Chapter 1670: Instinct
“Last night, after Little Jiu and Guan Xilin returned, you still didn’t come back, so she asked Du Fan to go out to look for you. They didn’t find you in the alley until dawn. At that time, seeing you carried back, we were worried. Fortunately, you’re not seriously hurt.”
Shangguan Wanrong answered while tucking the quilt. “You don’t know how worried I was last night. Not only did you get hurt, but also Little Jiu and Xi Lin.”
Hearing that, Feng Xiao’s heart shook. Instinctively, he asked with urgency. “They were hurt? Are their injuries serious?”
“Alas! Little Jiu and Xilin said that they were fine and said those were only superficial wounds. But, I saw those injuries were not light. Xilin’s shoulder bone was stabbed by the sword, there are many large and small injuries. Some were so deep that bones were visible. Little Jiu’s hand and calf were slashed. Last night when she came back, she walked with a limp. Yet, she was still so worried that you’re in danger outside.”
Shangguan Wanrong sighed. “This child really cares about us. Even though she knows the danger, she left Fire Phoenix who can protect her around us. When she heard that you haven’t returned, she sent everyone out to look for you.”
Feng Xiao listened in silence. He felt very uncomfortable. At this time, there was a knock on the door.
“Mother, is Father already awake?”
Feng Jiu’s voice came from outside. Shangguan Wanrong in the room showed a soft smile and told Feng Xiao, “Look, our daughter has come to see you. She must be worried about you.” Then she got up and went to open the door.
Lying in bed, there was mixed feeling in Feng Xiao’s eyes. His heart seemed to struggle. At this moment, he seemed not to know how to face his daughter.
“Father, are you awake?”
Feng Jiu limped in. Her calf injury was already treated but not yet cured. Although there was a blue lotus inside her body that helped her injury recover quickly, after all, it was too eye-catching. So, she could only bandage the wound and put some medicine, letting her injuries heal slowly.
Feng Xiao turned his head slightly and watched his daughter walk towards him with his wife’s support, followed by Leng Shuang carrying medicine on both hands.
Looking at her complexion looked unwell, her beautiful face conspicuously pale, he couldn’t help asking, “Are you seriously hurt? Why are you so pale?” After asking this question, he paused.
After so many years together, some habits and concerns have become instinctive.
“I’m fine. I’ll be well after taking a few days rest.”
She walked forward with a smile, came to the bed and sat down. Together with her mother, she helped her father up from the bed, sat on the head of the bed and took the bowl of medicine from Leng Shuang.
“This is the Soothing Mind soup that I asked Leng Shuang to boil. Father received a great shock and fainted due to the retrograde flow of vital energy and blood. You’ll get well after drinking this medicine.” She scooped up a spoon and blew it, then spoonfed him with a smile. “Here, it’s not bitter.”
Feng Xiao looked at her quietly, as if he was really looking at her, but it seemed that he was looking at another person through her. What he replayed in his mind was scenes of the past...
He brought his daughter up single-handedly. When she was just born, she was a soft and frail crying baby. When she was four or five years old, she would follow him and call him in a soft and mellifluous voice, Father...
