Song Huan looked at Pei Yan, whose face turned red as liver and lips turned pale with blood rushing up his cheeks... How could this be called no pain?
Okay.
In that case, don't blame her for being rude.
Song Huan grabbed the left collar of his shirt and suddenly pulled it down with force... His pupils trembled violently and his hand stopped.
Pei Yan groaned in pain, the blood drained from his face in an instant, his teeth clenched, cold sweat poured out of his forehead, and his face turned frighteningly pale.
Song Huan couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.
Pei Yan's clothes were torn off in half by her, and most of his back and chest were exposed in front of her - his body was covered with scars.
Deep or shallow, new or old.
One by one, they pierced deeply into Song Huan's eyes.
It seems that Pei Yan has never received any favoritism.
He has a handsome appearance, but also countless wounds.
Ten years on the battlefield were just a few simple words to her, but to Pei Yan, it was a real experience.
Song Huan's heart felt swollen, as if something was blocking his chest, making him feel uncomfortable.
That's all.
It's not easy for this guy to survive until now. Since her life is now tied to Pei Yan's, she should be nicer to him.
"Are there any scissors in the house?"
Pei Yan's voice tightened: "What are you going to do?"
Song Huan: "Use scissors to cut off the clothes, and then treat the wound, otherwise it will be too painful."
The wound on Pei Yan's arm was not deep, just a shallow cut through a layer of skin, but it was very long, extending diagonally from the elbow and almost to the wrist bone.
The white undershirt was stained with blood and stuck tightly to his skin.
The inner garment had only been peeled off to the width of a finger from the elbow. This guy was tough on the outside, but Song Huan had no habit of abusing people.
Pei Yan's breathing was a little disordered. "In the medicine box, in the box next to it, there is a dagger."
A dagger is also okay.
Song Huan glanced at the hideous scars on Pei Yan's body, considerately pulled his clothes back on, and turned around to get the dagger.
Pei Yan's eyes darkened.
Song Huan was not very comfortable using the dagger. When he cut the clothes, he was afraid that he would accidentally stab Pei Yan again.
This guy already has enough scars on his body, and this is the only intact one. She will need to see it again in the future, so she can't add another one.
So it took Song Huan half an hour just to clean the wound, and then apply medicine and bandage it. By the time Song Huan finished treating Pei Yan's wound, the sun had moved down in the sky.
"Alright." Song Huan wrapped the gauze around it and tied a bow. "Perfect."
Pei Yan's mouth twitched: "Tear it down, it's ugly."
Song Huan: "...What's so ugly about it? It's so cute."
Pei Yan raised his eyes and looked at her coldly.
Death stare.
Song Huan blinked, "Okay, if you don't like it, I'll tie it again."
She opened it and sent an ugly lump.
Pei Yan looked at the ugly lump and nodded slightly, "This is still acceptable."
Song Huan: "..."Is there something wrong with this aesthetic?
At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door. "Master, I have something important to report."
Pei Yan said in a deep voice: "Come in."
Seeing this, Song Huan felt relieved. She finally had a legitimate reason to leave. "You're busy. I'll go back to Huichunyuan first."
Pei Yan nodded lightly.
When Song Huan left, Pei Chen was walking in. Seeing Song Huan, Pei Chen stopped and clasped his fists towards her, "Your subordinate greets the Madam."
Song Huan smiled and responded lightly, then walked out.
…
Outside Mingsong Hall, Jinyue was waiting at the door. The anxiety in her eyes only faded when she saw Song Huan walk out of the door unharmed. "Madam, are you okay?"
Song Huan looked at her and saw that she looked worried. He said, "It's okay. Did Pei Chen take you away just now?"
Jin Yue shook her head, "Madam, it was the Marquis who ordered this servant and Guard Pei to leave."
Song Huan: "...When?"
Jin Yue's face flushed slightly, "You...you and the Marquis..."
"Ahem," Song Huan coughed lightly, his cheeks flushed slightly, "He didn't say anything at the time."
Jin Yue: "The Marquis gave this servant and Guard Pei a secret signal."
"Code? What code?"
Jin Yue gestured and said, "Guard Pei told me this meant we should retreat. So... I left with Guard Pei."
Song Huan: “…” Pei Yan is such a scheming guy!
Back at Huichunyuan, little Jinle was pacing back and forth in the courtyard, looking longingly at the door from time to time. When she finally saw Song Huan and Jinyue coming back, she was almost exhausted, "Madam! Sister! The food is cold!"
Hearing this, Song Huan touched his flat stomach and couldn't help crying, "Ah, I'm hungry."
At Pei Yan's place, she only ate two mouthfuls of food, how could she feel full?
Song Huan immediately decided to heat up the egg feast, but it was too troublesome to go to the kitchen again. She turned her gaze to the copper stove in the room, and her eyes gradually became evil.
Song Huan used tools to take off the pointed lid of the copper stove, and then asked Jin Yue and Jin Le to find a large iron plate and put it on top... to heat the food.
Jin Yue and Jin Le were stunned by Song Huan's actions.
It turns out that the copper stove can also heat food...
Song Huan prepared lunch and dinner together. When it was time for dinner, she didn't let Jinle go to the kitchen to get food.
Song Huan went to bed early.
She opened the blocked system: "Come on!"
"Where did the original Song Huan go?"
Just as she sent the message, the system popped up a bunch of notifications - "The target "Pei Yan"'s favorability towards you has changed." "Favourability -50."
Song Huan: "...Humph."
"The favorability of the capture target 'Pei Yan' towards you has changed." "Favorability 0."
Song Huan: "...Hmm?"
"The favorability of the capture target "Pei Yan" towards you has changed." "Favourability +10"
Song Huan: "...What the hell!"
"The favorability of the capture target "Pei Yan" towards you has changed." "Favourability +30"
"The favorability of the capture target "Pei Yan" towards you has changed..."
"Favorability +..."
“…”
Song Huan was stunned after hearing all these changes. What was going on?!
"System, have you been infected with a virus?"
The system spoke only after Pei Yan's fluctuating favorability towards Song Huan was fully displayed.
"Dear, thank you for your concern. This system is very good."
"The above is the actual change in the favorability of the capture target "Pei Yan" towards you. You can enter the favorability interface to view the details."
Song Huan opened the Favorability page and asked the system, "Tell me what happened to the original Song Huan? She didn't listen to Pei Yan and took poison. I was the one killed by the men in black on our wedding day. So how did she die?"
"...Or, is she dead or not?"
"If she's not dead, then where did she go?"
Song Huan was not a pushover, but if the original Song Huan died because of her, she was afraid that she would never be able to live in her body with peace of mind again.
The system didn't reply, and Song Huan felt a little nervous.
...It can't be because of her, right?
No way.
Song Huan shook his head and said no, no.
How could she, a little cabbage that no one loves or cares for, have such a big backdoor?
System: "Dear, don't overthink it. The host is indeed dead. As for the cause of death, if you want to know, you need to investigate it yourself, or you can pay thirty days of life value in exchange for the truth of the host's death."
Song Huan: "...Why don't you go and rob it?"
Thirty days? She, who only had forty-eight days left to live, didn't have the wherewithal to do that!
Huh? Wait… Song Huan suddenly remembered that she kissed Pei Yan today and gained three months of health points…
She checked her health value and saw that it had changed from the orange-yellow forty-eight days to the tender green one hundred and forty-three days.
It seems like I have capital.
But, that’s too expensive!
Song Huan: "Give me a discount."
System: "Dear, this system clearly states the price, and it is fair to everyone."
Song Huan: "...Are there any other tasks that can earn health points?"
Her current task panel still only has a few tasks like kissing and hugging. If there are only these few small tasks, when will she have the chance to leave Pei Yan?
System: "Dear, you have a chance to trigger a random task."
Song Huan's eyes lit up, "How do I trigger it?"
System: "Random task, randomly triggered."
Song Huan: "..." Angry. Wanted to block it.
System: "But I can give you a hint."
Song Huan: "What hint?"
System: "To trigger the random mission, you must complete all the first missions first."
Song Huan: “…” Broken system.
Isn't this telling her that if she wants to live a good life, she must conquer Pei Yan?
Song Huan closed the dialog box with the system and opened the daily tasks.
The daily hug mission has been completed.
The task of "getting the target Pei Yan to reply with ten sentences" has also been completed and turned into "daily talk", with a health bonus of half an hour.
Song Huan: The system is such a stingy guy.
She continued reading.
The task of "Kissing the target Pei Yan" has indeed become "Kissing once a day", and the life value... is rewarded with twelve hours!
One kiss, one day to live?
Song Huan recalled the feeling of kissing Pei Yan today, but for a long while he couldn't remember anything except the smell of blood in his mouth.
The smell of his blood was too strong.
Song Huan tapped the system again: "Can I check the health of the Song family members?"
System: “…” Silence is golden.
Song Huan: "You're offline again?"
system:"……"
Song Huan: "Investment! Hurry up and get the investment!"
She remembered that in the relevant description of life value, there was a line that said people who were related to the original body by blood, if their life value was less than one day, then even if they were not with Song Huan, the system would push their life value information to Song Huan.
When Song Huan saw these small words, he rolled his eyes. The Song family would die within a month after the original body's death. This thing was the same as if it didn't exist.
But when Pei Yan cheated her today, she found that this little golden finger was still somewhat useful.
However, since it has nothing to do with the Song family, what happened to Pei Yan's injuries?
Song Huan fell asleep with doubts in his mind, but got the answer early the next morning.
An imperial edict came from the palace.
Pei Yan has been rewarded for his contribution in rescuing the emperor.
Song Huan was called to Mingsong Hall by Pei Chen and the young eunuchs in the palace.
The young eunuch in the palace said that the queen had an oral message for her.
Song Huan was in a dilemma all the way, not knowing whether he should kneel down when he got to Mingsong Hall... Should he kneel down after being told to do so? No, right?
Song Non-Indigenous Huan said she was very panicked because she had never seen such a scene before and she really didn't know how to deal with it...
Pei Yan was wearing a crimson robe today, which only made his complexion look even more pale. In front of him stood the eunuch who had come from the palace to deliver the imperial edict.
Song Huan took a deep breath before stepping into Mingsong Hall.
"Oh, this is Marquis Pei's wife? What a lovely girl."
As soon as Song Huan entered the room, before she even reached Pei Yan, the eunuch from the palace turned to look at her and said in a sarcastic tone, "A month ago, Princess Shangjia found out that you had arranged to marry the Song family girl. She threw a tantrum, saying that the Song family girl was of low status and how could she be worthy of Marquis Pei?"
"But today, after seeing Marquis Pei's wife, I finally understood the reason. A man as brave as Marquis Pei should be paired with a woman as beautiful as his wife."
Song Huan was ridiculed.
Her expression remained unchanged, and she even widened the curve of her lips as she smiled, "Eunuch, what you said is not quite right. At first glance, it doesn't sound like you're complimenting me, but rather like you're saying that Princess Shangjia isn't beautiful enough. If this gets out, I'm afraid Princess Shangjia will be unhappy."
The eunuch's face froze for a moment. "Madam Hou, you must have misunderstood. We don't have that intention."
Song Huan: "Everyone in this courtyard today naturally understands what the eunuch means, but if it gets to Princess Shangjia's ears in the future, I'm afraid I don't know how it will be spread..."
This time, the father-in-law with rice paper suddenly looked unhappy. The flesh on his face drooped and he no longer responded to Song Huan.
"We are here to announce the Imperial Edict and the Empress's instructions to Marquis Pei and his wife. Please accept the order."
Song Huan glanced at Pei Yan, and seeing that he didn't move, she didn't move either, and even straightened her back deliberately.
The eunuch's face suddenly turned stern, "Marquis Pei, we need to announce the imperial decree."
Pei Yan's expression was indifferent. "His Majesty, mindful of my contributions to protecting the nation, has granted me the privilege of not kneeling before him."
The eunuch looked at Song Huan and asked, "Does the Marquis' wife also have such honor?"
Song Huan turned to look at Pei Yan.
The guy had a calm expression and showed no intention of speaking for her.
Song Huan looked at the "Favorability +15" on Pei Yan's head and thought it was probably a fake...
"I, I haven't seen much of the world..." Song Huan lowered his head, and his voice suddenly became weaker.
The eunuch who announced the decree sneered and was about to ask Song Huan to kneel down to receive the decree, but Song Huan continued, "But I understand the principle of marrying a chicken, following the chicken; marrying a dog, following the dog. If my husband doesn't kneel, then naturally I can't kneel either."
Eunuch Zhao: “…” This woman relies on Pei Yan’s favor to act lawless, how stupid!
He wanted to see if this Marquis’ wife could still smile after receiving the imperial edict! ?
Neither of them knelt, but the imperial edict had to be announced.
No matter how angry Eunuch Zhao was, he could only return to the palace and complain to the emperor and empress, but he could not touch Song Huan in Mingsong Hall.
"By the providence of Heaven, the Emperor proclaims that Marquis Pei has rendered meritorious service in rescuing the Emperor, and shall be rewarded with ten thousand taels of silver, a thousand taels of gold, and one hundred pieces of Shu brocade..."
The more Song Huan listened, the brighter the light in his eyes became.
After Eunuch Zhao finished reading out the rewards, Song Huan felt a little dizzy. Pei Yan... was so rich.
He is literally glowing now.
"Also, the Empress has asked us to pass on a message to Marquis Pei and his wife. The palace has prepared a farewell banquet for Marquis Pei tonight. Marquis Pei must bring his wife into the palace."
Pei Yan frowned slightly, "Is this the emperor's intention, or the queen's intention?"
Eunuch Zhao: "It is the Queen's intention, and also the Emperor's intention."
Pei Yan said, "I understand."
"Pei Chen, escort Eunuch Zhao out of the mansion."
After saying this, without even looking at Eunuch Zhao's expression, he turned around and went into the house.
Song Huan: “…” Powerful.
She followed Pei Yan silently, intending to wait until Eunuch Zhao left before returning to Huichunyuan.
Pei Yan noticed her steps and a smile unconsciously appeared on the corner of his lips.
He walked towards the bedroom.
Song Huan was blinded by money at the moment and went into the bedroom with Pei Yan without realizing it.
When Pei Yan stopped, she realized that she had accidentally escaped from the fire pit and entered the wolf's den... Could she go back now?
"Come here." Pei Yan's face was gloomy and his voice was cold.
It seemed that ever since Pei Yan's sweet talk failed to win her over that day, this guy has never been kind to her again.
Song Huan: ...What a realistic man.
"What's the matter?" She was in a good mood.
Now that you are here, make the best of it.
Now that things have come to this, she might as well do the task.
Pei Yan stretched out his left arm: "Change the dressing."
Song Huan breathed a sigh of relief, "Okay."
She went to the table under the window to get the medicine box and found a pair of scissors in it.
It seems that Pei Yan ordered someone to prepare it in the medicine box.
"In fact, the wound has not healed yet. Frequent removal of gauze is not conducive to the wound's recovery."
Song Huan checked the "Daily Comment" task and looked at the "2/10" on it. He took off Pei Yan's coat and said, "I suggest changing the medicine every three days. What do you think?"
Pei Yan: "No need."
Song Huan spoke seriously, "...Changing the medicine every day is really not good."
Pei Yan frowned, "I'll only let you change once today, don't be so talkative."
System: "Daily Talk" — 4/10.
Song Huan slowly took off his inner clothes. "I'm just worried about you. It would be bad if the wound gets infected."
"Inflammation?" Pei Yan's eyes were like the sea. "Song Huan, from whom did you learn the art of Qi Huang? You have indeed acquired some skills. When Chen Ji returned home yesterday, he saw the wound you bandaged. Although it was a bit bloated, the bandage was very good."
"I have never met many people who could be praised by Chen Ji."
Song Huan calmly unwound the gauze: "...Experience makes a doctor. If you get hurt enough, you'll naturally learn how to bandage it."
