At this time, Mu Zhou, who was standing next to him, had been holding Du Ran's hand and chattering, reminiscing about the past and looking forward to the future. He had not yet noticed that Du Ran on the ice bed had opened his eyes.

"Xiao Ran, when you wake up, we will go to live in seclusion in the mountains. You don't have to do anything. I will never let you do anything dangerous again. I will pick wild fruits for you in the morning, go to the river to catch fish for you at noon, and at night..."

"Mu Zhou, I'm so cold. Can we get up and go out first?" Du Ran's teeth were chattering with cold. She felt that if she lay down for another second, the six months of life she had recharged would be wasted.

Mu Zhou thought he was hallucinating, and was stunned for a moment. He continued to stroke Du Ran's somewhat cold hand, muttering: "I don't need any money or power, I just want you! Xiao Ran, did you hear me? Wake up quickly, you have been sleeping for a long time, just wait, I will go to accompany you, and I will never let you be alone."

"Stop talking nonsense. If you keep nagging me, I'll die again!" Du Ran tried to get up, but her whole body was stiff and it hurt so much to move. She wondered if she was paralyzed.

"Mu Zhou, wake up! I'm still alive!" Du Ran shouted loudly.

Mu Zhou's originally gloomy eyes suddenly brightened up, he looked up, surprised!

Du Ran turned his head and looked at him: "Grandpa, who are you?"

"Xiao Ran! You really woke up! That's great!" After saying that, Mu Zhou actually sobbed, with tears falling down his face.

Du Ran's eyes also became moist. Although she had been a soul for so many days and had seen Mu Zhou cry several times, she still couldn't help but feel the warmth of his tears.

Mu Zhou carefully carried Du Ran down from the ice bed, then walked out gently, fearing that if he used a little more strength Du Ran would leave him again, and also afraid that this was just a dream.

These days, he always felt that Du Ran had woken up in his half-asleep state, so he was a little worried.

"Liu Xihua! Liu Xihua!" Mu Zhou shouted as he walked.

Liu Xihua had sharp ears and thought something big had happened, so he quickly ran over here.

But he saw Mu Zhou holding Du Ran.

From a distance, Liu Xihua thought that Mu Zhou came out with Du Ran's body. Without the ice bed, even if his medicine was powerful, he wouldn't last more than an hour. What was Mu Zhou doing...

"Brother Mu, why did you carry her out? This will..."

"Hurry up and check on Xiao Ran, she's awake!" Mu Zhou's eyes were sparkling, and the fatigue of so many days was gone.

"Ah?" Liu Xihua thought Mu Zhou was talking nonsense.

"Ah, what is that? Come and see me quickly. Why do I feel so much pain all over my body?" Du Ran urged.

Liu Xihua couldn't believe it. Du Ran really woke up, and from the sound of his voice, he was in full energy.

"Boss! You're really awake!" It only took Liu Xihua one second to go from surprise to ecstasy.

Mu Zhou gently put her on the bed and covered her with a quilt. Only then did Du Ran feel her body warm up.

Liu Xihua quickly took Du Ran's pulse.

"Boss, your pulse is very stable and strong. It seems that there is nothing wrong with you. It should be because you have been lying on the ice bed for too long. You will be fine after two days of rest." Liu Xihua said with emotion, "Boss, you are really the chosen one. You can recover so well from such a serious injury. This is the first time I have encountered such a thing in all my years of practicing medicine!"

"Of course, I just got married to Mu Zhou, how can I bear to leave him!" Du Ran looked at Mu Zhou with a smile: "If I don't wake up, he will almost become an old grandfather."

"Xiao Ran, are you disgusted with me?" Mu Zhou smiled.

Liu Xihua knew that he was a light bulb, so he said tactfully: "I'll go make some nourishing soup for the shopkeeper, and tell others about this great news!"

Then Du Ran and Mu Zhou were the only ones left in the room.

"Mu Zhou, you definitely don't believe what I've been through!" Du Ran started talking, wishing he could sum it up in one sentence. However, this incident was quite sci-fi and it might be difficult to explain it in just one or two sentences.

"Have you heard of the rebirth system?"

"Have you ever heard of life recharge? It doesn't sound reliable at all, right?"

"I've actually turned into a spirit. I'm right above my body. I can hear everything you say to me, but I can't react in any way that you can feel, because I'm a spirit."

"I only have one and a half years to live now. If I don't have money, I will still die. So I have to work hard to make money and recharge my life span so that I can stay with you forever!"

"Five thousand taels a year, and I'm not allowed to borrow. From now on, I have to work hard to make money just to survive!" Du Ran sighed, "Other people make money to live a life of luxury, but I work so hard just to survive. Why am I so unlucky!"

Mu Zhou just listened quietly. He never thought that one day listening to Du Ran talking would be such a happy thing, even though he didn't quite understand what Du Ran was saying, maybe he was talking nonsense.

"You said I sacrificed my life in exchange for Yu Chengfeng's kingdom, so it's not too much for him to reward me with some silver! This is not a loan, it's the result of my hard work!" Du Ran calculated, "It doesn't have to be too much, five thousand taels will be fine! After all, what I got in exchange is the entire kingdom!"

"Of course! Don't just say five thousand taels! Ten thousand taels will do!" Yu Chengfeng's voice came from the door.

Du Ran's eyes lit up and he thought, how great it is, I can live another year!

"Du Ran, you finally woke up! Forget about the money. This throne was originally yours. I promised Brother Mu and Imperial Doctor Liu that when you wake up, the throne will be yours anytime!"

"Can you be so generous?" Du Ran looked at him sideways, his eyes full of disbelief.

"Don't look at me like that! I mean what I say!" Yu Chengfeng immediately patted his chest and promised.

"You are so kind! I don't want your throne, but you have to write me an agreement. If I do any business in the future, you have to promise to give me a backdoor!" Du Ran demanded.

Yu Chengfeng nodded: "Absolutely!"

"Don't forget the five thousand taels you gave me!"

"Give it to me now!" Yu Chengfeng quickly ordered the eunuch behind him to get the banknotes.

"That's more like it!" Du Ran smiled.

"The gate of this palace will always be open to you from now on. You can come whenever you want. This room will also be reserved for you. I will send someone to clean it every day!" Yu Chengfeng promised.

"Yu Chengfeng, what do you mean? Are you going to kill us now? Are you going to drive us away now?" Liu Xihua looked at him coldly, "I knew you had bad intentions!"

"That's not what I meant! I just wanted to express my sincerity!" Yu Chengfeng quickly explained.

"Come on! You are a person who..." Liu Xihua shook his head.

"Doctor Liu, what's wrong with me? Am I not good enough to you?" Yu Chengfeng was speechless.

"Hmph! The cat cries over the mouse, it's just crocodile tears!" Liu Xihua didn't buy it.
