【Chen Zixi×You】For your first love, you decided to become a doctor 2
Perhaps Chen Zixi had never seen you so calm yet tinged with madness before. He was stunned for a long time before coming to his senses. He sighed helplessly: "I know, I understand... I also feel sorry for you. You have to bear so much at such a young age, and now you have to bear the responsibility of me, your patient."
You always feel like he seems to have misunderstood something - your feelings for him are not just a lonely sustenance or a patient who deserves your attention. However, this matter is also a little difficult to explain, so you don't dwell on it anymore, just reminding him: "If I hear you trying to persuade me to leave again, don't blame me for drugging you."
Chen Zixi: "..." He still wanted to try harder, and said weakly: "I should be able to smell it if you drugged me..."
You nodded without surprise: "If you don't want to drink it, I'll light your Xue Dao and feed you."
Chen Zixi didn't know if he was frightened by you, he said obediently: "I know."
You haven't actually neglected your practice, nor have you forgotten to take revenge.
There are many Xiujinlou strongholds in the Jiangnan area. You carry your fan and search for them. When you find one, you kill it. With one move, you send the opponent flying into the air, and then pierce their neck with the closed fan. The fan Chen Zixi gave you is indeed very useful. Even if you kill someone with this skill, you can still kill them without leaving any blood.
After killing everyone, you start searching for clues in the strongholds, but after attacking several strongholds, you find nothing useful. You decide to kill more people in the future and not count on clues.
At first, Chen Zixi didn't realize what you were doing when you went out, until one day, he found a little blood on your sleeve. The blood was not obvious on the dark blue sleeve, and it would be impossible to see it without careful observation.
He glanced at it a few times and determined that it was splashed, and the splash angle was also very familiar. He had used this move to kill many people in his early years, and he could tell it at a glance. While sighing at the little girl's improvement in martial arts, he could hardly suppress his heartache for you.
How many deaths have you witnessed to be able to use this move so nonchalantly? Based on his understanding of you, you should use ranged attacks more often. Even if you throw a fan, the feeling of killing someone in an instant is far less intense.
But he didn't know that you were just pursuing that feeling at that moment. When the person in Xiujinlou was cut to death by your hand, you could briefly forget the figure of Brother Dao falling down.
When you went out again, Chen Zixi followed you.
His Qinggong skills were better than yours, and you didn't notice it at first. But after walking for a while, you noticed it. You didn't expose him, and you felt that you could protect him.
Then Chen Zixi saw you slaughtering people with an expressionless face, and you could even deal with four or five enemies at the same time without being at a disadvantage. After just a few moves, your fan would pierce the opponent's throat, and then you would casually shake off the blood.
...When he gave you the fan, he thought about using a fan that is resistant to stains, but he really didn't think you would use it like this.
It's easy to lose focus when you're obsessed with killing. You almost killed Chen Zixi as well, and only realized it when the edge of the fan was against his neck.
He wasn't afraid. He just silently raised his hand and gently wiped away the blood that splashed around the corner of your eye. He smiled and praised you: "You look like Jiang Wulang in the past. He pointed his sword at me like this back then."
...That sounds quite sad. You came to your senses, but before you could say anything, he held you in his arms.
"Who taught you to be like this... well, you know it's Jiang Wulang. You keep your unhappy feelings to yourself and always find ways to solve them." Chen Zixi patted your back lovingly to comfort you. "Since you're with me, why didn't you ever think to ask me where Jiang Wulang was? You're so smart, you must have guessed that I'm still in touch with him."
"I won't ask," you whispered. "I miss Uncle Jiang very much, but I don't want to get in the way of him. If he can't come to me, then I'll just wait for him... I don't want to embarrass you either. I know you can't tell me."
Chen Zixi held your face in his hands and looked at you seriously: "But seeing you like this makes me sad."
You were stunned, and then you heard him continue, "You may know about that incident. At that time, Jiang Wulang was a wanted man throughout the martial arts world. I traveled thousands of miles to find him, but he was extremely wary and drew his sword swiftly, pressing it against my chest. I was mentally prepared. If he really had killed his father and wanted to kill me, then I would have no choice but to kill him for the sake of justice. If he was still Jiang Wulang, then I would accompany him through life and death."
You suddenly remember what Uncle Jiang said at that time: "He is just that kind of person." Chen Zixi, he is just that kind of person.
"As for Jiang Wulang, I'm still prepared to subdue him. But as for you, I just feel bad. If you can come to your senses by killing me, then it doesn't matter." Chen Zixi's voice was faint and soft, but you knew that he had made up his mind.
Of course you are reluctant to kill Chen Zixi. Now, you only have Chen Zixi, and you only want to be with Chen Zixi.
So you took a step forward with tears in your eyes, stood on tiptoe and kissed him.
The stronghold was filled with the stronghold's thick scent of blood, including yours, but Chen Zixi's was only faintly scented with medicine, which seemed out of place. He didn't show any signs of abnormality, but simply kissed you back silently.
Tears fell, mixed with the kiss, sweet yet bitter. Your consciousness was not clear, and you could no longer tell whose tears those were. You could only feel Chen Zixi's passionate and warm kiss, as if he wanted to swallow you into his stomach.
Later, Chen Zixi became more and more indulgent towards you, and got used to you sticking to him anytime and anywhere.
The patients who come to see you often see you sitting next to them, and they laugh and tease you: "Doctor Chen has been chaste for many years, and now there is a girl who is attracted to him?"
You see, that's an old man with gray hair on his temples. Curiously, I approached him and asked, "Grandpa, is that true? Has he really never had a woman by his side?"
"Of course not," the old man explained with a smile, unsuspecting. "Dr. Chen is a kind and compassionate doctor with a good personality, but he's always been alone, and that makes us patients worried about him."
Chen Zixi looked at you helplessly: "You don't trust me so much?"
"No, I just think you're too charming and I'm a little worried." You lied with your eyes open.
"If you're worried, you can take my place," Chen Zixi suggested. "I know your medical skills, and I can leave most of my patients to you."
"Okay." You thought about it, nodded seriously, and then wrote a note and posted it on the wall - visiting the doctor on behalf of your husband.
Chen Zixi smiled and said that you were "full of cunning", but did not object to your writing like this.
As time went on, everyone in Jinling knew that the talkative and cheerful Doctor Chen had a sweetheart, and he loved her so much that he would always bring her with him whenever he went to see patients. His sweetheart was also a good doctor, and from time to time she would even take his place on the doctors' behalf.
Rumors often spread faster than official laws, and even Uncle Jiang knew about it. After listening to a few descriptions, he felt something was wrong and wrote to Chen Zixi to ask what was going on.
It was like it was in your hands when it landed in Chen Zixi's hands. You glanced at the letter and dictated instructions for him to reply: "Just say, Brother Jiang, you guessed right, that's your girl. She's with me now, we're living well, and we'll get married when you come back."
Chen Zixi: "..." He couldn't count how many times he sighed. He held his forehead and reminded: "Are you afraid that Jiang Wulang won't come to attack me? Even if he hides his identity, it's still easy for him to find me and assassinate me."
You thought about it and decided that you really couldn't beat Uncle Jiang with your skills, so you gave up decisively: "Okay, then, do whatever you want."
Chen Zixi finished writing the letter and noticed that you were still distracted. He thought you were unhappy and moved closer to comfort you: "What's wrong? Why do you want to marry me so much?"
You blinked, and he said sincerely, "My health isn't good, and I'm over seventeen years older than you. I often wonder if being with me would be a waste of your time. I can't run around as freely as I used to, and I have to stay home in both the hot summer and cold winter to recuperate. But you're young and love to play, so why don't you find a younger, healthier knight to accompany you?"
You came back to your senses and nodded: "Drug-"
"Wait until I finish!" Chen Zixi was both angry and amused. "It's not that I don't understand your heart. You understand mine, too. When I gave you the fan, I never thought you'd fall in love with someone else. But I really do love you. I don't want you to lose your father at a young age, leave home at a young age, and end up spending your whole life with a patient like me."
"I'm not a child anymore." You listened to him calmly, then told him seriously. "I dare to make choices and I dare to bear the consequences. I've experienced loss, so I don't want to lose you. You only say you care about me, but how could you not know that I care about you? I also don't want you to be so ambitious and brave as to venture into the martial arts world when you were young, only to be seriously injured while saving your best friend and his adopted daughter, and end up with no one to take care of you, licking your wounds alone in Jiangnan."
Chen Zixi was silent, staring at you without blinking.
"The moment I entered Qingxi, I thought about finding you and staying with you. I never thought about looking back. If one day I regret it, you can just poison us both to death for love." You told him indifferently.
Chen Zixi: “…”
He smiled bitterly: "I still can't do anything to you."
That night, you and Chen Zixi slept in the same bed.
You think he's probably afraid you'll actually drug him. Given his physique, using the medicine you prescribed might require him to recuperate for several more months.
But that doesn't matter. Now you only care about the results, not the reasons and the process. What you hold in your hands is yours.
The rain was pouring down at night. Chen Zixi, sweat on his forehead, whispered your name. His body temperature had risen, and even his fingertips, which had been cold due to blood stasis, were burning hot.
...Looking at the results, you're probably glad you didn't drug him. Otherwise, you two might have been tossing and turning until dawn.
