Chapter 284 You have me in your heart, right?
Ah Man bandaged Lu Xiang's wound and changed her into clean clothes.
Doctor Miao then took her pulse.
"You moved violently again after treating the wound. It's a sign of worsening. I'll ask the servant to make some medicine for you. Take it and have a good rest. We can talk about everything tomorrow morning."
Ah Man wanted to say no, but then she thought that if she didn't recover from her injuries, how could she take good care of the young lady, so she nodded and agreed.
On a morning in early summer, the sunlight shines through the white cotton window paper, as thin as a layer of light glass gauze, soft and light.
On the bed, Lu Xiang moaned softly and slowly opened his eyes.
Looking at the unfamiliar place, her expression suddenly froze and she subconsciously wanted to sit up.
When she moved, she pulled the wound and gasped in pain.
Fortunately, it hurts, which means I am still myself.
Lu Xiang was really afraid that he would wake up in a different body.
After a night's rest, Ah Man came to Lu Xiang's bed early in the morning. When she heard her voice, she was immediately surprised.
"Miss, you're awake!"
"A'man." Lu Xiang called out and found his throat dry.
Ah Man helped Lu Xiang sit up, then stuffed a pillow behind her back and poured her a glass of warm water.
"Miss, drink some water first."
Lu Xiang took the cup, took a sip and asked nervously: "What about the Eighth Prince? How is he?"
Ah Man: "Your Highness is a little seriously injured, but his life is not in danger, Miss, don't worry."
After hearing this, Lu Xiang's tense mood finally relaxed.
Thinking of the danger last night, Lu Xiang's expression relaxed for a moment, and then a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Since she is still alive, she should cherish everything she has now.
She had to admit that even though she tried hard to close her heart, Chu Jinyan, the big-tailed wolf, had already quietly occupied her heart, but she just didn't dare to get close.
I’m afraid of making the same mistakes as in my previous life and being smashed to pieces once again.
But there is probably no one else in this world who is willing to sacrifice his life for her.
Thinking of this, Lu Xiang threw back the quilt and got out of bed. As soon as she moved, the wound on her chest hurt so much that she broke out in a cold sweat.
"Miss, what are you doing?"
"I'll go take a look." At this moment, what she wanted to do most was to take a look at Chu Jinyan.
Ah Man: "Your injury..."
Lu Xiang sat down and took a break, then smiled and shook his head: "Since he is not dead, this injury is nothing. I will walk over slowly."
Seeing Lu Xiang's insistence, Ah Man pursed her lips and supported her: "I will support you."
"I'm fine, but you're also badly injured, don't let the wound open any wider."
"I have thick skin and flesh, so this injury is nothing." Ah Man said, "Compared to the young lady's bravery and decisiveness, I was unable to save her. I am really ashamed."
Lu Xiang took slow steps and said softly, "Silly girl, what nonsense are you talking about? If you hadn't shot that arrow so accurately, we wouldn't have been able to escape so quickly. You saved me."
Before she fainted, she saw Ah Man running into the temple with a bow and arrow on her back, and she knew that it was she who shot and killed the person who held her hostage.
Ah Man was silent. This time she realized that her skills were not enough to fight ten people at the same time. She was blind in the past. She had to be stronger in the future.
If the young lady had not decisively stabbed herself in the chest with the hairpin, stunning those people for a moment, she would never have found the chance to shoot that arrow.
"I haven't returned home all night. Yunzhe and Wuyue must be very worried. I don't know if grandma knows that I haven't returned. Ah Man, can you still go and report back to the mansion that you are safe?"
Ah Man nodded and said, "Doctor Miao is one of us. I will borrow a carriage from him in a while. It won't affect the wound."
Lu Xiang: "I can't hide the fact that I was injured. Go and tell grandma clearly and ask her to cover it up for me. At least don't let too many people know about it."
"Yes, miss." Ah Man replied.
Chu Jinyan was later assigned to live in the room next to Lu Xiang.
At this time, Sheng Xian was guarding the door.
"Third Miss." Sheng Xian bowed to Lu Xiang when he saw her.
Lu Xiang nodded gently: "How is your highness?"
Sheng Xian said: "He had a high fever in the second half of the night. Doctor Miao spent the whole night trying to find a way to cool him down. In the morning, his forehead wasn't that hot anymore. Doctor Miao said the fever would go away in a day at most."
Lu Xiang's heart tightened when he heard this: "Can I go in and see His Highness?"
Sheng Xian hurriedly opened the door for Lu Xiang and then stepped aside.
Others may not be able to enter, but the third young lady can definitely enter.
Maybe after seeing the miserable condition of His Highness, the Third Miss' heart softened and she pledged her love to him?
"Please come in, Miss Third." Sheng Xian half bent over and made a servile gesture of invitation.
Ah Man stood beside Lu Xiang and said earnestly, "Miss, take care of your wound. I will be back soon."
Lu Xiang chuckled and said, "Go ahead, and be careful."
Then he went into the house.
When Sheng Xian saw Ah Man leaving, he hesitated for a moment and then followed him out.
"Ah Man, where are you going? You are still injured."
"Go back to the Lu family and tell the old lady that you are safe."
"I'll take you there."
Ah Man looked at Sheng Xian speechlessly and said, "You don't need to send me off. I'm not a useless person."
Sheng Xian: “…”
This unromantic girl!!!
Lu Xiang walked past the flower and bird screen and saw Chu Jinyan lying on the bed with his eyes closed.
His face was extremely pale, and his long eyelashes covered his eyes that were as charming as spring flowers. His sickly appearance did not affect his stunningly delicate features.
Lu Xiang moved an embroidered stool to the side of the bed and sat down.
Her gaze slowly moved down from Chu Jinyan's handsome eyebrows and eyes.
There were layers of bandages wrapped inside the slightly open collar of his shirt, and one could tell how serious the arrow wound was without even looking.
Lu Xiang felt a slight pain in his chest and his eyes turned red.
She held Chu Jinyan's hand that was stretched out from under the quilt, and her broad palm was slightly hot.
"How stupid! You jumped into a trap even though you knew it was a trap. How can I live on if you really die?"
Lu Xiang lowered his eyes and murmured softly.
As soon as she finished speaking, she felt a force in her hand, and Chu Jinyan's big hand tightly held her words back.
Lu Xiang was startled and looked up suddenly.
What he met were Chu Jinyan's crystal-clear black eyes, which were like flowing brilliance and like feathers falling into the mortal world, making people's heart palpitate.
"You..." woke up.
As soon as Lu Xiang said a word, Chu Jinyan spoke first: "Am I dreaming?"
"What dream?"
"You said that if I died, you wouldn't be able to live." Chu Jinyan's mouth slowly curled up into a touching smile: "Xiangxiang, you said this, which proves that you have me in your heart, right?"
He was eager to get affirmation and looked at Lu Xiang without blinking. His scorching gaze made Lu Xiang's ears slightly hot.
She subconsciously tried to pull her hand away, but Chu Jinyan held it even tighter.
After waiting so long for Lu Xiang's affection, only a fool would give her a chance to back out at this moment. Who knows if letting go of him would scare away the sincerity that she had worked so hard to show.
