C53 Yes but Not Necessarily (1/2)
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.
