They stay in contemplative silence, listening to Xin Liqin's mournful song, until it finally fades in with the sound of the wind rustling through naked tree branches.
Lan Tian runs his fingers over Wu Yun's silky fox ears, pensively. "Too bad there isn't enough water, I could really use a bath right now."
Wu Yun snorts against his chest, slipping his fingers between the gap between his collar to get at skin. "Uhm, me too, I love bathing with you."
His fingers trail down Lan Tian's chest, skirting over a nipple, his blunt fingernails dig into the smooth skin just to hear Lan Tian's breathless gasp.
Wu Yun wishes the situation didn't feel so dire, that they weren't in unfamiliar territory surrounded by strangers. He wants peace of mind to be able to indulge in Lan Tian's presence, his languorous kisses, his body.
He wishes he could stop running without knowing where he's meant to arrive.
Uh Oh, General Pei is losing his patience with Qiao Xiaojian running around giving orders when he isn't even part of the army.
Anyway, I sometimes struggle with writing block while writing this novel, because it can be a massive undertaking at times, and there are so many plot points I have to consider, and juggle.
To deal with that, I began writing something else, so I don't get discouraged and fall into a funk.
I've written a few chapters already, but I'll be posting them slowly.
It's called "Don't fall in love with the Male Lead", and it's quick transmigration, and very different from this novel. Check it out if you're interested ;D
