He was just worried that if something happened to her, he would be a widower.

His recent act of appeasement was merely a means to get revenge on her.

Yes, that must be it!

The moon hangs high in the sky.

Lin Yan slept soundly, but Xie Muqing couldn't fall asleep no matter what.

Not long ago, he had sneaked in through a dog hole in the wall, dragging his crippled body, intending to kill the woman in front of him.

But gradually, he didn't want to kill her anymore...

Now he's changed his mind; he wants to keep her by his side.

He wanted to make her fall hopelessly in love with him.

I'd be willing to do anything for him!

Even if he abandons her in the future, she will not hold a grudge against him.

The next morning.

Lin Yan got up early, carrying a dagger, went to the kitchen to get ten flatbreads and ten meat pies, and headed towards the back mountain.

It is now late autumn.

Many of the green plants on the mountain have lost their green color.

They changed into yellowish-brown clothes.

Fortunately, she had bought a lot of cotton in town last time and had her mother make a thick coat in advance, otherwise she might have frozen to death on the mountain these past few days.

It's difficult to find medicinal herbs and game in autumn.

It's been almost a day.

She only managed to dig up some plantain that wasn't very valuable.

It was approaching evening.

Lin Yan planned to find a clean cave to sleep in for the night, but unexpectedly found two wild ginseng plants near the cave.

She suppressed the surging emotions within her.

She gripped the dagger Xie Muqing had given her tightly in her right hand and carefully walked forward step by step.

Just as she was about to dig with her small shovel, having escaped unharmed, a scarlet figure suddenly rushed towards her!
