Yan Shuixin leaned in Xiao Yeheng's arms and asked distressedly, "Why are you here? You are still seriously injured."

"I'm fine." He lowered his head and stared at her intently, "Li Youzhu returned at noon, but you didn't come back. I was restless and worried, so I came out to look for you. Some villagers happened to be walking towards Duanji City, and I followed them quietly, so I wouldn't go the wrong way."

With his pace, starting from Li Youzhu's house at noon, it takes two hours to reach the west gate of the city. It is now seven or eight o'clock in the evening. Her delicate eyebrows were almost wrinkled with distress, "So, you've been waiting for me for almost two hours."

He nodded, "I was waiting at the fork in the road from the west of the city. But there were men in black searching in front, so I had to find a place to hide and wait for you. I didn't want to go far," he pointed to the bushes next to him, "I just waited here."

She raised her hand to detect his pulse with three fingers, she felt extremely distressed and said, "You said you were fine, but your internal injuries has worsened. And..."

The poison in him has spread throughout his body, and she is afraid that...

A faint mist came over her eyes. Xiao Yeheng thought she felt sorry for his injury, so he smiled nonchalantly and said, "If you're fine, then I will not die." He started to take the baggage on her back and picked up the two cloth bags in her hands, "I'll carry them."

Yan Shuixin, who was carrying a heavy mental load, suddenly became light-hearted. She tried her best to control her inner emotions and pretended to be relaxed, "How about I carry some too?"

He refused, so she had no choice but to go empty-handed. She thought that he must not have had dinner, so she quickly took out an oil paper bag from her sleeve pocket and opened it. Inside were two cold pork buns, "Your Highness, these are the snacks I brought for you. Eat them quickly."

Yan Shuixin held the bun to his mouth, he took a bite and asked, "What about you?"

"I've eaten." She stroked her slightly bulging belly, "I had a bowl of egg fried rice for dinner in Duanji City." This was true, "I'm not hungry at all now."

Xiao Yeheng freed up a hand and stroked her abdomen. She had indeed eaten. But he, after eating four steamed buns at noon, had not yet eaten. He was really hungry, so he wolfed down the bun in her hand in a few big mouthfuls.

She took out a packet of rice cakes wrapped in oil paper from her other sleeve pocket and shared them with him.

In fact, she saw a lot of snacks today and wanted to buy some of them. But she didn't dare to spend money recklessly, so she didn't buy more.

They two of them made their way together to Yejia Village.

There was a bright moon in the sky tonight, the moonlight soaked the land, everything was silent, and the shadows of the two people walking side by side stretched long on the mountain road.

With him by her side, Yan Shuixin is no longer afraid of the dark at night.

Xiao Yeheng had always been afraid that something would happen to her, and when he was with her, his suspended heart fell to the ground.

In ancient rural areas, there was no nightlife. The villagers slept early and stopped roaming around. After two or three hours, Yan Shuixin and Xiao Yeheng returned to Yejia Village without encountering anyone on the way.

Li Youzhu's house is at the east end of the village, the first home in the village. It is still more than a hundred meters away from where the villagers live. Unless they are farming during the day, no one usually comes here to go to the fields.
