A cold glint flashed in Dugu Han's eyes. Who had spread this news to her?
Who else in Medicine King Valley enjoys gossiping like this?
When Ah Li saw that no one answered, she called out again, "Junior Brother?"
Dugu Han looked up at Ah Li and said, "Indeed, two people came seeking medical help, but they couldn't accept the rules of Medicine King Valley, so I didn't let them in."
At this moment, Ah Li reached out and removed a petal of some kind of flower that had fallen on Dugu Han's head, saying, "If you can't accept it, then don't treat it. We can't break the rules of the valley."
"Um."
Dugu Han quietly watched as Ah Li held the flower petal that had been taken from his head. He had just thought his senior sister was going to pat his head again.
"By the way, junior brother, are there many people missing from my courtyard?"
Ahri held the petals in her hand and looked around.
It wasn't that many people were missing, but rather that the people who were originally responsible for tending to the herbs in the courtyard had all disappeared.
Dugu Han pulled Ah Li's skirt down a bit, lowered his eyes and said, "Some of them said they wanted to leave, and some said their three-year term as slaves had expired. Since they wanted to leave, I didn't stop them."
Ah Li nodded and said in a low voice, "I'm thinking of going outside the valley later to see if there are any handsome young men willing to come in."
Dugu Han's expression turned cold, but he still asked gently, "Why does Senior Sister want a handsome young man?"
Ah Li moved closer to Dugu Han, resting her head against his chest and inhaling the faint scent of sandalwood emanating from him. She said, "Ever since that day, I sometimes feel an unbearable itch. I miss the feeling of that day, but I'm worried that my junior brother will think I'm being nosy. So I'm thinking of raising a handsome young man to relieve that itch."
Upon hearing Ah Li's words, Dugu Han's breath hitched, his heart tightened, and his eyes turned red with desire. He had assumed that his senior sister did not like it, so he had not dared to ask any questions these past few days.
"Senior sister, why don't you ask me if I'm willing first?"
Dugu Han's voice was extremely low, close to Ah Li's ear, and there was a hint of heat in his breath.
"Would you be willing, junior brother?"
Before Ah Li could even look up, Dugu Han had already picked her up and carried her straight into the house.
A moment later, Ah Li's startled cry echoed from inside the house.
This time, Dugu Han wasn't worried about hurting anyone like he was last time. He didn't suppress or restrain himself; instead, he passionately and intensely entangled with the other person.
The stars in my mind had just formed when they were blown away by a gust of wind; I could neither reach the summit nor fall down.
Dugu Han pressed Ah Li's feet tightly against his side and said, "Senior Sister, do you like me? Do you like me treating you like this now?"
Ah Li's mind was blank. She bit her lower lip, hugged the person tighter, and said, "Junior brother, what exactly are we?"
Dugu Han lowered his voice further and further, "Senior sister, don't you feel anything? I love you, and I want to marry you."
He thought he and his senior sister would always be like this, guarding Medicine King Valley together.
After helping his senior sister to counteract the effects of the drug, he felt it wasn't enough, far from enough. He wanted to take his senior sister under his wing, protect her, and be entangled with her like this, never to be separated again.
However, after their first time making love, when she saw him again, she was very calm, as if he was just someone who had saved her, a doctor. She didn't feel any of the shyness or love that a woman should have.
She just said she wanted to raise a handsome young man, how could that be!
He's not dead yet.
Now, he wants to teach his senior sister how to love him, and he also wants to leave a mark on her heart, so that she will always have him in her heart.
