Seeing his expression, Xiao Daya knew she couldn't get the information out of him, so she quickly changed her story: "I...I...I was just worried about Madam Yu, because she seemed particularly unusual today, so...so..."
The more she spoke, the more suspicious it became. Xiao Daya realized she was still holding the medicine and quickly said, "Um... I have to go now! See you again sometime!"
The soldier frowned and stared at her retreating figure until she disappeared from sight before turning his gaze away.
Su Wanyan didn't stay in the bedroom for long. After taking the food in, she saw that Yu Nanqing still showed no signs of waking up, so she went to the main room as usual, dressed lightly.
In fact, the war had been over for some time, and the seriously wounded had passed the initial danger period. Su Wanyan now only needed to come and inspect, and lend a hand when necessary. The rest could be left to a few military doctors.
The patients with minor injuries in the front yard had rested for a few days, and many of them had returned to their military camps. Their physical condition was better than that of ordinary people, so they recovered particularly quickly.
Meanwhile, on the other side, in the bedroom.
Not long after Su Wanyan left, Yu Nanqing slowly woke up.
Seeing that Su Wanyan was not in the room, he sat up abruptly.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the breakfast on the table, but before he could eat it, he hurriedly opened the door.
Mingyu and Su Chien, who were guarding outside the door, hurriedly bowed and said, "Your Highness!"
Yu Nanqing ignored the two of them and strode out.
Su Chien and Ming Yu frowned slightly: "Master, Xiao Daya is in the front yard. She will definitely run into the prince in a while."
"Let's go and see."
Although I have a bad feeling, nothing should go wrong.
Because Su Wanyan was acting strangely today, Xiao Daya's attention was entirely on her. The door to the main room was open, but when she looked inside, she couldn't see Su Wanyan.
Just as she was wondering, suddenly, a tall and straight figure came into her view without warning.
In that instant, her amber eyes seemed to light up, and her expression unconsciously brightened with surprise and astonishment. She stood there, stunned, unable to believe it.
It's him!
It really is him!
She hadn't gone to the wrong place; that was where her savior was!
Even though Mingyu and Su Chien were following behind Yu Nanqing, she was completely oblivious to the glances they were giving her. At that moment, her eyes were only on Yu Nanqing.
She saw that figure enter the main room in the blink of an eye, and she quickly put down the medicine soup in her hand and walked up to it.
Her savior! Her savior! She'd finally met him!
However, just as she was getting excited, Mingyu and Su Chien stopped her outside the main room.
Xiao Daya's heart skipped a beat, but she didn't make a scene. She just craned her neck expectantly, wanting to see that figure again.
Of course, she couldn't see it; Su Wanyan was in a side room.
"Yan'er." When Yu Nanqing came in, Su Wanyan was changing the dressing of a critically ill patient, and there was a military doctor learning from her next to her.
Su Wanyan looked up, and a ray of light shone on his face, making his features even more handsome and defined. After a night's rest, his complexion had improved considerably.
She smiled and said, "Why don't you sleep a little longer?"
Seeing that Su Wanyan was busy, Yu Nanqing did not dare to approach her again, but stood at a distance: "I came looking for you when I saw you weren't here."
They hadn't seen each other for many days, and he wished he could stick to her every minute and every second, but Su Wanyan didn't seem to have such thoughts, which made Yu Nanqing feel a little awkward.
Especially since Su Wanyan is currently busy, his presence here seems so superfluous.
There's a sense of bewilderment, like not knowing what to say when you meet again after not seeing each other for many days.
"Since you weren't here, I came."
Su Wanyan looked up at him again, and with just that one glance, she couldn't help but find it amusing. He was as easy to guess as ever, and he couldn't hide his expression at all when he saw her.
Su Wanyan said to the military doctor, "Dr. Mao, I'm leaving you with this."
"Yes, leave it to me."
Su Wanyan got up, washed her hands, and took Yu Nanqing's hand, saying, "Come here."
Judging from his appearance, he probably didn't even have breakfast.
However, as soon as they arrived at the door, they stared at each other in disbelief.
Su Wanyan choked for a moment. How could she forget that Xiao Daya was waiting here?
Xiao Daya stared wide-eyed at Su Wanyan, then quickly realized what was happening and shifted her gaze to Yu Nanqing. She immediately straightened her posture and bowed respectfully, saying, "This humble girl, Xiao Daya, greets you, young master."
Her voice was melodious and pleasant, soft and gentle, unlike her usual lively and cheerful demeanor. At first glance, she appeared gentle and kind, kind and virtuous.
The moment the voice came out, Su Wanyan's brain went blank. Who was this?
Yu Nanqing frowned slightly, curious: "Yan'er, is this the new personal maid?"
"..." Su Wanyan was at a loss for words to explain.
Wait, isn't this the person he saved?
He doesn't know him?
Xiao Daya was also taken aback. She looked up and was about to speak when her gaze fell on the two people's clasped hands.
My heart sank suddenly. What was going on?
Why are their hands... clasped together?
Shinoda was slow to realize what was happening; she had never considered this possibility. Her eyes were wide open in disbelief, her mouth slightly agape as if she wanted to say something, but she couldn't utter a word.
Yu Nanqing was even more confused, her brows furrowing even more. If there was nothing wrong, why wouldn't she move aside?
He looked at Su Wanyan, who then spoke up: "Her name is Xiao Daya. She said that you saved her in Qingxuan City and came here to repay your kindness."
After Su Wanyan finished speaking, Xiao Daya finally came to her senses: "Yes, that's right. Does young master still remember me?"
Perhaps because of his anxiety, his voice lost its previous gentleness and composure, and there was a sense of helplessness after being hit.
Yu Nanqing frowned, then remembered that there was indeed such a thing, but...
The deep voice carried an air of authority: "I have made an agreement with your father that after rescuing you, we will have no further connection."
This king?
He really is a member of the royal family, a prince of the Great Jin Dynasty.
So... Madam Yu is... the Princess Consort?
Xiao Daya was momentarily at a loss for how to react. She didn't know what she was shocked about—was she shocked by the identity of her savior, or that they were actually husband and wife?
No, no, it's just that Su Wanyan hasn't told her about this all this time.
For so many days, she's been busy running around in this mansion. Do they all look at her like she's a fool?
How could she possibly accept this all at once?
No wonder, no wonder Su Chien always targets her.
Seeing her kneeling motionless on the ground with disbelief on her face, Su Wanyan took a deep breath and said, "The savior you mentioned is Prince Gong of the Great Jin Dynasty. I am his wife. I came to the East Sea this time to help him in this battle."
"I kept it from you before because he was in a dangerous situation and it was inconvenient for me to tell you. You can find out if you look it up. When the Great Jin and the East Sea went to war, there were rumors that the Great Jin commander-in-chief died in the gunpowder. How could I explain his identity to you?"
