Rebirth: He refused to Divorce Again-Chapter 1141: Like a Little Kitten Nestled in His Arms
Gu Qiaoqiao felt a warmth in her eyes, and a surge of tenderness in her heart, as she leaned against Qin Yize’s chest, slowly closing her eyes.
In this lifetime, having Qin Yize by her side is enough!
At this moment, the night had completely darkened, and after Gu Qiaoqiao relaxed, a sudden wave of exhaustion hit her unexpectedly.
Actually, this day was truly tiring; she only had a simple meal in the morning, skipped lunch, and chased the village chief until dusk...
Even though she was from the Mystic Sect, even though her health was good, and her fingers carried spiritual energy, at her core, she was still an ordinary young girl.
Therefore, Gu Qiaoqiao’s nerves were quite tense throughout the day.
After eating and relaxing, Gu Qiaoqiao felt truly exhausted.
Especially when nestled in the warm, safe embrace of Qin Yize, this feeling was even stronger.
Almost instantly, Gu Qiaoqiao drifted into a deep sleep.
Qin Yize originally wanted to ask Gu Qiaoqiao a few things, and hold her for a while...
Then he realized the Gu Qiaoqiao in his arms had become quiet. He looked down and indeed saw Gu Qiaoqiao was already asleep... 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞
Just like usual, her breathing was gentle and shallow, like a little kitten nestled in his arms...
Qin Yize gently placed his hand on Gu Qiaoqiao’s hair, softly stroking her smooth long hair, a slight smile forming at his lips, full of tenderness and affection in his heart.
He realized that Gu Qiaoqiao was truly exhausted, otherwise she wouldn’t have fallen asleep so quickly.
Qin Yize carefully laid Gu Qiaoqiao down.
Then he used a stick to push the fire towards the cave’s entrance, cleaned the spot where the fire was, and spread a bundle of herbal grass on it.
He touched it with his hand; it was warm, reminiscent of the heated kang bed in the Border City in the north.
He opened his military backpack, took out a small blanket, spread it over the herbal grass, lifted Gu Qiaoqiao onto the blanket, and then covered her with the other half of the blanket.
He wrapped the herbal grass around a few times and placed a book from his backpack beside it, creating a simple pillow for Qiaoqiao, making her even more comfortable as she slept.
With a slight smile on her lips.
Qin Yize sat cross-legged beside Gu Qiaoqiao, slightly bowed his head, and gazed at her.
Gu Qiaoqiao lying down appeared petite.
Beautiful like a flower blooming in the silent night.
Yet such a small and beautiful girl had accomplished many major tasks.
Many things that even men found daunting.
If it continued this way, Qin Yize worried that one day he might not be able to match her.
So, for the future, he needed to strive even harder.
But for now, he needed to keep an eye on Gu Qiaoqiao, because after this task was over, he had to arrange something big for both of them.
Otherwise, his heart remained unsettled.
The night grew darker, but the Mysterious Dragon Box still glowed steadily.
Qin Yize listened intently to the sounds outside the cave, the mountain wind blowing, some nocturnal beasts passing through the forest...
But this cave seemed like an imaginary land of joy and plenty.
He knew it was because Gu Qiaoqiao had drawn a barrier talisman here; he watched sweetly sleeping Gu Qiaoqiao, really unsure how much energy was hidden within her petite body.
Qin Yize reached out, very gently touching Gu Qiaoqiao’s cheek.
The smoothness under his touch made his heart flutter.
After a few breaths, he regretfully withdrew his hand.
He knew Gu Qiaoqiao was very tired and exhausted these days
Both physically and mentally quite tense.
And he was very happy that after seeing him, Gu Qiaoqiao could relax completely.
That represented an intimate relationship between Gu Qiaoqiao and him, distinct from others.
At this moment, Qin Yize felt this cave and Gu Qiaoqiao before him were his whole world.
It was not until around four in the morning that night seemed to gradually fade.
Being in the mountains, it wasn’t possible to see the sunrise immediately, but the sky to the east was slightly lightening.
In a while, the rosy dawn would fill the sky; it would be a beautiful day.
Qin Yize positioned his body facing the cave’s entrance.
This was a position that provided comprehensive protection for Qiaoqiao.
But he didn’t lie down, remaining seated as before, occasionally stretching his slightly sore and numb body, checking the time, then closing his eyes to take a brief rest.
In such a night, this cave with only him and Qiaoqiao, he couldn’t sleep deeply.
And now was completely safe; the night had passed.
He needed a simple rest, because after breakfast, they still had to travel.
When Gu Qiaoqiao woke up, this was the scene she saw.
Qin Yize facing the cave entrance, sitting cross-legged on the ground, and although such a posture made his tall body seem somewhat cramped, his brows were relaxed.
The expression on his face was gentle and calm.
Gu Qiaoqiao knew Qin Yize only showed such expressions when he relaxed; she quietly raised her wrist to check the watch, it was exactly six thirty-five.
She thought, Qin Yize must have just fallen asleep.
Last night she slept too quickly and deeply, therefore didn’t tell Qin Yize that in such a cave, one could rest with complete peace of mind, no one could enter.
But Gu Qiaoqiao immediately knew, that even with this understanding, Qin Yize would still protect her this way.
Gu Qiaoqiao thought about it, decided not to move; after all, neither of them had to work or attend school at this moment.
Moreover, it was apparent that Qin Yize hadn’t slept for long.
He was in a light sleep phase right now, and if she moved, Qin Yize would definitely wake up too.
This was an alertness buried deep in his bones, deeply ingrained.
Gu Qiaoqiao didn’t move, slightly closed her eyes, and tried to breathe lightly.
Also contemplating the next steps...
She would still keep an eye on the matters in Cliff Village, wondering what the outcome for those people would be, was there any who escaped?
Then she needed to go to the armed forces with Qin Yize, the village chief was surely being watched, guarded by some soldiers, lost everything at his disposal, he wouldn’t stir trouble.
The most important thing was that he got hurt.
Temporarily couldn’t get up.
However, better safe than sorry; what if the village chief wakes up later and threatens Luh Fei and the others, it would be terrible.
Gu Qiaoqiao then comforted herself, recognizing that it would take him a month to recover fully from a coma.
So there shouldn’t be much of an issue.
Xiao Wen and Ling Nan must be quite anxious, knowing she’s fine, but it’s already been an afternoon and night without seeing her, they might be wandering recklessly in the mountains.
