The Legend of the Guardians of the East Gate
Ch. 86 - The real face

The two days that Hua Mulan could only sit while leaning on Zhi Yuan's bed, the woman always yelled out from feeling so embarrassed, she said, and trying to bully Zhi Yuan so that the young man did not dare to remember that shameful thing, but Zhi Yuan was still a spicy-mouthed brat, making the two of them always quarrel, even the woman often clawed at Zhi Yuan , but Zhi Yuan , was still a hot-mouthed brat, making the two of them always quarrel, even the woman clawed at Zhi Yuan 's , make her away from the ethics and customs of noble women. Although it was always a fuss but every ant came into action the woman hugged the young man and bit anything near his lips.

And now that the woman had looked better, her lips were red again even though her face was still pale, and that night the woman was ready to return to her residence, she said, his face turned so solemn as he had just woken up from a crazy dream.

The two of them sat face to face at the dining table, Zhi Yuan placed down the badge he had snatched from the poison master's swordsman.

"My father has very good eyes, he can distinguish 6 dried herbs that look so same in just seconds, no one can match in the field of medicine," said Hua Mulan, his face looks different from the woman who met on the edge of the lake, the woman this time looks thinner and tired.

"this is my true face, I hid it when I entered this residence, this face will not survive in this place, and tears like opium for them, they would ask for it endlessly, so I always wore my haughty mask, and the longer it took over my soul, and without me realizing hypocrisy was rooted in me, but it is also a weapon that is so powerful, although at the beginning I was also very disgusted with myself," said Hua Mulan.

"mistress I don't understand the direction of this conversation" Zhi Yuan said.

"forgive me Zhi Yuan, that time by the lake I was so rude, if my father's eyes could see you differently and trust you, I would do the same, too," say that woman again.

The woman took out a bundle of cloth containing a small urn filled with poison, and placed it in front of her, and,

"a few days ago my in-laws gave this thing to me, and I received it without a single tear, this magnificent house full of hatred, she said, and those people have made me have to wear a cold mask every time I face everyone, because whoever I love is going to be taken abominably, I can't hug my own son from the baby, I even had to laugh when my mother was rotting in her bed, wasn't I a sickening hypocritical woman? tell Zhi Yuan, what suffering have I not felt? even the poison given by my in-laws looks like a tempting food because of ak-u.." the woman's voice occasionally stopped her breath stinged holding tightness in her heart.

"i'm so hungry right now, ha-nya. only the mask is able to save the people around me, there is no one I can invite to share my heavy burden all this time, I was so tired Zhi Yuan, so tired," Hua Mulan's cry broke while holding the packet of poison given by her in-laws, she said, cold sweat drenched his face again mixed with tears making the face look shiny.

Zhi Yuan closed his eyes perhaps if he had been nicknamed The Legend he would go away and not care, but now his heart felt a little sorry to see the heavy burden that the woman was carrying.

Zhi Yuan stood up and pecked at the woman's chest, several blue-colored divine symbols were seen coming out for a moment, making the woman breathe regularly again, Zhi Yuan stepped behind the woman, making her breath regularly again, Zhi Yuan took out a ring and hugged the woman from behind as well as placed on the woman's index finger, all of Zhi Yuan's attitude made the woman slightly freeze, and her feelings felt so light.

"What are you doing?" ask Hua Mulan.

"You want to be a cold woman, don't you? I'll help you, I used to be an expert at things like this, so if you really wanted her I'll make you her champion, when you fidget over your face, stand up, breathe in slowly and regularly, turn the ring on your index finger, do not frown or crack your teeth, the teasing will make you feel light to all the feelings in your heart, but it didn't last long" said Zhi Yuan.

"when will the tootokan disappear?" hua Mulan asked, her eyes still closed with her head held high.

"tea from the leaves of the dew flower, will make the tootokan last longer, the more often you drink your tea will get colder, and slowly tootokan it will be petrified, petrified, you'll be an untouchable woman until you ask me to let go of the tootokan" Zhi Yuan said, releasing her arms and standing near Hua Mulan.

Closing her eyes the woman followed all of Zhi Yuan's words, and in the instant the woman opened her eyes looking her cold face re-emerging, there was no sadness or excitement whatsoever.

"plakk.a slap slowly landed on Zhi Yuan's head,

"Who let you touch me? do you think I'm a stupid girl? seduction like this does not work against me, if you want to tease me you will never succeed" Hua Mulan said and left Zhi Yuan,

"Mayuan?aahhh...he has become a cold woman again, why can't such a woman thank you?" zhi Yuan shouted so angry

Hua Mulan stepped up yet still heard the cry of caci maki towards her from Zhi Yuan's room, and it was the first maki caci for her from a man, and Hua Mulan greeted her with a small but beautiful and meaningful smile, a smile that thrills her own heart, a smile that she never gave to anyone.

Zhi Yuan simply froze in front of a badge that had many cavities, eyes narrowed and observed the small badge.

"What are you hiding so many victims?" muttered the young man, as it had only appeared a few days more than a hundred lives had been lost because of him.
