nLin An wore a dark mask on his face. The child was startled at first, but he was very surprised when he heard what he said. He bowed and thanked him again and again, and directly gave the whole basket to Lin An.

nThe child guessed the reason for Lin An’s actions, and thanked him sincerely, “Sir, you are such a good person.”

nLin An moved the corners of his lips mockingly, and returned to the tree with the flower basket and handed it to Xi Ning.

nThe child had already left. Xi Ning sat down again with the flower basket and touched the wilting petals.

nHe has the fire of life in his body, which should also bring these flowers back to life. Xi Ning tried to mobilize the spiritual energy in his body, some soft green light radiated from his fingertips and slowly merged into the flowers in the basket.

nThe originally tilted stems were straightened, and the petals became gorgeous and full again, completely different from their previous appearance.

nThis is the first time Xi Ning has used the Fire of Life and it went so smoothly. He held the flower basket, showed it to Lin An and said excitedly, “Look, they all come back to life.”

nLin An curled his lips and smiled, realizing that Xi Ning couldn’t see his face, he replied, “Yes they do.”

nXi Ning checked every flower and confirmed that nothing was amiss, and handed it to a guard passing by, “Divide and gift it to others.”

nIt was useless for him to keep so many flowers. The guard took the flower basket and replied, “Yes, Your Highness.”

nWhen Xi Ning used the fire of life, Lin An’s attention was on the fresh flowers. After the guard took the flower basket, he stared at the guard’s back for a while, then turned his head to Xi Ning, who was dozing off again and said, “Your Highness, I need to leave for a moment.”

nXi Ning didn’t think much, closed his eyes and listened to the sound of his footsteps leaving. Lin An came back not long after.

nAfter the rest, the convoy set off again. In the afternoon, Xi Ning sat at the window and looked out at the scenery outside. Lin An pushed the door and came in, holding a small flower pot that he got from somewhere. Inside was a pastel red flower.

nXi Ning looked at the familiar flower and asked, “This is……”

n“I went to ask for one of those flowers that Your Highness rescued at noon,” his expression and tone remained unchanged when he lied, “How about putting it on the table?”

nThe whole basket of flowers was now in his storage bag, all of which were sealed. When Xi Ning used the fire of life, these flowers also grew new roots. He picked the most beautiful one and wanted to put it at a place that was easily seen.

nThe flowerpot had the simplest earth-colored ceramic. Even though it seems very simple, it’s not ugly at all. Xi Ning took it and placed it in the middle of the table. He touched the petals with his fingertips, and the whole flower seemed to be in a better state than before.

nXi Ning’s pupils darkened and smiled, “It’s very happy.”

nLin An stared at Xi Ning’s fingers for a while, and thought if Xi Ning put his hand on his face, could he also feel his emotions?

nXi Ning quickly withdrew his hand and leaned against the window again.

nLast time they stayed at the hotel for a long time because the dwarf was unwell, and it took a lot of time to make a detour. The mercenary group commander suggested to His Majesty Ferro to increase their speed at night to arrive at the destination as early as possible.

nThe mercenary group commander can ensure that the manpower is arranged accordingly during the trip, but it is probably not so comfortable for people like Ferro and Xi Ning who have to rest at night.

nFerro talked to Xi Ning about this matter. Xi Ning had no objection. After all, saving people is the most important thing. Arriving there early and returning early is also good for everyone.

nSo the convoy adjusted its schedule, and started to increase their speed at night, only stopping for two hours in the middle of the night.

nNo matter how comfortable the carriage is, there will inevitably be bumps and turbulence when driving on the road, which Xi Ning could barely endure at first.

nBut as the day progressed, Xi Ning couldn’t sleep well. During the day, he was only able to sleep for a while after lunch, and the rest of the time he couldn’t sleep peacefully in his carriage.

nHe felt that it was probably because of his current body. Forest elves never went out. When they were away from the woods, their bodies were weaker than ordinary people, and their own spiritual energy could not help much.

nAnd when he woke up at night, he was the only one in the carriage, and he didn’t want to disturb Lin An at night. The influence of the illness kept coming, and Xi Ning was in a worse mood.

nIn the middle of the night, the wheels of the carriage slid through a small dirt pit, the carriage rattled a bit, and Xi Ning woke up again.

nHe tried to close his eyes again, but he still couldn’t fall asleep. He felt sleepy, irritable and grievances, Xi Ning could only blame himself for being easily awake in sleep, and he couldn’t bear what others could bear.

nXi Ning tossed and turned for a while, he couldn’t help and sat up, and tried to call, “Lin An?”

nLin An and the two servants took turns to watch the night. It was his turn tonight, so he rested outside by the door. Hearing Xi Ning’s call, he opened his eyes immediately, pushed open the compartment door and walked in.

nThere were no lights in the carriage, Xi Ning was sitting beside the bed, seeing a familiar figure in the dark, he felt a little better.

n“Your Highness?” Lin An half-knelt in front of Xi Ning and said softly, “What’s the matter, can’t sleep?”

nHe has a keen hearing and knows that Xi Ning often wakes up every night recently, probably because they start to increase their travel speed at night.

nXi Ning replied “Yeah”, lay down on the side of the bed, and pulled Lin An’s sleeve, “Did I wake you up? Can you stay here with me…… If you’re sleepy, you can just sleep here……”

nSleep here? There was only one bed in front of him. Lin An was silent and didn’t answer. Xi Ning didn’t know what his reaction was and thought he was refusing.
