"Yo~ You're finally awake." Zhu Fei walked in with a bowl of medicinal soup in her hand. As soon as she entered the room, she saw Lou Ming lying there with his eyes wide open, staring at the ceiling.
Hearing the voice that was engraved in his mind, Lou Ming turned his head abruptly. Was he really dreaming?
He looked at Zhu Fei in disbelief as she walked towards him step by step. He would never forget this face. It was the face that had been engraved in his mind. He never thought he was really dreaming.
But it was good to be dreaming. At least he could see her again.
Zhu Fei saw Lou Ming staring at her without even blinking. She was a bit speechless. Was she that scary? Had he been scared silly?
"Hey! Are you okay?" Zhu Fei walked over and wanted to reach out to feel his temperature, but unexpectedly, Lou Ming grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his arms.
"You..."
"Don't move. Let me hold you for a while. Just for a while. Do you know? I've been dreaming about you. But I could only watch you from afar and couldn't touch you. I never thought this dream would be so real."
"It's so good to be able to hold you."
Hearing his words, Zhu Fei had a speechless expression on her face. So he thought he was dreaming. This was really too much.
Zhu Fei punched him right on his wound. He groaned in pain.
"How about it? Are you awake now? Is this a dream? If you're not awake, I'll punch you again." I guarantee I won't kill you.
"Cough... Why are you so rough, woman!" Ouch... It hurt so much. This stinky girl really knew how to use her strength.
"Humph! It's already good that I didn't kill you. Since you're awake, get up and drink your medicine quickly." Zhu Fei picked up the bowl of medicine on the table and walked over. She had boiled it for a long time. Fortunately, it wasn't cold yet.
Otherwise, all her hard work would have been in vain.
"Feed me. I don't have the strength." Lou Ming leaned weakly against the bed.
Zhu Fei looked at the pale - faced man on the bed and then at the wound that was bleeding from her punch just now. "Alright, I'll feed you."
Before Lou Ming could even feel touched by her words, he felt his chin being pinched, and his mouth was forced open. A large bowl of extremely bitter medicinal soup was poured down his throat by Zhu Fei.
"Um... Cough, cough, cough..." Lou Ming lay on the edge of the bed, coughing desperately. He was choking.
"Is this how you feed me medicine?" People who knew would know she was feeding him medicine. Those who didn't know would think she was poisoning him.
"Is there something wrong?" Zhu Fei was very confused. Why was this big man so fussy? She was not happy anymore.
"Can't you use a spoon to feed me?"
"Did you drink it when I just tried to feed you?"
"Is that called feeding? That's called pouring!"
"I'm just asking you, did you drink it?"
"Drink... I drank..."
"Then that's that. Why are there so many troubles? A big man being so fussy."
When Zhu Yan walked in, he heard them arguing. After listening, the corner of his mouth twitched. It seemed that he would never be able to make his sister act like a lady in his lifetime. Maybe she would only act a bit more ladylike in front of the Valley Master.
As for in front of others, hum... She didn't even consider herself a woman.
"Cough... Fei'er, the Valley Master is looking for you. Go there first. I'll take care of this guy for you."
"Okay, got it."
Lou Ming watched warily as the man walked in from outside the door. Fei'er? Why was their way of addressing each other so intimate? What was their relationship?
Zhu Yan felt helpless seeing the hostility in the man's eyes on the bed. He could tell how this man felt about his sister. But you don't have to be so hostile towards your future brother - in - law, do you?
"Hello, I'm Zhu Yan. I'm Zhu Fei's older brother. Her real older brother." Also your future brother - in - law, so be polite to me.
Lou Ming was stunned for a moment, then smiled awkwardly. "Hello."
"This is the Pharmacist Valley. Our Valley Master found you in a cave. You've been in a coma for two days."
"May I ask who your Valley Master is?"
"Our Valley Master? Well, you could say she's an acquaintance of yours. Her name is Mu Fengqie."
So it was her...
In the capital city, Lou Xingzhou looked at the place where he had lived for more than twenty years. He sighed and then turned around and left. From then on, he was no longer the eldest young master of the Lou family. He was just Lou Xingzhou.
If you were to ask him if he hated Jing Xunchao, his answer would be no. Because he knew that this was what their Lou family owed him. Now it was finally paid off. He just didn't expect that Jing Xunchao would plead with the emperor to spare his and Yue Ying's lives.
When Shen Yiru heard about this, she quickly packed her things, took some silver, and left the Shen Mansion. But before she left, she left a letter for Mrs. Shen and Mr. Shen.
"Master, Madam, something's wrong. Miss Shen is gone."
"What did you say?"
"When this servant went to Miss Shen's room to clean, I found that Miss Shen wasn't in the room. There was only a letter on the table."
Dear Aunt: Thank you, Aunt and Uncle, for taking care of me these years. But now I've fallen in love with someone. His identity is special, and it's not convenient for him to stay in the capital. So please forgive my filial piety. I'm going to pursue my own happiness. I hope Aunt and Uncle will take good care of yourselves.
"This... When did Yiru fall in love with someone behind our backs?"
"Humph! Who else could it be? Didn't you see in the letter that the man's identity is special and it's not convenient for him to stay in the capital? Isn't this talking about Lou Xingzhou from the Lou family?"
"Oh~ When did Yiru get together with him? This girl is really something. Lou Xingzhou has nothing now. I don't know if they can be together and live a good life."
"Sigh~ Let that girl go. She'll know to come back after hitting enough walls."
"I'm just worried. Yiru has never suffered any hardships. What if something happens to her? How can I explain it to my older brother?"
"Sigh~"
"Lou Xingzhou, I like you. Just agree to be with me~"
Not long after leaving the capital, Shen Yiru found Lou Xingzhou and then followed him all the way.
"Lou Xingzhou, where are we going?" Along the way, Shen Yiru just kept talking.
"Miss Shen, I'm now the son of a criminal. You shouldn't follow me. There's no good result in following me. You'd better go back quickly." Lou Xingzhou looked at this little girl who had been following him. It was impossible for him not to be touched.
"I won't! Do you know? You used to seem so unattainable to me that I didn't even dare to get close to you. But now it's different. You're just an ordinary person like me now."
"Then do as you like. Anyway, I won't take care of you."
"Hehe! I don't need you to take care of me. I can take care of myself. I won't cause you any trouble."
