After rebirth, I kidnapped the sickly Dugong

The night is as cold as water.

Wen Baizhi, however, was not sleepy at all.

She looked at Si Jiu, who was still holding her clothes while sleeping, and gradually understood something.

Since her rebirth, her feelings for Si Jiu have always been gradual.

She knew clearly that she just felt sorry for him before and couldn't bear to see him suffer like that.

But I don’t know when this heartache started to change.

It's not like she didn't notice the change in her attitude towards him.

But she still felt a little resistant in her heart.

It's not that she is against Si Jiu, but she doesn't believe that there is a love that belongs to her in this world.

After all, her feelings for Si Jiu now really go beyond the concern between friends.

But it hasn't reached the stage of love yet.

She didn't mind Si Jiu's body, nor did she mind that he was a eunuch.

She just wanted to follow her heart.

Maybe it would be better to give it time.

She had the patience to wait.

The next morning, Wen Baizhi woke up first, which was rare.

When Si Jiu woke up, he saw breakfast already prepared.

After he vomited blood yesterday, he knew that he couldn't live without Wen Baizhi.

No matter what she thought of him, as long as she didn't leave him and he still had value that she could see, that was enough.

He did not ask for her love, he only hoped that she would have a little mercy on him.

This is enough.

So he shook his head, getting rid of all the thoughts that shouldn't have existed in his mind yesterday.

When Wen Baizhi came back, what she saw was Si Jiu sitting on the couch in a daze.

She chuckled and walked over to him: "Go wash up when you wake up, you can have breakfast."

Si Jiu was awakened by her call, and he threw off the quilt and got off the bed with a cry.

Coincident with what he thought, Wen Baizhi did not intend to explain to him what happened yesterday.

One is that I'm afraid that he will be irritated again after I explain.

Second, Wen Baizhi is waiting, waiting for an opportunity to fall completely in love with Si Jiu.

After washing up, Si Jiu sat down at the table.

He saw that the two people's bowls were filled with white, round objects.

He picked up one with a spoon and asked: "What is this?"

Wen Baizhi knew that they had never eaten tangyuan, so she explained, "This is a delicacy from my hometown, called tangyuan. It is made by rolling glutinous rice flour into balls, adding some things like sesame and peanuts according to your taste, wrapping them together, and then cooking them in a pot before eating."

Si Jiu found it novel and put the dumpling into his mouth.

“I added sesame seeds in it. You can’t taste them, but they are very fragrant. You should be able to feel it.”

Wen Baizhi said as she ate a dumpling from her bowl.

When Si Jiu bit into the glutinous rice ball, the sesame filling inside rolled out one after another. It was soft and fragrant, and just as Wen Baizhi said, very sweet.

"Delicious." He commented.

Wen Baizhi always makes delicious food, and even Si Jiu's difficult stomach can be satisfied every time.

Wen Baizhi raised her eyebrows proudly: "I made this myself according to the recipe in my mind, and slowly experimented with Cuizhi. It must be delicious."

Si Jiu ate another one and was about to eat the third one when he was stopped by Wen Baizhi.

He looked at her in confusion.

Wen Baizhi explained: "Eating too many glutinous rice balls will cause bloating. You have a bad stomach, so don't eat too much."

Si Jiu felt a little aggrieved: "I only ate two."

Seeing how pitiful he looked, Wen Baizhi softened her heart and said, "You can only eat three at most. If you eat more, you'll have a stomachache."

Si Jiu agreed and ate the third and last glutinous rice dumpling reluctantly.

Wen Baizhi looked at him like this and said with a smile: "I think these sesame seeds are good for you to eat. I will make some sesame-based food later."

Si Jiu kept nodding, which was very cute.

Wen Baizhi was so bewitched by his cute appearance that she almost forgot about the important matter.

She stood up and went to get the cushion she had made yesterday.

Si Jiu knew that this was something she made specially for him, and he felt warm in his heart just seeing it now.

Wen Baizhi squatted beside his legs: "I'll lift up your trouser legs now and help you tie the cushion on, okay?"

During these days, Si Jiu has become very familiar with the fact that she always asks for his opinion before doing anything.

Obviously, as long as it's her, she can do whatever she wants, but she always asks herself.

She gave him respect he had never received before.

Si Jiu bent down and lifted up his trouser legs, revealing his knees covered by only a layer of cloth.

"In that case, I'll trouble you."

Wen Baizhi unfolded the cushion and carefully covered his knees.

She asked, "How do you feel this morning after draining the fluid in this knee yesterday?"

Si Jiu replied: "I feel much better, very relaxed."

Wen Baizhi carefully fastened the straps on the back of the cushion: "You still can't take it lightly. Sit when you can, walk less, and wear this cushion when you kneel. It's better than kneeling on the ground."

Si Jiu looked at her squatting in front of him, busy and chattering, and silently memorized this scene in his heart.

"I've written it all down."

After Wen Baizhi tied the pads on both knees, she stood up and said, "Try to stand up and walk a little to see if it affects your walking. Then see if it's tied too tight and makes you uncomfortable."

Si Jiu stood up as he was told and walked back and forth under Wen Baizhi's expectant gaze.

"How is it?" Wen Baizhi asked anxiously.

Although having something tied to his knees was more or less uncomfortable, Si Jiu could bear it.

She made this for herself.

"It's good, it doesn't affect anything, and it's warm." He added, "I like it very much."

Wen Baizhi patted her chest and said proudly, "I knew you would be satisfied with this one. You don't know, I tried several models before and after, and finally decided on this one. I thought it should be the most suitable size for your knees, but not too big to be easily exposed."

What she was embarrassed to say was that the inspiration for this cushion came from the TV series she watched when she was a child.

Si Jiu felt the soft cushion and said, "As long as it's made by you, I like it."

As soon as these words came out, Wen Baizhi felt her face suddenly become hot.

She hurriedly walked behind Si Jiu and pushed him out of the tent.

"Since the cushions have been tested and are in good condition, you should go on duty. It's getting late, so you should leave quickly."

Because his back was facing her, Si Jiu couldn't see the expression on her face.

He followed her strength and actually walked slowly out of the tent.

He turned around and was about to say something to Wen Baizhi when he saw her running quickly into the tent.

Maybe he was in a hurry to go back and eat that delicious glutinous rice ball.

Thinking this, Si Jiu left.

On the other side, Wen Baizhi retreated into the tent and kept using her hands as a fan to cool herself down.

Crazy, really crazy.

Is my face getting so red and my heart beating so fast just because of his words of thanks?

Crazy crazy.

Wen Baizhi felt that the direction of things was gradually deviating from what she had planned.
