“I haven’t had any appetite since then. I can’t eat too much right now, or my stomach will suffer. I’ll take my meals appropriately tomorrow. Be good and eat yours now. There’s no need to worry about me.”

As he spoke, Mo Jingshen touched her slightly pale little face. “You’re eating for two now. For the past few days, you haven’t been getting the necessary nutrition. Now that you can’t even bear to eat bread, those who don’t know might think that I’ve been bullying Mrs. Mo.”

Ji Nuan buried her face in his chest. “Thank god most of your wounds are on your back. Otherwise, I won’t even be able to lean on your arms.”

At the XI base, some men had jumped off the helicopter with a parachute and were injured by the stray bullets. Thus, after they cooperated with the police to aid them in collecting evidence, they quickly flew out of the forest.

Currently, the wounded members were not very stable. Thankfully, there was a doctor from the base who accompanied them.

When the plane landed, Ji Nuan found out that they planned to rest a night at the warehouse and bulletproof shack to care for the wounded members. After their conditions were stabilized, they would be sent to America to receive better care.

Ji Nuan had previously stayed here for two nights, so it wasn’t unfamiliar to her.

However, since the moment they landed, Mo Jingshen did not take any breaks and immediately left with Nan Heng.

Deep in the night, Ji Nuan held the phone Feng Ling had kept well for her. She took a glance at the time; it was approaching midnight.

He wasn’t resting despite his serious injuries. At this time, he actually still had things to discuss. Did he not want his wife and his life anymore?

Not long after, when Mo Jingshen entered the compartment Ji Nuan was in, he immediately saw that the little woman was clearly unhappy.

“What happened?”

“Nothing much. I was so distracted by my phone that I didn’t notice how much time has passed. I’m going to change. You go out first.” Ji Nuan did not look at him.

This little woman was actually displaying a tantrum. Mo Jingshen glanced at her clothes; it was a white sarong Feng Ling had deliberately gone across Tonlé Sap Lake to buy for her. It was purchased from a farm and could be considered a local specialty. The one Ji Nuan was wearing fitted her well. It was not too plain and was suitable for young people to wear.

He held in a smile. “Change?”

Ji Nuan did not pause to process what his thoughtful expression meant. She stood up to push him out.

“Go out.”

“Why do I have to leave?”

“I’m not just changing. I’m taking a shower as well.” Ji Nuan pointed toward a bucket of hot water in the room. “It’s been days since I showered. I’m smelly to death right now.”

Originally, she had been planning to let Mo Jingshen shower first after he returned. However, after waiting for so long, she now had a belly full of anger.

“Let’s not talk about how there’s no need for me to leave even if you’re showering. Are you even able to shower with your injured hand?” Mo Jingshen held in a smile, throwing an intentional glance at her hand, which appeared like a dumpling after the doctor bandaged it.

Ji Nuan: “...”

In the afternoon, when Feng Ling helped her bandage it, she did not wrap it so tightly. At that time, she was still able to move her fingers.

Now that her hand appeared like a dumpling, it took her a lot of energy even to hold her phone. Taking a shower would prove to be an even larger challenge.

She realized the problem and immediately appeared embarrassed: “Then I won’t shower. I’ll just stink you to death.” As she spoke, she moved to head out.

She had only just opened the door when a click resounded. The man behind her reached out his long arm and closed the door.

Ji Nuan turned back to look at him. In the quiet night, although the scent of blood on him had mostly faded, the both of them were covered in wounds. The moment their gazes met, seeing his ink-black eyes, her heart suddenly tightened. “Why don’t you go shower first...”

He glanced at her hand and immediately started tugging her dress down from her shoulders.

Ji Nuan: “...”

Although the man had injuries on his back and his head, it did not affect his movements at all.

His actions could be described as ‘natural,’ as though he was peeling a tangerine. In the blink of an eye, the dirtied, white sarong was almost completely peeled off.

“It’s not as if I’ve never helped you shower before. You’re being embarrassed now?” After taking off her clothes, he spoke lightly and used his eyes to indicate the wooden bucket by the side. “This way of bathing is so primitive. The wooden bucket is so small. Even if I help you, it’s not as if there is any extra space for me to do anything, is there?”

Ji Nuan: “Even if there is space, you can’t do anything to me right now. In the first three months of my pregnancy, you’re not allowed to do anything.”

Mo Jingshen raised his brows and stared at her deeply. “Did Qin Siting tell you that?”

“No, earlier when I was looking at my phone, I read through some common knowledge on pregnancy.”

“You sure checked at an appropriate time.”

“...With your wounds, what else do you want to do? It’s been days since you’ve eaten. Do you have infinite stamina?”

“Things like stamina vary according to what is being done.”

Ji Nuan: “...”

When she sat in the small, wooden bucket, Ji Nuan was slightly dazed. This way of showering could not be more primitive, and it led her to question how exactly people in Cambodia lived. Previously, when they left the airport, she clearly saw that there were many modern buildings in the surroundings. There were also many well-dressed people passing by. Their lives appeared very peaceful and prosperous.

However, she suspected that the lifestyle of the people in the villages near the lake was very different from the people in the cities.

She watched as Mo Jingshen folded his sleeves up and approached. Looking at Mo Jingshen’s face through the mist, Ji Nuan suddenly said: “How about we ask Feng Ling to come and help me instead...”

She hesitated for a moment before speaking. Although she and Feng Ling were women, she had never bared her body in front of her. If she really asked Feng Ling to come, perhaps she would feel embarrassed.

It was true that she did not like being touched by others. She was only used to Mo Jingshen’s touch.

But Mo Jingshen’s wounds were much more serious than hers.

The man had already dipped his hand into the water. He tested the temperature and scooped some water to pour over her shoulders. He said mildly, “I won’t allow anyone else to touch you. Men are not allowed, and neither is someone like Feng Ling who alternates between being a man and a woman.”

“...”

What did he mean by alternating between being a man and a woman?

Feng Ling had only pretended to be a man in the base. From inside to outside, she was clearly a woman.

Since they were already here, Ji Nuan did not say more. She leaned against the wooden bucket and allowed the man to help her as he pleased. At the same time, she said, “By the way, since we won’t have any more opportunities to return to the condo in T City, shall we sell it? Or should we...”

While speaking, the room suddenly darkened. The moment she opened her eyes, she saw that the man had leaned his head down.

A distinct, pleasant scent surrounded her. In an instant, all she could smell was his scent. “You... what are you...”

The man’s fingers lifted her chin. He watched her thin face and said darkly and huskily, “I’ll help you shower later. Let me kiss you for a while first.”

The moment he finished speaking, he leaned down to kiss her.
