Shen Zhi Qiao's eyes widened, her heart was filled with pain because of his words, unlike the pain he felt when he personally said he would kill her, which caused her heart to ache for him.

Straightening his spine, she hugged his neck and pressed her entire body against his.

She wanted to tell him that she didn't want to run away, but how could she bear to run away from him?!

Moreover, they now had children …

Child?

Shen Zhi Qiao's eyes suddenly lit up, and immediately released his hand. Lifting his head to look at him, he was just about to speak up and tell him the news, when suddenly, the steed beneath his butt went crazy, rushed out, and, due to this sudden change, slammed heavily into his chest.

Tuoba's expression sank. This horse was extremely alert and alert. Unless it was sensitive to danger, it would become abnormal. Otherwise, it would definitely be a good horse.

While he was thinking, the sound of hooves could be heard behind him.

Shen Zhi Qiao was shocked. Looking over his shoulder, his eyes widened in shock. Dozens of horses were chasing after the two of them.

"Don't look!" Tuoba Yu touched her head, and the voice finally sounded a bit warmer. "Trust me!"

With these words, Shen Zhi Qiao immediately relaxed his body and obediently leaned against his chest.

Tuoba Yu revealed his first smile of the day.

He narrowed his eyes and looked behind him, then pulled the horse even faster.

After making a sharp turn, his waist was hugged tightly. He then soared into the air and landed on a large tree.

Shen Zhi Qiao was stunned. Raising his head to look at him, he saw that his eyes were staring at the tree.

He blinked and looked down. The two horses that they were riding flew like the wind while the two men in black chased after the horse. After a while, they disappeared from where they stood until they could no longer be seen.

With a sigh of relief, Shen Zhi Qiao leaned against his chest and closed her eyes to take a light breath.

Tuoba Yu stared at the direction that the group of people disappeared in with a dark expression.

He could have killed these people just like how he killed the previous group, but these people were sent by his grandma. If he wanted to kill them all for her, then her determination to kill her would have deepened.

Ye Zichen let out a sigh of relief, then stopped her from flying back down.

When he landed on the ground, he was prepared to release her, but when he noticed that there was a white cloth wrapped around her left arm. Furthermore, it had already been covered by a red cloth.

He exerted some force, causing Shen Zhi Qiao to scream in pain, and her face to turn pale.

Tuoba Yu pursed his lips and loosened up a bit of strength. He looked at her with his eyes scrutinizing her. It seemed like her answer was no longer needed. What was wrong with her injury?!

Furthermore, she once said that the sword was poisonous, so …

Her heart tensed up. Just what had she encountered these past few days?

Shen Zhi Qiao was relieved of the pain. She raised her head and looked at him. With a pale face, she shook her head, "I'm fine now …"

Her body was suddenly firmly locked in place. The strength was so strong that it seemed as if it would crush her whole body into pieces.

Tuoba Yu had to endure it so much that the veins on both sides of his temples bulged. His heart was filled with pain and regret, but he couldn't find the words to describe it. All he could do was hug her tightly with his two arms.

Shen Zhi Qiao's heart skipped a beat. It was as if he knew what he was thinking about. His right hand gently patted his back as if he was comforting him.

After that, Tuoba Yu brought her to a small stream in the forest. The narrow stream flowed down from the tall forest, and although the water in the stream was slow, the water was extremely clear.

Other than a few odd cries that occasionally came from the forest, there was no other sound.

Tuoba Yu then sat her down on a large flat pebble. He reached out his hand to help untie the white cloth that had been soaked in blood. A long and deep wound appeared before his eyes, dripping with blood.

With a sharp pain in his heart, Tuoba Yu bit his lips and didn't say a word. He only held the white handkerchief in his hand and his fingers trembled for a moment before he threw the white cloth out. He tore off a strip of red cloth from his clothes and soaked it in the river, carefully wiping off the blood on her arm.

It was just that the area was wider, and some of the blood had already soaked into the rest of her arm.

Her phoenix-like eyes scanned the surroundings. After confirming that there was no one around, she tore off the jade belt at her waist.

Shen Zhiqiao was shocked. He hurriedly held his hand and asked, "Tuoba Yu, what … what are you doing?"

Tuoba Yu furrowed his long eyebrows and withdrew his hand from her petite hand. He did not reply but instead hooked his slender fingers onto her collar and shaved off the clothes on his left shoulder, exposing the wound completely. Then, he used his phoenix eyes to seriously clean up the wound.

Shen Zhi Qiao's entire body shrunk. Her eyes trembled as she looked over. Her face was as red as an apple. Half of her skin was exposed to the cold air …

However, he felt extremely uncomfortable in his heart, so he could only use an excuse with a trembling voice, "Ta, Tuoba Yu, I'm cold …"

Tuoba's hand stopped wiping slightly, then he pulled down his large subordinate behind him and placed it on top of her shoulders. He then saw that the red cloth had been put into the stream to wash, and when he turned around holding the cloth, he kissed her lips without any warning, looking extremely gentle.

After being shocked, Shen Zhiqiao's body softened under his lips. In the end, she could only lean into his embrace. Her watery eyes gradually became misty, and her face became as red as a beautiful rose. The corners of her eyes were full of flirtatiousness.

At this moment, he had already taken out the remaining blood from her wound. From his bosom, he took out a small blue and white porcelain bottle and placed it on her wound.

"Mm …" So painful!

Shen Zhi Qiao moved her arms in resistance, her lower jaw was lifted, and her lips were once again covered. With her consciousness blurry, she heard a tearing sound come from the air.

Tuoba Yu kissed her as he shifted her gaze while using incomparable effort to bandage her wounds.

By the time he was done, he was sweating profusely.

Shen Zhi Qiao could still feel the pain from his arm, but it was greatly removed by his lingering kiss. His face became red and he tilted his head, purposely not looking at him.

Tuoba Yu combed his breath and lowered his head. He had wanted to look at his masterpiece, but instead, he had fallen into a different beautiful scenery.

His Adam's apple moved a few times, and just looking at him, it was like his stomach was on fire, burning with pain.

Tuoba Yu suddenly stood up and kissed her on the lips.

Shen Zhiqiao bowed and grabbed his hand, then hurriedly said, "Tuoba Yu, you can't …"

Impossible?!

Tuoba Yu bit down hard on her chin. His eyes were red and glistening as he stared at her with the same stern expression he used to have when facing her.

Ever since their intentions had been made known, she had never refused him on the couch.

But now, after leaving the palace and meeting someone once, she could no longer accept his affection?!

The hot blood in his body instantly dropped to the icy cold bottom of the chasm.

Tuoba Yu felt a little stifled in his heart. He quickly waved her hand and got off her body. His face was as dark as the world's thickest and darkest ink as he looked down on her.
