Quick Wear: Cousin, Come to the Bowl Quickly

Chapter 321: The Sickly Cousin in a Female-Dominant Novel (44)

Perhaps Changsun Yan's pleading worked. Although Lin Xi was still not conscious, she finally loosened her teeth and let Changsun Yan feed her the medicine.

The sun rose and set, and it was not until the third day that Lin Xi, who had been in a coma for a long time, finally slowly opened his eyes.

It was an evening with sunset glowing all over the sky. As soon as Lin Xi opened her eyes, she saw Chang Sun Yan lying on the bed. The afterglow of the setting sun shone through the window lattice and jumped into the room, covering Chang Sun Yan who was lying on the bed, and covering him with a layer of warm yellow gauze, which made Lin Xi feel dazed.

She wasn't sure how long she had been unconscious, but judging from the occasional pain in her back, it should have been less than a few days. However, in just a few short days, Chang Sun Yan in front of her seemed to have suffered some major change and became much thinner and haggard.

He lay on his side on the bed with his eyes closed, his black hair dishevelled and half his face sunken in the quilt. His face, which had finally gained some flesh, was now thinner, his cheeks slightly sunken, and his long eyelashes could not cover the faint dark blue under his eyes.

Perhaps because he was indoors and had no mood to dress up, he only wore light-colored casual clothes. Now lying on the edge of the bed, one could faintly see his slightly raised sphenoid bones under the loose clothes. His skinny body was evident, and Lin Xi couldn't help but feel sad.

Looking at his uneasy sleeping face, Lin Xi couldn't help but want to reach out to smooth his furrowed brows, but just as she moved her fingers, she saw Changsun Yan trembled and slowly opened his eyes as if he had telepathy.

"How come Runshi has become so haggard after just a few days of not seeing him?" Lin Xi reached out and gently stroked Changsun Yan's face, which had become much thinner.

Perhaps it was because the light in the room was too warm, or perhaps it was because Lin Xi's voice was too gentle. Looking at the smiling face so close to him, Chang Sun Yan couldn't tell for a moment whether what he saw was a dream or reality.

Until Lin Xi saw him staring at her blankly for a long time without any response, she couldn't help but rub his cheek with her fingertips, then asked with a smile, "Why, are you so happy that you are stupid after seeing your future wife wake up?"

He seemed to be suddenly awakened from a dream. With a whimper, he rushed forward and hugged Lin Xi, "Lian Qing! Lian Qing! You finally woke up! Wuuuu, I thought, I thought..."

In front of outsiders, Changsun Yan always appeared cold and aloof, untainted by worldly affairs. How could he have ever been so reckless and cried like a child who had regained a lost treasure?

Feeling the warmth and wetness quickly spreading across her chest, Lin Xi couldn't help but feel both distressed and amused. She reached out and stroked the man's head that was buried in her chest. With a smile in her tone, she comforted him softly as if she was coaxing a child.

"I'm awake, I'm awake, don't worry, they say evil will last for a thousand years, I'm still a tough person, the King of Hell doesn't want to take me away yet."

Chang Sun Yan didn't say anything, but just kept holding the person and crying. Half a while later, a group of slaves who heard his earth-shaking crying came running in in a hurry and finally helped him up from Lin Xi, who was crying so hard that he was almost convulsing.

"My dear, it's a good thing that Lord Lin has woken up. Why is he crying so sadly?"

"Go and tell the master and husband quickly that Lord Lin has woken up."

"Take the sign from the mansion to the palace and ask the imperial physician to come and treat Lord Lin again."

Guan Cen and the other two saw that all the servants had gathered in the room, so they gave orders in an orderly manner and sent everyone away. Then they helped Changsun Yan to sit down, took water and a towel to help him wash up, then looked at each other, and quietly withdrew, leaving Changsun Yan and the other two to talk alone.

After all this, the atmosphere of life and death between the two of them was immediately diluted a lot, but Changsun Yan's eyes were still red as if they were dripping blood, and his eyes seemed to be grown on Lin Xi, and he was reluctant to leave even a little bit.

"What's wrong? I haven't seen you for a few days. Could it be that Runshi doesn't recognize me?" As if unable to bear such a depressing atmosphere, Lin Xi smiled and joked.

"I'm sorry." But Changsun Yan ignored her teasing, and spoke with difficulty in a hoarse voice, with tears in his eyes beginning to overflow again.

"What are you sorry for?" Seeing his self-blaming look, the smile on Lin Xi's face gradually faded, and her expression gradually became serious.

"If I hadn't been so careless, you would..." Changsun Yan closed his eyes, his face full of regret and self-blame, but he was interrupted by Lin Xi before he could finish his words.

"If it was me who was held hostage that day, would you come to save me?" Lin Xi did not say any high-sounding words of comfort, but asked back.

"I will of course save you!" Chang Sun Yan was stunned for a moment, then blurted out.

"Why?" After hearing his answer, Lin Xi's brows softened a lot and she continued to ask.

"Why..."

As if he was stumped by Lin Xi's question, Chang Sun Yan paused for a moment and did not give an answer immediately, because he himself did not know why. Was it because they were engaged? Or was it because he liked Lin Xi? It seemed that either of them could be a reason, but neither of them was a perfect answer.

Seeing that Chang Sun Yan didn't answer immediately, Lin Xi suddenly laughed, "This is my answer."

"What?" Changsun Yan didn't understand the meaning of Lin Xi's words for a moment, and looked at her with some confusion.

"The moment I heard that you were held hostage, the only thought in my mind was to save you, not why I should save you." Lin Xi looked at Changsun Yan steadily, with a firmness in her eyes that she had never seen before.

"I want to save you, whether it was then or now, no matter how many times I am given the choice, I will jump on that carriage without hesitation, instead of looking back and forth and weighing the pros and cons."

"So don't say sorry to me." Lin Xi reached out her hand, slowly and firmly grasped Chang Sun Yan's hand hanging by her side, and interlocked their fingers. "For this, I am willing and happy to do it."

"My heart is not made of stone. It cannot be turned." Lin Xi slowly tightened her fingertips and conveyed her thoughts.

The two of them had exchanged dozens of letters. Lin Xi had always been a shameless person. In the letters, she used no less than a dozen different affectionate names for him, not to mention those sweet words that would make one blush and one's heart beat like a drum at a glance.

But now, when Chang Sun Yan heard this man say "willingly and happily" in an extremely solemn manner, he suddenly felt that those love words written on paper were nothing more than that.

He seemed to be bewitched by the person in front of him with a smile in his eyes and eyebrows. He couldn't help but smile with his still red and swollen eyes, and tightly grasped the warm big hand in his palm.
