Chang’an Peasant Girl

   Chapter 1069 She already knew...

   "The door is not bolted."

   The cold and arrogant words made Meng Zhuqing freeze instantly.

she,

   knew he was coming.

she,

   seems to be waiting for him.

  Meng Zhuqing tried his best to calm down before raising his hand and gently trying to push the door in front of him. Then, he found that the door was not fastened from the inside.

This…

   Looking at the door that he had already pushed open a little, Meng Zhuqing hesitated. Finally, he pushed the door a little further and walked in slowly.

  Unconsciously, he closed the door with his backhand.

  Although there are no oil lamps in the room, because the moon is bright tonight and the moonlight spills in, the room can still be seen clearly.

   Meng Zhuqing hesitated again, but walked towards Tuobayao.

   Tuobayao was lying on the bed, her beautiful eyes were closed, and her expression was normal, as if she had fallen asleep, but Meng Zhuqing knew that she was actually awake. She just spoke to him.

   "You..." Standing beside the bed, looking at the person lying on the bed, Meng Zhuqing didn't know what to say.

   Should he ask how she knew he was coming?

   Tuobayao was still lying there quietly, eyes closed, motionless. The moonlight sprinkled on her face, making her cold and arrogant.

  Meng Zhuqing stopped talking and just stood by the bed quietly, but after standing for a while, he still brought a stool over and sat beside the bed, still looking at the person on the bed.

It was the first time that    was able to guard her so close.

   After a long time, seeing that Tuobayao still didn't speak, and was still sleeping quietly, Meng Zhuqing really thought that Tuobayao had fallen asleep in this silence.

   Even if he knew clearly in his heart that he was deceiving himself.

   But, involuntarily, he still dared, raised his hand, and stretched it towards her face. He had never touched her face, and at this moment, he wanted to touch it.

   But when his hand was about to touch her face, he was timid and wanted to take it back.

   But someone didn't let him take it back and grabbed his hand tightly.

   Meng Zhuqing suffocated for a moment, and his whole body was stiff again. He wanted to take back the hand that Tuobayao had grabbed, but he was reluctant to take it back.

   Tuobayao still had her beautiful eyes closed, except that she grabbed Meng Zhuqing's with one hand, her expression and posture hardly changed.

   "The county master..." Although Meng Zhuqing didn't pull his hand back, Meng Zhuqing opened his mouth, feeling really complicated and uneasy.

Tuobayao still didn't speak, but the hand that held Meng Zhuqing was getting tighter and tighter, and even the corners of her closed beautiful eyes were slowly dripping tears. Under the moonlight, the tears were not only particularly crystal clear, but also special. The cold, especially heart-wrenching.

   Meng Zhuqing's heart clenched instantly, and almost instantly, his grasped hand held hers, and asked with a trembling voice, "When did you know?"

  Finally, Tuobayao spoke, and said slowly: "When you were in Nan Mi, you were in a coma and called my name."

  At the beginning, in Nan Mi, he fell into a coma because he contracted the plague. In a coma, he kept muttering her name. At that time, she knew that he liked her.

   But, at that time, she thought her body was unclean and unworthy, so she pretended not to know.

   Meng Zhuqing looked at the man with his eyes still closed, listening to the man's words, his heart was twisted like a knife, and he couldn't help but clench the man's hand tightly.
