Chapter 51 Instead of feeding her, let's do it now...

Yu Wenxue covered her eyes, determined not to look any longer, and silently cursed the system in her heart.

Why did she look up? Why did she peek? Wouldn't it have been better if she just stayed still and behaved like a wooden doll?

If there were a hole in the floor, she would definitely crawl in without hesitation and become a shady little mouse, which is better than being punished later.

Just then, the hands covering their eyes were removed.

"You just now..."

"I saw everything." Yu Wenxue slapped her mouth: "I didn't see anything."

"I just wanted to ask if you were feeling unwell just now?" Gu Yun Shen leaned down and touched her forehead with the back of his slightly cold hand: "Your face is very red."

"It might be a bit too hot in the room; we need to change to a thinner blanket." Yu Wenxue fanned herself with her hand, avoiding his eyes.

His question reignited the pent-up frustration that had just subsided.

Is she going to say, "Did you just see Little Gu?"

Obviously not.

Then she won't be the only one digging into the hole; they'll all be there together, staring at each other in the hole.

Gu Yunshen stared down at her, his smile meaningful: "But you snuggled into my arms last night, I thought you were cold."

"..."

I really want to shut him up.

Yu Wenxue closed her eyes, trying to ignore the inappropriate images, and lied to him, "You're mistaken, you were sleepwalking."

"I thought you were calling my name in your sleep, but it turns out... I was sleepwalking."

?

When did she shout?

No, right?

Her throat tightened, and she couldn't speak. Her eyes widened, and she tentatively asked, "Did I talk in my sleep and call your name?"

“Not only that.” Gu Yun Shen closed his eyes, then slowly opened them again, as if recalling something. With a hint of mockery, he said, “You also said a lot more.”

"For example?"

Yu Wenxue clutched the blanket, her heart pounding so hard it felt like it was going to jump out of her throat.

Could she have revealed what they did in her dream?

That's way too explicit for adults!

“For example…” Gu Yunshen drawled, pausing for a moment, “You said that peach blossom wine is very delicious.”

My heart, which had been hanging in suspense, died.

The tension and excitement were no less than when they first met and witnessed him commit murder; it was just as chilling.

The words he wanted to say evasively swirled in his mouth but he couldn't bring himself to say them. His blank gaze shifted from his face to his chest.

She was dressed, and although she couldn't see, she still retained her previous memories.

All that remains are memories that shouldn't be recalled...

An intense itch that seemed to penetrate to the bone was gnawing at every inch of Yu Wenxue's skin. Her lower lip was bitten until it bled, and she gently licked it, tasting a faint metallic scent of blood.

A peculiar fragrance filled the entire room, making my brain feel like it was about to explode, and the scene before my eyes became increasingly blurry and dim.

Gu Yunshen pressed his thumb and forefinger against her mouth: "Don't bite yourself."

"Bite me."

Without thinking twice, Yu Wenxue bit down on his tiger's mouth.

A tingling sensation spread through the spot where she had bitten me; I felt no pain at all, and even wanted her to bite harder.

Gu Yun Shen raised his hand and pressed two acupoints on her chest, shaking his head helplessly: "You're already in so much pain, yet you're still forcing yourself to endure it."

If she just asked, I could be at her beck and call, instead of suffering like I am now.

His fingertips traced along her earlobe, and he himself was unaware that his breathing had become rapid, his voice hoarse: "If this continues, something bad will happen."

Yu Wenxue didn't dare bite hard. Her remaining rationality warned her that when Heaven is about to place a great responsibility on a person, it will first test their will, strain their muscles and bones, starve their body, and empty their mind...

Her vision was blurry, but she could feel that an excessively beautiful face approaching her.

Thinking of the task the system had given her, she shamelessly pinched herself, a hot, sticky liquid dripping from her nose, before she completely lost consciousness...

*

"Young master, a letter from Shuozhou." Guan Nan handed over the letter, then stepped aside and winked at the little cat beside him.

The kitten ignored him and wriggled into Gu Yunshen's arms.

The letter was delivered by fast horse from Shuozhou, bearing Lu Qingsheng's personal seal, and could not be faked.

After quickly reading through the letter, Gu Yun Shen lit a candle and waited until the letter had completely turned to ashes before slowly wiping his hands.

According to the letter, Lu Qingsheng has found someone who can cure her heart ailment. He is an old witch doctor from Miao territory who is currently traveling in Luoyang and is expected to return to the capital in six months.

"But half a year is too long," Gu Yunshen muttered to himself.

"Young Master, are you really going to reject His Highness the Crown Prince's proposal and not go to Longxi?" Guan Nan carefully chose his words and said, "I think this is a good opportunity to make a name for myself."

"The wind and sand in Longxi are strong; she won't be able to adapt."

"..."

OK.

Guan Nan scratched his chin and smiled, "However, I've heard that Tianlian Mountain is near Longxi, not far away, so perhaps it can help cure the poison in Madam's body."

Gu Yunshen seemed to be deep in thought.

The trip to Longxi was not originally in his plans. Apart from Gu Rongting, the Gu family members were basically useless and not worth his time.

As for that old man in the palace, let his good-for-nothing son handle it; he doesn't need to waste his energy on him.

But now...

He looked out the window and saw Yu Wenxue's room across the way. The girl was hunched over her desk, scribbling and drawing with a worried expression, seemingly writing something.

I would rub my fingers from time to time, mostly because they hurt from writing.

After meeting his gaze, she immediately covered her face with a piece of paper, pretending not to see him.

How could he bear to leave her here alone?

Gu Yunshen smiled.

Seeing that he did not deny his title, Guan Nan became even more smug and continued, "Then in a few days, I will go and purchase a new batch of servants. Right now, there is only a cook and an old man who guards the gate, and the courtyard looks rather deserted."

Gu Yun Shen withdrew his gaze and asked, "You said last time that Gu Rong Ting sent over a box?"

"yes."

The box was exquisite, about the size of a palm, and inside it was a letter neatly placed.

Below the letter was a marriage certificate.

Guan Nan exclaimed in surprise, "This is..."

Gu Yunshen knew, of course, that this was a fake marriage certificate, as the birth dates of both of them were written incorrectly.

Yu Wenxue was born in April, but when she was taken in by her parents, it was winter, so they made up a birth date and time for her in winter.

But he himself was actually born in the twelfth lunar month...

He has never believed in fate, let alone the so-called birth date and time. The marriage certificate is completely useless to him. However, since it concerns Yu Wenxue, he has to ask for her opinion.

"Gu Rongting, that bookworm, actually did a good thing."

“Go and report to the Crown Prince that I am willing to go to Longxi, but…” Gu Yun Shen twirled the marriage certificate, closed the box, and said in a light tone, “Just say that I want to bring my fiancée with me.”

*

Unaware that she had become Gu Yunshen's "fiancée," Yu Wenxue sneezed while sitting in the bathtub.

First thinking, then cursing, then muttering—who's thinking about her again?

The poisoning has been acting up more and more frequently lately. The nosebleed incident she had last time still haunts her, and she has even started taking more showers. For example, this is her third shower today.

She blamed everything on Gu Yunshen, the culprit, believing that he had deliberately seduced her, causing her to be blinded by his good looks.

That must be it.

And the system actually told her to kiss there! It's utterly shameless! How can she face him now...?

Lost in thought, I drifted off to sleep without even realizing it.

In a daze, she was lifted up and shrank to a cooler spot, where she touched a firm, elastic place.

He tightened his grip on her wrist, his calloused fingertips pressed against her pulse, and whispered in her ear, "Why didn't you come to me if you weren't feeling well?"

Yu Wenxue felt inexplicably wronged, and her bitterness turned into tears. She sobbed, "What's the use of coming to you? All you do is punish me by making me squat in a horse stance."

"..."

Despite her complaints, she instinctively wanted to get closer to that cool spot, grasp the large hand that was pinching her wrist, and press it against her face.

"It's so cool."

As soon as she finished speaking, she was wrapped up like a round dumpling and carried to the bed.

The already feverish body couldn't help but twist, and the tightly fitted blanket slipped down beneath her.

Gu Yunshen quickly pulled the blanket over her.

When the poison took effect, her mind was not clear. Yu Wenxue tilted her head and looked at him, then raised her hand to poke Gu Yunshen's eye.

Wanting to get more.

After reaching this conclusion, my fingertips suddenly recoiled, and I instantly became much more alert.

"Take your medicine." Gu Yun Shen supported her shoulders and back, and when he touched her naked skin, the tips of his ears turned slightly red.

“I won’t eat it, it’s too bitter.” Yu Wenxue shook her head.

He looked away and said, half-coaxing and half-threatening, "If you don't listen, I'll skin you like a rabbit and eat you."

Yu Wenxue blinked her grape-like eyes: "Bunny is so cute, how can you eat a bunny?"

Gu Yun Shen looked at her with a half-smile: "You think I wouldn't dare?"

"Eat it or it'll come back for revenge tonight!"

"Are you feeling unwell?" Gu Yun Shen ignored her ramblings and gently lifted her chin.

"I'm so hot and itchy, am I going to die?" Yu Wenxue huddled under the covers, only her head peeking out, and sighed, "What should I do? I haven't lived enough yet. I finally got this life, I can't just let it go like this..."

Gu Yun Shen looked at her face, which was flushed red from the poison, and moved his fingertips.

After a long silence, he grasped her hand and placed it over his heart: "Are you still going to hold back?"

"I am at your beck and call anytime."

As her consciousness gradually returned, the hand pressed against his chest suddenly felt a burning sensation. Yu Wenxue curled her fingers, turned her head away, and muttered, "No."

"This kind of thing happens naturally when two people are of one mind and the situation is in harmony, rather than when one party compromises for the other."

She bit her chapped lip, reached out her hand, and said in a hoarse voice, "Why don't you tie me up?"

If I tie him up, he won't move around, and I won't be able to touch him...

Gu Yun Shen looked around and found that there was nothing suitable to tie a knot with.

He lowered his head and pondered for a moment, his long eyelashes drooping, as he untied his belt and wrapped it around her wrist gently and carefully.

"I'm here whenever you need me." After wrapping the last loop, he took out a pill and held it to her lips: "Be good."

"Since you dislike me, you'll have to suppress it with this for now."

Yu Wenxue, recalling the nauseatingly bitter scene from last time, instantly broke out in a cold sweat: "Do you have any maltose?"

Gu Yun Shen was amused by her appearance, the smile spreading from his chest to his whole body, his gaze burning: "No candy."

"However, I have a way to make it less bitter for you."

Yu Wenxue looked up: "What..."

The remaining words were swallowed up in his bitter mouth before he could utter them.

At first, their lips touched, a gentle and tentative touch. Then, their tongues were opened, and the bitter taste of medicine swirled on their tongues. But in a moment, they were enveloped by another breath.

Yu Wenxue was forced to tilt her head back and endure the kiss that was used to feed her medicine. She reached out to push it away, but her arms were weak and powerless, making it seem more like she was trying to refuse.

The heat caused by the poison gradually subsided, and a pair of hot, large hands grasped her shoulders. The slightly awkward movements quickly became familiar and tender.

Time suddenly stretched out infinitely.

The sobbing gradually subsided.

This method of administering medication is probably something only he could come up with.

Although it was strange, I didn't feel uncomfortable at all; on the contrary, I even found a bit of fun in it.

Startled by her own thoughts, Yu Wenxue stepped back. In her panic, her palm pressed against something hard. Blinking her tear-filled eyes, she exclaimed in alarm, "Could you please remove your sword?"

"..."

"It's a bit uncomfortable; I'm afraid I might accidentally draw it and hurt myself."

"..."

Gu Yun Shen looked at her trembling body, turned his head and smiled.

She's the type of person who doesn't realize she's in deep danger.

He covered her eyes, sighed helplessly in his heart, and whispered in her ear, "Are you feeling better?"

"Much better." Yu Wenxue buried her face in the pillow.

If this happens a few more times, I'll probably die from this poison, if not from heart disease.

The crescent moon outside the window is like a hook.

After putting on her nightgown and drinking two large jugs of water, she secretly snuggled up to Gu Yun Shen.

The Cool Baby product lives up to its name, it's so comfortable!

Before that, she touched him to make sure he hadn't brought the sword to bed this time, and then she closed her eyes with peace of mind.

Live one day at a time, and worry about tomorrow tomorrow.

Gu Yun Shen rubbed the back of her head: "What, you're done using me?"

"When you get sick in the future, I will take good care of you unconditionally." To emphasize her sincerity, Yu Wenxue stressed the words "unconditionally."

"However, I don't want you to get sick."

Life in the past was already too bitter; from now on, it should be as soft and sweet as cotton candy.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look up.

Gu Yun Shen's collar was loose, his lips were stained with a thick red, his fingers tapped the bed board casually, and his smile was even more captivating.

She sat up, staring intently at his half-open chest.

Why not, take advantage of the present moment...

Author's Note: Now's the time! Charge! [Starry-eyed]

Silly daughter, that's not a sword [glasses]

Yuan Ciyue transmigrated into a book, and the system wanted her to win over the world-destroying demon in the book.

Legend has it that the world-destroying demon was born with a jade-like appearance and golden features, and was incomparably handsome, but he was cruel and ruthless, a madman who killed without hesitation.

Sure enough, the first thing they saw was the ninety-eighth conqueror being carried out covered in blood.

As the ninety-ninth conqueror, she wrapped herself tightly in her blanket, disobeyed the system's instructions, and ran away.

On their escape, they encountered a handsome, wounded young man covered in blood, holding a dying cat in his arms.

Yuan Ciyue, being kind-hearted, rescued both the person and the cat.

The two ventured into the martial world together, slaying demons and monsters along the way.

The boy was extremely skilled and gentle. He not only protected her safety but also took good care of her daily needs.

In the cold winter, he would warm the bed before letting her in;

On hot summer days, he would carefully fan her to lull her to sleep.

As time went on, Yuan Ciyue felt that living with him wasn't so bad.

On the day of the wedding, I suddenly heard the system notification that I hadn't heard in a long time: "[Congratulations, host, the conquest mission is complete]".

Yuan Ciyue looked at Chi Yanzhou, who drew her eyebrows every day...

How could such a gentle and considerate husband be that tyrannical and ruthless world-destroying demon?

She didn't believe it.

After once again logging off the annoying system, Chi Yanzhou hugged her affectionately from behind and asked, "Who were you talking to just now?"

Yuan Ciyue turned around and kissed him, completely unaware of the fleeting darkness in his eyes, and smiled sweetly: "It's nothing, it's your birthday today, you should make a wish."

The boy tightened his grip on her waist: "Then let's be together for all eternity."

-

Besieged on all sides and betrayed by his family, Chi Yanzhou lay bleeding and covered in wounds.

When he was at his most miserable, Yuan Ciyue appeared and rescued him from the quagmire where he could not see the light of day.

No matter how fierce he was and how many times he forced her to leave, she remained devoted to him.

Until one day, she disappeared.

He searched frantically throughout the Three Realms, but could find no trace of her. He knew she had come to seduce him, so he abandoned all his cultivation and returned to the past.

But he discovered that the people trying to win him over weren't Yuan Ciyue, but rather a series of strangers.

Wearing masks of hypocrisy, they followed some kind of instruction with the cold indifference of puppets, vying to say that they wanted to save him.

ridiculous.

After killing the so-called conqueror for the ninety-eighth time, Chi Yanzhou casually wiped the blood off his sword.

I looked up and met those familiar eyes.

He was annoyed that the other person didn't remember what he looked like.

He knew she was the most soft-hearted, so he deliberately appeared before her covered in wounds.

As expected, she saved him.

He succeeded.

-

Having successfully completed the mission, Yuan Ciyue was forced to leave this world.

On the day I was taken away by the system, the only way back was shut down.

The surrounding area was filled with cries of despair and bloodshed.

Chi Yanzhou stepped over the crimson stain, extinguished the system that was still issuing commands, and leaned down to kiss Yuan Ciyue between the eyebrows.

"You promised that we would be together for all eternity."
