“Everyone, don’t make any noise.”
Su Qing turned around and gestured for Li Daniu and the soldiers to keep quiet. Everyone understood and followed behind her silently.
The two Northern Barbarian soldiers at the front had been guarding against Zhong Yong’s sneak attack. One guarded Jiang Yuyan at the front, while the other guarded Zhong Yong at the back. The one guarding Jiang Yuyan kept his scimitar at her neck. If Zhong Yong dared to act rashly, he would attack.
Zhong Yong feared Jiang Yuyan and didn’t dare to get too close. When he saw the blood on Jiang Yuyan’s neck, he felt like a knife had been twisted in his heart. He glared at the two Northern Barbarians and shouted,
“Bandage her wound.”
The two Northern Barbarians only asked him to follow them obediently. ‘Wasn’t it just bandaging her wounds? Then let’s wrap it up?’ But there was no special cotton cloth for bandaging. The two of them looked at Zhong Yong together.
“I can’t do it without a cloth bag.”
Zhong Yong took a deep breath to suppress the anger that was about to explode in his heart. He lifted his cotton robe and tore a cotton cloth from his underwear. Zhong Yong wanted to throw it over, but he changed his mind. He took the cotton cloth and said to the two Northern Barbarian soldiers,
“I’ll bring it over.”
“No, don’t move here. We’ll come and get it!”
The Northern Barbarian soldier wasn’t stupid. He placed his knife on Jiang Yuyan’s neck and forced Zhong Yong to stand still. Then, he asked the other Northern Barbarian soldier to go over and take the cotton cloth.
Zhong Yong moved forward a little, preparing to rush over to save Jiang Yuyan while they were bandaging her wounds.
However, these two people were very cunning. They took the knife from Jiang Yuyan’s neck and immediately placed it on her heart. This was even more dangerous than her neck. If they stabbed her, she would die. Zhong Yongxin was furious, but there was nothing he could do.
Jiang Yuyan looked at Zhong Yong with tears in her eyes. She had already guessed what these two northern barbarian soldiers wanted to do. She would rather die than let Zhong Yong put himself in danger.
This trip to the Northern Barbarians would only lead to death, so she would say what was on her mind before she died. Even if she died, she would not have any regrets.
When Jiang Yuyan thought of this, the lingering look in her eyes turned into determination. She wanted to wipe away her tears so that Zhong Yong wouldn’t see her cry, but the moment she moved, two Northern Barbarian soldiers nervously pierced her clothes with their knives. Zhong Yong was scared out of his wits and hurriedly shouted,
“Don’t touch her.”
Jiang Yuyan had no choice but to put down her hand. She blinked her eyes hard to squeeze out her tears to see Zhong Yong’s face clearly, but why was she so disappointed? The more she wanted to see his face, the more tears flowed down her face.
Seeing Jiang Yuyan cry, Zhong Yong didn’t know where to put his hands and feet. He stomped his feet anxiously,
“Aiya, don’t cry. You’re crying… My heart hurts.”
Zhong Yong told the truth in a hurry. Jiang Yuyan broke into a smile when she heard Zhong Yong’s words. Her tears fell along with her laughter. She was going to die anyway, so she asked him boldly,
“Is what you said true? Are you feeling sorry for me?”
“Yes.”
Zhong Yong’s eyes widened when he saw the Northern Barbarian soldier roughly bandaging Jiang Yuyan’s wounds. He shouted at him,
“Be gentle. If you hurt her, I’ll smash your head.”
His aura was too fierce, and the Northern Barbarian soldier was so scared that his entire body trembled. He quickly said,
“Yes, I’ll be gentle.”
That fellow feared that the King of Hell would come over and pull his head off after he finished speaking, so his movements were very gentle.
Jiang Yuyan’s love for Zhong Yong grew stronger when she saw him fiercely protecting her. She looked at Zhong Yong and smiled with tears in her eyes. The snow around her became a foil to her, and her smile was as beautiful as a blooming camellia.
Zhong Yong was not happy at all when he saw Jiang Yuyan smiling. He wanted to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes. Looking at her tearful smile, his eyes were filled with heartache as he blurted out,
“Don’t be afraid. I’ll accompany you.”
Hearing Zhong Yong’s words, Jiang Yuyan shook her head.
“Big Brother Zhong, don’t worry about me. They used me as bait to lure you to the Northern Barbarians. You won’t be able to survive there even if you are a God. Go back and find Big Brother Xiao and Sister Su Qing to lead troops to wipe out the Northern Barbarians and avenge me.”
“Shut up.”
Hearing Jiang Yuyan’s words, the Northern Barbarian soldier bandaging her wound angrily pushed her away and gave a stern order.
“Why should I shut up? Who do you think you are? Do you dare to kill me? If you want to kill me, just do it. I’m not afraid of you.”
Jiang Yuyan was like a bit of pepper, scolding the Northern Barbarian soldier. Not only was she not afraid of him, but she taunted him to kill her.
This was also the decision Jiang Yuyan made to protect Zhong Yong. She had angered these two Northern Barbarian soldiers. If they killed her, Zhong Yong could kill them immediately. Then, he wouldn’t have to follow her to the Northern Barbarians to die.
Facing Jiang Yuyan’s goading, the two Northern Barbarian soldiers didn’t dare to accept it. This lady was now their amulet. They could only live if she were alive. If she died, neither of them could live.
“Alright, alright, stop shouting.”
Anyway, just say it. As long as we don’t let you go, that blockhead won’t dare to kill us and will have to follow us to the Northern Barbarians.’
Zhong Yong saw that Jiang Yuyan wasn’t afraid in the face of danger and praised her even more. If she were to cry, Zhong Yong would lose his composure. Seeing her so calm, Zhong Yong could rest assured and think of a way to save her.
Because her goading didn’t work, Jiang Yuyan became even more anxious. She suppressed her love and didn’t confess to him to make Zhong Yong leave. Instead, she shouted angrily at him,
“Go, I’m vexed to see you.”
Zhong Yong looked at her in a daze, his expression hurt. ‘Why was she bothering him? Was it because he didn’t think of a way to save her?’
“I hate you very much. Leave quickly. You don’t have to worry about my matters.”
Seeing Zhong Yong’s hurt expression, Jiang Yuyan felt like a knife was cutting her heart. She held back her tears and continued to scold him with a choked voice,
“Who are you to me? I don’t need you to care, okay? Go, don’t delay my fun.”
Zhong Yong saw the tears in Jiang Yuyan’s eyes and instantly understood that she was intentionally provoking him. She wanted to protect him!
After understanding Jiang Yuyan’s feelings, Zhong Yong’s heart ached even more for her. When he opened his mouth, he remembered that he had nothing to do with Jiang Yuyan. He hesitated for a moment before saying,
“I… I’m your big brother. It’s my responsibility to protect you.”
“Big brother.,.1 have a big brother, and you…I’m a person that no one cares about, so there’s no need for Big Brother Zhong to worry about me.”
Who knew that Jiang Yuyan would be even sadder after hearing Zhong Yong’s words, her tears flowing out rapidly? She laughed at herself. After so long, she had been good to him, but he disregarded it and treated her as his sister. God knew that she didn’t want to be his sister!
“Aiya, how can you say that!”
Zhong Yong became even more anxious when he saw her crying so sadly. He spun in circles on the spot, his two large hands rubbing back and forth helplessly. ‘Unsurprisingly, a woman’s heart was as deep as the sea. Why did she turn hostile so easily?’
Jiang Yuyan was in despair, and she sobbed,
“Big Brother Zhong.Jt had been so long…I… Don’t you know my feelings for you? Or do you know how to pretend to be confused? Forget it; we’re about to be separated by heaven and earth. It doesn’t matter if you like me or not. I wish you…
I wish you…Marry a virtuous and beautiful sister-in-law..White hair…01d!”
