Chapter 130 Maybe it’s because the dream came true
When Yu Xun brought the peach cakes over, his eyes immediately locked onto the people in the yard.
Li was sitting on the swing in the yard, swinging from side to side. The Phantom had been sent away by her.
Looking at Yu Xun, who had obviously bathed, changed his clothes, and dressed up, Li's mouth twitched slightly. He looked not only like a peacock spreading its feathers to court a mate, but they were exactly the same.
"Would you like to try it while it's hot?" Yu Xun handed over the peach cake in his hand.
Feeling the anticipation in his eyes, Li tasted a piece out of courtesy.
The sweet taste spread on the tip of the tongue. Li picked up another piece and handed it to Yu Xun as if nothing had happened. "General, try it too."
Yu Xun blinked, and for some reason did not reach out to take it. Instead, he leaned over and took a bite of the peach pastry from Li's hand.
So sweet~ What she feeds with her own hands is sweet...
No, this seems a bit too sweet.
The more Yu Xun chewed, the more he felt something was wrong. He couldn't help but frowned slightly. He didn't like sweets in the first place, so this bite was really unbearable for him.
However, Li had no intention of letting him go. She continued to hold up the remaining peach cake and signaled him to eat it with her eyes.
Yu Xun thought it was an illusion because he took too small a bite just now, so he ate the remaining piece in one gulp without believing it.
The sudden sweetness that hit the root of his tongue made Yu Xun unable to pretend to be calm any longer. The expression on his face was a little out of control. He could even taste the unmelted sugar cubes in his mouth. The sweetness was so sweet that Yu Xun's throat was dry and itchy.
Looking at Li's cunning and smiling eyes, Yu Xun knew that he was being fooled.
But after all, this was the first time that Li fed him food personally, and Yu Xun was reluctant to spit it out. He could only hold his breath and swallow the peach cake in his mouth with difficulty.
Yu Xun looked at the full plate of peach cakes. He didn't understand which step had gone wrong. He had clearly followed the cook's instructions step by step.
"General, do you want more?" Li took another piece and waved it in front of Yu Xun.
Yu Xun looked at the peach cake in Li's hand, which was no different from looking at a piece of poison, but if Li fed it to him again, he could accept it.
Yu Xun took a deep breath and leaned over to take the peach cake from Li's hand. However, he looked ready to die, and if you didn't know him well, you would think he was going to the battlefield.
But before Xun opened his mouth to take a bite, the piece of peach cake circled in the air and returned to Li's mouth.
"You...you're about to vomit. It's too sweet and bad for your throat. I'll ask someone to make you a new one." Yu Xun took the plate away and watched Li finish the peach pastry in his hand in a few bites. He really wanted to reach out and take it out of her mouth.
This peach cake is really hard on the throat. Li coughed a few times before he found his voice again. "The general made it himself. Would it be a bit ungrateful if I don't eat it?"
Li said as he stood up and tried to grab the peach cake from his hand. Yu Xun was startled and raised the peach cake a little higher, "No, no!"
"No, it would be a waste if we don't eat it."
Yu Xun had the advantage of height. Although Li had grown a lot taller in the past few years and was a little taller than the average Qianwu woman, she was still not tall enough in front of Yu Xun. Li could only grab Yu Xun's arm and suppress him with force.
"I'll eat it! I'll eat the rest." Yu Xun didn't expect her to be so strong. He was so scared that he picked up the peach cake and stuffed it into his mouth.
No one could have imagined that these two people, who were usually very serious, would start fighting in the yard over a plate of throat-choking peach cakes.
In the end, most of the peach cakes on the plate went into Yu Xun's stomach, but Li also used his spiritual power to snatch a few pieces away.
Yu Xun ate too much and couldn't help but retched a few times. Li was not feeling well either. He sat at the table and poured water directly into his mouth from the kettle.
Looking at each other's embarrassed appearance, the two couldn't help but laugh out loud. At this moment, the yard was full of harmony.
"Drink some water and take your time." Li poured a glass of water and walked over to hand it to Yu Xun.
But when she got closer, she found that the person's eyes were red from laughing, and when he saw her approaching, he pretended to look up at the sky.
"General, are you crying because of my sweetness?" Li looked at him curiously. This was the second time he cried in front of her.
"I was laughing." Even when he was sober, Yu Xun still felt it was a bit embarrassing and didn't want to admit that he cried.
"I wanted to laugh because I saw the general laugh. Then why was the general laughing?" Li handed the tea to Yu Xun, looking as if he wanted to get to the bottom of it.
Yu Xun raised his head and drank the tea. After suppressing the emotions in his heart, he lowered his eyes to look at Li, "Maybe it's because my dream has come true."
"Dreams come true?" Li nodded calmly. "So the little butterfly in the general's dream also competed with the general for food in this way?"
This familiar name evoked Yu Xun's deep memories. His face flushed red and he stammered, "No...no...I just..."
Li looked at the blush on Yu Xun's face with some surprise. Because he often went to the battlefield, Yu Xun's skin color was darker, which also added a lot of ruggedness and heroism to him. But with such a skin color, there was a clear blush on his face. How shy must this person be?
Li's curious look, which even wanted to attack him, made Yu Xun feel even more embarrassed, and he really wanted to escape.
"Well, I have something else to deal with..."
Just as Yu Xun turned around to leave, Li Qingleng's voice came from behind him.
"I don't think I have any romantic feelings for the general yet."
"I know." Yu Xun stopped immediately. Although he knew this was the fact, he still felt uncomfortable hearing Li say this with his own ears.
"But I don't dislike you." This was Li's real feeling. She liked teasing Yu Xun and just found his reaction interesting.
If you really ask about her attitude towards Yu Xun, Li is in a state where being together is fine, but not being together is also fine. But Yu Xun's attitude towards her after the reunion forced Li to have more concerns.
It's not that she doesn't understand love, on the contrary, she knows too much. Whether it's the realm of spiritual power or the style of doing things, there are too many gaps between her and Yu Xun, and she is not ready to include him in her future life.
As a killer, a large part of her mission is to pretend to be a variety of beauties to get close to the other party. She has seen many couples who support each other run away when disaster strikes, and she has also personally taken the lives of many people who love her.
She is a perfect killer, but not a perfect lover.
Li looked at Yu Xun's stiff back and sighed deeply, "I always do things according to my heart. If my actions make you uncomfortable in the future, you can always come and tell me."
This is the privilege I give you, a privilege that belongs only to you.
"I... understand." Yu Xun responded hesitantly and left the west courtyard as if escaping.
Inside Jinli Hall, Yu Xun looked at the empty plates and teacups in his hands in silence. He had been holding them one in each hand all the way here without noticing anything wrong.
Yu Xun casually threw the things in his hand onto the desk. Deflated, he slumped weakly on the chair with his head slightly tilted up, the back of his hands covering his already red eyes, his chest heaving violently due to his emotional fluctuations. Sooner or later, he would really die suddenly from excessive emotional fluctuations.
