Gu Jiaojiao stayed in a tent with Yan Haoxiang that night.
This is completely different from how she felt when she went to suppress bandits and lived in the camp.
Gu Jiaojiao was buried in Yan Haoxiang's arms, her arms around his waist, and the moonlight shone in through the tent. In the quiet night, in addition to hearing the crackling sound of the bonfire burning outside, she also heard Yan Haoxiang's powerful heartbeat.
A pair of big hands gently stroked her hair, and Yan Haoxiang's lowered voice sounded.
Gu Jiaojiao answered, raised her head, and looked at him by the moonlight.
gujiaojiaoAren't you too?
gujiaojiaoWhat are you thinking? Thinking about tomorrow?
Yan Haoxiang hugged her tightly, his chin pressed against his head, and Gu Jiaojiao pressed against his chest, feeling the slight vibration as he spoke.
yanhaoxiangI don't know myself
Gu Jiaojiao then changed the topic.
gujiaojiaoHave you ever fought?
yanhaoxiangIt's just that I haven't fought with Feng Ming
yanhaoxiangAt first, I was obsessed with escaping the breathless palace, so I thought of a way to get my father to allow me to go on an expedition
yanhaoxiangI thought it was simple, but it was a battlefield, either you die or I live
Gu Jiaojiao gently rubbed her hand on his back.
gujiaojiaoHave you ever been injured?
gujiaojiaoThen you have to keep this good luck, I don't want to see you hurt
yanhaoxiangDon't worry, I won't
yanhaoxiangIt will be over soon
gujiaojiaoThat's what I should say to you
Gu Jiaojiao leaned obediently in his arms, closed her eyes, and listened to his gradual and gentle breathing, but she still couldn't sleep.
With light hands and feet, Gu Jiaojiao carefully withdrew from Yan Haoxiang's arms. Looking at his furrowed brows when he fell asleep, Gu Jiaojiao sighed, reached out and gently smoothed the folds, tucked the quilt for him, turned around and lifted the tent out.
Who would have thought that she was the only one who couldn't sleep this night, so Gu Jiaojiao walked over.
gujiaojiaoYou haven't slept yet
hejunlinOoh, you startled me
hejunlinWe should ask you this
zhangzhenyuanYour Highness
Gu Jiaojiao sat down beside them.
gujiaojiaoWhy are you sitting here
hejunlinLike you, can't sleep
hejunlinYan Haoxiang fell asleep?
gujiaojiaoHmm, just slept
zhangzhenyuanI'm an old problem
zhangzhenyuanI'm never sleepy the night before a war
gujiaojiaoSo you didn't run out of energy the next day?
zhangzhenyuanNo, I'm used to it
hejunlinDon't worry, he's fine
He Junlin stretched out his hand and plucked the bonfire, and the firewood burned more vigorously, dispelling the cold in the middle of the night. Gu Jiaojiao thought of what Yan Haoxiang said just now.
gujiaojiaoThat general, have you been wounded in battle?
Zhang Zhenyuan thought about it.
zhangzhenyuanI suffered a lot of injuries at first, but I'm fine now
gujiaojiaoWhat about you?
He Junlin shrugged.
hejunlinOur kind of competition is all about the end, it's not like a war
Gu Jiaojiao wrapped her hands around her, and her chin was on her arm to look at them.
gujiaojiaoWhether it's you or Haoxiang
gujiaojiaoI don't want you to get hurt, no matter what, put yourself first, promise me, okay?
Both of them were stunned, or He Junlin reacted first.
hejunlinDon't worry, we're fine
zhangzhenyuanYes, you don't have to worry, we will protect Haoxiang too
gujiaojiaoThat would be fine.
zhangzhenyuanIt's getting late, go back and rest first
zhangzhenyuanYou're not like us, we're used to it outside
Gu Jiaojiao yawned unconsciously, as if sleepiness came up like this. Then she got up and waved to them.
gujiaojiaoThen I'll go back first
gujiaojiaoDon't be too late
