Stay with me, I rely on the childbearing system to get pregnant and dote on me alone

Before Chajiu could respond, there was a commotion outside the carriage.

Shen Suyuan quickly opened a corner of the door curtain to check. His men disguised as servants actually started fighting with the officers and soldiers guarding the city.

Shen Qi waved his sword to resist, turned around and shouted to the people in the carriage: "Master! Our identity has been exposed, let's leave quickly!"

It turned out that when they were at Lianhua Temple, there were informants from Hengzhou among the pilgrims. They saw Shen Suyuan and Cha Jiu going to Hengzhou together, so they hurried back to report the news.

Now Hengzhou sent officers and soldiers to stop them from leaving the city.

Shen Suyuan decisively drew his sword, cut off the rope between the horse and the carriage, and mounted the horse with Cha Jiu in his arms.

"Hold it." He lowered his head and reminded, swinging the back of the knife towards the horse's butt.

Cha Jiu quickly hugged his strong waist obediently.

With a neigh, the horse's hooves were raised and it galloped into the forest.

Seeing the two men running further and further away, Hengzhou's pursuers didn't care whether they were captured alive or dead, and directly ordered them to fire arrows.

Shen Suyuan used the visual obstruction of the mountain forest to avoid many arrows, but in the end one of them hit the horse's leg.

The horse screamed in pain and fell to its knees. Shen Suyuan rolled down the hillside next to him while holding Cha Jiu in his arms.

The hillside is full of gravel, which hurts your skin when scraped.

As the world was spinning, Chajiu subconsciously buried Shen Suyuan's head into the soft crook of his neck and stretched out his hands to protect the back of his head.

Shen Suyuan was stunned for less than half a breath, and then he quickly turned to protect her in his arms, pulling his cloak to wrap the vulnerable parts of their bodies to avoid fatal injuries.

After rolling for an unknown amount of time, the two finally stopped at the bottom of the mountain.

"Are you okay?" Shen Suyuan quickly opened his cloak and looked at the person in his arms.

Chajiu raised her head from his chest, shook her dizzy head, and said nonchalantly: "I'm fine."

But when Shen Suyuan raised her arms and took a look, they were covered with blood marks from the gravel, which was shocking to see.

How can this be all right?

But now that the situation was urgent, Shen Suyuan didn't say anything. He picked up Cha Jiu and walked forward in a direction.

Chajiu put her arms lightly on his shoulders and whispered: "It's not my legs or feet that are injured. I can walk."

"Stop talking." Shen Suyuan's lips were cold and hard, seeming a little irritated.

It's not that he finds Cha Jiu troublesome.

Rather, he regretted that his trip to Hengzhou was not well planned and Cha Jiu was injured due to impulsiveness.

Chajiu stopped talking and leaned against his chest obediently.

The two of them walked for an hour without leaving the forest. They only saw a small stream nearby.

Shen Suyuan's mouth felt dry after walking, so he placed the tea cup on a stone by the stream and filled a handful of water with his hand.

But not for myself.

He handed it to Cha Jiu.

"There is splashing water on the shore. Don't get your shoes and socks wet by going there." Shen Suyuan said.

Cha Jiu didn't expect that his thoughts were so delicate.

After hesitating for a moment, she lowered her head and drank the water from Shen Suyuan's hand.

Although she was careful, her soft lips still touched Shen Suyuan's palm from time to time, and her straight nose touched his fingertips bit by bit.

Itchy.

...and unbearable.

It wasn't until Cha Jiu drank enough that this seemingly seductive torture ended.

Shen Suyuan drank the remaining water in his hand.

He pretended not to see Chajiu's surprise, pointed to a cave not far away and said, "It's getting dark soon. Let's stay in this cave for the night and find a way out tomorrow morning."

There are hundreds of forked roads in this mountain forest, and Hengzhou's pursuers will not be able to find them for a while.

Chajiu nodded and followed him to the cave.

……

At night, Shen Suyuan lit a fire in the cave in order to avoid wild beasts.

He took off his cloak, spread it on the flat boulder, and made a simple bed for Cha Jiu.

And he sat by the fire, preparing to guard the firewood all night long to prevent it from going out.

Chajiu turned over in the soft cloak, and something fell out of his arms, falling to the ground with a crisp cracking sound.

When she reached out to pick it up, Shen Suyuan had already strode over and picked it up for her.

It turned out to be the peace jade ring that Mrs. Jiang had given her during the day.

The jade ring was smashed into several pieces, and some of the pieces rolled down to unknown places, just like the irreparable relationship between her and the Jiang family.

Cha Jiu slowly sat up.

Shen Suyuan put the pieces of jade pendants in his palms and looked at her with a sneer: "You still have these worthless things with you, don't you feel shameful...Why are you crying?"

The light brought by the fire was a little dim, and the surrounding mountain walls reflected Chajiu's silent shadow. The light and shadow blurred her expression, so Shen Suyuan didn't notice the tears hanging on her long eyelashes.

She was so silent even when she cried.

Shen Suyuan's heart suddenly softened.

"Okay, don't cry." He walked over and couldn't help but stretched out his fingertips to wipe away the tears hanging on her face.

"It's just a broken jade ring, what's so rare about it?"

Just like the Jiang family, they have nothing to worry about.

Shen Suyuan thought.

When he was in Hengzhou, when he saw Cha Jiu being so calm and calm, he thought she really didn't care.

But now it seems that even a Buddhist girl who is not stained by the mortal world still has feelings.

Shen Suyuan was not good at comforting people. After thinking about it, he only thought of taking off the jade pendant with dragon pattern from his waist and putting it in Cha Jiu's hand.

"This is the evil-repelling jade pendant I have worn since I was a child. It is carved with thousand-year-old spiritual jade, and it was consecrated by an eminent monk. This is not the kind of thing that can be obtained by worshiping in a temple for two months."

"Now it's for you, be happy."

Chajiu held the dragon-patterned jade pendant in his hand, lowered his eyes and said forbearingly: "Donor Shen, can you... turn around?"

Shen Suyuan turned around.

Through the firelight reflected on the figure on the mountain wall, he saw Cha Jiu slowly put her forehead on his back and cried softly.

Her thin and stubborn shoulders twitched slightly, so pitiful.

Chajiu's choked voice sounded like an aggrieved kitten: "I lied."

Shen Suyuan knew that she was talking about what she said on the carriage, denying that she was sad to sever ties with the Jiang family.

She is sad.

And she was terrified and guilty that she had lied.

Shen Suyuan listened to her cry. Although he was calm on the surface, his heart felt like it was being grasped by a big invisible hand, with a dull pain.

"Jiang Yu." He turned around, took Cha Jiu into his arms, patted her head and comforted her, "Just tell a lie."

"It doesn't matter, I will hide it from Buddha for you."

His tone was soft but firm.
