roat making her even angrier. Her small face flushed red with excitement."Hey—I'm saying, miss, this is how you make me feel! I have no intentions towards you, you can rest assured! Old Zhong wouldn't...Ugh! I'm so annoyed, so annoyed...

Chen Zixuan emerged from the water, taking deep breaths of fresh air...

My mind was muddled, constantly echoing Su Wenhao's words...

"Zixuan, from now on, I will take care of you, okay"

"What I just said was serious, you... think about it carefully... I'll wait for your answer."

Sigh... Chen Zixuan sighed, took a cloth and wiped her face. Sigh... What should she do now... Su Wenhao had already said it so directly, so clearly, and was still waiting for her answer... Sigh... How could she tell Su Wenhao She had only treated him as Yun Jie's stand-in just now, and she had kissed him in a daze because she lost control. It wasn't because he was Su Wenhao that she kissed him...

Oh dear, will I get in trouble for saying this… If only I hadn't been so fragile and emotional just now, none of this mess would have happened. How can she possibly do anything without hurting Su Wenhao

…Actually, Su Wenhao is a pretty good person. He's probably the only normal person she's met in this era who she can talk to. She doesn't want to lose such a good friend because of a relationship issue... But now that things have come to this point, if she directly rejects him, Su Wenhao probably won't consider her a friend anymore If she doesn't refuse, what about Yunjie Her heart still has a place for Yunjie. She can't deceive Su Wenhao like this and delay his future...

Alas... what should I do Who can teach her...

Chen Zi Xuan had been agonizing for a long time, until the water in the tub turned cold before she slowly climbed out. She changed into the clothes that the maid had placed behind the screen. Standing behind the door, she knew that if she pushed it open, she would have to face Su Wenhao...

But how should she face her She hadn't figured it out yet, always feeling that no matter what, the moment they met would be awkward, and no matter what she said, it would feel like an injury…

Ahhhh, why isn't there a second door here, or even a window...

Chen Zixuan bit her lip, took several deep breaths, placed her hand on the door, bit her lip again, and opened it.

Su Wenhao was sitting at the table, sipping tea. When Chen Zixuan came out from inside, he stood up and wanted to step forward, but as if remembering something, he stood awkwardly there.

Seeing Su Wenhao's awkward expression, Chen Zixuan became even more embarrassed. She swallowed nervously and walked over.

"Zixuan, how are you feeling" Su Wenhao asked with a gentle smile.

Chen Zixuan nodded.

"Come, let me apply the medicine to you first." Su Wenhao opened the medicine box in front of him, took out the medicine, and started fiddling with it.

"No, I'll do it myself." Chen Zixuan took the medicine from Su Wenhao's hand.

Su Wenhao saw Chen Zixuan's mouth moving, but there was no sound. He looked at her strangely: "Zixuan, what's wrong with your throat Was it injured when you encountered the assassin last time"

Chen Zixuan nodded and mouthed, “I won’t be able to speak anymore, so... I can't be with you…” This was a compromise Chen Zixuan had struggled with for a long time…

Unfortunately, Chen Zixuan got nervous and spoke too much too quickly. Su Wenhao couldn't quite understand her lip movements.

"Zixuan, what do you mean I don't quite understand..." Su Wenhao looked at her seriously.

Chen Zixuan felt a little down. Was it because he didn't understand what she said, or was he afraid of being rejected He pouted unhappily...

"It's alright, Zixuan, I have a little understanding of medicine. Extend your hand, let me take your pulse." Su Wenhao took out a small pillow for taking pulses and placed it on the table, motioning for Chen Zixuan to place his wrist on it.

Does Su Wenhao know medicine How could she not know… Um… it seems like they've only met three times, and they didn't talk much. It's normal not to know if he knows medicine…

Since Su Wenhao is a skilled doctor, let's have him examine you first...

Chen Zixuan placed his hand on the pulse pillow and looked at Su Wenhao.

Su Wenhao seriously took Chen Zixuan's pulse. After about a stick of incense, Su Wenhao withdrew his hand. Seeing Chen Zixuan's worried face, Su Wenhao didn't sell him short.

"Zixuan, it's nothing. Just a sore throat. I believe Yuan Shenyi has already prescribed medicine for you. Don't worry, in a few days you'll be able to speak normally. But you have to rest well, you are injured and need to recuperate. I'll give you some prescriptions to help your body recover." Su Wenhao lowered his head and wrote the prescription.

Chen Zixuan, hearing that she would be able to speak normally again, was so excited that she almost rushed into Su Wenhao's arms. Luckily, she held back at the last moment...

It turns out she can still speak, and the Divine Physician has already prescribed medicine for her. So why did Ruitian Yu say she would never be able to speak again, making her think she would become a mute... That damn Ruitian Yu, he's really a troublemaker, born to torment me. When I'm better, wait and see how I'll deal with you...

"Zixuan, the medicine might be a bit bitter, but don't worry, I'll be with you..." Su Wenhao smiled gently at Chen Zixuan, put down his brush, and blew on the ink on the prescription.

"Huh Chen Zixuan opened his eyes... Accompany me Does that mean I'm supposed to stay here But I didn't plan on staying here. If I do, things between us will be even more complicated. I can't give you a future with no hope..."

Chen Zixuan's face fell. This wasn't waiting for her answer, it was already a decision made... Chen Zixuan thought Ruitianling was the most cunning, but it turned out that Su Wenhao was the most cunning, ...Su Wenhao is bad... Looping one thousand times....

"Zixuan, you must be hungry, right This is osmanthus cake made by my maid. Try it." Su Wenhao brought a piece of osmanthus cake to Chen Zixuan's mouth.

"Uh, I'll do it myself..." Chen Zixuan picked up a piece from the plate and stuffed it into his mouth...

Su Wenhao's hand paused, and a gentle smile bloomed on his face as he reached out to wipe the pastry crumbs from Chen Zixuan's lips. "I'm sorry, Zixuan, did I scare you today..."

Well... you know... then why are you still scaring me... You're bad, verdict complete...

But I don't regret doing this, I know it's not easy to find someone who understands you…

But I don't seem to be on the same page as you. If we were, you should already know my answer... dear...

"Zixuan, I will take responsibility for what happened today as a man..."

What Responsible No, no, no, it's not necessary. It was just a quick kiss, lips touching lips only. Think of it as a greeting custom for foreigners, okay

"Zixuan, I know you still can't forget Ruitianling..."

What This...how did this involve Ruitianling, I don't have any relationship with Ruitianling at all! Young man, how did you see that I haven't forgotten Ruitianling Your eyesight isn't good, is it...

But I can wait, until you forget the day Rui Tianling accepted me...

"Oh... Chen Zixuan covered her face, her hair a mess in the wind... This... how could she possibly explain this... Why did her voice fail her at the most crucial moment..."

Chen Zixuan was struggling with how to tell Su Wenhao, when the sound of a carriage came from outside...ixuan frowned, staring at his shoes. What should he do Looking at Rui Tianling's expression, it seemed like he wasn't going to keep any useless people in the palace. When that time came and he was kic...
