Doing It Yourself (1)
Ye Lang hadn't noticed the problem at first, but with Cold-Blooded Fifth there, she reminded him. She also knew what Li Yue was going to do, but she didn't say anything.
"What's wrong?" Ye Lang asked.
"I... I still can't move. Can you take me there..." Li Yue pointed to a rather secluded place.
"Where are you going? Oh, you need to use the restroom, right? Why didn't you say so earlier? Didn't I ask you to call me yesterday? I was holding it in..." Ye Lang realized the reason, and as he talked more and more, Li Yue's face became redder and redder.
"Shut up! Take me there right now!!" Li Yue stopped Ye Lang, afraid that he might say something embarrassing next.
"I understand..." Ye Lang picked up Li Yue, carried her to a secluded spot, put her down, and left.
Before Ye Lang left, he said, "Let me know when you're done!"
"Hurry up, don't peek!"
"I don't have time! I'm going to brush my teeth and wash my face. Do you want me to get some water for you to wash that area later...?"
"..."
Li Yue realized she had no privacy left in front of Ye Lang, and if things continued like this, she would lose all face. She was considering whether she should just go back and let people know, since it was Ye Lang who died, not her.
But she still couldn't bring herself to do it!
Later, Li Yue also came to like this feeling, because when she was so weak, she could let Ye Lang do everything for her and serve her.
She didn't know why, but she felt very good. The feeling of Ye Lang serving her was much better than that of the servants. It was more than a hundred times better.
Many years later, she still remembers those days and loves the feeling. At that time, she wished that this moment could last longer, but unfortunately it only lasted a few days.
Ye Lang and Li Yue continued their journey deeper into the area. Due to Li Yue's weakness, their progress was not fast. The place they reached three days later should only be a day's journey away.
Although the process was a bit slow, there were quite a few prey. Ye Lang 'Ye Lang archery skills were on full display at this time, and his barbecue skills had also improved slightly.
For the past three days, Li Yue has been in the same state, or as Ye Lang puts it, half-dead, so he had to do the barbecuing himself.
However, generally speaking, Ye Lang doesn't like barbecue. He prefers to make soup or beggar's chicken, which doesn't require him to go around to do anything; he just has to wait.
That day, Ye Lang and Li Yue sat by the fire as usual, waiting for the beggar's chicken inside. At this moment, Ye Lang and Li Yue seemed to have become much more harmonious, chatting and laughing, and becoming quite intimate.
Now, when Li Yue is being held by Ye Lang, she no longer blushes. She is no different from usual, as if she is doing something very ordinary. This is probably just a habit.
Soon, the beggar's chicken was ready. Ye Lang took it out of the fire, let it cool for a while, and then cracked it open, and the aroma immediately filled the surroundings.
"Here's a chicken leg for you, so you can gain some strength in your legs quickly. Otherwise, it's too much trouble for me to carry you around all the time!" Ye Lang first handed the chicken leg to Li Yue, and then took a wild fruit with him.
In this mountainous area, there are many delicious wild fruits, and Ye Lang and Li Yue both like to pick some for themselves.
"What, you're already disgusted with me now? You wanted to marry me before, but seeing you like this, I think I need to think carefully!" Li Yue smiled and joked with Ye Lang.
After spending these three days together, Li Yue and Ye Lang have grown much closer. This shows that if things continue like this, Li Yue will be in danger, as Ye Lang will successfully steal her heart.
"If I married you, I could take care of you and wouldn't find you annoying! It's a pity you're not willing..." Ye Lang tore off another chicken leg and took a big bite, his mouth full of oil.
"If you're really interested in marrying me, you'd better be prepared beforehand. Otherwise, how will I know if you'll abandon me after we're married and go around having affairs?" Li Yue said with a smile.
"I don't know how to do that, I'm a good person!" Ye Lang said seriously.
From the side, Cold-Blooded Fifth spoke up in the shadows, "You're a decent person, the 'Wind, Wind Flower Snow Moon Tower' is all yours. You're a brothel owner, and you've been indulging in drinking, gambling, and whoring since you were a child!!"
"I just run a brothel, I just go there to drink and have fun, I don't patronize prostitutes..." Ye Lang replied.
"It's still the same..."
Just as Ye Lang was about to retort again, an unexpected situation occurred, which made Ye Lang want to turn around and run away, abandoning Li Yue.
Of course, this wasn't because he was selfish, but because Li Yue was not in danger.
"It smells so good! Would you mind sharing a chicken wing with me?" A beautiful voice rang out, and at the same time, an equally beautiful figure appeared in front of Li Yue.
At that moment, Ye Lang was facing Li Yue. He didn't see who was behind him, so he casually said, "If you want to eat, grill it yourself. I can give you a pheasant."
"..."
Both the newcomer and Li Yue were stunned. They hadn't expected Ye Lang to refuse like that. However, this statement was true for most people, but the newcomer's identity was somewhat special.
Li Yue immediately said, "If Your Majesty wishes to eat, you can have my portion; I'll eat it later! Please forgive me for being unwell and unable to rise to greet Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty?!" Ye Lang was stunned for a moment. Could it be...
Ye Lang slowly turned his head around...
Holy crap! It really is her!!
Zhao Yarou, the Empress of the Xiangkong Empire, was standing not far behind Ye Lang. Behind her stood many Royal Guards, and these Royal Guards were no ordinary people; each of them was an elite.
They were all at the Earth Grade or above. Although their numbers were not large, their strength was absolutely formidable.
And this only covers what's in the open; if you include what's hidden, it's even more outrageous!
"Lieutenant Li Yue, what's wrong with your body?" Zhao Yarou glanced at Ye Lang's back, and seeing his fox ears and tail, she no longer paid attention to Ye Lang.
"I feel a little unwell, and I feel weak all over..." Li Yue replied, trying her best to hide the fact that she had been poisoned by the Ten Fragrance Weakening Powder.
If they spoke directly to Zhao Yarou would likely produce the antidote quickly, but then the whole thing would be exposed.
At this moment, Li Yue, like Ye Lang, hoped that Zhao Yarou would leave immediately after sitting here for a while and not stay with them any longer.
"Are you sick? If so, just tell those people to come and pick you up. Anyway, you don't care about any ranking," Zhao Yarou said. She knew Li Yue a little and knew that she wasn't the kind of person who wanted empty fame.
