Chapter 137 - Let’s Pick a Horse

It looked like only Luo Qianqian’s blood would help Murong Yun, even Lin Zimo didn’t understand why.

Luo Qianqian recalled every full moon night with Murong Yun in the past, she believed what Lin Zimo said was the case. The first time when she met Murong Yun, she stumbled and fell on Murong Yun, they had a kiss and Murong Yun accidentally bit her lips, and Murong Yun felt better just like that.

The second time when Luo Qianqian was around, she thought her kiss was the cure so she closed her eyes and kissed Murong Yun, but Murong Yun accidentally bit her lips again and drank a mouthful of her blood, along with Lin Zimo’s pills, Murong Yun felt better.

And this time, Luo Qianqian cut her wrist and fed Murong Yun about half a bowl of blood, Luo Qianqian thought that was at least 50 ml of blood that she had fed Murong Yun. ‘Lin Zimo is right, Murong Yun needs more blood every time he suffers a Frigid Poison attack.’

‘How much does he need next time?’ thought Luo Qianqian.

Luo Qianqian straightened her sleeve to cover the wound on her wrist, “I’m sorry, that was very reckless of me.”

Xiao Bai felt bad too, but Luo Qianqian didn’t blame Xiao Bai, Xiao Bai wasn’t a doctor, it was just trying to help her to make the best decision at that moment.

Lin Zimo averted his gaze, “It’s not too late now, let’s figure out something else before Brother Eighth finds out, I’m sure he would refuse it if he knows what you have been doing.”

Silence.

“Fourth Lady, do you want to lose your life to save Brother Eighth’s?”

Luo Qianqian cleared her throat lightly, “You are right, Doctor Lin, can you help me to cover my wound before Murong Yun wakes up? I didn’t cut too deep, please help me.”

It wasn’t until now did Luo Qianqian start to have second thought about what she had done, Murong Yun would rather die if he knew his only cure was to hurt Luo Qianqian. But Luo Qianqian was also sure that she was willing to feed Murong Yun blood whenever he needed it.

Luo Qianqian swore she would work even harder to find the rest of the herbal medicines, ‘Murong Yun won’t develop an addiction to my blood if I can find all the herbal medicine soon enough!’

Murong Yun woke up the next morning and he felt good, but somehow there was a faint blood smell in his mouth.

Murong Yun stretched his arms gently only to find there was someone nestling in his arms, it was Luo Qianqian.

Luo Qianqian rubbed her face against Murong Yun’s arm, “Hey, you are up, how are you feeling?”

She stayed up all night worrying and she nestled by Murong Yun’s side just now.

Murong Yun opened his eyes and his heart started to melt on seeing Luo Qianqian’s face, it felt like all the pain he had suffered the whole night didn’t even exist.

‘Has Qianqian stayed up all night?’ Murong Yun couldn’t help but wonder when he saw the dark circles under Luo Qianqian’s eyes.

Luo Qianqian now also opened her eyes, with a smile she asked, “Are you hungry? Let me cook something for you.” with that Luo Qianqian got up.

‘Cook?’

Murong Yun’s body got stiffened, the scene where Luo Qianqian cooked at Master Lingtian’s tavern remained clear and distinct in his mind, the poor kitchen!

“No, Qianqian, I’m not hungry.”

Luo Qianqian came back to bed, she was happy to hear that for she was so sleepy, with a yawn she asked, “Do you want to snuggle more then?”

Murong Yun nodded, “That sounds great.”

“Goodnight, Murong Yun.”

Murong Yun’s eyes sparkled, he stroked Luo Qianqian’s hair with affection and said goodnight.

Luo Qianqian didn’t wake up till the afternoon, she decided to go pay a visit to Master Lingtian instead of going back home.

Murong Yun insisted on keeping Luo Qianqian company despite Luo Qianqian asked him to take rest, Luo Qianqian had to agree. The tavern wasn’t that far away, plus some exercise would only do Murong Yun good.

The two got changed before they walked out, Murong Yun knew white was Luo Qianqian’s favorite color, so he asked his servants to prepare two matching outfits in white for them.

They were both in white, and the embroidery on the sleeves and collars matched to each other, it looked both exquisite and low key.

Su Liancheng who was chatting with Feng Qing in the yard was blown away when he saw the young couple walking out of the room.

This was the first time he had seen Murong Yun in white, his Brother Eighth usually wore black or beige on some occasions, but Murong Yun had never wore white.

And his sister-in-law, her outfit looked so flattering in her, her tiny waist looked even more delicate and the tone of the fabric matched her complexion perfectly. And she surely had done her outfit justice as well, they had added splendor to each other, so beautiful!

Murong Yun and Luo Qianqian showed up hand in hand, Murong Yun looked as handsome as ever, it looked like the pain last night didn’t leave any trace on that flawless face, they were such a beautiful couple.

“Brother Eighth, sister-in-law, look at you two, all dolled up like social butterflies, where are you heading? Tell me please.” Su Liancheng asked in a playful tone, he looked so cheeky.

Luo Qianqian made as if she were to throw a punch at him, “Watch your mouth, young man, I only want to be received with the utmost respect.”

Su Liancheng chuckled, “I’m sorry, sister-in-law, I shouldn’t trifle with you. Can you bring one more bodyguard please?”

Luo Qianqian rolled her eyes, “Young man, just out with it! Quit beating around the bush.”

“I’m sorry, sister-in-law. I believe what I’m asking is where are you heading to, can you please take me with you?”

“We are going to the tavern to see my Master Shifu.”

“How are you going then? On foot? On a horseback? On a carriage?”

Luo Qianqian was confused.

“Your Highness, do you ride horses? We’ve recently got a few ferghana horses” Explained Feng Qing.

‘Ha, Su Liancheng wants to take those babies for a test drive, but Murong Yun doesn’t allow that, so Su Liancheng is relying on me for this.. …’ thought Luo Qianqian.

Well, it worked. Luo Qianqian now itched to try, she had ridden a horse with her bestie in the 21st century, but there were horsekeepers walking by her side to protect her.

‘It’s such a good day, why waste such a good opportunity!’ with that in mind, she locked her eyes on Murong Yun, “Murong Yun~”

The man knew what she meant before she opened her mouth.

Murong Yun replied resignedly, “Yes let’s ride a horse, but you need to ride one with me.”

“No problem!” Luo Qianqian was satisfied because she won’t embarrass herself with Murong Yun’s help.

“You are the best, Brother Eighth!” Su Liancheng was excites as well, he waved at Luo Qianqian, “Come on now, sister-in-law, let’s pick a horse!”

With that Su Liancheng cast a glimpse at Murong Yun, ‘Ha! Brother Eighth, didn’t you just tell me no way would you let me touch your horses, ha! Look at me now!’

Murong Yun glared at Su Liancheng, but Su Liancheng wasn’t afraid of him in Luo Qianqian’s presence.
