...Once Ye Ningwan understood, she no longer had so many concerns.
Given Pei Fengzhi's character, she won't lose out either way; after all, such a handsome man is rare in this world!
"It's just taking a shower, why make such a fuss!"
As she spoke, Ye Ningwan tossed her wet clothes aside, sank her body down, and submerged herself in the water from her collarbone down. The water rippled, blurring her vision until only a vague outline remained.
Pei Fengzhi's gaze remained fixed on Ye Ningwan's face, like a refined gentleman who remained unmoved by temptation, not glancing at her in the slightest, gentle and refined as jade.
Ye Ningwan's vigilance did not relax until Pei Fengzhi turned around on his own initiative.
"Let's scrub your back first."
Ye Ningwan breathed a sigh of relief; it would be a lie to say she wasn't nervous.
After all, although she talked a lot, apart from the night she was drugged a few years ago, she had never actually eaten meat, only seen it.
She wrung out the towel and gently wiped Pei Fengzhi's back.
Pei Fengzhi's long hair was tied back with a light blue jade hairpin. Her back was very thin, with two butterfly-shaped hairpins that looked like butterflies about to take flight, their outlines perfect yet rugged.
He was indeed too thin, so thin it was heartbreaking.
After quickly wiping his back, Pei Fengzhi turned around, and the lotus and fish tattoo on his waist seemed to come alive in the water. The blue koi fish darted around his groin, lively and playful. Even though she had seen it many times, it still made Ye Ningwan blush and her heart race. She gripped the towel tightly and leaned closer.
The two were very close. Ye Ningwan had her head down and didn't realize that Pei Fengzhi's gaze had already fallen on her back.
Then you can see that Ye Ningwan has a small, bright red, flame-shaped birthmark in the middle of her spine.
Pei Fengzhi narrowed his phoenix eyes.
Is this woman... the woman from his memory?
He didn't believe there could be so many coincidences in the world. The people he dreamed about during the years he was in a vegetative state, the familiar feeling he had when he saw Ye Ningwan, and the woman with the bright red birthmark written in the notebook that fell out of the study.
But why did Ye Ningwan say that this was their first meeting?
A hand suddenly waved in front of Pei Fengzhi.
"what's on your mind?"
Pei Fengzhi snapped out of his daze, glanced at Ye Ningwan who was staring at him with a probing look, but quickly looked away and said indifferently.
"Don't get so close to me, I can see everything."
Ye Ningwan was startled, then immediately hugged herself, sank into the water, and retreated to the other end of the bathtub, glaring at Pei Fengzhi with dissatisfaction.
This person still dares to say that he was the one who just gave him a righteous and stern speech, offering all sorts of excuses to persuade him!
She ground her back teeth, silently grumbling about Pei Fengzhi in her heart, and gave him an order in a bad mood.
"Turn around!"
Pei Fengzhi's lips curved into a faint smile, and he obediently turned around, his back to Ye Ningwan.
The sound of rushing water and rustling clothes came from nearby. Then a bathrobe fell down and covered Pei Fengzhi's head. Ye Ningwan's dissatisfied voice was also in his ears.
"Get up yourself!"
Pei Fengzhi knew perfectly well that Ye Ningwan was angry.
He stood up from the bathtub, supporting himself against the wall, put on a bathrobe, and obediently extended his hand to Ye Ningwan.
Ye Ningwan then helped him out of the bathroom and onto the hospital bed before sitting down on her own, ignoring him completely.
Pei Fengzhi stole glances at her, as if looking at a kitten that had a conflict with him, proud and aloof.
He sat on the edge of the hospital bed, waving to Ye Ningwan, who was holding a clean towel and whose hair was still dripping wet.
"Wanwan, come here."
Ye Ningwan glared at him, her small face puffed out with anger, looking like a pufferfish.
Pei Fengzhi smiled coolly and said it again.
"Wanwan, come here."
Ye Ningwan snorted, stood up, and slowly walked towards the hospital bed.
Pei Fengzhi watched her waddle around like a tortoise, reached out and pulled her into his arms, covering Ye Ningwan's head with a towel. His voice was still gentle, but it carried an undeniable force.
"Don't move, let me dry your hair. You'll easily catch a cold and get a headache if you do this."
Ye Ningwan's tone was still not very good.
She muttered something under her breath.
"You only have one hand, and you still want to help me dry my hair."
Pei Fengzhi was not angry.
"I just want to be nice to you."
Upon hearing this, Ye Ningwan suddenly fell silent, her chest pounding and her heart racing.
Pei Fengzhi's movements were very gentle, and because of his injury, they were a little slow. Ye Ningwan narrowed her cat-like eyes, looking very comfortable.
But then Pei Fengzhi's voice rang in her ears.
"Wanwan."
"Um?"
"Jiang Yinglin said you are the last disciple of the Immortal Physician?"
"Um……"
After Ye Ningwan responded, she suddenly opened her eyes, her whole body tensed up, and she became clearly alert.
"There's no way I could help you disturb my master!"
Pei Fengzhi looked at Ye Ningwan, who had suddenly turned around, stared into her eyes, and smiled reassuringly.
"I'm not looking for her, I'm only looking for you."
His words seemed to have a hidden meaning, but instead of calming Ye Ningwan, they made her fur stand on end.
"Pei Fengzhi, what exactly are you trying to say?"
Pei Fengzhi did not hide anything and told her the truth honestly.
"You know, although I was lucky enough to survive, I lost all my previous memories, which is very inconvenient for me, so I would like to ask you to heal me..."
As he spoke, he suddenly leaned close to Ye Ningwan's ear, his warm breath brushing against her ear.
"The Immortal Physician".
Ye Ningwan practically jumped off Pei Fengzhi.
Her cat-like eyes widened in surprise.
"I don't understand what you're saying! What kind of immortal healer are you? Why are you calling me master?!"
Seeing Ye Ningwan's helpless expression, Pei Fengzhi smiled faintly, scrutinizing her with a half-smile.
When Ye Ningwan met Pei Fengzhi's gaze, she quickly calmed down, and even her voice changed.
When did you find out?
Pei Fengzhi smiled. He didn't directly answer Ye Ningwan's voice, but instead said...
"Your voice is very pleasant to hear when you speak without straining."
Ye Ningwan remained silent.
"..."
After a moment, she shouted at Pei Fengzhi in shame and indignation.
"I'm asking you when you found out!"
Seeing Ye Ningwan jumping up and down, Pei Fengzhi smiled and said.
"Actually, I wasn't really sure. I was just trying to trick you, but you confessed on your own, which saved me a lot of trouble."
Ye Ningwan hadn't felt this kind of energy without having to go on a mission in a long time!
She gasped for breath for a long time before finally choking out a resentful sentence.
"Pei Fengzhi! I want a divorce!"
