Chapter 51 Appeal in the Clear Rain (part 2)
Chu Yan’s voice didn’t stop, even at this point, he wasn’t afraid of ruining everything, “This Master will cherish and take care of you for a lifetime, it’s natural for a husband to love his wife, so you must not refuse. Otherwise, you are making this Master ashamed, this Master can’t even do what’s right.”
“Master…Master!” Mo Ren finally interrupted the palace master in panic, he was rarely so flustered, his eyes were scattered like fragments, “Master, you… you…”
What are you saying?
He almost blurted out, do you know what you are saying - who are you saying it to?
Chu Yan calmly replied. “Yes, this Master is fond of you.”
Boom… A thunderous sound rang in his ears.
Mo Ren was momentarily stunned, he couldn’t even tell if it was his own illusion, or if there was really thunder in the distance. He stared blankly at Chu Yan, his lips trembling violently, and then his whole body began to tremble, like a withered grass in the pouring cold rain.
Chu Yan bent down. He kissed the trembling lips in front of him again.
This time it was very gentle, like a dragonfly skimming the water.
But Mo Ren trembled even more. Gradually, as he stared into Chu Yan’s eyes, a few strands of pleading seemed to emerge, like a cornered beast.
Wrong, wrong, how could things turn out like this?
To be the only one in the world, to be intimate with the master, to be loved by the master for a lifetime, to be cherished by the master, to be honored as the master’s wife…
He had never thought that it would be like this! The master would actually have such thoughts…!?
“This sentence, this Master thought he had no face to say.”
Chu Yan gave a bitter smile, affectionately rubbed Mo Ren’s cheek, and sighed, “But this Master really…..really likes you so much that he can’t help it. You can think of this Master as shameless.”
At this moment, a kind of unprecedented huge panic hit him in an instant.
Mo Ren thought blankly.
——How is he worthy? How can he?
He… He has been fighting in the Dark Hall since he was a child, and the chronic diseases and hidden injuries he has suffered are countless. This broken body, while it is still fresh in his youth, is not worth playing with for a hundred years. Moreover, he has been honed for two lifetimes, and even his state of mind is as deep as a dead well, no longer the true youthful willfulness of a teenager. As for the sweet mouth and exquisite heart that can make the Master happy, he doesn’t have it either, so how can he receive the Master’s deep affection for a hundred years?
How noble and unique his Master is, he should enjoy the treasures and jade that have been passed down through the ages, how can he hold a cold and hard sword with scars everywhere for a lifetime!?
“No…” In a daze, a weak voice had already squeezed out of his throat.
As soon as the word came out, Mo Ren suddenly woke up. He missed a beat in his heart, and realized what he had said after the fact.
But it was too late, he heard Chu Yan sigh.
“Never mind.”
The palace master rubbed his hair and smiled, “If you don’t want to, forget it. Then… as agreed, we will still be master and servant.”
A force came from his arm, Mo Ren staggered, he was helped up from the ground by Chu Yan.
Unknowingly, the heavy rain gradually stopped. The dark clouds were blown away a bit, the summer rain came quickly and went quickly.
Chu Yan said, “Let’s go, hurry back to the inn to change clothes, what if you freeze?”
Mo Ren was speechless for a moment, his heart was like being twisted by a knife.
He… he disappointed the Master…
