Song Ning hesitated. After all, this world reveres ghosts and gods. If she said that this was her space, Xie Linzhou would definitely think that she was abnormal.

Although she believed Xie Linzhou wouldn't kill her as a monster, she didn't know how to explain it right now.

"Don't ask anymore, it's safe here anyway."

Since Song Ning forbade him to ask, Xie Linzhou really didn't ask. As a result, he saw many familiar things here.

For example, the strange pens that Song Ning used before were placed on a shelf not far away, along with her account books, clothes, and some other things he didn't recognize.

The space is now larger than before, so for convenience, Song Ning had several shelves made and sorted the items, placing them one shelf at a time.

Xie Linzhou was a very clever man; he immediately asked, "Is this...your territory?"

Song Ning nodded: "It's mine."

Xie Linzhou had never believed in ghosts or gods, but the scene before him left him no choice but to believe.

"So... you really do have the protection of a Bodhisattva."

Song Ning: Huh?

Xie Linzhou remembered that Song Ning had told him before that she was protected by gods. She had said this back in Yanzhou City after she destroyed the gunpowder, but he didn't believe it at the time.

She had told him before that the Bodhisattva was sitting right next to her, but he didn't believe her. Now it seems that he was just ignorant.

He immediately grasped Song Ning's hand and said, "I didn't believe you before, but don't worry, now I believe that there are gods in the world, and you really have a Bodhisattva protecting you."

......

What is this person thinking?

That's fine, at least it saves her from not knowing how to explain.

"Are you hungry? I'll go make you something to eat."

I used the leftover soup to make a side dish, stir-fried two light dishes, and a small bowl of rice.

Xie Linzhou is still unable to move, so Song Ning moved a small table over and placed a few pillows under him.

Xie Linzhou saw Song Ning constantly taking things out of that door and was very curious about the other side of the door, but seeing that Song Ning was busy, he didn't dare to ask.

"Let's eat first."

Xie Linzhou ate something and took some medicine, then drifted off to sleep.

Uncomfortable sleeping on the grass, Song Ning went back inside.

The next day, before Xie Linzhou woke up, Song Ning quietly left the space and instantly grabbed the tree branch next to her.

She slowly moved to the side, gripping the branch. There was only one branch she could stand on, but luckily she wasn't heavy. If it were Xie Linzhou, he wouldn't have lasted more than two seconds on that small branch.

After moving around for a while, seeing that it was about time, I found a relatively fixed spot and flashed back into the space.

Xie Linzhou was still asleep. I checked his forehead; he didn't have a fever, so he should be stable.

She needs to find time to move to a safe place before Xie Linzhou fully recovers.

If Xie Linzhou saw her suddenly appear and then suddenly disappear, he would have to ask her questions again.

However, the two of them didn't have much to do in the space these past few days. Song Ning did some gardening, cooked, and kept Xie Linzhou company.

However, people cannot be spoiled.

As Xie Linzhou's health gradually improved, he became curious about what was inside the door, pulling Song Ning aside and asking her all sorts of questions.

After answering her questions one by one, Song Ning actually started asking her to teach him how to use the gas stove.

Every time Song Ning demonstrated, Xie Linzhou's eyes widened a little more.

Even though he had fought in battles across the north and south and considered himself well-informed, he had never seen these things before, and he kept exploring the room back and forth.

Song Ning, the teacher, is exhausted.

Song Ning was only wearing her home clothes at home. She lay on her big bed and fell asleep without realizing it.

She was in a daze, and it felt like something was choking her, making it hard for her to breathe.

He opened his eyes and reached out two large hands from behind, groping her body. Warm breath sprayed onto the back of her neck, and his breathing became more and more rapid.

Aren't you sleepy yet?

Tired? Xie Linzhou was incredibly excited. He was filled with curiosity about everything in the house. After finally managing to shift his gaze, he fixed it on Song Ning.

Xie Linzhou was injured before, so he was willing but unable to do so. Now that he is finally a little better, he is itching to get back to work.

"How long has it been since we last saw each other?" the man whispered in her ear.

"Don't you miss me?" The question carried a hint of seduction and ambiguity.

Song Ning suddenly opened her eyes and grabbed his flailing hand.

"What do you want to do? I'm still angry!"

Xie Linzhou was taken aback. Angry? Shouldn't he be the one who's angry? After all... this girl doesn't even like him.

Song Ning rolled over, and Xie Linzhou was about to pounce on her, but Song Ning kicked him away.

"We haven't even settled things with the Xu family girl yet, and you know I don't get along with the Xu family, but you still let her into the mansion to disgust me! Xie Linzhou, haven't I been too lenient with you?"

This was the first time Xie Linzhou had seen Song Ning so excited, and he was a little at a loss for words.

"You don't actually like her, do you? Let me tell you, as long as I'm alive, you'll never let her into this house!"

"No, no, how could I like her?"

"Then what do you mean? I didn't settle scores with you a few days ago because I saw you were injured, but you've completely forgotten about it. I'm holding a grudge."

Xie Linzhou felt instantly guilty. He... just wanted to annoy Song Ning, to make Song Ning...

"I was wrong."

Song Ning: ......

Was it a bit too quick for her to admit her mistake? She wanted to continue her accusations for a while longer.

Xie Linzhou slowly moved closer and pulled the person into his arms: "I will never like anyone else in my life but you. I'm just... jealous."

That's right, because Song Ning treats everyone else the same way she treats him. He's her husband, and she treats him even better than she treats Zhou Ling'an.

He admitted that he was greedy. He used to think that it was fine as long as Song Ning didn't like anyone else, but after Song Ning married him, he became dissatisfied and wanted Song Ning to have nothing but him in her heart and eyes.

However, he felt relieved the moment Song Ning proposed a divorce.

Fine, if he doesn't like her, he doesn't like her. As long as he likes her, that's enough.

"I really know I was wrong, and I won't do it again. Please don't be angry, okay?"

Xie Linzhou's face, coupled with his apologetic attitude and tone, was a bit too much for Song Ning to handle. After all, she was a human being with flesh and blood, and it was normal for her to be attracted to men.

Whether or not to forgive is a matter for later; let's enjoy ourselves first.

In Xie Linzhou's words, since we're just idling around here these days anyway, it wouldn't hurt to have some fun.

Xie Linzhou seemed to have unlocked his full potential, and for the past few days he's been relentlessly rubbing and kneading her.

Isn't it said that frequent sexual activity is bad for one's health? But she noticed that Xie Linzhou's health has improved quite a bit in the past few days.

However, her troubles didn't last long. These past few days, she went out every morning and moved to the side of the road until she finally reached a safe place.

Xie Linzhou's health had almost fully recovered, so the two prepared to leave.

But since we're here, we can't just leave empty-handed. We have to do something, right?
