Tomb Robber: Oops, I think I met a tomb robber.

As soon as the people outside saw Qiuyue coming out, someone came over to take her to find the Fourth Master. Qiuyue walked into the house holding the puppy, and saw Chenpi wiping his claws with an expressionless face and his eyes slightly drooping. It was unknown what he was thinking.

The subordinate who brought Qiuyue in bowed to Chenpi and left, leaving space for the two to get along.

"Fourth Master, when will you come back? And this little puppy, where did you get it from? It's so cute."

Qiuyue touched the little guy in her arms, her tone full of smiles, which showed how much she loved this little cub.

The Fourth Master paused, then finally raised his eyes, his gaze grave, and said slowly, "I just came back not long ago."

He didn't go back to ask where the puppy came from, but Qiuyue didn't care. The little guy had already been given to her anyway. She sat on her usual chair with great familiarity. The pastries on the table had been replaced and the storybooks had been arranged. However, she didn't want to read them today. Instead, she was very curious about the Fourth Master's trip out.

"Fourth Master, how was it today after we went out? Did we get into any fights?"

Chenpi threw the hook onto the table and casually dropped the blood-stained handkerchief onto the ground where Qiuyue couldn't see it. He then pulled up his sleeve to cover his wrist, which had lost its red spot, and said, "There was no fight. I just went over there and came back."

Qiuyue nodded: "That's fine, as long as there's no fighting."

"That Chenpi likes you, why doesn't he marry you?"

The Fourth Master asked suddenly. Qiuyue was stunned for a moment, thinking that she might have heard it wrong. Seeing her puzzled expression, the Fourth Master repeated what he had just said.

Qiuyue blinked and said awkwardly, "Well, how should I put it? There are actually some things going on between him and me, so..."

"So you just follow him without any status?"

The Fourth Master's voice seemed to contain ice as he asked her coldly. Qiuyue was a little startled by his inexplicable question and quickly waved her hands: "Oh, no, it's not what you think. This matter is difficult to explain clearly, hahaha..."

Hearing Qiuyue's awkward laughter, the Fourth Master's eyes became even deeper.

If Chen Pi were here at this moment, he would probably tell the Fourth Master directly that it was he, not Qiu Yue, who had no name or status.

Before the Fourth Master could say anything, his subordinates came in. Qiuyue immediately shut up and pretended to be invisible, lowering her head and stroking the puppy. The Fourth Master also withdrew his gaze from her and began to deal with the matter.

The conversation was interrupted. When it was time for dinner, Qiuyue took the puppy back to eat. The Fourth Master did not say another word and calmly ordered his subordinates to do their work.

The Fourth Master didn't come when Qiuyue and Chenpi were having dinner, but Qiuyue didn't care. After dinner, she watched the puppy licking the milk. Suddenly, she thought of something, and her face turned red. She glanced at Chenpi and then at the puppy.

Chen Pi saw Qiu Yue blushing and knew what she was thinking. With a smile on his face, he asked, "Sister, what's the name of this puppy?"

Qiuyue watched it grunt as it produced milk, and suddenly thought of something, blurting out, "Call it Little Orange Peel."

Chenpi smiled even more happily.

"Okay, okay, Little Orange Peel is good, Little Orange Peel is good, the name sounds nice."

The mute servant couldn't understand why Chenpi was laughing so happily, but he didn't care and just cleared the table.

The Fourth Master stood outside the house, listening quietly to the noise inside. He stood there for a long time before turning around and leaving.

The next morning, Qiuyue wanted to go find the Fourth Master as usual, but when her subordinates saw her, they said that the Fourth Master was out and it was uncertain when he would be back.

Qiuyue thought it would only be this one day, but unexpectedly she hadn't seen him for more than half a month. Her subordinates' response to her every day was either that the Fourth Master was busy or that the Fourth Master was out. Qiuyue hadn't seen him for more than half a month.

Chenpi, who knew something, was very happy. He could be with Qiuyue every day. He was so happy that even the little orange peel looked very cute to him.

The days passed like this, and little Orange Peel grew a little bigger. He looked like a little black bear that could steal the cassock. He was round and fluffy, and looked particularly cute. When Qiuyue thought that she would not see the Fourth Master for a long time and was planning to go out for a walk by herself, an accident happened.

It was a rainy afternoon. After waking up, Qiuyue wanted to cook something, so she went to the kitchen and made a pot of lotus root and pork ribs soup. When the rain stopped, she took the lunch box and went back to let Chenpi taste it. As a result, not long after she left, she bumped into the Fourth Master, whom she hadn't seen for more than half a month. Qiuyue was very surprised.

I saw the Fourth Master standing in a yard, his whole body was wet, his clothes were torn and full of holes, and blood had soaked the small area under his feet. It seemed that he had been standing there for a while. He lowered his head and did not see Qiuyue. It seemed that I didn't know what he was thinking.

"Fourth Master?"

Qiuyue called out to him, but the Fourth Master didn't respond. Qiuyue walked over with her lunch box in hand, her voice slightly raised: "Fourth Master, you're injured, why don't you go get a bandage? Did you use up the amulet I gave you? Why don't you come back to me to get it fixed for you?"

When Qiuyue walked up to him, the Fourth Master raised his eyes and looked at her, but did not respond. Instead, he turned and started to leave. Qiuyue was extremely confused and reached out to grab his arm: "Fourth Master? Where are you going? Are you going to find a doctor? Or why don't you go back to the room and I'll find a doctor for you, or I'll call your subordinates?"

The Fourth Master paused, then lowered his eyes to glance at Qiuyue's delicate fingers gripping his arm. He shook her hand off and walked away without looking back. Qiuyue was suddenly thrown away, and her face immediately showed confusion and a little bit of helplessness. She lowered her voice and asked tentatively, "Fourth Master, did I make you angry in some way?"

The Fourth Master didn't respond at all. Qiuyue watched him walk out the door, with no intention of going back into the house to bandage him. Then she looked down at the blood that had flowed out of him. In the end, she couldn't bear it anymore. She walked over and grabbed his arm again, pulling him towards the house: "I don't know when I made you angry, but you are injured now, and you are caught in the rain. Are you trying to kill yourself? Look at you, walking out a bloody path, who are you trying to scare to death? Be obedient, come with me into the house, and take care of your injuries first."

This time, the Fourth Master finally stopped and obediently let her pull him into the house. His eyes were dark and no emotion could be seen.

Qiuyue took him to sit down, then put the lunch box in her hand on the table, and then turned around to close the door.

When he heard the door closing, the Fourth Master finally reacted and turned to look at her.

Qiuyue walked over and looked at him. He was covered in all kinds of wounds from head to toe. She really didn't know how he had managed to hold on for so long without falling, and he had even been caught in the rain.

Qiuyue walked up to him and grabbed his arm directly. When her beautiful eyes turned into golden pupils, the Fourth Master looked at her in a daze, feeling all the pain in his body gradually disappearing. When Qiuyue let go of her hand, he had not yet reacted.

Qiuyue loosened her grip after she felt his injuries had healed. She then opened the lunch box on the table and pushed the steaming hot soup in front of him, saying, "Drink this. After you finish, go change your clothes. Wearing wet clothes for too long will make you catch a cold. It will be very painful for you."

The Fourth Master lowered his eyes and looked at the bowl of soup without moving.

Seeing that he didn't want to eat, Qiuyue didn't care. His wounds had healed, so he should be fine. If he didn't want to eat, then he didn't have to. Thinking of this, she got up and left, preparing to go back to the kitchen to scoop a new bowl. She had just taken two steps when she heard the Fourth Master's voice behind her, which was terribly hoarse.

"Today is my grandmother's memorial day."

Qiuyue paused, looked back at him in surprise, and subconsciously said, "Then why don't you go back and pay your respects?"

As soon as Qiuyue finished speaking, she couldn't help but hold her forehead. What a bad mouth she had...

The Fourth Master slowly raised his eyes and looked at her.

It was a rainy day, and it was pitch black outside. It was even darker inside the house. He was sitting in the house, and it was difficult to see his face clearly.

Qiuyue laughed awkwardly and changed the subject awkwardly, saying, "Ha, haha, I'll go to the kitchen and make you another bowl. I just made it for you. Drink it. Chenpi hasn't had any yet. This is something I made myself. Finish it quickly and change your clothes. It won't be good if you get a fever."

After saying that, Qiuyue left in a hurry, not daring to stay here at all, for fear of being called by him.

After Qiuyue left, the Fourth Master looked at the bowl of lotus root and pork ribs soup quietly. After a while, he raised his hand, picked up the spoon, scooped a spoonful, lowered his head and took a sip.

The Fourth Master maintained his drinking posture for quite a while, then suddenly picked up the bowl and started eating in big mouthfuls, finishing the entire bowl of slightly hot soup and lotus root and pork ribs. After finishing, he put down the bowl, raised his hands to cover his face, and his whole body was trembling slightly.

In the dim room, there was a faint sound of suppressed sobbing, like laughing but not laughing, like crying but not crying, mixed with a hysterical muttering.

"Hahaha……"

"It's you, it's you, hahaha..."

"Got you."

"Found it, found you."

Qiuyue went back to the kitchen and packed a new lunch box. She quickly returned to Chenpi and served him the still steaming hot soup.

Oh, yes, after almost a month, Chenpi has gradually recovered some strength and can get up and eat by himself (abridged). It is really a cause for celebration.

"Sister, the soup you made is delicious. I want to drink it again in the future."

After Chenpi finished drinking the soup, he hugged Qiuyue and acted coquettishly. Qiuyue rubbed his head and said, "My cooking skills are average, not as good as you say. But if you want to drink it, I will make you something else next time, be good."

Chen Pi was satisfied with the response he wanted. Just when he was about to move closer to Qiu Yue for a kiss, Qiu Yue pushed him away: "Wipe the oil off your mouth."

Chenpi smiled and wiped his mouth obediently, then hugged Qiuyue again and bit her little ear, looking as if he was blinded by lust, with eyes only for the person in front of him.

The mute servant sat outside the house holding the same bowl of soup. While drinking the soup, he happily watched the little orange peel shaking its head and gnawing on a bone that was bigger than itself. It was a rare peaceful time.

On this day, Qiuyue hadn't seen the Fourth Master for another day since she met him that time. She thought she would not see him for a while. On the third day, when Qiuyue was about to go out to take a look outside, someone came to invite her.

"What did you say?"

Qiuyue looked at the Fourth Master's subordinates in surprise through the black curtain of their hats, thinking she had misheard.

The subordinate bowed respectfully and said, "Miss Yang, the Fourth Master has a fever. He refuses to take medicine and says you are not allowed to come. He has been feverish for a whole day and is talking nonsense. We really have no choice but to disobey orders and come to invite you."

Qiuyue was overwhelmed after hearing this and quickly asked him to lead the way.

What the hell? Why does he have a fever? Didn’t he listen to change his wet clothes that day?

Following the subordinates to the room where the Fourth Master lived, Qiuyue heard his low mumbling voice as soon as she entered.

"no……"

"Don't...leave..."

After seeing Qiuyue go in, the subordinate wiped the sweat off his face and did not go in. Instead, he reached out to close the door and stood guard outside.

Qiuyue heard the sound of a door closing, and thought that the subordinate was afraid that the wind would blow into the room and aggravate the Fourth Master's condition, so she ignored it.

There was only the Fourth Master lying on the bed in the room. There was no one else. Qiuyue took off her hat and walked to his bed to take a look. Wow, his face was red from the fever.
