As Li Baobei nestled quietly in her mother's arms, she felt a slight stinging pain in her heart, which gradually intensified, making her heart ache more and more.
She suddenly stood up, feeling as if her mind had gone completely blank.
"Have I forgotten something? Why does my heart feel so heavy?"
She pounded her head with both hands, her subconscious telling her: I must remember, I must remember.
She knew perfectly well that forgetting things seemed to be very important.
Suddenly she realized that the warm environment around her had turned black, cold and damp.
The mother slowly stood up, wanting to walk into the unseen darkness in the distance.
Li Baobei tried to reach out and hold her mother's hand, but found that she had missed.
Her mother turned to look at her, her eyes as gentle as ever: "My dear, it's time for you to go."
Li Baobei cried out in despair, then knelt down weakly: "Don't leave me, please don't leave, Mom..."
He You saw that Li Baobei's body was trembling violently, so he gripped her hand even tighter.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here, Nan Nan, don't be afraid."
"mom……"
Li Baobei screamed and opened her eyes. Everything around her seemed to have gone quiet.
What came into view was He You's pale and bloodless face, and she suddenly felt as if she had been waiting for this moment for too long.
She suddenly hugged He You tightly and burst into tears, crying loudly, "My mother has left me forever, He You, please don't leave me, please, sob sob sob..."
The clear, choked sobs seemed to echo through the valley. Anji and Zhannu, who were standing in the cold wind, finally put down the stone that had been hanging in their hearts for too long, and felt as if they had been reborn in an instant.
very nice!!!
He You felt completely relieved, like an old tree that was about to wither suddenly being hit by the warmth of spring, and then began to sprout and become full of life.
He held her thin and fragile body tightly in his arms, as if afraid that she would disappear from his embrace at any moment.
She whispered gently in Li Baobei's ear, "Nannan, be good. I will never leave you, never. I will always be with you..."
They soon returned to Ning'an County, and Li Baobei lay on the bed in the inn, lost in thought.
She felt as if the spot on her right side where she had been shot by the arrow was broken; even the slightest pull caused excruciating pain.
Now, even her meals are fed by He You, bite by bite.
Thinking of He You, Li Baobei's face suddenly flushed, like the early summer sunset quietly blooming on her face.
Suddenly, as if she had just realized something, she thought, "Did Lord He already know that I was a woman disguised as a man? How embarrassing! Was he the only one foolishly playing the role?"
"I'm so embarrassed, so embarrassed!"
"This is so embarrassing!"
"It was so embarrassing to open the door like that, it was incredibly awkward."
"Lord He is indeed a qualified audience member."
Li Baobei murmured to herself.
In a moment of impulse, she reached out and pulled the blanket up to cover her feverish head.
She froze instantly, as if petrified: "Ahhhhhh!"
She felt as if the pain in her injured area had intensified.
A thin layer of sweat appeared on his forehead.
The door was suddenly opened, and He You rushed in like a gust of wind.
His eyes were red, as if they had been instantly filled with blood vessels, and his whole body seemed to be trembling slightly.
Li Baobei was startled when she saw his appearance. "What happened?"
He then said embarrassedly, "Oh, sir, what's wrong?"
He You seemed to wake from a dream, "Thank goodness she's still here."
He then said to her gently, "Are you alright? Does your wound hurt again?"
Li Baobei instantly felt the pain in her wound, and a thin mist appeared in her eyes, making them look clear and transparent: "Mmm."
He You then sat lightly on the bed and gently parted the snow-white undergarment at her neck.
I saw that the gauze covering the wound was seeping bright red blood again.
He felt a little suffocated, and his breathing became rapid. The bright red color seemed too dazzling, as if it had deeply pierced his heart, and his heart trembled with pain.
He gently covered her wound and then straightened her blanket.
She said softly, "Don't move, I'll be right back."
Li Baobei, like an obedient child, lowered her head and weakly replied, "Mmm."
She didn't dare look up at him, afraid that he would see the blush on her face.
He You then opened the door and went out.
She suddenly remembered the tenderness He You showed when changing her bandages, and her face turned even redder.
She usually had Anji come in and help her change her clothes, but when it came to changing the bandages on her wounds, He You always did it herself and never let anyone else help.
His movements were very gentle, as if he were afraid of causing her even the slightest pain.
At that time, she would gaze intently at his face, mesmerized.
His nose was high and straight, his lips were as pink as rose petals, and his sword-like eyebrows slanted into the few strands of black hair under his temples. His handsome profile had a flawless facial contour.
At times like this, Li Baobei couldn't help but murmur to herself, "What a handsome young man! I wish I could see him every day. What does it matter if I live a few years less?"
While she was still in a daze, He You had already entered the room carrying a clean white gauze.
Then they gently began to change her dressing.
He You moistened the clean white gauze with medicine and gently wiped it on her wound. "Does it hurt?"
