The black shadow's hand holding the quilt paused for a moment before covering her body with the quilt again.

Her hot fingers grasped his, tightening their grip.

She put his cold palm on her face and let out a long sigh of relief.

The black shadow slowly leaned down and gently held the hot woman in his arms.

What on earth was he going to do with this life-threatening woman?

The next morning, Zuo Xiangning opened her eyes, looked at Bingyu beside the bed, and asked in a low voice: "Were you taking care of me last night?"

"Yes." Bingyu helped her sit up, put some clothes on her, and said, "You have a fever. I gave you the pills prepared by Doctor Liu. How do you feel now? Zhang Tu has already gone to ask the doctor. .”

"I'm much better now." Zuo Xiangning coughed lightly and said, "Tell Zhang Tu that there is no need to ask a doctor and let him take the two of them to accompany Xiao Wu around the city."

"Okay." Bingyu poured a glass of warm water for Zuo Xiangning and went outside to let Cuilan prepare the meal.

Zuo Xiangning was lying on the bed alone, but she felt something was wrong.

In a daze last night, she always felt that the person taking care of her didn't look like Bingyu.

After arranging things outside, Bingyu walked in and asked Zuo Xiangning: "Girl, can you eat on the bed? Can I bring a small table over?"

When Zuo Xiangning handed the tea cup to Bingyu, she deliberately touched her finger.

Bingyu's fingers were long and slender, with no flesh at all. They were all bones to the touch, but they were warm to the touch.

Zuo Xiangning glanced at her and said, "Okay."

After eating, Zuo Xiangning woke up a little, changed her clothes, walked out of the room, and walked twice in the yard.

"Miss Zuo?" Bai Fengyu looked at Zuo Xiangning worriedly at the entrance of the hospital, "I heard that you are sick? How are you now?"

"It's ready." Zuo Xiangning smiled at him and said, "Why didn't you go out for a walk with Xiao Wu and Zhang Tu?"

"I wrote two letters home." Bai Fengyu walked into the yard and said, "You have been away from home for a while. Do you want to write a safe letter home?"

Of course Zuo Xiangning wanted to write, but she was afraid that if she and her eldest brother had a different story, she would worry her family.

"It will take a while." Zuo Xiangning pointed to the stone table in the yard, invited Bai Fengyu to sit there, and asked Bingyu to make a pot of tea, "I will go to Yangzhou next to deal with some private matters, Prince Ru. I’m afraid it might be a little inconvenient to travel with us again.”

"Then let's separate in Youcheng." Bai Fengyu said, "I'm going to visit a friend in Ghost Valley and will stay with him for a few days."

"Okay." Zuo Xiangning picked up the tea cup and toasted to Bai Fengyu, "Replace the wine with tea. See you later."

"See you later." Bai Fengyu smiled and greeted Zuo Xiangning.

At night, Xiaowu ran into Zuo Xiangning's yard with two rabbit lanterns, inserted the rabbit lanterns in front of Zuo Xiangning's window, and said to Zuo Xiangning in the room: "Sister Xiangning, these two rabbits The lamp is outside, and if you don’t light it in your room, it won’t be dark.”

"Thank you." Zuo Xiangning asked Xiao Wu to open the window a little, "What did you eat at night?"

"Beggar's chicken and sweet and sour fish." Xiao Wu said with a smile: "It's delicious. Shopkeeper Zhang invited me. I promised Shopkeeper Zhang that when I win the prize in the future, I'll treat him to eight large dishes."

Zuo Xiangning laughed out loud, "Then you have to work harder, don't let his beard turn white waiting."

"Sister Xiang Ning, don't worry. When I win the lottery, I'll buy you a set of pure gold nuggets." Xiao Wu said, patting his chest.

"What do big-head noodles look like?" Zuo Xiangning asked with a smile. "It's the biggest and heaviest one. It's made entirely of gold. When worn on your head, it's golden and sparkling. It looks noble and majestic." Xiao Wu said: "It's best to have a few gems of different colors on it. "

Zuo Xiangning walked to the window and said to him with a smile: "I'm afraid that I'll let you in because I'm afraid I'll get sick of you. You should go back and go to bed early tomorrow. Let shopkeeper Zhang take you out for another day tomorrow. "

"Okay!" Xiao Wu ran away happily.

Zuo Xiangning watched him run out of the yard happily before letting Bingyu close the window.

Everyone lives on thin ice, only Xiao Wu lives a truly carefree life.

Looking at his innocent smile, Zuo Xiangning felt much happier.

But when she lay on the bed, she couldn't help but think of Ling Xiao again.

She didn't know whether it was because she was sick, or because she mistook the masked man for Ling Xiao the day before. She could always think of Ling Xiao that day.

Especially after lying on the bed and closing her eyes, Ling Xiao appeared in front of her almost immediately.

He covered her with quilt, wiped her sweat, helped her drink water, and smoothed her hair. His movements were so gentle, exactly the same as when he treated her before.

But she didn't know why, his face seemed to be covered with a veil, but she could never see his face clearly.

"You still can't let me go after all, can you?" Zuo Xiangning took his palm and put it on her face, looking at him with tearful eyes, "Actually, you have been secretly looking at me, right? ?Since you are so reluctant to part with me, why do you still want to leave me?"

"Why are you so stupid?" The man's voice was hoarse like an ancient bellows, and Zuo Xiangning had a hard time hearing him clearly.

"What do you want me to do now? I want to forget you, but I can't. I want you to be with you, but I can't just let you go. Tell me, what should I do?" Zuo Xiangning Chu Chu looked pitifully at the man in front of her who she thought about day and night, "Maybe I really should forget you, let myself go, and let you go."

Zuo Xiangning lay in bed in a daze for two more days.

On the fourth day, Zuo Xiangning took a hot bath. After coming out, she said to Bingyu: "Tell everyone, we will set off tomorrow morning."

"Girl, it's better to stay for two more days." Bingyu looked at Zuo Xiangning's increasingly thin face and advised, "We are not in a hurry. We will leave after you are fully recovered."

"You have to leave early or late." Zuo Xiangning lay on the bed and said to Bingyu, "Give me some soothing incense."

That night, Zuo Xiangning had no dreams.

When they got up the next morning, everyone got on the carriage and left Chuzhou.

Zuo Xiangning opened a corner of the curtain and looked at the Chuzhou City Tower getting further and further away.

This place is a magical place, where she can actually dream of Ling Xiao every night.

She couldn't bear to stay here, but she didn't dare to stay too long.

Ling Xiao has been laid to rest, and she can no longer cling to him and let him die without peace.

On the second day after leaving Chuzhou, when the carriage drove into a forest, Bingyu entered the carriage with Cuilan and Cuihua.

Zuo Xiangning raised her eyebrows, looked at Bingyu and asked, "What's the matter?"

In the past two days, because Zuo Xiangning was not feeling well, Bingyu was afraid that too many people would disturb Zuo Xiangning, so she was always accompanied by one person in the carriage. Now suddenly the three of them came in together, and their expressions were a bit wrong. Zuo Xiangning The first instinct was that something was wrong.
