Chapter 468 Jiji Extra (11)
Fortunately, Jiji brought medicine to treat the pain. He carefully took off Pei'er's socks, cleaned the wound with spiritual power, applied the best medicine he brought from the house, and finally bandaged it.
Xun Pei'er must have been tired and scared, and she didn't wake up yet, but her hands were tightly holding onto Jiji's clothes, obviously she was frightened today.
Gigi tucked her quilt and wanted to pull out her clothes, but in the end she couldn't bear it and sat motionless at the head of the bed.
While it was late at night and everyone was asleep, he carefully sorted out the cause and effect of the incident.
There is no doubt that the people who came were targeting Pei'er and the Xun family, not him.
Although the Xun family has a high status in the court, they also have many hostile forces. He has heard of four or five families alone, and each of them seems to be someone who can do such a thing.
This matter must be notified to the Xun family immediately, and everyone in the Xun family must be on guard. Since they can take action against Xun Pei'er, there is no reason for them to let others go.
Although the security in the capital is good, if you really want to take action, you may not have no chance at all.
When we get to the next post station, we'll definitely find a chance to send a message...
Thinking of this, he suddenly felt a sense of fear.
If he had really left Pearl to travel far away, wouldn't she be like a dish on the chopping board, being cut at will when she was alone at home?
He almost killed Pearl.
Not bad, not bad.
He stroked Pearl's hand and sighed softly.
…
In the morning, Pei'er woke up after a good sleep. She stared blankly with her eyes open before she remembered that she had gone on a long journey with her husband.
And then last night—
She cried out in surprise, only to find that she was safely back and her husband was sitting next to her.
It looked like he had been guarding for the entire night.
"How do you feel now?" Gigi smiled at her. "Come and drink some water. Your lips are dry."
"Oh, oh." Xun Pei'er drank half a cup in a daze before finally remembering what she wanted to ask. "What happened last night? I was kidnapped, and then what happened? I can't remember anything!"
"Yesterday, you turned into a heroine and fought them all off!" Gigi said seriously.
"Husband!"
"Okay, I'll tell you the truth." Gigi briefly recounted what happened last night.
Pei'er didn't feel scared, but she felt sadder the more she listened.
"I'm sorry, my husband. It's Pei'er who held you back." Xun Pei'er said, "If I weren't so weak, they wouldn't dare to attack you."
"I'm wrong, Pearl. It's my husband who failed to protect you." Gigi didn't explain to her in detail, so as not to worry. "You and I are husband and wife. From now on, I will not leave you for a moment."
Having said this, the two of them suddenly looked at each other inadvertently, and both looked away embarrassedly.
They have been married for more than half a year, but they have just held hands.
Fortunately, both of them are innocent, otherwise there would be some conflicts.
"Lie down for a while. I'll go find something to eat." Gigi put the pillow in her place. "Don't worry, it's not far. I've scouted the area, and there's no one else."
Xun Peier nodded obediently: "I'm asleep, I'll get up and help you."
As he was about to get out of bed, he couldn't even sit down when he screamed "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!"
"What's wrong? Where is he? Where is he?" Gigi thought there was another assassin coming, and looked around frantically, even under the bed.
"Ahhh——" Pearl continued to scream, "Help me apply the medicine!"
Gigi: “…” Finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Yes, I saw your foot was badly rubbed, so I helped you clean the wound." He said seriously, "You too, why didn't you tell me about it? If you hadn't fallen asleep last night and I found out, how long would you have kept it a secret?"
"Is this the point?" Xun Pei'er asked.
"So, what's the point then?"
"The point is, I didn't wash my feet yesterday, and you touched them!"
Gigi: “…It really doesn’t matter.”
Besides, it's not dirty.
"As for what you said." Xun Pei'er shook his arm pitifully, "I don't want you to think I'm a burden."
At this time, Xun Pei'er herself did not realize that her expression and words were full of coquettishness, or in other words, in Jiji's eyes, she was just acting coquettishly.
He desperately controlled his spiritual power to prevent himself from blushing: "Remember, you are not a burden, you are my wife, and the most important person on my journey to chase the stars."
"Okay!" Xun Pei'er finally smiled, and her heart settled down.
After Gigi comforted Pei'er, she went to the kitchen to look for vegetables and eggs, and then personally cooked noodles for the two of them.
In the past, Pei'er had eaten not only delicacies from land and sea but also the chef's finest dishes in the mansion. She had never eaten such rough boiled noodles.
But at this moment, she didn't know whether she was hungry or happy. She ate a big bowl of rice happily and even drank up all the soup.
Seeing that she gave herself such "face", Gigi felt very relieved.
He found some scraps of cloth and made a simple thick insole for Pearl, preparing to go to the county town to buy a new one.
It was also his fault for being careless and not checking carefully before going out. Pei'er had never been far away before, so she just picked up a pair of thin-soled cloth shoes to wear. It was normal for them to be worn out because they could not be walked for a long time.
To be honest... Pearl was much braver than he had imagined. After what happened yesterday, she was not afraid at all, and she didn't say she wanted to go home. She even looked like she was afraid that he would not take her with him.
Although life is small, it is very courageous.
After everything was packed, they set off quickly to avoid encountering those who were chasing them.
The two men walked forward for a while, bought a horse from a farmer, and rode at full speed all the way into the city of Luzhou County.
Luzhou County is quite special. The surrounding areas are poorly developed, but the county town itself is well developed, with many prosperous shops and people everywhere.
Gigi held Pearl's hand and walked forward, never separating for a moment.
The more complicated the place, the more likely it is to cause trouble. There are many hiding places here. If the person who comes here is not a fortune teller, Ji Ji will not be able to find the killer even if he has spiritual power.
"Husband, husband!" Xun Pei'er murmured softly from behind, "You can't hold my hand like this, everyone else is looking at you."
Gigi shook her head slightly: "Don't worry about them."
He knew what these people were thinking. They were just saying that he didn't know the seriousness of the matter and that he was obsessed with women, so he was flirting with women in the street.
What a joke! Look at how Chen Zhaozhi is laughed at every day, yet he is still living a happy life.
