Transmigrating into a female supporting role in a book

At this moment, I am exhausted both physically and mentally. I don’t want to say anything and do nothing.

After returning to my residence, I washed, changed my clothes, and lay on the couch. I was too lazy to move, but my heart was still uncomfortable. Even if I closed my eyes, I couldn't fall asleep.

After an unknown amount of time, I heard someone outside talking in a low voice. I vaguely heard them mention the Marquis, and then someone pushed the door open.

It must be Situ Jue. I quickly stretched out my arms, spread my legs, and made a big "Z" shape, pretending that I was asleep to discourage him from staying.

Sure enough, he walked to the bed and stopped, as if looking at me.

I tried to keep my breathing steady and pretend to be asleep. I could feel him tucking in the quilt for me and touching my cheek.

"Yaoyao?" He called me softly, and the height of his voice seemed to come from my ear.

I guessed that he was probably lying on the edge of the bed, so I remained unmoved and continued to pretend to be asleep.

"I will also be leaving with the army tomorrow morning. It will take at least a year or two, or at least... Once the border war is over, I will come back as soon as possible. Wait for me to come back."

After he finished speaking, he came up and kissed me on the forehead, then stood up and walked out.

When I heard him pull the door, I couldn't pretend anymore, "Situ Jue!"

"Hmm?" He stopped and turned to look over.

"Don't get hurt, come back safely."

"Okay! I promise you." He opened the door and went out.

It was quiet outside and I completely lost sleep. I couldn't tell whether I felt physically or mentally uncomfortable. I wanted to cry but I had no tears. I wanted to talk to someone but I didn't know who to talk to.

When it was daybreak, I wanted to go out to see if Situ Jue had left, but my legs were so heavy that I couldn't move at all.

Before the expedition, Situ Jue was appointed as the Grand Marshal of the Army by the Emperor, the highest rank among military commanders. Not only did the Emperor and all the officials see him off, but even many common people in the capital came to see the legendary figure who had repeatedly repelled the Zhou army. The old lady also went to see me off with Lian'er. After they returned home, they heard that the old lady didn't say much about my claiming to be sick and not appearing in the farewell team.

In the afternoon, I was not surprised at all when Sun An appeared in front of me with a medicine box on his back.

"I'm not sick, I'm just in a bad mood." I lay on the table and refused to have my pulse taken.

"Missing a man?" His words instantly ignited me.

"You're a doctor too! You look a bit serious!"

Seeing me getting angry, he smiled instead, "But I'm still here with you, right? How about we go up the mountain together tomorrow?"

"Don't go!"

"Take you to see something fun."

"dont see!"

"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and no one else has ever seen it..." Seeing that I was still slumped in the seat, he put away the medicine box and pretended to leave. "In this case, I won't force you. Don't regret it later."

Although I thought he might be trying to provoke me, I was still a little curious. I sat up straight and called him, "When do we leave tomorrow?"

The weather was really good the next day. I changed into men's clothes and went out with Sun An after meeting him.

When we went out, Sun An handed me an empty bamboo basket to carry and chose to walk.

"Go collect herbs? What's so interesting about that?" I was a little hesitant at the time.

He lowered his voice mysteriously and said, "Collecting herbs is just a cover. The thing is in the mountains. You will know when you go there."

Let's believe him for once. We walked for about an hour before entering the mountain. We walked for another hour. The surrounding forests were thick and the grass was deep. It was even more desolate. I could hardly see the road. I followed behind Sun An, taking every step carefully, for fear of stepping on something strange.

"How far is it? Are you lost?"

"How could we get lost!" He took my hand and pointed to a cave in front of us and said, "It's right here."
