"Don't speak yet, let me finish. Yi Yi, you and Chen Dudu are good friends, but only good friends. He can't and shouldn't risk his life for you. You already have Mu Nanxun, so give Dudu to me."
"..."
What's the meaning?
"Yu'er, you...you mean, you like Dudu..." Yi Yi was shocked. She hadn't expected that Yu'er, who had grown up with her since childhood, would like Chen Dudu? She hadn't noticed at all all these years.
Upon hearing this, Yu'er's face flushed slightly, a rare occurrence. She liked Chen Dudu, and had always liked her.
"So, could you please keep your distance from Dudu from now on and try to see him as little as possible? Do you know that he did this to save you..."
"What's wrong with saving me?"
Yu'er opened her mouth, but didn't continue, instead changing the subject. "It's nothing, just remember, don't let him do those dangerous things for you again. We'll still be good friends, okay?"
What else could Yi Yi say? They were both her best friends, and it would be wonderful if they could be together. She would be happier than anyone else.
"Okay, I promise you, I'll be more careful in the future."
With Yi Yi's approval, Yu'er breathed a sigh of relief and quickly ran to catch up with Chen Dudu, panting. "Wait for me, Dudu."
"What did you just say to Yi Yi?" Chen Dudu asked without stopping. Even though he tried his best to appear normal, a closer look revealed that he was walking with a slight limp.
Yu'er was both angry and anxious. "He didn't say anything. Dudu, slow down! Your leg was bitten by a crocodile and almost ruined. It was just bandaged up. Walking so fast will cause it to split open again..."
"Shh...keep your voice down." Chen Dudu hurriedly stopped her, afraid that Yi Yi would hear what she was saying.
"I really don't understand you. You almost lost a leg to save Yi Yi, but you didn't tell her anything and acted like nothing happened."
"Don't talk nonsense, I only suffered minor injuries. I won't tell, and you're not allowed to tell her either."
He didn't expect anything from doing these things. If Yi Yi knew, it would only add to her troubles.
What an idiot. Yu'er thought to herself, feeling a pang of sadness.
“Dudu, I understand you didn’t tell Yi Yi about this so she wouldn’t worry. But what about the other thing? Why didn’t you tell her either, and even lied to her that the medicine was for you? That medicine was clearly…”
"Don't say anything more." Chen Dudu suddenly felt guilty. After a long while, she murmured softly, "Let me be selfish this once. I'll tell her in a few days."
He meant no harm; he was just worried that if he told her, her heart would immediately fly to that other person. He didn't expect to possess her; he just wanted to keep her by his side for a few more days.
That's all.
"Brew another bowl of that medicine for him."
"Don't worry, I will."
How is he doing today?
"He's doing pretty well, getting better every day. I believe he'll wake up in the next few days. Dudu, why did you go to so much trouble to save him?"
Yu'er sighed inwardly, feeling sorry for Chen Dudu, and at the same time, feeling sorry for herself.
If you don't say something now, the other person may never know how she feels.
Thinking of this, Yu'er mustered her courage, quickened her pace, and circled around to Chen Dudu, looking at him with a serious expression. "Dudu, I have something to tell you. It's very serious."
