Chapter 155 What a perfect couple~
Inside the tent.
Pei Jingxu waited anxiously, waiting for the imperial physician to bandage the wound before hurriedly asking, "Imperial physician, how is my husband?"
The imperial physician had noticed from the beginning that this beautiful lady had always been by General Xuanzhou's side. Seeing how worried she was, he felt that she loved him deeply.
His tone softened slightly, "Second Madam, don't worry. General Xuanzhou has a chest injury, but it's just a superficial wound. It's nothing serious."
Pei Jingxu's eyes were filled with tears, and her voice was trembling with uncertainty: "Really? Is my husband really okay?"
"It's really okay. The wound has been bandaged. The general will be awake in no time."
Pei Jingxu then closed his eyes and hurriedly bowed to the imperial physician: "Thank you, imperial physician! Thank you, imperial physician! I, I was so anxious!"
The imperial physician smiled kindly, "Second Madam, you care so much about General Xuanzhou. You are truly a well-matched couple!"
Pei Jingxu pursed her lips and smiled shyly, "What are you talking about, Imperial Physician? I just want my husband to be safe and healthy, and to grow old together. Nothing else matters."
The imperial physician smiled and said, "Second Madam, please take good care of General Xuanzhou. I will not disturb you any further."
"Farewell, Imperial Physician."
After sending the imperial physician away, the smile on Pei Jingxu's face disappeared instantly, and the warmth between his eyebrows also turned cold.
When I walked to Rong Xuanzhou, I saw him lying on the bed with a frown on his face. It looked like he would not wake up for a while.
Looking down at Rong Xuanzhou lying on the bed, Pei Jingxu's eyes were calm, without any unnecessary emotions.
Perhaps because he had lived a second life, Pei Jingxu felt that his love for Rong Xuanzhou seemed to have happened many, many years ago.
She did believe in love, and she also firmly believed that she could spend the rest of her life with Rong Xuanzhou.
But the fact proves that love is the most useless thing.
Living her life over again, she doesn't want that kind of vague and illusory love. She wants to live, she wants to live on, she wants to live to the end.
The pool was too icy and cold, and she didn't want to be the one pushed into the water again.
In order to survive, she can do anything.
Candles were lit inside the tent, and outside the tent, the sun was setting.
The autumn hunting lasts for three days. After the first day, everyone will return to their tents to rest.
Pei Jingxu sat by the bed waiting, and occasionally heard the guards' discussions outside the tent.
"Hey, hey, hey, have you heard? Master Young Master hunted a black bear at noon today!"
"I heard about it! But it seems that the waiter didn't report Master Shaofu's prey anymore."
"That's because Master Young Master didn't leave the enclosure at all that afternoon. I heard... I heard he was injured..."
Pei Jingxu's eyelids twitched when he heard this.
Rong Jianxue was injured?
The situation was urgent just now, and she deliberately ignored him and did not notice his condition.
After rubbing his fingertips a few times, Pei Jingxu narrowed his eyes and slowly came back to his senses.
Soon, footsteps were heard from outside the tent, approaching from afar.
Someone is coming.
Pei Jingxu curled her lips slightly, bit the tip of her tongue, and a blush appeared at the corners of her eyes.
She spoke softly to Rong Xuanzhou, who was still unconscious on the bed, "Husband, I'll go get you some water."
After saying that, she slowly stood up, opened the tent door, and walked out of the tent.
Sure enough, he met Bai Shutong who came to visit Rong Xuanzhou.
Pei Jingxu's eyes were bloodshot. When he saw Bai Shutong, a hint of forced anger flashed in his eyes: "Bai, how dare you come here!?"
Bai Shutong's lips were a little red and swollen, and there were ambiguous marks on his neck that were difficult to conceal.
——It seems that he has just "reconciled" with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
Hearing Pei Jingxu's question, Bai Shutong narrowed his eyes slightly, but his face remained calm and composed: "Why can't I come here?"
"You were clearly with your husband before leaving the enclosure. Why weren't you there when he was injured?" Pei Jingxu asked.
A flash of panic flashed across Bai Shutong's eyes, but the next second he raised his eyebrows: "This is a matter between me and Brother Xuanzhou. It has nothing to do with you."
"It has nothing to do with me? Rong Xuanzhou is my husband, how can it have nothing to do with me!"
Bai Shutong scoffed at this and said, "Sister Pei, Brother Xuanzhou doesn't like you at all. What's the point of you clinging to the title of Rong Family's Second Lady?"
"You're talking nonsense!" Pei Jingxu growled, "I've been married to my husband for many years, how could he not love me?"
Tears welled up in her eyes as she continued, "My husband, my husband has sworn to me that he will live a good life with me. Don't try to sow discord between us!"
Bai Shutong's eyes flashed with pride. "Live a good life? Pei Jingxu, stop indulging in unrealistic fantasies. Do you believe it or not, if I just beckon you, Brother Xuanzhou will abandon you?"
"That's nonsense!" Pei Jingxu's voice trembled, his eyes filled with panic, and he forced himself to maintain his composure. "Bai Shutong, what are you so proud of?"
"The only things you have more than me are those two kids!"
"I'm telling you, my husband and I will have children! We will be reconciled as before, and you're just his temporary entertainment!"
Bai Shutong chuckled softly. She took two steps toward the tent when Pei Jingxu stopped her. Pei Jingxu asked warily, "What do you want to do?"
Bai Shutong raised his eyebrows slightly, with a hint of provocation in his eyes: "Move aside, I'm going to visit Brother Xuanzhou."
After saying that, she pushed Pei Jingxu away with her body, opened the tent door, and entered the tent.
Pei Jingxu turned his back to the tent, narrowed his eyes slightly, and a smile appeared at the corner of his lips.
She came out under the pretext of "fetching water", so she needed to wait a while before going back.
She needs to "accidentally" discover their passionate love affair, become disheartened, and choose Rong Jianxue instead.
She needed an opportunity to despair, a reason to give up Rong Xuanzhou.
In this way, the change in her behavior and thoughts will not be abrupt and will happen naturally.
But what Pei Jingxu didn't expect was that before Pei Jingxu could go find Rong Jianxue, Jiang Hui found her first.
When Pei Jingxu finished drawing water, she saw Jiang Hui standing behind her.
"Guard Jiang, why are you here?" Pei Jingxu was stunned, with a hint of confusion in his eyes.
Jiang Hui looked a little embarrassed.
He pursed his lips slightly, and finally said: "Second Madam, the Master said that he would let me take you to see a 'good show'."
Pei Jingxu looked puzzled, but still followed Jiang Hui forward.
Jiang Hui brought her to Rong Xuanzhou's tent.
Pei Jingxu raised his eyebrows slightly, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
——How did Rong Jianxue know?
Stopping in front of the tent, those difficult-to-suppress sounds easily penetrated Pei Jingxu's ears.
"Brother Xuanzhou, you're still injured..."
"It's okay... Shutong..."
"Brother Xuanzhou..."
"Shutong, I like you... You know, I like you..."
The lingering and confusing words are heard everywhere.
As if he was intentionally telling someone half of what he was saying, two figures in the tent were entangled with each other, inseparable.
Pei Jingxu stood there, eyes wide open, tears rolling down her cheeks uncontrollably.
