Chapter 364: Chapter 364 Zhu Yinian’s Thoughts
Fen Nu merely watched Dongli Honglang go mad coldly, then with a smile that was not quite a smile, she said, "Then I wish you, Crown Prince, to ultimately attain your heart’s desire."
After speaking, she turned and left directly.
Dongli Honglang was so angry that he kept smashing things.
"Write a letter to Xie Feifei, tell her to get rid of Zhu Yinian as soon as possible. This Crown Prince wants to seize the throne of Nanduan Kingdom immediately!"
He turned back, giving his order to his Hidden Guard with a gloomy expression.
"Yes, Crown Prince."
...
Xie Feifei walked into the tent holding medicine.
Zhu Yinian had already taken off his clothes, preparing to change his dressing himself.
She quickly walked over, then said softly, "Brother Yinian, let me help you change the dressing."
Hearing her voice, Zhu Yinian’s eyebrows furrowed deeply.
He quickly put on his clothes, then said in a deep voice, "No need. The wound isn’t that severe, I can change the dressing myself."
"Alright then, Brother Yinian, the medicine is ready, drink it while it’s hot."
Xie Feifei placed the medicine on the table.
Zhu Yinian looked at the bowl of medicine, his eyes flickering with a profound depth.
"Thank you for your trouble. From now on, someone else will prepare the medicine; there’s no need for you to do everything yourself."
Xie Feifei’s face fell instantly, her tone aggrieved, "Brother Yinian, could it be that you are tired of me, so you don’t want me to brew your medicine?"
The moment Zhu Yinian lifted his head, he saw her on the verge of tears.
He let out a long sigh, his tone softened.
"Feifei, that’s not what I mean. It’s just that since you have been taking care of me, and there are so many other injured waiting for your treatment in the camp, you are too hard-pressed. I merely want to lessen your burden."
"So it’s because you are concerned about me, not because you despise me?" Xie Feifei hurriedly wiped away her tears, her face beaming with joy.
"You have helped this General so many times, how could I possibly despise you?" Zhu Yinian said with a stern face, his tone extremely disapproving.
Hearing this, Xie Feifei lowered her head.
She fidgeted with her fingers nervously, then said dejectedly, "I am an orphan, fortunate enough to have grown up relying on others’ charity, and have learned medical skills to support myself. But because of my origins, I am ultimately destined to be spurned. Brother Yinian, you are the Great General as well as the son of a Magistrate, we are worlds apart..."
"Why would you think that way? Do not belittle yourself needlessly. Who has been speaking ill in front of you?"
Zhu Yinian’s face grew more serious.
"No, nobody," Xie Feifei’s eyes began to redden again, tears welling up, ready to fall at any moment.
She bit her lower lip, not minding even as she drew blood.
After taking a few deep breaths, she said despondently, "Women in this world should be like the Princess or like my sister Yueyue. Born noble, loved and adored by others, protected in everything they do. Not like me, who has to tread on thin ice in everything I do, always afraid of being abandoned."
"Feifei, it has been said that you should not undervalue yourself. Your medical skills are extraordinary, and that has already surpassed many. Although you suffered a great deal in your childhood, everything is gradually getting better now, and you deserve a better life. Besides, you are not without people who care about you. The Zhu Residence treats you as one of their own, and the soldiers in the camp also respect you greatly."
Zhu Yinian said so many words in one breath, and because of his rush, his wound began to ooze fresh blood.
Xie Feifei’s eyes widened in shock, probably not expecting Zhu Yinian to say so much to comfort her.
She slightly lowered her gaze, then said softly, "Then among all these people, are you there, Brother Yinian?"
"Of course, I see you as a sister, just like Yueyue, you both are my sisters. Zhu Residence will be your home," Zhu Yinian said calmly.
But cracks appeared on Xie Feifei’s tranquil face.
"However, Brother Yinian, I don’t want to be your sister. So many people in the camp say we look perfect together, like a golden boy and a jade girl. You’re not betrothed, so why can’t you take a look at me?"
Hiding the ugly emotions on her face, Xie Feifei abruptly raised her head, vehemently reproaching Zhu Yinian with each and every sentence full of grief and indignation.
"You, you..."
Zhu Yinian stared at Xie Feifei in shock, probably not expecting that she still harbored such feelings for him.
"Feifei, I only consider you as a sister. Don’t talk such nonsense in the future. You will meet someone who truly loves you, and when that time comes, our Zhu Family will help you marry gloriously," he said, his tone containing a touch more distance and certainty.
Xie Feifei clenched her fingers, her eyes slightly cold.
"Brother Yinian, you’re so indulgent with me, I thought I was different in your heart. Even when I had a conflict with Zhu Xinyue, you were on my side. I naively thought you loved me, but it turns out..." she said with self-derision.
Not giving Zhu Yinian a chance to speak, she directly questioned him harshly, "Brother Yinian, you don’t love me, could it be that you love Zhu Xinyue?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? She’s my sister, and it’s a brother’s duty to care for her," Zhu Yinian retorted sharply.
Xie Feifei slowly stood up, letting out a sneer.
"A brother? Which brother watches his sleeping sister with such infatuation? And which brother, knowing his sister has reached the age of marriage, contradictorily doesn’t want her to marry..." she said.
"Hold your tongue, I am her brother!"
Zhu Yinian probably never expected Xie Feifei to expose his true feelings; he grew so agitated that he began to cough.
But Xie Feifei still sneered, "A brother? What kind of brother are you? You’re nothing but a façade for the Zhu Family."
"If you harbor resentment because I rejected you, direct your anger at me. Don’t involve Yueyue," Zhu Yinian said, struggling to control his emotions.
He hadn’t realized that the look he was giving Xie Feifei was one of warning.
"Yes, in your eyes, Brother Yinian, Zhu Xinyue is always the most important. In the past, whenever we argued, you would protect me. In fact, you wanted Zhu Xinyue to be annoyed with you, then distance herself from you, so you could suppress your dirty thoughts. Brother Yinian, you may have become the Martial Arts Top Scholar when you were young and are now the leader of the Tongzhou army, but in the end, you’re just a pitiful person, a pitiful person who dares not admit his own feelings..." Xie Feifei’s words grew more and more vicious.
But Zhu Yinian had completely calmed down.
Looking up at Xie Feifei, his eyes were now devoid of much warmth, "I will consider what you said today as nonsense blurted out in confusion. If you dare speak these words in front of Yueyue, I will not let you off easily."
Xie Feifei also quieted down.
After the silence of the training field, she tugged at the corners of her mouth and demurely said, "I’m sorry, Brother Yinian, I was too anxious, I love you too much, which is why I said all those absurd things. I’ll go back first, please don’t be angry."
