Chapter 158
It was already the next day when Gu Hengyu woke up from the inn.

Beside the bed, Xie Chen supported his head and closed his eyes slightly, even frowning when he fell asleep, for fear that he would not be able to take care of Gu Hengyu if he slept too much.

Gu Hengyu's face was gentle, without making a sound, he reached out to smooth Xie Chen's brow.

Feeling the coolness on his forehead, Xie Chen opened his eyes and bumped into Gu Hengyu's eyes.

"You're awake, is there any discomfort in your body?" Xie Chen asked nervously.

When the doctor came to treat Gu Hengyu's wound last night, the white gauze wrapped around his body was covered with blood, and the wound was hideous and terrifying.

It was only then that Xie Chen knew that Gu Hengyu had such a serious injury on his body.

With a slight smile on Gu Hengyu's face, he shook his head, "It's nothing serious."

Even if there was, he didn't want Xie Chen to worry.

Xie Chen knew what Gu Hengyu was thinking, so he didn't ask any more questions. Thinking of what he saw when he was injured, Gu Hengyu always put himself first, and couldn't help being touched.

"Promise me, don't treat yourself like this again." Xie Chen said firmly.

Gu Hengyu only cared about her situation and didn't think about himself at all.

If there is a next time, Xie Chen doesn't know how to face it.

Gu Hengyu nodded without hesitation.

This time it was an accident, he will never put Xie Chen in such a dangerous situation again, he will protect her well.

Gu Hengyu frowned as he thought about what Xie Chen would face when he returned to Beijing.

After Gu Hengyu's injury was healed last night, Xie Chen managed to get Yunhe to contact the people in Jinyifang.

In a short period of time, Gao Kun couldn't go far, and the people from Jinyifang should have succeeded by now.

The emperor, empress and Xie Han in the capital don't know their own safety, so they must be very worried.

But Gu Hengyu's injury doesn't heal within a day or two...

Xie Chen is planning when is the right time to leave for Beijing.

"Why don't we go back in three days?" Xie Chen asked Gu Hengyu's opinion.

"Let's go after lunch later."

The rumors about Xie Chen's stay in Beijing have not been resolved, so procrastinating is not an option, it will only make the words of the common people worse and worse.

Knowing that Xie Chen was worried about his body, Gu Hengyu added: "My body is fine."

Xie Chen took a few glances at Gu Hengyu, thinking that the imperial doctor in the palace knew more about Gu Hengyu's injury, and the medicine was more effective.

Comparing the two, Xie Chen nodded and said: "Then let's go back to Beijing in the afternoon, walk slowly and steadily on the road, and we can reach the capital before dark."

Although the words are light, Xie Chen has also made a lot of preparations for this.

I specially went to the market in the town to buy cushions and fresh fruits, in order to make Gu Hengyu sit comfortably.

After Gu Hengyu got into the carriage, he saw that it was completely new inside, almost full of things.

It's full of soft things inside, so that he will be less bumpy on the road.

Gu Hengyu smiled and shook his head, feeling that a man was about to speak because of these things, when he saw Xie Chen staring at him with faint eyes.

"You arranged it very well." What Gu Hengyu said was completely opposite to what he thought in his heart, but there was no sign of dissatisfaction at all.

The space in the carriage was originally sufficient, let alone two people, even three or four people would not be crowded.

But Xie Chen was afraid that Gu Hengyu would be uncomfortable on the road, so he prepared too many things and took up a lot of space.

And because he was afraid that his wound would open again on the way, he wanted to accompany him and share a carriage with him.

The two sat up, and their bodies were tighter than before.

Gu Hengyu had a slight smile on his mouth, and he was very satisfied with the closeness between him and Xie Chen in his heart.

These things also have their other uses, and I really don't dislike them at this time.

The weather after autumn is always cool, not stuffy or hot.

But for some reason, the atmosphere on the carriage made Xie Chen feel a little hot.

When he first got into the carriage, Xie Chen was so focused on Gu Hengyu's injury that he didn't realize the distance between the two of them and the ambiguous atmosphere in the carriage.

But just now, Yunhe outside did not know how to do it, and the carriage shook unexpectedly.

Xie Chen was always worried about Gu Hengyu's injury, and subconsciously wanted to find him.

But Gu Hengyu also didn't want Xie Chen to touch her, so he stretched out his hand to hold her.

The distance between the two became tighter due to the sudden change.

If an outsider opened the curtain to look over at this time, those who didn't know would think that Xie Chen was half lying in Gu Hengyu's arms.

"It's so hot, do you think it's hot? Open the window to get some air." Xie Chen was a little at a loss, pretending nothing happened.

Gu Hengyu didn't speak, but just looked at Xie Chen.

Although there was no direct emotion in that look, it still made Xie Chen feel unnatural, and he stretched out his hand to open the window.

Who knew that this road was a dirt road, and there was some wind outside, and dust entered inside after opening the window.

Not long after opening it, Xie Chen closed the window again.

After blocking the sound from outside, the atmosphere in the carriage after finally returning became the same as before.

Although Gu Hengyu didn't say anything, even if Xie Chen didn't look at him, he could still feel that his gaze was always on him.

I don't know how long it took, Xie Chen finally couldn't help it, and said, "Eat some fruit, find something to do, don't keep looking at me."

He seemed dissatisfied, but his tone was full of anger.

After hearing this, Gu Hengyu finally stopped just looking at Xie Chen with a smile on his face.

"The space is too small to carry."

Xie Chen originally wanted to say that he had a lot of things to do, but when he saw the scene in the carriage transformed by himself, he thought of the deep and shallow wounds on Gu Hengyu's upper body, so he nodded and reached out to help him get a fruit.

"Won't you let me feed you?" Xie Chen asked when reaching out his hand to Gu Hengyu.

It was just a joke at first, and I wanted to ease the strange and unusual atmosphere between the two, but unexpectedly I saw Gu Hengyu nodding.

Such a direct way made Xie Chen inevitably blush.

But Gu Hengyu didn't seem to see it, taking advantage of his injuries and needing to thank Chen for everything, he put his head close to Xie Chen and motioned for her to hello.

Thank you cup Gu Hengyu blushed at the sudden approach, and subconsciously leaned back.

Unexpectedly, Gu Hengyu directly reached out to wrap her waist around her and moved forward.

The distance between the two was pulled closer again, Xie Chen felt Gu Hengyu's nose touch his face, subconsciously closed his eyes, his eyelashes curled up and trembled slightly.

After Xie Chen closed his eyes, he felt that Gu Hengyu brought her forward a bit.

"I miss you so much."

Following these words, the warm air spilled onto Xie Chen's ears, and she felt a little itchy, and her small earlobes were stained red.

However, before Xie Chen could reply, he felt a cool touch on his lips.

Xie Chen's face became redder, like a cooked shrimp.
