Chapter 798: The Hunter Lady is the Savior of the Powerful Official 59
The candlelight in the post station flickered in the cold wind, and Xiao Yunzhou stared at the green smoke emanating from the silver incense burner.
The bluish-gray tobacco was wrapped in a very light sweet fragrance, like the scent of soapberry mixed with the scent of honey used in Miaomiao's hair, and was slowly seeping into Miaomiao's body, as if it wanted to entangle into her bones and blood.
However, Miaomiao, the person involved, did not notice that the fragrance in the room was sticking to her body in a strange arc.
"Sister, today is my birthday."
Xiao Yunzhou put down the bowl and looked at Miaomiao with a smile, as if reminding her and acting coquettishly. His eyes were sparkling and full of youthful vigor.
Miaomiao looked up from the bowl of noodles, nodded, and prepared to take out the gift she had prepared and hand it to Xiao Yunzhou.
But I didn't expect that his next words would be to fulfill his previous promise.
"Didn't my sister say before that she could grant me a wish on my birthday?
Can I let my sister hug me?
When my parents were still alive, they would hug me on my birthday, which was really warming.”
When Xiao Yunzhou said this, he seemed to think of his deceased parents. A trace of brokenness flashed across his eyes, and he looked very pitiful.
But before he could finish his words, Miaomiao stood up and hugged Xiao Yunzhou in her arms.
The man, who was obviously a head taller than Miaomiao, now bent down actively so that Miaomiao could hug him tighter. That was the fragrance and warmth that belonged only to Miaomiao.
He couldn't help but want to put his arm, which was placed aside to show his gentlemanliness, around her slender waist and hug her tighter and tighter.
That was Miaomiao, who belonged only to him. He was eighteen years old now, and it was time to release the seal on some emotions that he dared not touch.
When Xiao Yunzhou thought of this, his gentlemanly arms finally eagerly wrapped around Miaomiao, and his cheek rubbed against Miaomiao's neck, as if they had finally found a comfortable position, just to fit in better with each other.
Miaomiao could feel Xiao Yunzhou trembling under this embrace. She thought of the young man in her arms, a nobleman, who had to spend his birthday in a leaky post station, hunted by the useless eldest prince, and had nothing except his family and money...
Miaomiao's heart softened. She had originally thought she would just hold him a couple of times, but now she felt, what's wrong with holding the child a couple more times? He just missed home and family, and felt wronged after holding on for so long.
Even now Miaomiao feels that if she gives him one more wish, he will have a happy birthday.
"Tell me, is there any wish you want me to fulfill?"
Finally, after the hug, Miaomiao let go of Xiao Yunzhou, patted his shoulder, and her eyes were full of smiles.
Xiao Yunzhou's throat rolled, and as he looked into her eyes, the desire in his mouth almost came out.
He was extremely greedy towards Miaomiao. He wanted to get everything from her, and he also wanted her to only see him in her eyes and have only him in her heart.
I want to do all those impulsive things that have flashed through his mind in his dreams or even in the blink of an eye. I want to kiss every bit of her skin from head to toe...
Miaomiao's smile was a little stiff. When she first said that, it was filled with the joy and blessings of an elder, but why did she feel that the look in Xiao Yunzhou's eyes when he looked at her was filled with unspeakable greed?
It's like a weasel paying New Year's greetings to a chicken, and then unable to restrain its drooling look when it is about to kill the chicken and eat its meat.
But she didn't want to be the chicken that was eaten clean during the New Year's greetings...
Miaomiao subconsciously wanted to take a closer look at her sworn brother, who was so dignified and upright, and who was still morally upright even after being persecuted many times. However, she saw that her sworn brother had lowered his eyes and looked ashamed to speak.
"Sister, being able to accompany me is already the best birthday gift. How dare I ask for more?"
The fragile and grateful look turned the slight stiffness and doubt that had just risen in Miaomiao into a feeling of great pride.
"Well, I'm your sister, so it's only right that I grant you a wish."
Miaomiao patted Xiao Yunzhou on the shoulder and said generously that his IQ had completely gone beyond expectations.
"Then, I want my sister to be with me forever."
Xiao Yunzhou lowered his eyes, not daring to think about those thoughts that would make people blush and their hearts beat faster if they were taken out one by one. He just expressed his most desired wish in the most innocent voice.
The candlelight illuminated Xiao Yunzhou's eyes. Subconsciously, Miaomiao seemed to think of some famous ferocious beast. Although it was such a pure request, she inexplicably got goosebumps from the top of her head to the soles of her feet.
Ignoring the inexplicable vigilance in her heart, Miaomiao subconsciously thought that this wish was indeed not difficult.
But when she answered, her mouth inexplicably chose an answer that seemed a little strange to her.
"This wish is not difficult to fulfill. When you have a brother-in-law in the future, I will let him be my son-in-law."
It was completely irrelevant and completely shattered Xiao Yunzhou's expectations. If he hadn't reacted quickly, Miaomiao might have seen the hostility and murderous intent in his eyes towards a fictitious character.
Xiao Yunzhou lowered his eyes, and his hands at his sides clenched suddenly, his nails digging into his palms. The pain made him sober up a little.
Then, before Miaomiao could see what was in his eyes, Xiao Yunzhou directly hugged her in his arms. It was a hug that was even more intimate than before.
"it is good......"
If the person sleeping next to you is not me, then no matter who lies next to you, he will tear the other person into pieces.
Xiao Yunzhou does not claim to be a good person. If he were a good person, he would never be able to avenge the Xiao family in his previous life.
In this world, no one will show mercy to you just because you are a good person. You have to go get what you want yourself. He is just meeting the social definition of good in terms of benefiting all people.
Xiao Yunzhou hugged Miaomiao like this for a while, watching with deep eyes as the black hair penetrated into Miaomiao's body little by little. The warm and sweet scent fascinated him.
This hug lasted a little too long. Miaomiao felt a little awkward from being hugged purely at the beginning. Her rationality, which had been away for a while, finally returned to the higher plane of thought.
She coughed lightly and broke free from Xiao Yunzhou's slightly hot embrace.
"By the way, I have a birthday present for you."
Then, under the obedient gaze of a certain man, Miaomiao took out a plain purse from her sleeve and handed it to Xiao Yunzhou.
There are a few small blades of grass embroidered on the purse with needle and thread. It looks cold and plain, with a sense of the rustic embarrassment of a novice learning embroidery.
"This is for you. It's not worth much, but it's a token of my appreciation."
Miaomiao felt a little embarrassed, mainly because Xiao Yunzhou had a lot of money, and maybe things he made himself would be more thoughtful.
Of course, she was not completely stingy. After seeing Xiao Yunzhou happily accept the birthday gift she gave him and even carefully put it in his arms, she immediately took out a second gift from her sleeve.
"That's true too. Although I only got my money after meeting you, I bought all of it with legal income."
The second birthday gift was an exquisite white jade hair crown, which Miaomiao had someone custom-made for her in the store when she was in the capital.
The jade of the hair crown is warm and smooth, and the carving is simple. It looks quite decent, neither expensive nor cheap, which is just right for her current situation of being neither completely poor nor rich enough.
