Time travel, quick transmigration

"You, what did you say... He's your husband, how could that be..."

"You are clearly a nun who has left home to become a nun, how could he be your husband?"

Since Xiao Huanling brought Shi Yan to their clinic for treatment the night before last, and then knocked on the door in the middle of the night, threatening and intimidating her father, she heard about this from the clinic owner. The next day, she came to find Xiao Huanling in a fit of anger. After learning that Xiao Huanling was unconscious, she originally planned to teach him a lesson in secret. However, when she saw the unconscious, beautiful, and charming Xiao Huanling, her heart was bewitched.

When Xiao Huang turned sixteen, she fell in love with a man for the first time. Seeing Xiao Huanling lying on the bed, so weak and vulnerable, she disregarded the rules between men and women and ignored her parents' objections to take care of him. But now, she suddenly heard from Shi Yan that the man she loved was already someone else's husband. How could she accept this? She was completely unable to remain calm.

Shi Yan stepped forward and carefully examined Xiao Huanling before turning her gaze to Xiao Huang.

"As for why he is the husband of me, a nun who has become a nun, it seems to have nothing to do with you, young lady, and it is not something you should know."

"To avoid suspicion, I think it would be best for the young lady to leave."

Xiao Huang was speechless and felt incredibly embarrassed; her initial arrogance vanished. She glanced at the oblivious Xiao Huanling; such a handsome man before her, yet not hers, shattered her heart into pieces. Even so, she remained unwilling to accept it.

"How could he marry a woman older than him, especially a female Taoist priestess?"

“You really have no shame. Once you’ve become a nun, you should sever all ties with him to avoid tarnishing his reputation.”

Shi Yan looked at the woman who was speaking righteously to her with utter speechlessness.

"Hey, what does it matter to you whether I'm a burden to him or not? Aren't you a little out of touch?"

At this point, Shi Yan felt a lump in her throat, completely bewildered. She couldn't understand what had gotten into her that made her argue with the woman in front of her because of Xiao Huanling, and even bring up the fact that Xiao Huanling was her husband. Perhaps she couldn't stand someone taking advantage of Xiao Huanling while he was unconscious, and then acting all high and mighty, lecturing her. She was probably trying to make the other woman back down, which was why she acted so strangely.

Seeing that the other party showed no sign of leaving, he remained motionless as if his buttocks were glued to the stool, even revealing a defiant look in his eyes.

Shi Yan suddenly felt that she might have met a weirdo.

"If I were as thick-skinned as that, I might encounter fewer obstacles and have a slightly smoother life in the real world."

Shi Yan wouldn't tolerate rude people.

"please!"

Shi Yan gestured to Xiao Huang towards the door, inviting her to enter.

"My wife wants you to leave; it would be best for you to go."

Xiao Huanling didn't know when she woke up, and how much she heard throughout the whole thing.

Thinking of this, Shi Yan was delighted but also somewhat embarrassed.

Hearing the man she had fallen for tell her to leave, Xiao Huang, no matter how unwilling she was, could no longer bring herself to stay.

"Does Young Master dislike Huang'er that much?"

As Xiao Huang uttered these words, tears welled in her crystal-clear eyes. She looked at Xiao Huanling with a wronged expression, but when she met his clear, calm eyes, she couldn't help but feel a deep chill creeping into her bones.

Xiao Huang trembled slightly and suddenly stood up. She couldn't help but wonder what terrible thing might have happened if she had been any later. Moreover, it seemed that she was the only one in the room who had been acting like a clown from beginning to end.

"Hmph... Fine, I'll go then!"

With a flick of her sleeve, Xiao Huang left, suppressing her anger.

With the eyesore finally gone, Shi Yan leisurely took a few steps forward, getting closer to the bed. She pretended to be calm, bent down, and quietly looked at Xiao Huanling for a while before slowly straightening up, nodding, and muttering to herself.

"Hmm, no wonder the girl was attracted to you, your face is indeed captivating."

"Is that so! Has it tempted your heart?"

Xiao Huanling smiled slightly, her eyes fixed on Shi Yan.

Some people are already beautiful when they don't smile, but their smiles are even more captivating. Shi Yan couldn't resist Xiao Huanling's gaze and, defeated, awkwardly looked away.

"You're awake but still pretending to be asleep. When did you become so bad?"

Seeing Shi Yan's awkward expression, Xiao Huanling smiled even more indulgently.

"I was just trying to cooperate with my wife, but she still misunderstood me."

Shi Yan was completely speechless for a moment.

"Stop, let's stop here. I said that in the heat of the moment, don't take it to heart. I didn't mean to damage your reputation, I promise."

Seeing Shi Yan's eagerness to distance herself, Xiao Huanling suddenly stopped laughing and coughed twice.

"What's wrong? I'll go get a doctor to take a look at you."

He then set off to find a doctor.

"Don't go, I'm fine, it's just that the wound on my back is hurting a bit."

Xiao Huanling looked at Shi Yan with a low voice and a vulnerable expression.

Shi Yan immediately felt sorry for him.

"Does it hurt?"

"Let me see if your wound is okay. I'll check to see if it's cracked."

Xiao Huanling would never let Shi Yan see the terrible injury on his back. He didn't want Shi Yan to worry, nor did he want Shi Yan to ask him how he got hurt. He didn't want to tell her directly how unloved he was by his family.

"I just fell off my horse accidentally, it's nothing to see. It doesn't really hurt that much, I just wanted you to worry about me."

He even gave a mischievous smile as he spoke.

Shi Yan saw Xiao Huanling's feigned ease and knew he must have something he couldn't say, so she stopped insisting on seeing his injuries.

"Thank you for saving me this time."

"If it weren't for me, you wouldn't be lying here. I will take good care of you until you are fully recovered."

Xiao Huanling nodded and smiled.

"Then trouble you."

"There's no need to thank me. Compared to what you've given me, anything I've done is nothing."

He patted the empty space in front of him and then moved to the side and back a little.

"Sit here and talk to me."

Shi Yan happened to have something to say to Xiao Huanling, so she sat down on the edge of the couch.

"Ah Ling, how did you find me, and how did you know I was in danger?"

"Can you tell me?"

To be honest, she was really curious. After all, the two of them weren't in sync and could sense each other. Since it had nothing to do with 0804, how did Xiao Huanling manage to find her and save her? This was definitely beyond the normal range.

Xiao Huanling looked at Shi Yan with a puzzled expression.

"How I found you, how I knew you were in danger, is not important. What matters is that you are safe and sound."

Shi Yan was taken aback upon hearing this.

“I understand what you mean. Actually, I’m just a little curious. Once I encounter something I don’t understand, I tend to keep it in mind, so I wanted to find out.”

Xiao Huanling wasn't unwilling to tell her, so he spoke frankly. "It was Cangyu who came to find me. It must have sensed that you were in danger. It was also it that led me to you and helped me rescue you from the river in time. It has done a great service this time, and I will reward it handsomely afterwards."

Shi Yan was surprised and deeply moved when she learned from Xiao Huanling that Cang Yu had played a part in saving her.

"It's true what they say, that everything in the world has a spirit. Cangyu is really amazing; it's so reliable in crucial moments. It's no wonder I treat it so well all the time. Next time, I'll prepare more of its favorite food to reward it..."

Hearing Shi Yan's high praise for Cang Yu, 0804, who was already feeling depressed, became unconvinced.

"But what's so great about a bird that's a little smarter than others? Humph..."

Hearing Shi Yan praise Cang Yu, Xiao Huanling was not surprised to feel quite jealous. Although he knew he shouldn't argue with a mere eagle, he still felt a little sour.
