Безопасность - Глава 166
Tang Leyan stiffened, and Chu Gexing simply reached out and hugged her.
Tang Leyan stirred and asked in a low voice, "What are you doing?"
The bed frame screamed as it moved.
Who just said "move in a little more"?
Chu Gexing smiled.
"Holding you in my arms," Chu Gexing said. A hint of mischief in his voice.
Tang Leyan reached out and pushed him, but couldn't budge him at all.
"Don't move, go to sleep," he said, suppressing a laugh.
She heard nothing strange about his voice, and he really was just holding her without making any other moves, which calmed her down.
The eyes have adapted to the darkness indoors.
I also saw where the windows were.
There was probably moonlight; the pale moonlight shone through the window paper.
Tang Leyan could feel Chu Gexing's heartbeat, strong and powerful, pounding beside her ear.
After hesitating for a moment, she shrank her head towards it and felt the warmth.
Chu Gexing noticed this subtle movement, reached out and put his arm around her head, pressing her closer to his chest.

Waving goodbye from here Chapter 217 If close
The assassins sneaked in silently at dawn.
The firewood was gently crushed underfoot, making an extremely faint sound.
It's like in winter, when it's so cold, the withered flowers on the branches fall to the ground with a thud.
Chu Gexing had already heard that little sound.
He was still holding Tang Leyan in his arms, and he held the sword beside him in one hand.
The door split in two in an instant.
The gleaming blade shot straight towards the bed.
Chu Ge Xingren lay on the bed, and with a flick of his toe, he lifted the bed curtains and threw them into the air.
The bed curtains resembled a faded, large flower, engulfing the incoming projectiles within them.
Chu Gexing reacted extremely quickly, tapping Tang Leyan's pressure points with a backhand and whispering in her ear, "Lie still and don't move." He drew his sword and leaped to the ground, the sword flashing as it clashed, sending a flurry of hidden weapons flying backward.
A muffled groan of injury came from outside the door.
Chu Gexing stepped forward with his sword, intending to deal with the situation at hand, but suddenly sensed something was amiss.
His movements were always faster than his reactions. Before he could even step out the door, he suddenly arched his back and flew backward.
The feeling of palpitations only appeared when I turned back.
The man flew back swiftly, his body like a drawn bow, and the longsword like an arrow. Chu Gexing gripped the sword in a reverse grip, the precious blade swinging through the air, thrusting backward from his waist. Chu Gexing grasped the hilt with both hands. His hands were on his waist; before he even reached the bedside, the sword was already there.
A soft "splatter" was heard, and blood spurted out. Someone collapsed.
The assassin who had just sneaked up to Tang Leyan's side suddenly fell to the ground.
Tang Leyan lay on the bed, unable to dodge. Blood splattered on her body, the pungent smell of blood instantly reminded her of what happened at Diancui Pavilion that day, and a sharp pain shot through her chest, her blood surging.
It was like a nightmare replaying itself.
Chu Gexing saw the pain on her face at a glance, paused in his steps, and felt a pang of regret.
He had intended to go outside and deal with these people himself. Fearing she might act rashly, he had acupunctured her pressure points. However, it seemed these people weren't after him; their actions were merely a ploy to lure him outside.
Fortunately, he reacted quickly and was able to return in time.
He said he would protect her.
But, so close, so very close, we missed it again.
Without a second thought, he scooped her up from the bed in one arm: "Don't be afraid, Leyan, don't be afraid." His voice trembled with suppressed fear.
Tang Leyan slowly opened her eyes. A tear had already rolled down her cheek.
"It's alright." He looked at her with trepidation. Suddenly, he reached out, untied his outer robe, and took it off, holding it over her head. He whispered, "Sleep, and when you wake up, you'll be in Shundu. Think about these things, think..." He lowered his head and pressed his lips to her forehead.
He swallowed the name of someone that flashed through his mind, then turned his head and looked at the already cooled corpse on the ground. His eyes changed instantly.
----Unforgivable.
There were still figures flickering outside the door, and the sound of hidden weapons whistling through the air rose again.
Chu Gexing flicked his arm, and the sword flew out of his hand. He held Tang Leyan tightly with both hands and suddenly stomped his foot.
A powerful burst of energy erupted from his body, and in an instant, all the tables, chairs, and benches in the room, including the creaking bed, flew out in all directions.
Chu Gexing's eyes widened slightly, exuding murderous intent. The assassins waiting outside saw several streaks of white light fly out of the thatched hut. Some drew their swords to block, but the swords quickly shattered into pieces. The white light struck the human body, and instantly, the bones of the body made a miserable cracking sound.
When the pursuers from Fengcheng arrived, all the dozen or so people who had surrounded the house were dead.
"What kind of evil skill is this, that it can kill so many people in an instant?"
"If I'm not mistaken, this skill has been lost for a long time."
"Um?"
"Coincidentally, someone recently asked me to find someone who can use this kind of skill, and unexpectedly, it turned out to be him."
"You mean..."
"He couldn't hold back in the end, but was it worth it? Even the most meticulous plans can have flaws." "My lord..."
"Send a carrier pigeon immediately to Tianmiao Peak."
"yes."
Along the way, Chu Gexing dared not be careless again.
He protected Tang Leyan completely and took meticulous care of her. As a result, her health gradually improved. He didn't know if it was because of his careful care or because they were getting closer to Shundu every day, and people are in high spirits when they have good things to do.
In his spare time, Chu Ge would quietly gaze at her.
That kind of look often made her tremble with fear.
She couldn't figure out what was wrong with Chu Gexing, why he was suddenly being so nice to her.
That day, she was sleeping in bed.
When he reached the bedside, she had already woken up, but was still pretending to be fast asleep.
I wanted to see what he was up to.
If something truly unforgivable were to happen...
She even jokingly hoped that if he did that, she could legitimately "despise" him.
Chu Gexing stood there blankly for a moment.
Then he gently squatted down.
He was originally tall, but suddenly he squatted down in front of the bed like a puppy, which surprised her.
She secretly opened her eyes, then looked through her eyelashes.
But she saw him staring blankly at her, seemingly lost in thought.
Fortunately, he was so engrossed in his thoughts that he didn't notice her subtle actions. This man is truly boring.
She was impatient. She was about to wake up.
Chu Gexing made a move.
Tang Leyan held back for a moment, then saw him reach into his robes again and take something out, turning it over and over in his hands.
She couldn't see what it was.
With great interest and care, he finally placed the item beside her pillow on the bed.
Then I continued watching.
She couldn't stand this person's strange behavior any longer, so she pretended to have just woken up. She opened her eyes.
The man nimbly grabbed the thing back, then jumped up and turned around.
Tang Leyan was furious. She snorted twice and said, "Chu Gexing, what were you doing just now?"
He didn't answer, his shoulders trembling slightly.
"Hey, hey," she called twice, "Why aren't you saying anything?"
He strode out.
"How strange," she muttered to herself. She got out of bed and started to get off.
A gust of wind blew beside him, and he returned: "What are you doing?" he asked, frowning.
She knew this would happen, and burst into laughter.
He knew she did it on purpose, but he wasn't angry. He just turned his head away.
She looked him up and down for a while, and finally grabbed his hand.
His hand trembled, and he shook her hand away.
She tried to grab him again. He shook her off again.
After doing this several times, she said, "I'll be exhausted." Her voice was low and tinged with sorrow.
He stared at her silently for a while before giving up his resistance.
Tang Leyan was overjoyed, grabbed his hand, and slowly pried his fingers apart.
Suddenly she froze.
Lying quietly in his palm was... something...
That piece of jade.
