Gu Yixian smiled slightly, pressed her head against Gu Liyan's chest, gently shook her head, and said, "It's okay. I know you left me here because you wanted to keep me safe. I don't blame you."
Gu Liyan pushed Gu Yixian away, looked at her face with a pained expression, and raised his hand to stroke her face, saying, "Yiyi, you've lost weight in just a few days. It's my fault, I..."
Gu Yixian raised her hand to cover Gu Liyan's mouth and shook her head. "Xiao Li, don't say sorry or anything like that anymore. I can understand you."
Gu Liyan nodded, opened his mouth as if to say something, but suddenly his vision blurred and his body sank down.
"Xiao Li!" Gu Yixian hurriedly helped Gu Liyan up. "What happened to you?!"
The body her palm touched was unusually cold. Gu Yixian hurriedly felt Gu Liyan's pulse. The weak pulse made her tremble. It was filled with the aura of death, which made her heart sink to the bottom!
Gu Yixian stared in shock at Gu Liyan, whose face was deathly pale. What kind of inhuman treatment had he suffered during the time he was gone?! His meridians were so badly damaged, and he had been poisoned with a poison several times more potent than the one she had left behind!
"Xiao Li, you, how could you..." Gu Yixian's face changed drastically in fright. This poison was far too potent and powerful; she wasn't even 100% sure she could find the complete formula for it—
Seeing Gu Yixian's tears welling up, Gu Liyan hurriedly took out the antidote Lei Dong had given him. "Yiyi, don't worry, I'm fine... I have the antidote. Take it and you'll be alright... Don't cry..."
Seeing Gu Liyan's pale face, Gu Yixian felt heartbroken and couldn't help but shed tears. She took the antidote that Gu Liyan took out, poured out a red pill, and fed it to Gu Liyan.
The pill melted instantly in his mouth, and Gu Liyan no longer felt tired. He slowly sat up, but before he could sit up halfway, Gu Yixian pressed him back down. "Lie down!"
Gu Liyan couldn't help but smile, lying obediently in Gu Yixian's arms with a smile on his face, leaning on her shoulder.
As Gu Liyan lay comfortably in her arms, Gu Yixian gently stroked his handsome face and couldn't help but say, "Little Li, there aren't many pills left. It looks like there's only a year's supply. I plan to find some medicinal herbs to make it for you after you give birth."
Hearing Gu Yixian's serious words, Gu Liyan nodded without hesitation, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
"Also, I want to go home when it gets light to pay my respects to my mother. I hope you can come back with me..."
Gu Liyan nodded again without hesitation, "That's right. You still have relatives here, so I need to inform them. Also, I will go to your family to present betrothal gifts according to the customs of your human race, and then marry you in a grand and glorious ceremony."
Gu Yixian smiled gently and said, "That's just a formality; it doesn't have to be followed exactly. All I want is for you to be safe and healthy."
Gu Liyan raised his hand and tightly grasped Gu Yixian's hand. He could feel that Gu Yixian's love for him had reached the same level as his love for her...
Gu Liyan let out a long sigh. So now, all they could do was wait out another year...?
Suddenly, Gu Liyan noticed the ice coffin and immediately remembered something. "By the way, Yiyi, how did you wake up? Normally, you wouldn't wake up if no one woke you up..."
"Oh, it's Xiaohu. He found this place and woke me up. He also told me a lot of things I didn't know..."
As she spoke, Gu Yixian smiled and cupped Gu Liyan's face in her hands, looking at him with tender eyes and a serious expression. His purple eyes were crystal clear, revealing an innocent and pure quality.
Gu Yixian smiled slightly and said to Gu Liyan, "Xiao Li, do you know? Xiao Hu told me a story about a fool, and it was full of legendary color and touching virtues. I am now completely captivated by that fool's eyes!"
"What?" Gu Liyan looked at Gu Yixian with a puzzled expression. "Idiot? What idiot? How do you know an idiot?"
Seeing Gu Liyan's bewildered expression, Gu Yixian covered her mouth and giggled, "Look at this idiot, he doesn't even know I'm talking about him!"
Gu Liyan was taken aback, then suddenly realized and couldn't help but smile wryly, "Oh! So the idiot you were talking about was me! You've really turned bad these past few days!"
He immediately raised his hand and flicked Gu Yixian's nose, making Gu Yixian cry out that it tickled.
Suddenly, Gu Liyan sat up and tackled Gu Yixian to the ground. "Yiyi, I can't wait any longer! I want to marry you as soon as possible!"
Gu Yixian touched Gu Liyan's face and smiled gently, "Alright! Then let's bow to heaven and earth now! Heaven and earth are my witnesses, the sun and moon are my proof, today I, Gu Yixian, will marry Gu Liyan! I will become Gu Liyan's wife!"
"Haha, you're even more anxious than me!" Gu Liyan couldn't help but laugh when he saw Gu Yixian's anxious expression.
Gu Yixian suddenly fell silent, and looked at Gu Liyan with a serious expression. Then, her eyes even began to glisten with tears.
Then, Gu Yixian said, "Xiao Li, marry me! I'm afraid I won't live to see the day you marry me..."
Gu Liyan was stunned for a moment, then looked at Gu Yixian, pursed his lips, nodded and said, "Yiyi, in this life, nothing can stop me from being with you except death, and I will never abandon you again!"
Gu Yixian blinked, tears streaming down her cheeks, and nodded gently. "I know..."
I know
