The second day.

Sheng Wu woke up early, or rather, she didn't sleep at all.

But she did not get up immediately. Instead, she raised her hands and bandaged herself well in front of Shen Yanshuang. She applied the ointment that she had specially torn off before going to bed last night to her chest and shoulders again.

He even raised his hand and pressed hard on his heart, the place where he was injured before.

Let the blood soak into the clothes!

The white garment that had been cleaned up was once again stained with blood, a sight of horror. Sheng Wu, however, remained expressionless, her eyes filled with calculation and ruthlessness.

Then she pretended to go to the kitchen and make some noise.

"Squeak!" The wooden door opened.

When Mrs. Chen Yan saw Sheng Wu busy in the kitchen, she suddenly frowned and quickly stepped forward.

"You want to cook?"

Sheng Wu just placed the bowls in place, smiled gently and nodded.

"Well, I saw you weren't awake yet. You must be tired, so I thought I'd get something to eat first."

As she spoke, she slightly turned sideways, just "inadvertently" letting Shen Yanshuang see the blood on her heart.

Sure enough, the next second.

"Your wound has opened again!"

The corners of Shen Yanshuang's brows were furrowed more and more, not out of worry, but more of doubt.

She had prepared the medicine according to the man's description yesterday. Logically, she should be able to recover a little tonight.

How could it still be......

“Oh, maybe I accidentally touched it when I turned over last night, Miss Shen, it’s okay.”

Sheng Wu, who was dressed as a man, smiled indifferently.

Seeing this, Shen Yanshuang felt a little guilty. She quickly took the bowl from Sheng Wu's hand and rushed her into the house.

"Okay, I'll make breakfast. You go into the room and change the ointment again. There's some leftover ointment on the bedside table."

If this person has always been a bad person, how can I leave here today?

"That's... okay."

Hearing this, Sheng Wu hesitated for a few seconds, and finally sighed in compromise, "Thank you very much, Miss Shen."

As she turned around, the curve of her lips slightly raised.

......

It was noon.

Shen Yanshuang took Sheng Wu's pulse again.

And the black ball was struck by lightning again in the space.

"Why is your body so depleted?"

Shen Yanshuang frowned deeply, and after confirming the pulse again and again, she slowly raised her eyes and looked at Sheng Wu.

After all, I had promised to save him this time, but his old illness was serious, and now it had accumulated and erupted. I was afraid that I would have to treat his old illness as well.

So, I have to ask a question.

Sheng Wu smiled indifferently, "It's okay. Being assassinated and poisoned is a common occurrence for me. Even after years of seeking out various famous doctors, nothing can help. So I've become indifferent to it. Life and death are determined by fate."

"So Miss Shen, just focus on treating her. Even if she can't be cured, I will definitely do what I promised her."

Shen Yanshuang shook her head, probably because she felt that her involvement with Sheng Wu was not too deep, and that he had a gentle and gentlemanly temperament and spoke directly.

"I'm not greedy for your reward, but if such a brilliant man as the Saint Prince died at such an early age, I would feel a little regretful."

Sheng Wu raised her eyebrows humorously, "Miss Shen, I'm afraid you also think that my appearance is quite attractive."

Shen Yanshuang also admitted, "Well, apart from anything else, you are indeed the most beautiful person I have ever seen. However, your way of dealing with people may be more attractive."

"Why do you say that?"

Widow Shen Yan just smiled but said nothing.

Suddenly changed the subject.

"Sir, since you haven't recovered yet, let's stay here for now. Otherwise, if your wounds open again after all the hard work, they might get infected."

"Infected?" Sheng Wu looked puzzled and curious, his dark, bright eyes staring at her. "What does infected mean?"

"......" Shen Yanshuang remembered that there seemed to be no such word in this ancient world, so she explained it in a simple and easy-to-understand way.

Then, Sheng Wu asked curiously, "Miss Shen, where are you from?"

Glancing at the wary look in Chen Yanshuang's eyes, Sheng Wu seemed to suddenly realize the offense and quickly understood.

“Don’t misunderstand Miss Shen, I don’t mean to offend, I’m just curious, and when I saw some strange yet very useful utensils and things in the surrounding houses, I guessed that you made them.”

Some of those are simplified versions of modern daily necessities.

After a pause, Sheng Wu added another sentence.

“If Miss Shen doesn’t want to say it, you don’t have to be strict.”

This has been said to this point, and Shen Yanshuang has a good impression of her. In addition, this man is someone she gets along well with and appreciates since she came to this strange world.

"It's okay to talk about it."

So Shen Yanshuang raised her eyebrows and avoided the important issue.

"I was originally an unloved concubine in my family. My mother died young, and I was looked down upon and bullied by my family. So I ran away from home, disguised as a man, and learned some basic medical skills from some doctors. I traveled around the world and saw many strange things. As I saw more, I learned more."

This is half true and half false.

Even though Sheng Wu understood everything in her heart, she looked as if she had no idea and her face was full of admiration.

"Miss Shen is truly an extraordinary woman. She actually has the courage to leave her family and venture out on her own. Moreover, I think Miss Shen's medical skills are very sophisticated, no worse than those of the medical masters in Shengjing. If she can make a name for herself, she will definitely have a bright future."

Widow Shen Yan turned her head curiously, "Don't you think it's shameful for a woman to show her face in public? Or, do you think it's against morals and shocking?"
