Night Party (1)
Xie Xuanchen was caught off guard when Mu Mingtang hugged him. Her soft breath surrounded him making his heartbeat so fast. Someone had only hugged him when he was an infant to breastfeed him. Xie Xuanchen stiffened for a while and hugged Mu Mingtang back. Even so, he didnât dare to put his hand on her waist, only dared to pat Mu Mingtangâs back like a child.
âOkay, Iâm fine.â After Xie Xuanchen finished speaking, he felt that his words were too rigid. He knew that Mu Mingtang was doing this for his own good.
While Xie Xuanchen was in Mu Mingtangâs embrace, he felt that he was too cold, so when he was about to say something, Mu Mingtang had already let go, sat on the bed and looked at him with a smile: âYou also said, no matter what happens in the future, people always have to eat and sleep. Itâs getting late, so letâs go to bed.â
Xie Xuanchen didnât know whether he was relieved or regretful, he could only nod his head seriously and said, âOkay.â
Mu Mingtang also felt that she was too abrupt now, and her face turned bright red. She was depressed about what might have happened to Xie Xuanchen, she hugged him without thinking, and now she was embarrassed. She didnât even dare to look at Xie Xuanchen, and she quickly lifted the quilt and wrapped herself like a mummy.
When she didnât hear any movement, she could not help looking at Xie Xuanchen, and found that he was still in the same place. She exposed a crack from the quilt and asked in a loud voice. âWhy are you still not sleeping?â
Xie Xuanchen lifted the curtain and walked out: âI still have some things to do, you go to sleep first.â
Then he walked quickly to the window, ignoring the possibility of disturbing the people outside, and forced the window to open wide. The night wind immediately swept in, swaying frantically by blowing the hanging spikes in front of the window.
Xie Xuanchen calmed down for a long time. He felt that this night was too difficult for him. If it hadnât happened to him, he wouldnât have believed that there was a man in the world who was so restless.
He rested his fingers on the window sill and unknowingly pinched the wooden frame. His mind was in a mess just now, but now that the wind blows, Xie Xuanchen felt that those frivolous and restless thoughts calmed down little by little.
The most important thing for a person is to know who he is and what he is doing. He is responsible for all his actions, and now he canât even see his own way, what qualifications does he have to think about those sensual things?
Xie Xuanchen finally calmed down, and at this time, he was glad that he didnât do anything just now.
He has to wait.
Originally Xie Xuanchen had given up, but now he suddenly has a faint hope. Itâs just waiting and dormant, which is much better than before.
Xie Xuanchen couldnât help thinking of the deployment list of the DPRK in his mind. Xie Rui has been dealing with the DPRK members for the past two years, so the DPRK and China troops must have been completely replaced by now. However, the civil servants relied on the imperial examination to change their positions, but the military generals had no way to do that. So the military generals in higher positions outside the capital must still be the same.
Xie Rui also knew about this, so after he came to power, he had given more priority to improve literature and suppressed military affairs. So this was Xie Xuanchenâs chance. He and those military generals had fought for the country for so long, and his old mates would not backstab him.
