C53 Yes but Not Necessarily
Realizing that he had lost his composure, Gu Mingxuan calmed himself down. "It's just to survive, there's no special reason."
Just to survive.
These few words caused Mu Zhihuan's nose to turn sour. "Yesterday, Ran'er said that she wanted to learn kung fu from me and had a fight with me .. In order to ask him why he had to learn, he said that he had to have the time to protect me. "
"..." "Everyone envied him for being born in a royal clan, for having such luxurious clothing and food, for having such a high status. However, they had never thought that there would be such a sinister character behind the power of wealth."
Seeing Gu Mingxuan's gloomy expression, Mu Zhihuan suddenly reached out and hugged Gu Mingxuan, "It's okay, it's all over now."
The despair she had experienced before made Mu Zhihuan realize how warm it was to have someone give her a hug when she was feeling sad.
Although she knew that Gu Mingxuan was strong enough, she still wanted to comfort this man who had an indifferent appearance and a soft heart.
Gu Mingxuan's breathing stagnated as he felt Mu Zhihuan's body temperature. He had never thought that Mu Zhihuan would actually hug him on her own accord.
Mo Yi did not know what to do as he lifted his hands in the air. Just as he was about to hug Mu Zhihuan, Mo Yi knocked on the door.
"Mistress, the medicine is ready."
This voice caused Mu Zhihuan to immediately realize how rash her actions had been in the eyes of the people of this era.
Letting go of Gu Mingxuan, Mu Zhihuan rubbed her nose in embarrassment. "Erm .. I don't mean anything else. When Ran is low, I hug him. Maybe... "Practice..."
Before she could finish her sentence, a sweet fragrance suddenly assaulted her nostrils. She reacted for a long time before Mu Zhihuan realized what had happened.
Mu Zhihuan reached out her trembling hands to hug Gu Mingxuan. She gently patted his broad back. "No matter how difficult it is, you'll be able to survive. In the future, you'll get better and better."
Gu Mingxuan didn't say anything. He only absorbed Mu Zhihuan's aura, as if he was a person who had been out for a long time and had finally met water.
He didn't know what was going on inside, but seeing that no one was answering, he called out again, "Master?"
Only then did Gu Mingxuan let go of Mu Zhihuan. Looking at her delicate and pretty face, he reached out his hand to comb the hair at her temples. "Come in."
When Black Robe walked into the room, he saw the sunlight sprinkle onto the room diagonally, enveloping the upper half of Gu Mingxuan's body and causing a layer of pure white light to appear.
At this moment, his master was tidying the hair of the delicate and pretty girl in front of him with a gentle expression. Looking at this dream-like scene, Black Robe was so shocked that he could barely keep his chin.
Was this gentle man really his master?
"Leave the medicine here."
Gu Mingxuan turned around and said, "Give me the medicine, you go down first."
He picked up the medicine bowl and tested the temperature with a spoon in his mouth. Gu Mingxuan blew on it again.
Seeing that he was not very attentive, Mu Zhihuan narrowed her eyes and smiled, asking curiously, "You're going to lend a helping hand to everyone? And so meticulously at that? "
"Zhihuan, I grew up in the palace. It's impossible for me to save anyone."
Gu Mingxuan placed the spoon next to Mu Zhihuan's mouth, gesturing for her to speak.
Looking at Gu Mingxuan's natural actions, Mu Zhihuan didn't know whether she should complain or feel touched.
"That... "Actually, I can do it myself .."
Gu Mingxuan cast a sidelong glance at her and indifferently said, "Yes, but there's no need."
Mu Zhihuan: ".."
After a moment of stalemate, Mu Zhihuan finally gave in. Forget it.
However, the moment Mu Zhihuan opened her mouth and licked the leftover medicinal juice on the spoon, she immediately regretted it.
Why is this thing so bitter!
He was about to say no more, but the moment he opened his mouth, Gu Mingxuan quickly shoved a spoon into Mu Zhihuan's mouth.
In order to not choke on her emotions, her instincts had led Mu Zhihuan to swallow her whole. After that, Mu Zhihuan became unhappy.
"So bitter!"
His entire face was wrinkled into a bun.
Gu Mingxuan scooped another spoonful and placed it next to Mu Zhihuan's mouth, "The medicine is hard on you."
This time, Mu Zhihuan was completely speechless. This person was only the one who had taken the initiative to feed her the medicine because he knew of the medicine's suffering.
Was he afraid she would vomit or something?
"But this is too bitter."
Mu Zhihuan's eyebrows and eyes were pinched together, which was even more bitter than the pills from the 21st century that were crushed and stuffed into her mouth.
"I've got Sugar Man for you."
As he spoke, Gu Mingxuan conjured out a sugar figurine from his sleeve.
"Do you think I'm Ran? Sugar?"
Although Mu Zhihuan said that, she had already stretched out her hand.
This thing was too bitter, she really needed this Sugar Man to take a breather.
Gu Mingxuan flicked his wrist and put the candy away. "Then this pill."
"Can't I drink it?"
Mu Zhihuan felt as if she had boarded Gu Mingxuan's pirate ship.
However, after looking at the bowl of dark medicinal juice, Mu Zhihuan curled her lips. "Spoon after spoonful, it's too bitter. I want to drink it myself."
Mu Zhihuan pursed her lips and carried the bowl for a long time as she worked on her mind. Finally, she mustered the courage to pinch her nose and gulp it down.
After consuming a bowl of medicine, Mu Zhihuan could only feel an unbearable bitterness in her heart.
"You can give me Sugar Man now."
Mu Zhihuan's face was filled with a bitter expression. Those who didn't know what kind of great grievance she had suffered.
Gu Mingxuan found it funny. "Although this medicine is a bit bitter, the effect is extremely good. You'll have to take a pill back later and have your family fry it for you to drink."
When Mu Zhihuan heard that she was going to drink more, she immediately rolled her eyes and fainted. "Ah, I'm really guilty."
Mu Zhihuan sighed and bit onto the sugar doll. As the sweet taste blossomed in her mouth, Mu Zhihuan finally felt better.
Mu Zhihuan suddenly thought of her own store, so she flipped over and landed on the ground.
"Gu Mingxuan, I feel better now, send me back."
Gu Mingxuan raised an eyebrow. A bowl of medicine was already enough? " You should rest here. When the sky turns dark, I will send you back to the palace. "
"Return to the manor?" Mu Zhihuan was stunned. "I still have to go back to the shop, today Wu Miao is going to the village. "There's only Qing He in the shop, I'm afraid she won't be able to handle it."
Hearing Mu Zhihuan say that she still wanted to return to the shop, Gu Mingxuan's expression turned heavy. "Do you know that it's because you're too busy that your body couldn't handle the heat?" If you think about it properly, then stay here with me. "
"But .." Mu Zhihuan wanted to struggle again.
"No buts."
It was obvious that Gu Mingxuan wasn't as easy to talk about as before. He directly rejected Mu Zhihuan. "You take the initiative to rest, or I'll help you rest."
How was this letting her choose? This was simply threatening her.
Mu Zhihuan sighed, "Alright, alright, I understand. However, tell Qing He that I'm here so that she won't worry."
