Chapter 305 - A Declaration of Ownership (1/2)
Yang Jin extinguished the b.u.t.ter lamp, bringing darkness into the tent. She did not dare to sleep with the injured Ye Jian and opted to sleep on another Tibetan quilt that she had just brought out.
Outside the tent, Xia Jinyuan gave a cold look. “Uncle Chen, given Ye Jian’s injury, it would be inconvenient for her to move around. I will stand on guard here tonight. I will let Yang Jin take care of her 24 hours later. The injury might be serious, but her const.i.tution is good. As long as there is no inflammation, it should recover quickly.”
“Good, having you around puts my heart at ease, it’s just that…” Princ.i.p.al Chen glanced at Han Zheng and the rest and told them directly. “I want to speak to him regarding some private matters, the rest of you should go and rest.”
Private matters were definitely not meant for their ears. Moreover, they could sort of guess what the topic was.
Han Zheng smiled and patted Xia Jinyuan’s shoulder. “Too much happiness will bring you misery, Major Xia.” Han Zheng whispered before leaving.
Holding on to a lady, calling her ‘Little Fox’ – like a declaration of owners.h.i.+p. It was as if he was afraid of the others taking a few more glances.
A few moments ago, when he unintentionally looked at Ye Jian’s revealed shoulder, he was swept away by Major Xia’s glare. It felt as though he was going to devour him.
Babes before mates! It was good that Uncle Chen can discipline him.
What Princ.i.p.al Chen wanted to talk about was indeed related to Ye Jian. However, the contents were not known to Han Zheng and the others, not even Ye Jian herself.
It was already 1 am and even though the temperature outside was low, it was still warm and fuzzy inside the tent.
Currently, they were not at Uncle Cizha’s house, but another herdsman’s home now.
The male and female owners went to Dema’s house, leaving their three children behind. Uncle Chen took on the task of helping them take care of their family until they were back.
