Chapter 457: Chapter 426, Sanchuan Valley_1

After dinner, Xiao Yeyang looked at Daohua, “Do you want to head back to the capital city, or go to Taohua Village?”

Daohua glanced over, “Why?”

Xiao Yeyang glanced at the sky, “It’s already getting late, I’ll take you back.”

Daohua quickly shook her head, “I’m not going back.”

Xiao Yeyang froze for a moment, then chuckled, “What, do you want to play here for a few more days?”

Daohua blinked, “Can’t I?”

...

Xiao Yeyang sized up Daohua, “Are you serious or just joking?”

Daohua, “Of course I’m serious.”

Xiao Yeyang fell silent for a while, “I’m very happy you came to see me, and now that you have, and have also applied medicine to my wound, you should go back.”

He wished he could spend more time with Daohua, but having a young lady stay overnight outside would harm her reputation.

Daohua, “…Who said I was here to see you? I came to find Jing Cao.”

Xiao Yeyang held his peace, noticing her evasive gaze but not calling it out, he smiled, “Didn’t I say that I would take care of the Jing Cao matter?”

Daohua gave him a sidelong glance, “You are all bandaged up now, how can I rely on you?”

Xiao Yeyang felt a hint of rejection and after observing Daohua in silence for a while, asked again, “Are you really not going back?”

Daohua shook her head, “My third and fourth brothers will come over later.” It wouldn’t be too improper with her two brothers accompanying her.

Xiao Yeyang turned his head towards Defu.

Defu immediately said, “There’s a clean room next door, no one else dares to come over here.”

Xiao Yeyang pointed at Daohua and Wang Manman, “The two of them came over, no one noticed anything unusual, right?”

Defu shook his head, “Third Master and Fourth Master took a back path with Miss Yan, no one saw them.”

Daohua interjected, “You can relax, even if someone did see us, they would just think Manman and I were servants. I’m more worried about being discovered than you are; I’ve been careful all the way here. Besides, there’s Yan Ying, with him covering our backs, no one will find out.”

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yeyang nodded and then stepped out of the room, summoning his Hidden Guard, instructing them to guard the courtyard well and prevent outsiders from intruding before re-entering the room.

“Prepare two sets of soldiers’ clothing for them.”

Defu nodded and left the room.

Xiao Yeyang smiled at Daohua, “Since you are not leaving, I will accompany you around.”

Daohua shook her head, “Let’s not for today. Your fever has just gone down; what if you catch a chill and the fever comes back?” She said, looking at Xiao Yeyang with dissatisfaction, “Such a big wound, and you’re not resting properly.”

Xiao Yeyang looked at the sky, “The day is still young, what shall we do staying inside the room?”

Daohua, “You do your thing, and I…” she said, picking up a book from beside the bed, “will read a book.”

Xiao Yeyang chuckled, “As you’ve said, I am now a patient, what is there for me to be busy with?”

Daohua was silent for a moment, then looked at the book in her hand, “This has a map of the areas around Ningmen Pass, you can show me where you’ve found Jing Cao.”

Saying this, she placed the book on the table and sat down on a stool herself.

Xiao Yeyang nodded, sat next to Daohua, flipped through the book, and began pointing out locations to her.

“There is some in this valley.”

“At the base of this mountain too.”

“And here, and here…”
