So, after rushing for seven or eight days, they stopped outside a grove.
Riding for a long time was exhausting; each time they stopped for a break, Su Yan felt like her bones were about to fall apart.
And the first thing she did every time she dismounted was either sit or lie down.
Of course, as soon as she dismounted, she immediately lay down on the grass and refused to get up.
Chu Yuxiao tied up Zhui Feng and sat down beside her.
Seeing her exhausted expression, he felt both heartache and helplessness.
He reached out to massage her thighs and said,
"Hold on a bit longer, tomorrow we will reach the next city. When we get there, we can rest well for a couple of days before moving on."
Su Yan, turning her head to look at him under the sunset glow, saw that Chu Yuxiao's expression was very gentle.
She smiled and said, "It's okay, I'm just a bit tired, but I can keep going. Don't rest an extra day just for my sake."
