Su Li helped the man lie down on the bed.

In just a short while, Bai Yucheng's temperature rose again.

Su Li was in a complicated mood, but her actions showed her concern for him.

This is Su Li's inner struggle.

It has nothing to do with Bai Yucheng.

When she was about to go downstairs to get a glass of water, Bai Yucheng opened his eyes dazedly and grabbed her wrist, preventing her from leaving.

Su Li looked at the big palm on her wrist, and felt a dull pain deep in her heart.

"I'll get you a glass of water and some medicine to reduce your fever."

Bai Yucheng let go of her hand only after hearing that Su Li was not leaving.

I walked slowly downstairs and watched the sky outside gradually brighten.

Su Li stayed at the stairs and thought for a long time.

Only when the sun slowly rose did Su Li take action.

After boiling a pot of water in the kitchen, Su Li carried the hot water upstairs.

As soon as she pushed the door open, she saw Bai Yucheng getting up and preparing to get out of bed. His anxious look made Su Li's heart ache again and again.

Su Li quickened her pace and walked to Bai Yucheng's side. After putting the water on the table, she let him go back to bed.

The temperature changes from hot to cold.

How can the fever be cured?

Su Li was angry and anxious.

"I told you to stay, why are you getting up again?"

"You didn't come for a while, I thought you left."

Su Li was silent for a moment, then looked up at Bai Yucheng's face and asked, "Are you so afraid that I'll leave?"

Bai Yucheng nodded.

Su Li looked at the other person's pale face, turned her head away, and said in a depressed tone, "Weren't you eager for me to leave before? Baicheng is such a dangerous place, and you dare to guarantee that you can protect me here? The Pei family dares to use me as a threat to force you to return to Baicheng. Aren't you afraid that they will use my position in your heart to make you hand over Yu Xing obediently?"

Bai Yucheng was slightly surprised.

"Luo Ze told you?"

Hearing the other party's serious tone, Su Li felt a little guilty.

This is not what Luo Ze told her.

It was just information that I accidentally discovered while talking with Luo Ze.

"No." Su Li hurriedly changed the subject: "In short, I will definitely get to the bottom of what you've deliberately concealed from me. Moreover, if I hadn't chosen to come to Baicheng to find you, would you really get engaged to Pei Yan and disappear from my world forever?"

Bai Yucheng didn't say anything.

For Su Li's safety.

He had this plan.

"See, your expression means you agree." Su Li felt even more depressed: "So, my position in your heart is just insignificant, right?"

"No."

Bai Yucheng rejected Su Li's idea without hesitation: "I don't want them to hurt you."

"But have you ever considered that I'm not afraid at all?" Su Li smiled bitterly. "I've seen a lot of ups and downs. In this chaotic entertainment industry, there are so many investors who want to kill me. When have I ever been afraid? Besides, your sacrifice hasn't made my situation any better. Pei Yan will eventually attack me for her own purposes. It's just a matter of time. What identity will you use to protect me then?"

"I didn't think well enough."

"It's not a question of whether you're thoughtful or not. The problem is that you're simply not prepared to face risks with me. You want to protect me, but you can only do so temporarily, not for a lifetime? Aren't you tired of protecting me for a lifetime?" Su Li's voice trembled as she turned her head away. "I don't like it when your promises suddenly become empty."

He made promises again and again, only to be disappointed again and again.

Bai Yucheng pursed his lips, reached out and took Su Li's trembling fingertips and squeezed them.

"No." Bai Yucheng played with the other person's fingers and said, "This kind of thing won't happen again."

Bai Yucheng recalled what Su Li had said to him before.

I didn't take it to heart at the time, but now I think this might be the reason why Su Li has been depressed from then until now.

He understood that Su Li was very strong.

If she hadn't been strong, with her background, it would have been difficult for her to reach her current position in this mixed circle.

"I need to think carefully about whether I should forgive you." Su Li withdrew her fingers and didn't look at Bai Yucheng: "Drink the medicine yourself. I'll go downstairs to make some porridge and bring it up to you later."

"it is good."

Two days later,

Bai Yucheng's condition has basically improved.

The stiff relationship between the two gradually eased with the transition day by day.

When Luo Ze came to Mu Garden again, he saw Bai Yucheng sitting on the sofa reading a newspaper in a good mood.

Luo Ze came over with a raised eyebrow: "Hey, are you done?"

"Ah."

Luo Ze looked up and glanced around, but didn't notice Su Li. He jokingly said, "As expected of Su Li's personal care, haha. The good thing is that it's much faster than before."

Luo Ze didn't notice and Bai Yucheng's leg hit his calf.

Luo Ze fell down on the sofa in pain and said angrily: "Oh my god! You are trying to murder me!"

Bai Yucheng ignored him and turned around to take out his tablet and look at it.

But the uncontrollable smile on his face completely betrayed him.

Luo Ze clicked his tongue in disdain: "Where's Su Li?"

"out."

"You won't follow me? Aren't you afraid that you won't come back?" Luo Ze was in a bad mood and couldn't help but start teasing this man who was pretending to be dead.

Bai Yucheng glanced over with a sharp look.

Sure enough, it is still a forbidden topic.

"No, I told you to seize this opportunity, but you didn't listen to me!" Luo Ze frowned, "Or did you lie to me?"

Bai Yucheng lost his patience and turned around with the tablet to start processing documents.

Seeing that he got no response, Luo Ze simply gave up.

Luo Ze walked over to the sofa opposite Bai Yucheng and sat down: "I came to see you today because of something."

Bai Yucheng stared at Luo Ze for a few seconds, then closed the tablet with a look of disbelief: "Speak."

Luo Ze cursed the other party for being a hypocrite, but he didn't believe it and said something else: "Old Bai, after you answer honestly, from the moment Su Li came to Baicheng, did you never think of letting her leave?"

Bai Yucheng simply stood up and left with his tablet.

Luo Ze was now obedient. He immediately stood up, grabbed the other person's sleeve, and said, "No, no, no, I won't say anything."

"I'm getting some clues about the matter you asked me to investigate."

Bai Yucheng sat back on the sofa: "What do you mean?"

"At the engagement party, you asked me to seal off the entire venue. However, the result was not ideal. The person who shot you still escaped." Luo Ze frowned and analyzed: "However, he dropped the gun at the venue. I thought sending it for examination would more or less give some clues, but there were no fingerprints on the gun."

Bai Yucheng was silent for a moment, then spoke calmly, "They came prepared. This was a planned action."

Luo Ze was instantly shocked: "You mean, the other party planned to kill you?"

Bai Yucheng looked at Luo Ze and shook his head: "Rather than saying he wants to kill me, it's better to say he wants to give me a signal."

"Signal?"
