Stepping out of the tent, Jiang Changbai looked around and finally saw Ye Xiao at the entrance of Xiao Nanyeâs tent.
Seeing her, Jiang Changbai hurriedly asked, âYe Xiao, where is lluan Er?â
Hearing Jiang Changbaiâs words, Ye Xiao subconsciously looked at the tent behind her.
Following her gaze, Jiang Changbai couldnât help but ask, âIs Huan Er inside?â
âEldest Miss was worried about His Highnessâs injuries, so she came over.â
âHas she been there all night?â
Ye Xiao did not say anything but nodded.
Seeing her nod, Jiang Changbaiâs face changed immediately.
Although the two were already engaged, and although Xiao Nanye was injured and couldnât actually do anything to Jiang Peihuan, and although Xiao Nanye often visited the Palm Garden at night when he was in the capital.
Still, Jiang Changbai walked forward with rage in his eyes. As he prepared to lift the curtain, Han Feng stopped him.
âWhat are you doing? Move aside.â
âYoung General, my master is still injured. Please come back later.â
Han Fengâs eyes were full of appeasement, but Jiang Changbai ignored him completely. Thinking of Jiang Peihuan spending the whole night in Xiao Nanyeâs tent, he felt as if his heart was on fire.
âMove aside, or donât blame me for being impolite.â
Seeing that Jiang Changbai was really going to fight him, Han Feng hurriedly stepped aside.
Master, I have tried my best.
After Han Feng stepped aside, Jiang Changbai stepped forward and pulled open the curtain. However, the scene before him stunned him.
Jiang Peihuan was lying on the bed with a blanket covering her body. Xiao Nanye was sitting on a chair at the side, only wearing a coat.
Hearing the noise, Xiao Nanye immediately opened his eyes.
Seeing that Jiang Changbai was about to speak, Xiao Nanye immediately gave him a warning look. Seeing the manâs expression, Jiang Changbai subconsciously shut his mouth.
Xiao Nanye glanced at the person on the bed. His eyes were filled with gentleness. He gently placed Jiang Peihuanâs exposed hand under the blanket, and only then did he walk out. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
With every step Xiao Nanye took, he felt a sharp pain from his wounds, but the man was in a good mood.
Last night, when he opened his eyes and saw Jiang Peihuan, Xiao Nanye almost thought he was dreaming. Only when the pain from his injuries struck him did he realize that Jiang Peihuan had really come.
He carefully moved Jiang Peihuan to the bed, and even then, she did not wake up, showing how truly exhausted she was.
âYour Highness, are your injuries alright?â Jiang Changbai asked worriedly, looking at Xiao Nanyeâs retreating figure.
Having witnessed that scene, Jiang Changbai had to admit that Xiao Nanye had truly fallen for his sister.
Hearing his words, Xiao Nanye shook his head and softly said, âItâs fine, just some minor injuries. They will heal in a few days.â
With a few words, Xiao Nanye sent Jiang Changbai away and then walked back into the tent.
Jiang Peihuan didnât wake up until much later in the morning.
âHuan Er, are you awake?â
Seeing Jiang Peihuan open her eyes, Xiao Nanye immediately approached.
Jiang Peihuan had slept for too long. If Ye Xiao had not repeatedly said that she was just too tired, Xiao Nanye would have woken her up.
Jiang Peihuan felt the softness under her and realized that she was lying on Xiao Nanyeâs bed. She was stunned and looked at Xiao Nanye. She couldnât help but say, â1 remember that 1 came last night to check your wounds. How did 1 end up in bed?â
âHuan Er, youâve worked hard this time.â
The man didnât answer Jiang Peihuanâs question directly, but instead looked at her warmly and said softly.
Jiang Peihuan was stunned for a few seconds before she said softly, âMy father, mother, and brother are all military soldiers. These are all things that I should do.â
âMaster, the breakfast is here.â
As Xiao Nanye was about to speak, he saw Han Feng walk in with the breakfast.
It had been several days since he last tasted breakfast. Since Jiang Peihuan had brought food, they couldnât naturally let the soldiers go hungry any longer.
Of course, that didnât mean they could eat whatever they desired.
At this moment, what Han Feng brought in was nothing more than two bowls of plain porridge, a few steamed buns, and two small dishes. This simple meal was unique to Xiao Nanye; no one else in the camp had such a breakfast.
Han Feng placed the food on the table, bowed to Xiao Nanye and Jiang Peihuan, and then left.
Looking at the food on the table, Jiang Peihuan frowned.
These foods had little nutrition and were not conducive to Xiao Nanyeâs recovery. But they were currently in the military camp, and there was no other choice.
However, Xiao Nanye himself didnât mind. He picked up a steamed bun and was just about to pass it to Jiang Peihuan when he suddenly froze; the wound was near his heart, and moving carelessly might exacerbate the injury.
âDonât move, I can do it myself,â she hurriedly said, seeing the manâs frowning face. She then quickly took the steamed bun from his hand.
Seeing that Xiao Nanye was about to pick up the soup spoon, Jiang Peihuan held down his hand.
Facing the manâs puzzled expression, Jiang Peihuan whispered, âYou shouldnât exert force now. Iâll have Flan Feng feed you.â
As she said this, Jiang Peihuan was preparing to call Han Feng in, but Xiao Nanye grabbed her hand and said, âNo.â
The manâs eyes were full of resistance. Seeing the expression in his eyes, Jiang Peihuan couldnât help but frown, âIf you do it yourself, it will affect your wound.â
âThen you feed me.â
Upon hearing Jiang Peihuanâs words, Xiao Nanye unconsciously spoke out.
As soon as his words fell, both of them were stunned.
Xiao Nanye was already prepared for Jiang Peihuan to refuse, but after a moment of silence, she picked up the porridge from the table, and then took the utensils.
She first tested the temperature of the porridge with the back of her hand before bringing it to the manâs mouth.
Watching Jiang Peihuanâs actions, Xiao Nanyeâs eyes were full of warmth.
After a moment of silence, he finally opened his mouth.
He had joined the army at a young age, and although Emperor Qi Ming had been very indulgent towards him, when he was seriously injured on the battlefield, he had always gritted his teeth and borne the pain alone.
This was the first time someone had taken such thoughtful care of him.
Seeing the manâs fervent expression, Jiang Peihuan dared not look at him and quickly fed him the porridge.
After he finished eating, Jiang Peihuan picked up a steamed bun.
The tent was very quiet but harmonious.
However, this harmony was quickly broken by the sound of horns outside. The two exchanged glances and stepped out of the tent together.
At this moment, Han Feng stepped forward, âMaster, the people from the Chujiang Mansion are challenging us outside.â
âI will go,â Jiang Changbai emerged from his tent, dressed in military attire.
Since Xiao Nanye was injured, he was the natural choice to step out and fight in Xiao Nanyeâs stead, but Jiang Changbai had only taken a few steps when Jiang Peihuan stopped him.
âElder Brother, donât go yet,â she said.
Seeing that everyone was looking at her, Jiang Peihuan continued, âIn the next few days, no matter how much the people from the Chujiang Mansion boast and challenge us, we will not go out to fight..â
