Chapter 2628: Chapter 2629: Return to Tianyun (195)

Su Xing continued, "I remember my first wilderness survival training, there was no fire, so we had to eat some things raw, like raw insects, raw mice, raw snakes to satiate our hunger. We all resisted a bit, but she was also in her first wilderness training and didn’t resist at all, she was the first to eat. Every time we resisted or couldn’t accept something, she would take the lead, be the first to do it, and we’d follow. Her courage and boldness were unmatched by me."

An Jing sighed, "So young and yet... what a pity. But when you joined the army, didn’t you already put life and death aside?"

Su Xing nodded, "Although I died in the modern times, I feel it was worth it because I saved innocent lives before I died. It’s worthy of being a soldier. I believe she must also feel it was worth it; she saved far more people than I did before she died."

...

After having lunch at the Royal Palace, Su Xing returned to the Tao Mansion, naturally taking with her the Millennium Ginseng given by An Yiqing.

"Husband, did you miss me?" Su Xing giggled as she hugged Taoming Ye upon her return.

Taoming Ye tenderly nodded, "I missed you."

"I missed you too~" Su Xing smiled brightly.

Taoming Ye lowered his head and gave her a rewarding kiss.

Su Xing pulled Taoming Ye aside to sit down, then opened the small box in her hand to reveal the Millennium Ginseng inside for Taoming Ye to see: "This is the Millennium Ginseng. Second Brother said you need this for nourishment, only then will your body fully recover. Third Brother sought it from Prince Rong, especially for you. He also wants to apologize, saying he shouldn’t have taken out his anger on you initially."

Taoming Ye quickly said, "Third Brother was anxious at that time, he wasn’t truly angry with me, and he did it for your good. How can we let Third Brother apologize to me."

Su Xing laughed, "That’s what I told him, and then he didn’t have that thought anymore. In fact, Third Brother has been wonderful to us, there’s no words to describe it. Back then, I was genuinely too upset and couldn’t control my temper. Luckily everything is over, and he doesn’t mind the things that hurt him so much anymore."

"Third Brother has always been generous, but we need to know our limits."

"Mm-hmm, don’t worry, I’ll control my temper from now on. This time serves as a lesson for me. I’ve been speaking carelessly, relying on my brothers’ affection. I won’t do it again."

"My wife is someone who knows when to bend and stand tall." Taoming Ye praised.

Su Xing chuckled, "This isn’t about bending or standing tall. It’s simply that when someone treats me with sincerity, I will also treat them sincerely. Our brothers are so good to us, so naturally, we should be good to them. Otherwise, we wouldn’t feel right."

"Mm." Taoming Ye nodded in agreement.

While putting away the Millennium Ginseng, Su Xing asked, "In the few hours that I wasn’t home, nothing happened here, right?"

Taoming Ye replied, "Nothing much happened, except for the person I’ve planted in Mrs. Cao’s courtyard secretly telling me that Mrs. Cao has recently been whispering with her two most trusted maidservants—Manjuan and Manhe. But about what, she didn’t hear."

Su Xing laughed, "Maybe they’re planning to make a move on you. Or perhaps on the two of us."

Taoming Ye laughed too, "Then we need to be more careful in recent days. We wouldn’t want her to fall into a trap and still escape."

"Mm-hmm~"

...

On this day, Tao Chengyin was off duty at home, so Su Xing and Taoming Ye invited Tao Chengyin over to their courtyard for a meal.
