Sir Song, do you want to pledge yourself to me?

Chapter 36 I Won't Think Too Much

Ji Nuan put away the silver needle and confirmed that all the blood clots in Song Huai's brain had dissipated.

Song Jinbai asked: "When will he wake up?"

Ji Nuan wiped her hands carefully and replied, "The blood clot in his brain has been cleared. He will wake up any moment."

"I'll have someone guard here." Song Jinbai said, "Butler Wu is already waiting outside. Let's go to the West Flower Hall first."

Ji Nuan looked up and smiled: "Great! Let's see what delicious food Uncle Wu prepared today."

Seeing that she was becoming more and more comfortable in the Song residence, Song Jinbai couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips.

This was Ji Nuan's last time to come to the Song residence to treat Song Huai. Butler Wu asked the kitchen chef to use his best skills to prepare a table full of dishes, hoping to use this opportunity to make a better impression on Miss Ji.

During this time, Xiao Si, who was in charge of looking after Song Huai, came to the West Flower Hall. Seeing Ji Nuan eating with relish, Song Jinbai motioned Xiao Si to wait on the side.

"But is there any news from Song Huai?" Ji Nuan finished her meal, put down her chopsticks, and turned her gaze to Song Jinbai. She had already noticed the waiter waiting nearby and guessed that there was news from Song Huai.

"Tell me, what's the matter?" Song Jinbai turned to ask the servant, with a barely perceptible hint of urgency in his tone.

The servant hurriedly reported: "Sir, Guard Song Huai has woken up."

"Let's go and take a look." Song Jinbai immediately said to Ji Nuan, with joy shining in his eyes.

Ji Nuan nodded slightly and replied "hmm", then stood up with Song Jinbai and walked towards the room where Song Huai was.

Song Huai leaned weakly on the bed. When he saw Song Jinbai leading people into the room, he tried to struggle to stand up and salute.

"Don't move, just sit." Ji Nuan quickly stepped forward to stop him, saying, "You just woke up and your body is still very weak. You have been lying in bed for a while, and your leg muscles need to get used to standing for a while."

Upon hearing this, Song Huai looked at Ji Nuan, followed her advice, and sat down again.

Song Jinbai introduced: "This is Miss Ji who treated you."

Then he asked, “How do you feel now?”

Song Huai hesitated for a moment, his face flushed like a shy young wife. "Sir, I haven't eaten in a long time. I'm starving. Now I just want to gnaw on two big pork elbows."

Upon hearing this, Ji Nuan couldn't help but chuckle, "While you were unconscious, you could only rely on ginseng soup to stay alive. It's normal for you to feel hungry."

Then, she turned to Song Jinbai and suggested, "Let's have someone make some porridge. Song Huai just woke up, so he should eat light and easily digestible food for the next two days to help his stomach adjust."

"Miss Ji is absolutely right. Don't even think about Big Elbow now." Song Jinbai said jokingly with a smile on his face.

Song Huai's face fell instantly, and Ji Nuan and Song Jinbai couldn't help but laugh softly.

Ji Nuan took out a big apple from her sleeve and handed it to Song Huai, "Stand up first." Then she carefully reminded him, "If you want to get out of bed and move around, you can ask someone to help you walk so that your leg muscles can slowly adapt to walking."

Song Huai took the big apple handed to him by Ji Nuan, and a bright smile bloomed on his face. "Thank you, Miss Ji, for not only saving my life, but also giving me food to fill my stomach. If you have any orders in the future, just say one word, and I will go through fire and water without hesitation. If I am unable to do it, you are here." After that, he couldn't wait to hold the apple and take a bite.

Song Jinbai chuckled and said jokingly, "You're quite good at using me as a favor!"

Song Huai had long been accustomed to Song Jinbai's tolerance towards him, so he took these joking words as the adult's agreement.

So, he expressed his gratitude with great joy: "Thank you, sir!"

"You should have a good rest and don't be impatient for success." Song Jinbai did not forget to remind Song Huai before leaving. At the same time, he turned to the servant and instructed, "Take good care of Guard Song Huai and don't slack off at all." After that, he and Ji Nuan turned around and left together.

After Ji Nuan said goodbye to Song Jinbai and Butler Wu one by one at the front hall door, she turned and left, but Song Jinbai followed her.

Ji Nuan couldn't help but cast a questioning look.

Song Jinbai coughed slightly unnaturally and explained, "I...just wanted to go out for a walk, and I'm going the same way as you."

Upon hearing this, Ji Nuan asked jokingly as they walked, "Are all of you prefects so free?"

Song Jinbai smiled: "Not idle either, I've dealt with all my official business this morning."

Cui Jingrang buried in official documents: So what am I doing now?

Since they were going together, Ji Nuan casually asked, "Where are you planning to go, Mr. Song?"

Song Jinbai: "It's just ahead, on South Street." Ji Nuan must pass through South Street and leave the city from the South Gate to go home.

"Sir Song is going to Ping'an Clinic?" Ping'an Clinic is also on South Street. Song Jinbai's relationship with Ping'an Clinic made Ji Nuan subconsciously think that he was going to Ping'an Clinic for something.

Song Jinbai followed her meaning, neither confirming nor denying, and replied: "Well, I'll go over and take a look."

As they continued walking, Ji Nuan noticed a small roadside stall. The stall owner was enthusiastically displaying her sachets. Ji Nuan picked one up, sniffed it, and said with a smile, "It's an insect repellent incense."

When the stall owner heard this, she immediately praised with a smile on her face: "Oh, girl, you have really good taste. You can tell it's an insect repellent incense as soon as you smell it. Looking at your delicate skin, you really need to wear such an insect repellent sachet. There are many mosquitoes in the summer. With this, you can avoid the pain of being bitten." As she spoke, she picked up several sachets of different styles and tried to recommend them to Ji Nuan.

Ji Nuan chose a light blue one, the color just matched her skirt today.

Suddenly, someone on the street screamed loudly, and the horse went crazy and out of control, running rampant on the street. The scene was suddenly in chaos.

Ji Nuan was trying the sachet on her body. Without any hesitation, Song Jinbai quickly put his arms around Ji Nuan's slender waist, turned around and took her away from the stall, avoiding the out-of-control horse.

Ji Nuan never expected that this clichéd movie scene would happen to her. After all, if there was any real danger, she could avoid it in an instant.

Ji Nuan raised her hands, stepped out of Song Jinbai's embrace, and smiled awkwardly: "Haha, I know that Lord Song is eager to save people, I won't think too much about it."

Song Jinbai felt a sense of loss, especially after hearing Ji Nuan's words, "I won't think too much about it." He admitted that he did have feelings for Ji Nuan, but it was clear that Ji Nuan didn't think that way.

Before Song Jinbai could think any more, Ji Nuan leaped out. She saw that little brat Chen Yu was overestimating his own abilities and chasing after a crazy horse.

Ji Nuan was agile and her movements were smooth. In a few leaps, she quickly rushed in front of Chen Yu and caught up with Crazy Horse. She suddenly jumped up, raised her leg high and kicked the horse's head hard. Crazy Horse fell to the ground with a thud, raising a cloud of dust.

Song Jinbai, who followed closely behind, asked nervously, "Are you okay?"

Ji Nuan brushed off the dust on her body, smiled easily, raised her hand and said, "I'm fine, nothing happened!" Her smile was bright and confident, which instantly dissipated most of Song Jinbai's feeling of loss.

"Nuannuan, you helped me a lot again!" Chen Yu caught up with her breathlessly, his gratitude to Ji Nuan beyond words.

Ji Nuan was a little confused and asked doubtfully, "What's going on? How did you get Crazy Horse onto the street?"

Chen Yu wiped the sweat from his forehead and explained, "This horse was originally my mount. It was fine when I brought it out. I got off the horse to buy something just now, and it suddenly ran away like crazy. I don't know what happened to it." As he spoke, a look of helplessness and annoyance appeared on his face.

Song Jinbai listened from the side, frowned slightly, and offered his own suggestion: "A healthy horse will not go crazy for no reason. It's best to have someone check what it ate or if there is anything abnormal with its body." His tone revealed an unusually keen insight into the matter.

Ji Nuan also nodded and said bluntly, "You might have offended someone again. It's obvious that someone has tampered with it."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yu's face changed slightly, and he said meaningfully: "Who else could it be? But I will naturally take care of these things. The most important thing now is to take this horse back and find out the cause. Nuannuan, and Lord Song, thank you so much today. I will come back to thank you specially." After that, he turned around and looked for people nearby to help deal with the crazy horse.
