The screams outside reached the tent, and Su Wan couldn't help but frown.
She could tell it was Bai Zhiyi who made the sound.
As the saying goes, ugly people often do strange things. Who would have thought that a beautiful woman like Bai Zhiyi would resort to screaming to attract Wei Jingzhuo's attention? You really can't judge a book by its cover.
She glanced at Wei Jingzhuo on the bed and saw that his face was gradually regaining some color, so she got up and went outside to check on the situation.
Just as she turned around, her wrist was suddenly gripped tightly.
She subconsciously thought that Wei Jingzhuo had woken up. When she turned around to look, the man still had his eyes tightly closed and his thin lips pressed together. Even in his unconscious state, he still exuded a cold aura that kept people at a distance.
I still remember the first time I treated this person, he almost strangled me to death.
What's going on this time?
But she knew that Wei Jingzhuo probably didn't have any hostility towards her.
She first tried to pull her hand out, but found that she couldn't. She had to bend down and try to pry open the large hand that was tightly gripping her wrist, but she couldn't pry open Wei Jingzhuo's fingers no matter how hard she tried.
Even in his unconscious state, this man remained domineering. His grip on her wrist wasn't as tight as a steel band, but it possessed an unyielding strength.
Since Wei Jingzhuo wouldn't let her leave, and she couldn't pry his hand off, she had no choice but to sit down on the edge of the bed and wait for him to let go on his own.
Bai Zhiyi sat on the ground outside the tent, her hair disheveled, glaring angrily at the tent as if she wanted to glare a hole through it to see Wei Jingzhuo inside.
Seeing her fall so awkwardly, Lin Qingfeng felt a little apologetic and said, "Miss Bai, I accidentally used too much force just now... but the lord won't let outsiders in. You shouldn't try again."
Bai Zhiyi rushed too fast earlier, and he instinctively reached out to pull her back, but he didn't control his strength well.
Even Dr. Lin, standing nearby, couldn't help but feel embarrassed for Bai Zhiyi. Several times he wanted to go forward to help her up, but she scared him back with her icy gaze.
She fell particularly hard, scraping her face and leaving a long trail of blood on her once beautiful face. She didn't bother to wipe it away, making her look quite pitiful.
Now, Bai Zhiyi's hairpin is askew and her hair is disheveled; she no longer resembles a noble lady from the capital.
Feeling the gazes of those around her, she clenched her fists tightly.
This was probably the most humiliating experience she had ever had since her rebirth.
Not content with falling once, he fell a second time. Not only did he hit his face, but it happened in front of so many people.
In her past life, she married the Fifth Prince. Although she was so angered by those vile women in his harem that she lost her unborn child, those women were ultimately only after his favor. They would still show her, as the legal wife, respect on the surface.
However, after the fifth prince failed in his bid for the throne, she lost her former glory.
She thought everything would change after her rebirth. She traveled a long way to follow His Highness, but unexpectedly, Doctor Su appeared along the way.
The key point is that this Doctor Su seems to be quite close to His Highness. His Highness is injured, and all he wants is for Doctor Su to treat him.
She had originally planned to let Doctor Su stay, as long as His Highness allowed her to bear him children, she would turn a blind eye.
Now she didn't want to keep this Doctor Su around for even a moment longer; she had to find a way to kill him.
She staggered to her feet, dusted herself off, pulled out the crooked hairpin, stared intently at the tent, and then glanced at Lin Qingfeng again.
"Guard Lin, since you insist on not letting me in, I'll leave now." After saying this, she walked away without looking back.
Seeing Bai Zhiyi leave, Dr. Lin hurriedly followed after her.
Lin Qingfeng was somewhat unaccustomed to her change in her previous stubbornness.
However, Bai Zhiyi eventually left, and he no longer needed to deal with that woman.
Meanwhile, Su Wan, sitting on the edge of the bed in the tent, tried many methods and finally managed to free her hand from Wei Jingzhuo's grasp.
She had overheard the conversation outside, and she really hadn't expected Bai Zhiyi to be so persistent.
She couldn't understand why Bai Zhiyi, with her looks and status, would be so persistent in pursuing Wei Jingzhuo. Just as she was about to go out and take a look, a weak, hoarse voice suddenly came from behind her at the tent entrance.
“Ah Wan…”
Su Wan stopped and turned to look at the person on the bed. She saw that he had opened his eyes and was looking at her.
Her reflection was mirrored in those deep, dark eyes, and the light in his gaze transformed into thin threads that entangled her, preventing her from leaving.
She couldn't bear to leave like that, so she turned back and asked with concern, "You're awake. Besides the injury to your chest, is there anything else that's bothering you?"
The arrow wound in the chest is obvious, but there may be other hidden wounds that are not visible on the surface. In ancient times, there were no X-ray machines, so asking the injured person himself was the best way.
Although Wei Jingzhuo's face had regained some color, it was still very pale.
He didn't answer, but just looked at her quietly. After a moment, he suddenly reached out and took her hand.
"Except for my chest, everything else is fine..." His voice was low and somewhat weak.
Seeing his reaction, Su Wan quickly said, "You shouldn't talk anymore. Just rest. I've already treated your chest wound. If you have any military matters to attend to, I'll call Lin Qingfeng in later and instruct him to handle them."
Wei Jingzhuo nodded slowly, and as if sensing that she was about to leave again, he said softly, "Awan... stay with me for a while."
