Yixuan sighed lightly, "You worry too much, Yixuan isn’t angry."
"Since it’s because of the Love Gu, please be careful and try not to hurt yourself again."
Dong Huiying didn’t know how to describe her feelings at the moment, but Yixuan’s attitude had caught her a little by surprise.
"Have you had breakfast?"
"I’ll go prepare breakfast right now."
He smiled, and as she watched his retreating figure, a feeling dawned on her. Once something changes, it seems like it can never return to the way it was.
Holding a small knife, she sliced deep into her wrist and then drank a bowl of soup medicine. The soup was a dark red color, made from Haoming’s blood.
It took effect quickly, a golden Love Gu worm crawled out from her wound. It was very painful, but she bit her lip and endured until she had extracted the worm, and only then did she breathe a sigh of relief.
After bandaging her wound and wiping her sweat-drenched face, she hurriedly dashed out.
She saw Shu Yu outside, lazily sitting in a wheelchair basking in the sun.
She approached cautiously, a bit anxious, and gently touched him.
Shu Yu opened his eyes.
She broke into a big smile, "Yes, it’s over! I’m going to find Yixuan!"
Her mood was joyous, and she eagerly needed to find someone to happiness with.
She bounced towards the kitchen, as it was noon.
"Yixuan—!" she said exuberantly, embracing him tightly, "I’m better, look, I’m not shaking anymore, and it doesn’t hurt, I’m really better, aren’t I?"
Yixuan smiled, "My wife is very impressive."
She nodded vigorously like a pecking chicken, then happily circled around Yixuan.
That afternoon, she spent with Yixuan, and at night, although it was Shu Yu’s turn to keep watch, the person who came was not Shu Yu, but Yixuan.
The two of them frolicked the whole night, and when both were drenched in sweat, Yixuan lay calmly in the bed, his tender gaze resting on her sitting atop him. His eyes were so gentle they almost seemed like an illusion, unreal and dreamlike.
She looked at him quizzically.
He continued, "Third Brother and Fifth Brother, they actually went to Pingchang Prefecture."
Her mouth fell open slightly, astonished.
After a long while, she panickedly rose from atop him. She put on her clothes, forgetting even her shoes, and hastily walked out.
"Hong Fei, Hong Fei! Accompany me, we’re going to Taihang Town, Pingchang Prefecture!"
Yixuan slowly sat up. He saw a strand of long hair in the bed, black with hints of purple. He curled his lips slightly, then quietly got up and tidied himself...
In order to catch up with Shujun and Yue Ning as quickly as possible, Dong Huiying didn’t take a carriage but rode a horse. She was accompanied by Hong Fei and over a dozen female soldiers, prepared for any emergency.
Under the night sky, Hong Fei lagged a bit behind. She gazed mesmerized at the small figure riding ahead of her, feeling as if in a world apart.
Once upon a time, the General had also led them , campaigning on the battlefield, charging into the fray.
A fire blazed in Hong Fei’s heart.
Whereas Dong Huiying’s heart was full of worry.
She believed Shujun wouldn’t take on a battle without confidence, so if Shujun dared to go to Pingchang Prefecture, she must have something to rely on. But Pei Yu’s brutality made her very uneasy.
