Since Su Miao had already asked this much, Lu Zhong naturally couldn't keep it a secret any longer, so he simply told her directly.
He not only told her about Shen Changji's frequent trips up the mountain, but also mentioned the medicinal ingredients.
The fact that Shen Changji went up the mountain was enough to surprise Su Miao, but when Lu Zhong mentioned the medicinal ingredient, Su Miao looked blank for a moment.
Her breath hitched for a moment, and she fell into a brief silence.
If Lu Zhong hadn't told her, she wouldn't have known that Shen Changji had gone to such lengths...
He didn't mention it once, yet he did this much for her.
Lu Zhong: "At the time, I also said it was not advisable, but General Shen insisted. He said that as long as it was you, he would probably give up anything!"
Su Miao felt very uncomfortable listening to these words.
Lu Zhong: "At the time, we were worried that your emotions would affect your addiction, so we didn't tell you. But things are different now."
To be precise, the stage that accelerated Su Miao's rapid recovery was when she heard about Liu Jiaojiao's death sentence.
If Lu Zhong's guess was correct, General Shen had also contributed a great deal to the matter.
Su Miao spent the afternoon chatting with Lu Zhong in the courtyard. After talking about her pharmacy, she saw that it was almost time and went into the kitchen.
Before going in, she specifically instructed Tao'er, "Remember to tell Lone Eagle to come over for dinner."
"good!"
Tao'er is also a sensible person.
At this crucial moment, she must ensure that the young lady and the eldest young master are in harmony and happiness!
Su Miao was still a little worried that Shen Changji wouldn't come, and was wondering whether she should change her clothes to look for him, but unexpectedly... Shen Changji appeared as promised.
Shen Changji wore a red straight-cut court robe with a white jade pendant hanging at his waist. His handsome face had a hint of indifference, his posture was upright, and his temperament was aloof and noble.
Seeing him rush over without even taking off his court robes, Su Miao couldn't help but tear up.
When Shen Changji saw Su Miao's appearance, he couldn't help but frown.
Without thinking twice, Su Miao ran straight to him and hugged him without hesitation.
Su Miao hadn't recovered for long when she threw herself at him, and Shen Changji instinctively reached out and caught her.
This subconscious action made Su Miao hug him even tighter.
She smelled the faint woody scent emanating from Shen Changji, a familiar feeling that made Su Miao's nose tingle, and tears welled up in her eyes.
Hot tears fell on Shen Changji's collarbone, and Shen Changji's gaze visibly deepened. He put his arm around her waist and gently rested his chin on the top of her head.
The sudden initiative made him even more flustered.
Su Miao trembled slightly, her voice trembling with tears: "I know everything... Shen Changji."
"Know what?"
"I know everything..."
He stood there without saying a word, but he could feel the person in his arms trembling.
Su Miao buried her face in his shoulder, clutching his clothes tightly, tears streaming down her cheeks.
"Why……"
He actually used her as a medicinal ingredient twice...
Although Su Miao was crying loudly, Shen Changji heard the three words "why".
He met Lu Zhong before leaving home today, and he probably told Su Miao everything that had happened over the years.
Shen Changji looked at Su Miao, his eyes filled with complex emotions.
Why?
If one had to ask why, perhaps it's because she's indelible in his heart.
Pei Yu saved her life and taught her medicine, which was enough for her to remember him for a lifetime. She didn't even remember him, who had met her before.
Su Miao saved him once, and he saved her once in return.
I don't expect to be like Pei Yu, someone she'll remember forever. At least, being a medicinal ingredient for her, having a slight connection with her, is enough...
He wanted to see her doing well.
He gazed at her cheek and reached out to wipe away her tears.
The fingertips were dry and burning hot; the slight touch made Su Miao raise her head.
Her long eyelashes trembled slightly, her eyes were red at the corners, and she gripped his hand tightly, her eyes shining with determination. "Chen Changji, let's... let's try, okay?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Changji saw the glint in Su Miao's eyes and felt a surge of emotions that had been suppressed deep within him.
"Is it good or not?" Su Miao asked again.
Shen Changji was also suppressing the impulse in his heart, his voice hoarse and unnatural, "Are you serious?"
His hot breath brushed against her neck, and almost every word he uttered resonated deep within her.
"real."
Su Miao answered him almost without the slightest hesitation.
Upon hearing this, Shen Changji looked at the beautiful woman so close to him, his gaze falling on her luscious lips, and couldn't help but lower his head and kiss her.
The man's powerful hormonal aura completely enveloped her.
It was only at this moment that Su Miao realized his breathing was rapid and heavy...
It seems like it's been suppressed for a long time...
The intense heat hit her face, like a faint electric current running through her, spreading to her limbs and bones, making her blood seem to scream with excitement.
Su Miao's hands unconsciously clung to his chest, having completely lost the ability to think.
The kiss moved slowly from her lips to her cheek, gently wiping away her tears...
The man's deep, husky voice lingered in her ear, "Eat first, your health is important."
The night is still long.
Su Miao's mind was hazy, and she could only let Shen Changji carry her inside.
Most of the people in the mansion were transferred in by Shen Changji, so they were all sensible enough not to come and disturb them.
Shen Changji knew before he arrived that Su Miao had prepared tonight's dinner herself.
So he ate it all, regardless of whether it tasted good or bad.
After dinner, Shen Changji went to his study because of an urgent matter.
Su Miao wisely refrained from disturbing them. She sat in front of the dressing table, looking at herself in the mirror, somewhat unable to believe what was happening before her eyes.
A long silence followed... Did that count as an agreement?
Thinking about what she had just done, a faint blush rose to her cheeks.
When Tao'er came in and saw Su Miaohuai's lovesick appearance, she couldn't help but chuckle.
"My servant said that the young master hasn't finished dealing with matters so quickly yet. Would you like to take a bath first, Miss?"
"Of course!"
Upon hearing this, Tao'er quickly went to prepare water for Su Miao.
Shen Changji finished dealing with things only after Su Miao had finished bathing.
Su Miao was still wondering if Shen Changji would stay tonight when the door was pushed open as she went out to prepare some lotus seed soup.
Shen Changji walked in, his clothes slightly open, revealing glimpses of his muscular physique, as he had just taken a bath.
Su Miao looked up and was met with this scene, the visual impact was quite striking.
Even though her ear cartilage was burning hot, Su Miao couldn't help but take a few more glances.
Shen Changji seemed to sense Su Miao's presence, and a darker look appeared in his eyes.
"you……"
Before Su Miao could finish speaking, Shen Changji approached and took her wrist.
Perhaps guessing his intention, Su Miao's face turned even redder, and she tried to pull her hand away.
But the difference in strength was too great. Shen Changji grasped her wrist and slowly moved it down her chest...
"Want to see?"
