Reborn as a Merchant Girl, the General's Beloved

Many candles were lit in the yard. In the spacious patio, more than a dozen medicine racks more than one meter tall were all empty, with water dripping from them.

There is an identical corridor surrounding the courtyard, connecting several rooms together. There are bamboo curtains under the corridor, making it difficult to see clearly.

"Doctor! Doctor!" She stood in the rain and shouted loudly.

The bamboo curtain was lifted up, and a tall figure stood in the light with his back to the light, like a god, which shocked Anan, who was feeling anxious in the rain.

His voice was clear and gentle: "What's the matter?"

Anan brushed away the wet hair that was stuck to his cheeks and said quickly, "Butler Wang fainted."

"Wait a moment." He turned and went behind the curtain. When he came back a moment later, he had a medicine box on his back and an umbrella in his hand.

Although she came to help Butler Wang find a doctor, she followed him on the return journey, which took her a lot less time than the journey there.

Annan sat down in the corridor, staring absentmindedly at the gently swaying paper umbrella.

Although Nie Jinyun had shielded her mostly with the umbrella, and he was almost soaked on the way back, she was not caught in the rain, but her clothes were already soaked. In addition, she had been running on the mountain trails, and she felt extremely sleepy at the moment. Facing completely unfamiliar people and environment, she was on guard, but she closed her eyes unconsciously.

The dim world was scorching hot, and that familiar hoarse voice rang in my ears again: "Live well."

She was extremely anxious and just wanted to reach out towards the voice, but she couldn't move at all. The voice seemed to drift farther and farther away. She was anxious and sad at the same time. She struggled with all her might and suddenly opened her eyes.

Yuan Fu leaned forward and asked in astonishment, "What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere else?"

She let out a long sigh, propped herself up and sat up. She caught a glimpse of a coarse cloth medicine bag hanging on the head of the bed. The faint fragrance of medicine mingled with her nostrils, refreshing her heart.

"Cousin." The culprit Yuan Fu held her hand with a smile that was 50% obedient and 50% ingratiating, and acted coquettishly.

The first time I met Yuan Fu, she was Anan. Now she addressed me in such a respectful manner, so it must be something bad. Just as I was about to ask her, I heard footsteps at the door.

Anan looked up and saw the doctor who had shielded her from the rain that night slowly walking in. When she looked up, she caught a glimpse of a tiny red dot at the corner of his eye and understood instantly.

Nie Jinyun was indeed a handsome man like the sun and the moon in one's arms. His every move was gentle and elegant, and his every frown and smile was as soft as jade. He was even better than the banished immortal-like person in the painting.

Looking at Yuan Fu again, she seemed to have been bewitched. She had lost all her noise as she was at home. She hid aside and glanced at me fearfully, looking so obedient and pitiful.

Anan couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth and smiled.

Jinyun smiled back at her, sat on the stool in front of the couch, and finished taking her pulse. He seemed very satisfied, paused, and said to her very softly: "Just take some rest, but you must worry less. Think more positively when encountering things. No matter how difficult the situation is, there will always be a way, right?"

His words were very obscure, but seemed to have a hidden meaning. Anan glanced at Yuan Fu who was cowering in the corner, and saw her secretly bowing and smiling at him in a flattering manner. He did not ask any further questions, but just nodded and said yes, and thanked him politely.

Jinyun continued to speak words to comfort her until a servant outside called him, and then he left gracefully.

As soon as he left, Yuan Fu ran over, wrapped her arms around her neck and cheered, "Anan, you are my biological cousin!"

Anan couldn't push her away, so he simply poked her under the armpit with his finger. She covered her chest and rolled away laughing, giggling.

The people who had just entered the room also laughed when they heard this, chanting, "Amitabha, he is finally awake!"

Seeing that the person was unfamiliar, An Nan looked at Yuan Fu.

Yuan Fu quickly stopped laughing and said to her, "This is the wife of Steward Wang."
