In order to survive, she forced herself to have a happy ending with the yandere villain.

A pitch-black forest, dotted with twinkling lights.

A firefly, its tail glowing, flew into the air from the grass.

The sound of wings flapping.

It flew to the side of the unconscious woman lying on the ground and paused there temporarily.

The pale light illuminated the woman's bloodless face.

This makes it even more attractive to female fireflies.

Not far away, the sound of footsteps walking through the grass could be heard.

With a "creak",

The firefly that directly disturbed the woman's profile flapped its wings and fled from its spot.

Boldly passing by, the apricot-colored figure that interfered with its attraction to the opposite sex.

To express one's dissatisfaction.

A pair of silver brocade boots appeared not far from the woman.

The other person seemed to have seen the unconscious woman lying on the ground, and their steps faltered.

Then, the apricot-colored figure slowly approached her.

Even when someone approaches, the woman remains completely unaware.

Until the woman was effortlessly lifted up.

The pale blue skirt, stained with blood, was also scratched by tree branches, leaving a thin thread.

The person then disappeared into the forest.

...

The person who returned after searching the vicinity discovered that Qiao Wanwan had disappeared.

His fists were clenched, and his eyes were filled with dissatisfaction and anger.

"Qiao Wanwan, why didn't you wait for me here?"

"This woman is such a hassle!"

"Hmph, then let you suffer a bit out there."

Gu Chaomu stopped searching and walked down the slope to find a way out.

...

"Chirp, chirp~"

The woman lying inside the carriage was covered with a thick quilt.

A damp towel was also placed on his forehead.

Chunxia, ​​who was sitting to the side, reached out and took the wet towel off the young lady's forehead.

He gently stroked the woman's smooth forehead.

The woman, who had been deathly pale, gradually regained her normal complexion under the warmth.

Qiao Wanwan's eyelids twitched, and she only felt a sensation on her forehead.

She was being stroked by a warm, soft hand.

Very comfortable.

It doesn't feel like the countryside at all.

Huh?

Qiao Wanwan had a question in her mind:

How could it be warm?

Was she rescued?

Slowly opening her hazy almond-shaped eyes, she saw a familiar face before her.

"... "

Why is it spring and summer?

Are you not dreaming?

Chunxia was also very excited to see her wake up and went to hug her young lady.

With tears in her eyes, she said worriedly:

"Miss, you're finally awake! You really scared Chunxia to death."

How did I get back?

Qiao Wanwan voiced her doubts.

Could it be that the male lead actually found them and rescued him back to the team?

"Miss, you don't know this, do you? It's Young Master Xie..."

Before the maid could finish speaking, Qiao Wanwan exclaimed in surprise.

"What? Xie Ze?"

Spring and Summer waved her hand, amusedly reminding her:

"No, no, no, please let me finish."

"... "

“It was Steward Zhong, who was by Young Master Xie's side, who carried you back.”

"Oh I got it."

She was terrified.

She thought Xie Ze had saved her.

But thinking about it, it makes sense, how could that be?

If even the male lead wouldn't save her, Xie Ze would be even less likely to.

He's still in a wheelchair; she's overthinking it.

However, there are still more good people than bad in this world.

At least she was saved by Steward Zhong Shi, otherwise she would have become a wandering ghost.

Qiao Wanwan breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile:

"Then I really have to thank Butler Zhong. If it weren't for him, I might have died out there long ago."

"Pah, pah, pah, how could you say such discouraging things, Miss?"

Miss, you are very lucky and will be fine.

Furthermore, Miss, you don't need to thank Butler Zhong separately; Chunxia has already thanked him on your behalf.

Now, Miss, you just need to stay in the carriage and rest.

"All right."

Qiao Wanwan's expression changed as she realized something.

He quickly opened the blanket to check his clothes.

It wasn't the light blue dress she wore yesterday.

Chunxia, ​​who was beside her, knew what her mistress was worried about.

Don't explain to her:

"Miss, you had your period yesterday and didn't have time to tell Chunxia, ​​did you?"

"Yes."

"Don't worry, Chunxia has taken care of Miss's menstrual period."

It won't be revealed again. Luckily, they don't know about the young lady's affairs.

Otherwise, if word gets out, what will become of the woman's reputation?

"... "

Qiao Wanwan was puzzled by Chunxia's serious tone.

"What is this? Is it something secretive? Isn't it something every woman experiences?"

"Even so, these things are a young lady's privacy and should absolutely not be known to men outside the family."

"... "

Qiao Wanwan's lips twitched as she thought about what she had said to Gu Chaomu last night.

"What... what would happen if others found out?"

Spring and Summer, however, were filled with righteous indignation and resolutely stated:

"This matter should only be known to the young lady's future husband."

No other outsiders allowed!

"So private?"

"Yes! This concerns a young lady's reputation!"

Ok.

She still wouldn't tell Chunxia about what happened yesterday.

Otherwise, it would be bad if there was a misunderstanding.

She got angry just thinking about what happened yesterday.

Gu Chaomu, this man, actually dislikes a woman's menstrual period?

With a displeased expression, she asked Chunxia:

"Has Gu Chaomu returned?"

Chunxia thought for a moment, but shook her head.

"Young Master Gu hasn't returned yet. Young Master Xie's men are still searching in the forest."

"Ok."

Qiao Wanwan was petty and secretly cursed him.

It would be best if he never came back.

Although this is impossible.

But she really didn't like the male lead.

Seeing that the young lady was a little angry, Chunxia started to change the subject.

They were talking about the thrilling scene from yesterday.

"Miss, you have no idea how dangerous yesterday was."

I heard from Butler Zhong that your ankle is swollen. Miss, are there any other places that hurt?

Huh?

It was only after Chunxia reminded her that Qiao Wanwan remembered.

I have indeed sprained my ankle.

Butler Zhong is really amazing; he knew she had injured her ankle without even asking.

She tried twisting her ankle.

Amazingly,

Is her ankle all healed now?

"What happened? My injury has healed?"

Hearing the young lady's surprise, Chunxia reminded her:

"It must have been when Steward Zhong brought you back that he helped to check it out."

The Xie family is a family of doctors, and Butler Zhong must also have some medical skills, so he must have cured the young lady, right?

"Wow, that's really amazing."

Qiao Wanwan happily kicked her feet, finding them completely healed.

It doesn't hurt at all.

Qiao Wanwan is much better now.

After eating the ginger and brown sugar soup that Chunxia had prepared for her, she felt much warmer and her stomachache subsided.

She sat up, leaned against the window, and opened the curtains a little to look outside.

Looking out of the carriage, people were coming and going.

among them,

She saw that it was Steward Zhong who had saved her.

She was carrying a set of apricot-colored clothes with bloodstains on the sleeves as she passed by.

She remembered,

Aren't these Xie Ze's clothes?

There was some blood on it.

Could it be that he was injured?

Qiao Wanwan thought of something and asked Chunxia.

"In spring and summer, besides treating falls and injuries, can Zhifu Ointment also treat wounds?"

"Of course! This ointment developed by the Alliance Leader is as effective as ten other ointments."

"That's just right."

Qiao Wanwan wore a smug smile.

"?"

Chunxia also couldn't quite understand the deeper meaning behind the young lady's words.

...

Qiao Wanwan suddenly appeared outside the carriage, holding a box of Zhifu cream in her hand.

Looking at Xie Ze, who was sitting in a wheelchair not far away, basking in the sunlight.

He was holding a book in his hand and reading it.

Now, dressed in white, bathed in sunlight, he exudes a noble and holy aura.

Sunlight filtered through the white shirt, revealing glimpses of the man's well-built physique.

Qiao Wanwan couldn't help but swallow hard.

Looking at the man's slender waist, it's probably even as slender as hers, isn't it?

Gee!

Xie Ze certainly deserves to be the "submissive" one.

His black hair was tied up high with only a white jade hairpin.

As the breeze blew, strands of his hair gently brushed against his delicate eyebrows, high nose, and cherry-red lips.

With that ethereal face, she was even more alluring.

Unaware that someone was being fantasized about, the person clearly felt a burning gaze upon them.

My thoughts, which were focused on reading, were gradually diverted.

Listen carefully to the woman as she walks over with light, graceful steps.

The man slowly closed the book.

Then he heard a woman's clear and melodious voice calling his name.

"Xie Ze!"

"... "
