Quick Transmigration: Face Slapping The Second Female Lead Chapter 10: Hunting down the Exiled Princess (10)

At first, Xia Liang was really pretending to faint, but in the end, due to excessive blood loss, she felt exhausted and passed out for real.

Since Bai Yao's troop successfully found them, the things that followed became much simpler and more reasonable.

They first exterminated the ambushed enemy troops and then set off to escort their general back to his mansion. As for the people behind the attack, well…

In fact, Bai Yao did not care much about whether himself injured or not, but Xia Liang was the one who was enduring sufferings. Bai Yao could not dispel the rage in his heart if he could not wipe out the enemies completely.

During the return journey, Bai Yao dared not to pick up speed, worrying about splitting Xia Liang’s wound and hurting her.

So the one-day journey was finished in three whole days.

As long as Xia Liang in waking state, she would have to endure Xia Ran's nagging and his gaze of bitterness and affection.

Though ashamed of her own behavior, to avoid this troublesome, Xia Liang chose to pretend to be faint with her eyes closed all the way back, apart from mealtime of course.

This made Bai Yao feel very distressed, thinking that her body was too weak due to her injuries and wishing he could turn back the clock to let the victim be himself.

His hatred of those behind the scenes deepened.

After the affectation of the whole trip, Xia Liang finally arrived at the general’s mansion.

Before entering the mansion, Xia Ran offered to take her sister back for recuperation. Before Xia Liang came up with any idea to change his eldest brother's idea, Bai Yao waved aside the suggestion.

On this condition, how could Bai Yao tolerate Xia Liang being out of his sight?

The entire possession of Bai Yao would be taken by fear as long as he was absent beside Xia Liang or have no chance to feel her breath. He was afraid that once she fell asleep, she would never wake up again.

While Xia Liang was unaware of her “unscrupulous” behavior had tortured Bai Yao nerve-racking. He was craving for holding her in his arms at every moment.

Hearing that Bai Yao was going to keep her in the mansion for recuperation, Xia Liang was extremely satisfied. The news from 9957 that the task had been completed by 25% added her greater joy.

These signs indicated that she had won Bai Yao’s trust and even occupied a certain position in his heart.

Next, she could be devoted to obstruct the connections between Bai Yao and Su Mei, preventing Bai Yao from falling in love with that woman, and exposing her identity at an appropriate time.

Intent on planning the next step in her mind, Xia Liang still kept her eyes closed and did not even lift her lids when she felt Bai Yao holding her in his arms. Instead, she moved her body slightly to make herself more comfortable in his arms.

There was no other reason, just because she seemed to be too used to it.

These days, no matter the wound dressing or other labors that needed to take care of Xia Liang were all contributed by Bai Yao. Xia Liang had become accustomed to his behavior and his breath.

She accepted Bai Yao's kindness to her for granted, because Bai Yao was the object to her saving task and the target of the mission. Their close relationship was beneficial to the mission.

As for the other concerns, Xia Liang never thought of that at all.

In terms of intelligence, she was not inferior to others.

However, with regard to the affections between men and women, she was more like an idiot than anyone else.

Perhaps a stone would be more enlightened than Xia Liang on this.

Therefore, when Bai Yao held her in his arms, Xia Liang felt nothing at all, only stunning all the women of Bai Family and servants and maids waiting at the gate of the general mansion.

All of them wore a shocked face, staring at their indifferent general, the god of war of Xi Hua, holding an emaciated woman in his arms. His movements were as cautious as holding a porcelain doll, fearing of hurting the one in his arms.

His careful appearance made people unable to refrain their envy and jealousy.

What was even more abominable was that he hid the face of the person in his arms with his robe, preventing others from seeing what she was like!

Although the general's expression was cold, hard and indifferent as always, a person with discerning eyes could notice the changes in him. His whole figure seemed to have softened a lot, and his cold eyes revealed a trace of warmth..

This behavior was obvious towards a beloved one, even idiots could tell.

Everyone was silent and sluggish at the gate of the general’s mansion.

At this point, someone came up to break the embarrassing atmosphere.

 “Yao, are you all right? I heard you got ambushed, I was so worried. Thank God you’re finally home.” said Mrs. Bai with concern.

Bai Yao just nodded lightly and said, “I'm fine.”

He respected his mother and had filial piety in his heart. While in his daily life, he kept aloof and distant from her.

The reason behind this was, for a long time, his family members had been holding a respect for him, while keeping him in a distant with pairs of awed rather than warm eyes.

He gave up wrestling with this and got accustomed to it with days passed.

People who had never owned something would no longer have desires.

 “That’s great!” Mrs. Bai nodded with her eyes drifting to Bai Yao's arms from time to time. Finally, she could not help but ask, “Who is this in your arms, Yao?”

 “Her name is Xia Liang, who saved me from injury and will recuperate in our mansion.” Bai Yao looked at Xia Liang in his arms with eyes of tenderness even himself was unaware.

Bai Yao’s expression, in Mrs. Bai's eyes, was a great shock. Even though she had just seen it, the feeling of astonishment still could not disappear.

 “Then she is your savior and must be served well,” Mrs. Bai said later as if thinking of something.

 “Yao, I have a personal maid, an expert in making medicated food with excellent effects! I felt much better after eating her medicated diet for a month, even my long-term physical diseases seemed eradicated. How about keeping her on your side?”

Hearing that medicated diet was also good for health, Bai Yao immediately thought of Xia Liang's weak body and immediately agreed, “Fine.”

Seeing that he agreed, Mrs. Bai was delighted beyond measure. She hastily turned her head shouting: “Su Mei, come here, you’re Yao’s maid now.”

A woman in a pale yellow dress walked up in gracefully steps with feminine charms both in her gestures and expressions. Her waist was so slender as if it could be fractured by a fist. Anyone would have the desire to protect her seeing her appearance.

Moreover, the woman had delicate facial features. She was truly a beauty.

Anyone who saw her could not help but have an idea: What a pity this woman was just a servant girl! She should be kept in boudoir as a lady.

She came over and bowed to Bai Yao slowly and gracefully. Her voice was sweet, “I as the maid-servant, pay my respect to my general.”
