Is it because of... wound infection?
Once you relax, you can't hold on any longer.
As she withdrew her hand, Si Jin threw off the blanket covering her: "Come in."
Shang Linyuan was stunned for a moment, then his face turned even redder.
A fire gradually rose in her eyes; she had clearly misunderstood his meaning.
Si Jin frowned and simply pulled the silly boy back into the blankets: "You're sick and you're still thinking about that. Lie down properly."
After saying this, he got out of bed, put on his outer robe, and went to light a lamp.
But his eyesight had not fully recovered, and he groped his way forward in the night, nearly tripping twice.
It took some effort to get the light on.
He went outside and asked the disciples to brew some fever-reducing medicine.
He then moved another stool and sat back down next to Shang Linyuan.
By the candlelight, I quietly gazed at his handsome face.
Even after suddenly learning about his bizarre past and being provoked by Shang Qinghan, this silly boy still insisted on bringing back the Blood Spirit Mushroom despite his injuries.
He's only nineteen years old...
As I thought about it, I felt a little reluctant.
So he reached out and gently stroked Shang Linyuan's forehead, trying to smooth out the boy's furrowed brows.
But after just a couple of movements, my wrist was grabbed.
"Jinjin." Shang Nailang clung to him, refusing to let go, and whined and pleaded, "I was really wrong, please don't be angry with me, okay?"
Just as Si Jin was about to answer, her junior disciple brought over the medicine.
He took it, and after Xiao Yao's system scan showed no abnormalities, he helped Shang Linyuan drink the medicine and put him to sleep.
Only when the boy's breathing gradually evened out did Si, the proud and arrogant one, murmur softly, "Is he stupid? He's not angry."
"Really? You're not angry anymore, Jinjin?"
Si Jin, who thought the person was already asleep, was startled and felt a sense of defeat, as if her secret had been exposed.
Just as he was about to reprimand her, Shang Linyuan hugged him tightly: "It's good that you're not angry."
Si Jin tried to push him away, but to no avail, so she simply let him hold her and retorted, "Weren't we asleep?"
"Jinjin is angry and can't sleep." The little wolf had a fever, his whole body was like a big furnace, and his voice was hoarse.
Speaking close to the ear at this moment was unexpectedly...flirtatious.
Si Jin turned her head away: "Nonsense, go to sleep."
"Give me a kiss, then I'll go to sleep."
Si Jin warned him, "Don't push your luck!"
“Then…” Shang Linyuan pondered for a moment, “Then I admit my mistake and I will back down.”
After saying that, he quickly touched Si Jin's lips, and with the joy of successfully stealing a kiss, he shrank into the quilt and added, "I'll kiss you."
… …
Fifteen minutes later, Shang Linyuan finally fell asleep.
Perhaps he was truly exhausted, as there was even a slight snoring sound.
Exhausted, Si Jin lay back down beside him, raised her hand to create a soundproof barrier, blocking out all external noise.
But in the early morning, I was awakened by someone's gentle, light kiss.
He opened his eyes and, upon seeing Shang Linyuan, instinctively reached out to touch his forehead.
Only after confirming that he was better did I put my hand down and say, "It's not even dawn yet. If you don't have a fever anymore, get some sleep."
Shang Linyuan continued kissing her with a smile in his eyes: "Sleep later."
Because my eyes were closed, my other senses were exceptionally clear.
In addition, the poison has been mostly neutralized recently, and my sense of touch is much more sensitive than before.
Si Jin gradually reached out and wrapped her arms around the other's neck, giving him a lazy kiss.
But after a short while, his whole body stiffened again.
"Don't..." He pushed the person away, his voice trembling slightly, "Your cold hasn't gotten better yet."
"You'll feel better after you wake up."
"No, the wound isn't... um... it's not healed yet, it'll burst open."
"Then break it open." Shang Linyuan hugged her without regard for anything else and pulled Si Jin closer to him.
She nestled against his neck and kissed him for a long time, leaving a string of little strawberries on her skin, before finally managing to utter a tearful sentence.
I miss you so much, I love you so much.
