Quick Transmigration: Forbidden to Covet Beautiful NPCs
Chapter 249 A Stunning "Widow" from a Historical Fiction (39)
That night, Huo Tongzhou didn't sleep, and neither did Yan Liang.
Wu Tongxue was in poor health, and with no one to disturb his sleep, he slept soundly.
Huo Tongzhou carefully picked the person up and placed them on the bed, then gently covered them with a blanket. He was about to leave when a slight noise from behind made him turn around.
He stopped in his tracks, a cold glint in his eyes.
Yan Liang stood in front of the bed, his shadow cast in the direction of the bed, a long, dark image that resembled chains of confinement.
This was the first time the two of them had truly faced each other directly.
They all secretly wondered why, why they received such special favor.
The two men were about the same height; Yan Liang was handsome and gentle, while Huo Tongzhou was cold and fierce. They faced off in the confined space.
He glanced down at the sleeping person, then looked up again, the warmth gone, and Yan Liang's tone was utterly indifferent: "Let's go outside and talk."
Huo Tongzhou turned and walked out without a word, unhurriedly. He paused by the table, bent down, and blew out the candle.
The shadows on the ground dimmed, appearing menacing in the deeper darkness of the night.
The only candle went out, and the chirping of insects outside the window was the best lullaby.
The medicine that Bai Jingfan brought was quite effective. Wu Tongxue felt good after drinking it, but she always felt sleepy. After sleeping, she felt refreshed.
Under the influence of the drug, his body's self-repair mechanism forced him into a deep sleep, his breathing shallow, and he naturally paid no attention to the confrontation between the men.
They probably still know their limits.
The next morning, when Wu Tongxue woke up, she saw the bruises on Yan's face and a small patch of dark blue on his forehead. It wasn't big, but it looked quite frightening.
He immediately went over to check on you, frowning with concern as he asked, "What happened to your injury?"
"Has the medicine not been applied yet?"
This doesn't look like a fall. Suddenly recalling what happened before she fell asleep last night, she opened her mouth and said, "This is..."
Yan Liang stood with his head down under the eaves, looking rather pitiful. "I was beaten by someone else."
After hesitating for two seconds, Wu Tongxue asked, "Is it... Huo Tongzhou...?"
Yan Liang gave a low "hmm," the wound so close to his eyes that it made him involuntarily frown.
The wound was not only bruised, but also broken open, with streaks of blood oozing out.
Wu Tongxue couldn't help but press, "Did he notice you weren't asleep?"
Yan Liang nodded.
To be honest, Huo Tongzhou is no match for Yan Liang now, and this result proves that he wasn't wrong; Yan Liang still knows his limits.
"What about him? Was he injured too?"
Yan Liang nodded again, then added, "Minor injury."
Wu Tongxue breathed a sigh of relief; thank goodness.
"Sit down, your wound hasn't been treated yet, let me treat it for you." After saying that, he went to find the medicine.
The dark blue tiles overhead blocked half the sunlight, and Yan Liang raised the corners of his lips, his gloomy mood dissipating considerably.
Who knows how to behave?
Yan Liang sneered silently; the other party was also going to kill him.
However, Huo Tongzhou couldn't do anything to him, and he was also unable to do anything to Huo Tongzhou because he was wary of the unknown thing Huo Tongzhou was wearing.
After a fight, both men were injured and left the scene.
Given the chance, he believed the other party would not hesitate to kick him while he was down and take the opportunity to kill him.
Of course, so was he.
They are the same kind of people at heart, how could they not know what the other is thinking?
When Wu Tongxue returned with the small medicine box, she saw Yan Liang sitting obediently under the eaves on a chair without moving.
"Does it hurt like this?" Wu Tongxue disinfected the wound with a cotton ball, paying attention to his expression.
Yan Liang tilted his head, and the cotton ball accidentally brushed against the wound. He frowned at the right moment, "It doesn't hurt."
A hand pressed on his shoulder, a little annoyed, "Don't move, it hurts."
Her soft complaints were tinged with deep concern, and her furrowed brow never relaxed as she treated the wound.
Yan Liang's fingers curled on his knees as he greedily enjoyed his care, his whole body filled with joy and lightness.
His ambition was even greater; he wanted to possess this affection exclusively.
The thick, surging darkness was deeply hidden in his eyes, unseen by others.
Wu Tongxue looked down at him, met his gaze, and earnestly instructed, "Treat your injuries promptly, don't take them lightly."
The injury I sustained last night has been left untreated; I don't know who's suffering the most.
"it is good."
Even while injured, Wu Tongxue still made sure to prepare breakfast, making her feel like she was exploiting the injured patient.
Yan Liang seemed to enjoy doing all this.
……
Returning home in the dark, Huo Tongzhou gritted his teeth and applied the medicine himself, his whole body radiating a strong killing intent.
That damned Yan Liang, we'd better not let him find an opportunity.
A small pebble landed in the yard with a "click," and then a furtive figure climbed over the wall and entered.
Huo Tongzhou casually adjusted his shirt to cover his abdominal muscles, then stood up to open the door.
Li Lin jumped down from the wall, his eyes lighting up. "Brother Huo, it's great that you're here. I just came by and you weren't here."
Huo Tongzhou's brows furrowed, his mood worse than usual. "What is it?"
"Another group of people recently arrived. I asked Xiaohu to keep an eye on them. I'm just reporting back to you."
Huo Tongzhou's expression remained unchanged. Li Lin rubbed his hands together and continued, "And then there's..."
"You asked me to keep an eye on Bai Zhiqing's side, but so far there haven't been any significant discoveries."
Li Lin only observed some of the love, hate, and grudges, and he wouldn't tell Brother Huo, who was in a bad mood right now, about those.
Huo Tongzhou nodded to indicate that he understood, "You can go back now."
Li Lin could smell the medicine from afar and couldn't help but ask, "Brother Huo, how did you get hurt?"
When the topic was brought up again, Huo Tongzhou was in a very bad mood. "It's nothing."
Li Lin didn't dare ask any more questions and quickly climbed over the wall to leave.
Huo Tongzhou returned to his room and closed the door again, unable to fall asleep.
I threw the dirty clothes into the water to soak, picked up a hoe and went to work in the vegetable garden in the backyard, planning to replant some things.
I didn't leave until dawn, after taking a shower, changing clothes, and applying medicine in one go.
On her way to the health center via a side path, Wu Tongxue saw someone waiting by the roadside in the distance.
He recognized Huo Tongzhou at a glance and paused before speeding up.
Upon closer inspection, she exclaimed in surprise, "Your face..."
His left eye was bruised, his jaw was scraped, and he smelled of medicated oil. I don't know where else he was injured.
Huo Tongzhou's eyebrows twitched, and he slowly turned around, his previously turned-to-the-side face now fully exposed to the sunlight.
...Is this what Yan Liang meant by minor injury?
Huo Tongzhou's expression was cold, his eyebrows furrowed, and he turned his head away to avoid Wu Tongxue's blatant scrutiny.
He hesitated for a moment before speaking, composing himself before saying, "It's nothing."
"It was just a normal friendly sparring session."
His low voice held a hint of restraint as he said, "Although he hit a little too hard, this injury will heal quickly."
He only regretted not killing Yan Liang on the spot.
They always aim for the face when they hit someone.
Although he found an opportunity to return the favor, he was still very unhappy.
"Why did he hit so hard?" Upon comparison, Huo Tongzhou's injuries were more severe.
Fortunately, he knew how to apply the medicine, which put his mind at ease.
"Here, take this." Huo Tongzhou handed over something.
