Lin Xiuyan went all out to rescue Ye Qingwan this time.
Ye Junfei leaned gently against her and sighed softly.
But his gaze suddenly became very firm. He couldn't let her suffer this time for nothing; he would take care of the rest.
Although Lin Xiuyan was extremely tired, she did not sleep soundly.
Perhaps because her nerves had been under constant tension, she dreamed about her past life again.
That was the third time she had escaped from Ye Junfei's grasp, disappearing into the dense forest alone.
It snowed heavily that day, and it was extremely cold. When she escaped, she was only wearing a thin shirt.
Because her clothes were too thin, she had no heat left after she stopped running.
She thought she would freeze to death in the forest, but after she fainted, someone still held her.
A warm sensation spread through his body, and she felt much more comfortable.
She struggled to open her eyes to see who had saved her, wanting to repay their life-saving grace.
She clearly remembered from her past life that she fell into a coma before she could open her eyes.
But this time in her dream, she found herself with her eyes open, and then she saw Ye Junfei's worried face.
In her dream, Lin Xiuyan paused for a moment before remembering that in that situation, the only person who could save her was Ye Junfei.
She went to look for her savior afterward, but to no avail.
Later, after she fell into Ye Junfei's hands again, she told him about her former savior.
At that time, Ye Junfei asked her with a smile, "What would happen if you found your savior?"
Lin Xiuyan laughed and said, "If he were a young man, I would offer myself to him."
She didn't actually remember this memory very clearly, but in this dream, she could remember it clearly.
At that moment, Ye Junfei's lips curled up slightly, revealing a very strange smile.
Lin Xiuyan had never understood why he smiled like that before, but in her dream she suddenly understood, because he was the one who saved her.
In their past life, their relationship was almost irreconcilable; she hated him, feared him, dreaded him, and was terrified of him...
She never wanted to, nor dared to, develop any romantic feelings for him. When he spoke to her gently, she would tremble with fear.
Looking back on her past life now, she realizes that Ye Junfei's feelings were actually quite obvious back then, but she never dared to believe them.
"Xiuyan, wake up!" Ye Junfei's voice came.
When Lin Xiuyan opened her eyes and saw his handsome face, she was somewhat dazed and momentarily lost track of time.
Ye Junfei poured her a glass of water: "Have some water first."
Lin Xiuyan picked up the cup and drank all the water before she felt a little better.
Ye Junfei said softly, "You had a nightmare just now; you kept screaming."
Lin Xiuyan met Ye Junfei's concerned eyes. His captivating peach blossom eyes were full of tenderness, a tenderness she had never seen even in her dreams in her past life.
She could clearly see that the door that had been closed in her heart was slowly opening.
She chuckled softly, put down the cup, and hugged him tightly, saying, "Ye Junfei, we're both still alive!"
Ye Junfei originally thought that she might be in a low mood after waking up from a nightmare.
The hug came unexpectedly, yet it brought joy to everyone.
He hugged her back and said, "Yes, we are both still alive."
"Even if Ye Jingxian is incredibly bold, he wouldn't come to town to kill someone. We are safe now."
Lin Xiuyan rested her chin lightly on his shoulder, his breath filling her nostrils.
In the past, whenever he was near her, she could always smell a faint scent of blood on him.
Today, however, I smell a fragrance almost like orchids, warm and cozy with a subtle warmth.
This man, who has loved her for two lifetimes, is very powerful and capable, but he seems to be somewhat bad at expressing his feelings.
She said softly, "I know."
With her completely nestled in his arms, he felt nothing but the soft, fragrant flesh of her body.
She had hugged him several times in the past two days, but none of them felt as warm as this one.
Ye Junfei asked softly, "Is there anything that's bothering you?"
His question made Lin Xiuyan realize something: he was very hot.
She released him, took his pulse, and then reached out to feel his forehead. She stared at him wide-eyed and said, "You have a fever, and your wound has reopened!"
Ye Junfei smiled faintly: "I know, but it's alright."
Lin Xiuyan: "..."
It's burned like this, and they still say it's nothing serious!
Does he really think he's made of iron?
She suddenly remembered something else: "When you were first injured, you said it hurt a lot. Were you faking it then?"
Ye Junfei immediately leaned against her: "It actually hurts a lot, but I feel that as a man I should be stronger."
"If you hug me more, I won't feel the pain."
Lin Xiuyan's lips twitched.
She believed his lies!
By this point, she was certain that he had been faking it all along!
Even if he was faking it, she knew that his injuries were not minor and that he was genuinely running a fever.
She reached out and pushed him away slightly: "Let me treat your wound."
Ye Junfei naturally had no objections and obediently lay there.
Lin Xiuyan unbuttoned his outer robe, revealing his wound, and sighed softly.
His wound had not only reopened, but was now bleeding more severely than she had anticipated.
She skillfully re-treated his wound, and then went to check on Ye Qingwan and Wudao.
Both of them were seriously injured and had not yet woken up.
Although they managed to turn the tide and defeat the Xuanzi Camp this time, they paid a heavy price.
Lin Xiuyan sustained some minor injuries during her escape, but they were not serious.
Even so, she revealed quite a lot this time, so Ye Jingxian will be more cautious in the future.
In yesterday's situation, she had no better option than to do everything she could to save her life.
Fortunately, although they were seriously injured, they were all still alive.
That's enough.
While they were recovering from their injuries, Ye Jingxian was there shouting loudly.
Although the sphere that Ye Qingwan threw out failed to kill Ye Jingxian, it did inflict serious injuries on him.
After he was injured, He Tongyin made a quick decision: first, he had the army doctor treat his wounds, and then he immediately sent him back to the Prince of Pingnan's residence.
Princess Pingnan was in a good mood ever since Ye Jingxian mobilized the Xuanzi Camp to ambush and kill Ye Qingwan.
In her view, as long as the Xuan-character camp's troops were mobilized, they could easily annihilate either Ye Qingwan or Ye Junfei.
Not to mention, this time they had a better chance of winning because they were prepared to take advantage of Ye Junfei's group's lack of awareness.
