"Did he fall asleep?"
After finally sorting out his mood, Vino came out of the bedroom when he bumped into the lieutenant who was walking out lightly.
Looking at the blood in the other party's eyes, the lieutenant nodded lightly, and after a moment of silence, he said softly, "You heard everything, Your Highness Vino."
"I heard it all."
Meeting the slightly complicated gaze of the lieutenant, Vino nodded slightly, and waited until the other party almost passed him, before finally speaking in a deep voice: "Before this, you never told me about this matter."
"At that time the situation of the marshal had not stabilized, and I would not say it hastily, so as to make you more troubled."
The lieutenant stood still and turned around, looking into the other's dark eyes, took a deep breath and raised his head.
"I know that you have always had a knot in your heart, His Royal Highness Vino, and the Marshal has always known it. He never thought of making excuses. When I first started following him, he had nightmares and kept saying sorry in his dreams. , kept begging the person in his dream—don’t force him.”
Vino's pupils became darker, his fists hanging by his sides were tightly clenched, and his whole body was almost condensed into a sculpture.
Looking at his reaction, the lieutenant's eyes showed some sadness, and his voice softened: "I know you respect that teacher very much, but the marshal could have lived a good life, and he could be respected like you. Heroes who live in the light of the sun openly and aboveboard... "
Those who have already walked with the darkness will never have the opportunity to completely return to the light.
This point, they actually know better than anyone else.
"I will definitely find a way..."
Vino spoke slowly, his tone was extremely low, and he even showed a faint blood color: "I will justify his name and let everyone know that he is a real hero. I will bring him back to the sun, He will live a good life, he will live a good life, I promise."
The lieutenant didn't answer, just raised his hands to salute him, watched him enter the door in silence, and finally walked away quickly holding back his tears.
Wei Nuo pushed the door lightly, and Dana lay on the bed and fell asleep.
One of his hands was still outside for injection, the quilt was well covered to his shoulders, his brows were still a little weak and tired, and the air was filled with a faint aroma of cocoa.
Wei Nuo didn't disturb him, just walked over slowly and sat down in the chair beside the bed.
Only when he fell asleep peacefully like this, could this person finally completely let go of all his defenses. His expression was innocent and soft, his black hair was scattered on his forehead, and thin sweat was dripping from his pale forehead.
It seemed that the picture on the monitor was still in front of him. Vino's chest rose and fell several times before he finally regained his composure and gently wiped the fine sweat from his forehead. The palm inadvertently slid across the other's eyelashes, bringing a very subtle tingling sensation.
Dana seemed to feel something strange, subconsciously frowned, but still couldn't get out of the deep sleep immediately. He just tilted his head instinctively, frowned reluctantly and muttered in a low voice, don't make trouble, and shrank back under the quilt.
Almost vaguely showing the appearance of some very clean and soft teenagers.
Wei Nuo took a few breaths, and suddenly remembered what the lieutenant said when he left, and the extremely intense pain suddenly exploded from his chest belatedly.
It was like being stabbed in the chest by a dagger, and the jabs were stirred indiscriminately, the pain spread along with the blood, and every breath was a heart-piercing pain.
Swallowing the muffled groan hastily, Vino bent down silently, and leaned on the edge of the bed where the man was sleeping, his chest hurt so badly that he could hardly breathe.
They were just classmates and comrades-in-arms. He never tried to understand each other more deeply, and he didn't know what Dana was like in those most authentic and relaxed private moments when there were no missions and training.
Only now did he vaguely catch a glimpse of the boy from back then.
It's just because I'm better at using silence to protect my inner sincerity, and because I can survive loneliness and darkness more strongly, so I can no longer have any independent choices.
He may never have even had time to be asked, whether he is willing to hide from the darkness and bear the infamy, whether he is willing to kill his teacher with his own hands, whether he is willing to enter the countdown of life from the beginning of the mission.
For five years, how many things has this person carried on his shoulders, and when he was held hostage by him, what was he thinking in his heart
Cold tears fell silently on the corner of the quilt, leaving a small dark trace.
Finally, Vino couldn't sit still any longer, and his body fell powerlessly from the chair, and fell to his knees beside Dana's bed, pressing his forehead against the back of his hand.
He knew it too late, and he couldn't even guarantee—even if all the power of the royal family was gathered, would it be enough to save this person's life, and if it could be saved, how long it would last.
Even if he could really make the other party survive, he would be unable to make up for these too deep injuries after all.
After all, he didn't sleep well. Su Shi coughed a few times, opened his eyes in a daze, and was startled by the person kneeling beside the bed.
Feeling the weak force from the opponent's arm, Vino raised his head suddenly, and met Dana's blank and startled gaze.
"I'm sorry—did it scare you?"
Vino chuckled dumbly, tried to calm down his expression, raised his hand and wiped his face vigorously: "Your situation has been going from good to bad these days, but I was frightened. Take a break."
Hearing that he didn't ask about the incident he just found out, Su Shi breathed a sigh of relief, shook his head helplessly and laughed: "Looking at your expression, I thought you were here to inform me that the uprising failed..."
"Dana, do you only think about whether the uprising will succeed?"
Wei Nuo suddenly interrupted him with a warm voice, his eyes fixed on the other party's pale and soft smile, and his voice was vaguely hoarse.
He couldn't even imagine how to let go of those unwillingness and grievances, how to smile easily in the face of the approaching death.
Su Shi blinked, met the other's deeper gaze, lowered his head and grinned embarrassingly, and admitted his mistake in a good voice: "Okay, I know I need to take good care of my body, can I stop being angry?"
After several struggles and counter-struggles, Su Shi has already understood the law that the more intense the resistance, the tougher the suppression. In order for these two people to no longer stare at him like a prisoner, they still need to admit their mistakes with a good attitude and actively cooperate.
With the death-death gold medal issued by the system, Su Shi's mentality has improved a lot, and now he has shifted his goal to the new direction of preserving experience points and assisting the protagonist to complete the task perfectly.
The tone sincerely admitted the mistake, but found that the other party's expression did not show any warming trend. Su Shi was a little puzzled, so he was about to speak again, but his lips were suddenly covered with warmth, blocking what he wanted to say.
Vino kissed his lips, his breathing was heavy and rapid, his eyes were already black with pain.
This person is still laughing and apologizing to him with a good temper as if nothing happened—he has done nothing wrong, and he has endured all the grievances and injustices from the beginning, but there is only The gentleness and calmness that cannot see through the emotions, and even the slightest bit of unwillingness that I had glimpsed at that time can no longer be found.
There was no way for him to admit frankly that he was concerned about excessive surveillance, so he could only put all his emotions into that kiss. It wasn't until the opponent's body softened due to lack of air, and he fell powerlessly into his arms, that Vino finally calmed down a little.
Su Shi was gasping for breath, his usually pale cheeks were rarely flushed with blood, he leaned exhausted on the other's arm, coughed lightly and laughed.
"I understand. I was asked to think about this... My Highness, we haven't finished our business yet. When we build a new country, we have plenty of time to work on these matters of love between children. Why are you in such a hurry?"
His voice was a little hoarse than usual because the kiss had just ended, and it was a little nasal, making it especially soft and waxy.
That "My Highness" was brisk and gentle, but revealed an unexpected intimacy. When Danahan called him that, Vino's heart skipped a beat, and he instinctively held the other's hand on the drip: "Will you accompany me until then, Dana?"
"Maybe, you'd better move faster, I'm very impatient."
Su Shi smiled lightly and spoke, his tone still gentle, as if he was just saying a very common joke.
Vino already understood what he meant.
The pain was still lingering in his heart, Vino met his gaze, smiled softly, raised his arms around his neck, leaned over and kissed him lightly on the forehead: "I promise you, Dana. In three months, I'll tell you to see everything you want to see..."
"Really? So fast?"
Unexpectedly, there was hope of completing the task so soon, Su Shi raised his eyes in surprise, and looked at the determined Vino.
Those eyes were filled with the purest expectation and yearning, almost like a child who had never been touched by darkness, so clean that people's heart was filled with the most powerless bitterness.
Wei Nuo resisted the soreness in his eyes, raised his hand to press the top of his head, and rubbed it patiently with a smile: "Of course it's true, I promise."
The news of his death cannot be concealed. After these few days of fermentation, both the royal family and the people should have reached the limit of patience. Coupled with the secret guidance of the rebel army, a large-scale rebellion is happening in the past few days.
He has been planning for a long time, and now he has more expectations from Dana, and he will never cause any accidents in this matter.
The guarantee is undoubtedly useful. The person in front of him instinctively shrunk his neck, raised his head slightly to look at him, slightly raised the corners of his lips, and a contented smile appeared between his pale eyebrows and eyes.
Seeing his brows and eyes stretched, Wei Nuo's eyes were soaked with warmth, and he raised his hand to pull him into his arms.
"It will be soon, Dana, and you will be better soon. I will tell everyone about your sacrifices and protection over the years, and you will soon be able to stand in the sun and receive the praise you deserve, okay?"
Su Shi's smile suddenly froze in his eyes.
"No, Vino - listen to me, this is not what I want..."
