The Empress of Ten Reincarnations Just to Find Me

Then, Chen Yue seemed to have suddenly thought of a solution, and a glimmer of light flashed across his originally anxious face.

She hurriedly walked up to Chen Han, squatted down, leaned close to Chen Han's ear, and whispered, "Chen Han, I'm going out for a while. Don't worry, I will be back soon. You have to hold on." After that, Chen Yue patted Chen Han's shoulder gently, as if to give him strength.

Then, Chen Yue stood up and walked to Xiao Mengyue's side. He tried to squeeze out a gentle smile on his face, touched Xiao Mengyue's head, and said softly:

"Xiao Mengyue, I'm going out for a while. You have to stay here quietly. Don't be afraid of this big snake. It's very friendly to us. Just take good care of your brother here, okay?"

Xiao Mengyue opened her big round eyes, nodded obediently, and replied in a baby voice: "Yes, sister, I will be a good boy. You have to come back soon."

Chen Yue gently pinched Xiao Mengyue's face again, then turned around and prepared to leave.

Later, when Chen Han heard that Chen Yue was going out, he became extremely anxious and spoke with difficulty. His voice was so weak that it seemed like it would break at any moment:

"Chen Yue, you...are you trying to kill yourself? This forest is already full of dangers. Not to mention how dangerous it is, there are people from the Daoyang Sect outside now. You're injured, what will happen if you go out..."

Chen Yue paused after hearing this, turned around and forced a smile, but tried to make his tone sound more relaxed:

"It's okay, Chen Han. I know my limits and will be careful. Your injury can't be delayed. You saved me once before, and now I will definitely treat you seriously and do my best to make you better."

After saying that, Chen Yue no longer hesitated, turned around resolutely, and walked quickly out of the cave, leaving Chen Han lying there.

He looked at the other person's departing back, his heart filled with complicated emotions.

His eyes fell on the herbs in the cave. Chen Yue did not take the herbs away, which meant that he had no intention of packing up and running away.

This made him fall into deep thought...

...

After a long time, Chen Han lay there, his brows furrowed, his expression complicated and worried. He was really worried about Chen Yue, and the worry in his heart was like a heavy dark cloud, pressing him down and making him feel a little breathless.

He tilted his head slightly and looked at Xiao Mengyue who was sitting obediently beside him, and whispered in a voice so weak that it was almost inaudible: "Sister, look outside...what's the weather like?" Chen Han's eyes were filled with anxiety and expectation.

After listening to her brother's words, Xiao Mengyue blinked her big round eyes, nodded slightly, then stood up carefully and walked towards the cave entrance with small steps.

After returning, Xiao Mengyue's expression was calm, but there was a hint of worry in her eyes, "Brother, the sun is almost gone..."

When Chen Han heard Xiao Mengyue's answer, the already heavy worry in his heart increased even more.

The sun was about to set, but Chen Yue had not returned yet. In this vast forest, people from Daoyang Sect were searching everywhere for her, and she was still injured. When Chen Han thought of this, his heart was inexplicably tightened.

Xiao Mengyue lowered her head, pouted her lips slightly, and murmured to herself with a worried look on her face: "Why hasn't my sister come back yet..." Her childish voice was full of anxiety, as if she was about to cry in the next second.

Not long after these words were spoken, bursts of sound were heard outside the cave entrance. The sound came with pauses, and it was the sound of shoes stepping on stones.

Chen Han suddenly became nervous. He struggled to stand up, his eyes fixed on the direction of the cave entrance. He hoped that Chen Yue would return safely, but was also afraid that it was someone from Daoyang Sect who came looking for him. The complicated emotions made his already weak body tremble even more.

Xiao Mengyue was also frightened by the sudden sound. She hurried to Chen Han and grabbed the corner of Chen Han's clothes tightly with her little hands.

As the footsteps got closer, the atmosphere became more solemn. The two men's hearts were pounding, and even the big snake who was sleeping late couldn't help but open his eyes.

The next second, the person who had heard the footsteps finally came into view. It was Chen Yue. She had lost all her usual elegant demeanor. She was covered in dust and dirt, with a leaf hanging from her hair. As she gasped for breath, the leaf swayed, looking rather comical.

When Chen Yue saw Chen Han and Xiao Mengyue's alert expressions, he quickly put down the things in his hands, put his hands on his waist and said with a smile:

"It's me. Look how scared you are. Why do you hope so much that I won't come back?" There was a hint of sarcasm in her voice, trying to ease the solemn atmosphere, but her panting, which had not yet subsided, also revealed her fatigue and difficulty in traveling all the way.

When Chen Han saw Chen Yue's familiar figure, a glint of unconcealable joy flashed across his eyes. He ignored everything else and said excitedly:

"Great, you're back!" The voice was full of joy, and the body that was originally tense due to worry seemed to relax a little.

But as soon as he said this, Chen Han realized that his reaction seemed a little too enthusiastic. He always felt that this behavior seemed a bit weird.

Then he quickly pretended to be calm and added, "I'm glad you're back." But the smile and relieved look in his eyes could not be hidden.

Xiao Mengyue didn't have so many thoughts. When she saw Chenyue, she immediately jumped up excitedly, hugged Chenyue's legs tightly, her little face filled with a bright smile, and shouted happily: "Sister is back, so great!" The crisp voice echoed in the cave, dispersing the previous solemn atmosphere.

Little Mengyue raised her little face, her eyes sparkling, and said crisply, "Sister, brother was really worried about you just now. The sun was about to set and you hadn't come back yet, so brother asked me to go see what the weather was like outside. He's been waiting for you to come back here."

As she spoke, Xiao Mengyue winked at Chen Han mischievously.

Chen Han sighed helplessly, with a somewhat amusing and helpless expression on his face.

Chen Yue was stunned for a moment after hearing Xiao Mengyue's words, but then a touch of emotion and warmth flashed in her eyes. She stepped forward and said, "Okay, I'll help you heal your wounds first. Please wait a moment."

After Chen Yue finished speaking, she began to use her energy to clean up the cave. She waved her hands gently, and the energy slowly overflowed. Wherever it touched, the originally messy cave gradually became neat and orderly.

The debris, dead branches, and other debris on the ground were easily cleared away, and the dust that had accumulated in the corners disappeared. Before long, the entire cave was completely refreshed, clean and tidy.

The things she had just brought back were also neatly arranged, either on flat stones or on small platforms specially cleared on the side of the cave wall, looking very organized.

Although the cave at this moment still looks like a cave, for some reason it inexplicably has the feeling of a little girl's boudoir.

Chen Han lay there, looking at the transformed cave, and couldn't help but secretly complain in his heart: "She is indeed the eldest princess. Her cleaning skills are really great. She can even make this broken cave look presentable. It really suits her delicate personality."

Then Chen Yue tidied her hair and put it up, took the herbs and put them on a stone. She knew some herbs and knew how to use them. She first put the herbs for external application into the slightly concave stone she had just brought back, and then used tools to slowly crush them. Not long after, she brought the crushed herbs to Chen Han.

Chen Yue blushed slightly and said embarrassedly, "Um...take off your shirt first." The atmosphere was a bit weird at this time.

Chen Han also felt strange at once. He avoided her gaze and stammered, "Why...why do you have to take off your clothes..."

Chen Yue panicked upon hearing what Chen Han said. Her face flushed crimson as she said anxiously and angrily, "I applied the medicine through your clothes! You're a grown man, and you're afraid I'll take advantage of you! I worked so hard to find tools to make the medicine, and I took the trouble to clean up this cave for you, all so I could properly heal you. And yet you're still being so timid! What a disgrace!"

After saying that, Chen Yue turned his head away.

After hearing what Chen Yue said, Chen Han felt very sorry for her. After all, she was a girl working so hard for him, but he was still embarrassed about taking off his clothes. It was really inappropriate.

He gritted his teeth, made up his mind, and reached out to quickly unbutton his shirt and took it off, revealing his scarred upper body, but his eyes were still somewhat dodging uncomfortably.
