Ye Ningwan hadn't run more than a few steps when she suddenly bumped into someone.

The tip of his nose slammed heavily into the man's chest.

"Hmm!"

She covered her sore nose and squatted down, head down. At that moment, her nose and eyes both stung, and tears flowed uncontrollably.

A thud sounded in my ear.

The person bumped into by Ye Ningwan was slammed against the wall and fell to the ground silently.

When Jiang Yinglin caught up and saw the scene, he was also stunned.

"Ninth Master!"

He quickly stepped forward and helped Pei Fengzhi, who looked as weak and sickly as a beautiful woman, to her feet.

Hearing this, Ye Ningwan was startled and looked up abruptly, tears welling up in her dark cat-like eyes like ripples.

Pei Fengzhi brushed Jiang Yinglin's hand away, barely managed to stand up straight, and glanced down at Ye Ningwan, who was squatting on the ground.

His gaze lingered for a moment on the white shoes she was wearing, which bore half a shoe print, before he spoke to her in a gentle voice.

"I'm fine."

Ye Ningwan knew that she couldn't escape now.

She had no choice but to stand up and gently tug at Pei Fengzhi's sleeve.

"Why did you come out? You just had surgery, and the anesthesia hasn't completely worn off yet. You should be lying down and resting."

Jiang Yinglin, standing to the side, couldn't help but roll his eyes at the woman in front of him, whose expression changed faster than flipping through a book!

"Ninth Master came out to find a doctor..."

Before Jiang Yinglin could finish speaking, Pei Fengzhi quickly chimed in.

"I'm here to see you."

Jiang Yinglin was stunned and looked back at Pei Fengzhi in disbelief.

"Huh?!"

Just moments ago in the ward, Pei Fengzhi was anxiously searching for the Immortal Physician, but now he was gently holding Ye Ningwan's hand, leaning half his body against her, looking weak.

"I feel a little dizzy, can you help me back?"

Ye Ningwan immediately helped Pei Fengzhi up and asked anxiously.

"What's wrong with your head? Where exactly does it hurt? Come back quickly, I'll take your pulse!"

Pei Fengzhi nodded slightly, responding almost imperceptibly. The two walked towards the ward, their bodies close together.

Jiang Yinglin, left out in the cold, stared at the two figures from behind, remaining silent for a very long time.

The bodyguard kindly stepped forward.

"Young Master Jiang, Ninth Master has been appeased. Shall we still go find that Immortal Physician?"

Enraged, Jiang Yinglin took off his leather gloves and slammed them hard against his bodyguard.

"Find him my ass! Anyone who tries to find him someone else is an idiot!"

The bodyguard took Jiang Yinglin's gloves and silently watched him jump up and down in anger.

Jiang Yinglin paced around in circles for a while before pointing in the direction where the two had disappeared, and said angrily.

"That guy Pei Fengzhi was hit by 12 bullets back then, and even with shrapnel lodged in his brain, he was still alive and kicking!"

"He only had hand stitches! And he's this weak? Would you believe it if you were in his shoes?! Ye Ningwan was so smart when she was with me, but now she's acting like a brainless idiot!"

The bodyguard glanced helplessly at Jiang Yinglin, a hint of pity in his eyes for a single man.

"This is just the fun between a young couple; you're a single dog, you wouldn't understand."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yinglin became even more enraged and grabbed his bodyguard by the ear, yelling.

"I'm not single! I have a fiancée! I've been a ladies' man, I've been dating since I was 13!!! You're the one who doesn't understand romance, your whole family doesn't understand romance!"

The bodyguard was being pulled by the ear by Jiang Yinglin, groaning and begging for mercy, but inwardly he was filled with contempt.

Jiang Yinglin's fiancée is just a decoration; it makes no difference whether she's there or not.

As for Jiang Yinglin's girlfriends, haha, when has he ever truly cared for them?

...

Ye Ningwan helped Pei Fengzhi back to the ward.

It wasn't until Pei Fengzhi lay back down on the hospital bed and the entire ward fell into a deathly silence that Ye Ningwan realized something was amiss.

It was so quiet.

Everyone in the ward had disappeared, and even Zhang Lin, the assistant who had been staying there, had left without anyone noticing.

Ye Ningwan asked Pei Fengzhi with a slightly uneasy smile.

"Sleep a little longer. I'll go back and make you some soup. I'll have Zhang Lin and Jiang Yinglin stay with you at the hospital. I'll bring you dinner this evening."

As she spoke, she gradually moved away from the hospital bed.

At that moment, Pei Fengzhi suddenly grasped her hand, his dark, deep phoenix eyes revealing a vulnerability unbecoming of someone of his status, and whispered something.

"But Grandpa told you to take good care of me, and the healer also said you would take care of me afterwards. Are you just going to leave like this?"

He was so gentle, as if he would never force anyone, but it was precisely this gentleness that made it difficult for the usually strong-willed Ye Ningwan to refuse.

She hesitated for a moment before sitting back down on Pei Fengzhi's bedside, awkwardly pulling away from his tightly gripping hand.

Pei Fengzhi didn't say anything, slowly withdrew his hand, and just kept looking at Ye Ningwan with his head turned to the side.

Ye Ningwan always felt that Pei Fengzhi's gaze had some kind of strange magic, able to see through the layers of skin she wore to her soul.

She even had a fleeting thought that the other party might have already discovered her status as a healer.

She shifted uncomfortably, and finally, unable to bear it any longer, she reached out and covered Pei Fengzhi's eyes, speaking more rapidly in a flustered manner.

"Didn't you say you had a headache? Go to sleep, why are you staring at me like that!"

Pei Fengzhi smiled and gently removed Ye Ningwan's hand from his eyes.

He did not answer Ye Ningwan's question, but instead said...

"I want to take a shower."

Ye Ningwan was stunned when Pei Fengzhi suddenly said that.

"ah?"

Pei Fengzhi sighed, his voice tinged with difficulty.

“I always need to take a shower before bed, otherwise I can’t fall asleep, but…”

He raised his hand, which had just undergone surgery, and waved it in front of Ye Ningwan.

"But I'm not feeling well right now, so could you... help me?"

Ye Ningwan felt as if her brain had short-circuited, her mind was blank, and she had turned into a sticky, gooey mess.

"ah?"

Pei Fengzhi was very troubled when he saw Ye Ningwan's reaction.

"Wanwan, are you unwilling to help me?"

Ye Ningwan gritted her teeth.

Is it a matter of willingness or not?

She was internally ranting and raving, but her face didn't show the slightest bit of disgust. Instead, she acted utterly pitiful.

"But I've never taken care of anyone before. I'm afraid I won't do a good job and you'll get hurt. Grandpa already has a lot of opinions about me because of my past. What if he kicks me out of the Pei family if he finds out that I failed to take good care of you and hurt you?"

Pei Fengzhi watched Ye Ningwan act silently.

He reached out and gently stroked Ye Ningwan's beautiful and delicate face, whispering something.

"But only you have seen my body, and I only want you to see it. No one else can touch it."
