"I... I don't like her at all! She's stupid and clumsy, and her cooking is always burnt!" Gu Liyan stammered.
Over the past few days, Liu Mengxian has learned that while she is good at taking care of him, she is completely inept at small tasks such as laundry and cooking, often producing culinary disasters that are difficult to swallow.
Li Mang chuckled, "If you don't like Miss Liu, why did Brother Mo take a bullet for her at the crucial moment?"
"I..." Gu Liyan was speechless for a moment.
Yes, he already knew that Liu Mengxian had killed someone, so how could he still protect her?
He must have been reminded of Hua Baixian, whom he longed for, when he saw Liu Mengxian!
Gu Liyan's back wound started to ache, the stinging pain making him realize his true feelings; he seemed to have really fallen for that woman...
"Where did she go?" Gu Liyan asked.
"It seems you left with the main force this morning, right? I heard the Liu family sent a medic team to the capital. The capital is in chaos right now. Your senior brother drove away the snake people, but it's become a poison city, shrouded in poisonous fog from the inside out..."
Before Li Mang could finish speaking, Gu Liyan excitedly grabbed him, "Why would she go to the royal city when it's so dangerous? Why didn't you stop her?!"
Li Mang awkwardly began, "I... I'm not familiar with her..."
Gu Liyan's face was gloomy, but he kept complaining, "This stupid woman thinks she can go to the royal city just because she has developed an antidote? Doesn't she know that I helped her develop the antidote? Without me, what earth-shattering medicine does she think she can develop? What an idiot!"
Li Mang looked at Gu Liyan and didn't dare to interrupt. Gu Liyan was like a dumped, resentful woman, and no one dared to mess with him!
Gu Liyan glared at Li Mang and said, "Come tonight and take me out! I want to go to the royal city!"
"Huh?" Li Mang looked at Gu Liyan in surprise. "You want to go to the royal city? No way, those people outside definitely won't let you leave!"
Gu Liyan smiled. "That's why I asked you to come tonight!"
Li Mang looked at Gu Liyan with a puzzled expression...
Late at night, Li Mang arrived at Gu Liyan's residence with a pile of books.
"What are you doing here so late?" Liu An asked, frowning.
"Mo Li told me during the day that he had insomnia and was just about to read a book to relieve his boredom. He wrote down a few book titles for me to find, and now I've searched all the bookstores in the city to finally get them all," Li Mang chuckled. "Didn't you see the light is still on? He must be having trouble sleeping again!"
Liu An frowned, flipped through the book in Li Mang's hand, and nodded after confirming that everything was correct. "Let's go in!"
Li Mang went inside and didn't come out for a long time. Sometimes he didn't even greet Liu An, but instead left in a hurry...
