If you don’t cherish the love we wear quickly, why are you crying if you change your mind?

Ares quickly cleared his mind of the evil thoughts, otherwise he would be no different from a dragon.

He looked at the girl in front of him and said seriously, "I'm sorry, Miaomiao, you go down first."

Before Jiang Miao retreated, he did not forget to ask him, "How are you doing?"

Ares's face froze, and fearing that she would continue to ask, he could only nod in a low voice, "Yeah."

Jiang Miao raised the corners of her lips, and she looked happy. She raised her chin towards Ares.

"Then go down, I need to rest."

Ares suddenly got out of bed and left the bedroom as if escaping.

Jiang Miao looked at his leaving back and muttered quietly, "Silly knight."

Ares, who went to the yard to fetch water for a shower, heard it!

Seeing through the little mischief beneath the girl's innocent appearance, he took a deep breath, picked up a bucket of cold water and poured it over her head.

……

Jiang Miao soon felt that Ares' attitude towards her had changed. She thought about it and decided that this man must not communicate with her anymore.

For example, they had to replenish their supplies, especially water, in Deepwood Motte before setting off, because they were about to cross a wasteland, which was the shortest route to the Lonely Mountain.

Ares didn't say anything else. If it were in the past, he might have told them what was in the Dothraki Desert and what they should be careful about.

Before setting off, Jiang Miao put on a sun hat and sat in the front room of the carriage.

As soon as he sat down, Ares motioned to her, "The desert is windy and sandy, go inside."

Jiang Miao took a look and realized that he would not cling to her like before, so he took off his hat and sat in the carriage.

She guessed Ares must be hiding from her.

When the system saw the smile on Jiang Miao's lips, it asked in confusion.

[Host, how can you still laugh? ]

Jiang Miao tilted his head, took out a bag of popcorn bought from a farmer in Deepwood Castle from his backpack, and began to eat it slowly.

"Hide if you can, but it's better to hide for a long time."

The longer some people suppress their emotions, the harder it is for them to control themselves when they explode.

Ares was driving the carriage in front, looking at the yellow earth scorched by the sun, the rugged rocks, and the withered grass. His mind involuntarily imagined the girl being grabbed by his tail, or more strictly speaking, the dragon's tail, around her waist.

To the extent that now, whenever he sees Lannister, no, it should be said that Jiang Miao, her oriental name, many beautiful images will emerge in his mind when he sees her.

That dream was too real, he didn't think it was a dream. It was rumored in the Azeri Empire that the Targaryen family had true dragon blood. Could it be that he was originally an evil dragon and just temporarily disguised himself as a human? .

In the carriage, Jiang Miao looked out from the window. This was the first time she saw a desert in another world.

When they arrived at the camping site, she quickly brought out her tent and began to set it up with great enthusiasm.

Ares lit a fire and cooked dinner. Seeing the girl struggling to set up the tent, he frowned slightly and said, "It's very windy and sandy here. You should sleep in the carriage."

Jiang Miao glanced at him and said, "No, I want to fall asleep under the stars while counting them."

Ares put down his work and went over to help Jiang Miao set up the tent. Jiang Miao said, "Thank you."

She grilled lamb chops in front of the campfire, and she made sure they were cooked until they were crispy and well-cooked.

Ares must be made aware that she also has an opinion about being treated coldly!

Ares set up the tent and walked over. Seeing the fragrant lamb chops, he looked at Jiang Miao, seeming to want to say something but stopped himself.

Jiang Miao served the lamb chops and pushed them in front of Ares, "Eat breakfast and go to bed."

She took the tray and went to the other side to eat, with no intention of talking.

Who doesn't know how to ignore and play hard to get?

Rather than face the cold face of the upright knight, she would rather eat baked potatoes with cheese.

She had a beautiful dream, but the journey was too difficult. They walked in the wilderness for three days and still hadn't gotten out.

The desire to take a bath and see green became stronger and stronger.

The water they brought was only enough for drinking and simple washing, but not for bathing.

Ares noticed the girl's depressed mood. He drove the horse in front of her, pursed his lips and frowned.

"There is a simple inn in the wilderness. We can rest there. We have to hurry up."

Jiang Miao heard his voice in the carriage and nodded, "Okay, let's eat bread in the carriage at noon."

It was so hot that she didn't want to go downstairs to get something to eat. She really had no appetite.

Around the afternoon, when the sun was about to set, the carriage finally stopped.

Jiang Miao felt stuffy in the carriage and felt dizzy as he swayed all the way.

She opened the car door, wearing a hood, and when she saw Ares' focused amber eyes through the veil, she suddenly wanted to throw away all the playing hard to get and didn't want to pretend anymore.

It's better to just be honest and let the relationship grow over time. Why play tricks on this upright knight?

Anyway, she has plenty of opportunities along the way, so there is no need to rush to give him a push.

Jiang Miao, who was dizzy from the heat, jumped out of the carriage by the door, but he almost fell to the ground.

Ares subconsciously held her arm, holding it tightly, and did not let go until Jiang Miao stood firm.

Jiang Miao looked up at him. The man pursed his lips and looked a little angry?

Ares is angry? The upright and heroic Paladin is angry?

I really wonder if he is dissatisfied with the burnt lamb chops she fed him these days.

Their eyes met, Jiang Miao broke the silence, his gaze fell on his bony fingers, "What's wrong?"

Ares frowned and said in a low voice, "Be careful."

"Why didn't you ask me to help you down if you were dizzy?"

"Weren't you always good at asking me for help?"

Jiang Miao felt that he was really awesome, as he actually heard some resentment in the knight's words.

Could it be that he is blaming me for ignoring him?

She is just being polite. Since you are being cold to me, isn't it normal for me to play hard to get?

Jiang Miao deliberately shook off his hand and said, "Just getting off the car."

Ares frowned, feeling the alienation and coldness in the girl's eyes, for the first time he truly felt his heart being stabbed.

Jiang Miao had been so warm and smiling to him before, but now...

The wind from the wilderness brought out sand and dust. Jiang Miao pulled out a thin gauze scarf to protect her neck and cheeks.

Seeing the sad look on Ares' face, she felt an inexplicable pain in her heart.

Jiang Miao glanced in the direction of the post station, raised his eyes to look at Ares, and asked in a low voice, "Is that the post station you mentioned?"

It’s too simple, but at least you can see some greenery.

She took another step closer and took his arm, "Is there a place to bathe inside?"

Ares froze when she held his arm. He frowned slightly, "Don't do this. People will see you."

"I'm tired, can't you help me?" Jiang Miao looked up at him slightly, and then leaned closer to him, "Just now you asked me for help when I was in trouble."

Ares felt his arm touch something soft, and his ears immediately felt hot, "Don't get close to me."

He spoke in commanding words, but to Jiang Miao they sounded without any deterrent effect.

How can an upright paladin defeat a hateful witch?
