At this time, Cheng Shubai was taking care of a little baby, seriously and patiently.

He knew that Su Xiaoxi was frightened and needed to take her time to recover.

Su Xiaoxi raised her eyes and looked at Cheng Shubai, his face was full of concern and doting.

This kind of scene was what she wanted to see most in the past, but at this moment, she was inexplicably repulsed.

She was afraid, afraid that once she was greedy, she would never be able to let go.

Cheng Shubai's behavior was too intimate, and Su Xiaoxi unnaturally avoided his touch.

"Are you tired?" Cheng Shubai looked at Su Xiaoxi's evasive eyes and asked.

"Yeah." Su Xiaoxi responded indifferently.

Upon hearing this, Cheng Shubai stood up, handed the cotton cloth in his hand to his servant, and then took Su Xiaoxi to the table and sat down.

Looking at the bowl of hot soup in front of her, Su Xiaoxi felt warm in her heart.

He is always so caring.

Cheng Shubai looked at Su Xiaoxi's expression and sighed inwardly, it was indeed him who doted on her.

The time he was obedient to her was too short, so he couldn't blame her for not getting used to it.

Taking the bowl from Cheng Shubai's hand, Su Xiaoxi took a spoon and drank.

Cheng Shubai sat opposite Su Xiaoxi and looked at her quietly, with infinite affection in his eyes.

Although the two of them didn't have much contact during this period, he always thought about Su Xiaoxi, and sometimes he couldn't help but imagine how great it would be if Su Xiaoxi was still alive.

In this way, their wedding will not be postponed.

"I've worked hard on you during this time." Suddenly, Cheng Shubai spoke softly, with a hint of apology in his tone.

"It's okay, as long as the people of the world can be well." Su Xiaoxi replied.

When Su Xiaoxi mentioned the plague, her face couldn't help but become serious.

Seeing Su Xiaoxi's changing expression, Cheng Shubai also knew her heartache.

"Don't worry, you have worked so hard, I believe the emperor can also see your efforts."

Su Xiaoxi nodded and said nothing more.

"Your identity has been exposed and you may be in danger. I want to stay with you." After hesitating for a moment, Cheng Shubai spoke.

Su Xiaoxi raised her head, her eyes moist.

She never thought that Cheng Shubai would consider herself so much.

"Don't think nonsense, I just don't want to see you get hurt." Cheng Shubai added as if he had seen through Su Xiaoxi's thoughts.

Su Xiaoxi lowered her eyes, hiding the disappointment in her eyes, "Thank you."

"Fool!" gently rubbing Su Xiaoxi's hair, Cheng Shubai's eyes were full of depth, as if he wanted to absorb Su Xiaoxi's whole body.

……

The next day, when Su Xiaoxi opened her eyes, the sun was already shining.

After looking around, Su Xiaoxi confirmed that she was lying on the bed in the room. What happened last night?Why did she fall asleep?

Su Xiaoxi rolled over and got up, but found that her whole body was sore and weak, and it was difficult to even move.

Su Xiaoxi tried to prop up her body, but found that she couldn't do it.

"Ah!" With a low cry, Su Xiaoxi suddenly remembered that she was injured.

"Madam, you're awake." At this moment, a familiar voice came into my ears.

Looking towards the source of the sound, Su Xiaoxi suddenly found Cheng Shubai walking towards her with a bowl of porridge.

"What's wrong with me?" Looking at Cheng Shubai's handsome and elegant face, Su Xiaoxi asked with a frown.

Cheng Shubai did not speak, but quickly walked to the bed and helped Su Xiaoxi sit up, "Come, let's eat something first."

With that said, Cheng Shubai fed Su Xiaoxi porridge.

Although Su Xiaoxi was in constant pain, she could not resist when faced with Cheng Shubai.

In other words, in her subconscious, she wanted to accept Cheng Shubai.

However, whenever she was ready to accept Cheng Shubai, she couldn't help thinking that Cheng Xuyang would marry the seventh princess in the future.

Thinking about it, Su Xiaoxi suddenly felt that her chest was unusually tight. She couldn't help but cover her chest, gritted her teeth, and endured it.

Cheng Shubai saw this and immediately stopped moving, staring at Su Xiaoxi anxiously, "What's wrong?"

Su Xiaoxi calmed down for a while, then released her palms and shook her head, "It's okay."

After speaking, continue to eat.

Seeing this, Cheng Shubai's brows tightened and his gaze at Su Xiaoxi became softer.

Su Xiaoxi lowered her head and ate in silence. Regardless of whether she admitted it or not, when she saw Cheng Shubai's worried face, she felt moved in her heart.

"What's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?" Cheng Shubai asked worriedly, holding Su Xiaoxi's arm with both hands.

Sensing Cheng Shubai's nervousness, Su Xiaoxi smiled and reassured: "It's really okay, I just think this porridge is so delicious."

Su Xiaoxi's coquettish act made Cheng Shubai stunned for a moment.

He had never seen Su Xiaoxi act coquettishly before. The feeling was really strange and at the same time it added a different kind of temptation.

Cheng Shubai's throat rolled, and then he turned his attention to the porridge in the bowl.

He remembered that this porridge was cooked specially for Su Xiaoxi in the kitchen. Normally, he would not let Su Xiaoxi eat anything cooked by others, but this porridge was the only one.

Just because he knew Su Xiaoxi liked it.

Now, looking at the crystal clear and fragrant rice porridge in the bowl, Cheng Shubai's mouth curved slightly.

"Since you like it, I will let the kitchen help you every day from now on."

Cheng Shubai's words were gentle and calm, but Su Xiaoxi's eyes turned red.

She knew that Cheng Shubai was afraid that she would be under too much pressure, so he wanted to reduce her burden.

How can one not love such a man?

only……

Thinking about it, Su Xiaoxi couldn't help but feel a little sad, but she recovered in an instant and smiled at Cheng Shubai.

She figured out that since she was destined to not be able to give Cheng Shubai anything in return, she shouldn't waste any more time.

Su Xiaoxi suddenly understood that loving someone was like this. She wanted to protect him, even if the road would be bumpy.

But she will work hard and persist. As long as she thinks it is worth it, she will do it. What Cheng Shubai saw was a smiling face, and his heart suddenly moved.

"Okay, after I arrange things here properly, I will go back to accompany you." He had been planning this for a long time, and he was just one chance away from leaving.

"Yes." Su Xiaoxi responded softly, lowered her head and continued eating.She didn't dare to tell Cheng Shubai what she was thinking now, after all, it was betraying Jun Yushu.

"By the way, how long have I been unconscious?" Su Xiaoxi asked casually.

"Five days." Cheng Shubai replied.

"I was in a coma for five days? What should those people do?" Su Xiaoxi was shocked.

According to the plan, she should study the prescriptions when she woke up in the morning.

"You don't have to worry about this, your toxin is gone." As he said, Cheng Shubai took out another porcelain bottle and handed it to Su Xiaoxi, "Here is the detoxification pill. Take it and leave the rest to me."

As he spoke, Cheng Shubai's eyes flashed with some determination.
