Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 547
Chapter 547 Ripples Of Warmth
Yun Xiao’s body stiffened slightly. She looked sideways and saw a moon-white figure moving towards her.
The moon-white robe was wrapped around her body, and only a few dark patterns were embroidered on her collar and sleeves. Her figure was slender and her face was like a crown jade. The corner of her mouth curled slightly, making her look like the beginning of winter snow. Her gaze was deep and distant, but it also contained dense worry.
When she saw this familiar figure, Yun Xiao felt very aggrieved, especially the weakness hidden deep within her heart. At this moment, it seemed to gradually reveal itself.
Unknowingly, the corners of his eyes were actually wet.
Especially when she saw a figure standing behind Rong Jin, the tears in Yun Xiao’s eyes could no longer stop.
Rong Jin walked over quickly. Liu ‘Er and Jiang’ Er also released their grip on Yun Xiao. Rong Jin pressed Yun Xiao into his embrace with a magnetic voice filled with apology, “I made you worry.”
She was hugged by the man and her nose was filled with the fragrance of a familiar magnolia flower. Although her tears could not be stopped, the corner of her mouth curved up slightly and she whispered, “Are your legs hurt?”
Although Rong Jin tried his best to conceal it, Yun Xiao still noticed that when Rong Jin walked over, his walking posture was a little strange. Especially when she was hugged by Rong Jin, Yun Xiao’s leg hit his leg. She clearly felt that Rong Jin’s body was a little tense at that moment.
Rong Jin didn’t expect that he had already tried his best to conceal it, but he was still able to see it from Yun Xiao’s eyes. The corner of his mouth curled into an apologetic expression. It felt so good to be missed like this. “It’s fine. Go back and rest for a while, then everything will be fine.”
Yun Xiao cried enough, He immediately struggled out of Rong Jin’s arms. Yun Xiao’s heart, which had been worried since last night, was finally released at this moment. Seeing so many people watching, Yun Xiao did not want Rong Jin to take off his clothes to see if he was injured. She only said softly, “It’s good that everything is fine.” Yun Xiao had a clear situation. Right now, they could not stay here for long while they were fleeing for life and death.
Rong Jin rubbed Yun Xiao’s hair, but Yun Xiao dodged it. She quickly wiped away the tears in her eyes. Yun Xiao looked apologetically at Yun Maozhe behind Rong Jin and said softly, “Daddy, are you alright?”
“Father is fine. What about your mother and the others?” Yun Maozhe saw that Yun Xiao was crying in front of Rong Jin. Instead, he heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. This daughter had always shown a very strong appearance. Actually, as a father, he knew very well that Yun Xiao’s life was also very difficult. However, he had never said anything. Now, there was finally someone who could let Yun Xiao release her emotions. He felt very comforted in his heart.
However, when he thought of Madam Yuan and Madam Sun, Yun Maozhe felt a deep pain in his eyes. He didn’t expect that he would come to pick up Madam Yuan and Madam Sun and bring them out of the capital. Who knew that the two of them would collude with outsiders and directly set the entire Yun Clan on fire? If Rong Jin hadn’t arrived in time, he would have probably died inside.
A crackling sound rang out. Yun Maozhe turned around and looked at the courtyard behind him. The beam collapsed and fell to the ground with a loud sound. The pain in his eyes became more and more obvious.
Seeing Yun Maozhe’s appearance, Yun Xiao clearly knew that what she had guessed was true. Judging from Yun Maozhe’s expression, it was likely that neither Madam Yuan nor Madam Sun had come out of the room.
Yun Xiao never thought that one day, Madam Yuan and Madam Sun would die in the fire. However, Yun Xiao did not feel any pity for them, nor did she feel any heartache. She just felt a little regretful, “Father, mother and the others are waiting for you in front of us. Quickly go over. Now that the secret passageway has been dug out, we can leave this place.”
Yun Maozhe looked at Yun Xiao and Rong Jin and nodded, “Alright, Daddy, leave this place first. Come over quickly.”
After Yun Maozhe finished speaking, he walked forward. The clothes on his body had been burned several holes because of the fire. His body was covered in black ash, and his back was staggering. He looked so old, as if he had aged ten years overnight.
Yun Xiao’s eyes were filled with pain. It seemed that this time, the matter between Madam Yuan and Madam Sun had dealt a great blow to Yun Maozhe. However, this matter could only be slowly thought through by Yun Maozhe and then slowly forgotten.
Jiang ‘Er and Liu’ Er looked at Yun Xiao respectfully and said loudly, “This servant will go and protect Master.”
After everyone left, Yun Xiao turned to look at Rong Jin beside her and said sternly, “Take off your clothes.”
Rong Jin was stunned for a moment, but his gaze was warm. He took a step forward, wanting to hold Yun Xiao in his arms and worry about her warmth. However, he didn’t want Yun Xiao to see his wounds. “They say that women are like tigers, and wives are less than twenty now. Could it be that desire is so strong?”
Yun Xiao’s face was slightly flushed by Rong Jin’s words. The corner of her mouth twitched slightly and she glared at Rong Jin fiercely. Now, the more Rong Jin dodged, the more it meant that his injuries were very serious. Being stopped by Rong Jin, Yun Xiao did not dare to move easily. She was afraid of touching Rong Jin’s wounds. She said with a calm expression, “Time is of the essence. Do you want me to examine you or tell you where you are injured?”
Rong Jin once again pressed Yun Xiao tightly into his embrace and whispered, “I’m really fine. Let’s hurry over as well.”
Unexpectedly, when Rong Jin’s words fell, Yun Xiao stared at Rong Jin with an embarrassed expression. There was a strong insistence written in Gu Jing’s calm gaze, as if he would never give up until he achieved his goal. She coldly snorted, “Rong Jin, I’m not joking with you!”
Seeing that he couldn’t dodge, Rong Jin said directly, “I was injured. However, I’ve already dealt with it. You don’t need to worry.”
Yun Xiao snorted coldly and ignored Rong Jin’s unwillingness from time to time. This time, she directly broke free from Rong Jin’s embrace. Afterwards, she squatted down and patted Rong Jin’s leg bit by bit. Then, she observed Rong Jin’s body’s reaction.
Soon, Yun Xiao felt Rong Jin’s body tense up when she patted one spot. She already understood that the wound was right here. Even if she squatted down and directly lifted Rong Jin’s robe, this time, Yun Xiao saw that Rong Jin’s mattresses and trousers had already been soaked in blood.
Seeing this, Yun Xiao’s eyes became a little more sparkling, but Yun Xiao tried her best to hold back. She gently pulled up Rong Jin’s mattress and trousers, exposing the wound at the corner of her thigh.
The surrounding tongues of fire reflected the wound on Rong Jin’s thigh. Yun Xiao could clearly see that there was a very long wound on his leg. The flesh around the wound was turning out, and fresh blood kept oozing out from it. It looked shocking.
Yun Xiao took a deep breath, then took out a bottle of medicine from her bosom and carefully applied medicine to the wound on Rong Jin’s thigh.
Rong Jin lowered his head and looked at Yun Xiao’s silence. He felt a slight pain in his heart. With such a concealed and cautious expression, she constantly provoked Rong Jin’s heart. “Xiao Xiao, don’t worry, this wound only looks terrifying. It actually doesn’t hurt.”
However, Rong Jin’s words seemed to ignite a gap in Yun Xiao’s heart. He coldly snorted. When his subordinate applied the medicine, he unconsciously increased his strength. He immediately felt that Rong Jin’s body was slightly stiff and his face was even paler. “Your body is much more honest than your mouth.”
Rong Jin smiled bitterly, allowing Yun Xiao to apply medicine to him, but his heart was warm.
However, when Yun Xiao got up and saw the blush in the corner of Yun Xiao’s eyes, her heart was twitching in pain. She sighed slightly and pulled Yun Xiao up. She said softly, “This injury is not frightening. I also lost an inch when you cried.” After knowing Yun Xiao for so long, it could be said that he rarely saw Yun Xiao cry. This could be said to be the first time.
Yun Xiao raised her head and stared at him with a burning gaze. She felt resentment in her heart, but more worried. During these three days in the palace, Yun Xiao was physically and mentally exhausted. Coupled with the news of Rong Jin’s accident yesterday, she had been worried until now. The fear in her heart seemed to be about to devour her.
Hearing his voice, even though Yun Xiao could clearly feel him in front of her, she couldn’t help but feel wronged. She lay in Rong Jin’s arms and cried loudly.
This cry was like a flood that broke a dam, and he could no longer control it. It was as if he wanted to cry out all the grievances of his previous life, all the endurance he had endured since his rebirth, and all the worries in front of him.
Yun Xiao’s cry was accompanied by the crackling sounds of flames burning in the surroundings, causing Rong Jin’s heart to feel a little sad. He did not say anything, but subconsciously tightened his grip on Yun Xiao’s body, allowing her to cry happily in his arms.
Yun Xiao was so tired from crying, Finally, he raised his head and looked at Rong Jin. He stared at the gentle face and said, Yun Xiao only felt a sense of satisfaction that she had never felt before. She threatened in a low voice, “In the future, you can’t hide anything from me. Also, promise me that after we return, you will take good care of your body and not let yourself get hurt again. Remember, in the future, not only you, but also me and our children will be in your life.”
On Rong Jin’s body, there were countless wounds that Yun Xiao knew about. Yun Xiao didn’t know, but she didn’t know how many more.
As a doctor, Rong Jin didn’t know about this, but he chose to ignore it.
Yun Xiao’s black eyes were filled with shadows. Her knuckled fingers touched Yun Xiao’s cheeks. Rong Jin felt that he had never been satisfied before. “Alright, I promise you.” As he spoke, he wanted to carry Yun Xiao up, but Yun Xiao dodged him and said, “I can walk on my own. Let’s hurry over.”
Rong Jin frowned, “You haven’t had a good rest for three days and three nights. Do you want to sleep first?”
There’s no need. I’ve already slept for a while. I don’t dare to sleep until I see my parents and the others are safe. Yunxiao didn’t forget county princess Hui Ning’s words. Today, the capital was ravaged and Yun Clan was burned. It’s definitely a credit to county princess Huining.
Moreover, there were Zhou Jingyan and Xiao Yuqi eyeing them covetously. If Yunxiao did not see that they were safe, how could she be at ease?
