"No...go away...Chang...Chang Mu..." Feeling groggy, Xu Danyang felt as if he had been exposed to the scorching sun for a whole day. His whole body was weak and hot.
"Bao'er, come on, open your mouth."
The cool liquid slowly extinguished the heat. After a while, Xu Danyang slowly opened his heavy eyelids.
"Baoer!"
She turned her head blankly, and happened to look into a pair of dark eyes, which seemed to hide thousands of worlds, bright, gorgeous and unfathomable.
"Here, take another sip."
A faint scent of mint hit her nostrils, clearing her chaotic mind. She suddenly realized that she was actually half-leaning in the man's arms!
She grasped the skirt of her clothes warily, "You..."
"Bao'er, you are weak, you should rest." As he said that, Chang Mu put down the medicine bowl and gently felt her pulse, without any intention of letting her go.
"You...you know everything?" Presumably, he already knew about her disguising herself as a man. She would no longer be able to talk freely with him and travel around the world together. However, if he knew that she was a woman, the two of them...
She lowered her eyelashes, feeling seven points of disappointment and... three points of excitement.
"Yes." Chang Mu let go of her wrist and nodded, "Bao'er, you are graceful, brave and resourceful, and you protected Miss Murong thoughtfully in dangerous situations. Chang Mu really admires you."
Xu Danyang was stunned, as if...the two of them were not talking about the same thing, right?
Chang Mu thought to himself and said: "Just now, old Valley Master Murong came here with Miss Murong. Miss Murong may have had a misunderstanding. She praised me for being a hero for saving the beauty. She even said that she would give her life to me, Bao'er, regardless of her shyness.
I feel extremely ashamed and will definitely explain to Miss Murong..."
"Chang Mu, you just checked my pulse, right?" She interrupted him and lowered her head, feeling a faint trace of inexplicable loss in her heart.
"Yeah." Chang Mu nodded as if he didn't understand why.
"Is there any difference?" A woman's pulse is different from a man's. He has outstanding medical skills, how could he not detect it?
Chang Mu's eyes flickered slightly. The person in front of her had a pale complexion, beautiful eyes and hazy eyes. Her loose black hair made her as delicate as a flower in the wind and rain.
He calmly turned sideways, and the faint shadow of the curtain happened to cover his face. After a while, he nodded, "Yeah."
She slowly raised her head and looked into his eyes, her face unconsciously filled with ardent expectation.
"Bao'er, don't worry, you and I..." He thought for a long time before he solemnly said, "You and I are still the same as before..."
"Same as before?" she repeated in a murmur.
He held her hand tightly and looked straight at her with his clear eyes, his expression extremely solemn, "Bao'er, don't worry, I will always treat you...as a brother..."
Hearing what he said, she couldn't help feeling sad. After a long time, a cold smile appeared on her delicate lips, "Brother? Today, you know... you know that I am... you and I will still be brothers in the future?"
He nodded without hesitation, "Bao'er, I will never forget your kindness to me. You are not only my brother, but also my savior."
The cold moonlight reflected on her cheek, making her face pale and lonely. She closed her eyes gently, and a drop of clear tears fell from the corner of her eyes, "I'm tired."
Alas, Chang Mu is an idiot. In one word, it would be a shame to lose his wife! If his father were present at this time, he would be so angry that he would skin him!
