156 I'm worried about you
The room was still filled with the smell of blood. Pei Yuning walked around the screen and saw the girl lying in the lotus-colored tent with a sad face.
Pei Yuning approached the head of her bed quietly and stood there, scanning every inch of her face silently.
His eyes were fixed on the bloodstains on her shoulder, which were in stark contrast to her pale face.
Pei Yuning looked at her with almost greed. It was because he was too kind that those people thought they could provoke him!
The mottled bloodstains reminded him of his incompetence.
Xiao Tingyun's eyelashes trembled slightly, and with hazy vision he saw a familiar figure standing not far away.
Xiao Tingyun had not yet fully awakened from his drowsiness. He felt weak all over and tried to raise his hand, "You..."
The next moment, Pei Yuning held her hand, his fingertips were cold and boneless.
Xiao Tingyun lost himself in his warm palm and said with a weak smile, "You really came..."
Pei Yuning held her hand tighter and hummed softly, "I'm late."
Xiao Tingyun didn't know why, but his eyes turned red involuntarily. When he saw him, he realized that he was also afraid.
She was afraid that the knife would really go towards her heart, afraid that she would not see the sun tomorrow, and even more afraid that she would not be able to go back and reunite with her parents and relatives...
I'm most afraid of never seeing him again...
Pei Yuning was most afraid of her tears. His throat tightened and he asked, "Does the wound hurt?"
Xiao Tingyun suddenly smiled, "Yeah, it hurts so much that I feel like I'm dying."
That smile was full of trust and insolence, but it made Pei Yuning feel distressed. However, he still scolded her with a stern face, "Don't say the word death. I won't let you die. I promise!"
So, promise me not to say this word...
Yeah, he promised.
How tempting it is to receive such a guarantee from a power-mad man!
"Then... I'll leave my life in your hands." Xiao Tingyun was still in the mood to joke and make Jun laugh.
Pei Yuning also smiled and said in a light tone, "Okay."
It was so soft that Xiao Tingyun almost didn't hear it clearly, but his expression was so serious.
She felt his uneasiness, his remorse, and his love.
Xiao Tingyun hooked his fingers slightly in his palm to comfort him a little.
Lest he feel depressed, Pei Yuning curled his lips helplessly and smiled softly, "Have a good rest, leave everything to me."
Xiao Tingyun nodded obediently, "Okay."
After saying that, Xiao Tingyun still couldn't help but fell asleep again, and this time he slept very deeply.
Pei Yuning raised his hand to help her tidy up the wet hair at her temples. He did not show any of the aggressiveness he showed outside. His movements were meticulous, serious and gentle, as if he was treating a priceless treasure.
But his expression lost its gentleness, and he whispered softly, "No one who hurt you will be able to escape!"
…
When Pei Yuning appeared in the yard again, everyone maintained the same posture.
Qing Er bowed and said, "Master, everyone in the manor has been arrested. The maid just confessed that she was bewitched by someone and wanted to teach Miss Xiao a lesson."
Xiaoju was trembling. Even though the man was so handsome and powerful, and she wanted to climb up the social ladder, she was terrified at this moment.
Like a demon from hell coming after her.
Pei Yuning looked coldly, "Who bewitched me?"
Qing Er said hesitantly, "She said someone gave her money and asked her to find a way to cause chaos in the village, and then someone would naturally take care of the rest."
"However, our people found a group of people in the forest five miles away. They are ordinary guards and are not the same group as the men in black tonight."
What Qing Er said was very clear, that is, two groups of people secretly harmed Xiao Tingyun tonight. I don’t know if it was directed by someone or it was a coincidence?
"I'll say it again..." Pei Yuning's eyes suddenly became cold, and the coldness around him was so thick that it seemed to overflow. He turned his head and glanced at these people, "I want the result!"
Several people knelt down, "Yes!"
"As for her, Ling Chi."
Pei Yuning didn't even glance at her. He just left a few words and walked into the house to guard his girl.
But they knew who it was about.
At this moment, Xiaoju in the corner was still in shock and couldn't recover...
That person, that person turned out to be, was His Majesty! ! !
That word "lingchi" shattered her life. Fire flickered in her eyes, snot and tears mixed together, and a puddle of urine flowed from under her skirt.
Qing Er was full of disgust, "Hurry up and drag him down and clean up Miss Xiao's yard!"
As the night gradually faded, Xiao Tingyun developed a fever as expected, and Pei Yuning was the first to notice her complexion.
"Someone come!"
Alan brought the boiled medicine, and Luzhi and Lanzhi also brought hot water and cotton cloth.
"Just feed him the antipyretic medicine."
Seeing that he refused to give up his seat, Alan opened his mouth to explain.
Pei Yuning stretched out his hand, "I'll do it."
Alan wanted to ask him if he could?
But she was afraid of angering him, and the word "lingchi" really gave her a great shock.
He let go and told Pei Yuning, "Be careful, don't choke her."
Pei Yuning glanced at her and said, "Get out!"
Alan was startled, turned around indignantly, rolled his eyes at him from behind, and muttered, "Who is this person..."
Luzhi and Lanzhi were very tactful and put down the basins and followed him out.
Pei Yuning carefully fed the medicine to Xiao Tingyun. Xiao Tingyun felt that he was in dire straits at the moment. The wound on his shoulder kept aching and his body was protesting again.
The bitter medicine in her mouth made her whole face wrinkled.
Pei Yuning knew her resistance and coaxed her softly, "Just drink it, don't make me worry."
Xiao Tingyun opened his eyes when he heard the voice, his lips dry, and he said aggrievedly, "It's too bitter..."
Pei Yuning touched her face soothingly, which was unusually hot, and said softly, "Would you like some nectar?"
Xiao Tingyun's face turned abnormally red, and he stared at him intently, "Eat."
Pei Yuning chuckled, carefully helped her up and leaned her against the cushion, then took out a bottle of nectar from his arms and fed it to her.
The bitterness in his mouth dissipated, and Xiao Tingyun seemed to come back to life.
Pei Yuning wanted to continue feeding her the medicine, but Xiao Tingyun frowned and said, "Just give it to me. If you feed me one mouthful at a time, it will make it more bitter for me."
"Okay, then, go slower."
Xiao Tingyun swallowed the bowl of medicine in one breath like a brave man cutting off his own arm.
The nectar was brought to her lips again, and Xiao Tingyun opened her mouth obediently and drank it.
Pei Yuning wiped her face and hands with a handkerchief, his movements gentle and delicate.
A slight coolness passed over his red cheeks, and Xiao Tingyun sighed comfortably.
The onion-like hand grabbed his sleeve and said to him helplessly, "I was planning to leave for home the day after tomorrow, but something like this happened. If I go back, they will definitely worry."
Pei Yuning squeezed her palm and said calmly, "Don't think too much right now. Nothing is more important than your body. If you can't say it, I'll say it."
He went to say it?
Xiao Tingyun was curious, "What did you say?"
"Just tell me."
Xiao Tingyun sighed, realizing that this was actually the best excuse. After all, her wound would not heal in a day or two.
And I couldn't just make up an excuse not to attend my second brother's child's hundred-day party.
"Oh..." Xiao Tingyun was a little worried.
Pei Yuning chuckled, "You are still so young, why are you sighing like this? Just focus on taking good care of your body, don't worry about the rest."
He rubbed her delicate cheek with his fingers, saying tenderly, "I'm worried about you."
Xiao Tingyun was stunned. He put his hand on his and all his previous hesitation was settled.
Yeah, he'd be worried...
"I used to feel that there was nothing worth lingering about in this world, but now I really want to be selfish for once."
How could he bear to let go of the only tenderness in this world...
