Yi Chenli learned about An Yuan'er's illness two days ago, and since then, he has been sitting by the window without moving.
All the lovesickness Yi Chenli experienced in his life came from An Yuan'er.
She had only been gone for a few days, yet she had already made him lose all motivation to do anything.
I was extremely anxious and all that remained was worry.
Every urge in my body was screaming for me to go see her, to stay by her side as I had done so many times when she was sick.
With her pampered nature, she is most afraid of getting sick. She doesn't like to take medicine, and when she gets sick, she likes to make a fuss and has to be coaxed.
But he'd already driven her away, so how could he...?
They had clearly made such a big decision.
On the first day, he could still bear it, but on the second day, she not only did not get better, but became even more ill than before.
Amidst his anxiety, Yi Chenli felt mostly anger.
Are all the people in the An family useless? So many of them can't cure her. What good are they?!
She fell ill as soon as she got home. She was perfectly fine when she was in Chenyang Palace.
While An Yuan'er was sick, she was in pain, which also tormented Yi Chenli.
The whole day felt so long. Yi Chenli waited from dawn until late at night.
She was angry with him; she refused to forgive him, nor would she let herself off the hook.
After two days of agonizing waiting, Yi Chenli still lost; he lost to her.
How could he possibly be so heartless as to treat her like this? Yi Chenli couldn't deceive his own heart at all.
That beautiful girl, who should have blossomed under the blazing sun, must not wither in the cold wind. Yi Chenli would not allow her to do so. He was able to save her seven years ago, and he could do the same this time.
Yi Chenli finally moved his body away from the window.
"Master, what's wrong?"
After not speaking for several days, Yi Chenli's voice was a little hoarse: "I'm going to see her."
She was waiting for him.
He was already too late.
Although the palace gates were tightly closed, Yi Chenli would always find a way out if he wanted to. He scaled the eaves and walls, passing through layers of palace walls, and arrived at the place his heart longed for.
Guoguo waited quietly at the door. Yi Chenli did not disturb her and nimbly climbed in through the window.
Yi Chenli spotted the girl by the bedside at a glance. As if by telepathy, An Yuan'er was murmuring again, "A-Li, A-Li..."
She didn't wake up; she just instinctively called out that name. That name that had haunted her heart for the past few nights.
These calls softened Yi Chenli's heart completely.
He approached the bedside and took the girl's hand. Her hand was very cold, so he insisted on warming it by rubbing it.
When she was a child, she loved playing in the snow, and her hands would always be icy cold afterward. Back then, she would grab his hand, look at him with bright, pitiful eyes, and say, "Yi Chenli, my hands are so cold."
That coldest boy had the warmest hands. As long as he warmed her hands, An Yuan'er was no longer afraid of winter.
Yi Chenli touched An Yuan'er's forehead; it was frighteningly hot.
His voice carried a hint of heartache: "Roundball, you weren't smart to begin with, and now that your brain is damaged, you're going to become even dumber."
An Yuan'er was ill, so naturally she couldn't give Yi Chenli a response.
If she were awake, she would definitely jump up and shout, "Yi Chenli, Yuan'er isn't stupid at all. If I were stupid, how could I have chosen someone as smart as you so early on?"
The dumbest girl is saying the silliest love words in the world.
