Chapter 214 The Prince Actually Loves Her Too
Li Runrun put down the medicine bowl, lifted the bed curtain, walked out and looked at Hu Fenghua.
Then he whispered to the maids, "Get up."
The maids all stood up.
Hu Fenghua's eyes flushed with jealousy. Seeing her haggard appearance, he finally suppressed his emotions and said, "You are weak. Go get some sleep. There are people here to take good care of you."
"It's okay, I'm sleepy so I'll just take a nap here."
Li Ruanruan placed the medicine bowl on the tray carried by the maids and instructed them, "Go find the military doctor. It's time to change the medicine."
"yes."
The maid bowed while holding the tray and slowly retreated.
Hu Fenghua sat on a chair and told the maid beside her, "Bring the porridge up."
His tone was firm and tolerant of refusal: "You haven't eaten since last night, you need to eat something."
Li Ruanruan sat back on the bed, looking at Ye Yunchu who was still in a coma, and shook her head: "I have no appetite. I will eat when I am hungry."
"If you don't eat, who will take care of him if he falls ill?"
When Hu Fenghua said this, his heart was broken.
But only when he said this would Li Runrun eat the porridge obediently.
Hu Fenghua felt a pain in his heart. When Li Runrun was eating porridge, Hu Fenghua suddenly couldn't control his emotions.
With red eyes, he asked her, "Ruanruan, am I going to lose you?"
Li Ruanruan paused while scooping the porridge. She was silent for a moment before lowering her head and saying to Hu Fenghua, "I'm sorry."
"If it were me lying there, would you do the same?"
Li Ruanruan lowered her head even lower: "Little Prince, I never looked forward to marrying you. If one day, I married you, it might be my compromise with life. But the moment he appeared, there was no compromise in my life. Do you understand?"
"What if you had met me sooner?"
"I have no idea."
Li Ruanruan thought for a moment and then said, "Maybe I won't meet him. If I hadn't followed the prince, I would have been tortured to death in the marquis' mansion. I used to be very humble and lived very cautiously. You wouldn't like me if you saw me."
"How do you know? How do you know I won't like you?"
"In fact, many of these assumptions don't exist. I never had the chance to meet you earlier."
"Then what should I do?"
"Life is long. I once loved the prince very much, but later I gave up on him."
"But you two are still together. If I give up on you, will there still be a chance?"
"there is none left."
After a pause, Li Ruanruan still lowered her head: "I'm sorry."
"I don't want to hear that."
Hu Fenghua tried to grab Li's soft hand, but Ye Yunchu on the bed over there started coughing.
Li Ruanruan turned around immediately: "My Lord."
Ye Yunchu opened his eyes, looked at Li Ruanruan, and coughed twice: "Water."
Li Runrun hurriedly poured the water she had prepared, adjusted the water temperature to warm, and handed it to Ye Yunchu's mouth.
Ye Yunchu lowered his head to drink, but frowned because of the pain from his wound.
Li Runrun drank it without hesitation and lowered her head to feed it to him.
Ye Yunchu didn't expect Li Runrun to be like this. He widened his eyes slightly, but the next moment, his Adam's apple rolled.
Li Ruanruan looked at him: "Still drinking?"
Ye Yunchu nodded.
Hu Fenghua couldn't bear to watch and walked over, taking the cup from Li Ruanruan's hand: "If you don't feed him today, I don't believe he can't drink water. If he is useless, I will feed him."
Ye Yunchu covered his lips with his uninjured hand, obviously looking very disgusted.
Hu Fenghua handed the cup of water to Ye Yunchu's mouth: "Drink."
Ye Yunchu looked at Li Ruanruan, as if complaining with his eyes that Hu Fenghua bullied him.
Li Ruanruan frowned: "Don't be so rude, don't get water on his wound, it will get infected."
"He won't die at all."
Hu Fenghua was about to pinch Ye Yunchu's chin and force him to drink the medicine, but the military doctor came and stopped this farce.
Hu Fenghua was so angry that he threw the cup down and left.
Let’s wait until Ye Yunchu wakes up.
A life-and-death game is necessary.
Either he dies or he dies!
Hu Fenghua ran out angrily and broke a bamboo as thick as a bowl with one punch.
Ye Yunchu's condition was better during the day, but he would have recurring high fever at night.
But compared to the danger of last night, he was awake tonight.
He urged Li Ruanruan: "You go to sleep, I'm fine, I'm used to it."
Li Runrun silently used alcohol to wipe Ye Yunchu's fever down, and she actually did it quite skillfully.
When Ye Yunchu's fever subsided in the late night, Li Runrun was still sleepy. She was too nervous and felt dizzy.
She knew she couldn't bear it any longer, so she had someone bring in a soft couch and slept next to his bed.
Ye Yunchu stretched out his hand.
Li Runrun saw that his fever had just subsided and he was still holding his hands out, so she scolded him to take them back.
He refused to give in.
Li Ruanruan interlocked her fingers with his for a moment, then told him coldly, "Take it back."
Ye Yunchu pinched Li's soft fingers before obediently listening to her and taking them back.
He chuckled softly, looking at Li Ruanruan, and then said, "The year you left, I thought you were dead and lost all hope. And because I suspected that your death was related to Lord Xu, I took my anger out on Xu Wan, and was punished by His Majesty."
Li Ruanruan hadn't expected something like this to happen. She was very sleepy, but she still opened her eyes and looked at him: "Isn't Xu Wan good-tempered? Don't you like her very much?"
Ye Yunchu was happy to hear her bringing up the past, but he was afraid that she would be indifferent to everything and not care about anything.
That's why he didn't know where to start.
"I was very young then. I had never loved any girl, so I didn't know the bitterness of it. Later, when I lost you, I realized that missing someone can really make life dull."
Ye Yunchu seemed to remember something before he continued, "The way he cut me was really brutal. Otherwise, how could he have sat in that position? When it comes to scheming, I'm really inferior to him. Sometimes I wonder what he's thinking. Is he trying to help me or torture me?"
After a pause, Ye Yunchu looked at Li Ruanruan and said, "But I am very grateful to Hu Fenghua, because Hu Fenghua's appearance broke the stalemate between him and me. He made you return to me."
That "he" was Xiao Jing, the current emperor, whom it was considered disrespectful to call by his name.
Li Ruanruan rested her head on the pillow for a long while. She turned sideways to look at Ye Yunchu and said, "You are indeed not as good as him. In fact, you still have many flaws."
"I overestimated myself and underestimated you."
Ye Yunchu paused before continuing, "At that time, I was seriously ill and the entire Imperial Hospital was helpless. It was he who brought your alcohol to save my life."
Ye Yunchu slowly recounted his four years.
Listening to his words, Li Runrun slowly outlined his life in the four years she was away.
Then his frown never relaxed.
He would often stay alone in the ear room, drinking a pot of wine while sipping on her things, thinking of her. He would also raise a snake that she didn't want and fatten it up.
I would paint her portrait and hang it all over the house, but it still wouldn't be enough.
I would miss her to the point of going crazy, dream about her, and then always cry when I woke up.
Li Runrun closed her eyes, with some moisture in her eyes. In fact, Ye Yunchu also loved her very much.
Just like she loved him.
The feelings she had felt many years ago were suddenly reciprocated, and Li Runrun felt a bittersweet feeling in her heart.
Finally, Ye Yunchu said, "Ruanruan, are you willing to come back with me? Let me make it up to you, okay? Xu Wan won't stand between us anymore. I will personally remove this thorn for you."
