Feeling the pain inside her body, she didn't pretend to be strong.
She slightly lifted her head, lips parting gently.
Warm porridge entered her mouth, the rich aroma relaxing her whole body.
But Xiao Jian suddenly put the bowl down, reached into his storage ring, and took out a pillow.
Then, naturally.....
He wrapped an arm around Yun Yun's shoulders through the blanket, lifted her carefully, and placed the pillow behind her back to support her.
Her face turned scarlet again.
His hand was on her shoulder through the blanket, it wasn't improper…
And he was helping her…
She couldn't scold him, so she stayed quiet and let him feed her.
After finishing the porridge, the warm fullness in her stomach made her mood much better.
"Senior, do you want to rest? Should I take the pillow away?"
Xiao Ji
an asked seriously.
"No— no need. I can't sleep for now. Sitting like this is fine."
Yun Yun quickly refused.
"Alright, then I won't disturb you."
Xiao Jian stood up to leave.
But just before he reached the door.....
"W-wait!"
Yun Yun blurted out suddenly.
Xiao Jian turned back. "Senior?"
Her face was red again, eyes shy, struggling to speak.
After a long silence, she lowered her voice:
"My storage ring won't open… Can you give me some clothes?"
Wrapped tightly in the blanket, her eyes looked like a frightened little deer.
"Oh..... right! I forgot about that."
Xiao Jian patted his head.
"I don't have women's clothes… but if you don't mind, you can wear my robe for now. It's clean."
He took out a white robe from his ring and placed it on the bedside.
Then he nodded politely and left the room.
Hearing his footsteps fade away, Yun Yun buried her entire face in the blanket.
Like this…
Even if she brought Xiao Jian back to Cloud Mist Sect…
How could she ever calm down enough to teach him?!
Noon of the next day.
Xiao Jian was cooking.
If he were eating alone, he would usually just make something simple and quick.
But now that a woman was resting inside his house, he couldn't let her eat something so casual.
Luckily, cooking wasn't hard for him. He'd been doing it for years, and his hands moved naturally.
Creak...
The sound of wood moving made Xiao Jian turn around.
Yun Yun walked out slowly, dressed in a white robe....his robe, to be exact.
Her tall figure fit surprisingly well in his clothes.
The only problem was that the chest area looked… a little too full and eye-catching.
Her once elegant, perfectly combed hair was now loose behind her back, making her look softer and even more beautiful.
Her clear eyes sparkled when she looked around.
"You're awake? Lunch is almost ready,"
Xiao Jian said with a small smile.
"It smells so good. Your cooking is amazing,"
Yun Yun said, sniffing the air with a gentle smile.
"Heh, it's nothing. Just practice.
I've eaten all kinds of things in the Magical Beast Mountain Range: herbs, beast meat… anything edible, I've tried it.
The best one is soft-bone rabbit. When you stew it, even the bones turn soft.
Very tasty. The only problem is....too little meat."
Xiao Jian laughed as he spoke.
"Oh, right. Today's lunch has spicy rabbit head. You should try it later."
"Sounds great. Thank you,"
Yun Yun smiled brightly, and for a moment Xiao Jian froze....she was too beautiful.
He quickly snapped out of it.
"Uh… how's your injury? My medicine helps your internal wounds a bit, but your Dou Qi seems sealed, right? That might slow your recovery."
Yun Yun didn't mind his momentary daze.
To her, it only showed that he was a normal person.....focused when healing her before, but still capable of getting flustered by a beautiful woman.
It made him feel more trustworthy, more real.
She walked closer, bringing a soft fragrance with her.
"My injury is fine now. But the sealing technique… it'll take a few days to undo."
"Oh, that's not bad. Your plans won't be delayed.
And I get to spend a few more days with a beautiful woman,"
Xiao Jian said seriously.
"You little thing…
You were so proper when treating me yesterday.
How come you're so playful now?"
Yun Yun shook her head helplessly.
That 'proper' attitude was fake.
I know myself very well.
If my enemy is a beautiful woman....her crime isn't that serious.
If she's not beautiful.....her crime is unforgivable.
I'm just a simple man who likes pretty girls.
And besides, what did I say wrong?
With your looks and your strength, someone like me.....a mere kid not even a Dou King yet....would never have the chance to live under the same roof as you.
This is a great memory on my journey.
