Yun Jiangli stared at the youth who was drinking soup seriously with his head down. His handsome profile seemed to have become much thinner, and his small body seemed to have no weight at all when he was picked up.
He guesses that he was pampered at home and raised in a comfortable environment as well. This time he is injured and sick, and he must have suffered a lot.
“You…” Yun Jiangli hesitated for a moment but continued to ask, “Do you have any dietary restrictions on your daily life?”
“Huh?”
When Yan Muning heard this, he raised his head with his eyes flashing.
Yun Jiangli looked at his dazed look and suddenly felt itchy and wanted to rub his little head.
He clenched his fists lightly, resisting the urge, and repeated with a slight frown, “Is there any dietary restriction?”
It turned out that he had heard it right. Yan Muning tilted his head and thought about it. He had never encountered anything he didn’t eat since he was a child. He pursed his lips and said a little embarrassedly, “I don’t like sour food… Does it count?”
Speaking of which, the little prince really doesn’t like sour food.
When he was young, he was a greedy cat. Whenever he saw others eating, he would always want to join in and have a bite. But his second brother liked sour food, so he would choose oranges and apricots because they were sour.
Once, when the little Yan Muning was only three or two years old, he was sitting in his second brother’s arms. He took a bite of a sour apricot and immediately burst into tears because of the sourness. He ran away crying.
He was so angry that he refused to talk to his second brother for many days. From then on, he would frown whenever he saw something sour and refused to eat sour food again.
Thinking of his second brother, Yan Muning suddenly felt like crying.
Ying1This is a crying sound, he missed home. He also has no idea if his second brother has received the news or if he has sent people to look for him or not.
Yun Jiangli was startled. The youth in front of him suddenly became listless, with red eyes.
A sense of inexplicable irritation surged up in his mind, but it disappeared before he could grasp the clue.
“I…” Yun Jiangli opened his mouth and stared at the youth with a frown, “I won’t let you eat sour food.”
He doesn’t want to see him cry.
Yun Jiangli had already clumsily started to coax the person without even realizing he had this idea.
“En? Alright.”
Yan Muning had already put away his emotions. He was a little confused when he heard the big beauty’s words. After agreeing, he secretly observed him and found that the big beauty seemed serious. So he boldly said in a low voice, “I like to eat sweets.”
The big beauty nodded slightly.
The little prince became even bolder, blinked his eyes, and said, “Then I want to eat meat, big meat!”
Yun Jiangli: “……”
Did I abuse you?
With a long sigh, he nodded in a compromising manner, thinking about stewing some medicinal food for the youth as he was still young.
.
From then on, the little prince became more active in eating every day. Although there was no chili or even meat, but the big beauty managed to make the simple ingredients smell delicious. He wished he could move a small stool and sit in the kitchen to watch the whole process every day.
In particular, the medicinal food prepared by the old men in the Imperial Medical always tastes terrible, even more unpalatable than medicine, but the medicinal food prepared by the beauty is simply the most delicious food in the world!
Yan Muning swallowed and began to think that it was a bit of a loss to let the beauty go to the Imperial Medical. Could he bring him directly back to the palace?
“Why is it raining again?” Yan Muning couldn’t go to the yard to bask in the sun, so he could only lie on the bed and stare out the window.
Yun Jiangli was flipping through a medical book, and without looking up, he said, “It rains a lot in Jinzhou in autumn. I don’t think I’ve ever asked you, where are you from?”
He asked casually, but Yan Muning did not dare to answer casually, so he could only reply vaguely: “It doesn’t rain so much in the north.”
Having said that, he teased the white sparrow with a guilty conscience and did not dare to look at Yun Jiangli again.
Fortunately, Yun Jiangli did not intend to ask in detail either. His mind was focused on the book. After a long time, he realized that the room was too quiet. Then he found that the youth had fallen asleep while leaning against the window, and the chubby little bird was curled up and sleeping soundly on his chest.
Yun Jiangli got up quietly, closed the window, and took out a thick cloak and put it on the youth.
He looked so adorable when he was sleeping. He took a few quick glances at him and then looked away.
Yan Muning slept until it was getting dark. When he woke up, he was rubbing his sleepy eyes and could already smell the aroma of dinner.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw the food already laid out on the table. Yun Jiangli had cooked a rich medicinal porridge with seasonal taro and several medicinal herbs today and had specially added some sugar for the youth.
The little prince’s round eyes were curved into crescents with joy. He held the hot, sweet, and glutinous porridge and drank half a bowl in one gulp.
But who would have thought that less than half an hour after dinner, Yan Muning, who was leaning against the head of the bed flipping through a chess manual, suddenly began to have abdominal pain?
He originally thought he had caught a cold, but the cramps in his stomach became more and more severe, and cold sweat instantly covered his back. He could no longer hold the chess book in his hand, and it fell to the side of the bed with a thud.
Yun Jiangli raised his eyes when he heard the noise and looked over. He saw the youth frowning in pain, one hand pressed tightly against his abdomen and the other hand supporting the edge of the bed, trembling as if he would fall down at any time.
“Xiao Qi!” Yun Jiangli walked quickly to the bed in his shoes and raised his hand to hold the boy’s thin shoulders.
Yan Muning, who was already dizzy from the pain, looked at the person in front of him with blurred vision. His lips were shaking so much that he couldn’t utter a complete sentence. He only uttered a few words faintly: “Jiang… I’m in so much pain…”
“Xiao Qi, be obedient and let go of your hands. Let me see.” Yun Jiangli frowned and tried to take his hands away from his abdomen.
Yan Muning suddenly pushed him hard, and he fell on the bed and vomited. Yun Jiangli felt nervous.
Seeing that the youth was in so much pain that he was losing consciousness, he used a little force to carry him away from the dirty bed.
He felt that his internal organs were churning wildly, and the pain was so severe that cold sweat broke out. Yan Muning could no longer bear it. Painful groans escaped from his mouth, and tears flowed from the corners of his eyes.
Am I going to die?
This was his last thought before he lost consciousness.
Yun Jiangli calmly put away the acupuncture needles in his hand and placed the youth, who had finally stopped struggling, on the clean, narrow couch.
Seeing the tears in the youth’s eyes, his whole aura suddenly became frighteningly cold, but his hands’ movements were still gentle.
Unbuttoning Yan Muning’s undergarment, Yun Jiangli pursed his thin lips tightly as he looked at the bleeding wound from being carelessly torn.
When re-bandaging the wound, the red marks on the youth’s cold white skin caught his attention.
After Yun Jiangli concentrated on taking Yan Muning’s pulse, he quickly took off all of Yan Muning’s undergarments. The youth’s thin body lay on the dark, narrow couch, and his eyes suddenly darkened.
He closed his eyes for a moment, and when he opened them again, there was only cold concentration in his eyes, as if the emotion that just flashed by was just an illusion.
Yun Jiangli took out the necessary pills from the medicine box and wanted to feed them to the youth.
But for some reason, Yan Muning, who had already fainted, gritted his teeth and refused to open his mouth.
He tried to pry his lips open and feed him the pill several times but failed. I saw more and more red marks on his body, which began to connect into large red rashes, and his breathing also became rapid.
Yun Jiangli gritted his teeth, put the pill into his mouth, crushed it gently, and took a sip of warm water. He leaned over and lifted the boy’s upper body slightly and pressed the medicine into his mouth with his lips against his. He then picked up the teacup and gave him two more sips of warm water in the same way.
Yan Muning, who was in a coma, seemed to sense something. The moment his lips touched his, his clenched teeth loosened, and he stretched out his tongue to lick his still wet lips.
Yun Jiangli, who rarely had vivid expressions, pursed his lips, and his ears turned red.
Standing by the couch, he wiped the cold sweat from the youth’s forehead with a handkerchief, calculated the time to feed him the medicine, and then he pinched the thin wrist and checked his pulse again.
Looking at the rain outside the window getting heavier and heavier, he thought for a long time, sighed heavily, and made a decision.
Yun Jiangli first gave the youth acupuncture, then he let him half lean on the soft pillow, covered him with warm fox fur, and finally pressed Yan Muning’s dagger under the pillow.
When he stood up to leave, he tapped the little white sparrow’s head and said to it in a rather childish tone, “Take care of the house and him too. I’ll be back soon.”
After saying that, he casually grabbed an outer robe, put on a slightly thicker cloak, and opened his thin lips to the pale-faced youth on the couch, and silently said, “Wait for me.”
He hurriedly braved the heavy rain and headed towards Zoushan in the night.
.
Yan Muning struggled to pry open his eyelids, only to feel that he had no strength at all in his body. He felt so weak that he couldn’t even lift a finger.
The wound still hurt a little, but his vision gradually became clearer.
He turned his head to look out the window. The rain had not stopped yet and the sky was very gloomy. He had no idea what time it was.
The white sparrow seemed to see him wake up and immediately moved its round little body to throw itself onto the soft pillow and gently poked his cheek with its short beak.
Yan Muning’s stomach still felt heavy as if there were a handful of stones stuffed in it, rubbing sharply against his soft internal organs. Although the pain was not severe enough to make him lose consciousness, it was uncomfortable enough to make him restless.
He closed his eyes slightly, recalling what happened before he fainted.
The last vague impression was Yun Jiangli’s cold face and eyes, as if he had been stabbed unconscious by a needle from him.
Thinking of this, Yan Muning felt a little uneasy. He raised his eyes and looked around the room, but did not see Yun Jiangli.
No, no, if he had been poisoned, why would he wait until now? He has been treating him for more than half a month already. He has no reason to do this.
Yan Muning spat at himself slightly. The beauty was so good to him, why was he the first to suspect him when something happened?
This is too much, scumbag!
After scolding himself, the little prince sobered up a little.
His arm was itchy, and he couldn’t help but scratch it a few times.
The itchy hand suddenly stopped. Did he just do it? Without lifting his sleeve?
So… where is his undergarment?
Yan Muning opened the fox fur covering his body in disbelief and was stunned the moment he looked over.
The little prince was completely frozen, his fingers gripping the fox fur so tightly that they were shaking.
Now the pain in his body and stomachache are not worth mentioning.
He! The great Prince An!
Being stuffed naked into the quilt!
The point is, where is this person?
Where is the person who took off his undergarment?
Scumbag, this is scumbag! Compared with Yun Jiangli, how can I be worthy of the title of scumbag!
The little prince was so angry that he almost cried, biting his lips with tears in his eyes.
Something suddenly flashed through Yan Muning’s mind, and he touched his lips in shock.
No, no, no, that’s impossible. How could he kiss me secretly?
Yan Muning secretly gritted his teeth and swore—if this scumbag not only took off his clothes but also kissed him secretly, then he would definitely cut off this scumbag’s little brother with his own hands!
The author has something to say:
Big Beauty Yun: Oh, how could you bear to do that?
