wanting to stimulate him too much. After all, he had no grievances against her, she didn't want to accept his feelings, nor did she want to bear the weight of his life.>However, in this situation, if...Xiao Yu's dark and bright eyes darted back and forth across his face, as if trying to see through him. Her lips moved slightly: "Qian Tingxuan, will you... lie to me"

Qian Tingxuan's expression faltered for a moment, then he replied seriously: "If you're talking about feelings, I can swear to heaven that my love for you is true." Perhaps it was only because of that promise before, but since he had been with her these past few months, no, from the night she saved him outside the city, after knowing she was the little girl he had been waiting for, he had put her in his heart.

At that time, he had investigated her and knew she was deeply in love with Qian Si Chen. He had also thought that if she and Qian Si Chen truly loved each other, he would let go of his promise and bless them. However, she told him with her own mouth that she didn't love Qian Si Chen. From then on, he decided that no matter what method he used, he would keep her by his side.

Even if those who fall in love first and confess their feelings are destined to be losers, he admitted it. But he forgot to ask her if she was willing to accept his love. He unilaterally assumed that since he loved her and she was by his side, it was enough!

Xiao Yu's song ended, and Xiao Yu's gaze was momentarily fixated. Then she jumped off the bed and walked to the window. The bright moon of late autumn still shone so clearly, but it felt as lonely and cold as snow...

"It's cool in the evening, your body is fine, don't stand here catching a cold." He gently draped his cloak on her and fastened it, then instinctively embraced her from behind. The moonlight was so lonely and desolate, but her eyes were even lonelier and more desolate than the moon. Although she was right in his arms, he felt she was very, very far away from him...

Xiao Yu's song didn't push him away. She suddenly felt very lost, after revenge, was she really going to roam the world with him Every time she had this thought, she would have a feeling she couldn't explain. Deep in her heart, there seemed to be a voice always reminding her, that was impossible!

Perhaps she yearns for true love, but fears betraying it, which is why she remains so entangled.

"Qianting Xuan..." she called his name softly.

"Hmm" he murmured into her neck, his voice barely audible.

Her red lips moved, but in the end, she said nothing. She simply leaned silently against him, like two pitiful souls seeking warmth from each other, suspicious yet reliant on one another!

The next day, Xiao Yuge came to the shop as promised. To her surprise, there was a long queue already waiting outside. There were even some elderly and frail people. The shopkeeper had thoughtfully arranged for a young waiter to bring chairs, completely unlike his arrogant demeanor from the previous day. Only Xiao Yuge knew that he must have taken the medicine she prescribed last night, which had eased his symptoms at night and allowed him to sleep soundly. Therefore, he now deeply believed in her medical skills.

"The Divine Doctor is here!" At that moment, everyone saw Xiao Yuge and immediately became excited.

Xiao Yu sang didn't waste everyone's time, after quickly preparing things, she sat down and began to treat them. Here, along the coast, most ailments were related to the humidity of the seaside. The elderly mostly suffered from cold legs, which were actually chronic conditions, not particularly difficult or obscure diseases, but they couldn't be cured in a short time.

All day long, Xiao Yuge felt like her buttocks and legs were numb. Apart from meal times when she stood up for a while, the rest of the time was spent treating villagers. Qian Tingxuan saw this and felt very sorry for her.

They didn't return to the inn until nightfall. The innkeeper, having heard they were treating villagers for free, made sure to prepare them a meal. When he learned they would continue seeing patients the next day, he even gave them two quieter rooms.

After a long day of work, Xiao Yuge just wanted to lie down and relax after taking a bath. But at this time, Qian Tingxuan personally brought over hot water.

"Why are you bringing me water" Xiao Yu Ge was dumbfounded.

"You've been sitting all day, your legs must be numb. I'll get you some hot water to soak your feet."

Qian Tingxuan, while speaking, started taking off her embroidered shoes. She hurriedly retracted her foot, "I can do it myself." He, the esteemed Prince, was going to remove her shoes Was he planning on washing her feet too

"Just sit on the bed, I'll come." Qian Tingxuan stubbornly pulled her feet out again.

"You, a dignified prince, how could you do such a thing" Xiao Yuge subconsciously wanted to retract her foot again.

"I serve my own little lady, it's only natural." As he spoke, Qian Tingxuan had already taken off one of her shoes.

When his warm hands carefully placed her little feet into the basin, Xiao Yuge's heart still involuntarily trembled. A strange and unfamiliar feeling crept up from her toes to the top of her head, leaving her blushing furiously.

On the other hand, Qian Tingxuan carefully lifted the water to her feet, every movement so gentle, each touch stirring waves in his heart...原來女子的腳是這般的嬌小可愛！(The woman's feet were so delicate and cute!)

The just right temperature of the water let Xiao Yu Ge slowly breathe a sigh of relief, she no longer refused, letting him wash her. Slowly, drowsiness came over her, she couldn't help but yawn and leaned against the bed frame, soon falling into a deep sleep.

Qian Tingxuan looked up and saw that she had fallen asleep. A slight smile curved his lips, and a feeling of unprecedented satisfaction and joy filled his heart: she trusted him so much, how wonderful!

Little one, you must be exhausted today!

He carefully wiped the water droplets from her small feet, then gently placed her back on the bed. He lay her down and pulled the blanket over her body. He didn't seem to realize anything was amiss; his actions were smooth and natural, as if these things were meant for him to do.

When Xiao Yuge woke up, it was already the next morning. After a night's rest, she felt full of energy. She stretched and sat up, only then noticing that Qian Tingxuan was still in her room.

As it turned out, he didn't go back to his room last night. Instead, he put two chairs together and used them as a bed, placing them behind the door, and slept on top of them himself.

Is he guarding her

Actually, every time she was in the same room with him, even at the palace, he was like this. Don't look at how he often took advantage of her in public, and to outsiders, he seemed flirtatious and unrestrained, thinking that they were no longer innocent between them. But only she knew that privately, he had never done anything over the line to her.

Xiao Yuge looked at the bedding on her body, lightly got out of bed, intending to cover the bedding over him. It was a bit cold on a deep autumn night, wouldn't he catch a cold if he slept like this all night

But just as she carried the quilt to his side, he suddenly opened his eyes and sprang up!

Seeing her, he seemed to let out a breath of relief: "You're awake." Looking at the bedding in her hands, he instantly understood what it meant. He smiled, a genuine and happy smile: she was caring for him, wasn't she late were not worthy of pity. How could she not know that even if she removed the mother's womb now, it might not be able to save Qian Tingxuan. But she wanted to gamble, that man who was so unparall...
