184 “Drunken Bones (Guyan 1v1 High H)” Pretend

The lamps in the tent burst into flames. Huo Suiji naturally drew his sword and picked the heart of the candle with the tip of the sword. The firelight cast a deep shadow between his brows.Bi Luo was half leaning on the bed, staring at his slightly busy figure with a pair of almond-shaped eyes, and the bitter taste of the concoction slowly spread on the tip of her tongue.

This is already the third tonic she has taken today.

Now…she will usher in her fourth server today.

After Huo Sui cooled the medicine on the desk, he held it directly in front of Bi Luo.Holding a bowl in one hand and a spoon in the other, he took a spoonful and brought it to her lips, gesturing for her to open her mouth.

“General, you don’t have to treat your slaves like this.” Bi Luo said helplessly.From that day on, Huo Suijiyu stayed by her side every day. Except for resting at night and a short period of changing clothes and washing, he never left her at all other times.He did everything himself, including drinking medicine and delivering meals. Even…even when she wanted to go to the latrine, he had to personally accompany her.

“General, I will keep this kindness in mind.” She lowered her slightly trembling eyelashes and unconsciously twirled the quilt under her body with her fingertips, trying to ease her current uneasy mood.”But right now, my slave’s injuries are no longer a problem, so I can take care of myself. I really don’t dare bother the general anymore.”

She unnaturally avoided his blazing gaze, bit her lip, and finally spoke softly: “A general is the commander of an army, and there is no need to condescend to work for a slave.”

Huo Sui chuckled softly, but he never gave in the gesture of holding the medicine cup in his hand, as if he would keep holding it like this if she didn’t drink.”Then why do you think I would do this for you?”

Bi Luo was shocked when she heard this, and her knuckles turned slightly white as she clenched the quilt tightly.She didn’t dare to raise her eyes to look at him with her lowered eyes, fearing that his words would give rise to unwanted thoughts that she shouldn’t have, and she subconsciously wanted to escape.”General, you are benevolent and righteous. I blocked an arrow for you that day. You feel guilty, so…”

“So you think that I treat you like this just to repay your kindness?” Huo Sui suddenly raised his lips, but the smile did not reach his eyes, but there was a bit of sarcasm in his eyes.He seemed to be tired after all, so he placed the medicine cup in his hand heavily on the desk, and his tone became lower and lower.”If I, Huo Sui, want to repay your kindness, I can give you money as a gift, or I can even ask the emperor to grant you status. Even if you are promoted to the daughter of a noble family, it will not be difficult.”

What Huo Sui can be sure of is that he definitely did not regard the kindness as the affection between a man and a woman at that moment because she saved him.His feelings for Bi Luo had already started to change when they visited the Lantern Festival together.At that time, he was tossing and turning, his mind and heart filled with thoughts of the woman who called him by a very nice name. He just thought he had never seen another woman before and was attracted to her for a moment.

But every time he saw her, his eyes would be unconsciously attracted to her. Every time he saw her smile, he would feel happy, and he would even do stupid things to make her smile, and spend the entire night as a lantern party.Every subtle movement and look in her eyes seemed to gently pluck the strings in his heart, playing the war music of the army, making him excited.

He thought he was crazy. Even after returning to the palace that time, he, who had never gone to the place of fireworks in Laoshizi, went with his brothers in the palace for the first time.He thought he was just old and missed women, but when those women with heavy makeup wanted to approach him, what flashed in his mind was her plain face without any makeup.At that moment, he only felt that the woman’s smile was disgusting, far less attractive than Bi Luo’s plain face, and even her smile was a flattering smile, not as natural as hers at all.

He didn’t sit for long before leaving first. As he walked on the deserted street and looked at the vendors on both sides, he could only think of one thing.

——Next time, let’s make a lantern for her and give her a guess.

His cool fingertips cupped her chin, forcing her to raise her head and look directly into his bottomless eyes.Huo Sui’s voice was low, but every word struck her heart like a hammer, “I chose the most roundabout way to stay by your side, taking care of you in every detail, and making your world full of my presence.” His tone was a little softer, but it made people unable to escape, “Bi Luo, do you really not understand what I mean?”

There was a sudden “boom” in Bi Luo’s mind, as if something had hit her hard, and she was stunned.Her fine eyelashes trembled, and a flash of panic flashed in her eyes. She subconsciously wanted to look away, but her chin was tightly shackled by the man, unable to move.”I…”

His eyes were too real and his words were too serious.

She didn’t dare to answer it, let alone believe it.

How could a small grass growing in the cracks and struggling to survive expect the bright sun to stop just for her?

“I don’t understand, please general…don’t say such things again.” Bi Luo’s voice was so low that it was almost inaudible, like it would disperse when the wind blew, but it was filled with unconcealable wavering.

Huo Sui was startled at first when he heard this, and then he smiled lowly. There was a bit of self-mockery in the smile, and the curve of the corners of his lips was also a bit bitter.He slowly leaned forward and got closer to her, but the light in his eyes dimmed little by little, and the hot and panic breaths were blending together.”If you don’t understand, then I’ll make it more obvious.”

His eyes were dark, his hot breath almost touched her lips, and all the emotions that had been suppressed for a long time were finally out of control at this moment.Huo Sui lowered his head and kissed her, not allowing her any chance to escape. As if he was risking everything, he poured all the affection she pretended not to know into this kiss.

His hand clasped the back of her neck tightly, with a sense of oppression that was almost engulfing her.Huo Sui’s lips were extremely hot. At first, he just touched them lightly, as if to test, but also as if he was afraid of scaring her, so he had to carefully observe her reaction.He thought he could maintain absolute sanity, but when he met her soft and slightly bitter lips, this restraint was torn apart.

Huo Sui’s movements became deeper and deeper, his lips and teeth entangled with each other, with an irresistible plunder, as if he wanted to rub the person in front of him into his bones and blood.The other hand fell on her waist, holding it firmly, and with a little force he brought her into his arms, almost wanting to embed her into his chest.

Bi Luo trembled slightly, and an almost inaudible gasp escaped from her lips, seeming to hesitate and respond silently.

Huo Sui let her go slightly, but his voice was already hoarse.”Now, do you understand what I mean?” He gently caressed her cheeks as red as ripe fruits with his fingertips, and suddenly raised his lips, “My heart is happy for you, and my heart is happy with the blue sky.” His eyes fell on the lips she was biting, and he couldn’t help but get a little closer, “It’s just that my heart is happy with the blue sky, nothing else.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he sealed her moist lips again, his movements more wanton and bold than before, but his hands were still carefully protecting the wound on her shoulder blade.The tip of his tongue pried open her clenched teeth, slowly sucked in her breath, and kissed her deeply into her throat.

His lips and tongue entangled hers lingeringly, and every touch was like fire, burning her to confusion.Bi Luo was like that hard-to-build ice wall at this moment, but now the man in front of her could easily burn that wall clean with a burst of fire. It was an intimacy that she didn’t even dare to hope for, and it was the afterglow that she thought would not stay in her hands.

Now, that afterglow actually stayed in her hands.

Bi Luo’s fingertips kept trembling, and she clutched the robe on his chest nervously and helplessly.He thought she was trying to escape, so he held her a little tighter, and the aura that belonged to Huo Sui swept her over violently and domineeringly.Her mind went blank, and there seemed to be no sound around her. Even the wind seemed to have stopped at this moment, and even her breathing was out of control. All that remained was the teasing warmth between his lips and teeth, and the almost uncontrollable throbbing in her heart.

The lips parted, and the woman in front of her already had eyes like autumn water, and her cheeks were drunkenly red, just like the red fruits in full bloom in the mountains and forests.Both of them were breathing messily, and the robe in front of him was also wrinkled, but he didn’t care at all, his eyes were fixed on Bi Luo who lowered her head and didn’t dare to look at him.”What about you? Do you like me?”

“General Huo…” She slowly raised her hand and gently pushed away his hand covering her waist. Her eyes, filled with confusion and panic, were stubbornly lowered, not daring to look at him for a moment.”This slave has a low status and is not worthy of you… let alone your compassion.”

As soon as the words came out, her knuckles were already tense, and her fingertips turned white from the exertion.How could she not be happy with that afterglow, but no matter how much she liked or admired him, she couldn’t erase the huge difference between her and him. If a man as high as him was really with a lowly slave like her, that dazzling afterglow would be criticized by everyone. She couldn’t bear and didn’t want Huo Sui to be burdened with any stain that shouldn’t belong to him because of her.

Huo Sui looked at her quietly and said nothing for a long time.

After a while, he finally chuckled, but there was no hint of lightness.The laughter was low, but it was clearly full of self-deprecation.”Okay.” He slowly backed away, his voice was very soft, but when it fell into his ears, it was as if it weighed a thousand pounds, “I don’t want to force others to do anything.”

Huo Sui picked up his sword and started to walk out of the camp. He caught a glimpse of the bowl of tonic that he had not yet drank. He opened his mouth but did not turn around, “Remember to drink the medicine. There is a sweet cake on the table to relieve the bitterness.”

Hearing this, Bi Luo subconsciously stopped Huo Sui.”General Huo!” She blurted out, but she knew in her heart that this call no longer had any reason to keep him.

Hearing her calling him to stop, Huo Sui subconsciously stopped and turned slightly to the side, but saw that the man on the bed didn’t say anything for a while, and was about to leave.But as soon as his legs moved forward, he couldn’t help but said in a deep voice: “I want you to come to me yourself.”
