"Don't worry, I'm fine." Li Qiao simply put his arm around his shoulders again and held him in his arms.
The shower room is steaming hot, and even if you have just taken a shower, you will still have sweat beads on your body if you stay in it.
But Tao Zhu didn't push him away. Tao Zhu just looked up at him with a slightly wet face, subconsciously holding his breath: "What's next?"
"The next step is for me to show off my power."
Li Qiao chuckled, trying to make the atmosphere more relaxed, but obviously, it was impossible for Tao Zhu to relax when his safety was involved.
Although what he said was simple enough, Tao Zhu, whose nerves were tense, was still frightened and a little breathless.
Tao Zhu grabbed Li Qiao's arm with both hands, his face turned pale. If Li Qiao hadn't been brave and quick to react in that scene, he wouldn't have been able to wait tonight...
Unable to control it, tears suddenly burst out of his eyes. Even if he was held by Li Qiao, his body could not help but tremble.
"Li, Li Qiao...Li Qiao..." He choked and shouted Li Qiao's name, his eyesight blurred by tears, and he couldn't see Li Qiao's face clearly. He could only hug Li Qiao tightly, his whole body It all hangs on Li Qiao.
Can't.
Nothing can happen to Li Qiao.
Without Li Qiao, he would die.
He had lost all the energy he had when he and Li Qiao were newly engaged. At that time, what he was thinking about was that if Li Qiao failed him, he would also sell snacks to compete with Li Qiao for business.
But now, after six years of marriage, his fate has already become one with Li Qiao's.
Now that he heard about tonight's situation, his head was instantly confused, and his fearful mind went blank. He really didn't dare to think about what he would do if something happened to Li Qiao.
Will die.
He is really going to die.
"It's okay, I'm okay, Brother Zhu, don't worry, I'll be fine in front of you."
Li Qiao felt uncomfortable listening to Tao Zhu's hoarse voice. He held Tao Zhu and sat down on the small stool in the shower room.
"Don't worry about me, I'm awesome."
But Tao Zhu didn't speak, as if he hadn't heard what he said. He just buried his face in his neck and cried softly. His body was still shaking from crying, and the hot tears were smeared on his shoulders, making him want to Now rush over and peel off Lu Wenrong and the fifth prince.
In his impression, Tao Zhu had always been strong, not like a little brother, but more like a man.
Therefore, the moment before Tao Zhu cried out, he was still in a relaxed state of mind.
Although there were a few thrills tonight, it was even less than a thrill. His Majesty may not be reliable in his work, but the Seventh Prince has always been reliable!
Since the Seventh Prince is involved in tonight's plan, the main hall must be safe. Therefore, he feels that tonight is a good harvest night and he should be happy.
But in reality, how could Tao Zhu care about his harvest...
Hearing Tao Zhu call his name one after another, he responded one after another. At the same time, he gently shook the person in his arms, as if coaxing two cubs: "Don't be afraid, it's over. Yes, and the Holy One has a back-up plan."
"Also, I promise to hide in a safe place immediately when I see danger in the future. I will never stand in the middle of the hall like I am today."
Tao Zhu was crying so hard that she couldn't understand his long words. She just hugged him tightly in fear and couldn't stop her tears.
"..."
An unprecedented impulse surged into Li Qiao's head, and he wanted to tell Tao Zhu about his supernatural powers.
He really, really wanted to.
If Tao Zhu knew how powerful he was, then even if he was in danger again, Tao Zhu would not be so afraid.
However, will he scare Tao Zhu like this?
Tao Zhu always believed that he was his original self. If he knew that the person he slept with for six years was actually a stranger from another world, it would probably be more of a shock than a surprise for Tao Zhu...
Forget it, now is not a good time to confess. Let's wait until Tao Zhu's mood stabilizes.
With this in mind, he simply lowered his head and kissed Tao Zhu's cheek.
At this moment, a familiar kiss should be able to soothe Tao Zhu's frightened heart.
The truth was just as he thought. As his kisses fell on Tao Zhu's cheeks, the tip of her nose, and her lips, slowly, Tao Zhu's crying stopped.
"I'm sorry for making you cry like this. I promise you that no matter what happens in the future, I will try my best to keep myself safe."
"No matter how late it is, I will come back and I won't keep you waiting."
Li Qiao held his cheek with her big hands, remembering the scene when he hurriedly walked out of the side yard when he came back just now, his eyes became wet.
"Yes." Tao Zhu pursed his lips and nodded slightly: "No matter how late it is, I will wait for you."
"Okay." Li Qiao listened to his hoarse voice with a strong nasal tone and looked at his red and wet eyes. His heart seemed to be grabbed by someone, and he felt extremely uncomfortable.
Involuntarily, Li Qiao lowered her head to kiss him.
This time, it was no longer a touch like a dragonfly.
But I wish I could eat the person in my arms so enthusiastically.
Tao Zhu was extremely tired at the moment, but he tried his best to respond to Li Qiao's kiss. Only this kind of crazy kiss could reassure him and make him feel that Li Qiao was indeed right in front of him.
Both of them were eager to feel each other's presence. Naturally, the kiss went off the rails. After everything was over, Tao Zhu only had time to hug Li Qiao's neck tightly, and then fell asleep directly.
Li Qiao kissed his lips distressedly, then washed him again, put on his clothes, and then carried him out of the shower room.
Back in the bedroom, Li Xia had fallen asleep beside the kang, and the two little cubs were also fast asleep.
Wake up Li Xia and ask Li Xia to go back to find Zhao Shen. He puts Tao Zhu on the kang.
There was herbal tea to relieve the heat in the teapot on the table. He first poured a cup and drank it himself, then poured another cup and brought it to the kang.
"Brother Zhu, have a drink of water." He lay next to Tao Zhu's ear and shouted softly.
Tao Zhu cried a lot just now and sweated a lot in the shower room, so he needed to rehydrate.
After he shouted four or five times in a row, Tao Zhu finally snorted, which was regarded as a response. However, at this moment, Tao Zhu was tired and sleepy, and could not open his eyes. After snorting, his consciousness returned. Blurred.
Seeing this, Li Qiao could only hold him and sit on the kang. While waking him up, he put the tea bowl to his mouth.
After sweating from exhaustion, Li Qiao finally finished the bowl of herbal tea.
Seeing Tao Zhu fall asleep again instantly, he breathed out softly.
He might as well take Tao Zhu out for a walk these two days, to relax, see the beautiful scenery, and let the fear go away. If he stayed at home, Tao Zhu would definitely think about all sorts of things.
Li Qiao had a good plan, but when he woke up the next day, he realized that the entire city was under martial law. The city gates were closed, and people outside the city could not come in, and people inside the city could not get out.
Moreover, everyone stayed at home, and only the Imperial Guards were allowed on the streets, not ordinary people.
It was peaceful when he came back last night, but after just a short sleep, the atmosphere in Shengjing City changed.
Soon, Tao Zhu also woke up. He told Tao Zhu his plan with a look of regret, but Tao Zhu immediately shook his head after hearing this: "Even if I can leave the house, I won't go. It's so dangerous outside, maybe There are remnants of the Fifth Prince’s lineage, so it’s safer to stay at home.”
Li Qiao: "..."
Brother Zhu is right.
Especially since he was the number one enemy of the fifth prince and the Lu family, and had filled up the hatred of the two families, it was better for him to stay at home and guard them.
"Then let's play cards?" Li Qiao asked again.
"If you don't hit me, your eyes will hurt."
Tao Zhu still shook his head.
He cried so hard last night that his eyes were so swollen that he couldn't even open them.
"After breakfast, apply some ice cubes." Li Qiao said immediately.
Tao Zhu hummed, and he lay lazily in Li Qiao's arms, feeling soft all over. There were several ice basins in the bedroom, and the indoor temperature was quite comfortable.
"Bring me breakfast. I'll eat it in the house. I want to go back to sleep after eating."
he said.
"Okay." Li Qiao responded naturally.
"You also want to lie down with me." Tao Zhu said, groping for a few seconds with his eyes closed, and after finding his big hand, she immediately interlocked with his fingers.
Li Qiao looked at the clasped hands, and her heartache welled up again.
This time I really scared Brother Zhu.
He went to the kitchen to bring breakfast, and he ate the meal with Tao Zhu, which was neither breakfast nor lunch, and then played with the two cubs for a while before going back to sleep.
Tao Zhu was really sleepy and tired. He squeezed his body completely into Li Qiao's arms, buried his cheek in Li Qiao's heart, and then closed his eyes with satisfaction.
When he woke up again, he had missed lunch.
But the fatigue on his body disappeared, and his eyes were no longer swollen.
After having lunch with Li Qiao, he brought the two cubs over. Although he had not been able to play with the two cubs all morning, he was thinking hard.
The two cubs also missed their father very much. They took the toys Li Qiao made for them and played happily with Tao Zhu. The smiles on their little faces never stopped.
Of course, there is also Li Qiao, the father.
The two little round dumplings were just right chubby, hugging them softly, and kept smiling at themselves. The lovely Li Qiao hugged them one by one and kissed them again and again.
Human cubs are so adorable and truly the light of humanity.
The family of four played for a while, and then it was time for the little ones to take a nap. They put the two little ones to sleep, but Tao Zhu still didn't want to leave the room.
Seeing this, Li Qiao asked the kitchen to bring a fruit plate, snacks, and tea. Brother Zhu didn't want to leave the room, so he stayed in the room with Brother Zhu.
Tao Zhu took a bamboo stick and first pierced a grape. It was the season to eat grapes. These grapes were also peeled and were big and sweet.
When the sweetness of the grapes exploded in his mouth, he looked at Li Qiao and asked what happened after Li Qiao captured the fifth prince.
After he was scared by Li Qiao last night, Li Qiao didn't say anything about what happened next.
What happened next?
Li Qiao was also eating fruit, but he was eating watermelon. Among fruits, watermelon was his favorite.
The part that worried Tao Zhu the most had already been told, and he talked about the rest easily.
After hearing what he said, Tao Zhu's eyes widened and he exclaimed: "Is the Seventh Prince that powerful?"
"It's amazing. He used two swords, and he didn't lose in a short period of time against the traitor Li Hao."
Li Qiao was also amazed.
