Days passed, and Shan Xiaoya’s wounds significantly improved. Though still bedridden, her complexion was no longer pale but more rosy. What made Shan Xiaoya happy was that she hadn’t seen the barbaric man who had done this to her these past days. Not seeing him was the greatest blessing for her.
Ever since Hu Yannan learned that Dan Xiaoye had awakened, he never went to see her again. However, listening to the maidservant’s daily report about her activities became a necessary task. Although she lay in bed all day, everything she did was beyond Hu Yannan’s expectations and made him curious about her. Every woman encountering such a situation would typically cry and complain, but she was different – positive and optimistic, with an extremely strong life force that made Hu Yannan doubt whether she was truly the one who was injured…
On this day, Dan Xiaoye lay on the bed, allowing the maidservant to change the medicine on her wounded back. When the bandage was removed, the pain from the wound made her unconsciously furrow her brow. When she saw a pair of unfamiliar shoes, her frown deepened…
Hu Yannan came out of his study and unconsciously approached his former bedroom, peering through the door to see the maidservant changing her medicine. Wanting to know the extent of her injuries, he walked in…
Shan Xiaoya walked towards the gate with a pleasant mood. Her body was now fully recovered, and she needed to find a way back. She couldn’t stay in this era. Her typically agile self had become vulnerable. As she was thinking, she arrived at the gate. The guard blocked her path with his weapon.
“Stop! No one is allowed to leave the mansion without the general’s order.”
Shan Xiaoya glanced at the guard and said expressionlessly, “Does the general’s wife also need permission to go out?”
The guard looked at Shan Xiaoya in confusion. She was clearly a stranger, and her unapproachable expression was not something an ordinary person could fake.
Shan Xiaoya noticed their thoughts and coldly nodded. The guards looked at each other, and no one spoke. They had not received any orders about whether the new wife needed the general’s permission to leave.
