"Your surname is Su? May I ask where you're from?"
Shen Qianxue moved lightly and began to chat casually.
Su Jinxia turned around with a light laugh. He had begun to have doubts and was starting to care.
With her back to Shen Qianxue, Su Jinxia said calmly, "Sujiawan is in Mingxi City to the north, which is very far from here."
"Then how did you end up here?" Shen Qianxue pressed.
Su Jinxia's voice lowered a bit, "Sujiawan suffered a severe flood eight years ago, and everything was submerged. My father also died during the disaster relief efforts. My mother took me away from the village, but she also died of illness along the way. After that, I wandered around alone, and eventually ended up here."
Shen Qianxue never expected Su Jinxia to have such a background. This was completely unexpected, as the girl in front of him was so optimistic and cheerful.
Perhaps it is through hardship that one can become so resilient.
"So how have you managed all these years?"
Born in a chaotic era, it would be very difficult for a frail young woman to survive in the world.
Su Jin turned around, a slight smile playing on her lips. Even though she was exhausted, she kept her back straight.
"Everyone has their own way of living, whether it's difficult or easy. It's naturally not easy for someone like me, but I don't want to tell outsiders about the hardships and embarrassments I've endured. Young master, could you please not ask?"
Shen Qianxue paused for a moment before apologizing, "I was being presumptuous."
His eyes were deep as he pondered the credibility of everything Su Jin had said.
Su Jin noticed it, but didn't pay attention.
A lie is a lie, and it's impossible to make Shen Qianxue easily let go of her doubts.
As dawn broke, the two had already left the valley and happened to meet an old man pulling a donkey cart on his way to town to sell grain.
Su Jin stopped the car and said that the two of them had been injured by wolves in the valley and hoped to get a ride.
The old man was very kind and willing to help.
Because the cart was carrying vegetables, there was only about a foot of space in the back for people to sit.
After Shen Qianxue sat down, Su Jin patted her head and said, "Your legs are so swollen, you can't keep them in a sling. Put your legs on my side, I can still walk."
Shen Qianxue frowned, reached out and pulled Su Jin down to a seat, then called out to the front, "Uncle, you can go now!"
As the car started moving, Su Jin's feet suddenly left the ground.
She glanced worriedly at Shen Qianxue's legs, her face full of distress.
"Miss Su, are you this kind to everyone?"
Shen Qianxue felt flustered under Su Jinxia's gaze and couldn't help but ask the question that had been bothering her. She felt that Su Jinxia's concern for her was unfounded.
Su Jin shook her head. "Of course not, only to you."
Shen Qianxue's breath hitched. "Why?"
Su Jin thought for a moment, but didn't know what reason to give. She couldn't very well say that she had known him in her past life, missed him in her past life, and was determined to have him in this life.
At this moment, the uncle in front burst into loud laughter.
"Silly boy, why are you asking why the girl is so good to you? It's because she's fallen for you and has developed feelings for you!"
Shen Qianxue...
Su Jin down...
Su Jinxia tilted her head slightly, her red ear tips betraying her turbulent state of mind.
Shen Qianxue seemed to have accepted this situation and stopped asking questions.
Upon entering the city, the two went straight to a clinic to treat their wounds.
"Doctor, is his injury serious? Will it leave any lasting problems?"
Su Jin was in the inner room separated by a screen, where the doctor's youngest daughter helped her apply medicine. She was in so much pain that she was grimacing, but she was also worried about the people outside.
The doctor replied to her, his voice tinged with worry.
"The superficial wounds are nothing, but the leg injury is quite serious. It needs to be taken good care of and you must not move it around, otherwise you will suffer in the future."
"It hurts when it's cold or rainy, right?"
Su Jin was somewhat downcast, but she couldn't avoid it.
The doctor sensed Su Jinxia's emotions and smiled, "Young lady, there's no need to worry. As long as you take good care of yourself, there won't be any major problems. You're young and full of energy, you'll recover quickly!"
The doctor patted Shen Qianxue on the shoulder, his smile seeming to say: Young man, you're lucky to have found such a loving wife.
Shen Qianxue wanted to explain, but then felt it was unnecessary. She sighed and turned her gaze to the window.
Just then, his subordinate Yang Jiaoruo arrived.
Their eyes met, and Yang Jiaoruo smiled with relief as she ran over.
Shen Qianxue glanced at the middle of the room, then shook her head at Yang Jiaoruo.
Yang Jiaoruo immediately understood and hid in a dark alley.
After treating the wound, the doctor prescribed two large bags of medicine.
The clinic didn't keep people, and Su Jinxia held the medicine in her hand, somewhat troubled.
Where are we going?
Shen Qianxue said, "I don't live here either, so I'll have to make do at an inn for now."
"Then... what about me?" Su Jin asked with wide eyes and a hint of anticipation.
Shen Qianxue curled her lips into a smile, a mischievous glint in her eyes, and her usually stern brows relaxed slightly.
"You're a free woman, you can go wherever you want, why are you asking me?"
Su Jin gritted her teeth. They actually didn't want me to stay!
"But I'm your savior!"
Shen Qianxue suddenly realized, "That makes sense. So what do you want? Gold and silver? Land and cloth shops? As long as Miss Su asks, I will definitely offer it to you with both hands."
"Talking about money is so vulgar. Haven't you heard? A life-saving favor should be repaid with one's body!" Su Jin laughed smugly, without the slightest shame.
Shen Qianxue gave a soft snort, "Where's your shame?"
Su Jin down...
"You're not going to get rid of me with a few coins!"
Shen Qianxue was in a dilemma. "What people seek in this world is nothing more than fame and fortune. If you don't care about these things, then I'm really in a difficult position."
