“Zhao Zhan.”

Yue Jiaojiao had woken up earlier today and was counting Zhao Zhan’s eyelashes seriously. In the end, she slipped when she got closer.

Zhao Zhan instinctively treated himself as a human cushion.

As their bodies came into contact, Yue Jiaojiao felt a sharp pain from the blow. Before she could even open her mouth, she saw Zhao Zhan’s pained expression.

After all, she was attuned to other people’s emotions, so she was very clear about which part of Zhao Zhan’s body she had touched that made him so uncomfortable. Yue Jiaojiao couldn’t help but worry. “Did I hurt you? Do you need to see a doctor?”

Zhao Zhan grunted and stubbornly said, “I’m fine. I don’t need to see a doctor.”

As he spoke, he gently sat up with his lover in his arms. He tried his best to ignore the pain in his body and asked, “Jiaojiao, are you in pain? Let me carry you to the bed first.” Zhao Zhan gritted his teeth and placed his lover on the bed. He bent over and wrapped the blanket around her. There was a thin layer of sweat on his forehead. “It’s a little cold in the morning. Don’t move. It’ll warm your clothes up before you put them on. When you’re done washing up, we’ll go to the jewelry shop to see if we can get some more information about the silver hairpin.”

Yue Jiaojiao nodded obediently.

She knew how a man’s self-esteem worked and knew that he wouldn’t make a sound even if he was in pain.

However, with that amount of sweat dripping, Yue Jiaojiao could imagine how much pain he was in. After all, Zhao Zhan’s waist and abdomen had been injured the last time, and his reaction wasn’t even as severe as this time.

When the two of them left the house together, Yue Jiaojiao couldn’t help but secretly glance at his lower body.

Feeling her gaze, Zhao Zhan stopped in his tracks

Jiaojiao, “Zhao Zhan suddenly said as he held onto Yue Jiaojiao’s hand, “Stop looking. I’m really fine.”

“I know, I’m just taking a look.” Yue Jiaojiao held back the smile on her face and didn’t laugh out loud.

The two of them went straight to the jewelry store.

Seeing the two of them holding hands, the waiter hurriedly greeted them with a smile. “Welcome, how may I help you today? Our store has just sent over a few new pieces of jewelry from the capital.”

“New things? Let’s look at those first.”

“Right this way.” The waiter enthusiastically led the two to the innermost cabinet, then carefully took out a beautiful wooden box. “Based on your status, I know that those items outside would not be worthy of your status. Take a look at this instead.”

In the wooden box was a whole set of jade hairpins, but the quality didn’t look very good. It looked like the noble people in the capital didn’t like it, so it made its way to Wangshan Town.

“Madam, if you like it, you can try it on carefully. If you were the one wearing them, you wouldn’t be overshadowed by the jewelry.”

Yue Jiaojiao chuckled as she shook her head and closed the wooden box. She then casually handed the silver hairpin to the shop assistant, “This has become my favorite hairpin in recent years. It’s a pity that I don’t know where this hairpin is made from. Why don’t you help me take a look? If your shop has more of this, you can bring them over and let me choose the one best suited for me.”

“This hairpin of yours…” the shop assistant held it in his hand and kept changing its angle to look at it. Then he bent down and said, “Please forgive my poor eyesight. If you’re not in a hurry, I would like to ask my manager to take a look at it. My manager went to the capital, so he might be able to recognize it better.”

“You go ahead, we’ll wait here.”

After watching the shop assistant go upstairs, Zhao Zhan moved closer to Yue Jiaojiao’s side. His lips were pursed into a straight line, and his face was visibly nervous.
