Huo Yan threw the medicine bag in his hand into the arms of the waiter, "Go and boil the medicine. Bring us some light meals later."

"Ah, ah." The waiter nodded quickly.

He watched Su Ruanruan and Huo Yan go upstairs, and when he could no longer see them, he quickly wiped the sweat from his forehead.

This man is so majestic, with cold eyes. Only when he looks at the woman beside him does tenderness appear.

I don’t know what their relationship is.

Fifteen minutes later, the waiter brought two light dishes, two bowls of rice and a bowl of soup.

Huo Yan woke Su Ruanruan up. She really had no appetite, but she still ate a little.

When the waiter collected the bowls, he brought over the boiled bitter medicine.

Su Ruanruan finished drinking with a frown. It was very bitter, just like her mood at the moment.

However, no one used candied fruits to coax her into taking medicine anymore.

Su Ruanruan stood in front of the window, looking at the moon in the sky, and Mu Bai's shadow appeared in her mind.

She really misses him.

She reached out and touched Mu Bai's shadow on the moon, but the illusion disappeared in an instant.

Su Ruanruan stroked her heart which felt as painful as if it was cut by a knife and cried silently.

Huo Yan looked at Su Ruanruan's trembling back with mixed feelings.

He was also the one who was abandoned, but he did not feel that kind of heart-wrenching pain.

Is it that the way men and women express their emotions is different?

But why did he feel pity when he saw Su Ruanruan so weak and helpless?

I really want to use my rough fingertips to wipe away the tears from her eyes.

Huo Yan took a few steps forward and closed the window.

"You are still sick, you can't catch a cold. Go to bed early."

Su Runrun nodded lightly, looked at the bed and then at Huo Yan, feeling a little embarrassed for a moment.

The inn is fully booked today. The waiter said that the most they can afford is one quilt, but there is absolutely no room for sleeping on the floor.

There is only one bed and two quilts. How to sleep?

Huo Yan could see her tangle, so he stood up and walked out, "I'm not sleepy, you go to sleep, I'll go out for a walk."

Su Ruanruan did not stop him. She looked at a chair in the room, then looked at the wide bed, and slept at the innermost part.

She was the one who begged Huo Yan to escort her out. She really had no reason to let him sit on a narrow chair all night.

She glanced at the empty bed next to her and moved in. She placed the soft pillow next to her as a boundary.

After taking the medicine, Su Runrun felt dizzy and fell asleep soon.

Su Ruanruan was not suddenly awakened until she heard the sound of slapping hands outside the window.

She rubbed her aching temple. The candle flame was still flickering, but Huo Yan had not come back yet.

Su Ruanruan dragged her heavy body downstairs. The waiter was sleeping soundly on the chair.

Su Ruanruan knocked on the table in front of him several times before waking him up.

"Excuse me, have you seen the man who came with me?"

The waiter yawned and asked, "That guest has gone out. Hasn't he come back yet?"

Su Ruanruan didn't know where Huo Yan had gone, so she asked the waiter to borrow an umbrella and a lantern.

The sky was pitch black. The weather was so changeable. The moon had long disappeared.

The rain was blown sideways by the wind, and the wet and cold wind blew straight into the body.

The lanterns swayed in the wind. Su Runrun looked at the dark night blankly, with only the sounds of wind and rain in her ears.

There was also endless coldness and desolation, and I wondered where Huo Yan had gone.

She took a few steps forward with her somewhat cold body, and a slightly cold voice sounded behind her.

"Why did you come out? That's ridiculous!"

Su Ruanruan turned around and looked, the soft light of the lantern shone on him.

His brows were slightly furrowed and his lips were pressed into a straight line.

"Are you stupid? You didn't even come back on a rainy day, and you asked me to come out to look for you."

"Come back soon." Su Ruanruan glanced at him and said unhappily.

Huo Yan was leaning against a tree just now. When he saw Su Ruanruan coming out, he quickly jumped down.

This little rain was nothing to him, as he had been caught in the rain all night like this before.

But seeing Su Ruanruan's unhappy look, he followed her into the inn as if possessed.

When he came in, Su Ruanruan was already lying on the bed wrapped up like a silkworm cocoon.

There was a soft pillow next to her, leaving a large empty space for him.

Does this allow him to sleep in the bed?

He took off his wet coat and stood by the bed for a while.

There was indeed no place to sleep in this room. He usually had difficulty falling asleep, but somehow he felt a little sleepy at this moment.

However, it is already inappropriate for a single man and a single woman to be in the same room, and it would be indeed inappropriate if he went to bed with her.

What's more, he has never slept in the same bed with anyone else.

Su Ruanruan's muffled voice came, "Go to sleep quickly, we have to travel early tomorrow."

Huo Yan's throat rolled and he lay down outside the bed.

He touched his own disordered heartbeat and felt an indescribable feeling.

As for what it was, he didn't know.

He turned his head to look at Su Ruanruan, who was some distance away from him and wrapped up like a dumpling. He could only see the back of her head.

I could hear her shallow and even breathing.

Huo Yan simply turned over and lay on his side in the direction of Su Ruanruan, staring at the back of her head for a while.

He was surprised to find that his eyelids were getting heavier...

Outside the window, it rained all night long, and the sky cleared up completely at 9:00 p.m. the next day.

Su Ruanruan couldn't wait to urge Huo Yan to get on the road.

The road was a bit muddy and not easy to walk on. After a while, Liefeng, with his shiny fur, was covered in mud.

Su Ruanruan was staring in a daze at the rainbow that appeared in the sky after the rain.

She didn't believe that Mu Bai had changed his heart. She just hoped that their relationship would be like a rainbow after the rain, seeing the sunshine again after going through the storm.

Liefeng was indeed a good horse, for it ran fast and took a shortcut, and before the hour of You they arrived at a small town outside Lingzhou city.

This small town is surrounded by mountains on both sides, has poor transportation, and is not very prosperous.

Huo Yan asked for two upper rooms.

"Stay here today. You are not well yet and you won't be able to travel any further."

Su Ruanruan agreed reluctantly. Her illness had not yet healed, and she knew how ugly her complexion was. Because she came in a hurry, she didn't even bring a change of clothes.

She didn't want to see Mu Bai like this.

Su Ruanruan sat in the room for a while, then got up and went out.

Huo Yan heard the noise and came out from next door.

"Where are you going?"

"I want to go out for a walk alone." Su Ruanruan said.

"I'll go with you later. Go downstairs and eat something first. The medicine is being boiled."

Su Ruanruan pursed her lips and said, "I have no appetite right now. Captain Huo, you can eat first. You don't have to wait for me. I'm going out to buy some things and will be back soon."

Just as Huo Yan was about to follow him, Su Ruanruan turned back and said, "Captain Huo, you have worked hard these past two days. You don't have to worry about me, and you don't have to follow me."

Huo Yan stood with his hands behind his back, "Okay, then you better be careful."

Su Ruanruan still felt a little weak. Although the fever had subsided, she didn't look very energetic.

She walked aimlessly on the street, and before she found the clothing store, her legs were completely exhausted, so she had no choice but to sit down in front of a tea shop.

Knowing that she was from another place, the tea shop owner enthusiastically told her about the ancient temple at the foot of the mountain.
