The General's Darling Is Delicate-Chapter 434 - 296: Can You Hold My Hand?

Perhaps men also have a sixth sense.

During the day, the Little Princess and the Grandmaster were always mysterious, and Yelyu Lie saw the Little Princess constantly holding the fan of the Great Xia Regent King.

He felt an inexplicable sense of foreboding.

He didn’t know how to suppress the unease in his heart and could only express his protest through this method.

He strode forward.

On the bed, the Little Princess was frightened and quickly wrapped herself in the quilt, retreating to the innermost corner, "General Yelyu! You said you’d never force me to do anything!"

The man marched forward with a bold and arrogant stride, his face still full of an agitated expression.

It made people inexplicably afraid.

Yun Chunnuan retreated to the point where there was no further retreat, and Yelyu Lie reached the bed, kneeling on one leg, leaning forward.

The moment his large hand reached out, Yun Chunnuan was truly scared.

But the next second, she felt the quilt behind her being pulled away.

When she opened her eyes, she saw him tossing and turning one quilt after another on the bed, then laying them on the ground.

Seeing the Little Princess’s eyes full of astonishment, he sneered, "Look at how frightened you are! If I wanted to touch you, I would have done it long ago. I have no interest in forcing women. Besides... you belong to me anyway."

He sat down on the laid-out bedding on the ground, looking at the Little Princess with a hint of envy and an undisguised sadness, "I am very happy. Very happy for the other self in that world.

Nuannuan, when you return, be sure to tell him to love his wife well. If one day he betrays you, I’ll cross into that other world and snatch you to be my wife!"

His tone was domineering, yet his amber pupils slowly turned red.

While the Little Princess on the bed was in a daze, Yelyu Lie quickly lay down, turning his back to the direction of the bed, covering himself with the quilt, "Sleep, sleep. You are a busy person with important things to do. If I delay you, the Grandmaster will kill me.

So, stop bothering me and hurry to sleep."

One moment touched by the Barbarian General’s words, the next Yun Chunnuan directly picked up a pillow and threw it over, "You are the annoying one! Sneaking around here like a bandit, disturbing my rest, and then saying I’m the nuisance!"

Her playful voice echoed, and Yelyu Lie’s head was hit perfectly by a buckwheat pillow.

But he wasn’t annoyed at all; instead, he curled his lips and smiled contentedly.

The moments that followed were filled entirely with her gentle voice in his mind.

No scent of blood lingered, only the faint fragrance from her body was recalled.

He thought, perhaps the happiest night of his life was this night.

Yelyu Lie didn’t turn around, reaching out to place the pillow back, covering up with the quilt, and peacefully closing his eyes.

Yun Chunnuan sat on the bed, hesitant to leave or stay.

Staying felt like betraying her husband, as they were alone together.

But dismissing him seemed unfair since he’d been quite well-behaved, naturally turning away, showing no signs of any mischievous intentions.

After some hesitation, Yun Chunnuan finally lay down.

Let’s just let it be, as long as he behaves well, it’s fine.

Yun Chunnuan closed her eyes, pondering the Grandmaster’s words, and considering how to act the next day.

On the verge of falling asleep, the man’s deep voice resonated by her ear, "Nuannuan, I can’t sleep, can you hold my hand?"

Her tightly closed eyes suddenly opened wide.

When Yun Chunnuan looked towards him, she found the man had unknowingly turned over, staring intently at her.

Startled, Yun Chunnuan instinctively closed her eyes again, pretending not to hear.

This very action seemed foolish, as her delicate Liu Mei furrowed tightly.

She turned away, saying softly, "Go to sleep early, there’s important business tomorrow."

Just holding hands made Yun Chunnuan miss her husband more.

Unfortunately, he was not her husband; the outcome would obviously be different.

Even with her back facing him, her silhouette revealed an alluring beauty.

Her long hair cascaded like a waterfall over the pillow, her thin and slender neck pale and delicate, doused in a faint glow from the flickering candlelight.

Being this close, he could clearly sense her fragrant scent.

He didn’t ask for much, just a simple touch of her hand would suffice.

Regrettably...

While Yun Chunnuan remained tense, on guard in fear he’d try something, she heard a sigh behind her.

"Nuannuan, remember what you promised me."

One day would be enough.

Before she left, it would be enough for her to wholly belong to him for one day.

He wouldn’t do anything bad to her; he just wanted her to forget the self from that world for one day.

Just be the Little Princess of this world.

He wanted to take her to see the prairie, even though she probably had already seen it.

He wanted to introduce her to Jifeng, although she might have known him for a long time.

He wanted to take her around the Royal City, though he knew all things she must’ve already done in the other world; yet he still wished that in his name, every corner of this solitary city would be filled with her presence.

"Okay." After a while, a soft response came from the bed.

Yelyu Lie curled his lips and gazed intensely, as if wishing to etch the shadow deep into his mind.

"And that wild vegetable or whatever, you said you’d cook for me."

Wild vegetables were of no interest to Yelyu Lie; only big fish and meat could satisfy his appetite.

But it was when the Little Princess’s eyes shone brightly that she mentioned them.

He wanted to taste them, even if they were poisonous, to see what they tasted like.

Lying on his side, for some reason, a hint of moisture appeared at the corners of Yun Chunnuan’s eyes.

Was he trying to create memories?

Knowing clearly she would leave, never to return, and yet still doing all this...

Yun Chunnuan held back, refraining from thinking about the future.

But at this moment, she couldn’t help but wonder what would happen to him after she left?

Would he forget her?

Would he find a woman he loved and live a good life?

It wasn’t sad; she just hoped someone could bring him happiness, letting him live safely and soundly in this world.

"Yes."

She replied softly.

She had never mentioned it before, but finally, she spoke, "Don’t remain loyal to the King of Bianliao. Two years later, he will summon Tie Muhun back, colluding with the Western Khan to take your power and life.

In my world, you rebelled, but instead of becoming king yourself, you let our son ascend the throne.

So, don’t be silly anymore.

I hope you won’t be harmed in any way.

You will be well.

We will both be well."

Maybe the heat from the smoke screen was too much, causing Yun Chunnuan’s eyes to gradually become warmer.

Her chest was suffocating, with an inexplicable feeling of breathlessness.

After all, he was the husband of this world; worrying about him was only natural...

She thus consoled herself.
