Farm Girl's Manor

Xiao Ruiyuan stared blankly at the delicate silhouette atop the savage beast, his mind a void, his heart and eyes filled with only the girl who haunted his dreams...

Hundreds of beasts dispersed like a tide under the five beasts’ oppressive aura, and several guards gratefully took the Sanqi Powder that could stop bleeding from the young girl who had saved them; after treating the severely injured sons of the Princes and their companions, they finally began to dress their own wounds.

King Heng sat sullenly on a rock, commanding his guard to dress his wound. Seeing the blood from his calf cease miraculously after the powder was applied, surprise flickered in his eyes: Surely not even the finest medicines in the palace were so effective?

With that thought, he couldn’t help but glance toward a large tree not far away, encircled by five fierce beasts. Through the gaps, all he could see was a touch of elegant lake blue.

At that moment, Mo Yan was using the Spirit Spring Water to cleanse the wound on Xiao Ruiyuan’s arm. These were wounds inflicted when he had been surrounded by ten savage beasts; and though they were only superficial, who knew if the beasts’ claws might carry bacteria or viruses—carelessness could cost a life.

The icy cold and murderous air that usually shrouded Xiao Ruiyuan had long been replaced by tenderness. He watched quietly as the earnest woman with her head bowed slightly reached up to gently tuck her fallen hair behind her ear.

His fingertips unintentionally brushed her tender white earlobe, the soft, foreign sensation sparking a small flame within him, sending a faint blush secretly creeping up to his ear.

Mo Yan, completely focused on her task, didn’t notice his change at all. After carefully cleaning the wound and applying the powder, ensuring no cuts were missed, she finally relaxed and carefully admonished, "Even if the injuries are not severe, you must refrain from eating anything too rich or hot, and avoid contact with water, to prevent inflammation."
