Xie Jue understood Fengyu and knew her personality. Over the years, he had genuinely treated her as family, cherishing and caring for her. In the past, when their fathers and mothers were still around, Xie Jue was practically detached from worldly concerns, speaking little unless necessary, avoiding socializing for peace and quiet. If he wished, he could disappear into the deep mountains for days without anyone questioning him. He had no need to concern himself with worldly affairs or worry about anyone at home suffering illnesses uncared for.
But in the years spent in Ningzhou, knowing Fengyu was weak and that Xie Xun was occupied with military affairs, every time hunters ventured into the mountains with medicinal herbs meant for sustenance or when rare medicines secretly traded with the Beiman surfaced at the border, he sent them to West State, hoping Fengyu would regain her health and live a long life.
