After getting on the carriage, Liu Xiaoxiao sat on the right side, wearing a pink Red Robe and a pair of red shoes, looking delicate and graceful, her body also slender.
She was draped in a long red cloak outside, appearing noble and dignified, yet she couldn't help but lower her head, perhaps feeling a bit shy, as it was her own body that had been seen.
Qin Feng sat on the left side and noticed that the originally gentle Liu Xiaoxiao now seemed somewhat shy, likely due to that incident.
Her fair Oval Face showed many blushes, and she dared not look directly at him. This woman was truly interesting.
In ancient times, women placed great importance on their chastity, which meant their bodies; they generally wouldn't even expose their arms. They had to wait until they shared a bed with their Husband to reveal their graceful figures.
Thus, ancient women were the best; they were absolutely virtuous, unlike the casualness of today, where not only are clothes revealing, but behaviors are also open and reckless.
Although she had mentioned becoming a concubine to him, he did not agree and she seemed to have given up. Now that her body had been seen, he didn't know what to do.
They were in a remote area with a bumpy mountain road leading to Henan Prefecture, specifically Luoyang.
This was the closest official road to there, but it required quite a bit of travel. Moreover, due to continuous peasant uprisings in recent years, the road had worsened; there was neither money nor manpower for repairs.
Naturally, the carriage felt very bumpy. After sitting for a while, he felt himself swaying left and right, his body constantly bumping against the carriage, which was quite painful.
It felt as if his bones were being slowly pulled apart; that sensation was truly uncomfortable.
Qin Feng also felt somewhat bored! As someone who had traveled from the future, there were so many fun things in that world.
When he used to take trains or cars, he would play games or watch something during the ride; now he could only daydream.
He kept looking at the beautiful Liu Xiaoxiao across from him, but she always seemed a bit shy. He could only find ways to chat with her to relieve his boredom.
Seeing her in her undergarment was indeed somewhat sexy and captivating, exuding an aura of gentle femininity.
She didn't pay much attention to it; it was just that her continuous embarrassment made her feel awkward as well, so there was no conversation.
In the future, women dressed even more revealingly and sexily, with extremely short skirts, shorts, and exposing bikinis that were truly captivating.
That was a kind of exposed beauty, while she possessed a beauty that was revealing yet not vulgar, a kind of subtle beauty.
Liu Xiaoxiao sat there; although she had a slender figure and was light in weight, she was still just a delicate girl who swayed back and forth, unable to sit steadily, appearing somewhat awkward.
Qin Feng said, "We still have a long way to go; why don't you keep me company with some conversation? Your family is in medicine, so you must know a lot about medical skills, right? You should recognize those herbs!"
She nodded, still blushing slightly, stammering as she said, "My family is in medicine; we have all kinds of herbs at home and a pretty large pharmacy! Of course, having grown up there, I know quite a bit about herbs."
However, tears began to flow down her cheeks, seemingly very sad.
Qin Feng was somewhat confused about what was wrong with her. He asked, "Xiao Xiao, what's wrong? Is it still because of that incident? I really didn't mean to; I didn't see anything."
A hint of a smile suddenly appeared on her face but quickly faded away as she continued to look sorrowful, tears still streaming down.
She used the red handkerchief on her body to wipe her tears and looked much better.
"It’s not because of this morning's incident; that was my oversight for not covering the blanket properly. Actually, my parents died unexpectedly due to a strange plague they caught. Even my younger brother was affected. I suddenly thought of them and felt very sad."
"My brother was also a great help to my parents; he managed the pharmacy. I couldn't handle it alone after they passed away, so I sold the pharmacy. I carried all those silver prescriptions with me to find my fiancé and complete our marriage so that I could stay in the north."
After hearing this, Qin Feng felt both sympathy and concern. If three people had died from such a strange disease, would she also be infected and pass it on to him?
She looked perfectly normal; if she had contracted that kind of illness, she should have fallen ill quickly and died. How could she possibly travel such a long distance?
But there was still one question: "Xiao Xiao, what is the situation with your family? How did it suddenly happen like that?"
She replied, "Well, at noon, I happened to be playing in Tokyo City and didn't go home for lunch. When I returned in the afternoon, I saw their faces were pale, but their arms had turned white. It was quite unexpected; this was exactly the situation of the Plague."
"In the morning, I was supposed to go to a place in the North to see how the people there looked; they also had pale faces. I didn't expect that something would happen by noon, and just like that, they passed away. I ended up all alone."
Tears streamed down her face as she kept wiping them away. The pain of losing loved ones can only be deeply understood by those who experience it.
He listened carefully and felt that this didn't seem like the Plague! It sounded more like someone had poisoned them. Could it be that this situation resembled the current Plague so closely that someone used poison to disguise it and harmed her family?
If it truly were the Plague, then not just three or five people would die; news would have spread throughout the capital by now. Someone must have poisoned them, and she hadn't realized it; she just assumed they died from illness.
Seeing her so distressed now, he decided not to pursue this matter any further. He would investigate thoroughly when he had the chance to return to Tokyo.
The road ahead was getting worse, increasingly bumpy and uneven. Her frail body swayed back and forth in the carriage, feeling as if she were a piece of paper—so powerless.
Suddenly, the road on the right rose several centimeters high. The entire carriage tilted up, causing her to lose her balance and fly to the left, landing against Qin Feng's body. Her soft lips accidentally brushed against his.
It was fragrant and soft! Her round form pressed against him felt incredibly gentle; this sensation was truly marvelous.
Out of fear, her delicate arms tightly wrapped around him, unwilling to let go.
Qin Feng savored the softness of her body and the fragrance of her soft lips; it felt so comfortable that he couldn't bear to push her away.
After a minute, she sensed that the road had leveled out and moved her body away, still entranced by Qin Feng's strong physique.
She wanted to return to her original position but felt a bit worried, causing her face to wrinkle slightly.
Qin Feng, after the recent physical contact, felt a budding affection for her. He took her fair hand and placed her beside him.
"Don't sit too far away! Just sit next to me; I can protect you."
She then sat on his right side. Qin Feng's hand had already loosened, but she still held on tightly, unwilling to let go, feeling the strength in his grip.
After sitting for a while, she felt extremely fatigued and couldn't maintain her balance. Her soft body leaned against his side, providing a sense of stability that felt comforting.
Her long, soft black hair fell onto Qin Feng's body, exuding a gentle fragrance reminiscent of his girlfriend, Lin Yue.
He realized he had truly developed feelings for her. This older sister figure possessed the gentle charm of Classical Beauty and a certain fragility that intensified his desire to protect her.
Men rarely refuse beautiful women who take the initiative to get close, and he certainly wouldn't either. The bond between them was evident; it was just that there hadn't been any further physical contact.
Suddenly, he felt an urge to pull her into his embrace. He released her soft hand and leaned closer to her body, wrapping his right arm around her slender waist.
He held her tightly, feeling the warmth and comfort of their closeness as their faces and bodies pressed together.
