Chapter 35: The Enemy Arrives at the Door

  Chapter Thirty-Five: The Bandit Arrives at the Door

  Moyao was lying on the roof, thinking about something and suddenly felt uninterested. Moreover, he came to Fulaizhen indeed for a proper matter. Although he was confused by Shenhan for a while, he wouldn't forget his true purpose of paying attention to Shenhan.

  "Sister... Eldest Sister seems to have woken up."

  "So soon this time?"

  Hearing Zhao Xi's voice inside the house, Mu Siyao hadn't had time to turn his head to look at the commotion below when Li's next sentence immediately made him furrow his brow. What was going on? Was it really that fast? Did he spend a long time unconscious last time?

  The changes on Muci Yao's face came one after another, and he himself didn't notice anything unusual, but it made Qian Shui, who was following him and hiding on the rooftop, feel a bit strange. The young master usually didn't show such strong emotions, so what was it about this woman named Shen Han that made him pay attention to her like this?

  Just as Qian Shui was entangled in Yu's reaction, Shen Han finally slowly woke up from her dazed and confused coma. Her closed eyelids fluttered open, and the first shadow that entered her eyes was Li's enlarged face, although it was a bit blurry, but it didn't hinder her recognition. She hurriedly opened her mouth and said: "Mother..."

  "Hey! Don't talk first, I'll go get you a glass of water."

  When she heard Shen Huan's slightly hoarse voice, Li couldn't help but feel heartache. She didn't have the luxury to care about what was going on in her mind anymore, all she could do was listen to that originally pleasant voice which had now become weak and slightly husky. It pained Li's heart, as she still preferred and was more used to hearing Shen Huan's clear and crisp voice, happily calling out to her "mother".

  Shen Huan wanted to nod, but she couldn't muster up any strength, so she could only use her eyes to send off Li's back as he left. At this moment, she had also adapted to the clarity of waking up from a coma, and her vision was clear again. She saw that Shen Yi Feng was still there, and she couldn't help but forget Li's instructions and speak again: "Big brother, why are you still here?"

  "I was originally going to go back, but just as I walked into the courtyard, I heard Auntie say that you fainted. How could I leave with a clear conscience?"

  Upon hearing this, Shen Huan felt a little moved. She had taken over someone else's body and also received the care and love of her family, while her mother-in-law's house was not as well-off, but it was much more relaxing than when she was at her natal home. There was no sister-in-law to provoke her, no difficulty being sandwiched between her brothers, just simple days... In order for her life in ancient times to be easier, these simple days must be maintained, and the living conditions should be improved.

  "But sister-in-law will definitely be anxious at home."

  "Just don't bother me anymore, listen to Auntie's words and rest well first."

  Seeing Shen Yi Feng persist, Shen Han also stopped talking and lay quietly with her eyes closed, but she always felt that something was not quite right, as if she could feel someone staring at her. She turned to look at the person in front of the bed, Shen Yi Feng's eyes were filled with worry, while Zhao Xi Qiao's eyes had something that Shen Han couldn't understand but wasn't obvious. When her gaze shifted to Hu You Xuan, it became a faint smile. Shen Han didn't have the energy to think about what was behind his smile, although the feeling of being pressured still lingered, she could only choose to ignore it, closing her eyes weakly and opening them again to find herself somewhat spaced out.

  "Come and have some water."

  Li just lifted the curtain and entered the house, greeting everyone. She walked to Shen Han's bedside, handed the cup in her hand to Zhao Xiuzhuo, then went to support Shen Han, propped up the pillow for her, took back the cup, and sent it to Shen Han's mouth.

  "Mother, I'll do it myself!"

  "Don't be silly! You're being careless now. Breaking a cup is no big deal, but getting the quilt wet, where am I going to find you a new one?"

  At these words, Shen Huan couldn't help but laugh. She collected laundry at home every day, how could she not know if there were any quilts at home? Her family wasn't so poor that they didn't have quilts to cover themselves with, it's just that her mother-in-law spoke like this because she pitied herself, and Shen Huan couldn't help but understand.

  Shen Huan fainted at the moment of childbirth, just like last time, but she didn't fall into a coma for many days like last time. Li was relieved, not to mention that her body couldn't take it, and Shen Yi Feng was still here. If Shen Huan hadn't woken up, it would have been a pressure on her. It was the first time her mother-in-law came over, and something like this happened. Even if there were internal reasons, people would think she didn't take good care of her daughter-in-law.

  "Is there anywhere uncomfortable? I'll go find Dr. Liu to take a look again."

  "Mom, I just feel a bit tired and weak, no need to find Dr. Liu."

  As soon as she heard that they wanted to find a doctor, Shen Huan immediately spoke out to stop them. Not to mention that there was no money at home to see a doctor now, even if there was spare money, she didn't want to drink those so-called tonics for several days again, which were more difficult to eat than anything else. Besides, this time she also brought back a lot of nourishing things, why would they still need to find a doctor?

  Shen Huan herself was clear about her physical condition, and although this time it might also be due to overuse of her powers leading to a coma, it wasn't as severe as last time. When she fainted, it wasn't much different from when she had fainted before - everything just went black and she fell.

  So Shen Han can determine that she's actually fine, maybe it was just the exhaustion after using her powers and fainting from physical weakness, and this time she woke up in a short amount of time, so there's nothing to worry about.

  "Sister... Eldest sister just woke up, let's not disturb her anymore, let's go out and let her rest well!"

  "Alright, alright... Han'er, you rest for now, I'll call you when dinner is ready."

  Shen Han couldn't help but turn her head to glance out the window, it was still early in the evening at most. Did her mother-in-law mean for her to sleep all the way until nightfall? She smiled wryly and nodded at her, then looked at Shen Yi Feng with a helpless expression.

  "Big brother you..."

  "Since you're free, I'll head back first and let mom and them know everything is fine."

  "Don't mention what happened when I fainted when you go back!"

  Shen Han clearly saw a slight change in Mrs. Li's expression when Shen Yifeng mentioned going home to report safety, and she immediately understood her mother-in-law's worries. She immediately gave herself an alarm clock, not letting her honest big brother go back and confess everything, this matter originally had nothing to do with the Li family, it was only because of her own desire to prove the existence of supernatural powers that things had developed to this point. Although her big brother didn't know the truth, she couldn't let him naively reveal everything, increasing their parents' worries for no reason.

  "Don't worry, I'm not as stupid as you think."

  "Yi Feng, why don't you stay here and wait until Huan'er is better before going back? That way, when you go back, you'll have an explanation to give to your family."

  Li couldn't help but feel a little worried, although he said that there was nothing much to do here, he could still find a place for him to settle down, and since he had already added Hu Youxuan, he wasn't afraid of adding another one.

  Shen Yifeng was worried about his sister, but because of the lesson he learned before, he had always been direct and feared that he would unintentionally say something that would offend others. He immediately shook his head and said: "What's there to explain? Everyone in the family knows that my little sister is not well, besides, Auntie has been so good to her, what else do we have to worry about?"

  Shen Yifeng is a sincere person, and his words are also quite direct. Although some of what he says may not sound pleasant to the ear, there are times when his words can be particularly comforting to listen to. Just now, for instance, Li heard him speak and felt her anger dissipate despite herself.

  "Young lady, you can rest first, I'll head back now, feel free to come visit us at home when you're free."

  "Okay, then, would you mind helping me send my brother off?"

  It seems there's nothing more to say, Li nodded and left Shen Huan's room with Shen Yi Feng and others. She faintly heard murmurs outside the door, probably afraid of disturbing her rest, so Shen Huan didn't pay attention, simply shifted her body and lay quietly in a daze.

  A flash of light flickered before her eyes, and Shen Huan looked up at the roof, but didn't find anything unusual. However, that feeling of being stared at still existed. She felt a bit uneasy and turned over, suddenly startled and opening her mouth wide, almost shouting out loud.

  Outside the window, a smiling man was standing, seeing that she seemed to be frightened, Mu Siyao made a silencing gesture with her hand, if not so, Shen Han would have shouted out loud, she restrained herself from shouting only because there was also a very cold and beautiful woman standing beside him.

  "It's okay... If you had shouted it out, I would have definitely been mistaken for a thief!"

  Looking at the man leaning on the window and whispering to himself, Shen Han couldn't help but mock him in her heart: Don't you think you look like a thief right now?

  At the same time, there was a strange feeling that before seeing him, she had thought he was from some secret assassination organization. Fortunately, she had managed to slip away quickly at the time, but after thinking about it carefully later, if that were really the case, how could she have returned to her husband's home so easily?

  Just now she didn't want to shout loudly, but thought that if she shouted out loud, what if he was really from some organization? Wouldn't it implicate her mother-in-law and younger uncle? She had no strength at all right now, even if she called them over, it would be of no use!

  "What are you staring at me for? Don't worry, although I know your secrets, I'm not a bad person!"

  Don't explain it like that, otherwise Shen Han immediately translated his words into a threatening tone with hidden meaning, the translation is as follows: Looking at me you don't even know who I am, but I know your secrets, and... I'm not a good person!
