Chapter 675 - 675 I Won't Let You Go

675 I Won’t Let You Go

Bai Xu woke up in the middle of the night.

She first looked at Hu Changshou warily and realized that he had fallen asleep instead of escaping. Bai Xu heaved a sigh of relief.

If Hu Changshou escaped while she was unconscious, Grandma would punish her again.

No matter how seriously injured she was, as long as she did not do what Grandma had told her to do, she was guilty.

Bai Xu raised her hand and realized that the wound did not hurt so much anymore. She took a look and saw the dregs of herbs falling to the ground under the moonlight.

Bai Xu was stunned. She could not help but glance at Hu Changshou. She recalled what Hu Changshou had said.

Many emotions surged in her heart.

Bai Xu was about to get up when he realized that there were also herbal dregs on her calf. She lowered her eyes in a daze and did not move again.

After a while, Bai Xu came back to her senses. She looked at the sleeping Hu Changshou with a confused expression.

She didn’t understand why Hu Changshou would do such a thing.

Bai Xu’s gaze moved down and finally landed on Hu Changshou’s hand. Her gaze turned cold and she was no longer confused. What could a person who was about to die want? He just felt that she was a little girl who was easy to coax and wanted to trick her into letting him go.

He wanted to deceive her with just a small favor.

Bai Xu’s eyes were cold. She took out a piece of dry biscuit and threw it at Hu Changshou. She turned around as if nothing had happened.

Hu Changshou was woken up by the impact. Then, he saw the biscuit under the moonlight. He picked it up with difficulty and ate it in small bites. He thanked Bai Xu softly. “Thank you, Miss.”

Bai Xu did not respond. She did not care.

After eating, Hu Changshou whispered to Bai Xu, “Miss, I want to relieve myself.”

Bai Xu’s lips curled up. She knew it.

She ignored him.

Hu Changshou didn’t mind. He whispered again, “Miss, everyone has these needs. You don’t want me to lose control, right?”

Bai Xu looked at Hu Changshou and said coldly, “Then go. Don’t play any tricks. Otherwise, I’ll break your leg with a whip.”

Bai Xu got up. Although her wound still hurt a little, this pain was nothing to her.

She pushed Hu Changshou to the forest below.

She kept smiling coldly at Hu Changshou, waiting for him to coax her.

Hu Changshou did not look at Bai Xu much. He just unbuttoned his pants after reaching the tree. He said apologetically, “Miss, the sound might insult your ears, why don’t you walk further away? If you’re worried, you can tie me to the tree with a rope to prevent me from escaping.”

Bai Xu sneered. “There’s no need. I don’t care about these things, and I don’t have any taboos.”

Next, he would probably have to talk about applying medicine for her.

Bai Xu sneered in her heart. She had already thought of what she would say next.

As long as he said that, not only would she not be soft-hearted, she would only tell him coldly, “Who asked you to be a busybody? I didn’t ask you to help me.”

However, what Bai Xu thought did not happen.

After she finished speaking, Hu Changshou did not speak.

After a while, Bai Xu heard a pattering sound, like rain.

She quickly realized what it was and Bai Xu frowned.

It didn’t take long for the noise to stop.

After a while, Hu Changshou heaved a sigh of relief and said, “Miss, I’m done.”

Bai Xu brought Hu Changshou back until they were not far from Bai Liu. Hu Changshou sat down and closed his eyes to sleep. He did not even mention anything other than relieving himself.

Bai Xu frowned and pursed her lips. She could not help but glance at Hu Changshou. In the end, she bit her lip and comforted herself that this must be an even deeper scheme of his.

He did not speak because he was deep in thought. He was still conserving his energy. He must have remembered the two days that Grandma had mentioned, so he would definitely wait for an opportunity to take action in the next two days.

Thinking of this, Bai Xu felt more at ease.

She was no longer suspicious. She focused on circulating her energy to heal her injuries faster.

The next day, Bai Liu did not give Hu Changshou anything to eat.

Bai Xu did not either. She did not mention anything about Hu Changshou applying medicine for her.

On the third day, Bai Xu was much better. She was no longer limping.

When Hu Changshou had to relieve himself, Bai Xu supervised him.

After leaving Bai Liu, Hu Changshou smiled and said softly, “Miss, your injuries recovered very quickly. That’s good. That herb is very easy to recognize. If you’re injured next time, you can find some. It’s also very easy to use. You can chew it and apply it to your wound, or crush it with a stone and apply it to your wound.”

“This herb doesn’t have much use. Its only use is that it’s especially effective in stopping bleeding. In the past, when I cut my hand and bled, just a little medicinal juice would immediately stop the bleeding.”

Hu Changshou couldn’t help but laugh. Su Xiaolu was the one who told them about these simple medicinal theories.

The poultry at home would contract the plague. What herbs to use to quickly recover and what should be avoided, were all taught to them by Su Xiaolu.

Xu’er also looked like she often got injured. Some of her scars did not heal well and looked like they had rotted for a long time.

She probably did not know about medicine. If she could remember this herb, she would recover faster when she was injured in the future.

“I can’t let you go even if you tell me this.”

Bai Xu sneered. She did not have the time to beat around the bush with him, so she could not be bothered to pretend with him. She directly told him coldly not to do this. This was useless to her!

Hu Changshou smiled faintly. “It’s okay.”

After saying this, Hu Changshou stopped talking. From Bai Xu’s words, he already knew what she meant. Perhaps he did not mean that, but she thought he did.

There was no need to explain anything. They did not know each other to begin with.

Hu Changshou remained silent and obediently followed Bai Xu back.

Hu Changshou had not eaten anything for the past two days. No matter how good his body was, he looked a little weak.

Bai Xu looked at his back and stopped in her tracks to pull Hu Changshou’s rope. Hu Changshou was puzzled and turned around. “What’s wrong?”

Bai Xu lowered his eyes. “If you want to eat something, I can give it to you.”

Hu Changshou looked at Bai Xu’s clenched fists and shook his head. He chuckled and said, “No need. Miss, you don’t have to think too much. I did that because I have a cousin who looks like you. That’s why I did that.”

With that, Hu Changshou turned around and walked forward.

This time, Bai Xu did not pull the rope.

However, when they returned to Bai Liu, Bai Liu was not meditating. She looked at Bai Xu coldly. Her cold gaze made Hu Changshou feel that something was wrong.

As expected, in the next second, Bai Liu berated coldly, “B*tch, kneel down.”

Bai Xu was stunned and puzzled, but she immediately knelt down and apologized. “Grandma, don’t be angry. Xu’er knows her mistake.”
