As soon as she said these three words, she began to cover her face and cry. This was probably the first time she faced Leng Yiyan at such a close distance after coming to Prince Yan's Mansion.

Leng Yiyan frowned slightly and asked:

"I'm not dead, why are you crying?"

"I'm sorry, Brother Yan, I didn't mean that, I just..."

“Just think I’m pitiful?”

Mo Xiaowan did not refute, so Leng Yiyan guessed that he was right.

He laughed at himself.

"Don't worry about me, Miss Xiaowan. I'm fine. I can lie down every day without moving. Someone feeds me and someone takes care of my excrement and urine. This is a blessing that many people can't even dream of..."

"Brother Yan, I know you said that out of anger. Actually, at the beginning... I wanted to marry you, but... but fate played tricks on me. I'm sorry."

This sentence aroused Luo Nianxi's curiosity, and she pricked up her ears to listen.

Leng Yiyan interrupted her directly.

"Miss Xiaowan, you don't have to say sorry. I am already a useless person. How dare I marry Miss Xiaowan?"

That sour tone?

Luo Nianxi immediately felt as if she had been enlightened.

It seems that there is some story between these two people?

Just when she wanted to get more information from their conversation, Leng Rujing deliberately pulled her back.

"Princess Yan, I'll take you outside to look at the flowers and plants. Are you satisfied?"

"I……"

Luo Nianxi wanted to say that she would not go, but seeing that the man seemed to be in love with the woman, her legs uncontrollably followed him out.

Seeing the two of them leave, Mo Xiaowan suddenly took two steps forward and looked at Leng Yiyan with red eyes.

"Brother Yan, I really don't dislike you, I just can't help it..."

"Miss Xiaowan, don't mention the past anymore. I have already forgotten it."

"No, Brother Yan, I came to see you several times, but you refused to see me alone. I know you are blaming me. When the Queen wanted to choose a concubine for you, I really wanted to accept it, but...but I can't do that. I can't help myself."

She wanted to say that her aunt, Concubine Rong, did not allow her to do that, and her own father did not allow her to do that either, but she swallowed the words back when they came to her lips.

She couldn't let Leng Yiyan hate them.

"I said, there's no need to talk about these things anymore, Miss Xiaowan, I'm tired, you can go back now!"

"No, Brother Yan, although I can't sleep with you, can you please let me accompany you? I know that I am sorry for you. I promised you that after you came back from attacking the Northern Chu Kingdom, we would ask the emperor for permission to marry you, but who could have thought..."

"Stop talking."

Leng Yiyan suddenly shouted loudly, and Guo Wei and Ling Xiao outside heard the sound and rushed in together.

"Your Majesty..."

"Please go out, Miss Xiaowan. I'm tired."

Seeing this, Guo Wei hurriedly took two steps forward.

"Miss Xiaowan, please go back!"

Mo Xiaowan looked at him with tears in her eyes, biting her lips tightly with her teeth, feeling indescribable in her heart.

Seeing that she was standing there without moving, Guo Wei reminded her again.

"Miss Xiaowan, please go back!"

She raised the handkerchief in her hand and wiped the corners of her eyes, looked at Leng Yiyan again, then turned around and left, looking back every few steps.

Leng Yiyan closed his eyes slightly, took a long breath, and felt indescribable bitterness in his heart.

At dinner time in the evening, Luo Nianxi helped him sit down and then began to feed him.

After enduring for a long time, she still asked out of curiosity about her doubts.

"What is the relationship between you and Mo Xiaowan?"

"It's ok."

He denied it quickly before he could swallow the food in his mouth.

"No, I saw her crying when she talked to you. Besides, if you two had no relationship, would she come here and live for so long?"

After a long silence, he finally spoke up when he realized he couldn't hide it anymore.

"When she first entered the palace at the age of sixteen, we fell in love with each other. We privately agreed that when I turned eighteen, we would ask my father for permission to marry me. But on the day before my eighteenth birthday, because the Northern Chu Kingdom repeatedly harassed the normal lives of the people in the northern part of Dongyang Kingdom, my father ordered Leng Yicheng and I to go to the Northern Chu Kingdom to fight. Before we left, we agreed that no matter how long she was away, she would wait for me, and we would get married after I came back..."

At this point, he lowered his head somewhat dejectedly. Luo Nianxi shrugged mockingly.

"When you came back, you became what you are now. Didn't she fulfill her original promise?"

"It's not her fault. No woman would be willing to marry me in this state."

Luo Nianxi nodded in agreement.

"You are right. If I hadn't been forced by my father, I would never have married you. However, I am really surprised that there is such a story between you two. Now that Mo Xiaowan has come to Prince Yan's Mansion again, I am afraid she can't let you go, right? Why don't you be together again after I heal you?"

"hehe!"

He suddenly laughed at himself.

"A broken heart can never be restored. Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. I'm full, so you should eat too!"

Luo Nianxi picked up the handkerchief and wiped the corners of his mouth.

"Okay, then you sit for a while, I'll go eat..."

Luo Nianxi felt it was a pity to have such a story about him and Mo Xiaowan.

Looking at Mo Xiaowan's expression just now, it seemed that she still had feelings for Leng Yiyan. No wonder she hated her so much. It turned out that she regarded herself as a love rival. Hehehe! This time she finally found the reason.

Thinking of this, she smiled helplessly.

Leng Yiyan, who was sitting on the bed, looked at her eating and grinning foolishly, and an unnatural smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

He wasn't sure how long it had been since he last laughed, he seemed to have forgotten he could laugh.

Ten days later

Today was the day to remove Leng Yiyan's stitches. Before dawn, Luo Nianxi got up and pushed Leng Yiyan beside her.

"Hey, wake up."

In fact, Leng Yiyan just closed his eyes and did not sleep.

To be more precise, he didn't sleep a wink that night.

He was looking forward to dawn. He wanted to verify whether what Luo Nianxi said was true, and whether his hands could really move freely.

The moment he opened his eyes, Luo Nianxi couldn't help but exclaimed,

"Oh my god, why do you have dark circles under your eyes? Didn't you sleep well?"

He shook his head somewhat embarrassedly.

"Can't sleep..."

"You haven't slept all night?"

He nodded slightly.

you……

Luo Nianxi didn't know what to say, but she could understand his feelings.

She got out of bed, walked to the table, lit the oil lamp on the table, pushed the stool to the front of the bed, put the oil lamp on the stool, then closed her eyes, put her hands together in front of her chest, took a deep breath, and muttered something.

"It's time to witness a miracle..."

When she opened her eyes, she saw Leng Yiyan also had his eyes slightly closed and seemed to be muttering something.

She guessed that he must be praying too...

After helping him sit up, she used her mind to retrieve the stitch-removing tools from the hospital, then opened the bandage on his hand and began to carefully remove the stitches.

Only after she had untied the last thread on her right hand did she nod with satisfaction and smile.

"The wound has healed well. Now move a little and try..."
