Quick Transmigration: The Charming Beauty Who Was Short-Lived and Alluring

Chu Yun didn't dare to delay. She picked up a strip of cloth and carefully wrapped it around Gu Huaizhi's wound, finally tying a bow at the end.

Gu Huaizhi was in so much pain that he was about to faint when suddenly something touched his lips, followed by Chu Yun's voice, "Open your mouth."

Before his mind could even process it, Gu Huaizhi did as he was told, and a round, soft object rolled into his mouth, bringing a sweet taste.

Gu Huaizhi couldn't help but look at Chu Yun, his eyes slightly open, and a rare look of confusion appeared on his face due to shock.

Chu Yun chuckled. "Don't worry, it's candy. Aren't you in pain? Eating a piece of candy should make you feel better."

Her eyes were smiling, a rare gentleness in them. Her warm gaze almost burned Gu Huaizhi's eyes, causing him to lower his gaze. When he saw the red bow, the corners of his mouth unconsciously curled up.

For the first time, Gu Huaizhi realized that girls were indeed very thoughtful, and that those fancy things he used to look down on were not entirely useless.

With a weak expression, he whispered his thanks, "Thank you, Miss Wen."

His words came out haltingly, and his labored breathing betrayed his weakness. Chu Yun waved her hand dismissively and said, "It's nothing."

"Miss Wen, your injury..."

Before Gu Huaizhi could finish speaking, Chu Yun said, "I already told you, I'm not seriously injured, I just bled a lot, but I can handle it myself, I don't need your help."

Hearing her say that, Gu Huaizhi didn't want to force her, so he slowly closed his eyes and said, "Please treat your wounds, Miss. I will not peek."

He didn't hear Chu Yun's voice, but Gu Huaizhi clearly heard the woman's short laughter. His heart softened uncontrollably, and he felt the sweetness filling his mouth, making his smile even deeper.

He closed his eyes, his vision was completely dark, but his hearing was amplified. He heard the sound of cloth tearing, and guessed that Chu Yun had torn a few more pieces of cloth.

He soon heard a woman's soft moan of pain, and Gu Huaizhi's heart tightened. He asked, "Miss Wen, are you alright?"

"I'm fine." Chu Yun's breathing was unsteady and her voice trembled.

Gu Huaizhi's lips tightened, and he pursed them, no longer asking questions, so as not to make Chu Yun, who was already in pain, feel even worse by having to answer him.

The cries of pain continued to come intermittently, and Gu Huaizhi seemed to feel it as well. His heart was tormented, and he couldn't explain why, but he just felt terrible.

But at a certain moment, the low gasping sounds suddenly disappeared.

Gu Huaizhi thought Chu Yun had overcome the pain and breathed a sigh of relief. "The medicine powder was carefully prepared by me. It will hurt a little at first, but you'll get through it."

A gust of wind brushed past her ear, but it didn't bring Chu Yun's voice.

Gu Huaizhi waited a while, then couldn't help but ask, "Miss Wen, how are you?"

Waiting for Chu Yun's reply, Gu Huaizhi's heart tightened even more. He pressed on, "Miss Wen, why aren't you saying anything? Are you still in pain?"

Still, no one answered.

Even if Chu Yun was in pain, he had asked so many questions; she wouldn't remain silent. Gu Huaizhi became increasingly flustered.

He raised his voice, almost shouting, "Miss Wen, if you don't speak, I'll open my eyes!"

It was eerily quiet.

Gu Huaizhi suddenly opened his eyes, and the first thing he saw was Chu Yun lying on the ground. From his angle, he couldn't see Chu Yun's face clearly, but he could see her curled up on the ground, a small ball that made his heart ache for no reason.

"Miss Wen!" Gu Huaizhi called out as he moved towards Chu Yun with all his might. His left hand was injured and he couldn't move it, so he could only clumsily use his right hand to support Chu Yun and let her lean against him.

"Miss Wen, wake up! What's wrong with you?" No matter how Gu Huaizhi called out, Chu Yun did not respond, her eyes tightly closed.

Once he calmed down, he finally felt Chu Yun's pulse.

The more Gu Huaizhi examined Chu Yun's pulse, the more his brows furrowed. Chu Yun's pulse was too strange; sometimes it was so weak that it was almost undetectable, and sometimes it was as normal as a healthy person's. It was so unpredictable and difficult to pinpoint the exact nature of her pulse.

Then, something even stranger happened—Gu Huaizhi watched as dark red lines appeared on Chu Yun's arm, extending from inside her clothes and spreading all the way to her palm and fingers.

His heart skipped a beat, and he quickly rolled up Chu Yun's sleeves. Dense, dark patterns covered her entire arm, a frightening red.

Gu Huaizhi immediately checked his other arm and found the same thing.

Undeterred, he looked at Chu Yun's neck again. Dark lines had appeared on her already blood-stained neck. As he got closer, the strong smell of blood filled his nostrils, making him feel nauseous.

The dark lines appeared very quickly, spreading across Chu Yun's face in the blink of an eye.

Gu Huaizhi was completely clueless about Chu Yun's situation and was at a loss for what to do until Chu Yun let out a weak cry of pain, which brought him back to his senses.

"pain--"

The unconscious groans of pain felt like knives, stabbing Gu Huaizhi's heart until it bled. He tenderly stroked Chu Yun's face and whispered, "Wen Chu Yun, what's wrong?"

His response was Chu Yun's cries of pain. She was like a small animal, curled up in Gu Huaizhi's arms, sobbing in distress. She was also like a glass doll, so delicate that she would shatter at the slightest touch. Gu Huaizhi subconsciously withdrew his hand, not daring to touch her at all.

He didn't know how much pain Chu Yun was in, but his heart tightened along with her pain, feeling as if he were suffocating.

Never before had he felt so useless, having the empty title of a divine physician yet unable to save Chu Yun, only able to watch her suffer.

"Chu Yun, how can I help you..." he murmured to himself, his voice filled with fear.

At this moment, Gu Huaizhi finally realized that he felt differently about Chu Yun, and his mind kept replaying the things that had happened between him and Chu Yun.

She saved him in the snow. Because of those unbearable past events, he deliberately distanced himself from her, but he couldn't help but pay more attention to her. He then discovered that although she appeared cold, her heart was not.

She went to great lengths for Xiao Qi'an, which made him uncomfortable, but he couldn't stop her and could only suffer in silence.

She was injured and unconscious. He saw this and, enraged, forgot his usual leniency and severely punished his subordinates.

She rushed to his rescue despite her injuries and treated his wounds; he was both grateful and heartbroken.

Her cold words, her smile, her inquiry, and her selfless protection have long been etched into his memory and deeply ingrained in his heart.

His feelings for her were different; perhaps he had... fallen in love with her.

Thinking about this made my heart ache even more.

It was precisely at this moment that he realized his true feelings.

"Wen Chuyun, what am I supposed to do with you?"

How can I save you?

If you wake up, how should I face you?

What should I do if you don't wake up?

Gu Huaizhi reached out his right hand and hugged Chu Yun tightly, pleading, "Please don't die, please."

He held Chu Yun in his arms, motionless, as if he wanted to sit there forever, repeatedly saying, "Don't die."
