Chapter 2: What a handsome man!
as just short of asking her to leave."I want to see your shopkeeper."The medicine boy's face darkened. "Get lost, get lost! Our shopkeeper isn't someone you can just meet whenever you want! This is a...An Xuetang : “...”
Oh crap, I'm busted.
An Xuetang slowly opened her eyes, and after a moment of dazed confusion, she saw the man beside her.
My God!
What a handsome man!
This face, sculpted with such precision, is handsome and beautiful. Its noble and delicate nose, along with those thin lips that lack any blood color, are still captivating. Its eyes gleam like cold stars, and its two brows seem to be painted on.
Her eyes were beautiful, but too sharp. If it weren't for An Xuetang being someone who had seen the world, she would probably be scared to death by them.
But... he was poisoned.
Yes, An Xue Tang could tell at a glance that the man in front of her was poisoned. The poison had invaded his five viscera and six bowels, and he was probably near death.
Mo Yunjing saw that she dared to look him up and down so shamelessly, he narrowed his eyes and said in a cold voice, "Say, why are you pretending to be unconscious"
Yunliu instantly became wary upon hearing this, fearing that this woman was targeting Mo Yunjing.
Just as he was about to throw An Xue Tang to the ground, An Xue Tang finally spoke, "Hungry, I'm hungry."
An Xuetang's voice surprised even herself. What was going on with her voice
It's a bit too much, like a sweet spring gurgling melodiously, touching one's heart.
Mo Yunjing's heart skipped a beat, and he wasn't sure if it was because the voice sounded so pitiful. He looked up at Yunliu, "Get her something to eat."
Yunliu hesitated, "Big brother, why don't I throw her outside first and find out who she is"
This woman feigned unconsciousness. He was afraid she might have ulterior motives, and he absolutely couldn't allow anything to happen to his master.
Who knows if this woman might have been sent to kill her master.
An Xuetang rolled her eyes. Was she a thing How could they just throw her around like that
Seeing An Xue Tang's white eyes, Mo Yun Jing twitched the corner of his mouth. He inexplicably felt that this woman was cute and... credible.
"She doesn't have the energy to, go get some water and something to eat for her."
Yunliu hesitated but still went to carry out the task. He soon brought over a bowl of water and a steamed bun.
"Get up and eat," Mo Yunjing said indifferently.
An Xuetang pursed her lips, looked at him pitifully, and spoke in a very weak voice, “I… I don’t have the strength to get up. Do you believe me”
Mo Yunjing, Yunliu: "..."
Yunliu regretted for the first time. He seemed to have done something wrong by spending money. How could such a frail woman leave descendants for his master
Mo Yunjing thought about it and still reached out to pull her up, letting her lean against the headboard.
Yunliu passed over a bowl of water and steamed buns.
An Xuetang didn't reach out to take it. She just looked at Mo Yunjing with pitiful eyes, "I can't lift my hand, I have no strength."
Mo Yunjing: "..."
She owes me!
Yunliu now even more strongly felt the urge to send her back home, "Big brother, what if..."
Before he could finish his words, Mo Yunjing raised his hand to signal him to stop. Mo Yunjing took the thing from Yun Liu's hands and placed a bowl of water by An Xuetang's lips.
Yunliu's eyes widened in disbelief. His master was going to serve this woman her meal
"Yunliu reacted and immediately reached for the item. “Big brother, let me take it.”
An Xuetang suddenly spoke, "Don't come here, you're not good-looking."
< Yunliu: "!" >
Mo Yunjing's lips twitched slightly, and he said in a gentle voice, "Drink it."
"Oh." An Xuetang obediently opened her mouth and drank it down in small sips.
After the bowl of water was finished, Mo Yunjing stuffed a bun into her mouth.
Cool!
She swore she had never eaten such a hard steamed bun in her life.
Despite her reluctance, she was so hungry that she had to bite down.
Mo Yunjing saw her furrowed brows. He looked at Yunliu, "Is there any other food"
Yunliu was speechless, "Big brother, I can't cook. These steamed buns were bought in the village. That's all I have, and the game hasn't been processed yet."
Mo Yunjing nodded, then there was nothing to be done.
An Xuetang ate the steamed bun, nibbling at it like a chick pecking at grains.
She looked at Yunliu, "I need some water."
Yunliu was covered in black lines, gritted her teeth and went to pour water for her anyway.
Mo Yunjing kept observing An Xue Tang, "You haven't made it clear, why pretend to be unconscious"
An Xuetang raised her eyes to look at him, "You want to know what you're going to do Anyway, I've been thrown onto your bed. I can't run away, so I might as well find out what you really want."
As they spoke, An Xuetang caught a glimpse of Mo Yunjing's legs out of the corner of her eye. She was taken aback.
But just for a moment.
It turns out he wasn't just poisoned, but also disabled in both legs. It seems the rumors circulating in the village do have some truth to them.
Mo Yunjing stared at her thoughtfully for a moment before speaking, "I know you don't want to marry. I can let you go."
"!"
An Xuetang looked at him excitedly, "Is that true"
"Hmm."
"No!" Yunliu, who had just come back after fetching water, suddenly spoke up. He looked anxiously at Mo Yunjing, "Big brother, you can't let her leave."
An Xuetang narrowed her eyes, a flash of killing intent passing through them. She said coldly, "The protagonist has agreed, what do you have to disagree with"
Yunliu ignored her, only looking at Mo Yunjing, "Big brother, you promised me."
Mo Yunjing gave him a cold glance. "I promised I would buy you a wife, but I never said I wouldn't divorce her."
"Divorce... You want to divorce me" An Xue Tang's eyes widened. "We haven't even had our wedding ceremony, so you just want me to leave like this Who would know that we were ever married Do you have to force me to be labeled as a divorced woman"
Moyu Jing looked at her calmly, "If our marriage today doesn't count, are you not afraid that someone will accuse you of being an old maid and bring trouble to your family"
Damn it!
I almost forgot that.
An Xuetang lowered her eyes and pondered for a moment, trying to negotiate, "Then... then can we get a divorce A divorce is better than being cast aside, right"
"No, a divorce would make others think I'm the problem. I absolutely will not do something that would bring shame upon myself."
"Oh my god, what's going on here"
Yunliu's mouth twitched at her master's words.
An Xuetang blinked, "Well then, let's just live our lives well."
Anyway, seeing him like this, he probably won't live for much longer. It wouldn't be so bad if she just became a widow then.
Having made up her mind, An Xuetang encouraged herself mentally and continued to lie down. "I'm still very tired, that potent medicine almost took half my life. I need to rest for a while."
As soon as she finished speaking, she closed her eyes, not treating herself as an outsider at all.
Mo Yunjing's dark pupils were like the night, both tranquil and mysterious. The light that emanated from them was unfathomable, and he stared at An Xuetang silently, as if trying to see through this woman.
From the moment she stepped through the door, everything she did was under his gaze. Her composed and elegant manner didn't resemble a country woman at all.
Yunliu glanced at An Xue Tang, then at Mo Yun Jing, wanting to speak but holding back.
Mo Yunjing knew what he wanted to say, and at this moment, she said coldly, "I have my own ideas. You go out first."his familiar look terrified An Xue Tang so much that she wanted to lower her head and pretend she hadn't seen it.Before she could even lower her head, Mo Yunjing had already acted. He grabbed her chin...
