Zhang Ning woke up groggy, staring at the top of the bed curtain with slack eyes.
The system that watched the mosaic all night said numbly: "You're awake."
Zhang Ning moved his arms, moved his lower legs with difficulty, and suddenly said: "Actually, if you don't fall in love..."
System: "Huh?"
Zhang Ning: "It's good just like this?"
System: "...Why do you use a questioning tone?"
"Oh," Zhang Ning nodded suddenly, and then said firmly: "It's very good not to fall in love!"
System: "..." It now feels like it has become a bunch of gibberish.
Zhang Ning buried his head in the quilt and giggled, the corners of his mouth were almost hooked to the sky. After hearing the sound of the door being pushed open, he quickly lay down and fell asleep obediently.
This time there was no sound of the wheelchair, and the slight sound of footsteps stopped in front of the bed. Zhang Ning said to the system: "Oh, man, I'm too lazy to pretend."
The system said: "Heh, I'm too lazy to pretend to be with you."
Zhong Liyuan sat down by the bed, reached out and touched Zhang Ning's forehead, and said in a low voice, "Ashu."
Zhang Ning pretended to just wake up, pretended to open his eyes, and flinched and hid when he saw him.
The system that witnessed all this: "..."
The finger on the forehead trembled slightly, and was retracted as if nothing had happened. The corners of Zhong Liyuan's lips were pressed straight, and he said calmly and naturally: "Is there any discomfort?"
Zhang Ning seemed to recall something, his face suddenly turned pale, he pursed his lips and shook his head.
Zhong Liyuan stopped talking and stood up.He is tall, with a straight back when sitting in a wheelchair in the past, with a sense of oppression that has been battle-tested.At this time, he was tall and straight, with a tall and straight figure, and his sharp eyebrows were thickly colored, blending into his ice-jade face, suppressing his weak and sick appearance.
His body leaned slightly towards the bed, and before he could fully bend down, he saw Zhang Ning subconsciously propped himself up, with a frightened expression on his face.
Zhong Liyuan paused, then stood up straight again, and said in a low voice, "Your father wrote a letter."
Zhang Ning immediately looked up at him, and Zhong Liyuan seemed to be interested in Zhang Ning, so he simply said this sentence, so that Zhang Ning would look at him more.
He fetched Zhang Ning's clothes again, and forcefully pulled Zhang Ning from the side of the bed.
Because of yesterday's chaos, Zhang Ning's clothes could not be worn anymore, Zhong Liyuan brought a new set of clothes, and put Zhang Ning's coat on without saying a word.
Zhang Ning still remembered what he said just now, and was hugged stiffly in his arms. It took a long time before he spoke in a low voice, with a hoarse voice: "My father..."
Zhong Liyuan said: "The letter is in the study, you can read it by yourself later."
A cool hand touched Zhang Ning's cheek, and smoothed the hair on the side of his ear behind his head.The two sat on the bed facing each other, looking like they were intimate.
The person who came to deliver the letter was an eunuch, and it would take half a day to come from Jiucheng Bieye.
The letter from Duke Hu Guo was only a few words, in which he briefly stated his recent situation, and asked about all matters in the mansion, including the health of the Duke Hu Guo's wife and Zong Shihe.
On weekdays, Zhong Liyuan was busy with business affairs, but today he never left Zhang Ning. After we went to the study with him, Zhang Ning was reading a letter, and he was leisurely studying ink, and asked, "Do you want to reply to your father?"
Zhang Ning had read the letter over and over several times. Hearing the words, he tentatively asked, "Is it okay?"
Zhong Liyuan bent his lips and smiled, but there was no smile in his eyes, as if he thought he asked a ridiculous question, looked at his cautious appearance, and said, "Of course."
He chose a brush, handed it to Zhang Ning, and said slowly: "I'm not imprisoning you, you can do whatever you want."
"Except for wanting to leave."
Zhang Ning: "..." All right, if you say no, then it's not.
When Zhang Ning was about to write the letter, Zhong Liyuan didn't stay here to read it, and even closed the door behind him after exiting the study.
Seeing him leave, Zhang Ning immediately sat on a chair and wrote quickly. He first answered the Duke Protector's concerns, and then took a piece of paper to write about what happened to him in the past few days.
"Hey, for the sake of the family, be controlled by others, bear the burden of humiliation." Zhang Ning blew the ink on the paper with satisfaction after writing, and said to the system, "Is the plot interesting?"
The system asked: "Do you remember the heroine?"
Zhang Ning: "Thank you for reminding me, if you don't tell me, I almost think I'm the protagonist."
System: "..." It has never seen a male supporting role so many.
After packing the written letter, Zhang Ning pushed open the door of the study and handed the letter to the eunuch who delivered the letter: "I'm sorry for your trouble, Eunuch."
Zhang Ning's hand felt around his waist, and after a moment he remembered how the clothes were put on. He took off the longevity lock hanging around his neck, handed it to the eunuch, and said: " Please also trouble your father-in-law to take care of my father."
The eunuch repeatedly refused: "Young master can't, this is what a slave should do."
Zhang Ning gave him a wry smile, and gave him the longevity lock, and said, "Eunuch, take it. I have nothing on me, and this is the only thing left."
A rumbling sound sounded from behind, and Zhang Ning's figure froze for a moment, and then he heard a man's low and smiling voice: "Have you finished writing the reply letter?"
Zhang Ning nodded slowly without making a sound.
"Go back and tell Duke Protector," Zhong Liyuan sat in a wheelchair and told the eunuch delivering the letter, "Young Master is fine with me, don't worry too much."
The eunuch took the letter and said "yes", but Zhang Ning seemed to have heard some threat from this sentence, and his face suddenly turned pale.
On the second day, Zhang Ning saw a few pieces of handwriting scattered on Zhong Liyuan's desk, and after a closer look, it was the reply letter he wrote yesterday that should have been sent to Duke Hu.The topmost piece of paper had the most words written on it. Zhang Ning wrote that he was under house arrest in the mansion of General Ningyuan, hoping that the Duke Huguo and his elder brother would come to rescue him or something.
Zhang Ning: "...It's over, what are you doing?"
System: "Let's go, the hero and heroine are waiting for you now, I'll see when you can go out."
Zhong Liyuan sat behind the desk with a blank expression on his face. He raised his hand to let Zhang Ning approach him: "A Shu, come here."
Zhang Ning walked around the desk slowly, walked in front of him, lowered his head and did not speak.
Zhong Liyuan took out a polished small and exquisite jade pendant from a box, threaded it on a red thread and put it on Zhang Ning, with a calm tone: "Your father loves you so much, you don't want him to worry about you that much, do you? "
At this moment, Zhang Ning saw a long life lock on the other corner of the desk, which was the one he gave away yesterday.
Zhang Ning gritted his teeth and said in a low voice, "You intercept my letter."
"Ashu," Zhong Liyuan smiled, "Have you forgotten, I promised you that I will settle down for your father well."
"Ninety percent of the villas are all mine, why do you say 'intercept'?"
After Zhong Liyuan put the jade pendant on him, he didn't let go of his hand, his fingers hooked the red thread and pulled it down slightly.Zhang Ning was forced to lower his head, looking at his slender fingers caressing the jade pendant.
The jade pendant was smooth and round, Zhang Ning looked familiar, but before he looked carefully, he heard Zhong Liyuan call him: "A Shu."
Zhong Liyuan stared at his fair neck, his eyes gradually darkened, and he said slowly: "Why don't you remember what I said?"
Zhang Ning's skin was very white, and there was a mark from the red rope around his neck.His eyelashes trembled uncontrollably, and were gently held down by his fingers.
Zhang Ning's eyes were covered, and he heard Zhong Liyuan say: "You should have a long memory."
Zhang Ning was hugged in his arms, his body blushed.He is the young master of the Duke Protector's Mansion. He was spoiled and raised since he was a child. If he is not careful, marks will be left on his fair and delicate skin.
His full earlobe was covered, and he trembled sensitively, unable to resist at all.
Zhong Liyuan heard him whimper again, and couldn't help but sigh in his ear: "Why are you so delicate?"
Zhang Ning still wore white socks on his legs and feet, and they hung down weakly, but they couldn't touch the ground no matter what.
Zhong Liyuan asked: "Do you still want to reply to your father?"
He stuffed a wolf hair into Zhang Ning's trembling palm, wrapped his hand again, and whispered to his ear: "Write whatever you want, I won't stop you this time."
How could Zhang Ning speak? His hands were shaking so badly that he couldn't pick up the brush. There was someone talking in a deep voice next to his ear, and his lips rubbed against the tip of his ear intentionally or unintentionally.
None of the characters on that piece of paper took shape in the end. I wrote a lot indiscriminately, but none of the strokes were clean and neat.
Zhong Liyuan had already dealt with the spies in his mansion, and he no longer concealed himself in front of Zhang Ning, walking like ordinary people.
"A Shu."
Now Zhang Ning couldn't hear Zhong Liyuan calling him that, so he flinched almost reflexively.
Zhong Liyuan said: "I won't move you."
He handed a bowl of lotus leaf porridge to Zhang Ning, and said, "The chef made it for you to cool off the heat, try it."
Zhang Ning took a sip from the spoon, nodded to Zhong Liyuan's gaze, and whispered, "It's delicious."
But after that, Zhang Ning kept stirring the spoon and didn't take a few sips at all.
Zhong Liyuan put down his chopsticks and frowned at him: "Why don't you drink?"
In the past few days, Zhang Ning has seen a lot of weight loss, and he is silent, looking listless.
Zhang Ning shook his head and said in a low voice, "I'm not hungry."
"I'm really hungry!" Zhang Ning shouted to the system: "I want to eat roast duck! I want to eat roast chicken!"
System: "Come on, hold on, maybe Zhong Liyuan will take you out to eat delicious food tomorrow."
But Zhong Liyuan didn't intend to let Zhang Ning go out at all. He summoned his servants and ordered: "Bring the cook from Chasing Phoenix Tower, and if you can make the young master finish a dish, you will be rewarded with a thousand taels."
Zhang Ning: "!!!"
After Zhong Liyuan finished speaking, he brought the lotus leaf porridge in front of Zhang Ning, picked up the spoon inside, and slowly finished the bowl of porridge.
"That porridge is very delicious," Zhang Ning said regretfully, "I really want to eat something——"
System: "Oh."
"General."
A guard stepped forward, hesitating whether to speak, Zhong Liyuan glanced at him, and said, "Say."
The guard looked at Zhang Ning who was sitting opposite, then lowered his head and said, "There is news from the Duke's Mansion."
"It is said that the eldest son's wife is having a difficult labor, and the situation is very bad."
Zhang Ning shook his hands and accidentally dropped the chopsticks on the table.
Zhong Liyuan said in a deep voice: "Take my name card and go to the palace to invite Imperial Physician Li to come over."
He looked at Zhang Ning again, sighed, and said, "Forget it, I'll go with you to Duke Huguo's Mansion."
The system that watched the mosaic all night said numbly: "You're awake."
Zhang Ning moved his arms, moved his lower legs with difficulty, and suddenly said: "Actually, if you don't fall in love..."
System: "Huh?"
Zhang Ning: "It's good just like this?"
System: "...Why do you use a questioning tone?"
