Before Lu Xianfeng had time to think more, he looked at Shen Jiao's appearance and quickly reached out to Shen Jiao, trying to pull her up.
Now that she has been discovered, Shen Jiao also knows that she cannot escape. She resignedly handed her hand over and placed it in Lu Xianfeng's palm.
Lu Xianfeng didn't know why she appeared here. He saw that she was shivering from the cold and wet, so he quickly took off his cloak and put it around her.
Just when Lu Xianfeng was about to ask her why she appeared here, He Qing appeared from the other side with someone.
He Qing wanted to come over and ask Lu Xianfeng if he had discovered anything, but suddenly he saw a petite figure standing up from the ground.
Looking at the familiar back, He Qing recognized it at a glance, and he quickly shouted, "Miss Shen!"
Shen Jiao turned her head and saw He Qing rushing over from the other side. He looked anxious. He lost his sense and wanted to reach out and hold her hand, "Miss Shen! I finally found you. Are you okay?"
Shen Jiao shook her head and took a step back to avoid his touch.
He Qing's outstretched hand froze in the air, but he quickly adjusted his expression and took his hand back calmly, as if he had not lost his composure just now.
He Qing said warmly: "Miss Shen, the general has been waiting at the foot of the mountain for a long time. Let's go down quickly."
Shen Jiao said nothing, just followed He Qing with her head lowered.
Lu Shanfeng on the side was stunned when He Qing called her Miss Shen. He looked at Shen Jiao in disbelief.
Miss Shen? ! She is the general's...!
At that moment, Lu Shanfeng had many things to ask her, but he didn't know where to start.
What to ask? Ask her why she didn't reveal her identity from the beginning? Or ask her why she ran away? Was the general treating her badly? Does she still remember herself?
Lu Shanfeng's heart was up and down, and he wanted to catch her and question her. But in the end, he did nothing or said anything. He just watched Shen Jiao walk down the mountain surrounded by everyone.
The general was already waiting for her.
The drizzle mixed with the cold wind blew on his face, and Lu Xianfeng suddenly woke up,...who did he have the right to ask?
Shen Jiao tried to take two steps but couldn't walk anymore. She groaned and stopped.
Lu Xianfeng saw that her expression was wrong, and then he realized that she was still barefoot. The stones on the ground were sharp and every step was torture.
So Lu Xianfeng didn't care about her identity, strode forward and hugged her sideways.
He no longer thought about the general or her relationship with the general. Now he just thinks about not causing her any more pain.
That's all. That’s all…
Seeing his bold move, He Qing on the side quickly spoke out to stop him, "Hey! You!..."
But his eyes quickly fell on the bloody soles of his feet, and he couldn't say anything.
…
Huo Changze waited at the foot of the mountain for a long time. He was so anxious that he wanted to kill Qi Yu who was standing beside him.
But he still held back. If Qi Yu died, Shen Jiao would only hate him even more. He kept Qi Yu, but it was actually useful...
"General! Found it!"
With a shout, Huo Changze suddenly raised his head and saw Lu Xianfeng coming down from the mountain with someone in his arms.
Huo Changze immediately rode his horse to Lu Shanfeng, and his heart tightened when he saw Shen Jiao curled up pitifully in Lu Shanfeng's arms.
He quickly reached out and took Shen Jiao out of Lu Shanfeng's arms. Looking at her pale face and injured soles, all his anger disappeared in an instant.
He held Shen Jiao tightly in his arms and comforted her in a low voice: "Don't be afraid, I'm here... We'll go back soon."
Shen Jiao also knew that she couldn't leave, so she stopped struggling, but there was one more thing.
"Huo Changze..." Shen Jiao sobbed, clutching his clothes and begging him humbly, "Qi Yu is missing... can you save him..."
Huo Changze was stunned when he heard her words. He didn't expect that the first thing she said when she saw him was for someone else.
He looked down at Shen Jiao, watching her cry and plead for another man in his arms. His heart became cold again.
Huo Changze touched his cheek with his tongue, smiled, and said harshly, "Are you so reluctant to let go of him?"
Before Shen Jiao could answer, Huo Changze carried Shen Jiao onto the horse and sat in front of him. He held the reins with one hand, looked indifferent, and ordered everyone: "Go back to the city."
"No..." After hearing Huo Changze's words, Shen Jiao immediately struggled to get off the horse. If even she leaves, no one will save Qi Yu... He will die.
Huo Changze watched her movements coldly, and suddenly he suppressed her hard.
Huo Changze stared at her, his voice almost hoarse, "If you really don't want him to die, then just follow me back."
Shen Jiao struggled under the man's control. At the same time, she was frightened by Huo Changze's livid face. Shen Jiao's fingertips trembled, and she subconsciously looked away, not daring to look directly at him.
Huo Changze looked at her for a long time and finally gave the order: "Go back to the city!"
…
The rain had lightened up a lot. Although she was wearing a falcon-style cloak, which blocked some of the cold wind and rain, her wet clothes were still absorbing the heat from her body.
Shen Jiao was held in Huo Changze's arms with one hand. She felt so cold that she leaned against the heat in a daze.
Huo Changze glanced down at him, pursed his lips tightly, and hugged her tighter.
Riding on horseback was much faster than riding in a carriage, and they were soon back where they came from.
Bitao was still in a coma, so Huo Changze asked He Qing and Lu Xianfeng to boil hot water.
As soon as they went out, Huo Changze took off the soaked cloak and threw it aside, and then took off her clothes.
During this period, Shen Jiao was so cold that she kept shivering. She had no strength at all to do anything Huo Changze did, and she didn't have the guts to resist anymore.
Huo Changze moved faster, tearing all the way to the back. He took off all the wet clothes and covered her tightly with a thick quilt.
When Shen Jiao looked better, Huo Changze knew that she had warmed up, so he squatted down and said, "Put your feet out and show me."
Shen Jiao obeyed and stretched out her injured foot.
Her feet were already white from the water, and the pink tender flesh was exposed at the wounds, as well as some small stones.
Huo Changze carefully picked out all the stones for her. During this period, when Shen Jiao felt pain and wanted to retract her foot, Huo Changze held her ankle so that she could not break away at all.
After briefly cleaning the two injured feet, Huo Changze stuffed them into the quilt, "I'll apply the medicine after I take a shower."
There was a knock on the door, and then He Qing's voice sounded outside the door, "General, the water has been boiled."
"come in."
So He Qing and Lu Shanfeng both came in carrying hot water. They put hot water into the tub, the steam steamed, and the room seemed to warm up.
Through the steaming mist, Lu Shanfeng couldn't help but look in the direction of the bed.
But he couldn't see anything from this place, only a few strands of black hair hanging from the edge of the bed. Lu Xianfeng was about to look away, but the next moment he suddenly met Huo Changze's sinister eyes!
Huo Changze twitched the corners of his lips, and suddenly grabbed Shen Jiao's chin and kissed her in front of them.
Shen Jiao snorted, not knowing why he suddenly kissed her, but when she thought there was someone else in the room, she wanted to reach out and push him away.
But she was wrapped tightly in the quilt and suppressed by Huo Changze, unable to move at all. Instead, she was kissed all over by him.
Huo Changze's fiery tongue penetrated her mouth and entangled her. Shen Jiao was forced to gasp for breath by his aggressive kiss, and her whole body went limp in his arms.
Huo Changze bit her lip hard one last time, raised his eyes to look at Lu Xianfeng beside him, and said impatiently: "Still not going out?!"
Lu Xianfeng was a little stunned when he saw this scene. Before he could react, He Qing pulled him out.
