Xueying carefully carried Luo Lingyue back to the room in the Shen Mansion and gently placed her on the bed.
Then, he took out a bottle of precious Jade Dew Pills and placed it beside the bed: "This bottle of Jade Dew Pills can help you remove the remaining toxins in your body. Remember, take one pill a day, but do not use internal force in the near future. I hope you recover soon... Go to rest early!" After saying these words, Xueying seemed to want to say something else, but in the end he just looked at Luo Lingyue silently.
Luo Lingyue fell exhausted on the bed. She tried to wave to Xueying to say goodbye: "Okay, I got it. Take care! And... thank you so much!" There was a hint of weakness and gratitude in her voice.
Blood Shadow nodded, then turned and walked to the window. He lightly jumped up and flew out of the window like a bird, instantly blending into the endless night and disappearing without a trace...
Luo Lingyue was the only one left in the room. She lay quietly on the bed, her mind racing. Although her body was still weak, her heart was filled with warmth and gratitude.
She knew that without Blood Shadow's help, she would have a hard time getting through this difficult time. At this moment, she was determined to recover her strength as quickly as possible so she could better face any challenges that might come her way.
Thinking of this, Luo Lingyue leaped up lightly, like a dancing butterfly. She gently took off her mask, her eyes revealing a hint of deep thought.
She knew that if she couldn't eliminate the threat of Blood Shadow, she would be in perpetual danger. If her true identity became known, not only would the General's Mansion be implicated, but even the Duke's Mansion and the King of Qin would be affected!
However, although Xueying was a killer, he never killed innocent people. Those who died at his hands were all corrupt officials! How could she easily kill such a person?
More importantly, Blood Shadow's martial arts skills were far superior to hers. If she were to confront him head-on, relying solely on force, she would have no chance of winning!
Luo Lingyue sighed helplessly and slowly fell onto the bed. She tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep... Her mind was filled with thoughts, as if enveloped by an invisible pressure that made it difficult for her to breathe.
The next day, the sun had just risen, and the morning light streamed through the window onto the dining table. Luo Lingyue slowly approached, her eyes shrouded in dark shadows, transforming her into a cute panda. She slouched in a chair, picked up a spoon, and slowly stirred the porridge in her bowl.
When Xiao Jinghan saw her like this, he immediately revealed a sly smile: "Hey! What's wrong? You have dark circles under your eyes! Could it be... you have kidney deficiency? This... women also have kidney deficiency?"
Hearing this, Luo Lingyue stood up suddenly. She glared at Xiao Jinghan with a flicker of anger in her eyes. However, she quickly regained her composure and said to Xiao Jinghan coldly, "Open your mouth!"
Xiao Jinghan was a little confused, but he still opened his mouth obediently. At this moment, Luo Lingyue quickly stuffed the steamed bun in her hand into his mouth, and then forced a fake smile: "Xiao Shizi! You have kidney deficiency! Eat more!" After saying that, she also gave Xiao Jinghan a provocative look.
Xiao Jinghan was almost choked by the sudden steamed bun and could not breathe. He coughed and said incoherently: "You...you woman!"
Luo Lingyue, however, didn't take it seriously. She sat back down and continued to drink her porridge as if nothing had happened. Xiao Jinghan, on the other hand, shook his head helplessly and began to savor the steamed dumpling that had been forced into his mouth. Despite the awkwardness and silence, the atmosphere between the two of them seemed to become relaxed and cheerful.
Luo Lingfeng looked them both around, muttering to himself, "Huh? Why does it feel like Xiao Jinghan's eyes are filled with doting when he looks at Luo Lingyue? Could it be that... these two have actually developed feelings for each other along the way?"
After breakfast, Luo Lingfeng led everyone to bid farewell to Mr. Shen.
Mr. Shen was very reluctant to let them go and tried his best to persuade them to stay a few more days: "Sixth Young Master! Our Jiangning is picturesque and beautiful! Why don't you stay a few more days? That way, you can appreciate the beauty of Jiangnan and taste authentic Jiangnan cuisine!"
Luo Lingfeng responded with a smile, "Master Shen, you're so polite! I'd actually like to stay here a little longer, but unfortunately, my second uncle sent a message saying that my eldest cousin is suddenly unwell, so we have to go over and visit him quickly! I'm so sorry to have bothered you for so many days, please forgive me!"
Upon hearing this, Mr. Shen's face lit up with surprise. He quickly turned to the butler beside him and shouted, "Hurry, hurry! Go prepare a generous gift for our second uncle!"
Then, he turned around and said to Luo Lingfeng with a smile: "Sixth Young Master! You don't know, but our second uncle is a well-known upright and honest person! In the past, many businessmen wanted to curry favor with him and sent him various expensive gifts, but without exception, these gifts were all returned by the second uncle! But, hehe... our two families are different now! Since we have become in-laws, even if this gift is sent by the son-in-law and daughter together, I believe the second uncle will definitely not refuse it!" After that, Master Shen patted Luo Lingfeng's shoulder proudly.
Luo Lingfeng led his team away from Jiangning. Their destination was the garrison in the Jiangnan region - Nandu.
Before they arrived at Nandu, they saw a heroic young general riding a horse in front of them, followed by a group of spirited soldiers, who were rushing towards them.
