The Rough Hunter’s Little Lucky Wife Chapter 269 Urgent Matter

269 Urgent Matter
The brush in Yue Jiaojiao’s hand drew a long line of ink on the back of his hand. She deliberately let out a long sigh and placed the brush aside. “Why don’t you want me to?”
Zhao Zhan shouted a hundred rejections in his heart.
However, he stubbornly did not move. He only stared at the woman’s face, feeling wronged and a little pitiful. “I’m not very happy.”
Yue Jiaojiao’s heart was filled with joy.
This guy usually liked to keep everything at the tip of his tongue. Today, she would make him learn to say it out when he was unhappy.
It was on him for not recognizing the person on the piece of paper!
“But…” Yue Jiaojiao tugged at Zhao Zhan’s belt, her voice sweet and coy. “I’m already halfway through. I’ll feel terrible if I don’t finish.”
She seemed to be even more aggrieved than Zhao Zhan. “Zhao Zhan, just let me finish. When I finish, you’ll know how good I can draw, and how manly the person in the painting looks. To me. He’s very handsome and bold.”
“Oh.”
Zhao Zhan couldn’t argue with her, so he lowered his head and scrunched up his face.
Yue Jiaojiao’s body continued to move. Zhao Zhan’s arm held her waist firmly and he pressed the tender and delicate woman in his arms into his embrace, leaving no gap between them.
“You can’t draw anyone else.”
After a long time, Zhao Zhan finally let go of her reluctantly.
Their foreheads were pressed against each other. Zhao Zhan’s right hand was placed on the woman’s delicate neck, and he gently rubbed it. His tone became pitiful as he said, “Jiaojiao, must you draw someone else?”
Yue Jiaojiao felt a slight pain in the corner of her lips.
The trace of anger that had just risen in his heart was immediately appeased by Zhao Zhan. “I didn’t draw anyone else. Why don’t you look in the mirror?”
For the first ten years, this guy had relied on the spring water in the mountains to barely make out his figure.
After that, although he took a few glances at the mirror that Yue Jiaojiao had bought, he did not take it to heart. Furthermore, Yue Jiaojiao was not a pure and realistic artist when it came to drawing people. Although Zhao Zhan felt that the portrait was a little familiar, his uncertainty was easily misled by the young lady.
Now that he heard Yue Jiaojiao say that the person in the portrait was him, Zhao Zhan was stunned for a moment before the smile on his face gradually widened. Then, he immediately placed the brush back into Yue Jiaojiao’s hand. “Let me stay with you while you draw.”
Although she found it funny, she could only pamper her man. Moreover, this was the first time that the always-honest Zhao Zhan had shown such a childish side in front of her.
Even in the future, Yue Jiaojiao would still find a way to satisfy him.
The character under the pen gradually took shape. Zhao Zhan leaned over and looked at the painting curiously.
“The person you drew looks better than me in person. Jiaojiao, do you like the one in the painting or the me standing in front of you?”
Yue Jiaojiao put the brush down and waited for the ink to dry. She cupped Zhao Zhan’s face in her hands and looked at him seriously. “You’re not even one-tenth as good as you are in the painting.”
As she spoke, her fair fingers slid across his brow ridge. “The person in the painting doesn’t have eyebrows as good as yours. They are thick and strong, and they look very manly…”
He placed his fingers on the corner of Zhao Zhan’s eyes. “The person in the painting doesn’t have eyes as bright as yours too…”
The woman tiptoed a little closer.
“When I look into your eyes, it looks like you only have eyes for me…”
Zhao Zhan’s heart was beating wildly. Yue Jiaojiao’s eyes met his, and her fingers slid from the tip of his nose to the tip.
“Your nose…”
Zhao Zhan’s face was burning from the touch, and even his neck was red.
Yue Jiaojiao’s fingers continued to move downwards. Her gaze fell on Zhao Zhan’s lips for a long time before it slowly moved down to his adam’s apple.
Zhao Zhan’s neck was covered in a thin layer of sweat due to the heat.
“Zhao Zhan!”
As soon as the woman opened her mouth, Zhao Zhan immediately picked her up in his arms.
“What are you-”
Yue Jiaojiao lay on her back and looked at Zhao Zhan. When he leaned over, she said gently, “Of course, I like it more when you’re standing in front of me.”
Zhao Zhan felt that his heart was beating so fast that it could jump out of his chest. He lowered the hook of the bed curtain slightly, covering all the movements inside.
The night was long. However, the glory was limitless.
The next day, Yue Jiaojiao woke up late as usual. Madam Qin didn’t even need to prepare breakfast for her. After all, with Zhao Zhan around, who was bent on handling Yue Jiaojiao’s affairs, she really didn’t have any opportunities to help her.
“Zhao Zhan?”
Yang Dashan shouted at the top of his lungs in the front yard. When he saw Zhao Zhan, he quickly pulled him aside, “Have you heard about the recent events in other villages?”
Zhao Zhan’s brows furrowed subconsciously. He had a bad feeling in his heart. “What happened?”
“Now that Li Miao is three months pregnant, I brought her back to the house today to tell her family the good news. Then, I heard that in the nearby villages, a luxuriously dressed young man was looking for someone.
“I heard they went around asking and even said that if they confirmed the news to be true, they would give fifty silver as a reward.
“That’s fifty silver taels! Who wouldn’t be motivated to find the person?”
Yang Dashan’s tone was anxious, “Li Miao thought it was suspicious, so she listened to the situation that those people said and said that the description matched Jiaojiao’s.”
Zhao Zhan’s fingers tightened.
The news of Yang City should have reached Lin Chenzhi’s servants by now, but he was still searching high and low for her and had not given up. He obviously thought that nothing had happened to Yue Jiaojiao and believed that she was still alive.
“Zhao Zhan, you don’t have to hide Jiaojiao from us,” Yang Dashan expressed his thoughts.
“It’s weird enough that a stranger is in our village asking around. Even if the villagers don’t trust him, the fifty pieces of silver would be more than enough to share whatever they know.
“If by any chance someone is eyeing that money, regardless of whether it is true or not, we wouldn’t just stand idly by and do nothing.
“They said that the person they are looking for is from a noble family. They won’t be allowed to separate you and Jiaojiao because she’s already married to you. They can’t.”
“Thank you for telling me,” Zhao Zhan said in a deep voice, maintaining his calm expression. “Jiaojiao is not the person that person is looking for, but don’t worry, I will still be careful. After all, I can’t guarantee that those people won’t mistake Jiaojiao for the person they’re looking for.
“It’s a good thing that you reminded me about something today. Otherwise, it would be too late for me to regret it if I only noticed them when they reached Willow Village.”
