At this moment, his consciousness was completely unable to keep up with his eyes.
He stared at the little face in front of him for a while, and light gradually gathered in his eyes.
The moment the body and soul overlapped, he suddenly turned over, ignoring the wounds on his body, lay on his side, and with one hand pulled the sleeping Wen Xiao’ai into his arms, holding her tightly, burying his face in her neck.
Smelling the scent on her body, familiar to the extreme, Jun Moyan’s arms trembled with excitement.
He could hardly believe he had the chance to hold her again.
"Meow~" The already restless sleeping Wen Xiao’ai was awakened by Jun Moyan’s embrace, though she was still a bit groggy.
Jun Moyan’s voice, trembling with undeniable excitement, sounded in her ear.
Wen Xiao’ai was stunned, then blinked, her mind instantly cleared.
"Xiaoguai." Jun Moyan held her tighter.
"Yes, I’m awake, I’m awake." Jun Moyan held her tightly, unable to stop the warmth in his eyes.
"Let me see, let me see." Wen Xiao’ai reached out and pushed one of his arms.
Though reluctant, Jun Moyan loosened his hold on her.
Wen Xiao’ai’s small hands touched Jun Moyan’s pale face, and seeing that he was safe, she couldn’t help but cry.
"Wah... Jun Moyan, you scared me to death..."
"It’s okay, it’s okay." Jun Moyan hurriedly wiped her tears. Thɪs chapter is updatᴇd by Novᴇl_Fire(.)net
Seeing her equally poor complexion and those swollen eyes from crying, his heart ached terribly.
"Wah... I thought you’d never wake up again, I didn’t know what to do, I was so scared..."
"Don’t be scared, don’t be scared, I’m here."
"If you didn’t wake up, my eyes would’ve been ruined from crying."
Wen Xiao’ai recalled Jun Moyan’s condition at the time, and still terrified, the more she spoke, the more aggrieved and panicked she felt.
Jun Moyan lowered his head, tenderly and apologetically kissed Wen Xiao’ai’s swollen eyes.
Wen Xiao’ai wrapped her arms around his neck, crying uncontrollably.
"Why are you so silly, shielding me from harm, you should have let her catch me, I have many lives and can’t be killed, but you only have one life, once lost it’s gone." The more Wen Xiao’ai spoke, the more fiercely she cried.
"Don’t cry." Jun Moyan kissed her hair, softly comforting her.
"If you didn’t wake up, I would’ve had to go back to the Demon Clan to find the Medicine King. If I went back, I’d never come back again, even if you woke up, you wouldn’t see me anymore, wah..."
"No, I haven’t married you yet, I won’t leave you alone."
When you are facing death, feeling your life slipping away bit by bit, thinking it’s truly the end, everything around you becomes clear.
He remembered clearly, at the last moment before his consciousness completely faded, he reviewed his life, all those past moments without Wen Xiao’ai just skimmed by.
But all the moments since finding Wen Xiao’ai played in his mind like a slideshow.
Even at the very moment of dying, he felt sweetness.
Because his heart, his mind, was full of Wen Xiao’ai.
And the only thing he regretted was saying "no" to Wen Xiao’ai too many times.
Even more regrettable was not having the courage to hold her hand and be with her, even driving her away, making her face everything alone.
He thought he would leave with endless regret, but King Yan did not take him.
The once hesitant, always wanting to love but unable to Jun Moyan, after this incident, had completely steadied his heart.
