Without the help of "favorability", Song Huan was indeed panicked for a moment, but it was only a moment.
Didn't the system say before that Pei Yan's affection for her was now over 90%? Although the results of this kind of data analysis were subject to significant fluctuations... the results had only just come out, so they should be able to hold up for a while.
In other words, Pei Yan may have some vague feelings for her now, and is willing to pamper her for the time being.
As for whether Pei Yan will change his mind after meeting the original heroine in the book...we'll talk about it later.
All men are pigs. Maybe before that time comes, this guy's mind will change.
After figuring this out, Song Huan straightened his chest and calmly accepted Pei Yan's sudden flirtation...well, actually, not really.
Song Huan's eyes dodged, not daring to look at Pei Yan, and he said instead, "Saving people is the most important thing. I won't bother you here anymore."
Of the thirty-six strategies, running away is the best. After she said that, she walked past Pei Yan without even looking away.
If Song Huan wanted to leave, Pei Yan naturally wouldn't stay either. What he had just said wasn't a lie. After leaving the central army tent, he and Chen Ji returned together.
When he passed by the couple's tent, he thought of Song Huan.
It took her three hours of bumpy ride on the road before she arrived at the military camp. Unexpectedly, he scared everyone in the army as soon as she arrived... So, Pei Yan wanted to ask Madam Chen Ji to make some delicious food and bring it back to Song Huan.
However, he didn't expect that Song Huan would find Madam Chen Ji before him. This woman... dared to run around as soon as she arrived at the army. She was really brave.
Pei Yan's eyes suddenly became sharper. He looked towards the screen and said in a deep voice, "Chen Ji, go to my tent and wait for me in an hour."
"Yes, Master, I obey your orders."
The person behind the screen, who seemed to be in a hurry, stopped immediately. Chen Ji couldn't help but sigh until he saw Pei Yan leaving the tent.
He and Rui Niang treated Jinzhi's injury together. He could tell at a glance how and why the wound was torn. It was obvious... that the girl had deliberately used force to cause the wound to open. She controlled the strength very well, and only a little bleeding occurred. She just needed to apply medicine and bandage it again.
"Jinzhi, why are you doing this?"
After Chen Ji finished speaking, he glanced at his wife again and said, "Mrs. Rui, you too, are making trouble with this girl."
Mrs. Chen had re-bandaged Jinzhi's wound and helped Jinzhi lie down on the bed.
Upon hearing Chen Ji's words, Madam Chen's expression remained unchanged. She said calmly, "Jinzhi only has this one thought. I've tried to persuade her, but she's stubborn and won't listen. What else can I do?"
As she spoke, she covered Jinzhi with the quilt, then stood up and looked at her husband. "Besides, if I didn't help Jinzhi in that situation just now, would I have to expose her in front of the Marquis' wife?"
"Master, Master's Wife..." Jinzhi spoke weakly, a layer of mist in her eyes: "Don't quarrel for Jinzhi. Jinzhi knows...what I did was wrong...but even if it was wrong, Jinzhi...still wanted to...give it a try..."
"Okay, Jinzhi, don't pay any attention to your master." Madam Chen comforted her, "I think the Marquis's wife is easy to talk to. Don't worry. Wait until your injuries are healed. Then go talk to her about you and the Marquis in a few days. Maybe..."
"Nothing to say!" Chen Ji swung his sleeves and said angrily, "What could possibly happen between Jinzhi and the Marquis? Rui Niang, why are you so confused?"
"Why do you think the master asked me to go to his tent just now? I'm afraid he wants to punish Jinzhi!"
"What's the punishment?" Mrs. Chen showed a trace of worry on her face. "Don't make it sound so serious..."
Chen Ji looked at Jinzhi with a look of disappointment. He and Rui Niang had been married for many years but had no children, so he raised this girl as his own daughter.
If she hadn't been possessed by evil spirits and committed such a mistake, he would have found a young man with good character for her in the future, and her life would have been good. But this girl just wanted to have the wrong person...
"Rui Niang, you think too simply."
Chen Ji put his hands behind his back, his face full of worry: "You don't know how much trouble Jinzhi has caused this time..."
When Mrs. Chen saw Chen Ji like this, she was speechless for a moment.
Upon hearing this, Jinzhi's face turned pale. She bit her lower lip and said, "Master, Master's Wife, if the Marquis... blames you, Jinzhi... will bear the responsibility alone."
"I only ask Master to help Jinzhi one more time... so that Jinzhi can see the Marquis again..."
Chen Ji looked at Jinzhi lying weakly on the sickbed and was silent for a long time.
When he spoke again, he seemed to have aged a lot. "You and I are master and disciple. I will help you in any way I can."
"Jinzhi, thank you, Master."
…
Song Huan left the tent to avoid Pei Yan, but she didn't expect that this guy would come out right after her.
However, there were many guards on the way back. Pei Yan kept a cold face all the way and didn't say anything to Song Huan.
Song Huan's heart was in a state of tension, and his pace, which had originally been intended to be a walk around, became more regular.
The sky turned blue-gray and night fell quietly.
Song Huan returned to the tent obediently.
The layout of Song Huan's tent was similar to that of Chen Ji and his wife. After entering, there was a wooden carved screen facing the door, isolating the bed behind the screen.
On the left and right sides of the tent, there was a low couch and a small table for eating and drinking tea on one side, and a table and chairs for reading and writing on the other side, on which were placed pens, inkstones, paper and some books.
However, after Song Huan walked over the screen, she found that her bed was much wider than that of Chen Ji and his wife, and it was covered with a thick wool blanket, which looked comfortable and soft just by looking at it.
Song Huan's eyes curved. She had walked so far in vain but hadn't eaten a single bite. Now she just wanted to lie down on the bed and have a good sleep.
But the sound of footsteps coming from far behind forced Song Huan to perk up.
She walked out from behind the screen and winked and smiled at Pei Yan who was walking towards her: "My Lord, don't you have any official business to attend to?"
Pei Yan said calmly, "I have nothing to do at the moment."
Song Huan asked again: "Are you tired after a busy day? Do you want to take a break?"
Hearing the word "rest", Pei Yan looked at Song Huan with a deep gaze: "I am not tired, I don't need to rest."
The smile on Song Huan's face faded a little, but she still persisted, her expression suddenly becoming delicate: "But... I'm tired, Lord, can you let me rest for a while?"
Pei Yan stared at her: "Madam, are you tired?"
Song Huan nodded.
Pei Yan: "Since you are tired, take a good rest."
Song Huan breathed a sigh of relief and was about to order Pei Yan to leave, but before she could say a word, she was suddenly picked up by Pei Yan - she quickly pursed her lips to prevent herself from screaming.
"What are you doing!" Song Huan asked Pei Yan in a low voice.
A bunch of yellow waste couldn't help but flood my mind. It wasn't even dark yet. Could this guy want it?
However, events proved that Song Huan was overthinking.
Pei Yan carried the person to the bed, gently put her down, covered her with a quilt, and then left the bed.
He said with a serious face, "Don't overthink it, just get some rest. The army eats later than the people at home. I'll wake you up after they bring the food."
After saying that, Pei Yan turned around and left without looking back.
Song Huan: "...Hmm?"
Is she just a few steps away?
Pei Yan went outside.
Song Huan could vaguely see his figure through the gap in the wooden screen. He was bent over the table, writing or drawing something.
She was really tired, and her eyelids closed unconsciously as she watched.
Not long after Song Huan fell asleep, Pei Yan got up from the desk and came to the bed.
The little woman on the bed had scattered black hair, a palm-sized face that was white and tender, and red lips that were so bright and tempting that people wanted to bite them when they saw them.
Pei Yan sat on the edge of the bed... and reached out to tuck the corner of the quilt that Song Huan had kicked away.
This woman is so restless when she sleeps.
…
After a deep sleep, when Song Huan woke up, Pei Yan was no longer in the tent. Only Jin Yue was guarding him on the low couch outside.
Hearing the sound of Song Huan getting up, Jin Yue hurried over, "Madam, you're awake."
Song Huan had just woken up and was still a little confused.
"Yeah." She replied softly, "What time is it?"
Jin Yue said, "It's just past the evening hour. Dinner has just been served. Madam, would you like some?"
Song Huan waved his hand, "Later."
She slept for more than an hour and didn't feel as hungry anymore.
But she thought for a moment and asked again: "Jinyue, have you eaten?"
Jin Yue shook her head slightly.
How could she have dinner first if the lady hadn’t eaten yet?
Song Huan smiled at her: "Then let's eat together now. It's cold and the food will get cold easily."
Jin Yue is a very nice person, with a calm and good temper, but some of her ideas are deeply rooted. Song Huan has tried to change them several times, but to no avail.
As soon as she left the bed, Song Huan felt a chill. She hugged her cloak tightly around her body and walked towards the low couch, muttering, "When will it get warmer in Ning County..."
"It won't get warmer until April." Jinyue had lived in Ning County for seven years and was very familiar with the weather. "Spring in Ning County is very short. Although it gets warm in April, it will be unbearably hot in May. I'm afraid Madam will miss winter by then."
"No, no." Song Huan sat on the low couch, "I'll just want big ice cubes then."
Jin Yue pursed her lips and smiled, "Madam, you are right."
As they were talking, a voice suddenly came from outside the tent: "Madam, Doctor Gu wants to see you."
Doctor Gu?
Song Huan looked at Jin Yue in confusion. Who was this person? She had never heard of him.
Jin Yue said, "It's Sister Rui Niang. The people in the army respect her and call her Doctor Gu."
Song Huan understood. Gu Rui Niang had been practicing medicine and saving lives in the army with Chen Ji for many years, so she must have some reputation.
Song Huan said, "Please come in."
Jin Yue agreed and went outside the tent to invite Gu Ruiniang in.
Song Huan looked up and found that Gu Ruiniang had changed her clothes on purpose. It seemed... she had something to say to her.
She curled her lips slightly, stood up and said with a smile, "I was wondering who Doctor Gu was, but it turned out to be you, Madam Chen. It was too abrupt for me to visit you in your tent this afternoon. I hope you don't mind."
Gu Rui Niang knelt down directly and said, "I dare not."
"Madam Hou, I came here to ask for a favor."
Song Huan was startled and quickly leaned over to help Gu Rui Niang up: "What are you doing? Get up quickly."
Gu Rui Niang refused to listen: "Madam, if you don't help me, I don't know who else can help me."
Song Huan: “…” Hehe.
Do you think she is a fool?
This seemed to be asking for her help, but in fact it was threatening her.
Jin Yue, standing by, couldn't understand why Gu Rui Niang did this. "Sister Rui Niang, please get up first. What happened? Get up and tell me."
Gu Rui Niang did not move. She looked up at Song Huan, tears welling in her eyes. She said tearfully, "Please, Madam Hou, help me!"
Song Huan glanced at her quietly, squatted down, and said in a clear voice: "Since your doctor Gu is unwilling to get up, then Jinyue, please help me get a blanket from the bed."
Jin Yue was stunned, "Madam."
Song Huan raised his eyes and said coldly: "Are you not going yet?"
The author has something to say: Jin Jin: I thought I could, but actually I can’t (crying bitterly!)
