MTL - Perfect Encounter-Chapter 77
Long Da continued: "I saw her getting close to Zeqing one time, and I was a little unhappy, so I stayed in the barracks for a few days, and the more I was outside, the more I missed her, so I was sure that she was in my heart. A different girl. I will come back, teach her skills, discuss matters with her, and let her take care of my daily life..."
The more An Ruochen listened, the more he felt something was wrong, why was this experience so familiar.
She raised her head to look at Long Da, and her heart beat wildly.
Pound thump, thump thump.
It's like the thunder of war drums, and the blood is rushing.
"She's amazing when she's smart, and annoying when she's stupid. Sometimes I can't figure out whether she really doesn't understand or is just pretending. I tell her that I like her, but she only cares about my angry sentence that I don't want to be with her." Talk." Long Da stared into An Ruochen's eyes, "She can detect the enemy's clues and analyze every move carefully, but she doesn't understand my behavior and hints to her, and doesn't understand my words."
An Ruochen opened his mouth wide in surprise. Don't think too much, don't panic.
But boom, boom, boom, my heart is about to jump out of my chest.
"Miss An Ruochen, I have never been so happy with a girl as I am with you. I like you."
An Ruochen felt that she was about to be unable to breathe.
"If you don't understand anymore, if you interrupt again, if you lose your mind again, I will punish you to read it a hundred times."
Wait, where did it go? An Ruochen took a deep breath, let the drummer rest for a while, "What do you punish me for saying a hundred times?"
"Long Teng likes An Ruochen."
An Ruochen: "..."
"If reading doesn't work, write it."
An Ruochen: "..."
"Until she fully understands the meaning without interruption or distraction."
"Understood, I understand." An Ruochen nodded quickly. It doesn't matter if you read it a hundred times or something, she can bear it if you copy it a hundred times, just afraid that the general will be naive and let her finish writing and post it on the city gate. According to the general's waywardness, how could she think that he could do such a thing.
"Since you understand, let's talk back." Long Da was serious and serious.
An Ruochen: "..." General, you just said you liked me, didn't you mean you wanted me to fight? This expression is strange and frightening.
"You're distracted again." Long Da frowned.
"I do not have."
"Then you're just thinking about how to interrupt."
"I do not have."
"Then give me an answer." Long said sternly.
It would be nice if I could faint for a while.
An Ruochen raised his face and looked at the General, he was so good-looking, even with a straight face and frowning, his eyes were deep and bright, and there was tension in his eyes.
The General is nervous!
Just like her!
An Ruochen took another deep breath and opened her mouth. Seeing her actions made the General even more nervous, and her heart beat faster.
"Let me think about it," she said quickly.
"What?" Long Da didn't hear clearly. Why are you talking so fast.
"I'll think about it." An Ruochen blushed and spoke slowly, but her voice was much softer.
"Thinking about what?" Long Da frowned.
An Ruochen bit her lip, not knowing what to say for a moment.
"You must also like me." Long said.
An Ruochen's face flushed red, is it appropriate to expose it so directly? General!
Long Da ignored her blushing, and said again: "I'm not holding you back, but it's a fact that I'm kind to you. I'm not using the powerful to suppress you, but it's a fact that I'm a second-rank official. I'm not using my appearance to seduce you , but it is a fact that I am handsome.”
An Ruochen was dumbfounded, General, are you serious? Is this showing off your strengths or trying to add a bit of boastful cuteness?
"I know you must like me. I'm not as confused as you. I know how you treat me." The tone was full of confidence and affirmation.
After everything was said by him, An Ruochen had to carefully ask for advice: "Then what do you want me to answer, General?"
"When will you get married?"
An Ruochen's jaw was about to drop.
"You and I are not young. Although the timing is not very good, you know that the timing will never be good now. You don't know when to fight, and you don't know when to seize it. You can't just because of these, I will not do the things that should be done. I have been stationed at the border for three years. We can't wait for a few years. Since we like each other, we can make a marriage. Do what needs to be done, don't delay. " Long Da analyzed the situation of the war and generally analyzed the marriage arrangements.
An Ruochen blinked, still adapting to the situation.
"What do you think?" Long Da asked.
"I'll think it over."
"Think about what?"
An Ruochen was silent for a while, looking at Long Da's appearance, it seemed that he would not give up if she didn't speak out, "General, why didn't Xizuo kill me?"
Long Da stared at her, and suddenly started to walk back and forth, with an angry expression on his face: "Look, I knew it, it was either distracted or interrupted!"
"I do not have."
"I still don't admit it!"
"I'm seriously thinking about it." An Ruochen pulled him back, raised his head and looked into his eyes very seriously: "I'm serious. Why don't you kill me? The general favors me, the general treats me well, so they just wait This is the day when the general said he was in love with me."
Long Da calmed down and looked at her.
"The general has no weaknesses, no handles."
But if you fall in love with a girl, that's all there is to it.
"It's too late, An Ruochen." Long Dao said, "If this is really their trick, I've already fallen for it."
An Ruochen suddenly felt her eyes heat up, and felt that this sentence touched her more than "I like you". It's not just "I like you", but "I also like you knowing that moths are flying into the flame".
An Ruochen quickly lowered her head, tears fell into the grass. She blinked, wiping away the tears. When he raised his head again, he was much calmer. She said to Long Dao: "I'll think about it."
Long Da frowned dissatisfied: "Isn't there already a conclusion? You don't have to think about it if you've already been tricked."
An Ruochen also frowned in dissatisfaction: "Can't you think about something else? You have to think about what to do after being tricked!"
Long Da opened his mouth to speak, but was interrupted by An Ruochen: "Today is late, go back to sleep. We will discuss it another day." After speaking, he walked away with his hands behind his back.
Long Dawan didn't expect the situation to be reversed, the girl suddenly became fierce, and before he could react, she suddenly turned back and jumped in front of him, tiptoed and grabbed his lapel and said: "You are not allowed to tell others Woolen cloth."
"say what?"
"Say you like me."
"Does that matter?!" The general looked disgusted.
"Then don't say I like you."
"Not to mention this." The general's disgust became more obvious.
"Anyway, keep it a secret." An Ruochen frowned very seriously, but just after she finished speaking, she felt her body tighten, and was hugged by the general.
He sighed softly next to his ear: "It turns out that this is the feeling of holding you in my arms."
An Ruochen suddenly softened, his heart softened, and his body softened. She hesitated for a while, then stretched out her hand to embrace the General.
It turns out that this is what it feels like to hug the general's waist. She also wanted to sigh loudly.
Long laughed, and she could feel the vibration in his chest.
Then her ears were rubbed, then her head was touched and he ran his fingers through her hair. It made her face almost burn.
She looked up to see his expression, but he took the opportunity to lower his head, and the tip of his nose touched hers, making her breathe quickly, but she didn't escape. He turned his face slightly, as if he wanted to press down on her lips, his movements were very slow, as if he was giving her a chance to refuse.
An Ruochen's heart was pounding loudly, he was hesitating, but he didn't move, when he heard a scream not far away.
Both Long Da and An Ruochen were shocked, and quickly looked in that direction. It was a groom who walked by with a lantern and saw them. After the groom finished shouting, he realized what he saw. He took several steps back and waved his hands again and again: "Will, will, will..." He couldn't finish his words, so he turned his head and ran away.
An Ruochen stared dumbfounded at the groom's back disappearing, feeling that she had no face to go to the stables anymore.
Long Da touched her face, asked her to look at him, and asked happily, "Manager An, does this person want to silence him?"
An Ruochen pushed him away violently, and ran away, her face was burning and her heart was beating so hard that she wanted to sing. Of course you can't silence it, you can't silence it, she can just bury herself first with a quilt!
When I first fell asleep, I was very nervous, for fear that the general would chase me.
The result is not.
Then she felt a little disappointed again, and then she covered her head with the quilt and secretly laughed, laughing and feeling distressed.
An Ruo woke up late the next day because she couldn't sleep in the first half of the night, and she slept too soundly in the second half of the night, and no one called her. When she got up, she heard that the general had gone out.
It's good, too, so she has time to think about it.
In the afternoon, the guards came to report that the general had returned, and he asked steward An to prepare and go to the prefect's mansion for a banquet later.
An Ruochen quickly dressed herself up, and personally checked the etiquette that the general will bring to the banquet, and they were all in place, then went to Longda's courtyard. Long Da was still reading a letter, when she came to look up, he said, "Wait until I finish reading this."
An Ruochen replied "Okay", and went to collect the clothes and accessories that he should go to the banquet. These were all ready, took them out, checked them, sorted them and placed them on his bed. Then I found out the New Year's card she had prepared earlier, which was to be sent to the officials along with the etiquette, but the post was still empty, and Long Da hadn't written and signed it yet.
An Ruochen took the post to the desk, and Long Da was giving instructions to the letter. An Ruochen waited for him to finish writing, then stuffed the post and handed him a piece of paper, "It happens that the pen and ink are all there, copy this sentence and sign it, there are fifteen copies in total."
Long Da raised his eyebrows. An Ruochen said: "I gave it to the general earlier, but the general didn't write it down. These etiquettes will be used today."
Long Da looked at her, his gaze was too intense, An Ruochen hurriedly took two steps back, "General, write quickly, or it will be too late."
Long Da looked at her, sighed, and copied it obediently. An Ruochen was waiting on the side. After he finished writing a sheet, she put it aside to dry the ink. Long Da quickly finished writing. An Ruochen was reaching out to take the last sheet, but Long Da grabbed his wrist. An Ruochen Startled, the next moment he was pulled into his arms.
An Ruochen didn't dare to exclaim, dared to attract the attention of the guards outside. She sat on Long Da's lap and subconsciously turned her head to look at the door.
Long Da turned her face back, An Ruochen hurriedly said: "The door is open."
Long Da frowned: "Why didn't you close the door when you came in?"
"It was never closed before."
Long Dao: "Then you go to close it now."
An Ruochen's face flushed: "I don't want it. People will think we are going to do something."
Long Da looked serious: "I'm planning to do something, it's not easy to kill too many people."
Teasing her again, An Ruochen wrinkled her nose, jumped off his lap, and tidied up the courtesy cards on the table: "General, change quickly."
"How do you think about it?" Long Da didn't ask anyone to wait on him, and went behind the screen to change his clothes.
"Well, I really thought about it." An Ruochen prepared all the things and stood and waited.
After a while, Long Da came out, raised his eyebrows and looked at her, "What happened?"
General is so nice. With a sweet heart in her heart, An Ruochen stepped forward to straighten his collar and waist ornaments for him. Then he was caught by Long Da: "The result of consideration."
"The situation is like this." An Ruochen began to speak earnestly, "Maybe there is a real reason why you don't kill me. I am close to the general, which is what they want. Maybe there was a reason for belittling and underestimating me in the past. But now that Liu Ze's influence has been eradicated, and Mr. Min has been exposed, the general said that they must redeploy. Maybe a new manager will come. And this manager, seeing the situation in Zhonglan City, may be in a different situation gone."
"That's true."
"So I want to seize this opportunity to get a few things done first. First is the trouble at my house. They have never stopped. Although my father was tortured with twenty sticks in the previous period, he will live in peace. For a while, but if Qian Pei didn't give up the entanglement, my father would definitely be instigated to not give up. So I thought, first of all, I should hurry up and get my second sister's marriage done. She wants to marry to another county. To be honest, although I don't think she is so bad-hearted, she is on the side of her father and her mother after all. I pity her, but I have to be wary of her. If she marries far away, it will be difficult for me It's good."
Long Da frowned. I remembered those words about finding a good son or something.
An Ruochen ignored his narrow-mindedness, and continued: "There is also Qian Pei, he deliberately asked the second sister to say that he bought a little girl, and he didn't know what he wanted to do. But he really has a grudge against me. Now that he has not been involved in the case of the Merchant Shipbuilding Department, I am afraid that Liu Deli is not the only one in his hands, even the prefect is afraid of him. I think I will meet Mr. Qian by chance today. , look at the attitudes of Lord Prefect and Lord Qian towards this matter."
"Well. And then."
"Then my fourth aunt went crazy. She asked my second sister to poison me. My second sister didn't dare. But my second sister couldn't stop her. Speaking of which, she is also a poor woman. When my second sister marries far away Now, I don't care about the people over there in the An family anymore."
Long Dao: "Your heart is too soft."
An Ruochen said: "These are trivial matters, but they are just a little annoying. The most important thing is that if Mr. Min really leaves, what is the intention and method of the person who will replace him. There are still people in the yamen and the military. Their people, how does he plan to reorganize in Zhonglan City, and what is his plan for my chess piece? We can figure out the countermeasures after we have figured out the enemy's route. Besides, Mr. Min retreated in defeat in Zhonglan City, then What impact will it have on the frontline warfare? The general is busy these days, so he must be arranging these things."
Long Da sighed: "I don't know whether I should be happy or annoyed by these considerations of you."
"Why?" An Ruochen frowned, she didn't understand, she was so serious, why should she be annoyed.
"I mentioned the love between men and women with you, and you discussed the worries of war with me. How can you not take my love for you to heart?"
"Leave it alone. This is not what I was about to say. The general cared for me, arranged for Lord Lu and Lord Tian to protect me, teach me martial arts, give me weapons, and guide me in various strategies. The general wants to protect me. I understand in my heart .I also want to protect the general. I will not be lazy anymore. I will study hard and practice hard so that the general will not worry. The general can do things with peace of mind and no worries. But we don't know the intention of the detailed work. Before their next plan is clear, It’s good for us to keep the status quo. The general said that others can see it and know it naturally, but guessing in our hearts and making a big show of ourselves are two different things. If we don’t say it, we will have no idea if we do it carefully.”
