I am a Second Female Lead

Chapter 61: 6. Shi Jing (Nuan)

After 3 typical days of galloping, they voluntarily stop in the middle of the lush forest. They instantly set

up their tent. While everybody is trying to obtain a good place to set up their own tent. Sheri's tent was

set up so quick.

With her military knowledge, she sought someone to make a tent for her. It's somewhat a modern type

of tent that can easily fold and unfolded. Everybody was surprised.

The whole military tent was typically designed by the female lead. At first, they were all glad. It

conveniently carries out their works easy and their journey more relaxed, but carefully looking at the

tent of Sheri they felt their tent is lacking something.

Sheri instantly recognizes everything that the female lead introduces in this era. Fortunately, the female

lead didn't find any substance to create a gun powder or a bomb. Sheri was more of a low key while

the female lead is a well-known genius in all diverse fields. She was considered a heaven-sent

because of her contribution toward the medical field, in developing a sword and providing a military

technique, etc. Making her the most significant princess in the whole land. Sheri was merely observing

on the side.

The female ways are basic knowledge for Sheri. It's indeed simple and yet effective but luckily Sheri

doesn't have any grand ambition so low key is fine for her.

When Sheri finishes setting up her own tent. She went and carries her hand made bags toward the

deep forest. She holds in her hand a hand-made compass to know where she is. Sheri said to Ru shan

she will go and hunt. The prince was reluctant at first, but he later enables her.

Sheri was satisfied that the crown prince listened to her innovative idea of drawing an official map in

every corner of the borders.Content © NôvelDrama.Org.

She has a map in hand and was satisfied. Somewhere along the road, they have a local spring

according to the map.

Sheri hunted a wild boar not too small and not too big. At least she can haul it. She carries it toward

their camp together with some of the herbs she got and immediately cleanses them and makes a soup

out of it.

"Jing, I never knew you can cook so well. Where did you learn it?" stated Ru Shan. For Ru Shan this is

the first time that he taste her food.

Sheri smile. "Books," Sheri lied.

The soldiers compliment Sheri. Sheri stayed inside her tent until in the middle of the night while

everyone sleeps comfortably. She sneaks from their camp and walks toward the spring. In the middle

of the road, the trees start to move a little. Sheri was unsettled because there's no wind. Suddenly a

figure appears in her front. She was already ready and almost wanting to punch whoever it is when

suddenly he speaks.

" Jing, it's me. Don't hurt my handsome face again," he said.

Sheri's hand stops on the midair.

"Your highness? What the... How.... " Sheri was genuinely shocked.

Sheri looked keenly at him. He grows impressively into a very handsome and matured man. She is

glad he is her best friend. Four years they never see each other but they inevitably make sure to write

toward each other. Sometimes she receives 10 letters in a month. Informing her everything his doing at

the same time Sheri carefully analyzes every word he said because it was encrypted. Sheri teaches

Lou Xi how to do an encrypted word.

" hahaha your just the same. Almost 4 years we didn't see each other Jing."

Lou Xi said.

"Your highness, indeed. How did you know we were here?"Sheri asked.

"I've heard from your father." Lou Xi said.

"I know you heard we are coming but how did you know precisely where I am? Sheri asked.

"Oh that, I followed your smell," Lou Xi said.

"Huh," said Sheri and smell her sleeves.

"I can't smell anything," Sheri said.

"Let me show you." Lou xi said and draw close toward her nape and sniff it there.

Sheri stiffened. She's wondering if the crown prince is gay or a dog.

Suddenly an intimate tap on her forehead.

"Stop imagining unnecessary thought," Lou Xi said.

Sheri looked at him. "How did he know what she was thinking? Sheri thought.

"You're going toward the spring right?" Lou Xi said.

"Again," Sheri thought.

Lou Xi tap again her forehead gently.

"Jing I know you since we were still young. You want always to bath in the middle of the night.

Sometimes I wonder why. I respect what you want maybe you have something you don't want to show

toward me. Your sworn brother. " Lou xi said.

Sheri smile. He is right. Since she arrived here, he was her sworn brother.

"Go, and I will be your lookout." Lou xi said.

"Alright." Sheri went to a remote place where the local spring is. It undoubtedly has rocks on it, and she

can hide from there. She did a quick bath and a quick change.

When she went back to where Lou Xi is. Lou Xi furrowed his brow.

"What handmade soap did you invent again this time? Lou xi asked.

Before Sheri could answer. Sheri heard a swish sound directing toward them. Sheri and Lou Xi dodge

the incoming arrow. 10 men who wore masked appear before them.

Sheri pulled her small knife in her special boots while Lou xi pulled his sword.

This will be the first time Sheri will experience ninja's actions. That's what she was thinking at that

moment.

Sheri was shocked to see people can do a real Qinggong movement.

"Jing concentrate," shouts Lou Xi.

Sheri jolted. She never knew Lou Xi was doing everything he could to protect her.

Sheri joined the fight.

She can't do what they are doing but she is good in close combat. After dodging every arrow and

sword, she saw an opportunity to slay one of their companions.

It took them almost half-hour until they capture the remaining assassin. It was hard to capture them

since they can do suicide but Sheri has a special weapon to stop them from killing themselves. She put

a very potent sleep medicine in her knife that once they were cut on it. The medicine imiditaly goes

toward the blood and making immediately sleep.

Sheri looked at the faces and their weapon to find a clue.

Ru shan also arrived after he heard some fighting noise. Their camp was also fiercely attacked.

He instantly jumps toward Sheri and looked at her from head to toe.

"Are you alright." Ru Shan said.

Sheri elevated her one eyebrow. Her intuition that both of them know already her gender is so evident.

The way Lou Xi protects her and the way Ru Shan always care for her.

Sheri didn't answer. Lou xi already saw what happened.

He shakes his head and gently pats his brother's shoulder.

"Let me talk to her." Lou Xi said gently toward Ru Shan.

Ru Shan undoubtedly has a double feeling. He always wanted to get close to her but somehow his

brother is closer toward her.

Lou xi comforts his brother by squeezing gently his shoulder. His brother gives way toward him and in a

place he went and looked at the corpses and sees who are they.

When they were alone. Sheri speaks up.

"How long your highness?" Sheri asked.

"Sigh, remember the time when we were young, that I touch your chest. I was young at that time and

when I understand the physical aspect I recognize who you are. I did my own research and found out

the truth. I secretly talk to your father, and he indeed confirms it. At that time my brother accidentally

heard when he came asking me something." Lou Xi said.

Lou xi explains further when he saw Sheri silent.

Sheri was pondering. It's impossible that by doing that he can feel it. She was unconsciously touching

her chest and felt like she has had a flat chest until now. She was 14 at that time. She never even had

anything at that time.

While thinking and touching her boobs.

Lou Xi taps her head gently. Sheri waked up from what she's doing.

"Oh," Sheri said.

Lou Xi sigh and smiles.

"It's ok if you do that in front of me but for others, you have to be mindful." Lou Xi amusedly said.

"Huh," Sheri asked. She was genuinely thinking the whole time. She and the crown prince had so many

nights that they sleep together. Sheri can really tell she's a perfect gentleman. She didn't even see nor

even realize they know her gender. Yes, she had a feeling but it's always being put aside.

Sheri wanted to run toward a wall and just slam her head. How stupid and ignorant she becomes.
