Jiang Ling heard sobbing in a trance, and opened her eyes with great effort to meet those wet eyes. Her mind became more and more confused, and she felt that her body was so hot that she was about to explode.
His Adam's apple rolled, and he asked in a hoarse voice, "Who are you..."
Li Xue sniffed, stretched out her hand and placed it on his chest, looking at him pitifully: "I am Li Xue, the Third Princess, Major General, your fiancée. We are in the cave now."
"Your wound got wet from the rain and you have a fever. Can you please let me go? I'll make you some porridge."
After saying that, he looked at her in a daze, with a strange look in his eyes, as if they were meeting for the first time. It was obvious that he was confused.
Jiang Ling was in a daze, looking at the red lips opening and closing, and felt a little thirsty for some reason. He subconsciously leaned over and rubbed them, and the hot feeling was relieved.
Li Xue's mind went blank. Looking at the reckless person, who was completely different from the polite and gentle person she used to be, her mind began to feel dizzy.
The big hand moved along her back and gently untied the straps of her bellyband. When Li Xue realized what he was going to do, she woke up with a start.
She quickly put her hand on his chest and turned her head away, saying, "Major General, you are delirious with fever. Let me go. No, we can't do this. We can't do this."
Jiang Ling was still trapped in a nightmare, with a confused look in her eyes. She felt dizzy and irritable due to a headache, and was somewhat dissatisfied when she saw her avoid her.
"Don't hide!"
Li Xue was entangled again and realized that something was wrong. If the high fever was just caused by the wound, the young general should not be so out of control. Could it be that he had eaten something poisonous?
"Um, Major General, have you eaten anything?"
Jiang Ling tilted her head, her eyes showing a bit of childish innocence, completely different from her usual appearance.
"Red, red fruit is delicious, but it's so hot. Why is it so hot? Please help me get some ice. Come quickly."
Li Xue was about to cry. She was indeed poisoned. She reached out to push away but was caught by a big hand and trapped on top of her head. A hot kiss fell, brushing across her forehead, cheeks, neck and all the way down.
The atmosphere in the cave became increasingly heated, and soon a cry of pain was heard. The man's gentle coaxing voice rang out: "Don't cry, it won't hurt soon~~~~"
The crackling sound of raindrops blocked out the woman's ambiguous moans. It was unknown how long it took for the sound to stop. Li Xue had already fainted.
When the sky was slightly brighter, Jiang Ling felt his anger subside. He took a dazed look, hugged the person in his arms tighter, closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
She slept until dawn. Jiang Ling opened her eyes and was about to move when she suddenly realized something was wrong. She looked down and saw tear marks on the woman's pale face.
Her lips were bright red and slightly swollen, and there were red marks on her neck and arms. She felt something strange in her body, and images flashed through her mind before her brain exploded.
What did he do last night? Is he crazy?
The person in my arms sobbed, still crying: "No, let me go, it hurts, it hurts so much~~~~"
Jiang Ling's face was red as blood. She slowly moved away, quickly put on her clothes, went out to calm down, boiled some hot water, brought it in, and wiped the sleeping person clean with a towel.
He put on his clothes bit by bit, closed his eyes and thought about the ridiculous things he had done last night. He wanted to kill himself.
My mind was in a mess and I didn't know what to do. I said I was poisoned, but no, that was not a reason for me to do such a thing. What would she think of me?
Li Xue's eyelashes trembled, and she slowly opened her eyes and looked at the stone wall. She felt a little dizzy and couldn't remember what was going on.
I moved my body slightly, and an indescribable pain came. I couldn't help but gasp: "Hiss."
Jiang Ling came back to his senses and looked at her. They looked at each other in silence for a while. After a long while, he spoke: "I, I helped you clean and apply medicine on your body. Are you still in pain?"
Then he took out a dagger and handed it over, his eyes full of guilt: "I'm sorry, it was all my fault last night. You can stab me a few times to vent your anger."
"If you're still not satisfied, you can do whatever you want."
Li Xue opened her mouth to speak, but her throat was already hoarse, and her voice was like a broken wind. "I, I want to drink some water. You...are you not having a fever anymore?"
Jiang Ling hurriedly got up to get a glass of water. Seeing that she didn't blame him at all and was even worried about his health, he felt almost overwhelmed by guilt.
"Yeah, the fever has gone down. Last night I... I'm sorry."
“……!!”
An awkward atmosphere spread in the cave. Li Xue lowered her head to drink water. After finishing, she glanced at him secretly: "I want to go to the toilet. Can you please not follow me?"
Jiang Ling: "Can you walk by yourself?"
"able."
Li Xue's hands were shaking as she held onto the stone wall. She moved outside step by step. When she came back after she had finished her work, she saw him holding a white inner garment in a daze.
Only after walking a little closer did she see a small blood stain on her white undergarment. After realizing what it might be, Li Xue's legs went weak and she almost fell to the ground.
Jiang Ling dodged over, picked her up and placed her on the hay, covering her with clothes. She whispered, "Rest well, I'll go wash the clothes."
"No, no, that's my undergarment."
"Can……"
Li Xue glared at him, stretched out her hand and said stubbornly: "No buts, give me the clothes."
Jiang Ling thought for a moment, folded the bloodstained white undergarment, and placed it directly on his chest. The clothes were originally made of natural silk, so when folded, it was only a thin layer.
Realizing what he was doing, Li Xue was filled with shame and anger: "You, how could you be so... so reckless."
"This is all my fault. When I return, I will explain the truth to the elders and give the princess an explanation. The princess can be beaten or scolded as she pleases."
Li Xue glared at him in shame and anger: "You, how can you tell such a thing to your elders? Don't talk about this matter. Just pretend... nothing happened. Just help me on my wedding night."
"How can I help?"
"What do you think, Major-General?"
Jiang Ling slowly reacted and nodded seriously: "Okay, I understand. Use my blood on your wedding night."
Li Xue covered her face and didn't want to look at the man. She slowly lay down with her back to him and didn't want to talk. She had thought that she only had one year to live, and by then they would treat each other with respect and not have sex.
It would be great if she died so that he could marry another one and there wouldn't be any difficulties for either of them. Why did everything become a mess?
After the porridge was cooked, the two drank it. One of them felt tired and slowly fell asleep, while the other one looked at him from time to time, with a concern that he didn't even realize.
After staying like this for two days, Li Xue felt much better and urged: "Major General, shouldn't we hurry on our way?"
Jiang Ling subconsciously frowned and emphasized, "Call me husband and wife. Since we are husband and wife, then we are husband and wife. Calling me Young General is too formal."
