Chapter 341 Successfully Stayed
Qin Xiangnuan and Jiang Lin did not tell anyone that the deaf-mute man could speak and was a foreigner, and they planned to take advantage of the situation.
The foreign country had finally managed to get a person over to their side. If they discovered that he was useless so quickly, who knows what tricks they would come up with next.
Therefore, it would be better to keep this person here, which would save the foreign countries from having to worry too much.
"Just pretend you know nothing." Qin Xiangnuan accepted it well.
However, Jiang Lin felt unhappy when he thought that the other party had found someone based on Qin Xiangnuan's appearance, and he didn't want to see that completely different face.
"How are you going to report to others like this?" Qin Xiangnuan said with a smile on her face.
Seeing that she didn't understand his dilemma at all, Jiang Lin couldn't help but laugh. "Even if he looks a bit like you, he's still a man. Do you really want me to get close to him?"
"Don't be close, but don't show disgust either." Qin Xiangnuan said, "Don't worry, I will be by your side to protect you."
Hearing this, Jiang Lin pulled the corner of his mouth helplessly. Qin Xiangnuan was clearly addicted to acting. The men's clothes seemed to be nailed to her body. Jiang Lin had never seen Qin Xiangnuan in women's clothes.
Qin Xiangnuan was completely unaware of Jiang Lin's thoughts. She didn't know what she was thinking at the moment, and there was a smile on her lips.
"Nuannuan, someone is calling you." Jiang Lin tugged at the corner of Qin Xiangnuan's clothes.
Qin Xiangnuan seemed to be startled and looked at Jiang Lin in astonishment.
Jiang Lin raised his chin towards her, indicating that someone was looking for her.
Qin Xiangnuan turned around and saw the doctor standing outside the tent waving at them. Qin Xiangnuan couldn't hear what the other party was saying, so she just raised her hand and waved in response.
"I'll go first." Qin Xiangnuan turned around and said to Jiang Lin after seeing the doctor stop waving.
Jiang Lin stopped taking a step because of Qin Xiangnuan's words, and his cold eyes fell on Qin Xiangnuan. Unfortunately, the other party was striding forward and had no idea of Jiang Lin's little thoughts.
"Sir, the person inside has calmed down a bit, and the temperature is slowly dropping." The doctor simply wanted to communicate with Qin Xiangnuan about the patient's condition.
Qin Xiangnuan did not refuse. When Jiang Lin came over, the doctor was still talking, but Jiang Lin could not understand what he was saying.
Even so, Jiang Lin stood beside Qin Xiangnuan like a guardian angel, gradually fading the doctor's enthusiasm for nagging.
"Prince, I will withdraw then." Under Jiang Lin's 'protection', the doctor could no longer concentrate on talking with Qin Xiangnuan.
After the doctor finished speaking, Jiang Lin nodded slightly.
The doctor just said that the people inside were passing each other, so Qin Xiangnuan didn't turn around to go in. Even when Jiang Lin was about to step in, he was stopped by Qin Xiangnuan.
"It's not convenient to go in, let's wait a moment." Qin Xiangnuan said.
Jiang Lin responded with a "OK" and then stood outside with Qin Xiangnuan, like a guardian.
"Prince, Young Master?" When the people who helped to wipe the bodies came out, they were really scared to see these two people standing there upright.
"Are you done?" Jiang Lin nodded at him and then asked.
"Yes." The man held an empty jug of wine in his hand, with a suspicious blush on his face. If you didn't know him, you would think he had drunk the whole bottle of wine.
The man agreed and left. Jiang Lin called out to him from behind, "Have you found his family?"
The man in front paused, then turned around and said to Jiang Lin with his head down, "I'm incompetent. I couldn't find a single house nearby."
Jiang Lin nodded to indicate that he understood and then let the person leave.
"This person feels a little strange." After the person walked away, Qin Xiangnuan turned to look at Jiang Lin who was still looking ahead.
Jiang Lin also had this feeling. After all, the other party was the first person to discover the deaf-mute man and was so concerned about him, which made people wonder whether there was a connection between them.
"I will have someone follow him later." Jiang Lin said.
Qin Xiangnuan withdrew her gaze and returned to the tent with Jiang Lin. She happened to meet the eyes of the deaf-mute man who had opened his eyes.
"Your fever has just subsided, so don't get up." Qin Xiangnuan said without thinking, and then suddenly fell silent.
He turned his head and looked at Jiang Lin. Jiang Lin pursed his lips, and they both looked at the deaf-mute man.
The other party did not respond to Qin Xiangnuan's words at all, as if he really could not hear her, but Qin Xiangnuan understood that the other party just did not understand.
The person has only been here for two days and already he has so many flaws. I don't know why King Cheng was so anxious to bring him here.
"I don't understand. How can we communicate?" Qin Xiangnuan put the problem to Jiang Lin.
Jiang Lin blinked, looked at the injured person who had been silent, then looked at the bewildered Qin Xiangnuan, and slowly shook his head. No one knew what use King Cheng would have in sending such a person over.
Qin Xiangnuan glanced at the person whose fever had finally subsided a little. He had been huddled at the head of the bed since they came in. Qin Xiangnuan could even see where the wind was leaking.
"Jiang Lin, help him tuck the quilt in." Qin Xiangnuan said to Jiang Lin.
Jiang Lin couldn't believe what he heard. His eyes slowly widened, unable to believe that Qin Xiangnuan actually tried to make him sacrifice himself.
When Qin Xiangnuan saw Jiang Lin's expression, she realized that he had misunderstood what she said, and quickly explained to him with a smile.
"He just got better and can't catch a cold." Qin Xiangnuan pointed to the quilt that had fallen under the bed and motioned Jiang Lin to help him.
Jiang Lin looked over with suspicion, then looked back with dissatisfaction, "He can do it himself."
"Then tell him." Qin Xiangnuan said with a smile, "Or should I go and help him?"
Choosing the lesser of two evils, Jiang Lin reluctantly walked towards the bed.
The deaf-mute man took a few steps back in fear, his eyes full of horror, as if Jiang Lin was some kind of monster.
Jiang Lin's eyes suddenly lit up, because he didn't need to do anything, the other party had already pulled the fallen part up.
"You don't need me anymore." Jiang Lin shouted happily to Qin Xiangnuan.
Then he turned around as if nothing had happened and walked away from the deaf-mute man.
Qin Xiangnuan observed the other party's reaction the whole time. Normally, if Jiang Lin had some intimate actions towards him, the other party should be happy, but the reaction he showed at this time was completely the opposite.
This meant that the other party did not come voluntarily. Qin Xiangnuan lowered her eyes. Even if it was not voluntary, so what? He was already here with Jiang Lin, so he didn't come with good intentions.
"Nuannuan, there's nothing to do here. Let's not come here." Jiang Lin walked to Qin Xiangnuan and pulled her out.
He wouldn't even look back.
When there was no sound again, the deaf-mute man hugged him tightly on the bed. He had no choice but to find a way to stay here.
The fading bustle had nothing to do with him. Thinking that he didn't know when he would be free again, he felt sad.
