Yue Xiuyan blinked her eyes. This man was full of heroic spirit and did not look like a hunter at all. When she thought of Hunter, she thought of Hu Yang. Hu Yang's domineering aura was different from this man. Hu Yang's aura was restrained and hidden, but this man's mighty aura was innate. Unknowingly, it made people convinced, afraid, and even…a little excited.
"Thank you, hero, for saving me." Yue Xiuzhen cupped her fists and thanked him generously.
The man smiled and cupped his hands in return." You're welcome. Isn't Big Brother worried that Madam came to the mountains alone?”
Madam? Big brother?
Yue Xiuyan looked at the man's attire. He was obviously the son of a wealthy family. Moreover, she was very sure that the Host did not know this guy.
"May I know how to address this hero?”He would first get his name out before considering whether to believe him or not. Yue Xiuyan smiled politely.
"I am Rui Wu, and I am good friends with Big Brother Dan.”
"Hero Fang, why are you here?”Yue Xiuzhen carried the bamboo basket on her back and did not want to go down the mountain with the man.
Fang Ruiwu guessed Yue Xiuzhen's intentions and smiled faintly." I made an appointment with Big Brother Dan to go to the mountains to look for a treasure. I didn't expect…I won."”
Hearing Dan Shihan's name, Yue Xiuyan was a little worried. What would a weak scholar like him do if he encountered danger?
"Xiuyan, is that you?"
Dan Shihan's deep and hoarse voice came from the mist. It was obvious that he had shouted himself hoarse.
"Husband, I'm here." Yue Xiuzhen walked quickly and met Dan Shihan, who was walking towards her." Husband, why did you come to the mountains?" What if we encounter danger?"
Dan Shihan pulled her to stand in front of him and carefully checked if she was injured. He noticed that there were wrinkles and stains on her skirt and pants. He became nervous and grabbed her slender arm tightly.
"Aiya, be gentler. It hurts." Yue Xiuzhen pouted and moved her arms.
Dan Shihan came back to his senses and asked nervously,""Did you encounter a snake? Are you hurt anywhere?"
Yue Xiu shook her head." I'm fine." Fortunately, your friend appeared in time and killed the snake.”She waved her hand and pointed at the man behind her. Suddenly, she had a flash of inspiration. She pushed Dan Shihan away and ran to the snake's body with a knife. She cut open its stomach and took out its gallbladder." Wahahaha, this snake gallbladder is good stuff." The old doctor will definitely like it."
"Greedy little woman." Fang Ruiwu snickered and looked at Dan Shihan. He raised his chin and looked at him." I won."”Then, he looked at Yue Xiuyan, who was holding the snake gall and laughing heartily." Is your treasure mine?”
Dan Shihan's long and narrow phoenix eyes flashed with a cold light. He silently walked to Yue Xiuyan's side and shielded her behind him. He cupped his hands and said,""Young General, you can't take a joke seriously. As for what the young general said, I will definitely plan with all my heart to ensure that nothing goes wrong.”
"Alright, then I'll listen to big brother Dan's good news.”Fang Ruiwu turned around and ordered,"Send the couple down the mountain."”After that, he led a dozen people and left.
Seven armored soldiers suddenly appeared in the forest. Dan Shihan was worried that he would scare Yue Xiuhao, so he held her hand tightly and protected her.
Yue Xiuyan looked curiously at the seven soldiers who were ten meters behind her and asked in a low voice,""Husband, who is that Fang Ruiwu? What's your relationship with him?"
Dan Shihan didn't even look at her, his beautiful lips pursed into a line. His cold eyes hid his anger, and he held Yue Xiu Xin's hand tightly.
"Husband, it's okay if you don't want to say it. I won't ask.”Yue Xiuyan was a little scared. Why did it feel like Dan Shihan's eyes were flashing with killing intent?
"Xiuyan." Dan Shihan suddenly stopped, pulled Yue Xiuzhen's shoulders, and said seriously,""If you were about to live in the flames of war, would you be afraid?”
"Ah?" Yue Xiuyan was dumbfounded. What was the meaning of this? "Dan Shihan, is he here to recruit soldiers? He wants you to fight on the battlefield?"
Dan Shihan shook his head and then nodded, a bitter smile on his lips.
"What do you mean? I don't understand." Yue Xiu Xin blinked and pulled Dan Shihan to sit on a big rock beside her. She asked softly,""We are husband and wife. If you trust me…"
"I believe you." Dan Shihan held her hand, his phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and he muttered,""I am a strategist of the Fang Clan. I have signed a ten-year contract with his father, Old General Fang. In three more years, I can live in seclusion in the mountains and never ask about the affairs of the world again.”
Yue Xiu Xin knew little, but she knew that strategists were people who specialized in giving advice to high-ranking officials who were fighting for power and profit. She also believed that Dan Shihan's wisdom would definitely be able to take on this important task. However, she did not understand why Dan Shihan would sign a contract.
"Husband, were you forced to sign the contract, or…to repay a favor?”Yue Xiuyan asked tentatively. She knew that Dan Shihan's heart was very fragile at the moment, and he urgently needed an outlet to vent his frustration. She was the one who listened to his troubles, and of course, it was also the job she was most familiar with. She used to be a counselor and knew Dan Shihan's condition very well.
Dan Shihan looked at her, his lips moving but not saying a word. He didn't know if Yue Xiu Xin would look down on him or leave him after knowing the truth.
"Husband, it's okay if you don't want to say it. I'm your wife. No matter what decision you make, I'll support it.”Yue Xiuzhen patted the back of his hand to comfort him." Don't worry. When you're not at home, I'll take good care of my mother and two sisters. I won't let them be bullied."”
"Xiu Yan, aren't you going to ask me how long I'll be gone?”Dan Shihan was disappointed and somewhat reluctant.
" I'll wait for you at home as long as you're safe." Yue Xiu shook her head.”
"What if you never come back?"
"Wait for a lifetime."
Yue Xiuzhen's answer was not only moved, but also shocked and indescribable feelings.
"Xiuya, I…don't want to leave you.”
"Alright."
Dan Shihan held her face in his hands. He felt sorry for her forbearance and thanked her for her kindness.
As the mist dispersed, a man and a woman kissed each other warmly on a moss-covered rock.
