"It's alright now." Cang Mu gently hugged his wife and led her back to the campfire.
Then they took out the prepared dry rations from the packages they had taken.
Unbeknownst to Wan Ge, not long after the snake ran away, even more butterflies landed on it. Finally, they devoured the snake's flesh and blood, before disappearing in a wisp of smoke.
…
They had all finished eating, but the rain still showed no signs of stopping.
Cang Mu patted her head: "Are you sleepy? If you are, why don't you take a nap?"
Cang Mu took out a piece of cloth from somewhere and spread it on the pile of straw so that it wouldn't prick her.
Wan Ge wasn't actually sleepy, but seeing the expectant look on the other person's face, she obediently lay down.
How could this be...? She, a great general who fought and bled on the battlefield, become a delicate and weak little woman after arriving in Nanyuan and by the side of this man.
It seems that he is always very careful about what he does, as if he could get hurt if he is not careful.
She had suffered all kinds of injuries on the battlefield, and had teetered on the brink of death countless times. Now, she was being treated like a weak woman and carefully protected.
But! I have to say that Wan Ge really enjoys this feeling. Being loved and cared for by the person she loves, who wouldn't love that feeling?
"Wange?" Cang Mu saw that the other person had opened their eyes and was looking at him again. "Are you a little cold?"
As Cang Mu said this, he took out his cloak and covered her with it.
Wan Ge shook her head; that wasn't actually the reason. "Cang Mu, I'm very capable too, you don't need to worry about me so much."
He had experienced countless extreme cold and heat on the battlefields beyond the Great Wall, where there was always rolling yellow sand or frozen land for thousands of miles. So he was not so delicate and did not need to worry so much.
Moreover, the reason I followed him was because I was worried about his safety and wanted to help and protect him, not because I wanted to be a burden to him.
“I know. I know Wan Ge is very capable.” He knew that his beloved wife was a great general in another country, a remarkable woman who was no less capable than any man.
But... "To me, you are my wife, the wife I will cherish for the rest of my life."
She was his beloved, whom he cherished dearly, afraid she would melt in his mouth or fall from his hands.
Wan Ge cupped his cheeks, gave him a kiss, and then smiled at him.
Cang Mu is really great! Although sometimes she can't figure out what he's thinking, he only treats her as his most precious person.
Even someone who isn't considered feminine by others secretly longs to be treated like an ordinary woman by the person they love. However, the emperor always treated the original owner as a pawn, and she could never have had thoughts like Cang Mu's throughout her life.
…
Even though she wasn't sleepy, Wan Ge couldn't help but fall asleep with her partner's company and the sound of raindrops outside.
When I woke up again, the fire was still burning, but it was completely dark. Because of the rain, there was no moonlight, and the only source of light was the fire.
At the same time, Wan Ge smelled a very delicious aroma. When she walked over, she saw a wild pheasant being roasted next to her.
It was placed far from the fire source, presumably because Cang Mu thought she wouldn't wake up so quickly, and wanted to keep her away to prevent her from burning too much.
