Wu Li's condition was not just an eye problem. All five of her senses were undergoing degenerative changes, but the condition of her eyes was particularly serious, so the other problems were not so prominent.

In addition, the condition of her internal organs was not very good.

Shen Huaixu was not sure what state the green potion could restore her body to, but at least it could save her life.

While the person was still unconscious, she carefully cleaned the external wounds on her body. After doing all this, she moved her sore neck.

I didn’t sleep for long last night and I’m feeling sleepy again.

"Miss, how is this girl?" Xiaoman pulled open the car curtain and saw Shen Huaixu yawning loudly.

Shen Huaixu raised his eyelids and glanced at Wu Li. "I've already given her the medicine. Whether she can wake up depends on herself."

Wu Li must have thought of something that made her so angry. She had done everything she could. Now it depends on Wu Li's wishes.

"Miss, please sleep a little longer. We'll continue our journey later." Xiaoman glanced at Wu Li and complained, "You didn't get enough rest during the journey. You were woken up after only two hours of sleep last night, and you still have to take care of her..."

Shen Huaixu interrupted her quickly, "Then I'll sleep a little longer, you and Shuangjiang keep an eye on her."

***

The group had just arrived at Huai'an Prefecture in the Dajin territory, and Lixia and the others were waiting on horseback at the place they had to pass.

They held weapons in their hands and had expressionless faces. Although they were not vicious and evil, they had killed many people on their hands. It made people feel cold to see them for no reason.

The head of the guard almost thought they were bandits who were robbing the house. Just as he was preparing to be fully alert and fight to the death, he heard Miss Xiaoman shout loudly: "Don't panic, we are one of them!"

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

The people they invited were not going to the same place as them, so Shen Huaixu asked someone to pay the remaining money, leaving only his own people in the team.

Then, they rode as fast as they could to the nearest post station.

After days of traveling, Shen Huaixu could no longer bear the bumpy ride of the carriage, so he got off and rode away.

There were lush trees along the way, so it wasn't too hard.

When they were only four or five miles away from the post station, Shen Huaixu heard Shuangjiang say loudly, "Miss, the girl in the carriage has woken up."

Shen Huaixu reined in his horse and came to the side of the carriage. "How are the people?"

Shuangjiang glanced at the man who didn't say anything, didn't move, and didn't even blink, "Not good."

Xiaoman and Shuangjiang didn't know what great things their young lady had done in Nanxia, ​​but they knew that the changes in the royal family of Nanxia were closely related to their young lady.

They did not do nothing in Nanxia. On the contrary, they found out a lot of information and were afraid that something might happen to Shen Huaixu.

They also had some suspicions in their hearts about the woman the young lady had rescued, but they had not confirmed it.

Shen Huaixu: "Prepare some food and drinks for her, don't worry about anything else, let her figure it out on her own."

The words sounded very cruel, as if the person was not saved by her.

After he finished speaking, Wu Li, who had been silent all this time, blinked slightly.

"Was it your master who saved me?" Her voice was still hoarse, but there was no longer any burning pain.

Frost was a man of few words. He just answered "yes" and said no more.

She put the porridge, which had been simmering on the stove until it was soft, aside to cool and explained to the woman, "It's too hot."

Wu Li struggled to sit up, "I want to meet your master."

Frost looked at her and said, "Wait."

After a while, Shen Huaixu came to the carriage.

As soon as Wu Li woke up, she found that her vision became much clearer, but everything seemed covered by a layer of mist.

At that moment she thought she had gone to the eighteenth level of hell. It was too unreal.

She stared blankly at Shen Huaixu, a man she had only heard of but never seen before. After a moment, she stammered, "Thank you."

The heat of the day was steaming up in the evening, but Shen Huaixu's face and body were not sweating much, and he looked very refreshed. She poured herself a cup of cold tea, drank a sip and then said, "No need to thank me, you haven't given me what you promised to give me yet, and I don't want to pick up corpses.

There is something I still need to tell you. It was the potion left by Wei Nishang that saved you, but it is mine now. If you want to repay me, just repay me."

Wu Li lowered his eyes. He was too thin to look like he used to be. "Such a precious thing should not be used on me."

Shen Huaixu sneered, "You kept saying that you were going to die soon, but I can see that you don't want to die. Why? You don't want to live because of a man?"

Wu Li raised his head hastily, his dead expression fluctuating a little, "How did you know?"

"I don't know." Shen Huaixu said, "I was just testing it out, but I didn't expect to guess it right."

From Wu Li's previous description, she could tell that Wu Li was very cautious. She would test the poison for every meal herself, which meant that she didn't even trust the people around her. But it wasn't surprising, as the people around her should be loyal to the Wu family.

Then the only two people who could hurt her were Wei Nishang and her lover.

A witch is not allowed to have contact with men. Wu Li took such a big risk, she must love her lover very much. People in love generally have a lower IQ, so it is not surprising that she was tricked.

Thinking of this, she looked at Wu Li. Wu Li neither said yes nor no. She hugged herself and rested her chin on her knees.

A clearly defensive posture.

Shen Huaixu didn't want to say anything more. "Think about it carefully. I don't care about other things. Your life is mine now. I decide whether you live or die."

She was about to get off the car when she heard Wu Li speak again.

"He treats me very well." Wu Li's voice was so soft that it was almost inaudible. "Before I met him, no one had ever treated me so well. He remembered all my preferences, and even though he lived in poverty, he always wanted to give me the best he could. I once proposed to spend a night with him, but he refused. He said he couldn't promise me anything yet... Could such a person be fake?"

"You are foolish to covet his kindness to you. He is fully capable of controlling whether he treats you well or badly. In other words, he is the dominant one in your relationship. On the other hand, he even rejected your offer of sex. What else does he want from you?"
