From Folly to Fortune：I Rewrite My Life After Rebirth!

”Why are you being like this? I’m just asking about the situation. Do you really need to be so secretive? Just be honest, what’s the harm?”

Wen Xiaoya was about to explode with anger; she had never encountered a man this stubborn before.

If she hadn’t seen him being ambushed, and didn’t know whether he’d applied medicine, she certainly wouldn’t have come over.

Wen Xiaoya followed Lu Yuanfeng, wandering around the room.

Wherever Lu Yuanfeng went, she went too, as if she was determined to confront him.

Lu Yuanfeng finally stopped walking, glanced at Wen Xiaoya, and after some consideration, finally replied, ”I’m fine now, thank you for your concern! However, this isn’t a place you should be. Please don’t come here again!”

Lu Yuanfeng ultimately thought about Wen Xiaoya’s identity as a daughter.

Being together with a man for too long could damage her reputation.

However, Wen Xiaoya didn’t understand. She listened to Lu Yuanfeng and thought he was looking down on her, not appreciating her kindness.

”What kind of talk is that? You come here, but I can’t? Why? Are you looking down on me?”

Wen Xiaoya’s face was full of anger. If not for the pity she felt for the injured man in front of her, she would’ve acted on her temper from before.

”I’m speaking the truth! Since you’re the General’s daughter, you shouldn’t come to the place of an insignificant person like me. If word gets out, it would affect your reputation, and mine as well!

Moreover, my injury has nothing to do with you, I accept the consequences of my actions, and there’s nothing pitiful about it!”

Lu Yuanfeng understood Wen Xiaoya’s thoughts, but he didn’t need her sympathy or pity.

When Wen Xiaoya heard that it would affect her reputation, she felt okay.

But when she heard that it would also affect him, Wen Xiaoya couldn’t sit still.

”What do you mean? How would my coming here affect you? How did you know I’m disguised as a man and the General’s daughter?”

”Miss, I originally did not want to answer, but I know with your persistence, if I don’t speak, you probably won’t let me off easily.

The reason I said it affects me is that I’ve already arranged a marriage back home. I have a wife, and if she found out that I’ve been hanging around with another woman, she wouldn’t want me anymore. Wouldn’t that have an impact on me?

As for your second and third questions, anyone with a brain can see it!”

After saying this, Lu Yuanfeng refused to utter another word to Wen Xiaoya.

He was naturally reserved and quiet, only speaking more when in front of the girl he liked.

If it weren’t for the fear that Wen Xiaoya would continue to pester him, he wouldn’t have given even half an explanation.

”You...you drive me mad!” Wen Xiaoya stomped her feet angrily.

Ultimately, as Lu Yuanfeng had predicted, she left his residence.

The room finally quieted down. Lu Yuanfeng put away the golden sore medicine and anti-inflammatory medicine that Mu Shuangshuang had given him, then separated Xing Beichen’s clothes from his own, placing his separately, waiting for when Xing Beichen visited him at night to deliver them.

The afternoon and evening were undoubtedly torturous for Lu Yuanfeng.

Fortunately, after night fell, Xing Beichen arrived.

When Lu Yuanfeng handed over the supplies prepared by Fu Xiaonan to Xing Beichen, Xing Beichen was completely stunned.

”This...this...did Shuangshuang really come????” Xing Beichen asked in astonishment, holding the heavy items.

”Mm, she has found a place to rest outside. Tomorrow, I’ll take leave and take her around Xing City for a day. Do you want to come?”

Once Lu Yuanfeng had finished speaking, Xing Beichen shook his head.

”Tomorrow won’t work. We have to leave the military camp to train elsewhere, and it’s uncertain for how many days, likely three to five days! Please extend my greetings to Shuangshuang!

Also, you didn’t say how Shuangshuang got here. I really admire her. When we both traveled to the Northwest, it was challenging, yet she came as she pleased. I feel we two aren’t even as capable as a girl.”

Xing Beichen sighed internally.

All along, Lu Yuanfeng had told him that Shuangshuang was coming to the Northwest soon, but he didn’t believe it.

He felt that Yuan Feng was too preoccupied with longing for Shuangshuang, thus creating an illusion.

Now it seems Fengzi’s intuition was right, and they both share a mutual understanding.

”She...” Lu Yuanfeng originally intended to explain to Xing Beichen that Shuangshuang arrived disguised as a man and in the company of escort masters, but then remembered that she was still under escort agency jurisdiction.

Should her identity be discovered, it could cause complications.

Thus, Lu Yuanfeng hesitated!

He needed to consult Shuangshuang to see if it was alright to inform others.

”Let’s wait until you see Shuangshuang next time and have her tell you personally!”

”Okay, hearing it from Shuangshuang will surely be more exciting!” Xing Beichen laughed cheerfully.

He began to look forward to the days after his training.

”By the way, Xiao Nan has left you a letter in your clothes; Shuangshuang said don’t forget to read it!” Lu Yuanfeng reminded.

Xing Beichen hurriedly found a torch and started reading the letter as Lu Yuanfeng kept watch.

After reading the letter, Xing Beichen was so ecstatic that he almost jumped with joy.

The letter from Fu Xiaonan expressed a lot of longing for him.

And as for Xing Beichen himself, he felt the same.

He held the letter as if holding Fu Xiaonan herself.

”Fengzi, please thank Shuangshuang for me. This letter came just in time; I feel like I can endure!”

Wen Nantian’s training was rightfully getting increasingly challenging.

Every day, Xing Beichen watched as the companions he had just gotten familiar with instantly turned into strangers.

He had no idea how long he could persevere.

”I’ll tell Shuangshuang!” said Lu Yuanfeng.

”I wonder how Xiao Nan, Uncle Dashan, and Aunt Si are doing!”

Xing Beichen remarked.

Lu Yuanfeng, too, couldn’t help but follow his train of thought, pondering about people a thousand miles away.

...

Mu Shuangshuang’s departure lasted for a month, leaving Mu Dashan and Yu Si Niang missing her dearly every day.

Especially Yu Si Niang, who prayed at home daily for her daughter’s safety.

However, as the days went by, things remained unsettling.

Mu Xiangxiang’s health gradually improved.

From initially bedridden to now being able to bask in the sun for a few hours each day.

Occasionally, villagers would visit Mu Xiangxiang, mostly to gossip.

They would deliberately or inadvertently inform Mu Xiangxiang about Mu Zhenzhen’s affair with Sun Dali.

Even Aunt Zhang, who had always been at odds with the Old Mu Family and happened to be Ma Houhou’s mother, personally visited to gossip about Mu Zhenzhen.

”Oh, Xiangxiang girl, such a bitter fate! Paralyzed as if that’s not enough, your man was snatched by your own sister, what a pity!”

Aunt Zhang feigned crocodile tears as she spoke to Mu Xiangxiang.
