Shen Shuyi was coaxed by him into taking the medicine obediently, and lay on the bed watching him use a towel to cool herself down.
The man's usually stern face showed a hint of worry. He sat on the sofa beside the bed, watching the girl fall into sleep.
Shen Shuyi opened her eyes dazedly from time to time to look at him, and then closed them again.
Ning Shitang sat closer and held her hand, "Sleep peacefully, I'm here."
"Okay..." Shen Shuyi responded and fell asleep.
Ning Shitang saw that her face was red due to fever, raised his hand and gently touched her forehead, trying to test her temperature.
Unexpectedly, the girl's face came up and pressed against his hand.
Ning Shitang's heart suddenly softened.
At night, Ning Shitang took a shower, lifted the quilt and lay down on the bed. The person on the bed had lost his fever and was sleeping soundly. His red face had returned to white.
He lay down, squeezed her little hand and closed his eyes.
Shen Shuyi felt the warmth beside him, and subconsciously leaned over, hugging him as a pillow to sleep.
Ning Shitang was almost asleep, but she kept pestering him, so he simply turned sideways and held her in his arms.
He rubbed his face against her neck and said, "Shu Yi..."
Shen Shuyi closed her eyes and raised her hand to push his head, "No."
"Shuyi, you don't want me anymore?" Ning Shitang's eyes were deep, with a hint of paranoia in them.
Shen Shuyi turned her back to him, as if she thought he was noisy.
Ning Shitang hugged her tightly from behind and kissed her cheek.
The girl's nightgown straps slipped down as she moved around, revealing her fair shoulders.
Ning Shitang kissed her shoulder and said, "I'll settle the score with you when you get better."
Chen Shuyi had actually woken up. She had slept a lot during the day, but her fever had just subsided and she didn't have much strength yet.
What's more, Ning Shitang was tired after taking care of her all day, so she fell asleep again while listening to the prompt of her favorability value rising rapidly.
Ning Shitang fell asleep contentedly holding the person in his arms.
The next day, Shen Shuyi felt the warmth of the man's palm.
She was only wearing a thin nightgown, and she could not only feel his warmth, but also the calluses on her fingers.
Ning Shitang's grip was very gentle, and he stroked for a while before getting up.
Shen Shuyi grabbed his hand, "Husband..."
"What's wrong? It's still early, you can sleep a little longer." Ning Shitang looked at the person who sat up and snuggled into his arms.
Shen Shuyi shook her head, “No, I feel sweaty and want to take a shower.”
Ning Shitang disagreed, "Your fever has just subsided, it's not advisable to take a bath so soon."
Shen Shuyi insisted, “I’ll be out in a minute, it’ll be quick.”
Ning Shitang was afraid that she would faint in the bathroom. "I'll be waiting for you outside the door. Call me if you need anything."
Shen Shuyi lay in Ning Shitang's arms, her hands moving around in front of his chest, "Okay~"
"Come down." Ning Shitang patted her butt and felt the person in his arms tremble violently.
Shen Shuyi raised her eyes and looked at him in shock, "You hit me?"
“Just a light tap.”
"Just hit him."
Seeing that she was still trying to make trouble, Ning Shitang picked her up and walked towards the bathroom.
"Shower first."
Shen Shuyi looked at the closed door, hummed softly, and took a quick shower, waiting for her to go out and deal with the man.
As a result, as soon as she left, she was carried to the dining table by the man. "You didn't eat anything yesterday, so I asked the kitchen to prepare some light meals. Try it and see if it suits your appetite."
There was lean meat porridge, some side dishes, and steamed dumplings on the table.
In addition, there is a pot of stew.
Shen Shuyi smelled the aroma and her stomach growled. She started eating with a red face.
Ning Shitang ate some with her and then said, "You can go out and have fun, but you have to wait until you're fully recovered."
"I'll be fine today!"
Chen Shu wanted to set off today, and after negotiation, the two decided to set the departure date as tomorrow.
Ning Shitang poured her a glass of water and said, "Go for a walk in the yard and then go back to rest."
Shen Shuyi narrowed her eyes and looked at him with a smile, "Brother Shitang~I feel that you are not as cold as before."
Ning Shitang coughed lightly, "You think too much."
Shen Shuyi stepped forward and took his hand, "Brother Shitang, are you free today? I still want to watch you shoot."
She thought Ning Shitang looked so handsome when he fired a gun.
Ning Shitang had already arranged the opportunity. Since he had nothing to do, he went to the back garden with Shen Shuyi to practice shooting, and told her about returning to Ningzhou City.
While shooting, Ning Shitang was still thinking about these things, so much so that his shot missed the target.
Shen Shuyi walked over, put her arms around his waist, put her face against his back and asked, "Brother Shitang, what are you thinking about?"
Ning Shitang was already used to her intimacy, so he put down his gun and hugged her back.
"Shuyi, I'm going back to Ningzhou City in three days... Are you willing to go back with me?"
"Hmm?" Shen Shuyi raised her head from his arms, puzzled, "Why do you ask that?"
"Do you still want to keep me in this village?"
Shen Shuyi's eyes rolled, "I am not your mistress, am I?!"
Ning Shitang grabbed her waist and said, "What are you thinking about?"
"You are my only woman."
"I'm just asking for your opinion, considering that your memory hasn't recovered yet."
Chen Shuyi's eyebrows curved, "I will go wherever you are, and I tell you, even if you return to Ningzhou City, you are not allowed to live in the military camp, otherwise I will follow you."
"I don't accept separation!"
Ning Shitang chuckled and pinched her nose, "So domineering?"
Shen Shuyi grabbed his hand and held it, "Humph, you are mine alone anyway. If you have other women, I will..."
"You what?"
