Reincarnation: My Possessive Beast Husband
Chapter 409 - 410 He Seems to Have Been Bleeding All Along

He knew he could not return, as that woman must have set an ambush with many people in the surrounding area.

His only option was to contact Second, who currently controlled all of Heijia City, to safely return to the residence.

Finally, unable to run any further, he jumped into this courtyard for a temporary refuge.

There were many similar courtyards, but he chose the most conspicuous one, believing that his pursuers would not suspect him to hide here.

By the time they had searched the other courtyards, Second would probably have arrived.

After all, the appearance of so many assassins in Heijia City would surely be detected by the sentries.

As long as he could hide for two hours, he would be saved.

The man thought groggily, not noticing that his wound continued to bleed...

Qiu Ruyue leaned against a column, staying silent throughout, with her breaths extremely shallow.

The evening breeze blew in waves, bringing bursts of chill that made her feel cold despite wearing thick clothes.

She tucked her hands inside her coat, but it was still not warm enough.

Not far from her, the man’s breathing seemed to grow heavier, occasionally interspersed with faint groans.

There was a sweet, metallic scent in the air; it appeared his wound was still bleeding.

Biting her lip, Qiu Ruyue, unable to bear it any longer, spoke, "Young Master, would you like to come inside with me? I have some golden sore medicine..."

Because she often bumped into things due to her inability to see, she kept a lot of hemostatic medicine and healing medicine at home.

The man opened his eyes and saw the girl looking anxious and uneasy under the moonlight, yet her expression was resolute, which did not seem casual.

He smiled and agreed, "Thank you, miss."

They went unobstructed to Qiu Ruyue’s room, where he curiously asked, "Is there no one else in the residence?"

Why were there no servants?

Qiu Ruyue fetched a flint, lit the candle, and said with a slight smile, "The others are in the front courtyard. I wanted to learn to live independently, so I sent them away."

She did not need to light candles because she was blind, but now that there was someone with her, they were necessary.
