The two men cursed each other for some time while Nan Hua watched from the side. She silently wondered how long it would actually take for the two of them to bicker in their previous world.

But this was really nice for them.

Even when they were in this world, they still have acquaintance from their previous world whom they could talk with freely without the need to care about the social status and others.

While she was alone.

Nan Hua's eyes flickered slightly.

No, she's no longer alone.

There were many people in this world who cared for her and she cared for them too. It was also because she had these people that she didn't mind working hard on the frontline.

She would also spare her time from time to time to be able to stay with them.

Even if they were doing nothing but chatting some silly things, it was really fun and fulfilling.

Finally, the quarrel between Long Qian Xing and Fang Sheng Lin was finished.

*Sigh*

"Anyway, I can't bring you to the frontline for the time being. Who knows when that damn Prime Minister will suddenly give an order to you." Long Qian Xing snorted.

"I'll be obedient." Fang Sheng Lin grinned.

Long Qian Xing rolled his eyes. "Is there anything he had to do, Hua'er?"

"Recuperate." Nan Hua blinked her eyes. "The gu had caused his body to be quite deficient. Even though he looked like he's strong, he's currently lacking in blood and had to recuperate for at least several months to make up for the loss of the vitality."

"Several months?" Fang Sheng Lin was stunned.

"Yes. Removing the gu will also make you a bit weak for quite a while." Nan Hua thought for a moment. "I can also give you some medicine to help with this deficiency, but the taste might not be so pleasant."

Fang Sheng Lin's face turned black.

The early days of his transmigration had been filled with him having to scavenge for food. Those foods were definitely not for humans.

But because he only wanted to survive back then, he didn't care.

Thankfully, his food condition gradually improved. He no longer had to eat those strange things anymore.

Not to mention, he had been as healthy as a bull.

He didn't have to drink these… dark medicine.

Now that Nan Hua mentioned it, Fang Sheng Lin really wanted to walk away and made sure that she was not going to prepare anything for him. He didn't like to eat those disgusting medicine.

"Alright, give him several portion of medicine," Long Qian Xing made the decision.

"You b*stard! I'm not going to drink the medicine!"

"Listen to your father."

"You #$<%^&*(.>)"

After the two cursed each other again, Fang Sheng Lin was finally defeated. The chains that chained him to the bed was released, but he couldn't really defeat Long Qian Xing in this condition. The operation just now somehow made him feel weak.

He could only watch as Nan Hua handed him the bowl with black liquid and forced himself to drink it all.

His face contorted but with Long Qian Xing watching, he could only drink it.

"Blegh, it's really bad…."

"You can recover soon with this." Long Qian Xing patted Fang Sheng Lin's shoulder. "I'll send you to other cities where you will stay. As long as you don't see Prime Minister Lei, they shouldn't be able to control you."

"Huh, I know."

Nan Hua looked at Fang Sheng Lin and added, "When Prime Minister Lei passed away, I'll check on you again to make sure it's undone."

Once the object of loyalty is gone, the 'knot' should be untied. At that time, she would be able to see it from Fang Sheng Lin when she checked him again. After all, among the few people who had interacted with Chen Yuan, Nan Hua was the person who knew this method the best.

"Ok, Princess…"

Long Qian Xing beckoned for Nan Hua to follow him and instructed the guard to watch Fang Sheng Lin. At the same time, he also informed that he would be under 'house arrest' for the time being.

Walking out of the tent, Long Qian Xing watched his little fiancée carefully. Nan Hua's emotion when she had finished taking out the gu was a bit wrong, but he didn't mention it outright.

For some reason, he had the feeling that Nan Hua didn't want to be seen by outsiders.

Thus, he only patted her head and then bickered with Fang Sheng Lin. Anyway, having seen such an idiotic scene, she should cheer up a bit.

"Hua'er, are you alright?" Long Qian Xing asked, his tone was a bit low.

Nan Hua returned Long Qian Xing's gaze and nodded quietly. "I was nervous."

Nervous and feared of the worse possibility to happen. Thankfully, everything was going smoothly without any complication whatsoever.

Long Qian Xing smiled reassuringly. "I trust you and will not blame you whatever happened."

"That's…"

"Doctors are also humans. They can make mistake." Long Qian Xing chuckled. "You're not expecting yourself to be a perfect person, are you?"

Perfect?

From the very beginning, Nan Hua had known that she was not perfect. She had many things she lacked.

Thus, she knew that it would be impossible for her to become perfect.

She just wished that she would not disappoint Long Qian Xing and not make him lose his best friend.

Thankfully, she succeeded.

Long Qian Xing watched Nan Hua carefully and pulled the young girl to his embrace. She felt so soft and small, yet under this delicate appearance was the tough and powerful woman who could command army no less than him.

He patted her back carefully.

"You're good, Hua'er. Don't look down on yourself. You're really good and I like you very much," Long Qian Xing whispered softly, holding Nan Hua carefully in his arms.

Nan Hua didn't respond and only buried her head in Long Qian Xing's embrace.

He smiled faintly. "You're not perfect as a person, but for me, you're perfect."
