Transmigrating into the Prince Regent’s Beloved Runaway Wife - Chapter 67.1
unedited
Meng Huan’s tone contained a little probing, but it was very light as if he was casually mentioning it.
In case Lin Bozhou refused him badly.
After saying that, Meng Huan gently pursed his lips, eyes wide open, looking like a cat that allowed his belly to be rubbed, looking incredibly well-behaved and seemed very obedient, with a face full of “absolutely won’t cause trouble, very easy to feed, does not occupy much place, please take me with you”.
Lin Bozhou slightly raised his eyebrows, lips turned inward, and let out an “ah.”
He seemed to be smiling but also not, not expecting Meng Huan’s reason here.
“Mao Chengchang may be able to defend, and this prince may not necessarily go to war.” Lin Bozhou downplayed it.m “Huan Huan is overthinking.”
Meng Huan shifted forward with difficulty. “But you just said that the possibility of him being unable to defend is very high.”
Lin Bozhou: “This husband is guessing, and perhaps it’s not the right guess.”
“How can you guess incorrectly!” Meng Huan knew he was replying perfunctorily to himself, and his lips skewed downward. “Do you not want to take me?”
Lin Bozhou’s voice was gentle, ruffling his hair around his ear. “Liaodong is not as prosperous as the capital and is remote on the frontier. In addition, we must abide by military law and discipline when going out with the army. The food in the army is also not good, and the long march, going into battle, the construction of military defenses, and exhaustion. If we fight in the winter, the weather is freezing, the conditions are harsh, and the environment is even worse. Our Huan Huan’s body has not been well. This husband does not want to see Huan Huan suffer from this.”
Meng Huan grabbed his hand that stroked his ear and neck. “If you can bear hardships, I can also bear it. If you go, I will also go.”
When Meng Huan said this, although his voice was still very soft, it became very firm.
Lin Bozhou looked at him and took a deep breath.
“It’s not a joke,” he said slowly. “Not many people in this world are willing to become soldiers. Look at the soldiers in the Nine Borders running away and scattering. The army is seriously short of soldiers. The imperial court took the banishment to a military post as a punishment, and the military registration is even more untouchable. After guarding the border for a trip, people lost a few pounds of bones and meat, like being cut off a layer of skin, a trip from the gates of hell. Any smart people will not be willing to go.”
Out of character, Meng Huan, who usually listened to Lin Bozhou, gritted his teeth, his eyes dark. “I’m not smart, and I want to go.”
He was so insistent.
How could Lin Bozhou not guess the reason?
After mutually connecting each other’s feelings with great difficulty, this couple had only lived harmoniously together for a few days. However, amidst this unwillingness to part with each other, Lin Bozhou had to go to war. How could Meng Huan feel at ease?
But the danger of going out with the army was far more than anyone could imagine.
Lin Bozhou held Meng Huan’s shoulders with both hands, dark brown eyes gazing down into his eyes, his voice provocative and solemn. “Huan Huan can’t go. Wait in the house for this husband to return.”
Meng Huan also didn’t want to conceal anything. “No, I want to go.”
Lin Bozhou’s tone was deeper, “Huan Huan.”
It sounded a bit stern.
Once he was harsh, Meng Huan’s eyes widened slightly as if he was frightened, turning his head and frowning at the window. After holding it for half a day, he slowly said, “But I just can’t part from you.”
Then, he muttered as if losing strength, “I want to stay with my husband, not even a day apart. I don’t know how to live in the prince’s residence without Husband.” He was not only worried about Lin Bozhou’s safety. “I don’t want to spend time with others, eating, drinking, and playing well. Only staying by your side will give me peace of mind, and I’m happy to stand with you.”
“You can be busy then and do not need to worry about me. I will definitely not bother you.” Meng Huan hung his head down, revealing a clean and distinct white neck, whispering to himself, “I just want to be closer to you. I just want to be with you.”
Every word seemed like his usual trivial tone.
Lin Bozhou’s heart seemed cut open inch by inch as something boiled and overflowed. He grabbed Meng Huan’s wrist and said softly, “The war is urgent. When the time comes, this husband can’t focus on love, nor can he take care of Huan Huan.”
Meng Huan shook his head. “It’s okay. I can play alone in a place very close to you.”
Lin Bozhou sounded a little helpless, “Huan Huan.”
If it were a few months earlier, Meng Huan wouldn’t have thought he would be so clingy, and the target was the murderous Lin Bozhou. Meng Huan wasn’t sure why he had to stick to him, but his heart was unhappy when he thought of the next few months without Lin Bozhou. But when he thought of being with him, even the desert’s sand, wind, and snow were interesting.
Meng Huan was full of sincerity. “Take me. I will not wander around or give you trouble. I do not need any big arrangement; you can raise me with chopsticks. I can take care of myself.”
Lin Bozhou carried him into his arms; his arms tightened, strangling the lean body in his embrace.
His heart sank, sniffing the scent of Meng Huan’s ear and neck, his voice low and hoarse.
“Will suffer.”
“I’m not afraid.” Meng Huan’s answer to these words was especially firm.
What did he have to be afraid of? He grew up as an orphan, growing up alone to eighteen. He didn’t look too helpful, but he was still mentally tough…… Meng Huan thought to himself.
Lin Bozhou pinched his ear beads, his throat gently rolled, and he did not speak for long.
His jaw resting on Meng Huan’s shoulder seemed a little heavy, his sharp thin lips slightly pursed, his eyelids closed down, and the shadow of his eyelashes hid a heavy load of worry.
Meng Huan felt.
He seemed to be somewhat relaxed.
