Luo Chengguan was taken to a clinic by her.

She seemed to be very familiar with the doctor here and asked the doctor to check his injuries.

His clothes were taken off, and she audibly gasped.

There was hardly a piece of intact skin or flesh on Luo Chengguan's small body. The wounds wrapped in tattered strips of cloth were still oozing blood. Some had already formed scabs, while others were left with only ugly scars.

He felt embarrassed for a moment.

It's not because his pain is exposed to others, but because he feels that if she sees his ugly body, she will hate him like everyone else.

However, when he met her eyes, he did not see any disgust in them. Instead, those clear eyes were filled with...heartache?

Is she feeling sorry for me?

Realizing this, Luo Chengguan felt something move under his chest.

On the side, even the doctor who was used to treating both major and minor injuries was stunned.

This child looks to be no more than seven or eight years old. Who hurt him like this?

He lowered his head, bit his lip and said nothing.

The little girl ran away for a moment, but came back a moment later with a paper package and opened it in front of him.

He looked over and found it was a bag of candied fruits, small, crystal clear candied fruits.

She picked up a pill and put it to his lips, saying, "I heard that if you eat something sweet when you're in pain, it won't hurt so much."

He subconsciously opened his mouth and bit it.

She sat aside and put one in her mouth, smiling with satisfaction.

When she smiled, her eyes curved, and her pupils were filled with countless stars. The little red mole at the corner of her eye looked like a flower blooming.

He wondered how there could be someone in this world who could laugh so foolishly.

Luo Chengguan chewed the candied fruit in his mouth, and the sweet taste spread in his mouth. It really seemed that the pain was not that severe anymore.

After the doctor gave him some medicine, she asked him, "Where do you live? I'll take you home."

He shook his head: "I can go back by myself."

She was a little worried: "Can you do it yourself? You won't try to commit suicide again, will you?"

"No more." He said firmly.

He now feels that the world is not as bad as he imagined.

She seemed to still not believe it, and stretched out her hand to him: "How about this, let's make a promise. You have to promise me that you will never do anything stupid again. I finally saved you, and half of your life belongs to me, so you can't just give it up."

Luo Chengguan was puzzled: "What is a zip hook?"

"Just do what I do and hold out your pinky and thumb," she said, demonstrating.

Luo Chengguan followed suit and stretched out his hand.

She hooked her little finger around his and then pressed her thumb together with his.

He said, "Look, now we have stamped our seal. From now on, your life belongs to me."

"Huh? Didn't you just say it was half a life?"

She waved her hand and said, "Don't worry about these details."

Luo Chengguan pursed his lips helplessly: "Okay."

She took her hand back, took a step back, and said, "You go first. I'll watch you go before I go."

He nodded. "Okay."

After Luo Chengguan walked out of the clinic, he headed in the opposite direction of his residence.

After walking for a while, he turned back and looked inside the clinic, and saw that the place where she had just been was empty.

She's gone.

He then walked towards his residence.

He was afraid that after she knew where he lived, she would know that he was a hostage of Dongxu Country, and then she would reject him like they did.

Luo Chengguan never asked her name.

He thought they would meet again.

However, they did not expect that after this meeting, Xuancang Kingdom soon encountered civil strife, and these hostages from other countries had the opportunity to be sent back to their own countries.

In these years at Dongxu, he practiced diligently, conserved his energy, and climbed up step by step to his current position, just so that he wouldn't be so helpless and panicked when he saw her again.

But unexpectedly, when I saw her again after many years, she had already married and had children.

She had long forgotten him.

…

Luo Chengguan snatched the wine bottle from Luo Huaiyang's hand, tilted his head back to take a sip, but was choked so hard that he coughed repeatedly.

He was scolded so much that tears welled up in the corners of his eyes.

Luo Huaiyang patted his back to comfort him and said helplessly: "You are so old, but you are still like a child."

Luo Chengguan paused for a moment, handed the wine bottle back to him, and said with a bitter smile: "I was too impatient."

Luo Huaiyang took the wine pot and took a sip. Suddenly, he asked in surprise, "Hey, brother, weren't you sent to Xuan Cang as a hostage? How did you get to know the girl from Tian Qian there? Could she also be a hostage sent to Xuan Cang?"

Luo Chengguan shook his head: "The hostage sent by Tianqian was also a prince, and he didn't leave alive at all."

In fact, he didn't quite understand this point.

When he first met Jiang Muyu, he saw that she was wearing the clothes of the Xuancang Palace, but Emperor Xuancang had only two princes, who were still very young.

She couldn't be a princess, nor could she be a prince's consort. So what was her identity at that time?

Moreover, he later returned to Xuan Cang to look for it, and learned that all the royal family members of Xuan Cang at that time had been killed by the King of Zhenbei who had successfully rebelled.

He thought she was dead too and was depressed for a long time.

But unexpectedly, I met her again in Tianqian.

However, according to his investigation, Jiang Muyu is the eldest daughter of the Jiang family. She was born and raised in Tiangan since childhood and has never been to Xuancang.

Luo Chengguan firmly believed that he would not recognize the wrong person, so he could not figure out what went wrong.

"Forget it. If you can't figure it out, then don't think about it." Luo Chengguan stood up.

After drinking, the cool breeze made me feel a little dizzy and I couldn't walk steadily.

Luo Huaiyang immediately supported him as he was about to fall, and said, "You always like to drink secretly even though you know that you can't drink much. If I hadn't found you in time, you would have drowned in the river tonight without anyone noticing."

Luo Chengguan pushed him and said with his neck stiff, "Who said my alcohol tolerance is average? My alcohol tolerance is very good!"

"Yes, yes, you are very good, you have a huge capacity."

Luo Huaiyang supported him with one hand as they walked towards the camp, and in the other hand he carried the remaining half-bottle of wine and his crescent-shaped sword.

Luo Chengguan half leaned on him, walking with his feet vacant.

After returning to the camp, Luo Huaiyang originally wanted to send him to another tent, but he refused and insisted on going to the tent where Jiang Muyu lived.

That was originally the tent of the commander-in-chief of Luo Chengguan. After Jiang Muyu came, he took the initiative to give it up to her to live in.

Luo Huaiyang couldn't persuade him, so he had to take him over.

In this side room, Jiang Muyu was sleeping soundly when she was awakened by a rustling noise. When she opened her eyes, she was suddenly met with a pair of amber eyes. She was so scared that her sleepiness was instantly broken.
