Xiao Changyi did not speak.
An Jing continued, "My dear, tomorrow let us go to General’s mansion to see Meng Zhuqing."
The next day, An Jing and Xiao Changyi arrived at General’s mansion.
As soon as they entered Meng Zhuqing’s room and saw Meng Zhuqing wrapped up like a rice dumpling, both An Jing and Xiao Changyi were shocked; the sword wounds were more severe than they had imagined.
It seemed like there wasn’t a single part of Meng Zhuqing’s skin that was intact.
"When will he wake up?" An Jing asked Gong Jue Chen who was leaning against the bedpost with his arms crossed.
Gong Jue Chen glanced at Meng Zhuqing, who was still unconscious on the bed, before saying, "I don’t know."
It was entirely left to fate now.
An Jing understood, and her mood was very heavy. She walked over to Old Lady Meng, comforted her with a few words, and then she and her husband left Meng Zhuqing’s room together.
Gong Jue Chen also walked out.
At that moment, Tobanya was standing in the courtyard.
As soon as An Jing and her party came out, they saw Tobanya. An Jing and Xiao Changyi didn’t think much of it, but Gong Jue Chen, overjoyed, hurried towards Tobanya.
Even saying shamelessly, "Jade Jade, my love, I knew you wouldn’t hide from me forever."
Tobanya didn’t say a word but drew her sword and pointed it at Gong Jue Chen, making him immediately step back two paces.
"Jade Jade..." Gong Jue Chen’s expression was one of deep sorrow.
Seeing that Gong Jue Chen didn’t approach her again, Tobanya also ignored him and sheathed her sword back into the scabbard.
Seeing Tobanya ignoring him, Gong Jue Chen became even more sorrowful, "Jade Jade, we are husband and wife, and there should be no overnight resentments between husband and wife. A couple should fight at the head of the bed and make up at the foot of the bed. Shall we go to the head of the bed to fight and make up at the foot?"
Tobanya continued to ignore Gong Jue Chen and kept looking towards Meng Zhuqing’s room, but did not go inside.
An Jing followed Tobanya’s gaze back to Meng Zhuqing’s room and couldn’t help but say to Gong Jue Chen, "A twisted melon is not sweet!"
Gong Jue Chen looked bewildered, "Why should I care if she’s sweet? I only need her to be beautiful."
Gong Jue Chen disregarded An Jing’s reaction, looked at Tobanya again, and said with a cheeky smile, "Jade Jade, last night I climbed to your window and found you weren’t in your room. If you’re not staying at General’s mansion, where are you staying? Tell me, I can accompany you there."
An Jing: "..." You admit so honestly to climbing someone’s window, is that really okay?
However, An Jing was also curious and asked, "Wild Goose Jade, if you’re not staying at General’s mansion, where are you staying?"
Tobanya ignored Gong Jue Chen, but answered An Jing very respectfully, "In an outside inn."
Gong Jue Chen immediately asked excitedly, "Which inn?"
Tobanya still ignored Gong Jue Chen.
An Jing did not pursue further, seeing clearly that Tobanya obviously disliked Gong Jue Chen, who was the only goof constantly trying to get close.
An Jing simply said, "The Emperor wants you to stay in the Capital, not for you to be at risk. If you’re unwilling to stay at General’s mansion, then temporarily stay at our Prince Yi’s Mansion. Once the Emperor assigns you a mansion, you can go and live there."
"Thank you, Princess." Tobanya immediately responded with respect. Although her attitude was very respectful, her demeanor still carried a chilly air.
"Jingjing, then let me also stay at your Prince Yi’s Mansion. I don’t want to be apart from my love~" Gong Jue Chen grinned shamelessly.
