Peaceful Farm Life-Chapter 2045 - 2046: A Man’s Pride

Qi Linglong said, "My sister is too strong. Back in the Imperial Capital, whenever she got into a fight, that person either broke an arm or a leg. Men were afraid of her and didn’t dare to marry her." 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

An Yilin immediately felt relieved.

Thankfully, I only have a fractured bone, I only have a fractured bone, I only have a fractured bone...

An Yilin kept hypnotizing himself not to let his male pride be hurt. It’s not that his martial arts are inferior to Qi Jiaoqiao’s; it’s just that she has innate Divine Power, which is incomparable.

However, An Yilin realized that only when there was no food in front of her could Qi Linglong speak with him properly.

...

Returning to the Royal Palace, An Yilin sent Wang Wenya directly to the Palace to see An Jing and Xiao Changyi, while he took Qi Linglong to his second brother, Su Yixing’s courtyard.

As soon as Qi Linglong entered the main room of Su Yixing’s courtyard, she saw several plates of food on the table. Her eyes instantly fixated, and she couldn’t move. She just stared at those plates of food. Seeing this, An Yilin quickly picked up a plate of lotus cake from the table and handed it to Qi Linglong.

Then, not bothering whether Qi Linglong had eaten the lotus cake or not, he said to Su Yixing, "Second Brother, I think my left arm is fractured. Please take a look."

Su Yixing was playfully scrutinizing Qi Linglong. He felt that his sixth brother seemed to be particularly good to this girl, but before he could ask who she was, he heard his sixth brother say he had a fracture, which shocked him.

"You have a fracture and still care enough to get her something to eat? You’re quite considerate," Su Yixing teased while carefully examining An Yilin’s injury.

An Yilin didn’t say anything, but just glanced at Qi Linglong, who wasn’t even looking at him and was completely focused on the lotus cake in her hand, eating it with particular satisfaction in small bites. Seeing this, An Yilin was momentarily annoyed but soon felt relieved.

Because he knew that when there was food around, Qi Linglong’s eyes only saw the food. Getting upset with her over this was just tormenting himself.

"By the way, who is this girl?" Su Yixing asked.

An Yilin then replied, "She’s the third daughter of General Du and General Qi; her name is Qi Linglong."

Su Yixing was planning to ask more about Qi Linglong but then realized An Yilin’s fracture was quite serious, furrowing his brows tightly, "How did this happen? How are you so seriously injured?"

"Is it really that serious?" An Yilin was also startled. "It won’t cripple me, will it?" He certainly didn’t want to have only one usable arm in the future.

Su Yixing said, "It’s not that bad, but it won’t heal without at least a year and a half of recovery."

With the assurance that his arm wouldn’t be crippled, An Yilin breathed a huge sigh of relief, "The recovery period is long, but it’s better than being crippled." He thought optimistically.

While Su Yixing was aligning An Yilin’s bones with a wooden board, he asked again, "You still haven’t told me how this happened?"

Before An Yilin could speak, An Jing and Xiao Changyi rushed in. Clearly, they had learned about An Yilin’s injury from Wang Wenya.

Having been injured, there was no way to hide it, so An Yilin did not ask Wang Wenya to keep it a secret.

Seeing An Jing and Xiao Changyi arrive anxiously, Su Yixing quickly said, "Father and Mother, don’t worry. It’s just a fracture. A year and a half of rest and it’ll be healed."

Even if their son only had a fracture, An Jing and Xiao Changyi couldn’t help but be concerned and heartbroken.

Xiao Changyi didn’t say much; it was An Jing who asked with concern, "How did you manage this, child? Look at how you’ve worn yourself out."
