Finally, as if after a long and agonizing experience, the torture-like process of applying the medicine finally came to an end. When Luo Shuiyao said, "It's done," beads of sweat were already falling from Ye Yunzhou's forehead like raindrops, and his back was also covered with dense beads of sweat.
Luo Shuiyao thought he was in great pain. Although she was puzzled by his reaction to her gentle movements, she couldn't help but feel a little guilty. She then pulled a handkerchief from her sleeve and gently wiped the sweat from his back before signaling him to put on his clothes.
Ye Yunzhou stood up almost instantly, grabbed the clothes placed aside, and put them on with swift hands and feet.
Seeing Luo Shuiyao turned her back to him, Ye Yunzhou hurriedly lifted his sleeves and wiped the beads of sweat on his face without any image. Then he cleared his throat and tried hard to make his voice return to normal, but in the end he said with a hint of hoarseness: "Let's go, I'll take you home."
When Luo Shuiyao heard his slightly hoarse voice, she glanced at him in surprise, but eventually swallowed her doubts, just nodded, and followed him out the door without saying a word.
After leaving the yard, the two walked side by side and soon arrived at the gate of the villa.
Ye Yunzhou then stopped and gestured for her to go in on her own. After all, it was already getting dark, and if he went in with her, there was no guarantee that it would cause a lot of gossip. He didn't want the person he cared about to be troubled by rumors.
Luo Shuiyao understood Ye Yunzhou's concerns and bowed to him gratefully. Just as she was about to say goodbye and return to the villa, she suddenly remembered something and turned to look at Ye Yunzhou, "That pony..."
Ye Yunzhou's lips curled up slightly, a faint smile forming. "Someone has carefully checked. The pony accidentally got a sharp stone stuck in its hoof, causing it to bleed. It got startled and started to riot. The stone has been cleared away. Let it rest for two days and it will be fully recovered."
After hearing his explanation, Luo Shuiyao finally breathed a sigh of relief, but then hurriedly asked, "Did you hurt it?"
Ye Yunzhou shook his head. "Of course not. I held back and just kicked it down."
Seeing that Luo Shuiyao still had some doubts, he comforted her again: "Don't worry. Livestock have a very strong ability to heal. In two days at most, when you come, it will be as lively as before. Don't worry."
After hearing this, Luo Shuiyao's worries completely dissipated. Without hesitation, she turned around to say goodbye to Ye Yunzhou and walked into the villa.
Ye Yunzhou looked at her departing back. After her figure completely disappeared, he reached out and touched his back, then poked it hard. Strangely, the unbearable numbness he had felt when he applied the medicine was no longer there.
When Luo Shuiyao returned to the courtyard, it was already dark. Chun Xing was pacing anxiously in the courtyard, glancing towards the door from time to time. When she saw Luo Shuiyao, she immediately greeted her with a smile and said, "Miss, you are finally back. I was so worried about you."
Luo Shuiyao gently patted Chun Xing's hand to comfort her and said, "It's okay. It's getting late now, you should go back and rest. Don't worry about me."
Chun Xing did not listen to her, but supported Luo Shuiyao's hand and walked into the house.
After lighting the oil lamp for Luo Shuiyao, he hesitated for a long time before finally speaking in a persuasive tone: "Miss, you no longer have your family to rely on, and there are few people in this capital who can support you. You must understand that a girl's chastity is of paramount importance. You must not let anyone deceive you."
Seeing Chun Xing hesitate for a long time and speak so coyly, Luo Shuiyao couldn't help but find it funny, but her heart was also warmed. She knew that although Chun Xing's words were a bit over the top, they were sincerely for her own good, so how could she blame her? So she said softly, "Don't worry, I know these principles. I just accidentally soiled my clothes while riding, so I asked him to send someone to get a change of clothes. Don't let your imagination run wild."
After hearing this, Chun Xing breathed a sigh of relief and said, "So that's how it is! Then why didn't he explain it clearly, making me so worried? I thought..." Her words stopped abruptly, but her eyes were slightly red, and she was still scared.
Luo Shuiyao gently put her arm around Chun Xing's shoulders and comforted her softly: "Okay, don't be afraid. You have to trust that your young lady will not suffer any loss. Go back and rest. You have worked hard these days."
Chun Xing quickly shook her head and said, "It's not hard for me. It's my blessing to be able to serve you, young lady."
Luo Shuiyao carefully tidied up Chun Xing's slightly messy hair and said a few words of comfort. After a long while, Chun Xing turned around and went back to her room to rest.
Luo Shuiyao took off her clothes, blew out the oil lamp, and lay down on the bed, thinking back to the events of the day. She had thought she might have a sleepless night, but unexpectedly, she slept exceptionally soundly.

Back at the horse training camp, Ye Yunzhou lay quietly in bed, completely unmoved by sleep. His eyes were tightly shut, but the image of the same woman kept recurring in his mind and eyes. Sometimes she was charming and adorable, sometimes furious, sometimes mischievous, and sometimes a bit contrived. But no matter what she looked like, it was like a pebble dropped into the middle of a lake, stirring ripples in Ye Yunzhou's heart and sending his heart pounding.
It was unknown how long it took before Ye Yunzhou finally fell into a deep sleep.
Inside the Marquis's mansion, red lanterns were hung high, emblazoned with large wedding characters, and the atmosphere was bustling with guests. Ye Yunzhou looked down and saw that she was wearing a bright red wedding gown and a jade crown, looking exactly like someone getting married. He couldn't help but wonder, what on earth was going on?
"Yuan Zheng, it's getting late. You should hurry up and go to the bridal chamber. Have you drunk too much, boy?"
He heard the sound of people booing and drinking. Then, he was pushed and shoved into a courtyard. The courtyard was filled with red silk and a festive atmosphere.
Afterward, he was led into a room, where the doors and windows were shut. Beside the bed sat a woman, also wearing a bright red wedding gown embroidered with golden phoenixes. Her figure was incredibly graceful. Although Ye Yunzhou was filled with doubts, he seemed to be uncontrollably moving forward.
He picked up the wedding pole next to him and gently lifted the woman's veil.
The woman then raised her eyes to look at him, and Ye Yunzhou froze in his tracks. Her eyebrows were as picturesque as a painting, her cherry lips parted, and her eyes were filled with tenderness, instantly drawing Ye Yunzhou's whole body and soul in. "Yaoyao."
