Xia Xinyan seized the opportunity to send him away. After much effort, she managed to get him into the car and drove to the archaeological site from last time. He was a monster; surely no wild beast would dare approach him. With that thought, she felt justified in leaving him in the grass beside the tomb.
For an entire week, Xia Xinyan hadn’t seen Lu Muqing. She had grown fond of the tranquility at home, but every time she opened the shoe cabinet to grab her shoes, she couldn’t help but think of Lu Muqing. He should be able to find that true princess by now.
Everything felt like a dream.
The phenomenon of empty coffins in archaeology, aside from the false tombs created by Cao Cao, was something she had never encountered before. Her mentor urged Xia Xinyan to continue her investigation and unravel the historical mystery.
To this end, she reviewed a vast amount of literature but found no records regarding Lu Muqing and that princess. She regretted sending Lu Muqing away so hastily.
Consequently, she spent three whole days in the research lab. The Bronze Vessels were common burial items from this era, and there was nothing particularly special about them. With no other options left, she decided to return to the site.
Xia Xinyan parked her car on the wide road and walked down with a small backpack. The gravel underfoot was treacherous, and in her haste, she stumbled and fell.
She rolled down the small hillside and managed to grab onto a patch of weeds to stop herself. Her knee was scraped badly by the sharp stones, blood oozing out rapidly. If this continued, she feared she might bleed to death. Xia Xinyan quickly dialed for help, but there was no signal in this remote area.
The sun sank slowly in the west, and the grass at her feet was already soaked with blood.
After a while, Xia Xinyan heard footsteps approaching and instantly woke up, shouting with all her might, “Help!”
The footsteps halted, and Xia Xinyan saw a pair of dark boots. Looking up, she recognized the familiar hem of a skirt; the setting sun cast a golden hue around him, making him look stunning. He stood just a step away from her, motionless for a moment, his eyes clear yet profound as if lost in thought.
Xia Xinyan called out obediently, “Lu Muqing!”
He finally approached and knelt down. "Please forgive me, Your Highness."
Xia Xinyan was counting on him to save her and hurriedly apologized, "It was my fault last time. From now on, you can stay at my home as long as you want..."
Before she could finish her sentence, she felt a sudden lightness in her body, and she heard him let out a soft sigh.
Due to excessive blood loss, Xia Xinyan felt a bit dizzy. Lu Muqing wanted to treat her wound the same way he had before, but she quickly stopped him. "Just use some cloth to bandage it; there's a hospital up ahead."
He nodded and tore a piece from his clothing to make a simple bandage. While tending to her wound, Lu Muqing was particularly careful, afraid of causing her pain. It was her first time being treated so gently after sustaining minor injuries during archaeological work in the field.
A breeze swept through the car window, causing his clothes to flutter. Xia Xinyan gazed at his handsome features, her heart racing wildly.
While receiving a blood transfusion at the hospital, Xia Xinyan learned that he was able to heal her wound because he had tapped into Essence and Soul's power. Initially, this amount of Essence and Soul was insignificant, but he had used quite a bit while fishing earlier, so he had exceeded his limit that day.
