It must’ve been what Wen Nian said, "In this life, if you don’t truly go mad once, how can you say you’ve lived?"
So even if it was a base of the rebel army in country M, even if it was atop these mountains, even if danger could strike at any mont, even if... it was just a simple, rough tent, it was enough for them to fulfill all their joys with each other.
"Ha... ha... ha..."
Song Lili gasped heavily, her hands, which had nearly gouged ten claw marks down Wen Nian’s back due to extre excitent and tension, were clenched so tight they were almost cramping, but finally slowly relaxed, straightened, and gently caressed his sweaty back, softly clinging to it.
Wen Nian, his body bowed, slowly withdrew, lifted his head, and his forehead touched hers, their rapid breath intertwining.
He let out a contented noise laced with a light chuckle,
"Happy?"
Song Lili opened her bleary eyes, feeling her entire face burning hot, as if she had a fever.
"...Happy..."
She felt the person saying these words couldn’t be herself, but peculiarly, the voice was hers.
Wen Nian smiled and gently kissed her,
"I really like this about you, being so candid in front of ."
Song Lili’s eyes, sparkling like stars, shimred with moisture, perhaps from excitent or exhaustion.
Her hands glided up and down his spine, movents filled with ambiguity and temptation, yet they revealed the affection and intimacy she wanted to express.
"Didn’t hurt the baby, did I?"
He asked in a hoarse voice.
"You’re asking now, isn’t that a little too late?"
Wen Nian pulled her closer, flipped over slightly, and covered them both with the blanket.
The mountaintop was truly chilly at night, the vigorous activity from before added quite a bit of warmth, but it soon faded away.
Song Lili snuggled closer into Wen Nian’s embrace.
"Ah Nian, returning ho... that’s not difficult, right?"
She asked.
Wen Nian hugged her tightly and closed his eyes,
"Let’s not think about that now. Isn’t this great, a beautiful ti and scene..."
"You must’ve thought of a way out before you ca here, right?"
However, Song Lili didn’t let it go and persisted in her questioning.
Seeing him close his eyes as if playing dead, she reached out and pinched the two small protrusions on his chest fiercely,
"Ali, you really are..."
Wen Nian quickly held her tighter, using the seamless space to stop the mischievous movent of her hands.
"Where did you learn all of this from?"
Wen Nian muttered.
Song Lili cleared her throat, "Do you really have to ask that question?"
"Alright, let’s stop talking about it."
Wen Nian opened his eyes, the pangs of jealousy rising in his heart again.
"Answer my question honestly, before you ca here... you certainly thought of a way out, right?"
Wen Nian took a deep breath,
"I just made the worst-case plans, but as for... a retreat... I actually hadn’t thought it through completely."
"..."
"It’s fine when we’re dostic; we have quick access to a lot of intelligence, but here, our resources are incredibly limited."
"Our position is getting more dangerous, and I wanted to think everything through before coming, but you couldn’t wait for , could you?"
Song Lili pursed her lips, understanding this helplessness.
It was like when she first learned that Lu Xiaoer was in trouble, she couldn’t wait to sort everything out neatly because Lu Xiaoer couldn’t wait.
Every second had to be fought for.
If she and Zhongli hadn’t caught that flight, arriving at Caesar just an hour or two later...
Not to ntion Lu Xiaoer not being able to hold on, the rebel army’s artillery wouldn’t have waited to fire.
Perhaps she had grown accustod to thinking of Wen Nian that way, assuming that whatever he did, he would ticulously plan.
A leader of a country couldn’t just risk everything on a whim, could he?
"When I brought them here, you, Zhongli, and Lu Xiaoer were already surrounded by more than a dozen people. I didn’t need to be much later, just one more minute, and you probably would’ve chosen to throw a grenade and a Shock Bomb when they got closest to you. Blow them clean away to leave a path for Lu Xiaoer and Zhongli Wuzhi."
"As for yourself..."
Wen Nian took a deep breath, "Ali, tell ... should I punish you severely?"
"..."
He had seen through her intentions at that ti.
It had not been easy holding back all this way.
"You told to wait for you to co back, and you promised nicely, but what happened?"
Song Lili hurriedly covered his mouth, "Okay, okay, let’s not talk about it anymore."
Wen Nian bit her hand gently and snorted,
"You really are..."
"So, how are we going to leave tomorrow? Didn’t the governnt arrange how we would get in here? Didn’t they arrange for us to get out?"
"If we were in a governnt army area, it would be straightforward, but now we’ve co to a place held by the rebel army—"
