Behind him were fire and medicine, and he never blamed Su Yingxue for not applying medicine for him.
It was all his own affair.
âWhat do you mean ânothingâ? If Iâm late, Iâm late. If Iâve neglected you, Iâve neglected you. Canât you show some backbone and throw a tantrum at me?â Su Yingxue stomped her foot in frustration.
Why didnât this man care about her?
Zi Wei looked at her blankly. âNo.â
Su Yingxue was speechless.
It was like talking to a wall.
Forget it, she gave up. Zi Wei was like a wooden person. Besides the ice in his heart, he had no emotions and wouldnât lose his temper.
She shouldnât make things difficult for him.
âLie down. Iâll treat your wound and brew some medicine for you.â
Nevertheless, he still listened to Su Yingxue.
After lying down, he seemed even more like a wooden person. Besides his breathing, there was no sound from him.
Even when Su Yingxue stitched up his wound, he didnât even furrow his brow. Instead, he quietly fell asleep.
Su Yingxueâs eyes filled with heartache.
She pinched Zi Weiâs cheek and pouted. âIf you act like this, Iâll feel more and more guilty.â
She had pulled him out of the Silver Moon Pavilion, only to have him injured again and again!
Luckily, she could heal him.
Taking advantage of his sleep, Su Yingxue went into Medicine King Valley. She fetched the spiritual spring water and brewed the antidote for him. She calculated that two more times, the poison accumulated in Zi Weiâs body for many years should be cleared.
This way, he would become a normal person again.
Just the thought of it made her very happy.
She sat by Zi Weiâs bedside with a bowl of medicine in her hand. When he woke up, she couldnât help but smile.
Little did she know that when Zi Wei opened his eyes, he saw such a pure and flawless smile, like peach blossoms blooming in March, blooming brightly and passionately.
Zi Weiâs heart was stirred.
Su Yingxue saw him open his eyes and helped him up to drink the medicine.
Zi Wei held the medicine in his hand. Su Yingxue even took out a small paper bag from her bosom. She opened the paper bag and stuffed one of the candies into Zi Weiâs mouth. She took out another and shook it at him. âHere, Iâll give you another one after you finish the medicine.â
Zi Wei obediently drank all the medicine and waited for Su Yingxue to stuff the second candy into his mouth.
Holding the candy in his mouth, Zi Wei hesitated to bite it. He asked, âHave you been carrying it with you?â
His gaze landed on the sugar packet in Su Yingxueâs hand.
Su Yingxue stuffed the candy bag back into her belt and raised her eyebrows.
âOf course. If you donât listen, I can only feed you candy. If I donât bring it with me, what if you get injured again and refuse to take your medicine?â
After all, protecting her was a dangerous job.
He was either stabbed or cut every few days. If she couldnât treat him in time and couldnât bring him candy, then she was too much of a master!
Zi Wei lowered his head, and a warmth that others couldnât understand entered his wooden eyes.
Su Yingxue brought Zi Wei back to the Marquisâs Manor. The Marquisâs Manor had many injured people in the past two days, and it was bustling with activity. The case was handed over to Liang Jin to investigate, and Su Yingxue became a doctor at home with peace of mind.
In Fengzao Palace, Chu Xiaotian kneeled in front of the Empress. âNephewâs family has met with such an unexpected disaster. The Su family wants to separate me and my beloved wife. I hope that Imperial Aunt will seek justice for Nephew.â
The Empress sat on the throne and ordered someone to help Chu Xiaotian up. She comforted him gently. âI know that you are a good child. I also know about the matter between you and the Princess. It was all because of Su Yingxue. I naturally wonât stand by and watch the two of you fight to such an extent..â
