Time travel, quick transmigration

Because Shi Yan was injured, Xiao Huanling did not dare to take her around to avoid aggravating her wounds, so he carried her to the pavilion by the pond to sit down.

It was winter and there wasn't much to see, so Xiao Huanling held Shi Yan close in his arms. The two sat in the pavilion, snuggling together, seemingly not feeling cold at all.

Chen Bowen's clinic doesn't look very big from the outside, but once you step inside, you'll find that it's surprisingly spacious. For example, there's a beautifully constructed water pavilion in front of you, and next to it, there's a pond planted with lotus flowers and some red carp.

The lotus flowers had long since faded by this time of year, but the sight of a pond full of withered lotus leaves and dead lotus was still quite charming.

"Ayan, shall we just sit for a little while and then go back to our room?"

As he spoke, he pulled Shi Yan closer to him, wrapping her cloak even more tightly around her.

Looking at the withered lotus leaves and pods, Shi Yan leaned against the person beside her, feeling a sense of peace and warmth welling up in her heart.

Seeing that Shi Yan did not respond, Xiao Huanling lowered his eyes and gently called her name.

"Ayan?"

Shi Yan leaned against Xiao Huanling's chest and nuzzled him twice in a coquettish manner, letting out a soft "Mmm" from between her noses.

"What are you thinking about?"

Xiao Huanling looked at the top of Shi Yan's head with gentle eyes, clearly delighted by Shi Yan's dependence on him.

Shi Yan looked up at Xiao Huanling from his arms.

"I just feel so peaceful and wonderful, so relaxing, just being close to you like this, even if we don't say or do anything. I can't help but feel a little intoxicated..."

Xiao Huanling laughed upon hearing this.

"Is it."

"Then Ayan, just stay with me for the rest of your life, okay?"

Shi Yan knew she couldn't be with Xiao Huanling for life. She couldn't agree but also couldn't bear to disappoint him, so she remained silent and simply gave him a smile.

Xiao Huanling took it as Shi Yan's agreement and was quite satisfied.

"I'll take you back to your room later. I'll have Ah Man watch over you. Your injuries haven't healed yet, so you still need to rest and recuperate."

"Later, Jiang He and I will go out together. We'll be getting married in a couple of days, and we need to prepare some things. This time, I may not be able to give you a grand wedding, but I will still provide you with the traditional betrothal gifts and other necessities. I will give you everything a bride needs when she gets married. I just want to do everything I can to give you the best of everything."

Xiao Huanling not only gave her the most respect, but also the most tenderness and love, but she had no way to repay him. In the end, she would leave him alone. All she gave him were a few days of her life. Marrying him was her wish, but in the end, she only gave him a short-lived dream.

"Ah Ling, thank you. I feel all your feelings for me. I am so happy to have met and known you in this life."

Xiao Huanling's beautiful eyes were dazzling and sparkling.

There's no need for thanks between us. It's my good fortune to have met you and stayed with you in this life.

As Shi Yan looked at Xiao Huanling, whose eyes were bright and whose face was full of happiness and contentment, the wound from the arrow piercing her skin began to ache faintly. How could she tell this person who was so immersed in his beautiful vision that she could not accompany him for the rest of his life, and that she was about to leave him?

The thought that she would never see Xiao Huanling again after leaving this time and space, and the cruelty of leaving Xiao Huanling alone, made Shi Yan feel sad.

"Ayan, what's wrong?"

Xiao Huanling couldn't understand why her beloved would show such a sad and restrained expression. She felt puzzled and a little heartbroken.

Shi Yan saw Xiao Huanling's concern, her nose tingled but she held back her tears, and gently pursed her lips.

"My wound hurts a little, but I'm fine, don't worry."

"Don't laugh at me, but I've been unable to stand pain since I was a child. When I'm in pain, I look like I'm suffering a lot."

Xiao Huanling was amused by Shi Yan's coquettish expression, but quickly stopped laughing, feeling half heartache and half solemn promise.

"It's my fault for not being careful enough. You're a girl and you've never suffered before, so you definitely can't handle pain."

"How could I laugh at you? I only blame myself for not being able to protect you. From now on, I will never let you suffer even the slightest harm."

Xiao Huanling secretly made up her mind to do everything in her power to protect Shi Yan's happiness and well-being for the rest of her life.

Shi Yan was deeply moved.

"Yes, I know, and I will always believe in you."

Xiao Huanling hugged Shi Yan tighter, and in a moment of emotion, he couldn't help but kiss her forehead.

"Alright, we should go back inside. It's chilly outside, and you might catch a cold."

Shi Yan didn't refute Xiao Huanling but nodded obediently. After all, Xiao Huanling genuinely cared for her, even though she didn't like lying on the couch all the time, and even though she preferred to feel the fresh air outside.

"Yes, I'll listen to whatever A-Ling says."

Xiao Huanling raised his eyebrows at Shi Yan's words.

"Ayan was wrong. It should be that from now on I will listen to you. From now on, whatever you say goes between us."

Shi Yan was captivated by Xiao Huanling's earnest and focused gaze, and even more so by his bright and alluring beauty, and slowly nodded.

Seeing his beloved person showing a rare silly and easily fooled expression, Xiao Huanling affectionately stroked Shi Yan's hair, picked her up and held her protectively in his arms, and strode towards Antang.

Back at Antang, Xiao Huanling carried Shi Yan back to the room where she had rested. He carefully laid her down on the couch, covered her with a newly purchased, softer quilt, and sat down beside the couch.

"Are you tired? Sleepy? Do you want to take a break?"

Xiao Huanling considerately tidied up the few stray strands of hair that had fallen across Shi Yan's forehead, tucked her in, and gently asked her.

Shi Yan moved her stiff, cold limbs through the blanket and nodded slightly to Xiao Huanling.

"I'm going to sleep for a while, you don't need to stay with me. It's fine with Ah Man by my side."

"Go and do what you need to do."

Looking at the person in front of her, Xiao Huanling felt boundless affection in her heart.

"Okay, you can sleep peacefully. Jiang He and I are going out to buy some things, I'll be back soon."

Shi Yan knew that weddings weren't just a matter of holding a ceremony in the real world; there were many customs and traditions involved, especially in ancient times. Besides, judging from Xiao Huanling's expression, he didn't want to make things difficult for her, so the preparations for the wedding were indeed quite complicated.

"Ayan doesn't need to worry about anything, just wait to be my most beautiful bride."

Shi Yan had always known that Xiao Huanling was someone she could rely on and entrust her life to. In the real world, she had never been lucky, and her life had been extremely unlucky. But since coming to this time and space, she had encountered luck and met the best Xiao Huanling, the person who brought her all happiness.

"it is good."

Shi Yan looked into Xiao Huanling's eyes and slowly nodded.
