Chapter 388 Remember Her Love
An Yan did not answer this. She washed all the herbs and then started to boil them together, saying, "I'm still missing a few herbs, but there's nothing I can do. The conditions are limited. Fortunately, it doesn't matter." After that, she cut her finger a little and let two drops of blood fall into it.
"Why do you treat him like this? Who is he to you?" asked the old woman.
"My friend, how can I stand by and watch someone die without helping?" An Yan replied.
"I don't quite believe it." said the old woman.
An Yan naturally wouldn't tell her the truth, and just said, "We're really just friends." Then she continued to fan herself with her hands, hoping that the medicine would take effect quickly, as Li Rongsen was afraid that he couldn't wait any longer.
The old woman laughed and said, "I don't believe that an ordinary friend would bleed to save him."
An Yan didn't say anything. She thought there was no need to explain further. Just let it be.
"Where is this?" Li Rongsen's voice came from the room.
An Yan quickly said to the old woman, "Grandma, please keep an eye on the medicine for me. I'll go in and see him." After saying that, she walked over to him.
Li Rongsen was indeed awake. He struggled to get up, but found himself completely powerless. Seeing An Yan walk in, he couldn't help but feel puzzled. He asked, "You..."
"Don't talk anymore, save your energy, and talk after you drink the medicine." An Yan said as she lifted up his upper body and placed a soft cushion behind him.
Li Rongsen could feel that he was very weak, and even breathing was painful.
"Just be patient. I've already prepared some medicine outside. You'll be fine after drinking it." After saying that, An Yan walked out to the corridor again.
The old woman said to An Yan, "You stay inside and watch over him. I can also make medicine."
"It's okay, I'll do it." An Yan sat down next to the old woman, took the fan from her hand and started fanning herself. She didn't know what to say to Li Rongsen inside, so it would be better for her to come out and look after the medicine.
Li Rongsen in the room was very confused. He remembered that he had just fought with several guards and then fell into a coma. He actually met An Yan and didn't know if he was dreaming.
After a cup of tea, the herbs were finally boiled. An Yan quickly poured them into a bowl, blew them cool with a spoon, and then walked over to Li Rongsen and said, "Come, drink the medicine first."
Li Rongsen wanted to pick up the bowl himself but found that he had no strength and could not lift his hands at all.
"Come, I'll feed you." An Yan said as she fed him with a spoon.
Li Rongsen stopped pretending and drank it mouthful by mouthful. When he had only drunk half a bowl, he felt his body warming up and felt much better than before. So he raised his hand to take the bowl and drank the rest of the mouthful.
An Yan took the empty bowl from his hand, then lifted his wrist to feel his pulse and said, "We still need to go collect herbs so that we can consolidate it."
"That's enough. Just wait for him to recover slowly. Why bother taking the risk to collect herbs again?" The old woman said as she walked into the house.
"It's very dangerous for him to do this. He needs to eat the Soul-Binding Grass again to be safe." An Yan said.
The old woman twitched her lips slightly and said, "Anyway, I have already reminded you, so you can think about it yourself."
Li Rongsen said: "Yan Qingqiu and I have been looking for you."
"Ordinary people can't find my place. If you hadn't fought with them and caught my attention, I really wouldn't have known you were here." An Yan explained to him.
"We've been here for several days but haven't found you. Yan Qingqiu is very anxious." Li Rongsen told her.
An Yan nodded and asked again: "Where is he now?"
"I acted separately from him, he should be safe." Li Rongsen replied.
"You shouldn't have come. Nothing will happen to me. I will go out on the right day." An Yan said softly, but she was still quite moved.
"He was very worried about you. He was afraid that you would suffer here, so he insisted on coming to take you away."
An Yan nodded slightly.
"Such a good man, who thinks about you wholeheartedly, how come you don't understand his heart." Li Rongsen took the opportunity to act as Yan Qingqiu's lobbyist.
An Yan was stunned for a moment, then said, "Rest well, we'll talk again tomorrow when you feel better."
"We must tell Yan Qingqiu as soon as possible and leave here early." Li Rongsen said.
At this time, the old woman was heard saying, "I advise you not to dream this dream. People from the future don't know which way to come, and those who come in here can't leave."
"What do you mean?" Li Rongsen asked her.
"You can't go back. There is a boundary here. No one can find you, and no one can get out." The old woman advised him to give up the idea of going out.
"Of course not. I have a lot of things to do over there."
"I'll find a way." An Yan advised him not to worry.
Li Rongsen frowned and said, "When my injury heals, we can try the Breakthrough Knot."
An Yan did not answer, and the old woman went into the house and prepared to go to bed.
Since An Yan came here, she divided the inner room into two parts. The innermost part is where the old woman sleeps, while An Yan sleeps in the outer room. Now that Li Rongsen has occupied her bed, she can only lean on the table.
Li Rongsen didn't sleep well that night and woke up from time to time. He felt a little embarrassed when he saw An Yan leaning against the table. He looked around and found that there was no other place to sleep except the couch where he was sleeping. So he got up and walked over to her, calling her: "An Yan. An Yan"
An Yan raised her eyes to look at him, and instinctively raised the back of her hand to touch Li Rongsen's forehead, and asked again: "What's wrong, are you feeling unwell?"
The dim candlelight made An Yan's eyes appear even gentler, and the anxious look on her face was clearly illuminated. Li Rongsen couldn't help but feel guilty. He said, "You go sleep over there. I'll sit here."
"You are a patient, so naturally you should sleep. Go ahead and don't argue with me." An Yan motioned him over.
Li Rongsen said, "This is not what a man should do. Go."
An Yan blinked and said, "My legs are numb. Can you help me over?"
Li Rongsen felt that this was not very convenient. After all, men and women should not be intimate with each other, not to mention that this was the woman his good friend liked. After thinking it over, he said, "Can you hold my arm? Can we walk like this?"
An Yan grabbed his arm and walked towards the bed, and just as she reached the edge, she pushed Li Rongsen onto the bed.
Li Rongsen was startled and instinctively wanted to get up, but found that his whole body could not move. He saw An Yan had covered him with the quilt, and while taking his pulse, she touched his forehead.
Somehow, Li Rongsen felt very nervous, especially when she came closer, as if he was a woman.
But An Yan did not do anything excessive. She tucked the quilt in for him and said, "Sleep well. Don't be embarrassed." Then she went back to the table and lay down.
Li Rongsen glanced at her sideways, his heart filled with a mess of emotions, as if he had some understanding of why Yan Qingqiu was so obsessed with her.
The next day, it was dawn.
An Yan first went to the well to fetch water, and then went to the small house nearby to cook porridge. She planned to fry some peanuts today.
The old woman had also woken up. She walked over to Li Rongsen and asked him, "How do you feel now?"
"Much better." Li Rongsen replied. He finally had the strength back.
"In that case, you should persuade her not to take risks again. She has been discovered stealing medicinal herbs for you. If she goes again today, she will probably lose her life. The people in there are not easy to deal with." The old woman felt that she could not persuade An Yan, so fortunately she let this man persuade her.
Li Rongsen was startled. He didn't expect such a thing to happen and just nodded.
The old woman continued, "I think she treats you well, but I don't know how you treat her. She bled you to save your life. You must remember this kindness and don't betray her."
"What blood?"
"Without her blood as a medicine, do you think you could have recovered so quickly?"
Li Rongsen took a deep breath, feeling mixed emotions.
