The Boss Transmigrated Into A Matriarchy Novel (Quick Transmigration ARC 3) Chapter 122(37)
Then, as if remembering something, Qiao Yun immediately shrank into the blanket, leaving only his shy eyes showing.
Nan Jun looked at the little man who was so embarrassed that he wanted to disappear, and pulled his naked body into her arms from under the covers.
“Are you awake?”
Qiao Yun blushed and nodded, his body stiffening as he dared not move.
“Does it still hurt?”
The scenes from last night flashed before Qiao Yun’s eyes again. She bit her lip shyly and murmured, “It hurts…”
“Then let me massage it for you again.”
Nan Jun’s touch was gentle, but Qiao Yun’s body was stiff after waking up, making him seem somewhat uncomfortable.
Thinking that he had become hers, Qiao Yun felt both shy and happy. His face was flushed and he remained silent for a long time before he spoke softly.
“When did Sister Jun realize that Yun’er was your Wang Jun?”
“When you intentionally let me know.”
Qiao Yun suddenly started practicing swordsmanship in the back garden every day. Wasn’t he intentionally trying to reveal his identity to Nan Jun?
However, by a twist of fate, Nan Jun was seen painting by An Yu that day, which is how she learned about his identity early in the morning.
Qiao Yun hadn’t expected that she had already recognized him at that time. His big eyes were staring at Nan Jun’s face, making Nan Jun feel uneasy.
“What’s wrong? Is there something on my face?”
Nan Jun touched her face and asked, puzzled.
“Yun’er also sees that Sister Jun is clear-headed in everything, so why is she still being played by a man?”
The thought of Lian Qing ruined Qiao Yun’s good mood, and his body ached even more.
Feeling guilty, Nan Jun pulled Qiao Yun into her arms and inhaled the familiar medicinal scent emanating from him.
“It was indeed my oversight. At the time, I only felt that the person taking care of me had a different voice, but his smell was exactly the same as before. You know, I couldn’t see at that time, and my head was spinning, so I mistook him for you.”
“Hmph!” Qiao Yun said coquettishly, “Back then, I carried you back to Liu Family Village when you were unconscious all by myself, and took care of you day and night for more than two months without taking off my clothes. Yet you still brought other men back to your mansion and treated them like honored guests, while you glared at me coldly. What a clever idea!”
Although Qiao Yun’s words only contained a third of his resentment, Nan Jun could still empathize with them.
Even if Nan Jun wasn’t fat, it would still take a lot of effort for a man to carry her, let alone the fact that Qiao Yun had pulled her back from the brink of death!
“Good Yun’er, my life is yours from now on. Whatever you say goes. Please forgive me this time!”
Nan Jun nuzzled Qiao Yun’s head in a fawning manner, feigning pitifulness.
“How could I really blame you? If I did, I would have been driven to my death a hundred times over.”
Qiao Yun smiled, a smile that carried three parts bitterness and seven parts relief. Now that his wish had finally come true, he was unwilling to mention the past anymore.
“I didn’t expect that Lian Qing would share the same name as you, which is why I discovered it a little late. Now that the truth has come out, I’ll leave Lian Qing entirely to Yun’er’s care.”
The light in Qiao Yun’s eyes suddenly dimmed, and he did not show much joy because of Nan Jun’s words.
“He was a pitiful man. We were friends since childhood, but I didn’t know how sincere he was. His family had long since disowned him. My master took pity on him and brought him back to the mountains, but he still had wicked intentions and set his sights on you.”
“If you still care about the past friendship, then have someone send him back to your master. We will leave him alone.”
Nan Jun didn’t necessarily have to punish Lian Qing. Although Lian Qing was a bit scheming, he still took care of him for several days, so he wasn’t too bad.
“But the thought that he tampered with your medicine makes me…”
Qiao Yun puffed up his cheeks in anger, and Nan Jun quickly leaned over and kissed him, stopping him from saying the rest of his words.
“I’m perfectly fine, aren’t I? We should thank him for not poisoning me, otherwise how could I have won the heart of my beauty?”
“How can you still be in the mood to joke? If he had used that medicine even slightly incorrectly, Yun’er would be looking for you in the underworld right now!”
“But isn’t he your junior brother? He shouldn’t have given me the wrong medicine!”
“My master once said that he was of bad character and was afraid that he would use his skills to harm others and himself in the future, so he never taught him medicine, but only how to grow herbs. How could he possibly prescribe any medicine?”
“I see. Your master truly has a keen eye for talent.”
Some people’s good and evil are truly written in their eyes. Although Nan Jun is not good at judging people, she knows that she will not like Lian Qing the moment she sees him.
“Perhaps sending Lian Qing back to his master is the best outcome for him.”
“I’ll do whatever Yun’er says.”
“When Yun’er saw Sister Jun covered in blood, Yun’er had never felt so fortunate. She was so glad that she had chosen to learn medicine from her master and that she was able to save Sister Jun from the brink of death.”
Qiao Yun hugged Nan Jun’s neck tightly; even now, thinking back on it, he still felt a little scared.
No one knows how he got through those days. If Nan Jun hadn’t survived, Qiao Yun probably would have gone with her.
“My rebirth this time is all because of Yun’er. From now on, Nan Jun’s heart and soul belong only to Yun’er. If you tell me to go east, I will never go west; if you tell me to catch a dog, I will never chase a chicken.”
Qiao Yun chuckled at Nan Jun’s words, but still clung to her neck, reluctant to let go.
At this moment, Qiao Yun no longer cared about being shy. Or rather, he had always known that he only loved Nan Jun, and he didn’t need to be shy in front of her.
Nan Jun personally helped Qiao Yun change clothes and comb his hair, as An Yu prepared a table full of food, just to make up for the fact that she had not cherished the man in front of her in the past.
“After the meal, I had the steward summon everyone in the manor. Now that you have become the master of this manor, they should pay their respects to you.”
Nan Jun said as she served food to Qiao Yun.
Qiao Yun nodded and did not refuse Nan Jun’s kindness. She was trying to establish his authority, and as the young master of the Qiao family, Qiao Yun would not allow anyone to look down on him.
Lian Qing had already made his plans when he realized he was hungry. He was about to call someone to bring him food when he opened the door to find the courtyard empty.
Lian Qing called out several times: “Hongliu…”
Apart from the rustling of leaves, nothing else could be heard.
Lian Qing was curious, so he went out alone to look for the person. He also wanted to know if something had happened in the mansion, so he called all the servants away.
Nan Jun and Qiao Yun sat on a fine pear wood chair, with all the servants and stewards of the Eighth Princess’s mansion standing below them.
“Wang Jun has been at my residence for some time now, but due to my poor health, I have not been able to allow you to pay your respects to him. However, since the weather is warm today, let’s take this opportunity to greet him here.”
