Chapter 51 Resigned to a life of idleness, accepting his fate and being taken care of by Ertai



"Alright, alright, Chen Nian has gone back, you should all go back and rest too."

Seeing that the few people were still lingering in Shufangzhai, Xiaoyanzi began to shoo them away.

Since Chen Nian is so badly injured today, she absolutely cannot undergo rigorous training. Therefore, she needs to change her strategy and try to minimize Chen Nian's injuries.

Just relax and enjoy yourself; let them do the rest.

She called out to Shen Nian so that Shen Nian could have fun, not to get hurt.

"Alright, alright, we're leaving. Remember to apply the medicine properly."

Seeing the girl's eyes darting around, Yongqi knew that Xiaoyanzi was up to some mischievous idea again, and he reluctantly agreed.

"Okay, okay, don't worry, you guys can leave now."

Little Swallow nodded casually, giving a perfunctory answer.

"Okay, let's go then. Make sure to apply the medicine properly."

Cining Palace.

"Niannian, why don't you just quit?"

Seeing the bruises all over Shen Nian's body, Qing'er felt extremely distressed. She gently touched them with her hand and made a suggestion.

"Ouch, my darling Qing'er, be gentle."

Chen Nian turned his head slightly and stood up, looking at Qing'er, and pretended to cry out in great pain.

"Okay, okay, I'll be gentle. Don't move around. I'll apply the medicine for you."

Hearing Shen Nian cry out in pain, Qing'er turned his head back and moved her hands more gently.

"Qing'er, I've already suffered this injury, I can't let it go to waste, I can't back down. Hey, you know what, that ball game was really fun, it's just a pity I can't play with it for long."

He lay on the jade pillow, lost in thought, rambling on and on about the day's events to Qing'er.

"If it's fun, then let's play. Just be careful not to get hurt. If we can't play for long, we'll play for a while and then rest. Don't tire yourself out."

Qing'er could hear the fondness and regret in Chen Nian's tone, and she felt a pang of heartache for him.

...

For the next few days, I pondered life as it was: getting injured, getting medicine at Shufangzhai, listening to Ertai's ramblings, his instructions, and remembering the precautions.

Enjoying melons and delicious food, the kind that Ertai personally serves you.

At first, Shen Nian wasn't used to it, but unfortunately, Ertai took such good care of her that Xuan'er and Ying'er, whom she brought along, had no chance to use their talents.

Chen Nian simply chose to give up; she couldn't stop Ertai, so she let Ertai do as he pleased. In any case, she was the one who benefited, while Ertai was the one who suffered.

If he doesn't mind, why should she?

Although she felt something was off, the scene at Shufangzhai was always the same, so she couldn't pinpoint what was wrong.

Xuan'er and Ying'er had long been shipping the two of them, and seeing how well Ertai was taking care of Chen Nian, they were even more satisfied and had no intention of reminding Chen Nian.

It won't be fun if they expose it.

They are slow-witted, so it's not easy to win their hearts. If you can't persevere, you should give up as soon as possible.

Those around Shen Nian had no intention of reminding her; they simply watched the drama unfold quietly.

Qing'er was the one who enjoyed the food the most.

The two people she most hoped for were developing in a positive direction, how could she not be happy?

Ertai took care of Shen Nian without overstepping any boundaries, which pleased Shen Nian's companions greatly.

After a while, Ertai took good care of Chen Nian and enjoyed it, without any complaints.

Their relationship also underwent a qualitative leap, becoming what Xiao Yanzi called best buddies, or at least that's what Chen Nian thought.

"Ertai, I want to eat pumpkin seeds again tomorrow."

Chen Nian had already given instructions to Ertai, telling him what he wanted to eat tomorrow.

"Chen Nian, how about we don't eat sunflower seeds tomorrow? Eating too many can cause internal heat. I'll bring you something else, okay?"
