"Even if I didn't tell you, Vanilla, you would definitely be able to tell that Young Master Tang is no ordinary person. You can tell just by looking at what he was wearing when he was injured. The material is much better than what we bought him."
"However, we don't know what happened to him, but he doesn't look like a treacherous person. Maybe he was framed and designed by some evil people to end up like this. It's okay to be so seriously injured. He can't even see his eyes, and his heart is so broken. Just give him a pair of rough linen clothes, and I'm afraid that the gap in his heart will be too great, which will not be conducive to his recovery. "
“……”
In the room, Xiaoxiao was silent for a while.
Outside the house, Tang Zhou also frowned.
"But sister, that piece of jade was the only thing my mother left to us before she died, so we just pawned it off..."
"It's only been around for a while. Mr. Tang's injury will eventually heal. He will leave after he recovers, and we can go back to the old days. When we save enough money, we can redeem the jade. Also, Mr. Tang cannot be allowed to know about this matter. He is very thoughtful and sensitive. If he knew about it, he would feel guilty."
……
Outside the kitchen, Tang Zhou couldn't move any further while carrying the food box.
He even lifted his feet and started to step back.
He walked softly, fearing to be heard by the two people in the kitchen, and fearing to live up to their good intention of hiding it from him.
He told himself that pretending he didn't hear anything was the best option.
Otherwise, both parties will be embarrassed.
When he was exploring his way back to the steps under the door of the bamboo house in the dark, he heard someone from the kitchen calling him.
"Tang Gongzi?" It's Shen Zhixi.
He was startled, as if his body was frozen.
When you look back, try to make your expression invisible.
"Mr. Tang, why did you come out?" Shen Zhixi pretended to be worried about him, and hurriedly ran out to meet him, reaching out to take the food box in his hand, "Didn't I just say that, Just leave it there after you finish it, and I will come and clean it up."
Tang Zhou didn't let go, holding on to the food box.
"You..." Shen Zhixi's voice sounded a little nervous, and he asked carefully: "Mr. Tang, when did you come out?"
Tang Zhou heard her temptation and quickly let go.
"I just walked down the steps and then thought about whether I forgot to take the spoon. I was about to go back when I heard Miss Suzuly calling me."
He answered calmly, with no trace on his face.
"So that's it." Shen Zhixi's voice sounded obviously relieved, and he said: "It doesn't matter, Master Tang. From now on, just call me or my sister for this kind of thing. Don't be polite to us. Your eyes It’s not healed yet, what if you accidentally fall and your injury becomes more serious.”
Tang Zhou listened quietly, always lowering his eyes to hide his emotions.
"I'll help you in." Shen Zhixi placed the food box on the steps and reached out to hold Tang Zhou's arm.
He didn't refuse and just replied, "Thank you."
"Be careful, there is a threshold ahead." Shen Zhixi took every step patiently. He helped Tang Zhou through the door, then helped him sit down in front of the bed. He looked at the table in front of him and said, "Mr. Tang, I remembered it wrong. The table has been It was kept very clean and no spoons, dishes or chopsticks were left behind.”
"…That's good."
Tang Zhou remained calm and did not let himself be exposed, lest Shen Zhixi would be worried and embarrassed.
"Then Mr. Tang, sit down and rest for a while. He is boiling some medicine and boiling hot water. He will drink the medicine and then wash himself. When he comes back, he will apply medicine to the wound. I'll go and see if it's already healed."
"Thank you, Miss Suzuly."
"You're welcome."
After Shen Zhixi left the door, Tang Zhou couldn't hide the guilt on his face.
Previously, he thought that Miss Suzulan was pretending to be poor and had other plans for him. Now it seems that he was narrow-minded, and it was indeed his villainous heart that wrongly blamed them.
It turned out that they really spent all their money to treat his injuries.
In order to take care of his emotions, he even pawned his late mother's belongings. This kindness was beyond his imagination.
He covered his heart and bent slightly, feeling that it was unbearable.
Although Suzuran sisters saved him, he was unwilling to be a burden to them at first, but he didn't want to become a burden to them from the moment they rescued him.
Especially Miss Suzuly, she is very thoughtful...
His body was still weak, and it was difficult to control his emotions when he was slightly agitated. The familiar fishy and sweet taste filled his throat again, as if he was about to spit it out.
The hand on his knee was clenched into a fist, and he swallowed the blood in his throat. Even so, when he gently opened his mouth to breathe, you could still see faint blood from his mouth.
"Master Tang."
Soon, Shen Zhixi came back with medicine.
As soon as he heard this, he immediately sat up straighter to prevent her from noticing his changes, but in the end the dense sweat on his forehead betrayed him. Shen Zhixi could detect the weakness in his restraint when he got closer.
"Mr. Tang, are you okay?"
Tang Zhou shook his head, but was unable to speak for a moment.
"I..." Shen Zhixi tried to put on a show and looked concerned, "Otherwise, I'd better go find the doctor and come back and check it out for you. I'm afraid."
"It's okay, it doesn't matter."
Tang Zhou grabbed her wrist with his backhand and used some force. He raised his head and looked at her even though he couldn't see it. "Miss Suzulan, I just need to take it easy. You don't have to worry, don't be afraid."
His eyes were full of depression, and he was unwilling to let Shen Zhixi spend any more money on him.
Because he couldn't see, he looked harder, his eyebrows were furrowed, and the light in his eyes was broken, just like the helplessness in his heart.
"I'm sorry." He said suddenly.
Shen Zhixi squatted down, unable to hear clearly because his voice was soft.
"I'm sorry." He repeated.
He apologized for his previous misunderstanding of her and for making their lives so difficult because of him.
Shen Zhixi didn't understand, or pretended not to understand.
"Mr. Tang, what are you talking about? Let me give you medicine. You will be fine. You will get better after drinking the medicine. The medicine has been cooled with a fan, and it is just in your mouth."
She dragged a stool over and sat in front of him.
"I will do it myself."
Tang Zhou didn't want her to feed him, but he couldn't even raise his hand. The blood he just forced to take a breath caused confusion in his breath. His body seemed to have exhausted all its strength, and his fingers were trembling.
"I'll do it. Mr. Tang, please don't be polite to me."
Shen Zhixi took a spoonful of the dark medicinal soup and brought it to Tang Zhou's lips, "Open your mouth."
He moved his eyelids and lowered his eyelashes to cover his shining eyes.
Ultimately, there was no taking no for an answer.
The wooden spoon touched his red lips, which made Shen Zhixi's eyes heat up, as if his fingers had touched the softness, and he felt his heart suddenly itchy.
I really want to go up and take a bite.
The medicinal soup slipped into his mouth, and when she swallowed it, it rolled down her throat as well.
She knew that the plan she had laid out over the past two days was successful. After tonight, he would probably no longer doubt her, and would even feel guilty about her.
But this is not enough.
She wanted to get him, bite his red lips to get it.
"Cough...cough cough..."
