Chapter 140 Candle Shadow
Chapter 140 Candle Shadow
The candlelight was weak, but when he raised his eyes to look at Kuang Lu in front of him, the burning light in his eyes seemed to light up the whole room for a moment.
He and her have been facing each other day and night for thousands of years, but such intimate contact is very rare.
He stretched out his hand to caress her face, his fingers were blazing, and his eyes were fixed, as if he was admiring a rare work of art, a rare treasure that only belonged to him.
"Your Majesty, shall we put out the candles? You look at me like this..."
The woman's voice was tense and shy.Although I had already experienced it once when I was doing Rongle, but at that time it was driven by the medicine and I was unconscious, so I couldn't feel the anxiety at this moment.
Runyu said, "Call my name."
The tone was gentle and polite, but her hands didn't mean to settle down at all. Kuang Lu dodged a little and begged: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty——Runyu!"
Only then did Runyu stop, and couldn't help smiling.
What he needs is a wife who can stand side by side with him, not a subordinate who is used to looking up and obeying.
If it hadn't been for this "critical" moment, Kuang Lu's nickname for thousands of years would have been hard to change.
"Lu'er, I don't want to turn off the lights, I want to take a good look at you." His eyes were gentle like peach blossoms blooming in the rain and mist, and he pulled her hand closer and pressed it against his chest.
Embarrassed by his fiery gaze, Kuang Lu shrank her hand slightly, but felt that the palm was a little rough. She was taken aback, knowing where she had touched, and couldn't help but look up at him.
Runyu said dejectedly, "This place—it's not pretty."
Where the scales are reversed, there is a scar that will never heal.
Kuang Lu hurriedly said, "No..."
Runyu suddenly laughed, and hugged her tightly into his arms.
"Fool, kidding you."
He hugged the person in his arms, closed his eyes and murmured softly.
"I know, even if the whole world despises my body, you won't. Don't you, Luer?"
Kuang Lu nestled against his chest with peace of mind, panting slightly, and stretched out her arms to wrap his arms around his neck.
"Yes."
He kissed her forehead hair with a soft tone like spring water.
"So, I only show it to you. You are not allowed to let others see it."
Kuang Lu said angrily: "I hate it, how could I give..."
He smiled from the bottom of his heart.
He held Kuang Lu's face in his hands.
"Luer, look at me, look at me well."
His tone was gentle and calm.
"In the world, there are people who love me and respect me, and there are people who hate me and hate me. But you are the only one, no matter whether I am prominent or humble, and whether I am admired by all people or criticized by thousands of people, you will always stand behind me. "
Kuang Lu said softly: "The ?i?i are easy to break, and the bright ones are easy to stain. You don't have to worry about people's misunderstanding."
Runyu asked: "If I am not as noble and pure as you imagined, or if I become not one day, will you leave me with others?"
Kuang Lu did not hesitate: "Then I will accompany you to go crazy."
Runyu said softly, "Thank you, Luer."
His surface is calm and modest, but because he has been repeatedly betrayed by people close to him, he has extreme insecurity, low self-esteem, sensitivity, suspicion, and stubbornness.
These weaknesses and flaws, those past embarrassments and humiliations, he does not want to be known——
Also dare not be known.
Even if thousands of years have passed, even if he has changed his identity and hidden his background, those long-lasting nightmares will still be remembered inadvertently.
He once deliberately alienated Kuang Lu because he wanted to completely break with the past, unwilling to admit his feelings.She helped him break out of the cocoon and become a butterfly, but he just wanted to bury her with those unbearable past events.
Later, he finally understood that this idea was completely wrong.
Even the self he hates the most is an integral part of the human experience.The so-called being a heavenly emperor who is too forgetful is just escaping from the past.
In front of her, he can always be the truest self, and never have to worry about being abandoned or despised.Because only she, who has seen the best Runyu, is willing to accept the worst Runyu.
It was a tough decision to make.But since he chose her, he will never regret it.
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Runyu kissed her: "Lu'er, I want to hear from you, you please me."
She closed her eyes shyly, her long eyelashes trembling slightly, and refused to answer.
Runyu's voice seemed to have a charming charm: "Good Luer, if you don't want to talk about it, then prove it to me with your actions."
Kuang Lu looked at him with a pair of watery eyes, her long eyelashes were a little wet, and she looked weak and pitiful.
"sorry, I do not know."
He said softly, "It doesn't matter, I'll teach you."
She closed her eyes and nodded.
The red candlelight danced, and the lingering shadows of the two were reflected on the wall.
Runyu said softly, "Do you want another drink, Lu'er?"
His little woman needed a little catalyst, a boost of courage.
With his right hand, he conjured up a cup full of sweet-scented osmanthus wine, took a sip unhurriedly, and then pressed it to her lips.
Immediately, the intertwined lips and teeth of the two were filled with the aroma of sweet-scented osmanthus.
Her whole body was weak and weak, but her eyes were a little dazed.
"Runyu...I feel so unreal, I feel like everything is unreal now." Kuang Lu said softly.
"Why?" Runyu asked.
"Am I really with you? Is it real? Or is it just my dream?" Kuang Lu said nervously.
Runyu's voice was low and intoxicating, hitting her heart and making her feel numb all over: "You will know soon."
The long eyelashes cast a faint shadow on his jade-like cheeks, and he saw in her black pupils that his eyes were full of desire and plunder.
The flames burned into a prairie fire, passed through the six realms of reincarnation, and burned out the ten thousand year agreement, but they were caught off guard and burned her instantly.
The corner of her eyes was dim, and she saw the reflection of the candlelight on the wall next to her in a daze, like a mirror, clearly reflecting the appearance of the two of them.
She suddenly recalled it, she was so ashamed that she couldn't bear it, her body was so dizzy that she couldn't control it, she buried her head in his arms, not daring to look at his face.
"Lu'er, you've lost your mind."
He taught her solemnly: "Be attentive."
She refused to speak, and he lifted her chin: "Shy?"
Kuang Lu said aggrievedly: "You got me drunk on purpose. Killed me..."
If she wasn't drunk, she wouldn't have dared to say those words and make those embarrassing actions.
Runyu couldn't help laughing: "It's the first time I know that half a cup of sweet-scented osmanthus brew can be intoxicating."
He breathed hotly into her ear: "You might as well say that it's because you saw me, everyone gets drunk if they don't get drunk."
Kuang Lu bit her lip: "You don't have..."
That shameful word was never uttered.
He looked at her tenderly.His little dew finally began to slowly learn to get along with him like a lover.
There are still opportunities in the future.A good moment is worth a thousand dollars, and he doesn't want to waste it.
Candles flickered and shadows lingered.The flickering light reflected on the wall, outlining a charming scene.
She is like a small boat in the turbulent waves, swaying in the wind and rain, but there is no way to dodge it, she can only wave with the wind, rise and fall with the waves, and let him do whatever he wants.
While aggressively attacking the city and plundering land, at the same time being quickly defeated, but the same intention is complete.
If this is also a dream, she would rather sleep forever than wake up.
After an unknown amount of time, she rested her head on his chest and said softly:
"Runyu, I like you."
He wrapped his arms around her waist, and his chin rested lightly on the top of her head. Her cheeks were flushed, and she wanted to refuse to greet her, shy and timid, becoming more and more lovely.
"Lu'er, do you know what you look like now..."
He hesitated to speak, she let out a cry of surprise.
"Don't—um..." she protested feebly.
Before the sound came out, it was too late.
A man declares his oath only with actions.
The night is as cool as water, but it can't resist the passion like fire, which can't be quenched or extinguished.
The stars are faint, the red candles are gradually burning out, the light and shadow on the wall are lost in the silence of the night, only sweet whispers are heard, panting, and the bed curtain shakes lightly for a long time.
Fragrant sweat and wet silk, several times slightly penetrated, I don't know what night it is.
