"The Amorous Affairs of a Female Official" - Chapter 325: Little Moments of Interaction

The night was cool and still.
Shangguan Rongqin walked out of a house in Mingsu Lane, with Lin Suyuan, dressed in official robes, attending him.
“Your performance evaluation is good,” Shangguan Rongqin said as they walked, “but you should continue to stay in the Censorate.”
Lin Suyuan lowered her head, her expression obscured by the moonlight. "This humble official understands."
"Add more people here and keep a close eye on her." Shangguan Rongqin's voice remained as gentle as a spring breeze.
“I know,” she nodded, “I won’t let her cause any trouble.”
As the two were talking, a shrill scream suddenly came from the inner courtyard, sending chills down one's spine in the dark night.
Shangguan Rongqin's expression changed. "Go in and keep an eye on her."
Lin Suyuan glanced quickly at his handsome profile. "It's windy at night, sir. Please wear an extra layer of clothing." With that, she handed him the outer robe she had been clutching in her hand and then headed towards the inner courtyard.
Han Jinqing's leg injury was not serious. Although it was said to be a bone setting, Song Dingkun actually only corrected the leg bone.
After his fever subsided, he became more lucid, but after lying in bed for three days, he grew somewhat impatient.
Gu Qingyin brought in freshly brewed tea from outside, poured a cup of tea and placed it on the table, then turned to get a towel that had been dried on the shelf.
Her original court robes were torn by tree branches when she fell, so she had to change them and wear ordinary women's clothes.
Her coarse linen clothes, which accentuated her delicate features and slender figure, gave her a unique charm.
She walked to the bedside and was about to wipe his face as before when she saw him suddenly open his eyes.
These past few days, he has mostly been asleep, only occasionally asking for water in his drowsy state. She has rarely been in direct contact with him.
Although she was worried, she was also somewhat relieved that she didn't have to face him immediately, because she really didn't know how to get along with him in this situation.
His eyes were as clear and bright as black jade, so deep they seemed to draw you in. Her heart tightened, her hand paused, and she whispered, "You're awake?"
Han Jinqing looked at her, and the two remained silent for a long time.
"Are you going to wipe my face?" He glanced at the handkerchief in her hand and asked casually.
His voice has always been deep, with a hint of languor in its lightness. Perhaps due to his injury, that languor is now mixed with a touch of hoarseness and magnetism.
Gu Qingyin was taken aback, unsure whether to wipe her hand with the handkerchief or not.
"Uh, the handkerchief is a bit cold. I'll go get a basin of hot water again." She said to herself, and then hurriedly went out.
As she stepped out of the room, she ran into Madam Song. "Miss Gu, is there anything else you need in the room?"
Seeing her carrying a basin of water, Madam Song said warmly, "Are you changing the water? Just give me the basin. You can go inside and wait. The patient can't be left without someone by his side."
Gu Qingyin froze for a moment, then said, "No need, Madam Song, I'll go by myself."
"Don't stand on ceremony with this old woman, come in. Don't keep your husband waiting." Madam Song said as she pushed her into the room.
"No, we, no!" Madam Song was strong, and she was quickly pushed into the room, where the door slammed shut in front of her.
She turned around and met his eyes, which seemed to be smiling but weren't.
Han Jinqing sat up halfway, leaning against the headboard. Her face still looked sickly, but her complexion had improved significantly compared to the previous two days.
Gu Qingyin's face flushed slightly, and she felt a little flustered, but then she heard him say, "I'm thirsty."
Not knowing what to say to him, she immediately picked up the tea that had just been poured from the table and handed it to him.
He reached out to take it, and she, with her head bowed, saw the layers of gauze wrapped around his left hand. Her hand trembled, and some tea spilled out, dripping onto the cup.
"I," she hurriedly pulled out her handkerchief and awkwardly wiped the quilt, "I, I'm sorry."
"What's there to apologize for? I've always felt this quilt had a smell, so I'll just have them take it to wash," Han Jinqing said casually, raising an eyebrow.
Gu Qingyin felt guilty towards him for risking his life to save her, but upon hearing this, she widened her eyes and said, "You, we can't trouble him like this. You said the blanket smells, which is probably the smell of the herbs you applied to your body. Even if you change the blanket, it will still be there."
Han Jinqing narrowed his eyes as he looked at her serious, lecturing expression. "So, according to you, I'll have to sleep under this smelly blanket for the next few days?"
