124 Endangering His Life (1/2)

At that moment, Rin's mind immersed in past memories while staring at the lone, blood-soaked figure on the horse. Ice white snow and strands of golden hair painted in dark red blood flashed before her eyes.

She continued to stare at An Sun's wounded body in a daze before quickly suppressing the anxiety in her heart and setting into action.

”Inform Governor Duyi of the situation and get a physician from Jilin now!” Rin shouted as she stared at the two nearby soldiers, her eyes flashing with a chilling glint.

Both soldiers broke from their terror and shock, rapidly nodding their heads. ”Yes, Advisor Bai!”

Urgently, Rin strode toward An Sun where his injured body lay motionlessly onto his black horse.

”Help me get him into a tent!” Rin ordered expressionlessly.

Two Tuhan soldiers who had been nearby helped hoist An Sun's body from his horse and held him up while carrying him into a nearby tent.

Placing him down carefully on the bed, the two men shifted away to make room for the small figure who followed them from behind.

Rin lowered her gaze and looked at the slender figure covered in bloodstains lying weakly on the bed. She could not stop the frown growing on her lips nor the crease in her brows upon staring at him.

An Sun's face was incredibly pale, nearly transparent without a trace of color, while his lips were colorless and cracked. A few stray locks of damp black hair clung to his sweaty face. His chest rose slowly with rugged and tremulous breaths.

But what stood out the most was the wooden arrow pierced deeply into his shoulder.

When she saw the arrow in his shoulder, Rin felt her heart turn sour and as if she swallowed a large stone, her throat tightened.

She never expected An Sun to return injured.

The sound of urgent footsteps neared the tent. Rushing into the tent with sweat coating his forehead was Manchu.

”What the hell happened?!”

The usual humor in his eyes was gone, replaced with rage and anxiety. His gaze swept toward An Sun's injured body and the fists by his side clenched.

He cast a cold look to a soldier and ordered in a cold tone, ”Hurry up and call for a physician!”

The Tuhan soldier standing by the side gulped anxiously when faced with Manchu's sharp glare, ”Advisor Bai already ordered some men to get one from Jilin province, but he has yet to arrive.”

Manchu's face turned dark. How could they wait when An Sun was in pain and bleeding to death? A feeling of helplessness filled him as he stared at the unconscious An Sun.

”I can hold off the bleeding until the physician gets here,” Rin said suddenly.

Everyone within the tent stared at Rin with shocked filled expressions.

Manchu was slightly taken aback, ”You know medicine?”

”A little,” Rin replied lightly before walking toward An Sun's side.

Not shifting her eyes off the injured man, Rin ordered for hot water and a towel to be brought in. Once the items were delivered, Rin didn't hesitate to tend to An Sun.

Stretching her hands out to remove his clothes, she was stopped by a fierce and firm grip. Glancing up calmly and with slight annoyance, Rin's eyes met with Manchu's cool blue ones.

”Only a little?” The space between Manchu's brows was tightly furrowed as he spat coldly, ”Do you think I'll allow you to endanger his life based on such words?”

Rin frowned but made no move to resist his grip, instead she stared into his eyes head-on.
