Allure of a Country Maiden
Chapter 455 - 453

Chapter 455: Chapter 453

After their porridge, the two sat on the wooden bed chatting.

Shangguan Xuanyi asked Xiao’er about how her soul could see what was happening.

Xiao’er wished to bite her own tongue off for being so honest; why did she blurt out that her soul had left her body? After thinking for a bit, she fibbed:

"I guess when you are unconscious, you know what’s going on around you and you can hear everything, but even though your mind is willing to wake up, your body isn’t responding. It doesn’t necessarily mean that a soul has left the body."

"So you mean you were conscious, knew I was changing my clothes, but didn’t actually see me changing?" Shangguan Xuanyi looked at Xiao’er’s red ears. Clearly, this girl was lying.

Xiao’er remained silent, she had seen him, but she would never admit it again: "Hmm, I didn’t see."

Her ears turned even more red.

"It’s a pity, if you feel like you’ve missed out, I can undress for you to see now." Shangguan Xuanyi couldn’t resist teasing her.

When did he become such a flirt? He can’t be pretending to be naive without having his memories back, can he?

At this thought, she broke out into cold sweat!

She reached out and twisted Shangguan Xuanyi’s ear: "Tell me! Why can’t you be serious for a moment, are you really my Brother Shangguan?"

In pain from his ear being twisted, Shangguan Xuanyi winced: "Ouch, girl, it hurts, let go, are you trying to murder your own husband?!"

When did his girl become such a shrew? This has to stop!

"Possessed by a demon? I’m not even married yet! Where do I get a husband from?"

"A husband-to-be who hasn’t stepped over the threshold yet! If you don’t believe me, let us verify each other’s true identities." Shangguan Xuanyi cleverly pulled Xiao’er’s hand away, hugged her in his arms, and leaned down to kiss her.

Xiao’er quickly put up her hand to stop him, pointing at his chapped lips: "Don’t, your lips are bleeding again after eating the roast chicken. Besides, your lips are swollen like a sausage, I can’t bring myself to kiss you!"

Shangguan Xuanyi gave her a pitiful look, who even did this to him!

Xiao’er was trying hard not to laugh.

Xiao’er then asked about Shangguan Xuanyi’s love spell, and he explained it in detail.

"Could it be that your love spell is so unique and strange because of the dream you had before you woke up?"

"Probably!"

Unique, strange? His girl really knows how to describe things.

As Shangguan Xuanyi and Xiao’er were talking, slumber began to overtake them.

"Girl, let’s go to bed. I will hold you while we sleep."

Upon hearing this, Xiao’er was delighted, finally willing to sleep?

She was starving to death from just eating porridge! She wanted to eat roast chicken leg so badly!

"Brother Shangguan, you go to bed first, I have been sleeping for months, I’m not tired yet."

"Alright, if you get tired, go to sleep in the space. It’s safe there." Shangguan Xuanyi didn’t force her; he had barely slept during this period, and now that Xiao’er was awake, the killers wouldn’t return immediately. Finally, he could sleep peacefully.

Xiao’er glanced at the already asleep Shangguan Xuanyi, originally wanting to take out a roast chicken leg to eat. After thinking for a moment, she worried that suddenly eating something greasy would upset her stomach, so she took out a plate of fried beefsteak from space and began to eat.

Shangguan Xuanyi lifted his heavy eyelids, glanced at her, smiled, and drifted back to sleep.

When he woke up, he noticed some light seeping in from outside the cave, but it was still somewhat dark inside.

Shangguan Xuanyi looked at the girl sleeping in his arms, her rosy cheeks, and couldn’t help but kiss her.

He was planning to keep it brief, but she was so sweet that he couldn’t resist deepening the kiss.

Xiao’er had no desire to sleep all last night. She had only gone to sleep close to dawn, and was now sound asleep. She was disturbed by the prickly stubble and pushed him away, "Stop it, I’m so sleepy, and your stubble is hurting me."

Shangguan Xuanyi laughed, and eventually let her go. Sigh, he couldn’t go on anyway, his lips were bleeding again, and he had already tasted the blood.

Shangguan Xuanyi looked at her sweet sleeping face and couldn’t help but smile again. He hoped that in the future, he could wake up every morning to see her sweet and adorable face.

He touched the stubble on his chin, took out a razor, used the reflection in the water in the basin, and began to shave.

When Xiao’er woke up, it was already mid-morning. She had woken up because she was hungry.

Shangguan Xuanyi had already sent out a signal, and after they had eaten something in the cave, it didn’t take long for Yang Liu and the rest to find them.

Xiao’er was relieved to see that they were all okay.

They were all very happy to see that Xiao’er had finally regained consciousness.

Jingrui couldn’t help but give Xiao’er a hug: "Xiao’er, you’ve finally woken up."

"I made Brother worry."

"Cough cough!" Shangguan Xuanyi gave a dark cough! He really felt like beating someone up!

Jingrui held Xiao’er for a while before letting her go, choosing to ignore the dark face of a certain person.

Don’t think he didn’t understand what the swollen lips of the two meant!

Zhao Yong, sensing the tense atmosphere, hastily said: "Miss, if you didn’t wake up, our master wouldn’t have made it. His sword was lodged in you, but you’re the one who really got hurt! Look, as soon as you wake up, our master has miraculously recovered! I told you, our master is such a strong person, how could he be sick? It turns out that a disease of the heart needs the medicine of the heart to cure!"

Remembering how unkempt and ill his master had looked before, Zhao Yong shuddered.

His master had always been like a mobile iceberg, but after Xiao’er fell into a coma, he was full of regrets and looked pitiful. He’d had enough!

The animals in the space simultaneously rolled their eyes at Zhao Yong’s words.

This bootlicker, enough is enough! Miraculous recovery! Where on earth would such a good thing happen! It’s all because of their goodwill!

Xiao’er finally understood why Shangguan Xuanyi’s words were heading off track, probably following Zhao Yong’s example!

"Zhao Yong, if you hadn’t mentioned it, I would have forgotten. Your master stabbed me with a sword, almost took my life, how should I repay him?" Xiao’er looked distressed, yes, she’d forgotten a very important thing. Finally, it came back to her – it was time to settle the score!

Zhao Yong, upon hearing these words, instinctively glanced at Shangguan Xuanyi, met his murderous gaze, and he seemed to hear the sound of avalanches again!

All of a sudden, he saw Xiao’er’s slightly swollen lips and Shangguan Xuanyi’s obviously bitten lips. As a father of two children, he understood immediately, he quickly said:

"Miss, you sacrificed yourself to save the master, which woke him up. A drop of water deserves a burst of spring in return. His debt of saving your life can be repaid by dedicating himself to you!"

Upon hearing this, Shangguan Xuanyi felt for the first time that Zhao Yong was rather eloquent. He nodded gravely:

"Girl, then I will dedicate myself to you, and be your servant for life!"

How shameless, so shameless! It was obviously him who had almost killed her, why was it being twisted into her saving him?

"Zhao Yong, I finally understand that you’re an ungrateful wolf in sheep’s clothing! I even gave you so many good things to eat! From now on, you can go back to the Sixth Prince’s Mansion for meals!"
