Ye Peitian looked at her for a moment then turned his head. His slightly curled forehead drooped, covering his eyebrows and eyes.
He supported her, who was propped on his back, stepped on his long legs, and continued on silently.
“Xiao Ye…do you like me?” Chu Qianxun’s voice suddenly came from behind.
Ye Peitian’s footsteps staggered, and a pair of ears were instantly flushed, and the conspicuous flushing red spread along his cheeks and neck at a speed visible to the naked eye.
He pressed his lips tightly without saying a word, and speeded up his steps without saying a word, and walked forward.
Chu Qianxun laid on his back, but she could even clearly hear his heartbeat.
The drum-beating sound was louder than ever, almost hitting her heart from inside the man’s body.
She was caught off guard.
In such an era, death and parting were so common that people were used to not giving too deep feelings easily. A night of revelry could better meet the physiological and psychological needs of humans in this special period.
But Chu Qianxun thought that Ye Peitian didn’t want this kind of feeling. She faintly felt that he was a little different to her, but her heart was filled with the urgency of the apocalypse, and she subconsciously avoided that question.
After all, he was a half demon. Chu Qianxun thought in her heart, but quickly denied that idea.
No, Peitian was not a half demon. He was a weak-hearted man and a trusted partner.
In fact, in every battle, Ye Peitian was the teammate with the most tacit understanding, and she was even used to fighting with Ye Peitian by her side.
Got used to every meal he cooked carefully.
Got used to his every effort to defend herself in battle.
Got used to all the care he provided.
He was a man who had been giving silently, but she was enjoying everything for granted, while ignoring his feelings.
The sky gradually darkened.
Ye Peitian walked silently with Chu Qianxun on his back, until she thought that he would not respond to her question.
Chu Qianxun removed her head from Ye Peitian’s shoulder in surprise, looking at the side face of the person whose head was drooping and whose expression was mostly covered by his hair.
“I like you, but please take this as my personal business.” The man said softly, “If you have the same feelings for me, I will be extremely happy. But if you don’t, then we will still be the same as before.”
Chu Qianxun was silent. She had to admit that her always firm heart was upset at this moment.
When it was getting dark, they returned to the camp where they were stationed the previous night.
Someone lit a campfire and cooked in a pot.
Ye Peitian spread the sleeping bag and placed Chu Qianxun on it. After receiving the medicine, her severely injured arm was held up to get bandaged.
Chu Qianxun sat, staring at the busy man in front of her with scorching eyes.
Since he said that, Qianxun hasn’t spoken again. Ye Peitian was sad for a while, and he barely restrained himself from showing a strange expression.
It would be nice if he didn’t admit it. His heart was sour, at least Qianxun could treat him as before.
He bandaged Chu Qianxun’s injured arm and prepared to stand up, “Dinner is ready, I’ll bring you some.”
An arm with a white bandage caught him by the collar and pulled him back.
“Do you want to secretly add food to my bowl again?” The eyes staring at him were full of stars.
“I…” Ye Peitian was taken by the starlight.
“Don’t hurt yourself like that, we can change the way,” the woman bit her lip and smiled.
When slender fingers reached into the hair on the back of his head and pressed his head down, a pair of soft lips captured his heart before his brain could react.
Ye Peitian almost lost himself at that moment.
He didn’t know how the moist touch covered himself, pried himself open, invaded himself, confused everything about him, and slipped away slyly like a fish.
When he recovered from the trembling, the person in front of him had already let go of him.
Those bright eyes smiled in the night, and she stretched out the tip of her tongue and licked his lips.
