"But you..." Ling'er met Qi Yang's eyes and forgot what she wanted to say for a moment. She only felt her heart suddenly beating wildly.
Qi Yang's eyes were beautiful, but what made Ling'er's heart move at this moment was the tenderness in his eyes.
It was not that Ling'er had never looked at Qi Yang before, but this was the first time she had seen such undisguised tenderness in Qi Yang's eyes.
Ling'er knew that Brother Yang had always been gentle to her, but that gentleness was restrained and reserved. But at this time, the tenderness in his eyes was frank and exposed. How could she not stop her heartbeat?
"I'm just on my way, what are you worried about?" Qi Yang asked with a smile.
"I... uh..." Ling'er blushed and blinked, unable to answer for the moment.
Qi Yang looked at Ling'er's silly look and couldn't help but chuckle.
Ling'er shyly let go of her hand and turned sideways. Brother Yang, who was usually as dumb as a block, was actually laughing at him?
"We'll be on the road for the next few days, so girl, it's better to go back and rest early!" Qi Yang said seriously.
"No, I have to help you change your dressing!" Ling'er hurriedly objected.
"Didn't you just change it not long ago?" Qi Yang frowned.
"Then we'll change the dressing when it's almost dawn." Ling'er had no intention of leaving tonight.
Qi Yang saw Ling'er's intention and whispered: "Isn't this... bad?" Spending the night together in the same room with a man and a woman alone would harm Ling'er's reputation as a boudoir. Although it had happened a few times before, I couldn't help myself at those times.
Ling'er said sadly: "Otherwise, who will treat the injury on your back when you get on the road?"
"The wound on the back is shallow and should be healed tomorrow." Qi Yang comforted Ling'er.
"Where's the injury on the lower back?" Ling'er asked politely.
"I can handle it myself." Qi Yang also touched the wound on his waist to show that he could get it.
"So... you just made up your mind to drive me away, right?" Ling'er asked aggrievedly, her eyes slightly red.
"I'm doing this for the girl's own good." Qi Yang explained softly.
"Then I'll just leave." Ling'er turned around and left with tears in her eyes.
Qi Yang reached out and took Ling'er's arm without thinking. He wanted Ling'er to go back and rest, but he must not let Ling'er leave in tears and sadness!
"What else are you trying to do with me?" Ling'er asked sadly.
"I understand what the girl is thinking, but it's not like we have to leave tomorrow, and it's not like we won't see each other again in the future." Qi Yang explained.
"Then will I see you again along the way?" Ling'er looked back at Qi Yang with hope.
"This..." Qi Yang didn't know how to answer for a moment.
Ling'er's pretty little face immediately fell.
Qi Yang quickly said: "If the girl wants to see me..."
When Ling'er heard this, he became energetic again.
"If the girl is in danger, I will not stand by and watch." Qi Yang changed his words and said that he could only guarantee this.
"What if we are not in danger?" Ling'er turned around and took Qi Yang's arm and asked.
Qi Yang frowned in embarrassment.
"What if I just want to see you?" Ling'er asked.
"I don't want to reveal my whereabouts to Master Ji." Qi Yang had no choice but to tell him the difficulty.
Ling'er heard Qi Yang's concerns and said: "Then just think of it as a chance encounter, and you have to go to Hengshan..."
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Ling'er really understood that Brother Yang not only wanted to conceal the identity of the assassin in black, but he was also unwilling to go with Uncle Ji.
Seeing Qi Yang frowning, Ling'er quickly changed her words: "Then don't let Uncle Ji know. I... just want to see you."
