Chapter 148
She regretted it as soon as she said it.
Why bother?
This kind of paper-made person would die in an instant, not to mention that Xue Shun is already in such a tattered state.
He couldn't stand the wind or the rain, and would vomit blood if he was a little tired. Wasn't it pitiful that she wasted her youth and best years on him? And she had to risk her life?
What can she get?
There was only a crybaby in front of her, pulling her to sob softly, then she grabbed the pillow, curled up into a ball, and lay beside her.
Shen Jiao pulled Xue Shun's face and said, "Say thank you."
Xue Shun opened his eyes slightly and asked her in a hoarse voice: "Shen Jiao, do you love me?"
Shen Jiao helped him close his eyes again.
He just keeps saying things that want people to die.
"Why do you suddenly ask this, sir?"
"Nothing, just saying... I'm a little cold."
Shen Jiao pulled the quilt over to cover him.
After a pause, she said sincerely, "Of course I like you, young master."
Xue Shun: "You are a liar."
"Does the young master love me?" Shen Jiao asked back.
Xue Shun: ...
"You are still so heartless." He sighed, held back his tears, and spoke softly.
How come you don’t forget to curse even after such a situation?
Shen Jiao frowned and looked at him, then touched his head, which was a little hot.
Xue Shun: "I'm not confused."
"Perhaps, please get some sleep, young master."
Xue Shun did not respond to this.
"I won't leave."
Shen Jiao sat next to him and put her hand into the quilt. Xue Shun didn't let her help rub it anymore. Perhaps the medicine was working. He just held Shen Jiao's hand tightly.
It took me a long time to close my eyes and breathe slowly.
Beads of sweat continued to drip down his body. Shen Jiao's handkerchief was already soaked. She wanted to gently pull her hand away and grab a towel, but as soon as she moved, Xue Shun woke up: "Don't worry about me."
Shen Jiao: ...
"Did you fall asleep just now, sir?"
"Um."
“…”
Shen Jiao didn't believe it. How could anyone know what she was doing when she was asleep?
Xue Shun also learned to lie.
"Go to sleep. I will always be with you. Even if you die, I will be the first to know."
Xue Shun felt a little sad: "Am I... a particularly bad guy? I know it's wrong."
"Not even close," Shen Jiao said honestly, "A real jerk wouldn't even ask that question."
Xue Shun was still quite sad: "If I really died, what would you do?"
Shen Jiao: "I'll run quickly. If I'm lucky, I'll survive and take all your money with me."
Xue Shun: "Go get some writing brush and ink."
"what?"
"I'll write something to prove your innocence."
Shen Jiao was somewhat tempted, so she really went, and Xue Shun really propped himself up and sat up to write.
The handwriting was so ugly that even Shen Jiao could hardly imitate it.
It took him a long time to identify it when he held it in his hand. It probably said that if he died, it would have nothing to do with Shen Jiao, and he would give all his money and things to her, and asked her mother to help take care of her and give her freedom.
I was rambling on and on, and I also took the opportunity to put Qiongzhi and Xuanxiao in a certain place, but I couldn't even write on two pages.
It was really written as a suicide note.
He vomited blood as soon as he put down his pen. Shen Jiao quickly tore the last page of paper aside before looking at him.
"Young Master..."
Xue Shun knelt there, supporting himself on the bed with one hand and wiping the blood with the other, and comforted him, "Don't be afraid, I'm fine."
He knew that Shen Jiao was not afraid at all, but he still said so every time.
It's a way to comfort her and also to comfort myself.
If he is fine, then Shen Jiao will naturally be fine too.
Xue Shun's body is like a tattered paper man, but his vitality is as strong as weeds, and he can survive no matter what.
Even if he didn't get better after getting through the night, he opened his eyes, which made Shen Jiao feel relieved.
But he couldn't feel at ease because Xue Shun still couldn't eat. He did what he said and tried, but he ended up vomiting miserably and pitifully.
He didn't want to try it again, but he really wanted to take a bath.
Shen Jiao thought her heart was harder than iron and colder than ice, but she couldn't completely ignore it.
"Just change your clothes."
Xue Shun was surprisingly stubborn about this matter: "No, I still have to meet someone."
"Then wash your hair. I'll help you dry your body."
"No……"
"No no!"
"Wash your hair and I'll help you wipe it, or wash your hair and you can wipe it yourself, or don't wash anything and I'll find a funnel to pour the porridge into your stomach!"
Shen Jiao was particularly irritable because he couldn't sleep and had to listen to stupid advice.
Xue Shun's stubborn eyes instantly cleared up: "I'll wipe it myself."
Shen Jiao smirked: "Young Master is such a reasonable person."
She is also the one who does all the hard work and won't let anyone take advantage of her.
Shen Jiao shared his bed with him every day, and occasionally she wanted to be his bride for a few days instead of being his mother, taking care of a sick child...
Shen Jiao was too lazy to care about him. He just quickly smoothed his head over, dried it with his spiritual power, and let him fend for himself.
She sat outside and watched what Hall Master Zhao had done in the past.
In fact, I just flipped through it on a whim, saw some meaning in it, and asked someone to move some more over.
Naturally, it was in the name of Xue Shun.
Anyway, no one dared to break in and stare, so it didn’t matter whether Xue Shun looked at it or not.
It's good enough that he can sort himself out.
Shen Jiao: "Sir, hurry up or you'll catch a cold."
She is not very patient.
Xue Shun was equally annoyed: "I know."
He just doesn't have the strength, not that he doesn't want to go faster.
If Shen Jiao continues to quarrel with him like this, he might as well just kill him.
Xue Shun felt very aggrieved.
Shen Jiao didn't understand him either, and said in a very unkind way: "Sir, if you don't come out, I will go in."
Xue Shun: ...
"You dare!"
Of course Shen Jiao dared: "It's not like I haven't seen it before!"
When she first came, she served him every day. Xue Shun had several scars on his body before, and Shen Jiao knew them better than he did.
There's nothing to be shy about.
Xue Shun knew that she had seen it, but how could it be the same?
In the past, his feelings towards Shen Jiao were clearer than water, but now they are more turbid than old tea that has been steeped for a long time. If he no longer has any scruples, how could that be possible?
Besides... I've already finished the medicine I got from Doctor Sun...
He might have eaten too much and felt weak for a while, so he thought it would be fine if he didn't eat, but recently he's felt hot again...
Xue Shun naturally wanted to be with Shen Jiao...
But……
"That's it."
Xue Shun threw the towel into the basin, grabbed his clothes and put them on.
He suppressed the emotion in his eyes, walked out slowly, and looked at Shen Jiao puzzledly: "What are you doing?"
Shen Jiao was just like a street vendor, throwing books here and there, leaving the floor all over the place.
I was also sitting on the ground.
Xue Shun had no choice but to walk over, throw her a cushion, and slowly sit down while holding his stomach.
Shen Jiao didn't bother to be polite with him, and even forgot to pretend to care about him. She just smiled and raised the book in her hand and said, "This servant has found something very interesting."
