Crossing the Palace Fighting Fox Harem

Chapter 361: Trusting Your Life

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty... Don't scare me, open your eyes..." Ji Anni didn't care about concealing her identity and just shouted "Your Majesty".

Looking at Long Mohan's gently closed eyes and the miserable smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he was about to die with a smile on his face, Ji Annie was almost scared to tears by him.

"The rest..." Long Mohan panted, as if he was about to die, and said painfully, "I'll leave it to you..."

"What?" Ji Anni didn't understand what he meant.

"My life is in the hands of..." Long Mohan finally opened his eyelids a crack and said in a mosquito-like voice, "It's up to you..."

After uttering these last two words softly, Long Mohan stopped moving.

The body lying in Ji Anni's arms suddenly sank heavily.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!" Ji Anni screamed, tears bursting out of her eyes.

Long Mohan in her arms had exhausted all his strength and lost consciousness. No matter how Ji Annie called out to him, he neither opened his eyes nor moved.

Ji Anni hugged him tightly and put her ear against his chest.

I had to listen to his heartbeat all the time to make sure he was still alive so I could continue breathing. Otherwise, I was afraid I would die before him.

In the misty rain, Ji Anni's face and clothes were already soaked by the rain and lost their temperature. In the heavy rain, wrapped in pain, despair and sadness, her face suddenly became hot.

Two lines of hot tears, completely different from the cold raindrops, instantly warmed her cheeks.

For the first time, she realized that she was so afraid of losing Long Mohan. She was not afraid of losing the emperor or losing her backer, but she was afraid that he would never open his eyes again and stop talking. Even if he just looked at her coldly, even if he just said a few cold greetings, or even cursed in anger, Ji Anni was willing to listen to him and his curses. As long as he opened his eyes, as long as he opened his eyes...

"Girl, what's wrong? What happened?"

Just when Ji Anni was so anxious that she didn't know what to do, Tang Jinglan's cry suddenly came from the pearl earrings.

Just now, Tang Jinglan heard the sound of water splashing, fighting, slipping and screaming continuously, and he had no idea what was going on. Now he heard Ji Anni crying and shouting for the emperor, and then he realized that something was wrong and something must have happened. But fortunately, he didn't hear the voices of the rebels, and thought that they probably got rid of the rebels. He was relieved for them, but also worried about them.

"Girls, girls, how are you? What happened?" Tang Jinglan, who couldn't see the scene, screamed anxiously inside the base, hoping that Ji Anni could tell him what happened as soon as possible.

But Ji Annie's mind was in a mess now. Apart from subconsciously hugging Long Mohan's unconscious body in her arms with both hands, she didn't know what she should do.

My throat felt like it was cut by a knife, and I couldn't make a sound. My eyes were sore, and even the tears were not enough to moisten my bloodshot eyes.

The sky above her head was gloomy and covered with dark clouds. Heavy rain fell mercilessly from the sky, washing her whole body and making her feel as cold as ice.

The Cang Gui rested at her feet, cooing like a dove and tilting his head to look at her worriedly.

Tang Jinglan's almost crazy shouting in her ears made Ji Anni dizzy.

But it was in this dizziness that she gradually came to her senses, regained her spirit, wiped away the tears in her eyes, bit her lip and made up her mind.

I leave it to you... My life is in your hands...

The last words that Long Mohan left behind kept echoing in Ji Anni's mind, lingering.

Leave it to me, leave it to me… She kept repeating these four words silently, and her arms subconsciously tightened a little bit, as if she was solemnly taking over the valuables that Long Mohan had handed over to her.

Precious, more precious than ever before.

This is the first time someone has given me something so valuable...

Ji Anni's heart shrank tightly into a ball. She couldn't tell whether the painful feeling was sadness, or unwillingness to accept her own incompetence, or perhaps it was a sense of mission.

It is a mission that cannot be shirked and must be undertaken.

Idiot, aren't you afraid that I can't bear it? Aren't you afraid... that you're not trusting the right person, aren't you afraid that I...

Is there no power to save you?

Ji Anni really wanted to punch Long Mohan, wake him up, and let him see clearly that he was just a weak little woman, but he was so irresponsible that he closed his eyes, said "I leave it to you", and let go of everything, and fell into a coma without caring about anything. It's really hateful to think about it. Humph, I will settle the score with you after you wake up. Thinking of this, Ji Anni has recovered her spirit. Ignoring Tang Jinglan's screams in her ears, she only said, "Brother Tang, I'm sorry, let's contact each other later", and decisively took off the earrings and stuffed them into her belt.

Anyway, Tang Jinglan's monitor was not working, so the only thing she could do was to yell. Ji Anni simply ignored him and decided to take Long Mohan to a safe place by herself.

"In short, Long Mohan, I will prove to you that you did not choose the wrong person. I can rescue you safely." Ji Anni's muttering to herself was both a promise to Long Mohan and a demanding requirement for herself.

She summoned all her strength, pulled Long Mohan up from the ground, and carried him on her shoulders.

The other person's heavy body was like a mountain, pressing down on Ji Anni's feet, causing her body to sway and tilt, making it impossible for her to move forward. In addition, the ground was muddy and full of muddy water, so she would slip if she wasn't careful, making the road even more difficult to walk on.

"In short, Long Mohan... I, I... I just want to... rescue you..." Ji Anni carried Long Mohan and walked forward stubbornly in the mud.

Although no one was competing with her, she seemed to be provoked by someone and was unwilling to give in easily. She was determined to complete this difficult task. She raised her head and said to the Cang Gui flying above her head, "The places nearby where we can take shelter from the rain must have been occupied by the rebels. We can't stay in this forest for long. We must hurry back to the inn. Cang Gui, please lead the way for me, please take me back."

Her eyes were calm and her tone was steady, not a bit confused. It was really rare that she could pull herself together and make the right judgment in such a short time.

The Cang Gui let out a long cry, as if cheering for her, flapped its wings and rushed into the rain curtain, breaking through the darkness and flying towards the woods ahead.

Ji Anni carried Long Mohan on her back, dragged her injured leg, stepped on the muddy ground, and walked forward with difficulty in the direction pointed by Cang Gui in the heavy rain...

Not only did the heavy rain show no signs of stopping, but it got heavier and heavier, washing away all the salty tears on Ji Annie's face.

Anyway, Long Mohan, don't worry. Since you think highly of me, Ji Anni, and entrust your life to me, I will definitely not let you down.

Ji Anni kept cheering herself up as she slowly disappeared into the rain-covered and foggy woods...

The next day, the sun was shining brightly, and the bright morning sunshine poured into the room. Occasionally, the sound of birds chirping could be heard outside the window, like a pleasant little song.

But just after the rain, the sky turned bright, and it seemed as if all the disasters had come to an end, and the light was waving at them ahead.

Ji Anni wrapped herself in a blanket like a mummy and curled up into a small ball on the bed. Her limbs were stiff and she couldn't move.

She couldn't move not because there was something wrong with her body functions, but because the other person on the bed was holding her tightly like a teddy bear baby, and even a shovel couldn't pry her free, let alone Ji Anni's ability to break free by herself.

Although she had been awake for a quarter of an hour, Ji Anni could only stare blankly, letting the other person hold her tightly, unable to move or make noise, for fear of waking the other person from his sweet dream. The most annoying thing was that Ji Anni actually found that she really liked watching the other person sleeping quietly like this, with an indescribable sense of happiness, as if... as if... seeing her own son sleeping soundly.

Yes, it’s my son!

Ji Anni would never admit that she looked at this man as anything other than a son.

Last night, under the guidance of Cang Gui, she had finally carried Long Mohan back to the inn. When she returned to the room, it was already dawn.

Ji Anni helped Long Mohan to the bed, and then she found that Long Mohan was soaked, and water could be wrung out of his clothes. And there was really no clothes to change in the room, so Ji Anni had no choice but to help Long Mohan take off his clothes and wrap him in a quilt. But Long Mohan still had a lot of external injuries on his body, so Ji Anni had to wake up the waiter's room and ask for medicine, and she applied it on Long Mohan before she felt relieved.

It was already daybreak, and Ji Anni was sleepy and tired, still wearing her wet clothes. She had no time to take care of herself, so she just took off her clothes, wrapped herself in a blanket, and took a nap on the side of the bed.

The moment before closing her eyes, Ji Annie was still thinking that if Long Mohan suddenly woke up and coughed, she must wake up immediately to take care of him.

But who knew that after falling asleep, I became confused.

When Ji Anni woke up again, she found that he was no longer by her bed, but was lying on the bed with Long Mohan.

Or to be more precise, she should have already fallen into Long Mohan's arms.

Although she was completely naked, she was still wrapped in a blanket. After waking up, she found herself in Long Mohan's arms. She couldn't escape or run away. The only thing she could do was to wrap herself more tightly with the blanket. Not only could mosquitoes not fly in, but even the wind couldn't get in. She even wrapped up her hair. If it weren't for her nose that needed to breathe, she might have wrapped up her face as well. In this way, she quietly waited for time to pass, waiting for Long Mohan to wake up and let her go.

I don’t know how long it took, but when Ji Annie felt a little hungry, probably around ten o’clock in the morning, Long Mohan’s eyelids finally moved slightly.

Ji Anni, who had been staring at Long Mohan's sleeping face, suddenly became excited. She opened her eyes wide and stared at Long Mohan without blinking, expecting him to open his eyes and say "I'm fine" to her.
