"Li Zhanfeng! What's wrong with him?!" Gu Wanrou rushed to the edge of the medicine pool anxiously.

She desperately wanted Li Zhanfeng to wake up, but Li Zhanfeng was in so much pain that he could only use the pain to stay awake and couldn't care less about her.

Ni Niang squatted at the edge of the medicine pool, anxiously explaining as she inserted silver needles into Li Zhanfeng's acupoints:

"The people from the Emperor-Slaying Alliance have already been poisoned, and Master Feng has also been contaminated with it. In addition, Master Feng's injuries are very serious, and the poison has directly entered his body through the wounds. We can only try to find a way to force the toxins out of him as soon as possible!"

"However, the herbs we use are too potent, and Master Feng must withstand the enormous effects of the medicine! The process of clearing the toxins will naturally be very painful for Master Feng, but there's no other way now. We don't have many Chinese herbs here, and these are the only ones we can use!"

Gu Wanrou's head was buzzing, and she couldn't help but raise her voice: "Is he just supposed to suffer like this?"

The moment she finished speaking, she jumped into the medicinal pool without any hesitation!

"Sister Wanrou..." Ye Meng called out nervously. Ni Niang's experienced expression flashed with surprise. She then gestured for Ye Meng not to come over, but her hands were still skillfully helping Li Zhanfeng place the herbs and add the medicine.

In the medicinal pool, Gu Wanrou hugged Li Zhanfeng tightly, her fingers running through his hair.

Her voice was already choked with sobs: "Li Zhanfeng, don't be afraid, okay? I'm here, I've always been here..."

That's right, it was the man she had hated for five years who rushed over to save her from the fire countless times at the brink of death.

Even if there were mountains of knives and seas of fire ahead, he would jump down without hesitation for her sake.

But this man, who loved her to the core, was etched into her heart and hated by her for five whole years...

She now understands that compared to the burning feeling in her heart, what did the past pain matter?

This man truly cherished her dearly, a god who would protect her with his life...

Li Zhanfeng was enduring immense pain, feeling her soft body pressed tightly against his, his whole body stiffening.

Is he really not dreaming?

His soft body... is hugging him!

In that instant, Li Zhanfeng felt as if he had been struck by lightning. His slender fingers suddenly gripped Gu Wanrou's wrist tightly, and his scarlet pupils seemed to want to imprint Gu Wanrou into his mind forever.

"Gu Wanrou, you're hugging me!"

He had fantasized about this scene countless times in his dreams, but even if he and Rou Rou reconciled, he still didn't dare to face Rou Rou directly.

But now, this scene, which has appeared countless times in my dreams, is clearly unfolding before my eyes...

"Yes! I was hugging you!" Gu Wanrou's voice was already choked with sobs. "Li Zhanfeng, let's make up... let's make up, okay? Like before..."

Li Zhanfeng felt an electric current flow from his head straight to his limbs and bones, and even doubted whether he was dreaming.

A wild, excited glint flashed in his dark eyes. His pupils dilated violently, and he grabbed Gu Wanrou's waist with both hands: "Rourou, tell me, this isn't a dream?! You said you wanted to make up with me..."

Just like before!

Just like back in Murou Manor, I've been immersed in my own world countless times!

Gu Wanrou could clearly feel Li Zhanfeng's chest pounding violently and his arms trembling with extreme excitement. A sudden pang of pain shot through her heart, and her throat tightened as she hugged Li Zhanfeng even tighter.

"Yes, Li Zhanfeng, this isn't a dream..."

Her voice trembled as she sobbed, and tears fell one by one onto Li Zhanfeng's arm.

Then, she fixed her gaze on Li Zhanfeng, her eyes filled with sincerity and passion:

"You heard me right, let's make up, Li Zhanfeng."

"We have lost so much in the past few years, and I don't want to have any regrets in the future."

"Of course, I don't want to lose you either."

The soft, emotional voice reached his ears, and Li Zhanfeng trembled violently.

What gleamed in his scarlet eyes was the unbridled arrogance and wildness of a beast after getting what it wanted, as well as an intense possessiveness.

His Rou Rou said she wanted to make up with him, and his Rou Rou finally made up with him!

"Alright!" Li Zhanfeng gripped Gu Wanrou's arms tightly with both hands, yet he seemed afraid of hurting her, trying his best to control his strength.

"Rou Rou, you said it yourself! What if you go back on your word?"

Over the years, Rou Rou's disappearance has become a nightmare in his life.

Without Rou Rou, every moment felt like torture to him.

He knew all too well how much he had suffered over the past five years, living a life worse than death, so he was even more afraid that this fleeting pleasure was just a dream, and even more afraid that after this fleeting dream, there would be an extreme hell that would make him suffer unbearable pain!

He could no longer bear the heart-wrenching pain of those years!

Gu Wanrou stared intently at Li Zhanfeng, her eyes glistening with tears: "If I break my promise, you can do whatever you want with me. You can lock me up in your Murou Manor, or you can..."

Before she could finish speaking, Li Zhanfeng excitedly pulled her into a tight embrace!

"It's not just my Mu Rou Manor, it's the Mu Rou Manor that belongs to both of us."

His deep voice was clearly tinged with pleasure; it was so gentle and doting.

Holding Gu Wanrou in his arms, it was as if he had once again captured the tenderness of the past in his embrace.

The feeling was like a beast that had lost the sun finally breaking through the clouds and finding a ray of sunshine that belonged to it.
