"Stop talking so much nonsense, just drink your medicine."

Shadow Six said somewhat dismissively.

Han Lingxi smiled gently. Ying Liu was indeed all bark and no bite. Then she took the bowl from Ying Liu's hand and drank the medicine in one gulp.

Han Lingxi acted nonchalantly, but in her heart, she was cursing and groaning; she was practically dying of misery.

Ying Liu stared blankly at Han Lingxi throughout the entire process. It was the first time he had ever seen Han Lingxi smile. Although she was wearing a mask, the small curve of her lips could still be seen.

"What’s wrong with you?"

Han Lingxi nudged Ying Liu. Ying Liu hadn't answered her earlier, so she couldn't help but nudge him.

"Ah! It's nothing, you rest, I'll go back first."

Shadow Six ran away, looking somewhat disheveled.

Han Lingxi returned to bed. There was still no news of the arrival of envoys from the other two countries, so it would be some time before she became Mi Hang's concubine.

She must have just been injured in an assassination attempt on Mi Hang. In her previous life, even when she was injured, she refused to rest and instead diligently guarded Mi Hang, which resulted in a hidden ailment in her waist that caused her unbearable pain whenever it rained.

Han Lingxi, however, did not share the original owner's plans. With her memories of her past life, she knew very well how unpleasant that hidden ailment was. She did not want to live like that for the rest of her life. In any case, she was essentially immortal. As long as she completed the mission, there was no need to wrong herself.

What worried Han Lingxi was the mission. As expected, it was not simple at all. There were two major problems. One was that she couldn't express her love to Mi Hang under her current identity, and she couldn't even let Mi Hang notice. Once discovered, she would either be driven away with her martial arts skills exhausted or be killed directly.

Another problem is that Mi Hang has too much prejudice against women. It's harder than climbing to heaven for Han Lingxi to win his love. In her previous life, he never liked that woman until the original owner died. Could he be gay?

Thinking of this, Han Lingxi quickly stopped herself and hypnotized herself, saying that her lover could never be gay.

As she pondered, Han Lingxi drifted off to sleep. She woke up early the next day; there was nothing she could do, her body's biological clock was too precise, and she couldn't sleep any longer even if she wanted to.

Normally at this time, the original owner would either get up to take turns guarding Mi Hang or get up to practice martial arts.

Han Lingxi had no intention of doing either. She needed to focus on recovering from her injuries. She would deal with the mission after she became a concubine, and she certainly wouldn't practice martial arts anymore, as she didn't want her wounds to worsen.

Han Lingxi read a book for a while out of boredom, and then Ying Liu came to bring her medicine, looking somewhat awkward.

"Liu Zi, can you ask the boss for leave for me? I'm injured and need to rest for a few days."

Han Lingxi told Ying Liu that she wasn't worried about the boss disagreeing, because when she was injured, the boss told her to rest, but she refused.

"What do you mean, 'Sixth Brother'? You have no respect for elders. Call him Sixth Brother."

Ying Liu said with some dissatisfaction, but in fact he was relieved that Han Lingxi agreed to rest. They were all worried about her injury, but she always insisted on being strong and wouldn't listen to advice.

"Six sons, six sons, six sons."

Han Lingxi said playfully.

Ying Liu was so angry he was jumping up and down, but he couldn't do anything about Han Lingxi. Looking at the lively Xiao Qi, Ying Liu was stunned for a moment. He couldn't take his eyes off Xiao Qi.

As Han Lingxi spoke, she felt Ying Liu staring intently at her and quieted down.

"I need to rest now, you should go back too."

Han Lingxi resumed her cold expression and said she was very annoyed that she had just started fooling around with Ying Liu.
