Yu Jiaojiao carefully pulled open the other party’s clothes and gently wiped on the medicine.
A heat rose in her cheeks, and her heart was full of unease.
She had just persuaded the other party, but now it was her turn to be shy. She couldn’t help but cough lightly, wiping on the medicine for the other party with some awkwardness.
Looking at the wound, she leaned over and gently blew on it.
This was all a wound he had suffered for her.
This action successfully made Jiang Xingyan’s body stiffen, and he silently clenched his fists, not knowing what to do.
Finally, this sweet torment came to an end, and Jiang Xingyan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, looking up at Yu Jiaojiao.
Just as he was about to say something, he saw the other party lose her footing and fall to the side.
Without thinking, Jiang Xingyan grabbed Yu Jiaojiao’s wrist and pulled her into his arms.
Yu Jiaojiao fell into Jiang Xingyan’s arms, lying on his chest.
She was a little embarrassed and wanted to get up, but her hand slipped as she supported herself on the bed, and she fell over again.
Her lips bumped into Jiang Xingyan’s face, and her face turned red all of a sudden, embarrassed and not knowing where to look.
Jiang Xingyan was the same, his mind and eyes were full of the feeling of the touch on his face just now, soft and bouncy.
Yu Jiaojiao opened her mouth and was about to say something to ease the atmosphere, but the door behind her was suddenly opened at this time, and she was startled, turning around to look.
“I’ve come at an inopportune time.” The Divine Doctor couldn’t help but smile.
“Why don’t you knock?” Yu Jiaojiao complained in a low voice, hurriedly climbing off Jiang Xingyan and standing by the bed, too embarrassed to raise her head.
“I originally thought that there was only a comatose patient in this room, so there was no need to knock, but then I thought that you two were actually at this time…” The Divine Doctor couldn’t help but sigh after hearing these words.
He said with a helpless expression, “Was there such a hurry? After all, the person has just woken up, you should let him rest for a while.”
“Don’t talk nonsense.” Yu Jiaojiao said anxiously, “I just accidentally fell, he just helped me up.”
“If it was just a fall, would both of your faces be so red? This old man has been there, and understands,” the Divine Doctor said with a knowing look.
Yu Jiaojiao saw this and was even more embarrassed and angry, and couldn’t help but glare at the other party.
Then she said to Jiang Xingyan, “I’ve already bandaged your wound, I’ll leave first.”
Then she left quickly, regardless of the reactions of others.
The Divine Doctor looked at her appearance, but laughed even louder, and couldn’t help but joke, “You two are an interesting couple, such a small matter can be like this, people who don’t know better would think you’re not a couple.”
Jiang Xingyan withdrew his gaze, glanced at the other party lightly, and didn’t say much.
He just asked, “Where is this?”
“It’s an inn in a nearby town. Your Wangfei pawned her jewelry to pay the money. When your injury is almost healed, we can return to the capital. It’s about four or five days’ journey from here to the capital by carriage,” the Divine Doctor explained.
After taking a deep look at Jiang Xingyan, he couldn’t help but say, “You should treat your Wangfei better in the future, she is really giving herself to you without reservation, if it weren’t for her, you might have really been in danger this time.”
The Divine Doctor told Jiang Xingyan that Yu Jiaojiao had used all her strength to pull him ashore from the water that day, and if it had been any later, he might have really lost his life.
Hearing these words, a look of heartache flashed in Jiang Xingyan’s eyes, and he promised, “Don’t worry, this is natural.”
Afraid of alarming the enemy again, the few of them returned to the capital in a low-key manner in secret, and embarked on the road home again.
At the same time, the Jing Wang mansion had become a mess. The news that Jiang Xingyan had encountered water bandits and fallen into the water had spread to the capital, and everyone felt that he was definitely beyond saving with his body.
The Old Wangfei fainted directly after learning of this, and woke up again the next day.
The second family was guarding beside her, and as soon as they saw her wake up, they couldn’t wait to surround her, their eyes filled with worry.
The imperial physician sent by the palace saw this scene and immediately looked displeased, and quickly pushed them all away, “What are you doing? The Old Wangfei needs to rest well, you’re surrounding her like this, it’s easier for the Old Wangfei to have difficulty breathing.”
Jiang Peilang spoke first, “Grandmother, are you okay? Don’t be too sad. Although Uncle is no longer here, we will take good care of you. We who are alive must live well. He definitely doesn’t want you to be too sad in the afterlife.”
“That’s right.” Fang Shi forcibly suppressed the excitement in her heart, and kept complaining, “This matter is also Yu Jiaojiao’s fault, insisting on taking Wangye to run around everywhere. It’s only now that something has happened. Otherwise, how could she have encountered bandits in the Wang mansion all day long? I think she didn’t have good intentions.”
Although she said this, her heart was full of gratitude towards Yu Jiaojiao.
If it weren’t for Yu Jiaojiao, she really wouldn’t have found a chance to do it.
“Grandmother, although Aunt is also my sister, I don’t know what she was thinking when she did such a thing, and I don’t know if it’s because she’s not willing to marry Uncle,” Yu Jingjing said from the side, her tone difficult to hide her joy.
She really didn’t expect that Yu Jiaojiao would die like this, then the entire Wang mansion would be her world from now on.
And from now on, she would also be the most favored daughter of the Marquis’s mansion.
Listening to the words of the few people, the Old Wangfei almost fainted from anger.
She directly interrupted their words, “Don’t talk nonsense. As long as I don’t see Ayan’s body for a day, I don’t believe he’s dead. He will definitely be fine.”
“Grandmother, please accept the change and take care of yourself,” Jiang Peilang said, suppressing the joy in his heart, and continued, “Moreover, Uncle passed away while he was out, and the Emperor only sent a few words, and didn’t posthumously honor him.”
“If you ask me, this Aunt is really something, saying that she wanted to help Uncle detoxify, but she ended up harming Uncle. I don’t know what she was thinking.”
The Old Wangfei became more and more angry as she listened to these words, but she didn’t explode, just forcing herself to calm down.
These so-called water bandits were definitely not that simple, it was definitely done by someone with a purpose, just like the poison Jiang Xingyan was poisoned with back then.
Now that Jiang Xingyan was gone, she could only rely on her to find out the truth, she must not fall at this time.
Then she heard Fang Shi say cautiously from the side, “Now that Wangye has had an accident, the Wang mansion can’t be without a master for a day. Perhaps we should find someone to inherit the Wang position. It’s just a pity that Wangye doesn’t even have any descendants, and I don’t know what to do. Everything can only wait for Mother to decide.”
