"Yes, that's right. Since we're already here, let's take a look!" Liu Mengxian said, calming herself down.
As Liu Mengxian entered the room and looked at its furnishings, she was puzzled. "Strange, why do I feel like I've been to this room before?"
Seeing Liu Mengxian in a daze, Li Mang whispered a reminder, "Doctor, the patient is over here."
"I know!" Liu Mengxian said irritably.
Li Mang pointed to Gu Liyan, who was lying on the bed covered with a blanket, and said, "Doctor, this is the Commander's junior brother."
When Liu Mengxian saw the so-called patient on the bed, she froze on the spot.
"Little, Little Li?!"
Seeing that Liu Mengxian was standing still, Li Mang knew that the Liu family's medical practice rules did not allow outsiders to be present, so he hurriedly said, "I'll wait outside, please."
After Li Mang left, Liu Mengxian hurried to Gu Liyan's bedside, grabbed his hand, and asked anxiously, "Xiao Li, what's wrong? Say something, are you alright?"
Gu Liyan kept his eyes tightly closed and showed no signs of waking up. Seeing that Gu Liyan's breathing was weak, Liu Mengxian hurriedly said, "Little Li, if you are still angry with me because of that matter, I apologize to you. I will go to the royal city and bring them back. I will do anything as long as you wake up! Wake up!"
Seeing Gu Liyan's pale face, weak pulse, and shallow breathing, Liu Mengxian thought something had happened to him and burst into tears.
Gu Liyan frowned slightly, as if waking from a dream, his body trembled slightly, and he slowly opened his eyes to look at Liu Mengxian in front of him. In an instant, his eyes became more alert...
Seeing Gu Liyan wake up, Liu Mengxian smiled through her tears, "Little Li, you're alive, that's wonderful, you're alive..."
Gu Liyan opened his mouth, his throat aching terribly, but he still managed to speak weakly, "Xiao Bai... I just dreamt that you came back... and when I opened my eyes I found... it seems like you really came back..."
Gu Liyan closed his eyes and said weakly, "I don't want to open my eyes again. What if when I open them again... you're not here again... and I can't find you again..."
Liu Mengxian held Gu Liyan's hand tightly. "No, Liyan, I won't go anywhere. I'll stay here with you until you recover!"
Gu Liyan felt something was wrong when he heard Liu Mengxian's words. He opened his eyes again, looked at Liu Mengxian, felt the warmth of her hand, his pupils contracted slightly, and he opened his mouth to ask, "I...I'm not dreaming?"
“You’re not dreaming! I’m here with you!” Liu Mengxian said, wiping away her tears.
Gu Liyan's expression suddenly changed. He abruptly pulled his hand back, staggered to his feet, and pointed angrily at Liu Mengxian, shouting, "You... get out!"
Upon hearing Gu Liyan's words, Liu Mengxian froze on the spot, looking at him in disbelief. "Little...Little Li? What did you say?"
"Get out! I told you to get out!" Gu Liyan frowned, his chest wound throbbing with pain. He clutched his chest with one hand and roared, "Get out of here! I don't want to see you!"
Liu Mengxian shuddered in fright, feeling as if Gu Liyan was possessed by Mo Han. However, seeing Gu Liyan sweating profusely, despite her own hurt feelings, she bravely went to comfort him, saying, "Little...Little Li, don't be angry, I'm here to treat your illness..."
"No need! Get out of here now!" Gu Liyan's chest heaved as he pointed coldly at the door, "Don't make me say it a third time!"
Liu Mengxian's eyes welled up with tears, and she said aggrievedly, "Xiao Li, if you still blame me for driving Meng Zhong and the others away, you can hit me and scold me as you please. Can you let me heal your injuries first? Once you're better, you can hit me, scold me, and do whatever you want with me, okay?"
After saying that, Liu Mengxian tugged at Gu Liyan's sleeve, pleading pitifully.
Gu Liyan's face darkened. If his Xiaobai were to act so coquettishly, he would naturally be unable to resist and would choose to forgive her directly.
However, the woman in front of you is just a wolf in sheep's clothing. Although she has the same face as Xiao Bai, her heart is poisonous!
"Please leave, I don't want to...see you again!" Gu Liyan turned his head away and refused to look at Liu Mengxian again.
Tears streamed down Liu Mengxian's face uncontrollably. Watching Gu Liyan's resolute departure, she gazed at him longingly, hoping he would change his mind. But a minute passed, then two. They remained like this for what seemed like an eternity, one staring intently at the other, the other ignoring him completely. Finally, Liu Mengxian broke down, choking back tears as she said, "I...I won't go too far. I'll definitely come back when you need me! I'll wait for you..."
Liu Mengxian choked back tears as she said, "I'll wait for you to punish me!" Then, she ran out the door.
Gu Liyan opened his eyes, which were lifeless and filled with despair...
Li Mang listened to their conversation from outside the door but didn't dare to come in. A moment later, Liu Mengxian ran out crying. Li Mang was startled and asked anxiously, "What happened? Did something happen to Mo Li?"
Liu Mengxian shook her head, sobbing, "He doesn't need me, he doesn't want me... Waaah..."
"Huh?" Li Mang looked at Liu Mengxian in confusion, not understanding the relationship between the two. After thinking for a moment, he decided it would be better to check on Gu Liyan.
Entering the room, seeing Gu Liyan's gloomy face and seemingly in a bad mood, he cautiously asked, "Brother Mo, did you and that doctor have a fight?"
Gu Liyan seemed exhausted from sitting and leaned weakly against the headboard. He slowly lowered his head, beads of sweat dripping from his forehead and down his cheek. He slowly opened his mouth and spoke in a hoarse voice, "I had no arguments, no fights, and no fate with her!"
Li Mang didn't understand Gu Liyan's meaning, so he cautiously asked, "Then you don't need her to treat you? Or should I invite the military doctor over?"
Gu Liyan frowned, opened his mouth as if to say something, but then coughed up a mouthful of blood, instantly staining the quilt red. He collapsed weakly against the bedside. Li Mang was startled and rushed over to support Gu Liyan. "Brother Mo, how are you? I'll go and call the doctor in!"
