Chapter 40 Charming and Quiet Night (Part 1)

"Sister, do you remember where you are? You don't belong here."

The sound of the system was caught off guard, like a thunderbolt exploding in Li Nuo's head.

"Did you take these things that Fu Chenhuan did seriously? You felt too much pity for him just now. What were you thinking when you gave him medicine and bandaged him? He asked you like that just now, what kind of reason do you have?"How do you feel about answering him?"

The system speaks fast, but the voice is very calm.In this small corner, there seems to be an illusion of being isolated from all the world behind.

Similarly, its questions are also very sharp, from the perspective of a bystander, with absolute calm and rationality that humans cannot possess, interrogating her.

Li Nuo licked his lips, and bit his lower lip carefully.

Ben relaxed the hands hanging by his side and slowly clasped them together.As if exerting force, the light blue blood vessels on the back of the thin white hand slightly bulged.

Its sound was like a handful of the coldest ice and snow hitting the top of the head, and the whole person was filled with an icy chill.

"Why haven't you spoken?" the system asked again.

Finally, Li Nuo smiled casually.

Her tone was relaxed, "No, why do you think so? Don't I always complete tasks like this,"

Li Nuo slowly replied to the system in his mind, "I talked and acted like this in the last mission, it was normal, what are you worried about? You can't suspect me of being tempted just because I didn't submit such a detailed plan to you this time."

"Old Meng, you know their thinking. Fu Chenhuan still needs to be cured. Isn't this decided from the beginning? Of course I have to treat him well. Besides, I told you before, I will treat him very well this year.Very good, not only because of the task, but also because of my own conscience, but I will not delay the final goal. You are clear about these, why would you suddenly ask such a question."

She seemed to be as ruthless as before, but she had a faint feeling that something was wrong.

"……real?"

"real."

"You didn't fool me?"

"No."

The system was silent for a while.

After a while, a confused voice came from it: "I'm really not sure. Sister, I am the assistant of your mission, and it is my duty to ensure your physical and mental safety. What you did and said this night,It makes me feel dangerous, based on what I know about you, you should not be such a good person on the spot."

Li Nuo said, "You think too much."

"I don't know what Fu Chenhuan did, but since Yuan Le told me that he will be bullied, I can't act as if I didn't hear it and come to save him; I can't be indifferent when I see him hurt.He applied medicine, asked him to change into clean clothes; he asked me such a question, would I give him a negative answer, would I say no?——this should not require any preparation, nor is it so difficultLet's improvise."

The system had to say, "Is that so?"

"What else can I do?"

The system was silent for a while: "Emotional tasks are not easy to do, I know you know that. Sister, I don't want to see you in pain like the team leaders I have worked with before."

"Fu Chenhuan must die, otherwise you will be the one who is in danger. After he dies, everything here will be written in black and white in a book, sealed and archived. This world will be permanently locked, and there will be no possibility of any changes to the plot. Therefore,What you want to do during this year is your choice, but you must not sink into a world that shouldn't sink, because there will be absolutely no result between you."

It repeats: "Absolutely nothing is going to come between you."

"I know, I never forgot that."

There was another moment of silence.Finally, the system sighed, "That's good, that's good. As long as you understand it in your heart. Sister, you are from the plot team, so I don't know. We mainly take emotional tasks, and we have seen too much. Over the years, basically three out of ten can be planted, and it is the most dangerous group to go through the bookstore, so this matter must be taken seriously."

Li Nuo endured the irritability in his heart, a little absent-minded: "Well, I understand. I don't have anything to say."

"Okay... hey wait, why did you close the connection between the system and the host last time? Then I can't protect you all the time. If it wasn't automatically turned on for a hundred hours, I wouldn't be able to talk to you.This is not acceptable, we will lack communication and may cause problems, you should not close it in the future..."

Li Nuo directly shut down the system.

Pull black, turn off two-way contact, turn off automatically after 100 hours, all in one go.

Like a girl in the rebellious period who doesn't want to listen to the earnestness of her nagging parents, she doesn't know what she is bothering about. In short, she doesn't want to hear the system talk at all now.

The mind was finally cleared, without systematic sounds, as if the whole person slowly fell from a suspended state to reality.

Li Nuo felt that she should think about something, but in reality she just stared blankly at the base of the wall in a daze.

"Nono, I've changed it." Suddenly, Fu Chenhuan said warmly from behind.

Li Nuo rubbed his stiff cheeks vigorously, and slowly turned around.

He changed into a black suit and stood beside the bed, with picturesque eyes and a unparalleled appearance, making the small and old house brighter - she had long since discovered that Fu Chenhuan mostly wore black clothes now, as if he was used to itup.

In the past, he was mostly white, gentle and elegant like jade, but now this kind of attire is absolutely gorgeous, a bit sharper than before.

She was stunned for a moment, but she was not stunned by surprise. She looked at him more like looking at a wonderful work of art.

Fu Chenhuan frowned slightly, and took two steps in her direction.

He called her by name, "Nono."

Li Nuo regained consciousness slightly.

Every time she finished talking to the system, her sense of separation between the real world and the world in the book would be stronger than ever. The charming candlelight filled the room just now, and the cold ambiguity in the dark night were all temporarily drowned by this sense of separation..

Until Fu Chenhuan approached her, his deep and clear voice called her, like a wine-like Gu.The sense of reality of the world has returned, the warmth in the house, the tranquility of the quiet night and the inexplicable lingering in the air are gradually enveloping.

Li Nuo came to his senses, and quickly walked two steps towards him, "Hey——what are you doing, don't move, who told you to walk around, the wound on your body has just been bandaged, sit here quickly."

She climbed into his arms with a pair of small hands and led him to the side of the bed.

Fu Chenhuan just let her do whatever she wanted gently.

After settling the person down, Li Nuo suddenly realized something, knelt down in front of him, hesitated and said, "Brother Chenhuan, I noticed your legs earlier... it's not convenient, I've been tossing around all day, and it's this weather again,Does it hurt?"

She asked in a low voice: "It should be more comfortable to apply a hot towel, I... I will help you, do you mind?"

Fu Chenhuan smiled slightly, the love in his eyes was clear and deep.

"The stump is hideous and will scare you."

Li Nuo hurriedly said: "No, no, no."

"It's ugly," he whispered.

"Don't say that," Li Nuo grabbed his cuff with both hands and shook it lightly, "Don't worry about me, I don't care, as long as you don't mind...let me see, then I'll get the hottowel?"

She didn't seem to know that when she acted like a baby, people would not know how to resist, and she agreed to all her requests without knowing it.

Fu Chenhuan nodded lightly, feeling that Li Nuo turned and went to the table.

As soon as she left, the temperature around her body cooled slightly.

He moved his lower lip slightly, and his pale fingers curled up unconsciously.

The heartbeat in the chest had lost its beat, and it hadn't stabilized for a while.

Just now, she was standing in a corner of the room, and he could only see a dim and petite ball of light in that corner. For a moment, he didn't know why a lot of panic lingered in his heart-the girl a few feet away should be watching him, but he was shocked.He felt like she was far away from him, and that distance made him untouchable.In the next moment, he called her name, and she agreed, and walked over to talk to him, and then suddenly came back to him from that far away.

Maybe it's because he has a deep heart disease and worries about gains and losses.Fu Chenhuan suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, and went to pick up the warm cloth towel in Li Nuo's hand: "Nono, give it to me."

"Huh? What's the matter, didn't you agree that I would help you?" Li Nuo was a little puzzled, and didn't hand over the cloth towel to him.

Fu Chenhuan was a little apologetic: "How can I make you do these things? Just now I was distracted for a while and responded indiscriminately."

Li Nuo gave him an angry look with a smile, "What's the matter? You have suffered so much, and it's all because of asking for medicine for me. I should take care of you."

She squatted obediently next to his left leg again, looking up at him, "Brother Chenhuan, don't think too much, I will never find it hard to take care of you, let alone despise you, really."

Fu Chenhuan's knuckle-boned hands slowly landed on the clothes beside his legs, and the fabric was pinched in his palms, and his eyes froze slightly.

Li Nuo poked his head to see his expression, as if he hesitated to speak.She blinked: "What's the matter?"

"Nono...I have something to tell you."

Seeing his serious tone, Li Nuo straightened up slightly: "What's the matter?"

Fu Chenhuan said slowly: "I never wanted to hide this matter. It's just that since you and I reunited, there has never been a good time for me to tell you. At this moment... I should make it clear first."

Li Nuo couldn't help feeling nervous when he heard this: "Oh... okay, what's the matter, so serious."

Hearing her nervousness, Fu Chenhuan subconsciously relaxed his eyebrows. He took this matter seriously because he took the girl in front of him too seriously.

I didn't want my tone to confuse her, "Don't be afraid, Nono, it's my business."

He paused slightly, "It's my background."

Li Nuo opened his eyes slightly, and immediately understood what he was going to say.

"Nono, there are many unimportant things in the past, but I can't hide this from you. In fact, I am not the real orphan of the Fu family. The real son of the Fu family passed away when he was eight years old. But his death was wronged,Need to cover up, the person who adopted him came up with a substitute."

"I..." The above paragraph was okay, but what he was going to say next was still hard for him to say, "I was young at that time, and because I looked like Mr. Fu, I was drugged, and I just acted like this in a daze.Fu Chenhuan. In fact, my status is much lower than that of ordinary lowly people."

Li Nuo has been looking up at him like this, his face is very calm, sometimes stagnant in detail, but overall it is quite peaceful.

However, her eyes slowly fell on his hand that was clenching the hem of his clothes.

——He used great strength in his hands, the veins on the back of his hands were bulging, the meridians were distinct, and even the joints were slightly white.

With a thought in his mind, Li Nuo couldn't help but put a pair of small hands on top of him, slowly enveloping his big palm.

Fu Chenhuan loosened his hands.

Almost instinctively, he turned over and gently held her thin, white and slender fingers.

Holding something in his palm, his fluttering heart temporarily stabilized, and he said slowly: "Nono, my real identity is just a box slave."

As soon as the words fell, he felt Li Nuo's fingers holding him instead, and the grip was even tighter.

Her sweet and gentle voice came: "So this is the matter. Seeing that you said it so solemnly, I thought it was a big matter."

"Brother Chenhuan, what are you worried about? You don't think that I will look down on you after knowing this, do you? Not to mention that I think falling into slavery is a punishment that should be abolished. I never thought they were low.It's also human."

She said, "I only look at you, you are you, it doesn't matter what you change, I will never dislike you."

Li Nuo's fingers slowly stroked the back of his broad and strong hand, brushing away all his uneasiness, "You said it so seriously just now, but it doesn't matter to me. Whether you are Fu's orphan or not,Or whether to be the regent or not, even if you are alone with nothing, then I will only protect you."

Fu Chenhuan suddenly closed his eyes, his Nono...

She always chooses this way.

I once said that I was lonely and desolate all my life, but I never thought that it was God who favored him so much and treated him so favorably.

Fu Chenhuan suppressed the blood in his throat, and his voice was hoarse: "Nono, brother Chen Huan doesn't need your protection."

He once had time to teach her in the future, so he taught her now: "Whether it is my life or dignity, it is not as important as a strand of your hair. I don't care about anything, as long as you are well."

Li Nuo looked at him.

It takes a lot of effort to bear his strong love.

She nodded: "Well, I know."

Looking at the cold cloth towel in his hand, Li Nuo put it in hot water and re-passed it, "So now that you've made it clear, don't worry, can you wrap your legs?"

Fu Chenhuan couldn't resist her tenderness any longer, slowly lifted the corner of his robe, and rolled up the trouser legs layer by layer.

Li Nuo knew that he was sensitive. Although he didn't mind exposing his left leg in front of her, but with his pride, it was still sad to think about it. She deliberately didn't set her eyes on it, but gently wrapped him with a hot clothleft leg.

"Brother Chenhuan, is this better?" She asked softly.

Fu Chenhuan gave a low hum, with a deep and indulgent voice, "Thank you Nono."

Li Nuo laughed: "Don't say thank you, as long as you don't feel any pain."

The wind at night blew past the window, making only a little rustling sound, and the coolness of early autumn could not penetrate the warm room.

Li Nuo looked at Fu Chenhuan, suddenly remembered something, and reminded: "By the way, brother Chen Huan, no one else knows what you said to me just now, right? No one must know. I'm not afraid of anything else,It’s just that people in the world have a deep prejudice against fallen box slaves, if others know about this and make a big fuss, I’m worried that it will hurt you.”

Fu Chenhuan said softly: "I only tell you."

Li Nuo smiled slightly.

Under the corners of the curved lips, there is a sigh in his heart, what a smart person he is, this is a matter of wealth and life, but he doesn't think it's his trick, but treats it as a gift of honesty, just like thisLeave it to her.

Li Nuo didn't realize that his heart was already very soft, and he rolled his eyes, "Well... Then you know that your name is not Fu Chenhuan, so do you like this name? If yes, why don't we choose one together now?? In the future, when there is no one in private, I can call you by your own name."

He has no elders to choose his characters, even if he chooses his own characters.

When a person comes to this world, he can't even have his own name.This is the most basic stuff.Although he can only do this in his life now, as himself, would he feel wronged?

This feeling always made Li Nuo a little uncomfortable.

The soft words of the girl next to her were a little silly, Fu Chenhuan couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips and burst out laughing.

Hearing her say that, he understood that her thoughts were always so pitiful and lovely.Such a small matter, in the final analysis, is nothing more than caring about his mood.

Fu Chenhuan said softly, "I used to have a name."

Li Nuo was a little surprised: "Really? What's the name?"

Fu Chenhuan pondered for a moment: "Xueche."

Xueche?

Li Nuozheng didn't understand, so Fu Chenhuan explained to her very gently, "The snow in the wind and snow is penetrating to the bone."

It turned out to be Xue Che.

Li Nuo nodded, just like there are so many common surnames in every era, she has stayed here for six months, and she knows in her heart that Xue is a relatively common surname here.

It's just... because of her industry experience, she couldn't help but think of Xue Xi.Recalling that his face is five points similar to Fu Chenhuan's.

It's hard not to think in those weird directions, but this idea is so outrageous and absurd that it was never mentioned in the original book.

Li Nuo hesitated, and asked tentatively, "How do you know this name? Did someone tell you?"

Fu Chenhuan shook his head, "I was drugged when I was young, and my memory before the age of seven was temporarily sealed. Later...by chance, the drug was overwhelmed, and I slowly remembered the past."

Li Nuo couldn't help asking: "Then besides the name, what else do you remember?"

She only consulted, forgetting that her hand was still firmly holding Fu Chenhuan's fingers, and she couldn't help but slowly grasp and rub as she became nervous, and the heat penetrated deeper into his skin.

Fu Chenhuan hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

"What do you remember?" Li Nuo's voice was very gentle.

Fu Chenhuan's heart was hot and sore, and Li Nuo would not fail to answer his questions.

I just thought too deeply, and said in a low voice, "Nono, I... I was abandoned by my biological mother after being branded a slave. The things I remember are dirty and horrible, and talking too much may scare you. Be good, don't ask.OK?"

Although it was such a discussion, Fu Chenhuan's expression was a little cautious, as if if Li Nuo insisted on asking, he would still tell the whole story.

Li Nuo's heart was shocked, she never thought that he would say such a thing - she couldn't bear just the beginning, how could she ask him to be self-inflicted.Immediately waved his hand: "I don't ask, I don't ask, I don't know what it is, don't think about it again, you are Fu Chenhuan, those things in the past are just a nightmare, and it's all over. Brother Chen Huan, don't worry about it."Sad."

Fu Chenhuan said softly: "It's all the past, I don't care about it for a long time."

"That's good, it's good that you don't feel sad," Li Nuo glanced out, it was time to rest, she turned her head, "Brother Chenhuan, it's getting late, your face looks a little bad because of the injury, earlyTake some rest."

Hearing this, Fu Chenhuan nodded and was about to stand up: "Okay, you..."

Li Nuo grabbed him: "Why? Where are you going?"

Fu Chenhuan coughed lowly as if to cover up: "I'll go outside."

How could Li Nuo agree, "That can't be done, you have injuries on your body, you have to lie down and have a good rest, it's deeper and dewy outside, that's not allowed."

Her voice was sweet and indulgent, with an air of uncompromising attitude.

Fu Chenhuan looked helpless, and said in a low voice: "Nono, I admit that I can't beat you."

Huh?Is he so easy to talk to today? She thought that the two of them would see each other for 300 rounds, and it was not certain that they would win or lose.

Li Nuo was about to praise him a few words, but at the next moment, he saw that his hand was like lightning, with two fingers together, lightly tapping on her neck with lightning speed.

...Acupoints again, isn't this cheating!

However, his hand skills are so good that people only feel a slight itching, and fatigue and groggy come up in an instant.She fell asleep without even uttering a syllable.

Fu Chenhuan took Li Nuo's limp body into his arms very gently with gestures.

He supported her thin shoulders with one hand, picked up her legs with the other, picked her up firmly and horizontally, and gently placed her on the bed like a fragile treasure.

If a gentleman kept his etiquette, he shouldn't have stayed by her side anymore.But right now she is asleep, so many restraints and rules in her heart can't withstand the huge and despicable greed.

He was really reluctant to leave.

Fu Chenhuan sat down slowly next to the bed, held Li Nuo's small hand, and pressed her soft fingertips to his lips.

Kissed and kissed silently and meticulously.

Everything was silent, and beside her, he felt an unprecedented peace of mind.

Worry arises out of love—although Tie Ting is calm, Fu Chenhuan, staring at the blurry, thin little ball of light in front of his eyes, instinctively thinks about the confusion that has been hanging in his heart these days.

These days, when everyone is alone for a moment of peace, he always thinks about those things silently.

——Which force was it that separated him and Nono for six years.

Fu Chenhuan closed his eyes, gently held Li Nuo's little hand, placed it on his heart, and silently calculated:

To be able to hide from him, the strength of the people behind him should not be underestimated. Nono is a weak girl, and she has absolutely no strength to contend with her. She couldn't have escaped by herself.

It must be that the other party deliberately let her out and appeared in front of him.

No matter how many goals the other party has, it is only to see that after so much effort and effort, what they want in the end is just his life.

In this world, people who want his life are like crucian carp crossing the river. He knows all the forces in the Xia Dynasty by heart, and no one can have such a big hand.Bei Mo...Although Bei Mo is unlikely, it is not up to him to make the decision, and it is unknown what mysterious forces may be dormant.

What's more, their game of chess doesn't look like it was rushed, and it didn't just start when he came out of Beijing to quell the chaos that year—maybe, he was already targeted when he was tempted by Nono.

If this is the case, which organization is it that wants to use Fu Chenhuan's hand to overthrow the previous Xia Dynasty?

He was heartbroken back then, but because of the small wooden box left by Nono, he did not die for her, and did not let the person behind him get what he wanted.But there are even stronger players among the strong, and the planners cheated the sky and changed positions, keeping Nono, the trump card that was sure to hit him, and kept it to this day.

Six years, why six years?Is it because the other party feels that the time has come to get rid of him, Fu Chenhuan?

Fu Chenhuan slowly opened his eyes.

The malice towards him by the people behind the scenes is not the most important thing.

The important thing is that depending on the mind of the layout person, it should be to use Nono to accomplish things.

Are they trying to repeat the same tricks, using Nono's death to make themselves miserable-if he loses it and regains it and loses it, he will definitely not survive.

Fu Chenhuan slowly stretched out his hand, and his slender fingers lovingly caressed Li Nuo's cheek.

No matter who it is, since the other party sent her here, he is not afraid to accept the challenge.

He will never let her become a bargaining chip, and will never lose her again.

No matter how heavy thoughts are in his heart, only looking at the blurry and soft scene in front of him, feeling her long and peaceful breath, the worry on Fu Chenhuan's brow is slowly removed, and he can't help but bend a light and joyful smile.

He leaned forward, and gave a light kiss, which was as gentle as a feather, on the forehead of the girl he loved.
