Chapter 695: Chapter 533: She also gets jealous, takes Xiao Jinyan back to report safety
Ouyang Leyuan came today with the intention of taking Lin Xian out for fun, and was inevitably surprised to hear him say his farewells.
"Didn’t you say you’d stay for a few more days? Wouldn’t leaving tomorrow be too hasty?"
Lin Xian spoke in a gentle voice, "I’ve already imposed for several days, and I am ready to return home tomorrow. It’s been too long since I’ve been back."
Ouyang Leyuan knew he was determined to leave, but she just couldn’t bear the thought of him leaving; she looked up at the handsome and clear-featured man before her.
"Can’t you wait a bit longer? Tomorrow is my birthday, how about you leave after it’s over, okay?"
"...This," Lin Xian was somewhat troubled. He had already agreed with Shen Chuwei that he would leave tomorrow, and Shen Chuwei was going to leave the city today and then meet outside the city to depart together.
Seeing Lin Xian’s hesitation, Ouyang Leyuan continued, "Young Master Lin, since you’ve been out for so long, one more day won’t matter. The day after tomorrow, I’ll personally see you out of the city, okay?"
Faced with the request from his savior, which was not excessive, Lin Xian thought about it for a while and then nodded his agreement, "Alright."
Ouyang Leyuan, seeing him nod in agreement, was overjoyed, "Every year, my birthday is the same old routine, not very interesting. But this year, having you with me feels different."
Lin Xian said, "It’s just one more person accompanying you for your birthday."
"That’s different. Tomorrow is my sixteenth birthday, which is of special significance." Ouyang Leyuan had already started looking forward to her birthday tomorrow, as she could choose a consort.
Lin Xian watched Ouyang Leyuan’s happy face, thinking that, for a princess like her who had been pampered from a young age, her birthday must be exceptionally lively.
Meanwhile, Shen Chuwei had already explained Ouyang Jingyuan’s condition to Ouyang Jingyu and left some medicine behind.
After Shen Chuwei’s diagnosis and treatment, Ouyang Jingyuan indeed showed considerable improvement, and he himself had spoken on her behalf.
Ouyang Jingyu did not have any suspicions, and he had someone bring the reward money.
"Here is the reward you deserve."
Shen Chuwei looked at the ten thousand gold before her. Although it was different from the gold of Daxia, it was nonetheless a substantial sum. She didn’t put on any airs and put it all into her pouch.
After leaving Ouyang Jingyu’s place, Shen Chuwei happily walked towards the Guest Room.
Ouyang Jingyuan, seeing her cheerful face, could tell that her happiness was not because of the ten thousand gold.
"You’re leaving today; won’t you stay a bit longer?"
"No need," Shen Chuwei raised her head to look at Ouyang Jingyuan and then said after a moment’s thought, "Who knows, we might meet again in the future."
"Really?" Ouyang Jingyuan asked.
"Of course, your illness can’t be completely cured, and the medicine is only enough to last half a year unless you can find someone who can treat you," Shen Chuwei spoke the truth. Though his condition was now stable, she couldn’t guarantee that it would remain so indefinitely.
Ouyang Jingyuan immediately understood the implications of her words and said with a smile, "I’d like to visit Daxia when I have time and to come find you."
Naturally, Shen Chuwei was welcoming, "I can treat you to some tea and pastries."
Ouyang Jingyuan’s eyebrows and eyes lifted with a smile, "Then it’s settled."
"I’ll be going then," Shen Chuwei said farewell to him and then set off toward the Guest Room with a cheerful stride.
After walking only a few steps, she was called back by Ouyang Jingyuan, "Are you and Lin Xian planning to return to Daxia together?"
A few days ago, Ouyang Jingyuan had learned that Shen Chuwei was leaving with Lin Xian, and Shen Chuwei had also confirmed the fact that Lin Xian was Xiao Jinyan.
Shen Chuwei stopped, turned back to look at Ouyang Jingyuan, and hesitated a little, "Not to Daxia, but to Nanzhao Country."
Ouyang Jingyuan looked at her in surprise, "Why are you going to Nanzhao Country?" He then seemed to think of something and asked further, "Are you going to Nanzhao Country because you suspect your identity?"
Shen Chuwei shook her head, "Anyway, there is something important that requires going to Nanzhao Country."
A hint of disappointment flashed in Ouyang Jingyuan’s eyes, "I thought you were suspecting your own identity and going to Nanzhao Country to look for answers and the truth."
Shen Chuwei immediately understood what he meant, "Do you want to know about Feng Wuyou? If I get any news of her on this trip, I’ll send you a message afterward, how about that?"
Ouyang Jingyuan smiled and nodded, "Good."
Continuing on with a buoyant step, Shen Chuwei returned to the Guest Room, heading toward Xiao Jinyan’s quarters.
Upon entering, she saw Xiao Jinyan sitting leisurely at a table drinking tea, exuding a noble aura despite having lost his memory.
Every gesture and movement revealed his lofty status.
She also noticed that since Xiao Jinyan had forgotten his past, he had been living a relaxed life, no longer needing to assist the Emperor in reviewing memorials, nor dealing with endless affairs of state.
