In Love - Chapter 15

Su Moxiu was awakened by Yan Jingze’s stubbled.

He looked at Yan Jingze dissatisfied but Yan Jing smiled innocently at him: “Everyone else has already gotten up, we should get up too.”

Su Moxiu thought about how usual it is- he always got up early, how did he sleep in while everyone else already got up?

Wait a minute!

Su Moxiu suddenly remembered what happened last night. Last night, Yan Jing was with him…and he…

He still feels sore!

Yan Jing was seriously injured and still not healed, but his strength is not weak!

Of course, he didn’t dare to make Yan Jingze work too hard, because he was afraid that Yan Jingze would accidentally crack the wound that had just healed, so later he started to move by himself.

Although the position is not quite right, the initiative is still in his hand at the end.

Su Moxiu was a little dizzy. He sat up and looked at Yan Jingze with a dazed look.

“AXiu, I’m already yours, you can’t abandon me in the future!” Yan Jingze said.

Su Moxiu: “…” There seems to be something wrong with that statement…

No, no, no, there’s nothing wrong.

Yan Jingze is indeed his person now!

Even if what happened last night was a little different from what he imagined, the result was the same – they had a skin-to-skin relationship, and they had conducted the Zhou Gongzhi rite1.

Su Moxiu said: “That’s right, you are already mine. If you dare to like others…” He looked at Yan Jingze threateningly.

Yan Jingze replied: “I only have you in my heart, and it can only hold you alone.”

“Mm.” Su Moxiu nodded with satisfaction, got up and leaned his back on Yan Jingze, “Me too.”

Yan Jingze couldn’t help but kiss his back.

Su Moxiu: “…” This person is really…too shameless! Should he say a few words to him and tell him not to do this?

Forget it, don’t talk about it with him. If he says anything about that to him, what if he really won’t be like this in the future…What should he do then?

Su Moxiu put on his clothes silently, and understood why Yan Jingze had to leave a bucket of hot water when they took a bath yesterday.

This person was very skilled at helping him clean up last night!

He was also very skilled when fiddling with him!

Su Moxiu’s heart felt a little sour, then a little distressed for Yan Jingze.

At the same time, he couldn’t help but wonder – did the Rong man, who took Yan Jingze away, like to lay under others?

Sigh. It’s not impossible…

After all, it feels quite good.

Wait, don’t think about this anymore! So as not to feel worse the more he thinks about it.

The past is over, if he really has to think about it, why not think about the future – when he returns to Qiongnan City, how will he introduce Yan Jingze to his father?

Su Moxiu was thinking about it while Yan Jing packed up the sheets and threw them into the kang hole to burn them.

This stuff takes away the trouble, leaving it behind…it must not be left behind!

Su Moxiu silently watched Yan Jingze finish the ‘last stage’ of work, then leaned over and bit Yan Jingze’s neck.

He wants to stamp Yan Jingze. This person can only be his in the future!

Thinking so, Su Moxiu put on his clothes and strode out of the room.

Although he felt a little uncomfortable while walking, he had practiced martial arts so this little injury was nothing to him!

Yan Jingze pulled out Su Moxiu’s dagger, then walked out while shaving himself.

This dagger is sharp, but it is still inconvenient to shave…Yan Jingze could only shave a little slowly.

Zhang Erque walked by and saw the red mark on Yan Jingze’s neck, who was raising his head.

He can’t suck himself in that kind of place.

So second young master, they…

Tsk tsk, second young master is quite possessive, he really can’t tell.

Zhang Erque used to want Yan Jingze to change his ways, but now that things have become a foregone conclusion…

Zhang Erque said to Yan Jingze, “Yan Jingze, don’t worry, I will speak for you when you see General Su.”

Yan Jingze is a man. If he follows second young master, there’s a high probability that he will not end well.

That being the case…it’s okay for him to help Yan Jingze and allow Yan Jingze to live better for the time being, right?

Thinking like this, Zhang Erque said in a low voice, “Yan Jingze, after you follow second young master, you also have to plan for yourself. You have to save some money to buy some land, so that if something happens in the future, your life can go on…Of course, if second young master treats you well, don’t even think about wronging second young master. If you dare to do that, I will punch you in the head!”

Yan Jingze immediately assured him: “I will never wronged AXiu.”

“That’s good.” Zhang Erque said.

He has now regarded Yan Jingze as a woman, so…He no longer hates Yan Jingze, but instead he now pity him a little bit.

Yan Jingze, who was looked at with sympathy by Zhang Erque, “…”

Yan Jingze showed off the red mark on his neck, no, after shaving, he shrunk his neck and wrapped himself up, then put a piece of sheepskin on Su Moxiu’s horse, so that Su Moxiu would not feel uncomfortable when he rode it.

Besides…He won’t get on the saddle with Su Moxiu today, he will ride Xiao Hua by himself.

Xiao Hua has been raised for a few days. Now its body is much better, so it should be used!

Of course, the most important thing is… two people riding a horse will make Su Moxiu uncomfortable and tire him out…

After Yan Jingze set Su Moxiu’s saddle in sheepskin, their breakfast was ready.

For breakfast today, they invited their neighbors to make pork cabbage meat pie. In addition, they also used the iron cooking pot to make braised pork with vermicelli to eat.

The pork belly slices mixed with cabbage noodles are really fragrant!

After everyone had a full meal, they got on their horses and went on their way.

In the afternoon, they saw Qiongnan City wall hanging with white flags.

There are many people guarding the gate of Qiongnan City. The soldiers guarding the city also look a little restless.

Su Moxiu and his party rode on horses, which were very different from ordinary people. Therefore, as soon as they approached, many soldiers alertly surrounded them to check. After Su Moxiu revealed his identity, these people relaxed, and someone asked, “General Su, were you in Mount Qiong? Have you found General Zhou?”

“No,” Su Moxiu with a sad expression, asked, “These white flags…”

“A month ago, the news of General Zhou’s disappearance spread, and now…they are going to give General Zhou a funeral.” That’s why he asked Su Moxiu about Yan Jingze’s news.

Su Moxiu’s eyes flashed. He asked a few more questions about the situation in the city as the man answered them one by one.

Zhou Jingshan’s funeral was actually organized by Zhou Zhenrong…

Su Moxiu said: “Thank you for letting me know, I will go to my father first!”

“Little General, please!” Those people backed away silently, and no one looked at Yan Jingze more from the beginning to the end.

Although people with fair skin like this are rare here, it is not unusual. Su Moxiu’s own identity is not low, so it is not surprising that the advisors around him pay attention to raising themselves to be fine-skinned and tender.

Cai An sighed in relief. So, he didn’t really blame him for not recognizing General Zhou. How could he know that General Zhou would look so tender after he shaved?

Since Zhou Jingshan came to the border, Qiongnan City has become more and more lively, but today when they entered the city…

Many places in Qiongnan City were hung with white cloth, making the city look desolate.

Su Moxiu’s expression was solemn. He didn’t even have time to think about Yan Jingze as he rushed all the way to the Su family’s house.

Su Xingyin has been stationed elsewhere in the past ten years, but he had stayed in Qiongnan City for a long time in the early years, so he also has a house here.

Su Moxiu arrived at the door of the house, turned around and dismounted…

He accidentally hurt the wound in that hidden place.

Su Moxiu said to Cai An, “Cai An, you bring Yan Jingze to my room. I’ll go see my father first.”

Cai An agreed, and then Su Moxiu strode inside to find Su Xingyin.

Su Xingyin happened to be at home. When he saw Su Moxiu, he asked, “AXiu, have you found your Uncle Zhou?”

“No.” Su Moxiu replied.

“Ah…” Su Xingyin sighed.

“Father, I see white hangings everywhere in the city, General Zhou…”

Su Xingyin answered: “Zhou Zhenrong said that we can’t keep hidden about your uncle Zhou. It is better to do the funeral quickly, rearrange the military affairs, and let the court determine the new leader, so as to stabilize Qiongnan City… You know, it’s winter now, the Rong people will go to the south at any time…I also agree.”

“But father, Zhou Zhenrong should be the culprit who killed General Zhou!” Su Moxiu said.

“What did you say?” Su Xingyin was surprised.

Su Moxiu talked about what he had investigated, as well as his own guesses.

He even took out the sheepskin bag he brought back from thousands of miles, and inside it were the bones left by the guards around Zhou Jingshan.

Su Xingyin listened to his son’s information and saw the corpse and burst into tears.

He did not expect that Zhou Jingshan did not die on the spot, but was chased and killed all the way to the Rong.

Zhou Zhenrong may also be the one who is chasing Zhou Jingshan.

His sworn brother paid a lot for the people at the border, and also cultivated Zhou Zhenrong as his heir. How desperate was he before he died?

Su Xingyin felt as if it had happened to himself. His tears could not stop and he said angrily: “That damned Zhou Zhenrong! I must smash his body into ten thousand pieces!”

His words were full of momentum, but unfortunately at the end…his voice cracked.

He even hiccups.

Seeing his father like this, Su Moxiu was also a little sad, and asked, “Father, what shall we do next?”

Su Xingyin said: “I will get the troops and horses, then go to Zhou Zhenrong!”

After Su Xingyin finished speaking, he walked out in a hurry.

However, he just took a few steps and stopped.

In front of him, Yan Jingze stood beside the Su’s house gate.

Facing Su Xingyin’s shocked gaze, Yan Jingze showed an embarrassed yet polite smile.

Here, there is one thing to say.

When Zhou Jingshan first came to the border sixteen years ago, he did not have a beard. At that time, his military rank was also low, he was only slightly better than the bottom soldier.

Then, because of his tender face, he was looked down upon by others.

After that, he spent some time beheading the Rong people when he first entered the battlefield, and then grew a beard, and then he gradually became the beloved General Zhou.

These things, those who are in the army now don’t know, and there are very few people who have seen Zhou Jingshan’s white and beardless face.

And Su Xingyin happened to be one of them.

At the beginning, Su Xingyin was Zhou Jingshan’s boss.

Therefore, even if Yan Jingze shaved his beard, Su Xingyin could still recognize Yan Jingze.

Now that he has come to Qiongnan City…Yan Jingze doesn’t plan to hide his identity anymore. That’s why he did not go to Su Moxiu’s room but took the initiative to find Su Xingyin.

But he just slept with Su Xingyin’s son yesterday…He was a little embarrassed.

“Yan Jingze, why did you come here?” Zhang Erque’s loud voice rang out.

“Yan Jingze?” Su Xingyin blinked his eyes hard – did he cry too much that he now recognized the wrong person? this man… this man…

“Father, he is Yan Jingze, the person I like!” Su Moxiu gritted his teeth.

He didn’t want to introduce Yan Jingze to his father so early, at least he planned to wait until General Zhou’s affairs were finished before talking about his personal affairs.

But Yan Jing didn’t go to his room and ran out instead. It’s probably because he was uneasy and wanted a title.

He could never let Yan Jingze down.

After Su Moxiu finished speaking, he gave Yan Jingze a reassuring look.

Yan Jingze: “…” He was even more embarrassed now.

However, at this time, Zhang Erque spoke out: “General, this Yan Jingze was robbed back by second young master. Second young master likes him very much.”

“Wha…what?” Su Xingyin’s voice trembled a little. What did Zhang Erque say? His son robbed the man in front of him back?

Su Moxiu gritted his teeth and said, “Father, he’s already mine, and I’ll live with him in the future! I know I’m wrong, but I like men and I can’t change it!”

Su Xingyin was almost out of breath. The person in front of him is already his son’s person?!

At this moment, Su Moxiu felt that it would be better to say it right now.

His father was in a hurry to deal with General Zhou’s affairs. Even if he knew about Yan Jingze’s identity, he could only leave it alone for the time being…When his father had dealt with General Zhou’s affairs, he might have left Yan Jingze alone or even forgotten about Yan Jingze!

Su Moxiu said again: “Dad, don’t be angry…It’s not Yan Jingze’s fault that this happened, it’s me who fell in love with him.”

Su Xingyin trembled, pointed at Yan Jingze and said, “You…you…”

Seeing that Su Xingyin’s expression was not quite right, Zhang Erque was afraid that Su Xingyin would be so angry that he will kill Yan Jingze, so he helped speak up for Yan Jingze: “General Su, it was second young master who take him under him, this…don’t blame Yan Jingze.”

Yan Jingze: “…”

Yan Jingze looked at Su Xingyin, coughed lightly and said, “General Su…” He didn’t even know what to call Su Xingyin…

Su Xingyin: “…” That’s right! This is Zhou Jingshan!

So what did his son do?

T/N: Oh-uh, Su Moxiu, you better treat your father’s sworn brother that you ‘rob’ and lay him ‘under’ you well. (๑˃́ꇴ˂̀)

Chinese euphemism for sexual relation. On a serious note, one sentence history about it: A lot of people were lascivious so it was set up because they don’t want people to have sex casually(or before marriage)
