When he finally looked up, she asked softly, "Why are you so strange today?"

At this moment her voice was no longer as cold as usual, but became soft, sweet and full of attraction.

"Xiaoxue, I want to sleep with you tonight."

Jiang Xue smiled and said, "Remember last time in Tianhe, I always wanted to climb into your bed?

I didn't expect that it would be your turn to take the initiative this time. However, I will not agree to let you experience the same sense of loss I felt back then tonight."

"That was because I was too stupid at the time. I always thought you liked Lan Feng, so I missed a lot of opportunities."

Xiao Zhan pinched her nose gently: "Now you can't refuse me anymore, let's make up for the lost time."

Jiang Xue smiled and replied: "It seems that you can always find reasons to convince me."

Xiao Zhan picked her up horizontally, placed her carefully on the bed, helped her take off her shoes, then got into bed and held her in his arms.

"Xiaoxue, go to sleep."

He thought to himself that after a day of running around, although this place was simple, he just hoped that she could sleep peacefully in his arms and not wake up as easily as before.

Jiang Xue snuggled up to him even tighter: "Indeed, Yun Che's embrace is the most comfortable."

This warm feeling made her reluctant to let go.

As the night deepened, Jiang Xue soon fell asleep in his arms.

Looking at her calm face, he placed a gentle kiss on her forehead.

"Xiaoxue, I will always be with you."

The next morning, after they woke up, Jiang Xue washed up and sat in front of the mirror to get her hair done.

Xiao Zhan suddenly took the comb from her hand: "Let me help you."

Jiang Xue looked back at him, her eyes full of doubt: "Can you comb your hair?"

She remembered that once when she was a child, she played too much and her hair became a mess. She insisted on him to help her fix it, but it got worse and worse. In the end, she got scolded. It was not until he gave her a few storybooks that he coaxed her into compliance.

Xiao Zhan smiled and said, "Let me try."

To Jiang Xue's surprise, this time Xiao Zhan not only did not mess things up, but also combed her hair into a beautiful bun.

It turned out that after that incident, Xiao Zhan secretly learned how to comb her hair to prevent her from being blamed again.

"Yun Che, is there anything else you don't know?"

Xiao Zhan leaned close to her ear and whispered, "It's a pity that you don't usually wear makeup, otherwise I could draw your eyebrows for you."

"Then I will ask Fudong to invite Meidai back today so that you can help me draw my eyebrows."

"That's a good idea."

They had just packed their things and were about to go out when they met Lan Feng.

Lan Feng's eyes revealed a hint of curiosity: "Xiao Zhan, are you here to treat me to breakfast as well? It's really early."

"Not early. I stayed here last night."

Hearing this, Lan Feng's face instantly became serious.

He saluted to Jiang Xue and said, "Your Highness, I have something important to discuss with Xiao Zhan in private."

Without waiting for Jiang Xue to respond, Xiao Zhan continued, "Since General Lan has something to say, I'm all ears."

Then he turned to Jiang Xue and smiled gently: "Xiaoxue, go have breakfast first."

Jiang Xue knew exactly what Lan Feng wanted to say, but she believed that Xiao Zhan would not be in danger, so she nodded in agreement: "Okay."

When her back disappeared, Lan Feng stared at Xiao Zhan, trying to decipher his thoughts, but Xiao Zhan's expression was as calm as water and unpredictable.

"General Lan, there are only two of us now, what do you want to say?"

"Xiao Zhan, you know that Xiaoxue's body is not easy to have another child, shouldn't you pay more attention to her body?"

"Of course I pay attention to her body." Xiao Zhan answered briefly.

Lan Feng walked forward angrily and grabbed his neck: "Then shouldn't you be on the road...?"

Xiao Zhan smiled contemptuously: "Lan Feng, in what capacity are you questioning me now? Love rival?

But you and I are both married now, you have no right to interfere with us. Colleague? My official position is higher than yours, you have no right to interfere with me. "

Xiao Zhan paused, his eyes firm and gentle, and replied: "If you are really willing to care about her as a brother, then I can tell you frankly. I am more worried about Xiaoxue's health than anyone else."

He paused for a moment, as if he was organizing his next words to make them more precise.

"What I seek is not the worldly benefits or power. What I want is her happiness and her well-being.

I hope she can go back to that carefree age and enjoy every moment of her life. I hope every day of her future will be filled with laughter and sunshine.”

Xiao Zhan's eyes revealed deep love and determination:

“My feelings for Xiaoxue started a long time ago, and they are much deeper and started much earlier than you can imagine.

Everything I do is so that she can be free to pursue her dreams while being surrounded by love.”

“Now her mind is all on national affairs. For her, the stability of the dynasty is far more important than personal feelings.

Therefore, until then, I will always be by her side, supporting her, protecting her, and going through every difficult journey."

After saying that, he turned and left, leaving Lan Feng standing there in silence.

Jiang Xue saw Xiao Zhan coming back, and personally served him a bowl of hot porridge, saying softly: "I am not worried about your safety in front of him, because he knows that you are an important person to me and will never hurt you."

She continued, "On the contrary, Lan Feng has always been outspoken. He has always been dissatisfied with the time you and I have spent at the border, and he might say something that would embarrass you."

Xiao Zhan was a little disappointed: "So, in your heart, he is closer to you than me?"

"How could you think that?"

Jiang Xue sighed: "How can we be compared?"

"So how are we different?"

Jiang Xue looked at Xiao Zhan with deep affection in her eyes: "Lan Feng and I have experienced the ups and downs of life and death together on the battlefield. This friendship makes me fearless of life and death.

But when you are by my side, I begin to cherish life and long to spend the rest of my life with you."

"So, Lan Feng makes you forget about life and death, but I make you afraid of losing your life. That's the difference."

Xiao Zhan held her hand tightly: "Xiaoxue, I understand.

Your selfless devotion to him is motivated by loyalty and friendship, while your cherishing of me is motivated by love, which speaks volumes.”

Jiang Xue smiled and picked up a piece of vegetarian dumpling for him: "I hope you really understand. If you are still jealous in the future, I will ignore you."

Xiao Zhan took a bite of the vegetarian dumplings and found them delicious.

Three days later, as night fell, they decided to change their itinerary. Lan Feng personally saw them off for several miles and said:

"***, Brother Zhan, please be careful on the road."

Jiang Xue comforted him, "Lan Feng, don't worry about me. The safety of the north is in your hands."

Lan Feng answered firmly: "As long as I am alive, the border will be safe."

Then he turned to Xiao Zhan and said, "Brother Zhan, please protect the princess."

"You don't need to tell me, I will do the same."
