But just after waking up and realizing that he was being sucked blood by a poisonous snake, he fainted again from fright.

"Linglong, Linglong, wake up."

Su Mubai wanted to pinch her philtrum again, but when he saw her red and swollen philtrum, he finally held back.

It's only a cup of tea anyway, so it's better to wait a while. Otherwise, waking her up repeatedly and making her faint repeatedly will be more tormenting.

After a long wait, it was finally time for a cup of tea, and Su Mubai immediately fed Zhao Linglong the antidote.

But the problem is, the antidote has been fed, but Zhao Linglong can't take her hand back. What should she do?

Su Mubai was so anxious that he almost went bald, and he could only pinch Zhao Linglong to wake her up again.

"Don't faint yet. The time has come. How are you going to get your hand out?"

Zhao Linglong's face was pale. She tremblingly pulled out a pair of scissors from under her butt and cut the rope with two clicks.

When she stretched out her hand, it was covered in blood, and the bite wound was still oozing blood.

When Zhao Linglong saw the blood on her hands, she wanted to faint again.

When Su Mubai saw the shocking wound, his heart ached and he didn't even dare to look at it for another second.

"I'll go wash the wound. Lin Shuangshuang left some ointment. Just apply it and it will stop the bleeding."

Su Mubai's voice was choked with sobs. He opened his mouth but couldn't utter a word for a long time. He was afraid that he would burst into tears as soon as he opened his mouth.

He was a grown man crying in front of a woman and he didn't want anyone to see his embarrassing scene.

Zhao Linglong forced a smile: "Brother Mu Bai, I'm fine."

"These are just superficial injuries. Just apply some medicine and they will be fine."

Su Mubai buried his head in the quilt, and Zhao Linglong watched the quilt trembling slightly.

Is he...crying?

Seeing him like this, Zhao Linglong pouted and almost cried out.

"Brother Mu Bai, I'll go clean the wound first."

"You take a nap, I'll make you something to eat."

After saying that, Zhao Linglong picked up the lid and covered the jar, then she stretched out her trembling hands and held the jar in her arms as she went to the yard.

Zhao Linglong placed the jar in the bamboo basket and shook the rope. The bells on the rope made a series of crisp sounds.

Soon, Dong'er poked his head out from the roof of the second floor next door, slowly reeled in the rope, and hung the bamboo basket up.

Dong'er took back the jar and put the basket back down, with an extra bottle of ointment in it.

"My young lady said this is Yunnan Baiyao, it is very effective in stopping bleeding."

"Stop the bleeding first, then apply medicine to clear away heat, detoxify, reduce swelling and relieve pain."

Zhao Linglong had a strange expression on her face and thanked him somewhat uncomfortably.

If Lin Shuangshuang was not the woman Su Mubai liked, perhaps he would be happy to make friends with her.

There seemed to be some kind of magic about that woman that made people want to get close to her.

It’s a pity that the man she deeply loves likes Lin Shuangshuang, which means she is destined not to be friends with Lin Shuangshuang.

In the next few days, Zhao Linglong was frightened to death by various poisons almost every day, and she stayed by Su Mubai's bedside all the time.

Su Mu looked at her bloodstained hands, and saw that her eyes were bloodshot because she had been taking care of him day and night, and her body was getting thinner at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Even so, she still insisted on wiping his body, changing his bed sheets, quilts, underwear and shirts every day, doing her best and taking care of him in every possible way.

Such gentle and considerate care, such life-saving care, even his biological mother could not do it.

But Zhao Linglong did it, not because of her ability, but because the power of love supported her.

If not for this, she would have collapsed long ago. How could he not be moved by such infatuation?

Lin Shuangshuang was right. He had missed it once in his previous life, and he couldn't repeat the same mistake in this life.

What he should do is cherish the person in front of him, instead of dwelling on the regrets of his past life, clinging to them and holding on to them.

Doing so will only make you unhappy, bring trouble to others, and cause you to lose true love again.

So, at this moment Su Mubai figured it out. If he could survive this time, he would definitely live a good life with Zhao Linglong, make it up to her, and cherish her.

In fact, he and Zhao Linglong are a perfect match made in heaven.

If he forced himself to be with Lin Shuangshuang, he could not guarantee that his parents would accept Lin Shuangshuang's status as a widow, let alone her two children.

It may even bring her danger and disaster. When unsuitable people are forced together, the ending is bound to be unhappy.

This is unfair to Lin Shuangshuang. His obsession may ruin her current peaceful and healthy life.

This is not the result he wanted to see!

God has been kind to him and given him a chance to be reborn. He must cherish it and not commit suicide again.

As for the guilt towards Lin Shuangshuang, I can only compensate her in another way.

For example, help her when she is in trouble, lend a helping hand when she needs it, instead of kidnapping her in the name of love.

After realizing this, Su Mubai felt much more relaxed. In addition to heartache and emotion, there was also a hint of tenderness in his eyes as he looked at Zhao Linglong.

Zhao Linglong seemed to feel his burning gaze on her, and asked nervously, "Brother Mu Bai, what's wrong with you?"

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

"But there's dirt on my face?"

Zhao Linglong asked, and rubbed her face with her hands that were swollen like ten carrots.

This slightly clumsy action was actually a little cute in Su Mubai's eyes, but more of it was heartache.

Su Mubai reached out and held her hands, and asked softly, "Does it hurt?"

Zhao Linglong looked at the pain in the man's eyes, and felt bitter in her heart. She shook her head aggrievedly: "It doesn't hurt."

"The ointment Lin Shuangshuang gave me is very useful. It's cool and doesn't hurt at all."

"My hand looks scary, but it's actually okay."

Su Mubai felt even worse when he heard her words of comforting him.

He held her hand and blew on it gently, then lowered his head and kissed the wound lightly. Zhao Linglong screamed and quickly retracted her hand.

"Brother Su Mu, it's dirty... apply medicine."

"Rinse your mouth quickly. This ointment is for external use only and cannot be taken internally..."

Zhao Linglong didn't care about the pain in her hand at all and immediately poured him some water to rinse his mouth.

Su Mubai did not reach out to take the teacup, but looked at her deeply, and said in a pleasant voice: "Linglong, it's great to have you."

"It is my great fortune to meet you."

“Only those who have experienced life and death can see some people and things clearly.”

"Linglong, I was wrong before, can you forgive me?"

"When I get better, I will definitely pass the imperial examination and marry you again in style."

"Although you are no longer a princess, I will fight for your royal title and let you regain your noble status."

Zhao Linglong was already in tears when she listened to Su Mubai's affectionate confession. Her hesitant eyes seemed to express all the grievances she had suffered, and she also seemed to feel that everything was worth it.
