However, he did not see anyone after waiting for a long time. Instead, he heard someone report that his cousin had returned.

He thought that his cousin-in-law must have felt that it was not appropriate for a woman to see another man. His cousin would definitely bring her along. However, the servant said that the two of them had already returned to the bamboo courtyard.

With such an unreliable brother and sister-in-law, he was extremely curious about this sister-in-law who dared to cross the Great Xia Kingdom alone to chase after her husband. He could only come over himself.

At the mention of Shen Yijia, Song Jingchen’s expression immediately softened. “She’s already resting. Come back another day.”

Was he trying to send him away?

Shangguan Han returned to his room in a daze and listened to the servant tell him everything that had happened at the entrance of the residence. He was even more curious about his magical sister-in-law.

Song Jingchen cooked the porridge. It was barely enough for a bowl. He pursed his lips and thought about where to get some meat to nourish Shen Yijia’s body.

Song Jingchen didn’t know when she would wake up. He stuffed some more firewood into the stove and placed the porridge inside to cool it down. Just as he was about to return to his room, Rooster came looking for him again.

He was here to apologize. After all, he was the one who brought Young Madam here, although he did not volunteer.

He thought that he would definitely be punished, but Song Jingchen didn’t say anything. He only asked him to recount everything that had happened on the way.

Hearing that Mo Yuan clung to Shen Yijia and called her Little Miss, Song Jingchen frowned.

Rooster glanced at him carefully before gritting his teeth and telling him about Qian Youde. As expected, his master’s face darkened.

In for a penny, in for a pound. He told her about how he saved Ah Xun and how he was attacked by the Huns.

Shen Yijia was really exhausted. When Song Jingchen returned to his room, she was still asleep. He sat by the bed and quietly looked at her sleeping face. He couldn’t help but think of what Rooster had said.

Song Jingchen’s heart ached and he regretted it when he thought about how much this girl had suffered in order to find him. If he had known earlier, he wouldn’t have left without saying goodbye.

He should have brought her with him. No matter what danger they were in, at least he would be by her side. It was better than her being alone.

“Hubby.” Shen Yijia opened her eyes and saw Song Jingchen. Her eyes lit up and a smile blossomed on her face. She stood up and wanted to throw herself into his arms.

Song Jingchen came back to his senses and opened his arms to catch her. Unexpectedly, Shen Yijia suddenly changed direction and threw herself back onto the bed.

She buried her face in the sheets.

She remembered what she had forgotten. Because she was too excited to see her beautiful husband, she actually forgot to be angry at him and even forgot to beat him up.

She was definitely a person who kept her word.

Song Jingchen didn’t know that someone was secretly preparing to settle scores with him.

He was still feeling sorry for her and reached out to see if she was injured.

Shen Yijia sensed his movements and rolled to the side of the bed to avoid Song Jingchen’s hand. She turned her back to him and didn’t let him look at her.

Song Jingchen was stunned, and his hand froze in midair. If he still didn’t know what Shen Yijia meant, then he wasn’t Song Jingchen.

He smiled helplessly and said gently, “I made porridge myself just now. Do you want some?”

“My beautiful husband cooked it himself?” she thought.

Shen Yijia got up and glanced at Song Jingchen. She puffed up her cheeks and raised her chin. “Hmph, don’t think that I won’t be angry after eating your porridge. I’m very difficult to coax.”

Song Jingchen couldn’t help but chuckle at her appearance. When he met Shen Yijia’s accusing gaze, he quickly stopped smiling and nodded seriously. “Alright, then you have to eat your fill before you have the strength to be angry at me, right?”

“Alright.” Shen Yijia licked her lips and agreed reluctantly.

Song Jingchen held back his laughter and coughed lightly.

He quickly went to the kitchen and brought the porridge over. The porridge was thick and fragrant, even if no extra ingredients were added.

Shen Yijia was already starving. She took the porridge and wolfed it down.

Her husband was right. You had to eat to have the energy to be angry. The two things didn’t conflict.

Seeing that she was satisfied with just a bowl of porridge, Song Jingchen felt his heart ache.

He pursed his lips and reached out to rub Shen Yijia’s head gently. His heart ached. “Drink slowly. I’ll see if I can catch some prey tomorrow. I’ll make you something delicious then.”

Apart from the horses, the other livestock that could be eaten had long been slaughtered.

Fortunately, the food he brought back this time was enough to last for a few days.

Shen Yijia was stunned. She swallowed the porridge in her mouth and curled her lips. “I’ll only let you touch me once. You can’t touch me before you appease me.”

After saying that, she angrily stuffed the remaining half bowl of porridge into Song Jingchen’s hand and fell onto the bed. She wrapped herself tightly in the blanket from head to toe. “Hmph, I’m full. You’re not allowed to sleep here tonight.”

“Also, I’ll punish you by making you finish the porridge I’ve eaten. Otherwise… otherwise, I’ll be even angrier and I’ll be even more difficult to appease.”

Song Jingchen looked at the half bowl of porridge in his hand and felt uncomfortable.

Actually, there was still some fine rice in the kitchen, but he wanted to keep it to cook porridge for her. It was the same for the brown rice he had brought back today.

He smiled bitterly and shook his head. This girl wasn’t silly at all. She clearly understood everything.

He didn’t force her to get up and finish the rest of the porridge. Instead, he obediently finished it himself before gently tugging at the blanket. He said hoa.r.s.ely, “I’m done.”

“Got it. I’m going to bed. You should go.”

Shen Yijia’s m.u.f.fled voice came from under the blanket.

Song Jingchen was silent for a moment before sighing. “I’ll sleep in the room next to yours. If anything happens, just call me loudly.”

After waiting for a while, Shen Yijia did not speak again. Instead, rhythmic snores sounded one after another, as if she was humming a tune.

Song Jingchen chuckled and left the room with the bowl.

He knew that Shen Yijia was pretending to be asleep, so he could stay.

However, when he thought of the bowl of porridge, he still came out. He could not bear to let her eat just a single bowl of porridge. He had to solve the root cause of the problem.

“I knew you would come, Song Jingchen of the Great Xia Kingdom.” Ah Xun sat upright in a chair. Because he was not tall enough, his feet could only hang in the air and sway.

He looked at the masked man who had suddenly appeared in his room.

He looked so smart, and no longer looked like the obedient and pitiful boy that appeared in front of Shen Yijia.

Song Jingchen raised his eyebrows and took off his mask after sitting down opposite him.

The Huns were warlike and had been raised to be so.

Even ordinary children could not be underestimated, let alone the little prince of the Royal Court. If he was not smart enough, he would probably have died under someone’s blade.

Therefore, Song Jingchen didn’t treat him like a child at all.

“So you followed my wife specifically to find me?”

There was a moment of silence.
