Everyone thought he was dying

On this day, the two of them, like a pair of the most ordinary lovers, went to eat the ravioli that was said to be the best and the most plentiful in this small border town, and went to visit the most bustling street in the city.

The alleys in the border towns are naturally far less prosperous than the capital city, but to Ji Chen and Ye Yunze, they are also very interesting.

When they were in the capital, they always had to keep their identities in mind, and they had to think carefully about every word and deed. How could it compare to being so relaxed now?

Ji Chen glanced at Ye Yunze who was walking beside him, a spring-like smile bloomed on his lips, and with the cover of his wide cuffs, he held Ye Yunze's hand.There are thin calluses in Ye Yunze's big dry hands, which make people feel very warm and at ease when touched.

With Ye Yunze by his side, even if he just did a simple thing, Ji Chen would feel very happy, as sweet as drinking honey.Ji Chen never asked for anything grandiose, but only hoped that the countless years in the future could be like this moment, holding Ye Yunze's hand, and walking through it in a smooth way.

"Selling candied haws! Fresh and delicious candied haws! One penny for one string, two pennies for three strings!"

In the alley, the vendors are always busy.With their yelling, the alley became more lively and lively.

Ji Chen made a face at Ye Yunze, revealing a bit of rebelliousness and naughtiness in his youth: "Do you want to try these folk food? There are no old men who control the world here. Let's experience an ordinary meal today. Let the common people have fun!"

Ye Yunze didn't pay much attention to eating, so seeing Ji Chen's excited expression, he nodded.

Not long after, Ji Chen and Ye Yunze had all kinds of food in their hands.

Ji Chen didn't care so much, and immediately started to eat happily, until his cheeks on both sides swelled up.After all, Ye Yunze was educated by a wealthy family, and it has become an instinct to pay attention to appearance in front of others. Therefore, looking at the food in his hands, he found it difficult.

Seeing Ye Yunze's hesitant look, Ji Chen laughed loudly. Without saying a word, he passed the candied haws in his hand to Ye Yunze. He didn't catch it, and it rolled down from his mouth.

Ji Chen freed up a hand and wiped the place where the sugar scum rolled over Ye Yunze's chin. Seeing Ye Yunze looking at him helplessly, he laughed even harder.How did he never find out before that his Aze is so cute!

How could Ye Yunze not know that Ji Chen was watching a joke on him?Immediately, he gave Ji Chen a hard look, and chewed the candied haws in his mouth as if venting his anger. After such a short time, the sugar wrapped around the fruit was enough to melt in his mouth, so Ye Yunze bit down without losing his teeth.

Seeing Ye Yunze's grinning face, Ji Chen smiled more and more heartily.

Ye Yunze's hands were full of things, and he didn't have time to trouble him for the time being, but he remembered everything for Ji Chen.How did this person bully him? He will definitely get it back in the future!

Ye Yunze looked at the meat skewer in his hand, and while Ji Chen was looking around, he quickly wiped the meat skewer on Ji Chen's face, wanting to give Ji Chen a hit.But who knew, Ji Chen seemed to have eyes on the back of his head, not only turned around and grabbed the skewer of meat precisely when Ye Yunze reached out, but also smashed his mouth, looking delicious He said: "Ah Ze, you are so considerate, let me have another bite! I just ate the meat just now, and I haven't tasted it yet!"

The look that deserved a beating made Ye Yunze want to slap him!

At this time, Ji Chen didn't understand what it means to observe words and emotions, and what it means to accept when you see a good one.He licked his lower lip, and said: "The meat you feed is still delicious, Aze. Why don't I feel that way when I eat it myself! Aze..."

"Shut up!" Ye Yunze felt the veins on his forehead twitch, and roughly thrust the stick with meat into Ji Chen's mouth sideways: "You can't stop your mouth if you have something to eat!"

After killing the snacks in his hands, Ji Chen dragged him to watch people make lanterns.

A great war had just passed, and many people came here to buy lanterns and put them in the river for the safety of their families.

Seeing that the lantern was tied delicately, Ji Chen also wanted to buy one to put together with Ye Yunze. Who knew, the person who tied the lantern looked up and recognized him, so he refused to take his money anyway.

In that person's words, Ji Chen drove away the Yi people for them, and once again protected them, he is their great benefactor, he is also very happy to do something for Ji Chen.Hearing what he said, Ji Chen didn't insist anymore, took the most delicate lantern handed to him by the person who tied the lantern, took Ye Yunze's hand, and came to the river.

The wind in the evening brings a slight coolness, blowing away the impetuousness and hustle and bustle of the day.

Ji Chen and Ye Yunze stood beside the sparkling water, their minds were extremely clear.

"I only hope that in the future, every day will be as peaceful as today."

After Ji Chen finished speaking, he bent down and gently pushed the lantern into the river.

Ye Yunze held his hand tightly, and said firmly, "Yes, the wish you made today will definitely come true in the future, I assure you."

In the end, Ji Chen and Ye Yunze boarded the tower of the border city. Looking at the dust billowing outside the city, they felt that the whole field of vision had become vast.Personal joys and sorrows, in front of this scene, seem to be nothing.

"Look, this is the border line we have been guarding. To the west of the border line, there are the Yi people, the Da Yue country, and many, many small border countries. Some small countries are beautiful and rich, peaceful, and some countries are like barbarians. The kingdom of man is the same, greedy..." Ji Chen told Ye Yunze in detail.

Ye Yunze stared and said: "This is the place you have been guarding?"

"No, it's not me." Ji Chen shook his head and corrected Ye Yunze: "It's the place we've been guarding."

A sense of responsibility and mission emerged spontaneously from the bottom of Ye Yunze's heart.

In the past, it wasn't that he didn't know about the existence of such a city, and it wasn't that he didn't know that every inch of Daqi's territory was something she had to protect.But at that time, Border Town was just a code name for him, and naturally it was impossible to directly hit his heart like it is now.

But at this time, looking at such a scene, Ye Yunze only felt that there was an ambition in his heart to express, a passion to scatter, but before he could open his mouth, Ji Chen had already spoken his heart out.

"I only hope that there will be no more wars in the border towns in the next ten years or even decades, and my Daqi can communicate with those rich countries."

This time, Ye Yunze didn't speak, but just held Ji Chen's hand to show his determination.

They walked side by side on the road full of blood in the past, and they need to continue walking side by side in the long road ahead.
