448. Waking Up (III)Translator: Storm in a Teacup

Shi Qingzhou paused and changed the topic. “Why are you here?”

Long Xiaoyuan’s heart skipped a beat.

Qingzhou hadn’t got over this!

Long Xiaoyuan pursed his lower lip tightly, not letting Shi Qingzhou change the topic. He grabbed Shi Qingzhou’s wrist.

Shi Qingzhou looked at Long Xiaoyuan, who said firmly, “Qingzhou, don’t blame yourself. If you’re angry with me, hit me and scold me to ease your anger. Don’t suppress it. I’m scared.”

Shi Qingzhou stiffened, but he didn’t say anything.

Long Xiaoyuan grabbed his hand and continued softly, “Qingzhou, do you know that I’ve been conscious? These past few days, I knew that you were by my side and I knew what you said to me. I tried hard to respond but I couldn’t open my eyes.”

Shi Qingzhou paused. “Did you know?”

“Yes, I knew.” Long Xiaoyuan’s voice was particularly gentle. “I knew you kissed me, I knew you said goodbye, and I knew that you asked me to wake up early. I knew all of this… I tried very hard to wake up, but no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t wake up. Qingzhou, do you know how scared I was? Qingzhou, at that time, I was really scared that we would be separated forever. It was such a cruel thing. I used to think if I die, I wish you to live well. Later I thought it would be nice if we could live and die together. Only death could part us. Until then did I know that it was not love. I was selfish. I couldn’t bear that I am not able to touch you after I die, while you live on in this world, where others could see you and touch you, Qingzhou, Qingzhou.”

Long Xiaoyuan abruptly hugged Shi Qingzhou.

Shi Qingzhou trembled. Although he was stiff at first, he gradually wrapped Long Xiaoyuan’s waist with his hands.

Long Xiaoyuan hugged him in his arms when he sensed his change.

Shi Qingzhou closed his eyes, and Long Xiaoyuan kissed his ear.

“Qingzhou, no matter what we do, we will stay together from now on. No matter what happens, we will stay together and hold each other’s hands, okay?”

Shi Qingzhou paused and nodded slowly. “Okay.”

Long Xiaoyuan released Shi Qingzhou slightly and kissed him on the lips.

It was a passionate kiss.

Long Xiaoyuan deepened the kiss, as if he wanted to swallow Shi Qingzhou alive.

Even though Shi Qingzhou was calm, his heart was burning with excitement from such an intense kiss.

After a long time, Long Xiaoyuan let go of Shi Qingzhou.

Long Xiaoyuan finally realized that kisses could be suffocating.

After he released Shi Qingzhou, Long Xiaoyuan smoothed Shi Qingzhou’s hair beside the ear.

“Qingzhou, I love you.”

Shi Qingzhou closed his eyes. “I know.”

Long Xiaoyuan pecked his mouth. “You’ve worked hard these days. Have a good rest. I’ll take care of the rest.”

Shi Qingzhou shook his head. “I wouldn’t sit back and wait. I want to capture that man personally. I swore it.”

Looking at Shi Qingzhou’s serious face, Long Xiaoyuan in the end smiled and nodded slowly. “Okay, I’ll wait for you to catch that man and avenge me.”

Shi Qingzhou nodded firmly. “Okay.”

Long Xiaoyuan kissed his face, “How is the situation now?”

Shi Qingzhou explained the current situation.

It was pretty much the same as the information that Liu Suifeng received.

The only difference was that King of Three had sufficient food.

Although they only had five thousand people, they brought food with them when they entered the valley.

Therefore, even if they stayed in the valley for a month, they would not go hungry.

Now the troops of Huhe Huangcheng and the Tianlong Dynasty had surrounded the valley, and no one could come out of it even if they dug tunnels.

Because the battle line was too long.

However, King of Three was not an idiot. Although he was stuck in the valley, he could contact the people outside.

For example, if he wanted to contact the general who supported him, he just needed to fire the signal at the sky.

Therefore, it was not difficult for King of Three to contact the general.

Huhe Huangcheng’s troops had not been able to end all the wars. However, he still got the upper hand on the whole, as most of the enemy forces had been eliminated.

But if the general wanted to lead the rest of the army and fought a life-and-death battle with Huhe Huangcheng, Huhe Huangcheng would have a hard time.

Therefore, Huhe Huangcheng and Tianlong Dynasty were worried that the general who supported King of Three would start a deadly counterattack.

In that case, the troops on both sides might be able to defeat the general, but King of Three might take the chance and flee in the chaos.

That would waste all their previous efforts.

Neither Shi Qingzhou nor Huhe Huangcheng would like to let such a strong enemy at large.

After listening to Shi Qingzhou’s explanation, Long Xiaoyuan asked, “Qingzhou, do you have any plans?”

Shi Qingzhou paused and said lightly, “Yes.”

“What is it?” Long Xiaoyuan asked.

Shi Qingzhou looked at Long Xiaoyuan and said lightly, “It’s difficult for the soldiers to storm the valley. We can use poison.”

Long Xiaoyuan paused. “Poison?”

Shi Qingzhou said, “Yes. We can use poison. Since they are rebels, they will be executed sooner or later. What’s the difference if they die of poison earlier?”

Long Xiaoyuan suddenly felt that Shi Qingzhou seemed to have changed, but he was not afraid of his change. His heart ached.

Long Xiaoyuan said softly, “I don’t care about those people, but I am afraid that you will commit the sin. Qingzhou, don’t do that if you have another way. Otherwise, we will be the same as King of Three, who wants to destroy a city.”

Shi Qingzhou fell silent.

Long Xiaoyuan kissed his mouth. “Qingzhou, what do you think?”

Shi Qingzhou glanced at Long Xiaoyuan and said slowly, “I don’t have to use this method, but we must catch King of Three. If I have to use poison to get him in the end, I will not hesitate.”

Long Xiaoyuan was not scared by Shi Qingzhou, and he nodded in agreement instead. “If things come to that stage, I will do it with you. But I believe that we can find a way to the valley.”

Shi Qingzhou didn’t say anything else.

Long Xiaoyuan pulled Shi Qingzhou’s hand. “Qingzhou, I’m tired from the long journey. I believe you are tired too. Can you rest with me for a while?”

Shi Qingzhou nodded. “Okay.”

Long Xiaoyuan smiled.

The two of them slept for a long time. The next morning, Long Xiaoyuan woke up when Shi Qingzhou was still asleep.

Long Xiaoyuan didn’t wake up Shi Qingzhou and went outside.

He saw Ouyang Chuan and walked up to him with a smile.

Ouyang Chuan stood there stiffly at sight of Long Xiaoyuan.

Long Xiaoyuan approached Ouyang Chuan with a smile. “Ouyang Chuan.”

Ouyang Chuan stared at Long Xiaoyuan for a long time before he stuttered.

“How are you?”

Long Xiaoyuan smiled. “I’m fine. Can’t you tell?”

Ouyang Chuan pursed his lips tightly. “I’m sorry.”

Long Xiaoyuan smiled and patted Ouyang Chuan on the shoulder. “Don’t say anything like that. You don’t take me as a friend!”

Ouyang Chuan paused and didn’t say anything.

Long Xiaoyuan continued with a smile, “Ouyang Chuan, you’re fine. That’s good. And look at me. I’m fine as well. You are a man, so don’t be a sissy. People will laugh at you”

Looking at Long Xiaoyuan’s sincere face, t Ouyang Chuan was finally relieved.

Long Xiaoyuan said seriously, “I should apologize to you. You know how Qingzhou is. He’s anxious for me. I hope you don’t mind.”

Ouyang Chuan said hurriedly, “Not at all. It’s my fault.”

Long Xiaoyuan hurriedly waved his hand. “Come on. Stop blaming anyone now. It was an accident. Now that everyone is safe, this is the best result.”

Long Xiaoyuan’s words finally convinced Ouyang Chuan, who nodded. “Okay.”

Long Xiaoyuan smiled. “Good. If you are a man, stop thinking about this.”

Ouyang Chuan nodded. “Okay.”

After that, Ouyang Chuan left. Long Xiaoyuan turned around and saw Shi Qingzhou behind him.

He should have heard what they just said.

Long Xiaoyuan walked over with a smile. “Qingzhou, are you awake?”

Shi Qingzhou looked at Long Xiaoyuan with dark eyes.

Long Xiaoyuan kissed Shi Qingzhou’s mouth. “Qingzhou, Ouyang Chuan and Liu Suifeng have done more for us. Besides, aren’t we all fine now? They are our friends, and we can’t keep taking things from them. I believe that you are not a petty person. However, if you are still angry, we can make good use of them. After all, we have a lot of time.”

Shi Qingzhou looked at Long Xiaoyuan and said lightly, “You hurried here because you were afraid I would hurt him, right?”

“Not at all.” Long Xiaoyuan instantly felt he was wronged.” Qingzhou, how could you think that way? You know that I miss you the most. How could I come here for someone else? You’ve got me wrong, I’m not happy!”

Long Xiaoyuan was so pretentious that Shi Qingzhou rolled his eyes.

Long Xiaoyuan hurriedly went up and grabbed Shi Qingzhou’s wrist. “Qingzhou, weren’t you sleeping when I got up? Why did you wake up so early? Can’t you sleep well when I’m not by your side?”

“No, I can’t.” Shi Qingzhou replied indifferently.

Long Xiaoyuan was startled. He did not expect Shi Qingzhou to admit it so easily!

“Qingzhou.”

Shi Qingzhou glanced at him indifferently. “I haven’t eaten for a long time. Don’t you feel hungry?”

“Yes. Of course, I feel hungry.” Long Xiaoyuan immediately said and pulled Shi Qingzhou into the tent.

“Qingzhou, stay here. Just wait for the Shadow Guardians to serve the food. By the way, do you want to call your father over?”

“No need. Father gets up the earliest, and he should have had breakfast already.” Long Xiaoyuan said, “Oh, I see. Let’s have the breakfast ourselves.”

“Okay,” Shi Qingzhou replied lightly.

Although Shi Qingzhou had an impassive expression, Long Xiaoyuan thought this matter had been solved since Shi Qingzhou did not say anything about Ouyang Chuan.

Long Xiaoyuan was glad.

After breakfast, the soldiers came to report that there were unusual movements in the valley.

Therefore, Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou went straight to take a look.

On the way, they met Liu Suifeng and Ouyang Chuan.

Liu Suifeng and Ouyang Chuan paused at sight of Shi Qingzhou.

Long Xiaoyuan took Shi Qingzhou’s hand and went up to them, as if nothing had happened…

He looked natural, and Ouyang Chuan and Liu Suifeng exchanged a glance, thinking that Shi Qingzhou…

He was not angry anymore?

Long Xiaoyuan said, “Have you had breakfast yet?”

Liu Suifeng said, “Yes. What about you?”

“We have just had breakfast. I wonder what has happened in the valley. Are you guys going over there?”

“Yes.”

Long Xiaoyuan continued, “Alright, let’s go together. Liu Suifeng, perhaps we would need your help.”

“No problem. If there’s anything you need, just tell us.”

“Okay, Bro. I was waiting for you to say this.” Long Xiaoyuan laughed and patted Liu Suifeng’s shoulder.

Liu Suifeng instinctively looked at Shi Qingzhou, feeling relieved when he saw that Shi Qingzhou was not displeased.
