ecstasy

Gu Tingshuang looked at him steadily.

Ning Shiting gently pasted the gauze soaked in liquid medicine on his skin, his eyes were still downcast, his eyes were serious, his voice was trying to stabilize his emotions, and he could hear some trembling that was suppressed in his voice.

"My lord, I miss His Highness. But this is not the reason why I want His Highness to come after you." Ning Shiting said softly, "I have exhausted everything I should say in the dictionary. Your Highness, please be considerate. "

"I like you, it's my business, why do you apologize to me because of this?" Gu Tingshuang's voice was hoarse.At this moment, he no longer has the unruliness and hostility of a young man, but is just like a wounded little wolf, licking the wound aggrievedly, making grunts, seeking comfort from his own wolf.

His eyes also drooped, and he gritted his teeth in the gloom, fighting for his last breath.

"For ethic?" Gu Tingshuang asked, he stretched out his hand to hold Ning Shiting's hand - even if he intended or not, this action has been repeated many times since they met, even though Ning Shiting's gloves never left his hands , but he was still subconsciously startled.

Gu Tingshuang was the first and only person who was completely unguarded against him. Regarding the identity of the poisonous shark, even if he made repeated orders, Gu Tingshuang just ignored him.This kind of negligence has the unique willfulness and directness of young people, and nothing can shake it.

"Your Highness knows that the relationship between Chen and King Qing exists in name only, and His Highness tore up the marriage certificate." Ning Shiting said softly. "The ministers are all people who died once, don't care."

Gu Tingshuang didn't understand the true meaning of his words, and only thought that Ning Shiting's words meant changing the loyalty of a monarch.

He avoided his eyes: "then you just don't like me."

Ning Shiting looked at him quietly without saying a word.

"If you already have someone you like, I won't force it. But you don't." Gu Tingshuang said, "There are so many marriages in the world, there are so many match-making couples, even if I force you, you can't do anything to me .”

"Your Highness's words are already angry." Ning Shiting dipped a new handkerchief into the hot water and said softly, "I know Your Highness won't do this."

"Then what do you like?" Gu Tingshuang asked, with a certain stubbornness in his words, "I can give you whatever you liked about my father in the past. If you want me to say, in terms of ambition and heart, I am far away. I am above him. I am not as scheming as he is, as mean and ungrateful as he is, and as old and experienced as he is. I admit these, but I will grow up in the future, my experience can improve, and I can go to the battlefield. You are not in Xizhou. The people in the house manage well. Maybe you think I am childish and naive, but this is me, and you have to like me like this."

"Your Highness has always been smart and has a sharp eye." Ning Shiting said, "Your Highness has grown up."

"Then you give me a reason, and I can wait." Gu Tingshuang said, "As long as you give me this reason, I won't pester you, I will just accompany you, and when you want, you can tell me."

His eyes are clear, stubborn and simple.

Ning Shiting thought for a while, moved his lips, and finally let go of what he was doing: "I have never thought that Your Highness is childish or naive. In my eyes, Your Highness... is the best thing in the world."

Gu Tingshuang looked at him, slightly widening his eyes.

He had never heard such blunt and frank words here at Ning Shiting—or, in other words, there seemed to be a similar scene before, when the shark's slender fingers brushed his hair, and said softly: "Your Highness looks good today."

So gentle and clear, it was the first ray of light that broke into his world.

"My lord... I know that Your Highness has already decided to fight for me, and now that His Highness has made up his mind, I can't persuade you to go back on your word when things come to an end." Ning Shiting said, "Your Highness has given me too much favor, and I can't bear it." , This is the answer. Your Highness is with wolves, and knows that the world is vast and freedom is precious. And in my life-before I was five years old, I began to feed poison on my body and was domesticated into a poisonous shark. A knife and a tool in hand. After that, it's Your Highness."

"I want to leave His Highness, and I also want to live for myself once. I already understand His Highness's intentions, but His Highness is too young, and this feeling is too heavy, which makes me... feel a little tired." Ning Shiting said softly, "Your Highness should be I'm selfish, you entered the world for me to take the dust-avoiding beads, I can't agree to His Highness, just because I still want to spend a while in this ungrateful way, and find the life I should have lived when I was alone, so that I can be better Relaxed, because I have lived so far, I have never really lived for myself once, and I have never let myself be self-willed."

He asked in a low voice, "So...Your Highness, can you understand?"

His fingertips under the wet towel were cold, and he raised his head and smiled at him.

He couldn't say anything to his heart's content, because Gu Tingshuang knew him so well - he could see the turmoil of his thoughts under every look in his eyes, and he was able to win every silent mediation with him.

When he saw Gu Tingshuang covered in blood in the formation, Ning Shiting knew that he had been defeated.Perhaps even earlier than that, when he was remembered everywhere during his travels, he had already suffered a crushing defeat.

He couldn't win against this passionate young man.

But he can't watch him die because of himself. Bu Cangqiong's book of the third generation is known all over the world, and everyone in the fairy world knows that the reincarnation of fate has already been set, and there is never a case where changing fate against the sky can be achieved.

At least this answer can be accepted by Gu Tingshuang.

"I understand." Gu Tingshuang was silent for a long time this time, as if digesting what he said, "Then you... should have told me earlier."

"It's because I didn't think carefully, Your Highness." Ning Shiting said softly. "I didn't think about it before, and I couldn't tell His Highness what I haven't figured out yet."

"So you actually think I'm a burden, but there's nothing to criticize. People always become another person's burden, such as me to my mother, and little wolf to me." Gu Tingshuang said.

Ning Shiting could see that the young man in front of him was suppressing the grievance in his heart, trying to speak calmly, not only to express that he understood him, but also to persuade himself.

He looked at him quietly.

"Some people have to have a reason to live, some for themselves and some for others, there is nothing to criticize." Gu Tingshuang muttered in a low voice, "But when you were at my father's place, you never thought of living for yourself. , When I came to my place, I suddenly thought, it’s not fair to leave me. I know it’s a good thing, but it’s not fair.”

Ning Shiting turned his head and smiled, feeling a bit sore in his throat.

"It is precisely because His Highness has been so kind to me." He said, "It also made me feel nostalgic and selfish."

Turning his head away, Gu Tingshuang couldn't notice the slight redness in his eyes.

"It's really unfair." Gu Tingshuang said softly, "You go out first, I want to think about it alone."

In the courtyard, the moonlight is like water, and the broken snow is flying.

The little wolf snorted and took the bucket in his mouth, panting and galloped up, and put the bucket in the courtyard.

It grew up a bit, but when it saw Ning Shiting, its ears pricked up, froze for a moment, and then shrunk back to its original size: the ears haven't become pointed like adult wolves, but are fluffy and round Yes, the glass-colored eyes are also round

It crouched at the gate of the courtyard, looking at him timidly.

Ning Shiting sat down by the porch, leaned slightly like before, and stretched out his hand: "Little wolf."

This sentence seemed to trigger some kind of switch, and the little wolf rushed towards him howling like crazy, crashed into his arms, knocked him to the ground, and slammed into his arms howling, It seemed that the little furry wolf was about to cry too.It frantically licked Ning Shiting's fingertips wearing Luoshui mist, rubbed against his chin desperately, and finally lay on his chest and didn't move, just hugging him very attached.

Ning Shiting hugged the little wolf tightly, took a deep breath, and looked up at the half-covered sky above his head.Stars hung on the sky in the early morning, gentle and silent.

He lay there quietly, letting the little wolf hold him down, tears streaming down his face without a sound, without blinking his eyes.

"You have to stay with him, little wolf." Ning Shiting said softly, "You have to stay with him no matter what."

Gu Tingshuang was not included in the ending of "Wish Comes True" in the book of the third generation, so he didn't care.

Perhaps this is the meaning of his coming back in this life. In his previous life, he couldn't change anything, but in this life, he only needs Gu Tingshuang to live well and have a complete and happy life.

"I figured it out."

Gu Tingshuang's voice came from the door, "I'll wait for you. I don't interfere with what you want to do, where you want to go. But Ning Shiting, only when you are in danger, no matter what you say, I will Come here, you can't refuse this."

Ning Shiting said softly, "Okay."

"I'm sleepy." Gu Tingshuang said, "Where do I sleep?"

His previously aggrieved and stubborn expression had disappeared, replaced by pretending to be calm, and the turbulent turmoil behind the calm.

"Your Highness does not dislike it, just sleep here now. This is the practice room where I was a teacher when I was young." Ning Shiting said, "If Your Highness feels small, I will go and tidy up the master bedroom on the west side for Your Highness."

Gu Tingshuang looked at him, seeming to be deliberating: "If I say I want to sleep with you - I promise not to do anything, will you feel pressured?"

Ning Shiting looked at him.

Gu Tingshuang turned the wheelchair inward and muttered, "But my head hurts. Little wolf won't press my head."

Ning Shiting was silent for a while, then said softly, "Okay."

Little Wolf squatted beside him, his ears pricked up, and Gu Tingshuang was also taken aback.

Ning Shiting didn't say anything more, he stretched out his hand to support Gu Tingshuang to lie down, then fetched water for him to wash up, followed by washing himself, put on his wide robe, sat on the bed, and lay down on his side.

Just like he always did before.

Gu Tingshuang was lying face to face with him, breathing carefully.

When Ning Shiting's fingertips were pressed against his temple, Gu Tingshuang involuntarily grabbed his wrist, then let go as if realizing something, and reached out to gently hug his waist.

The little wolf jumped up and lay down on top of them.

Ning Shiting didn't move, and didn't say anything else. After pressing his temples for him, he said softly, "Your Highness, go to sleep."

Gu Tingshuang then closed his eyes.

In fact, he didn't fall asleep right away, and he could also feel that Ning Shiting was not asleep.The shark exudes a pleasant fragrance, and the soul-returning fragrance soaks into the bone marrow. He does not resist, does not stiffen, but just lowers his head gently, as if pressing his cheek against his chest.
