I wish you peace and love

Hearing this question, Hong Chen quickly replied: "He is awake. I just went in to ask the master if he wants to eat."

After saying this, Hong Chen stood quietly waiting for Shen Yunxi's next instructions.

But when she learned that Lu Xiche had woken up, Shen Yunxi's heart suddenly became conflicted.

In fact, her purpose of coming here was very simple, she just wanted to personally confirm Lu Xiche's condition.

After all, her feelings for him are there, and it's impossible for her not to care or worry.

But when she thought about facing Lu Xiche at this moment, especially before the matter between him and that woman was completely clarified, she couldn't help but feel timid and retreat.

Because she was afraid that once she saw that familiar face was sick, she would be softened by him inadvertently and lose her rationality and judgment.

So she said to Hong Chen, "Since I'm awake, I won't go in. I'm leaving."

Hong Chen was simply surprised by this sudden change of attitude.

The words were full of doubt and confusion.

He stared blankly at the beautiful woman in front of him. After a while, he came to his senses and asked hurriedly, "Madam, where are you going?"

"Looking for a place to live." She answered casually.

"Don't you live in the master's house?"

"Can't stop."

Hong Chen asked again: "Where is the lady going to live?"

"Anywhere, as long as it's not here."

It was not until this moment that Hong Chen remembered that Mr. Lin had told him about the quarrel between the master and his mistress.

Now it seems that the lady is so determined not to live here, the conflict between the two must have not been resolved, and the relationship is still as tense as before...

"I'm leaving now, take care of your master."

Shen Yunxi had just turned around to leave after giving her instructions, but suddenly turned her head to look at him after thinking of something and added, "By the way, don't tell Lu Xiche that I was here. I'll come and talk to him after he recovers."

Hong Chen didn't respond but just nodded with a puzzled look on his face.

At this second, a crisp sound of a bottle breaking was suddenly heard in the room, catching everyone off guard. Hong Chen's expression changed instantly when he heard it.

Almost at the same time, Shen Yunxi, who had just turned around and was about to leave, was also startled by the sudden sound of the bottle breaking.

Her heart trembled suddenly and an ominous premonition came over her.

"What happened?" She and Hong Chen looked at each other.

Is it...

All kinds of bad situations that might happen emerged involuntarily in her mind, especially when she thought that Lu Xiche was still seriously ill, she became extremely anxious.

Without any hesitation, Shen Yunxi threw aside all his worries, turned around quickly like an arrow, pushed the door open, and rushed into the room.

"Lu Xiche! What's wrong with you? What happened?"

Her eyes searched everywhere anxiously for Lu Xiche's figure, and when her sight swept over the familiar figure of the man sitting beside the bed, her heart finally settled down.

Fortunately, he is fine...

The man sitting on the edge of the bed was thirsty and wanted to drink some water, so he reached out to get the water on the bedside table. However, because he was absent-minded, he accidentally dropped the water as soon as he touched it.

At this moment, the voice that could not be more familiar reached Lu Xiche's ears. His pupils suddenly dilated and he turned his head quickly in disbelief, his eyes heading straight towards the door.

When he saw the person whom he had been thinking about day and night and worried about for many days standing in his bedroom, a look of astonishment instantly flashed across that handsome face which looked a little pale due to illness.

"Yun Xi..."

Lu Xiche called out the name almost subconsciously.

Shen Yunxi reacted suddenly when she heard Lu Xiche calling her with a hoarse voice due to illness.

Realizing that she had rushed into Lu Xiche's room without caring about anything because she was overly worried about him, she became at a loss as to what to do facing Lu Xiche.

The whole person seemed to be under a spell, standing still, motionless, just staring blankly at the man in front of him.

Hong Chen, who followed in, finally felt relieved after seeing that his master was not seriously injured.

He had planned to clean up the broken bottles on the ground immediately, but at this moment, he was so perceptive that he noticed the strange atmosphere between the two people in the room. Hong Chen very tactfully chose to quietly leave the room, leaving this space to the lovers so that they could solve the problems between them.

"Why are you here?" After a brief silence, Lu Xiche asked again.

In addition to the joy that he could not conceal, his words also contained a hint of caution and disbelief that he himself was not even aware of.

She should be in China.

Fortunately, he was bedridden today because of a fever and unable to get up, otherwise once he returned to China, he would definitely miss her who came to find him.

Thinking of this, Lu Xiche couldn't help but feel secretly relieved.

After hearing his words, Shen Yunxi should have sneered and said something like, "Maybe you saw me coming over here and you're afraid of disturbing him and his flirtation with others." But when she saw how weak he was, she suddenly felt reluctant and changed her tone, "I...I'll leave now."

"I won't bother you..."

At this moment, not only did Shen Yunxi not have any intention of questioning him, but her expression also seemed a little flustered. She lowered her head, her eyes flickering, as if she didn't dare to look directly at the man in front of her.

As soon as she finished speaking, she turned around and walked hurriedly towards the door, as if she wanted to escape from this place as soon as possible.

But before she could step out of the door, a tall figure appeared behind her like a ghost, stretched out his arms and hugged her tightly.

"Don't go." The man's hoarse and low voice sounded in her ears, with a hint of pleading.

As if afraid that she would run away, he hugged her so tightly that Shen Yunxi could clearly feel the man's strong heartbeat coming through her back, shaking her heartstrings again and again, making her already panicked heart even more uneasy.

"Lu Xiche, let me go and let me leave!" Shen Yunxi struggled hard, trying to pry open the man's hands that were tightly wrapped around her waist, but to no avail.

what's the situation?

This guy is obviously sick!

And he looks quite ill, so why does he still have so much strength?

"Do not."

The man's broad and strong arms still held her tightly, as if he was afraid that if he let go, the person in front of him would disappear like smoke.

"let me go."

The man said in a low voice: "Xi'er, it's all my fault. It's all my fault."

When Shen Yunxi heard the man admit his mistake and apologize to her in person, the taut string in her heart instantly broke.

Her eyes began to turn red uncontrollably, and tears quickly gathered and swirled in her eyes, ready to burst out in the next second.

"I said let go!" Her voice trembled slightly.

"Please, don't go..." The man slowly and gently rested his head on Shen Yunxi's fair and slender neck, his tone filled with endless pleading and attachment.

Shen Yunxi raised her head, trying hard to hold back the tears that were about to fall. She knew very well that if she let the tears flow freely at this moment, perhaps the defense she had built up with great difficulty would be easily broken again.

Lu Xiche held Shen Yunxi like this, and she was surprisingly quiet and did not struggle.

Time passed by and neither of them spoke again.

But because the other person is by my side, the things that were once missing in my heart are gradually warming up bit by bit.

Finally, after a long silence, Shen Yunxi trembled her lips slightly, as if she had spent a lot of effort to slowly open them, and squeezed out a few words from her throat with difficulty: "I won't leave, can you... let me go first?"

The sound was as light as the ripples caused by the breeze blowing across the lake.

Hearing this, Lu Xiche said without hesitation: "No!"

The tone was so firm that no one could question it.

Shen Yunxi took a deep breath and continued, "You believe me."

Lu Xiche asked, "Are you really not leaving?"

He needed to get a positive answer once again before he could completely let go of his worry.

Shen Yunxi responded: "Well, I won't leave."

At least she would never leave easily until his illness was cured and she had completely figured out what kind of relationship existed between him and that woman.

Seeing this, Lu Xiche's tense expression relaxed a little, "Okay."

As soon as he finished speaking, he reluctantly let go of the arms that were hugging the girl.

Unexpectedly, just after being untied, Shen Yunxi actually did not leave.

She took a deep breath, as if she had mustered all her courage, and slowly turned around.

Then, she raised her eyes slightly and stared straight at Lu Xiche's face in front of her.

At this moment, Lu Xiche was wearing loose pajamas and his hair was disheveled, just like the dry grass after a strong wind.

His originally fair complexion now looked a little pale, as if it had lost its healthy color of the past.

Looking more closely, he seemed to have lost a little weight, and his whole body exuded an indescribable air of decadence from head to toe, like a flower that once bloomed beautifully but quickly withered and died in just two days.

Seeing Lu Xiche like this, Shen Yunxi's heart twitched violently.

It's only been two short days!

How could he become so miserable?

This sudden change was so shocking that it caught people off guard.

In a trance, Shen Yunxi even began to doubt her own eyes. Is this really the Lu Xiche that she knew?

Why would that man who held a high position, was extremely dazzling, full of vigor and vitality, and seemed like a god descending from heaven, undergo such a drastic change in such a short period of time?

Is it all because of her?

This question weighed heavily on Shen Yunxi's heart like a huge rock, making it almost impossible for her to breathe.

The pair of eyes that looked at him were as bright as stars, and on the surface they seemed calm and peaceful. But deep within that seemingly calm state, a trace of indescribable heartache quietly emerged.

After a long while, she finally calmed down a little and asked softly: "How...how do you feel now?"

"It hurts." The man stared at her and said slowly.

Even though he knew that this was not what Shen Yunxi was asking, he still said this.

When Shen Yunxi heard this, his expression paused.

I don’t know which question Lu Xiche was answering.

After a moment of silence, he chose to avoid the emotional issue for the time being, and took over the conversation, actually trying to change the subject, "Your head still hurts, right? Eat first, then take medicine, and then go back to sleep."

Lu Xiche said slowly, "Okay."

"Then wait in the room. I'll go out and bring you food."

As soon as Shen Yunxi finished speaking, Lu Xiche said hurriedly, "No, I can eat in the restaurant."

How could Shen Yunxi not hear that this guy was obviously afraid that she would take the opportunity to run away, so he followed her closely and kept her within his sight.

"Are you sure you want to go out to eat? What if you feel unwell or faint?" Shen Yunxi said worriedly.

"determine."

"It's just a fever, you won't faint."

"OK! Whatever you want."

After Shen Yunxi finished speaking, he turned around indifferently and left the room.

Lu Xiche looked at her back, smiled slightly, and followed her silently.

Seeing Shen Yunxi leaving the master's room, Hong Chen, who was standing not far away, hurried over to her.

He was just about to ask Shen Yunxi if he wanted to take some food to his master, but before he could open his mouth, he saw the master slowly walking out of the room.

It seems that he followed Shen Yunxi on purpose...

"Hong Chen, the food is ready, right?"

Hong Chen nodded: "Yes."

"it is good."

After saying that, Shen Yunxi turned her head and glanced at the man beside her, then suddenly turned to Hong Chen and said, "If your master wants to come out and eat by himself, I can't stop him."

After saying that, he walked straight past him towards the restaurant, leaving Hong Chen standing there with a puzzled look on his face.

what?

This……

My wife couldn't stop him, so how could he be trusted if I told him???

Hong Chen glanced at his lady, then glanced at his master who was following behind her, his eyes secretly moving back and forth between the two of them.

That weird atmosphere is still there, it seems like they haven't reconciled!

No wonder the lady is so cold to the master.

In the restaurant

Seeing that Lu Xiche only ate a little bit of the food and then stared at her intently, Shen Yunxi couldn't help but frowned slightly and asked, "Why are you staring at me like that?"

"You don't want to eat?" he suddenly asked.

Shen Yunxi said almost immediately, "I'm not hungry."

Lu Xiche didn't seem to believe her.

"Aren't you hungry or don't want to eat with me?"

Hearing this, her black eyelashes trembled slightly.

She bit her lip, "No."

Seeing that she was silent, Lu Xiche stared at her closely and said directly, "You don't have to lie to me. Do you think I didn't see your luggage? Didn't I feel the weathered air on you? You rushed over right after getting off the plane and you tell me you're not hungry?"
