The General's Darling Is Delicate-Chapter 125 - 107: Isn’t This Just Torment?

"Then should I say, thank you, boyfriend?"

Yun Chunnuan smirked, clearly sensing the change in him, yet still lightly sucked at his Adam’s apple.

As his whole body shivered violently, she quickly scurried away from him, rolling onto the bed and covering herself with a little blanket.

Yelyu Lie sat on the ground, sighing in speechless resignation.

"You’re crazy. Someday I won’t be able to resist and I’ll just eat you up!"

That little face peeking out from under the blanket giggled, "No, you won’t~ My baby treasures me the most! You promised me, you’d never go back on your word!"

Yelyu Lie: "!"

He wanted to object!

He would go back on his word! He definitely would! If she kept acting this way, someday he really wouldn’t be able to hold back!

But...she called him "baby"...

"You!" Yelyu Lie stood up, as if that little fall meant nothing to him, moving unaffected by it in the slightest.

Getting onto the bed, he pinched the tip of her nose gently, "You just think I can’t do anything about you."

"Exactly!" she replied confidently, "You’re the one spoiling me, so you’ll have to deal with it."

Yelyu Lie: "..."

It was his first time seeing a woman flaunt her willfulness and stubbornness so confidently.

Yet, somehow, he didn’t find it annoying—instead, it was incredibly endearing.

Yelyu Lie lifted the blanket and lay down beside her.

He turned his face to look at her, "Can I hold you?"

She shook her head, "Turn around, I want to hug you to sleep, like a big...big bear, it’s so comfortable!"

Yun Chunnuan wasn’t lying to him. The Barbarian General was strong and warm, just like a heating pad in winter.

Ahem...

Although, what she originally meant to compare to was a big golden retriever.

Yelyu Lie could never resist his little wifey’s coquettishness. As soon as she whimpered in that sweet, soft voice of hers, he helplessly turned over, letting her hug him from behind.

But his heart was racing too fast. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Yelyu Lie regretted now, constantly demanding earlier that he wanted to get on the bed and sleep cuddling her.

To him, it wasn’t any kind of privilege, just pure torture!

Especially since his little wifey seemed to get endless delight in tormenting him this way...

The more he wanted to flee, the closer she wanted to be.

"Nuannuan, sing a song." He had to divert his attention.

"Okay, I’ll sing you to sleep, so fall asleep quickly, okay?"

Yun Chunnuan wasn’t pretentious either, singing a song she had previously sung to him in the bathroom, "Nuannuan," and then "Lullaby."

Just when she thought she’d have to coax him for a while longer before he fell asleep...

His rigid body began to relax.

Even breathing soon followed...

"Yelyu Lie?" she whispered softly.

"Mm?" he responded subconsciously, though he was already in dreamland.

Yun Chunnuan dared not speak again, softly humming the lullaby, gently patting his back as if lulling a baby.

Soon, the sound of snoring followed.

During the days she was unconscious, he had indeed exhausted himself too much.

Even on the battlefield, he didn’t have ten days where he slept only a few hours.

Because he didn’t dare to sleep, afraid that if he dozed off carelessly, when he woke up, she’d be gone again.

He wanted to keep a close watch on her...

This vigilance lasted for ten days.

During these ten days, he probably only slept five or six hours in total.

Yun Chunnuan didn’t know any of this.

She just held her stiffened body, waiting until his snoring steadied, only then slowly retracting from his tightly clinging back.

The Blood Beads were no longer in the money pouch.

They were now placed in the Storage Ring.

Her soon-to-be mother-in-law had taught her how to use the Storage Ring, and Yun Chunnuan tried it just now when the Barbarian General went to bathe, successfully on her first try.

She retrieved the three Blood Beads she had collected before, crushed one, and smeared it over the longest and most obvious scar on his back from beginning to end.

One wasn’t enough, Yun Chunnuan crushed the other two.

Blood spilled accidentally on her hands and the blanket.

But Yun Chunnuan’s full attention was on the scar, not noticing where the blood had dripped.

After applying all the Blood Beads, she quietly waited for the scar to change.

Sure enough, she wasn’t wrong.

In the bathroom, the bathwater had been tainted with the Blood Beads, and his scars had indeed been healing!

Now, with all the Blood Beads applied to the wound...

The blood seemed to have a life of its own, seeping in through the scar’s lines bit by bit once applied.

Right under Yun Chunnuan’s watchful eyes, the scar miraculously smoothened gradually.

Only a faint, light trace remained on his back...
