Chapter 1324: Chapter 1325: Let’s Make a Deal

Xiao Changyi nodded, yet did not say anything.

But An Jing knew that her husband had seen all the changes in Su Chengyuan and had long changed his view of him.

If Su Chengyuan continues to develop this way, perhaps in the future, he might really become the Great General.

”Husband,” suddenly, An Jing hugged Xiao Changyi’s arm, giggling, ”I need to give you some proper praise.”

”What for?”

”When you were teaching them, you never had any physical contact with them at all. You’ve preserved your purity just for me, ah, I’m so happy!” An Jing’s expression was somewhat exaggerated, but her words were sincere. She was truly happy.

Xiao Changyi just embraced her in his arms, the corners of his lips slightly curling, yet he still did not speak.

However, An Jing continued, ”You have no idea how envious Ye Zi is of me. She even told me yesterday that in future, she wants a husband who treats her as well as you treat me.”

Xiao Changyi finally spoke, ”She’s getting quite old. It’s time for her to marry.”

”Pfft.” An Jing immediately laughed out loud, ”Back where we come from, twenty-four is still very young. Even the age of my current body is twenty-six.”

Xiao Changyi reminded her, ”You became my wife six years ago.”

Which also implied: Ye Zhi, it’s truly time to get married, you’re not getting any younger.

Understanding the underlying message in Xiao Changyi’s words, An Jing laughed even more, ”She’s currently in the military camp, so it’s unlikely she’ll get married anytime soon. But it all depends on fate. You can’t rush it. Just like you and me, when fate arrived, it naturally happened.”

”Hmm.”

”Speaking of Ye Zi getting married... Just a few days ago, Gong Juechen was still proclaiming everywhere that Ye Zhi was his bride-to-be, why haven’t we seen him much these days?” An Jing found it a little strange. She had been quite busy these days, and no one had mentioned anything odd about Gong Juechen, so she hadn’t paid him much attention.

Xiao Changyi said, ”He’s busy trying to make Scar Removal Medicine for Ye Zhi. Not sure if he can really make it.”

An Jing sighed, ”He is so considerate of Ye Zhi. If he truly liked her for who she is, perhaps she wouldn’t be so opposed to him.”

Xiao Changyi stayed silent. In his view, Gong Juechen’s failure to win Ye Zhi’s heart was entirely his own doing. As for himself, he had no comment.

Meanwhile, Gong Juechen, unaware that Xiao Changyi and An Jing were discussing him, was indeed deeply focused on researching the Scar Removal Medicine.

Ye Zhi’s scar on her back was his obsession.

It was nearly dawn, and the sky had completely darkened; if not for the torches lit around the military camp, nothing would be visible.

Having produced a white creamy Scar Removal Medicine, Gong Juechen didn’t go to find Ye Zhi but instead sought out Meng Zhuqing.

”Zhuzhu, Zhuzhu, let’s make a deal,” Gong Juechen said with a playful grin as soon as he entered Meng Zhuqing’s tent.

”What deal?”

”I treat the scar on your face, and you help me test the medicine.”

”...Only you would have the nerve to put it that way, when clearly you just want me to test the medicine!”

Gong Juechen wasn’t embarrassed at all, still grinning cheekily, ”Perhaps it really can heal your scar.”

Meng Zhuqing replied irritably, ”My scar is too deep, it won’t disappear. I’m well aware of that.”

”Perhaps it could make your scar lighter and less noticeable. Look at all the scars on your face—don’t you want to improve them even just a little?”
