He waved to Na Jiezhe, and the two of them left together.
When only Yun Chunnuan and the unconscious Barbarian General were left in the room, her tears could no longer be controlled, streaming down in torrents from her eyes.
"Husband... Husband..."
She whispered softly by his ear, "I’m sorry, I didn’t know it would take this long... I’m sorry... From now on, I don’t want anything, just you... Just for you to be well..."
Yun Chunnuan sat beside him, applying the Spiritual Spring Water taken from her space, bit by bit onto his wounds.
Watching the wounds quickly heal, her heart was still not at ease.
She picked up the broken bowl with the soup and medicine still in it from the floor, gently lifted the man’s head, placing it onto her lap.
Then, she took a sip of the Spiritual Spring Water she just retrieved and kissed his dry lips.
Slowly delivering the spring water into his mouth.
"Husband, I’m back. Please wake up, don’t sleep, I’m scared..."
She didn’t know how long it had been; Yun Chunnuan’s eyes never dared to move away from the man’s face.
She noticed those long, dense, straight eyelashes gently trembling.
A pair of clear pupils slowly opened, fully reflecting the image of her.
"Husband!"
Yun Chunnuan’s little face was already tear-stained, her eyes swollen.
Seeing the man awaken, her soft voice broke in excitement.
He, however, smiled, looking up at the tear-streaked little face with rough fingertips wiping away the crystalline tears, "You still knew to come back, huh?"
He slowly sat up, embracing the trembling little body in his arms, "Nuannuan, I missed you so much."
Yelyu Lie blinked, not wanting to cry, shouldn’t cry, yet couldn’t suppress the overwhelming joy and excitement in his heart of finding what was lost!
He hugged her tightly, aware of how disheveled he looked at the moment.
She doesn’t like bearded men, he knew from the first meeting the disdain in her eyes.
She further dislikes messy men, he also knew.
But he had no choice in the camp.
Therefore, he didn’t want his little sweetheart to see him like this.
He held her, embraced her, his voice hoarse and trembling, "Sorry, I broke my promise. I said I would help you manage the shop properly, and those fields too, but for two months, I haven’t..."
Yun Chunnuan shook her head forcefully, "No, no! None of that matters! Husband, it’s my fault... I’m sorry, I’m sorry... You’ve been struggling all alone, right... I..."
She choked up, almost unable to speak.
Just tightly hugging him, firmly bound by endless regret and self-reproach.
He had lost so much weight; the previously strong chest she couldn’t even wrap her arms around, she could now firmly hold, feeling the rugged bones on his back.
He promised her he would eat well, sleep well, and take good care of himself.
But in just three months, he had neglected himself to become like this.
Yet, what could he do?
Whether during the month waiting at home or the two months on the battlefield, he probably felt every day stretch on endlessly?
If it were her, she would definitely go crazy!
"Yes, very hard. Only when my wife wasn’t here did I realize how long time can be, how dull life can be. How did I spend these twenty-five years of my life?"
Nuannuan... Don’t leave again, okay? For the rest of our lives, stay by my side, alright?"
His voice was almost pleading.
Sorry, he broke his promise.
He once said he would let her be free, whether like a bird in the sky or a fish in the water, as long as she was free and happy, he wouldn’t tie a rope to her feet.
But during this time, Yelyu Lie realized he couldn’t do it!
The days were so long, so, so long, as if there was no end in sight, he waited on this side anxiously, yet couldn’t catch a trace of her.
He trusted her not to leave him behind.
But, that kind of panic in his heart, how could he suppress it?
He thought about so many things...
Would she leave? With the space that can reach any place, would she never return?
Her world is so wonderful, so colorful. There are parents and family who love her so much, she must miss them a lot...
Once gone, would she never return?
Such speculation tortured him day and night.
Agony, yet nowhere to relieve it.
If it weren’t for Chu Qingguo’s sudden attack, at home, he really couldn’t have waited patiently...
"Okay! Okay! I’m not leaving anymore. Husband, I will never leave you again; we will be together no matter where we go!"
She wanted to look up at him.
But was firmly pressed into his embrace.
Yun Chunnuan glanced at the dense marks on the ground, seeming to carve at her heart with each stroke.
How could she despise him?
"Husband!" Yun Chunnuan forcibly raised her head from his chest, staring at the amber eyes hanging with crystalline tears on his lashes, "I love you! I love every part of you! Whether you’re handsome, haggard, disheveled, or bloody... as long as you’re you, I love it!"
"Your face..."
Yelyu Lie was staring at the little sweetheart’s sticky sweet face, but then noticed a mark resembling a handprint on her right cheek.
Instantly, he understood.
The eyes originally filled with tenderness turned dark and cold, "Na Jiezhe! Get in here—"
The deafening roar, not just outside the tent, but even the soldiers in the surrounding tents all heard it.
Na Jiezhe’s first reaction was delight!
Didn’t expect the Little Princess to come, and the General woke up immediately!
So miraculous! Is this the legendary power of love?
But the next second, he couldn’t smile anymore.
The gentle man beside him chuckled, "Whoever did it, call them to face the penalty."
