Xiao Qian's arms were strong enough to carry her with one arm.

However, he didn't do so. Instead, he patiently held her by her arms and pulled her up.

”Wild animals frequently come and go in the mountains. When you leave the camp in the future, you need to let me know. If I had come a little later today, your life would have ended here.”

Before Su Zhi could recover from her fear, she grabbed his arm with both hands. She could not refute his words, so she could only nod and agree.

Xiao Qian wanted to scold her, but seeing that she looked pitiful and frightened, he swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue.

Thinking about it, even if it was for the sake of her child, she wouldn't care about it anymore.

As a woman, she was always more particular than a rough man. It was indeed inappropriate for her to bathe in the army camp.

Xiao Qian thought back and forth, but Xiao Qian still felt that it was inconvenient for the delicate and pretty woman to stay in the army.

Both of them had their own thoughts as they descended the mountain in the dark. When they were almost to the campsite, Xiao Gan released Su Zhi and let her go back by herself. He watched from a distance.

Not far ahead was the Great Wei Army camp's line of sight control. Even a fly would find it hard to fly inside.

Su Zhi understood that Xiao Qian was doing this because of their reputations, so she didn't ask any questions and headed back.

When she met the soldier guarding the gate, he asked her where Xiao Qian had gone, but she didn't know.

On this side, the little bun hadn't been able to find his mother and had been crying for quite some time.

A Jin endured the worry and coaxed her sister to sleep, only then did she finally see her mother who had returned late. Seeing that she was safe, she let out a long breath.

Su Zhi said, ”Sorry, Mother has something to worry about outside.”

She apologized to the child and did not mention the matter of the back mountain. Lying on the bed, she was still fearful and her entire body was trembling.

All night long, the nightmare was the scene of a wild beast constantly fleeing for its life.

The night wind quickly blew away the excess moisture. Before Xiao Qian could return to the camp, the wet spots on his body had dried up, leaving only a few shallow water stains.

However, what he did not understand was that his body was emitting a mixture of the fragrance of flowers and fruits. It was different from the fragrance of a normal woman, this smell was purer and better.

He lowered his head to take a sniff at the few marks on his body and realized that Su Zhi was the one who had caused this disaster.

Xiao Qian was quite surprised, how could this woman be so fragrant? He wondered what she ate.

He took off his outer garment and placed it in the frame, waiting for the personal attendant to take up the starter to wash it tomorrow.
