Xiao Zi Xuan was probably the one who was least worried. After Xiao Yi Lin sent out his men, her heart was already at ease as she was sure of the capabilities of the secret soldiers from her Xiao's Residence.
And so, she played with her child in the courtyard everyday.
Qiao Tian Chang remained in the room with Ning Meng Yao. Only until she woke up once again did he finally not worry.
"Tian Chang, what's wrong with you?" She didn't know why but she always felt that Qiao Tian Chang was acting a little strange. She didn't realize it previously when she woke up, but she was sure this time, as if there was something hidden from her.
Qiao Tian Chang restrained all his emotions and let out a laugh. He stretched his hands out to help her lean against the bed.
"I'm fine, I'm just worried about you."
She was relieved when she heard him, and she reached to embrace his shoulders with a smile, "Tian Chang, you don't worry about me anymore. I'm fine now, am I not?"
"Yes, I'm glad you are." Qiao Tian Chang was slightly relieved and he forced a smile, "I'll ask Qing Shuang to come in and do a check on you."
"I'm really fine, you don't have to be so worried." Ning Meng Yao promptly reached for Qiao Tian Chang. She didn't want him to be so worried.
Qiao Tian Chang looked deeply at Ning Meng Yao with his lips pressed tightly together without a word. Even though he was quiet, Ning Meng Yao could see from his eyes that he was blaming himself.
"I'll just let Qing Shuang take a look, alright?" Ning Meng Yao didn't have any way with the expression on Qiao Tian Chang's face, and she could only nod her head helplessly.
Qiao Tian Chang finally revealed a smile on his face, and went out to call Qing Shuang in.
Very soon, Qing Shuang entered the room to take her pulse, "Young Master, don't worry. Missy is doing fine. She'll just need to recuperate."
"I understand." Qiao Tian Chang nodded his head to show his understanding.
After Qing Shuang left the place, Qiao Tian Chang looked at Ning Meng Yao, "The residence of the top general is ready, let's move there." Even though this was a good place and Xiao Qi Tian was his good brother, but it was ultimately not his own place and it wasn't very comfortable staying here.
Ning Meng Yao was taken aback and frowned. The Residence of the top general? Was he going to hold a post in the royal court? But he said to her before that he wouldn't return.
"Tian Chang, you……"
"Yao'er, I know what you're thinking. I just want to tell you that every decision I make is for your sake, this ident.i.ty will allow me to do things more conveniently. We'll leave together once things are done." How would Qiao Tian Chang not know of Ning Meng Yao's hesitation?
Ning Meng Yao was confused as she looked at Qiao Tian Chang. What did he need his previous ident.i.ty for?
"Those who hurt you, I won't let any of them get away with it." Qiao Tian Chang was full of hostility, almost as if he was about to explode.
Ning Meng Yao was a little taken aback and she felt weird inside. Although she was hurt by someone from the Qiao family, but it shouldn't have been enough to anger him so much.
However, she couldn't figure out what it was.
"Even though n.o.body would say anything at us staying in Qi Tian's Residence, but I still prefer my own place if we're going to be in the capital for a while." Qiao Tian Chang said softly.
Ning Meng Yao thought for a while and nodded her head.
After staying in the Qi's Residence for a few days, Qiao Tian Chang and Ning Meng Yao brought Qing Shuang to the Residence of the top general.
There were only a few guards and servants in the residence, and there wasn't anybody else.
Qiao Tian Chang was delighted, and he turned his head to Ning Meng Yao, "After you've recuperated, I'll ask someone to buy a few more maidservants."
Ning Meng Yao shook her head and rejected, "No need, Qing Shuang will call a few for me." It was easier to have servants whom she knew. She didn't like the thought of teaching the servants who were newly bought.
"Alright, I'll leave it up to you." Qiao Tian Chang nodded.
Qiao Tian Chang brought Ning Meng Yao to her room to rest, he then went to the kitchen to prepare tonics for her. He heard that a woman, who had gone through a miscarriage, must be taken care of as if she was in a confinement. If he was not careful, she would fall ill easily.
When Qiao Tian Chang carried the tonics in, Ning Meng Yao was hungry. She ate some afterwards but her face turned stiff, "Why is this tasteless?" There wasn't any taste other than the taste of a pinch of salt.
"Qing Shuang said you need to recuperate well, so you can't eat anything oily. I'll make some good food for you after some time."
