Chapter 65: Plague (6)
"Mr. Feng is right. Please don't be polite."
Han Ji nodded elegantly and said that compared with Feng Qinghan's superficial personalities, the two were comparable.
“Yin Yin!!”
Just when everyone was immersed in the peaceful atmosphere, a familiar and loud voice broke the friendliness of the group. Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw Zhou Yan walking quickly towards the pavilion with a serious expression. Yin Yin did not seem very happy to see Zhou Yan coming, and her relaxed expression became melancholy again.
"Greetings, Your Majesty."
"Your Majesty."
The maids, Han Ji, Xiuying and others all bowed to Zhou Yan.
"No thanks."
Zhou Yan arrived and took a look at the people and atmosphere in the pavilion, and then...
"Come with me."
"Let me go!"
Regardless of whether Yinyin was willing or not, Zhou Yan dragged Yinyin away. Seeing this, no one dared to stop him. After all, the other party was Zhou Yan. Even Feng Qinghan raised his eyebrows slightly at Zhou Yan's behavior. Han Ji could only watch them go away...
"I told you to let me go!!"
Far away from the pavilion, Yin Yin used all her strength to shake off Zhou Yan's hand. It would be more accurate to say that Zhou Yan let go of his hand on his own. After letting go, Yin Yin stroked her left hand that Zhou Yan was holding, and five finger marks clearly appeared on her fair skin.
"Feel sorry."
Looking at the fingerprints on Yin Yin's skin, even though Yin Yin endured the pain and didn't say anything, Zhou Yan knew it must be painful, so he apologized on his own initiative.
"What do you want from me?"
Although it hurts, Yin Yin is not so unsympathetic. Zhou Yan's behavior this time is obviously abnormal, and the reason for his abnormality is of course that something happened.
"I've already made arrangements. You'll be out of here in two days."
"Leave here?"
Yin Yin thought it was just hallucination, but Zhou Yan actually asked her to leave?
"Yes, there is no time. Before that, if there is somewhere you want to go, go quickly. I will try my best to satisfy you."
"What do you mean no time? What do you want to say? Why do you want me to leave suddenly?"
"I can't tell you the reason yet. Anyway, it will be very dangerous to stay. Until the situation stabilizes, you should go to a safe place first. I will pick you up afterwards."
After hearing what Zhou Yan said, Yin Yin began to feel that something was wrong. It seemed that things were not as simple as she imagined. Something must have happened to make Zhou Yan do this. What happened during the stalemate between her and Zhou Yan? Yin Yin herself had not heard anything. Could it be that she had neglected something because she was always thinking about other things?
"Am I the only one?"
" Let Xiuying stay with you. You always need someone to take care of you."
"What about Sister Han Ji?"
"...I will let her return to the capital."
According to Zhou Yan, it was like sending the person he cared about away from here. If nothing major had happened, how could Zhou Yan have made such an arrangement?
"And you?"
"I can't leave."
The more Yinyin listened, the more uneasy she felt . Zhou Yan stayed but sent her away, which meant that Zhou Yan had to stay and take charge of the situation. What could have happened that would make him take it so seriously? Yinyin was puzzled.
"Are you worried about me?"
Seeing Yin Yin in deep thought, Zhou Yan couldn't help but ask. Of course, he knew that this was unlikely, especially after the stalemate.
"…What if I say yes?"
Unexpected words came into Zhou Yan's ears. Was he dreaming? He just asked casually, but he got an unexpected response. Zhou Yan was stunned. He looked at Yin Yin. Her expression didn't seem like she was lying. It was rare to hear such unexpected words at this time. Zhou Yan 's heart was surging. He excitedly hugged Yin Yin into his arms...
“Yin Yin!!”
“Let me go—”
Was it excitement? Or was it touching? Zhou Yan couldn't suppress his inner joy and hugged Yin Yin tightly. Yin Yin was frightened by his action and wanted to push him away, but she couldn't do anything to Zhou Yan with her strength.
"No matter what, you're the only one who can't be in trouble."
Even though he was happy, Zhou Yan did not forget the current situation. He held Yin Yin with too much strength, so that Yin Yin could not even notice that Zhou Yan's body was trembling. The fear of losing...
"What on earth happened?"
Since she couldn't push Zhou Yan away, Yin Yin could only use her voice to relieve herself. As Yin Yin expected, Zhou Yan slowly let her go and slightly distanced himself from her. His expression was full of words, but he didn't say a word...
"Yan?"
It was the first time that Yinyin saw Zhou Yan like this, so she couldn't help but feel a little worried. Was she really worried about him? I don't know. At least Yinyin hasn't thought about it that much yet. She only cares about what is bothering Zhou Yan so much right now? She even forgot that she and Zhou Yan are still in a stalemate.
"Don't ask so many questions. I will definitely solve this matter, so you won't have to wait too long. I'll tell you then, okay?"
Even though Zhou Yan said that, Yin Yin still wanted to know, but when she saw Zhou Yan's expression, she couldn't ask any more questions.
"……I see."
In order to appease Zhou Yan, Yin Yin agreed verbally, but that did not mean she gave up her desire to know and understand.
"Yin Yin——"
He gently called Yin Yin's name and held her in his arms again. This time he didn't want to use as much force as before. He only used enough strength to hold Yin Yin with both hands. In his arms, Yin Yin couldn't see Zhou Yan's expression, but she was sure that something big would happen in the next few days.
Located in a remote village near [Weicheng], the first infected village is already dead silent, and other villages that have been infected one after another are also filled with the breath of death. Soldiers guarding the first line of defense in the blockade area have clashed with villagers who want to escape. A chaotic battle between humans and the plague is about to break out...
