Picking Up a General to Plow the Fields

Chapter 548: Return

Lian Fang Zhou remained silent.
She sat on the side in a rare moment of reserved and obedient manners.
Listening to Third Aunt, she only gave Ah Jian a blank look.
This was also what she thought in her heart.

Seeing her blank look with her eyes full of anger and grievances, Ah Jian’s heart melted.
Once again, he wished it was only the two of them so he could express his heartfelt love.

“Third Aunt.” He said, interrupting Third Aunt’s complaints with a smile.
“I was afraid that you would be worried so I didn’t tell you where I was going.
But look! I’m back now.”

Third Aunt snorted.
“Of course it’s easy to say that you are back now.
But if you didn’t come back, how would we have found you? My Fang Zhou would become a joke and could only receive— peh, peh! In short, it was not good!”

She had always said ‘receive your body’ but fortunately she had stopped in time.

Lian Fang Zhou froze.
These words were very unlucky, she didn’t like to hear them!

“Yes, I was wrong! I won’t do it again!” Ah Jian said with good temper.
“But if I could choose again, I would still go.
I wanted to bring Fang Zhou the best betrothal gifts!”

Third Aunt was speechless.
After a moment, she sighed and said: “No wonder Fang Zhou likes you so much.
Seeing that you don’t talk much and are usually very quiet, I thought you were a sensible son-in-law who would make my brother happy.
But you don’t think! If something happened to you, what do you think Fang Zhou will do? Even if you can kill tigers and wolves, can you guarantee it? What if something happened? You must never do this kind of thing in the future! You and Fang Zhou must grow old together and be happy.
Nothing is more important than the passing of a lifetime!”

 Lian Fang Zhou had mixed feelings.

Stunned, Ah Jian hurriedly said: “I understand, Third Aunt! I will stay with Fang Zhou for the rest of my life, don’t worry! I won’t easy get involved in danger.”

Seeing Brother Ah Jian being scolded, Lian Fang Qing couldn’t listen anymore.
Thinking that Third Aunt would listen to her sister the most, she couldn’t help but shake Lian Fang Zhou’s arm and say childishly: “Sister, sister! Tell Third Aunt not to blame Ah Jian anymore! He just got back, he’s probably really tired!”

This little girl!

Lian Fang Zhou was startled and a little embarrassed but she looked Ah Jian and say that, though he didn’t look tired, he did look distressed.
She looked at Third Aunt.

She didn’t even speak before Third Aunt exclaimed in surprised and said: “Oh, thank you, Qing’er for reminding me.
You are about to be a groom, so you need to rest! Take a shower and change your clothes, we will have dinner later.
Rest for a few days, are you hurt anywhere?”

Ah Jian smiled and was about to say no when he quickly glanced at Lian Fang Zhou and changed his words.
“There is a small scratch, I wonder if there is any medicine, Fang Zhou?”

“A scratch!?” Third Aunt’s expression changed.
“Is it serious?”

Not expecting her reaction to be so big, Ah Jiang couldn’t help but feel guilty.
He quickly said: “It’s not serious, it’s not serious! It’s just a small scratch, really not serious.”

“That’s still not good! Why didn’t you deal with it on the mountain, weren’t you afraid of it getting worse? Tell me, why are you so careless! Fang Zhou, do you have any medicine? Why don’t you bring it out quickly?” Third Aunt quickly said.

“Please excuse me, you can send it to me later.
I will go back to my room first.” Ah Jian smiled at Lian Fang Zhou and left.

Lian Fang Zhou froze and then went up to her rom.

Taking out a bottle of medicine, she went to Ah Jian’s door and knocked lightly.
Just as she was about to call out, the door opened as if he had been waiting for her.
Before she could react, she was dragged into the room by Ah Jian.

She let out a soft cry as she crashed into a broad and strong chest.
His arms hugged her tightly, pressing her to his chest.

Lian Fang Zhou was dizzy for a moment.
She couldn’t resist, she couldn’t even think the word ‘resist’.
Clinging to him gently, she listened to the sound of his powerful heartbeat, beating like a drum under her ear.

“Why did you lose so much weight? I said I would come back safely, I didn’t lie!” Ah Jian said, hugging her waist tightly.
He buried his head in the hollow of her neck and his voice was hoarse.

Lian Fang Zhou’s eyes watered and the corner of her mouth couldn’t help but curl up slightly.
She really loved this person to the bottom of her heart!

Thinking this, her expression was sweet and her eyes were gently.
But even so, she struggled to push his chest away, saying lightly: “Hurry up and put on the medicine.
If the wound festers, it will be troublesome!”

“Hehe.” Ah Jian chuckled quietly.
Letting go of her slender waist, he took the opportunity to hold her hands in his palms and kiss her forehead affectionately.
Rubbing his head against hers, he said softly: “I just said that to give you an excuse to come see me.
We can keep talking, I’m not injured.”

Even though Lian Fang Zhou’s heart was sweet, her words were angry: “You scared Third Aunt! It’s a good thing she cares about you so much! Take a shower and change clothes so you can come out for dinner.
We will have time to talk later, there’s no rush.”

Thinking of how long it took him and what he would have eaten in the mountains, Lian Fang Zhou couldn’t help but feel distressed.
She wanted to ask for more details but she also cared about his health, so she pushed him away with a smile: “Stop dawdling, everyone is waiting for you! Bi Tao has prepared some hot water, go take a bath.”

But Ah Jian refused to let her go.
When she pushed him away, he only held her hands tighter.
He smiled and said: “We have time to talk later but I can’t wait now! I’ve never been away from you for so long.
Fang Zhou, I missed you so much!”

Lian Fang Zhou’s head was so dizzy and her body felt like it had lost all its strength.
She felt like she was floating.
Red and pink clouds flew around her face and her eyes were full of spring.
Her heart was soft and bubbling.

Sure enough, women can’t listen to love words the most!

She lowered her head and said in a small voice: “I missed you too.
If you didn’t come back, I would have gone crazy.”

“It’s my fault!” Ah Jian held her small hand to his lips and kissed it repeatedly.
“We’ll never be apart again! We will marry and be together every night!”

Lian Fang Zhou’s heart skipped a beat when she heard this.
Raisin her eyes, she teased him by pretending to be angry: “Your mouth can never be serious!” Her eyes twinkled like shining silk, filled with charm, and her smile was flirtatious.

Standing in front of Ah Jian was his sweetheart and she was his future wife.
In less than a month, she would be a married woman who shared his bed and slept under the same quilt.
If he could resist this, then he would not be a man.

Ah Jian sucked in a breath before grabbing her chin with one hand and gently holding the back of her head with his other.
Bowing his head, he kissed her red lips deeply.

Lian Fang Zhou groaned appreciatively, instinctively closing her eyes under the impact and opening her mouth.
She hugged his firm, strong waist with her hands and let him kiss her.
