Su Yun slept so soundly that she didn't wake up until the afternoon. The sunlight had moved from the east to the west of the house.

When she woke up, she felt her stomach was empty, as if there was a small drum beating in her stomach, reminding her that it was time to eat.

She slowly opened her eyes, and as soon as she opened them, she saw Fu Yichen lying quietly beside her on the bed.

Su Yun's heart skipped a beat, and he was startled. He subconsciously called out, "Yichen."

There was a hint of laziness from just waking up and a hint of barely perceptible panic in the voice.

When Fu Yichen heard her call, he looked at her with burning eyes, which seemed to contain thousands of words and seemed to be exploring something. After a moment, he softly responded: "Yeah."

Su Yun felt a little guilty and didn't dare to meet his fiery gaze for too long. She quickly changed the subject, holding her stomach and said with a bit of a pout, "Oh, I've slept for too long. My stomach is protesting. I'm so hungry."

Fu Yichen looked at her like this, the inquiry in his eyes faded a little, and he said in a gentle tone: "I'll ask someone to make food right away, you can lie down for a while."

After saying that, Fu Yichen stood up easily, first tidied up his wrinkled clothes, then walked to Su Yun, picked up the clothes beside him, and said softly: "Come, I will help you get dressed. You just woke up, I'm afraid you don't have much strength."

As he spoke, he carefully helped Su Yun put on his clothes one by one. After he was dressed, he called for a servant to bring in water so that Su Yun could wash up.

Su Yun sat in the bathtub, the warm water wrapped around her body, relaxing her nerves that were a little tense due to tension.

Fu Yichen stood beside the bathtub, holding a towel in his hand, gently helping her wash her body. His movements were gentle and delicate, as if he was treating a rare treasure.

Suddenly, Fu Yichen's gaze fell on the faint marks on Su Yun's body. His eyes suddenly darkened and became turbulent. There seemed to be anger burning in his eyes, and there seemed to be a hint of pain.

Su Yun noticed his strangeness and her heart was beating fast. Looking at Fu Yichen's serious and obviously unhappy expression, she dared not resist at all. She couldn't help but secretly blame Lu Yuankai in her heart. How could he be so careless and leave these marks on her body? What should she do?

Fortunately, Fu Yichen did not ask how these new marks came about. He just continued his actions in silence, but the atmosphere became more and more depressing.

Seeing this, Su Yun secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't dare to say anything more and soaked quietly in the bathtub. He wanted to reduce his presence to the minimum, and just hoped that this embarrassing and tense moment would pass quickly.

After a long while, Fu Yichen slowly opened his mouth and called out, "Xiao Yun."

Su Yun quickly responded: "Hmm?"

There was a hint of caution in her voice, and she looked up at Fu Yichen with a look of uneasiness in her eyes.

Fu Yichen looked at her nervous expression, sighed slightly, and said softly: "Nothing, just calling you."

After saying that, he continued with his hand movements, but the movements seemed a little more mechanical than before.

In this way, they washed for half an hour before Fu Yichen let Su Yun get up and put on his clothes.

After Su Yun was dressed, he walked to the dining table.

Fu Yichen brought a bowl of steaming lean meat porridge, sat next to Su Yun, scooped up a spoonful of porridge, blew it gently, handed it to Su Yun's mouth, and said, "Xiao Yun, drink some porridge to fill your stomach first."

Su Yun felt a little guilty watching him act like this, and quickly said, "Yichen, I can do it myself. I have enough strength now."

After hearing this, Fu Yichen didn't insist anymore and handed the bowl to Su Yun. Then he sat aside and watched Su Yun eat quietly.

Su Yun took the bowl and ate the porridge spoonful by spoonful. The warm porridge slid down her throat into her stomach, making her feel like she was slowly coming back to life, and her originally empty stomach gradually felt full.

After eating a bowl of lean meat porridge, Su Yun breathed a sigh of satisfaction.

Seeing this, Fu Yichen brought out some bird's nest and some exquisite snacks, and said, "Eat more. You've slept for so long, you need to replenish your energy."

Su Yun smiled and nodded, then drank some bird's nest and ate a few snacks. Only then did he feel his stomach was completely full and he felt much more energetic.

After Su Yun finished eating, Fu Yichen stood up, walked to Su Yun, stretched out his hand to hold her, and said gently: "Xiao Yun, you have eaten too much, walk around to help digest it. I will take you for a walk in the yard."

Su Yun responded and stood up with Fu Yichen. Hand in hand, they slowly walked out of the room and into the yard. The afternoon sun shone in the yard, making them feel warm. The flowers and plants in the yard swayed gently in the breeze, as if they were also enjoying this pleasant time.

Fu Yichen and Su Yun walked slowly like this, neither of them spoke first, just quietly enjoying this moment of tranquility and companionship. However, under the seemingly calm appearance, it seemed that each of them had some unspeakable thoughts hidden in their hearts.
