Chapter 94: Unafraid of Getting Beaten Up Again

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“It’s a long story,” she started.

“Well, let’s make it short.”

The man turned and looked at Jiang Peihuan with a curious look.

If not for the man’s familiar face, Jiang Peihuan would have thought that the person in front of her was pretending to be Xiao Nanye.

However, seeing the man’s interested look, Jiang Peihuan quickly explained everything to him, including stuff about Meng Yi and Xiao Junhao.

As Jiang Peihuan spoke, Xiao Nanye was quiet, listening carefully. When she finished, his expression was calm and there was no surprise.

Looking at the man, Jiang Peihuan had to ask, “Did you already know all of this?”

“I knew a bit about Xiao Junhao, but 1 didn’t know that his people were close to your father.”

This was something that Xiao Nanye wasn’t aware of, and even Jiang Peihuan wouldn’t have known if it wasn’t for something that happened in her past life.

Seeing Jiang Peihuan’s silence, Xiao Nanye spoke softly, “So, you’re worried that your second uncle’s new wife might do something bad to the Jiang family?”

“Yes, 1 don’t know what her backers are planning.”

“If I’m guessing right, Xiao Junhao probably sent your second uncle’s new wife to spy on the Jiang family.”

“But, if you’re still worried, I have a way to help you solve this problem completely.”

“What’s that?”

“Kill her.”

As soon as Jiang Peihuan finished speaking, Xiao Nanye replied directly. Hearing this, Jiang Peihuan was lost for words.

Looking at the man, she spoke softly, “Even if we ignore the special circumstances of Aunt Mei, if we kill her, won’t there be others? We can’t just kill everyone who comes.”

“Then there is another way.”

Jiang Peihuan didn’t respond, opting to gaze at the man in silence. Meeting her questioning look, Xiao Nanye continued, “A thief can only steal for so long. But no one can be on guard forever. So, to deal with this, all you need to do is allow your second uncle to fall into their trap a few more times.”

“One or two instances, and he might still feel indebted due to the life-saving favor. But if it occurs too often, even if your second uncle wants to be considerate, your father would object.”

Hearing Xiao Nanye’s words, a light flickered in Jiang Peihuan’s eyes.

After knowing that Jian Mei was sent by Meng Yi, her initial thought was to guard against and monitor the woman. She hadn’t considered allowing Jian Mei to expose herself.

Nevertheless, she had to admit, Xiao Nanye’s strategy was quite brilliant.

“Your Highness, let me change your bandages first.”

While she spoke, Jiang Peihuan had already grabbed a bottle of medicine from the vanity table, a leftover from Xiao Nanye’s visit the previous night.

She placed the ceramic bottle on the table, gently unwinding the handkerchief around the man’s injured arm.

The wound was showing signs of healing. Jiang Peihuan carefully smeared on the medicine, followed by wrapping a fresh handkerchief around the treated wound.

“It’s alright now. The wound is healing. Try not to disturb it for a couple of days…”

As Jiang Peihuan was still talking, Xiao Nanye unexpectedly bent over, lightly kissing her cheek.

He quickly pulled back. The fleeting kiss, light as a dragonfly touching water, felt like a feather landing on Jiang Peihuan’s heart, causing a tickling sensation.

“You?”

She lifted her gaze towards the man in front of her, utterly startled.

Meeting her eyes, Xiao Nanye couldn’t resist circling his arms around her neck.

However, Jiang Peihuan reacted swiftly this time. Before the man could lean in, she forcefully pushed him away.

Immediately, she drew out her waist-length whip.

Seeing the whip lunge towards him, Xiao Nanye quickly retreated. The stool he had just been sitting on was now in pieces.

The man promptly darted out of the door, glancing back at the woman by the entrance. He chuckled softly, “Huan Er, are you planning on murdering your own husband?”

Upon hearing Xiao Nanye’s words, Jiang Peihuan remained silent, but her lips curled up into a smile.

Seeing the smile on her face, Xiao Nanye was stunned.

At that moment, Jiang Peihuan flicked her wrist, and the whip on the ground surged towards his face.

A gust of wind raced past his nose. Xiao Nanye watched as the whip whizzed past his face, his expression shifting as Jiang Peihuan lunged at him.

Realizing Jiang Peihuan was serious, Xiao Nanye no longer dared to underestimate her and began to engage in the fight.

From a tree nearby, Han Feng, hearing the commotion, quickly opened his eyes. Upon witnessing the unfolding scene, he was stunned.

After a moment’s hesitation, he silently stayed where he was and pretended not to see anything.

Afraid of hurting Jiang Peihuan, Xiao Nanye didn’t dare to take out his folding fan and was forced to evade bare-handed. Soon, his wrist got entwined in Jiang Peihuan’s whip. Before he could react, she kicked him onto the ground.

“Who dares to barge into the General’s Mansion?”

As Xiao Nanye fell to the ground, the entrance gate to the Plum Garden swung open. Leading the pack was Deputy General Liu.

“King Cheng?”

Looking at the person who fell to the ground, Deputy General Liu’s eyes widened in surprise.

Xiao Nanye clutched his chest, wincing in pain, a grimace appearing at the corner of his mouth.

“Miss, are you alright?”

Deputy General Liu could tell at first glance who was in a predicament. Yet when he approached Jiang Peihuan, he still softly asked her.

Upon hearing Deputy General Liu’s words, Jiang Peihuan shook her head, “I’m fine.”

Following this, Jiang Peihuan descended the steps, looking at Xiao Nanye as he got up from the ground. She said in a soft voice, “It’s getting late, Your Highness. You should head back.”

If it weren’t for the constant throbbing in his chest, Xiao Nanye would’ve believed that the kick he just received was only a figment of his imagination.

“Deputy General Liu, all of you should return and rest.”

“Yes, Miss,” came the response.

After saying this, Jiang Peihuan headed straight into her room. Once the door was shut behind her, she touched her face. The warmth from his touch seemed to linger on her skin.

Outside the room.

Seeing Xiao Nanye scaling the wall to leave, Han Feng hurriedly followed him. Observing Xiao Nanye seated on Zhui Yun’s back, he couldn’t help but ask, “Master, what on earth did you do to make the Miss so furious?”

Recalling the tender sensation from moments ago, Xiao Nanye’s lips curled up in a smile. But upon hearing Han Feng’s question, the man cast a frosty glance at him. “You’re quite the loyal shadow guard, watching your master get beaten and not stepping in.”

Han Feng was left speechless.

“Master, you can’t blame me. When you and the Miss got physical, I didn’t know whose side to take.”

It seemed wiser to stay out of the way, avoiding getting caught in the crossfire of an immortal battle.

Xiao Nanye just looked at him coldly, choosing not to respond.

“Master, will you be coming back tomorrow night?”

Hearing Han Feng’s question, Xiao Nanye gripped Zhui Yun’s reins tighter and gave a nod. “I will.”

Upon seeing Xiao Nanye’s nod, Han Feng appeared at a loss for words. Was he truly unafraid of getting beaten up again?

“However, it won’t be in the night; it will be during the day.”

“You’re going to climb over the wall in broad daylight? Aren’t you scared that the general will throw you out?”

“Why do I need to climb the wall? Can’t I just use the front entrance?”
