After working non-stop all day, Su An returned home and quickly lay down on the bed to rest.
In a daze, I only felt that someone was sitting at the head of my bed.
no……???
In the middle of the night, could it be some kind of psychopathic killer?
She finally came back, and it seemed like she was about to start living a good life!
Su An shuddered and struggled to get up to protect his life, but found that his hands and feet were incredibly heavy, as if he were being crushed by a hundred-pound Hakimi, and he couldn't move at all.
He could only watch helplessly as the dark figure drew ever closer.
Before long, the shadow stopped beside her, and then a cool, soft touch came from her palm.
The man took her hand, and a familiar scent reached her nose.
Wait... is it Fu Zhun?!
Only he carried the smell of medicine that had been ingrained in him for years, as if it were pickled into his very bones.
All the chaotic thoughts were stripped away at this moment, and Su An suddenly calmed down.
Hasn't she already returned to the modern world?
How could Fu Zhun appear? Was it all a dream?
Su An was filled with doubt; this predicament of being unable to speak was truly suffocating!
She was anxious, but then she heard Fu Zhun's voice beside her.
"I was a step too slow. If I had been faster, would things have turned out differently?"
His voice was low and hoarse, filled with self-reproach and deep remorse.
No, no, no, I should thank you for bringing me back!
Su An opened his mouth in vain, but could not make a sound.
A cold, unidentified drop landed on my face, sliding down my nose to the corner of my lips.
Um?
It's salty.
A bold idea popped into Su An's mind.
Fu Zhun is probably going to cry, isn't he?
This is truly bizarre; even this icy God of Wealth has moments like this?
Su An's thoughts were a jumbled mess as she tried to open her eyes.
How could she miss the chance when Fu Zhun was so embarrassed?
Suddenly, with a strength he didn't know where it came from, Su An moved his hand and then opened his eyes with difficulty.
"Cough, cough, cough, long time no see, Da Cai—"
She forced a smile, but it looked extremely comical due to her extreme weakness.
Fu Zhun's expression was first taken aback, then turned to shock, interrupting Su An halfway through her sentence.
"Thank you, Qingfeng!"
With a sharp shout, he quickly turned his wheelchair around, leaving Su An with only his back view.
Su An quickly grabbed his loose hem of clothing, while her eyes vaguely scanned the surroundings. Good heavens, she had returned to ancient times again, and in a medical clinic!
The God of Wealth actually saved her!
"Water, I want to drink water!" Su An said, her lips twitching as if she wanted to cry.
Seeing her now looking like a normal person, Fu Zhun's dark, reddened eyes couldn't hide his astonishment.
He quickly turned his wheelchair and took the honey water that was placed on the table.
The hand with its distinct knuckles held the porcelain cup and carefully and gently fed the honey water to Su An's lips.
"Don't be greedy, just a light moisturizing is enough, you—"
He seemed to want to say something, but was interrupted by Xie Qingfeng, who rushed over after hearing the noise.
Xie Qingfeng lifted his robe and stepped into the room in a few steps, only breathing a sigh of relief when he saw Su An.
"Boss Su, you're finally awake! If you had woken up any later, I'm afraid I would have been riddled with holes by someone's gaze."
He casually complained, then immediately pressed down on Su An's pulse point.
"Your body is weak and stagnant, and your qi and blood are both deficient. Although the poison has been neutralized, the residual poison has not been cleared. You will need to take medicine for another three months. It is only thanks to that century-old ginseng that I was able to keep you alive!"
"Come on, you have the nerve to say that? That ginseng was obtained through the master's connections! And you?"
Zhou Li's equally excited voice followed closely behind, and he then peeked out from behind the door.
"Young boss, it's been a long time!"
Seeing his reaction, Xie Qingfeng scoffed and turned his gaze to Fu Zhun.
"By the way, Master, your injuries worsened after the last raid. If you want to stand up again, don't forget the medicine and acupuncture these next few days!"
Injuries?
Su An was caught off guard and stared blankly at Fu Zhun, only then noticing that he looked even more haggard than before, his handsome face was sunken, and he looked sickly.
Noticing Su An's scrutinizing gaze, Fu Zhun tilted his head slightly, his voice hoarse, "I understand, I will make the arrangements. Zhou Li, go and inform the Su family to come over, and also have the kitchen prepare some clear soup and porridge."
"Also... my injuries worsened, not because of you."
His words were an attempt to cover up his true intentions, but Su An wasn't stupid and immediately guessed what he meant.
The fact that I was able to wake up on my own must be because Fu Zhun brought back the antidote!
Those three months were incredibly difficult, as you can imagine.
A strange feeling welled up in Su An's heart.
"Big sister!"
Upon receiving the news, Su Yue was the first member of the Su family to rush over. Like a little firecracker, she crashed directly into Su An's arms, followed by Su Yan.
The two little ones started whimpering at the top of their lungs.
"Big sister, Yueyue misses you so much!"
Su Yue clung to Su An and refused to let go, crying her eyes out.
Even Su Jiang, who had been sulking, stood obediently to the side, staring at her nervously, as if afraid she would never wake up.
Su An hadn't expected to come back again. He patted her back with a heart full of emotion and comforted her with a smile.
"Yueyue, be good. Big sister is fine, isn't she?"
"It's good that you're alright! My little An, it's good that you're alright!"
