She stretched out her hand with difficulty to touch him.
But because I didn’t have enough strength, I started to tremble when I lifted it in the air.
"Let me touch you."
Huo Jingmo immediately took her hand and put it on his face.
The green stubble is a bit prickly and itchy.
Gu Ruojiao touched his eyes gently, and her eyes became moist.
"You don't even take good care of yourself."
When she looked at the injuries on his body, her eyes filled with tears.
Seeing that she was about to cry, Huo Jingmo said hurriedly: "Don't cry, it's not good for your health."
Adjutant Chu was expressionless on the side: "My subordinates think that you, Marshal, are not qualified to say this."
Huo Jingmo silently glared at Adjutant Chu.
Adjutant Chu was stunned to bear it, and detailed Huo Jingmo's actions to seek death.
Huo Jingmo narrowed his eyes: "Adjutant Chu, I think you are looking for death."
"I think that the young commander who can only move one hand may not be able to defeat me." Adjutant Chu was brave and fearless.
Huo Jingmo: "..."
Gu Ruojiao couldn't help laughing.
Seeing that she finally smiled, Huo Jingmo felt relieved.
Adjutant Chu also retreated silently.
"Don't cry, it took a long time to wake up."
Huo Jingmo stroked her face, looking tired.
Gu Ruojiao wanted him to lie down.
But the iron frame beds of this era were very narrow, and the wounds of both people would open if they were forced to lie down.
"Don't stay with me here anymore, go to sleep."
"Go there later and let me see you again."
When thinking of the scene of her lying in a pool of blood, Huo Jingmo felt as if a large piece was missing from his heart.
Even now, knowing that she was awake, he still felt strongly uneasy.
Until this moment, he still remembered the feeling of blood gushing out from the wound and soaking his hands.
The bright red and warm liquid made him feel frighteningly cold.
It was as if a long, long time ago, she had fallen into his arms covered in blood like this.
And when he thought she was awake, she died in front of him.
So Huo Jingmo didn't dare to sleep.
He was afraid that as soon as he opened his eyes, she would leave him.
Gu Ruojiao understood what he was thinking, but she also knew that only comfort was pale.
The more you care about someone, the more you will be afraid of the other person leaving.
So she didn't try to persuade him anymore, but imitated him and refused to sleep.
After realizing her intention, Huo Jingmo showed a helpless look.
"You..." She is obviously a delicate little rose, but when she becomes stubborn, it's really hard to do anything about it. "Stop holding on, go to sleep."
Gu Ruojiao puffed up her cheeks: "If you go to sleep, I will sleep too."
Huo Jingmo couldn't resist, so he pulled the iron frame bed next to her next to her hospital bed.
He lay on it and held Gu Ruojiao's hand with the hand that could still move.
"Okay, go to sleep now."
Only then did Gu Ruojiao agree to close her eyes.
She fell asleep quickly.
Huo Jingmo also fell asleep shortly afterwards.
When Adjutant Chu brought the food in, he saw them holding each other's hands and falling asleep.
He watched for a while and then went out quietly.
*
We are both injured people in the world.
The two patients stayed in the hospital for ten days before they were finally allowed to go back.
During this period, Gu Ruojiao learned about the situation that day.
The person who ambushed them was not Ma Dongzhao's people.
But they were people who worked under Ma Dongzhao before.
Ma Dongzhao was ambushed after being betrayed by him.
But Ma Dongzhao's power was divided among several people.
That's why he wanted to annex Huo Jingmo's territory, so he had someone ambush him nearby.
But because of Gu Ruojiao's reminder, that person's plan failed.
During the few days when Huo Jingmo stayed by Gu Ruojiao's side, Adjutant Chu led his men to blow up the guy's lair.
