children of the world don't know each other, but he really gave me this wine." Chu Qiao said with a smile.

"Yes," Yu Wenyue nodded, "It is more cost-effective to give a jar of wine than to give a life."

Chu Qiao chuckled, "Why do you say that I look like a female bandit?"

"Aren't you?" Yu Wenyue glanced at her, "I still remember how I was taken away as a straw bag on the boat."

Chu Qiao coughed lightly, "Master Yue shouldn't keep remembering some trivial things."

"It's the first time in my life that someone scolded me as an idiot face to face, but it's not so easy to forget."

"Please fill this cup up, sir, and make amends for you as a star." Chu Qiao poured a glass of wine and brought it to Yu Wenyue.

Yu Wenyue twitched the corners of her lips, and accepted it with dignity.

"Try it. It is said that the crew of the shopkeeper Jin heard the method from foreigners when they went to sea. It is brewed with the grapes of the season. The taste is very strange." Chu Qiao looked at Yu Wenyue expectantly.

The wine was fragrant and mellow, slightly sour and sweet, Yu Wenyue took a sip and frowned, as if she was not used to drinking it.

"How is it?" Chu Qiao looked at him well.

"If you look at me like this, I will think that you have drugged your wine, so that I will be so stunned that I can do whatever I want." Yu Wenyue gave Chu Qiao a meaningful look.

"I, I don't have it." Chu Qiao's heart skipped a beat at his glance.

"It's not bad, but it's not like wine, neither strong nor strong." Yu Wenyue smiled, looked away, and looked at the dark red liquid in the glass.

"Really?" Chu Qiao poured herself a glass and tasted it, "It's not really like wine, but it's delicious."

The girl smiled beautifully, her pink lips were stained with fine wine, Yu Wenyue's eyes fell on those lips, and she smiled.

"Looking at your appearance, I think your cup seems to drink better."

"How come? They are all the same." Chu Qiao looked at her cup.

"I say it's different, it's different."

As Yu Wenyue said, she leaned over suddenly, pecked Chu Qiao's lips, poked her nimble tongue in, swiped, kissed, and then sat back.

Chu Qiao was startled, and a blush gradually climbed to her ears.

"It's true that yours tastes better." Yu Wenyue came to a conclusion.

"..."

Pleasant courtyard, quiet and leisurely.

No surveillance, no temptation, no hunting, no assassination.

This rare peace seems like a world away.

Yu Wenyue and Chu Qiao sat opposite each other, slowly drinking the wine that the female bandit robbed, chatting about the past in detail.

Occasionally laugh, occasionally sad.

"Yu Wenyue, do you know that every time I make up my mind to kill you, I wish I could die first..."

"I don't know when it started, the idea of ​​revenge has become more and more vague, but the idea of ​​wanting to stay by your side has become more and more clear..."

"I heard Yue Qi say that you went to the mass grave to find me that day, and I was... very happy."

"I was always confused at the time, not knowing why I was living in this world. After the wooden beads were untied, I finally had a goal. I went to Yanbei to find Mr. Wu."

"I thought I would be like my mother, guarding the land she loved, but after so many things happened, I was not sure. The Yanbei that my mother wanted to protect was the same Yanbei in my eyes. ……"

"Why do people change when they get close to power? He used to be such a sunny and open boy, why did he become like this..."

"What did Xiuli's army do wrong? Why did he drive them all to death? That's Yanbei's army!"

"What did the people of Hongchuan City do wrong? Why should they be sacrificed in vain? Those are his people!"

"What did Mr. Wu do wrong? What did Wu Danyu do wrong again? Why this? Why this..."

Chu Qiao was a little drunk, she leaned against Yu Wenyue's arms, and in her mouth she recited the things since she parted with him. When talking about Yan Xun, she was lonely, and when talking about Xiulijun, she was in pain.

These emotions that are buried deep in the heart and have nowhere to vent, once there is a gap to pour out, they become out of control.

Yu Wenyue kept silent, wrapped Chu Qiao in her arms, stroked her back over and over again, and gave silent comfort.

"That day on the frozen lake, you don't know how much I regret, I regret that I restrained the urge to leave with you on the day I met you in the mountain temple, I regret that every moment I have been with you is not Cherish it well, I regret that I didn't take good care of my servant on the last day... Take a closer look at you."

Chu Qiao suddenly grabbed Yu Wenyue's skirt, buried her face in his arms, and hugged him tightly with both hands.

"Yu Wenyue, you must live well, no matter where I can see it or not, you must live well."

Yu Wenyue paused, lowered her head, raised Chu Qiao's chin with her hand, and looked straight into her tear-stained eyes.

"If you want me to live well, do it somewhere where you can see me, otherwise, I can't guarantee it."

Chu Qiao raised her head to look at him, and saw her own shadow in that starry gaze.

She straightened her chest, raised her head, hooked his neck, and then moved towards the warm thin lips, and gently pressed it...

The moonlight is dense, and the willow branches are swaying.

The quiet courtyard was empty, and the two people at the stone table disappeared at some point.

The ambiguous candle in the room jumped a few times and went out...
