The moment Ning Wan finished speaking, Shen Jingze's gaze naturally fell on her wrist.
Shen Jingze stepped forward without hesitation, but his steps were a little unsteady.
It was not until Shen Jingze walked in front of her that Ning Wan truly realized that Shen Jingze was really going to kill her.
Ning Wan wanted to hand the branch crutch to Shen Jingze, but unexpectedly, Shen Jingze placed his hand directly on her wrist.
Shen Jingze's hand was cold, and when it rested on Ning Wan's wrist, the only feeling it brought was: cold.
But that wasn't the reason why he held her hand.
Before Ning Wan could say anything to refuse, Shen Jingze spoke.
"Then there is Miss Lao Ning."
Ning Wan's gaze fell on the hand at the wrist, and she saw a faint trace of blood on the finger bones.
I couldn't say no.
At the palace gate, Chu Si squatted at the threshold, his brows sometimes furrowed and sometimes relaxed.
Why did he believe Ning Wan's lies? She clearly cared about him, but she still lied to him and said she would come to his rescue.
Chu Si sat there for two hours, until Ning Wan came back with Shen Jingze.
Ning Wan didn't expect Chu Si to be guarding the door.
He stood there in a daze, his mouth slightly open, trying to figure out how to explain it so that their presence at that moment would seem reasonable.
Chu Si stood up, dusted off the dust from behind, looked at Ning Wan who hadn't spoken for a long time, and said helplessly:
"I know you're anxious, but don't be anxious yet."
"You have to keep him alive first!"
Chu Si's eyes were full of disapproval of Ning Wan doing something, and then he grabbed Shen Jingze's arm and walked straight towards the guest room.
Gold leaves, oh gold leaves.
Ning Wan looked at her empty hands and the red mark on her wrist.
Why is she anxious?
What does it mean to know that she is anxious?
Knowing that Chu Si had misunderstood again, Ning Wan hurriedly followed him.
Unexpectedly, this time Chu Si did not take the person to the guest room, but pulled him to his own yard.
The side courtyard was cleaned up.
Seeing Chu Si's cautious protective look, Ning Wan looked up at the sky.
It's really a curse. The sun didn't rise from the west today.
This was the first time that Chu Si brought a patient back to his own hospital for treatment.
[Host, the male protagonist left thirty-four gold leaves for Chu Si.]
Ning Wan: ...Well, she is too narrow-minded.
Chu Si moved very quickly, and in a short while he brought out the medicine prepared for Shen Jingze.
Shen Jingze looked at the black medicine, said nothing more, picked it up and put it to his lips.
The potion is just the right temperature to drink.
Without thinking too much, Shen Jingze raised his head and drank it all in one gulp.
Chu Si looked at the bowl without a drop of medicine, smiled with satisfaction, and helped the person back into the room.
Half an hour later.
outside the house.
Ning Wan sat on the side, staring at the empty bowl in a daze.
[Host, the hero won't die so easily.]
A hand waved in front of Ning Wan's eyes, "Don't worry, he won't die so easily."
Two voices sounded at the same time, bringing Ning Wan's wandering thoughts back.
Chu Si did not ask in a hurry, but just picked up the medical book beside him and started reading.
Probably half an incense stick of time had passed.
"Fourth brother, don't you have anything to ask?"
Ning Wan looked at Chu Si, who was calm and composed, and felt a little curious as to why her fourth brother, who was always gossipy, didn't question her.
Chu Si's eyes did not move away from the medical book. He just replied calmly, "What do you want to ask?"
Ning Wan:?
What else can I ask? Of course, I want to ask her why she is with Shen Jingze.
Just looking at Chu Si's indifferent look, Ning Wan always felt that if she explained, it would seem like she was trying to cover up something.
"Junior sister, please stop messing around in the future."
Seeing that Ning Wan didn't say anything, Chu Si put down the medical book in his hand and said slowly:
"Even if you really want to be alone with your sweetheart, you shouldn't ask him out."
"He doesn't look like he can climb a mountain."
"After all the trouble today, if your fourth brother hadn't been here, he would have reported to the underworld in the middle of the night."
As Chu Si spoke, he picked up the teacup beside him and took a sip of water.
Ning Wan looked up in surprise. After thinking for a while, she finally spoke tentatively, "Fourth brother, did he tell you that?"
"What did you say to me like that?" Chu Si put down his teacup again after hearing this. "Don't blame Xiao Jing. He didn't say a single bad word about you. He even praised you."
Ning Wan listened to Chu Si defending Shen Jingze and thought again and again: "If I say that I went up the mountain because the top of the mountain is suitable for watching the sunset, will Fourth Brother believe it?"
Chu Si didn't say anything when he heard Ning Wan trying to change the subject. Instead, he frowned slightly and started thinking seriously.
But while Chu Si was thinking, his gaze kept shifting between Ning Wan and the door.
"I meant it was just me, not Shen Jingze and I."
Seeing Chu Si's overly direct gaze, Ning Wan understood what he meant and quickly added another sentence.
"As your fourth brother, of course I believe you."
After a moment of silence, Chu Si spoke again.
But this time, there was no smile on his face, only seriousness in his eyes:
"Just Junior Sister, if you are interested in Xiao Jing, there is no need to hide it."
"Your fourth brother and your master are definitely not unenlightened parents. They won't use etiquette to restrict you."
"So, Junior Sister, if you like someone, just be bold and pursue them. There's no need to waste your energy finding excuses to hide your true feelings out of fear of being criticized."
Chu Si knew that his junior sister might be able to distinguish right from wrong in major matters, but she was completely confused when it came to feelings.
But no one is born with knowledge, so who can be without doubts?
There are some things that he doesn't teach. With my dumb head, how long will it take me to thoroughly understand the principles behind them?
Looking at Ning Wan who was already in a daze, Chu Si gave her another strong dose of medicine.
"But if Junior Sister is just as she said, and doesn't have such feelings for Xiao Jing, then she should have made it clear."
Ning Wan didn't expect that her little test would result in Chu Si's heartfelt words.
The half of her body sitting on the chair shrank back slightly, lowered her eyes, and pinched the hem of her clothes with her fingers:
"I didn't lie to you, Fourth Brother. I really did go to watch the sunset. But just as I reached the top of the mountain, I saw him trying to commit suicide. That's why you saw that scene."
When Chu Si heard this, he looked at the door again and frowned slightly.
That young man doesn't look like someone who would commit suicide.
But he also knew that his junior sister would not lie to him.
Chu Si looked at Ning Wan, who was feeling a little down, and stood up, patted the little sister's head, and chuckled:
"Don't think too much. Fourth Brother said he believes you, so he does."
