Seeing me deep in thought, Feng Tian Yu knew I was worried about this too. Xia Ming Yuan almost blurted out the words he wanted to give me, but he held himself back.
He still didn't know how to say such a thing. He did like me and hoped that the one who would get me in the end would be him, but he hoped that he would be able to get my heart in the open instead of forcing his opponent out like this.
"Xiao Yin, you should rest first. We will investigate this matter carefully. The most important thing right now is your body."
I looked at him, thought about it, and asked the question I had in mind.
"Feng Tian Yu, I asked my master before about the matter of the souls of the villagers and my grandmother. I don't know if I can believe his answer, so I also want to ask you."
Feng Tian Yu didn't expect me to suddenly ask this question and for a moment, didn't know how to reply. Xia Ming Yuan's answer was naturally the best, so he didn't let me worry. However, it was clear that I had become suspicious, which meant that I did not believe him completely.
"Little Yin, we haven't forgotten about this. Your matter is our matter, so we'll help you settle it as soon as possible. Don't worry about that for now, okay?"
Feng Tian Yu's plausible answer made me immediately understand that Xia Mingyuan's words were indeed comforting me; there really wasn't much time left.
But I'm in the hospital now, and I'm so weak I can't do anything but believe them. In fact, they never let me down.
"Of course I believe you! I will take good care of my body, so you don't have to worry about me. "
"Xiao Yin, you're awake?"
Just as I was speaking to Feng Tian Yu, Zhou Xi suddenly walked in. In his hand was a heat preservation box, obviously brought for me to eat.
"Mm, Xi Xi, I'll have to trouble you to take care of me these few days."
Zhou Xi put the heat preservation box in his hand on the bed. He looked at me with a rebuking expression, as if he was angry with me for saying these words.
"What am I taking care of you for? It's just that I'm bringing you food. With so many Flower Protectors by your side, these few people will take turns taking care of you. That's why they're tired. "
I smiled, a little embarrassed. After thinking for a while, I felt that Zhou Xi's words seemed to be a little too provocative. However, I was afraid that I might be suspicious of it, so I shook my head and stopped thinking about it.
"Don't you take care of me by bringing me food every day? They're just standing here as pillars. "
Zhou Xi opened the lunchbox on the table and scooped out the chicken soup. He replied me with a funny smile on his face.
"Xiao Yin, are you stupid? You were asleep before, what did I send you?" I just came today to send you off. Xia Mingyuan said that you should wake up today, so he told me to stew this chicken soup for you. "
I smelled the soup in Zhou Xi's hand. A fresh fragrance assaulted my nose. After being quiet for days, my sense of smell and taste seemed to have come alive. I immediately swallowed my saliva.
Zhou Xi was delighted to see me being so greedy, so he didn't say anything more. He quickly passed the soup to me and brought a spoon over. I took the spoons one by one without even having the time to thank him.
"Drink slowly. No one is fighting with you over this. There's even such a big bowl. Be careful, don't choke on it."
I drank the soup while nodding my head. I didn't know if it was because I had been hungry for a long time, or if it was because Zhou Xixi's culinary skills were truly superb, but before she could finish speaking, the bowl of soup was empty.
"You finished it so quickly. It seems that you're really hungry. Let Zhou Xi fill another bowl for you, and have a hearty drink!"
Feng Tian Yu was very happy to see me drink so happily, so he didn't think much before instructing Zhou Xi as if he were a maid in the Underworld.
Seeing Zhou Xi's hand reach out to take the bowl, it seemed as if he did not hear what Zhou Xi was saying. Zhou Xi felt somewhat unhappy, but he did not want to directly say it.
"Do you think you're just drinking and enjoying yourself!"
I don't know why Feng Tian Yu was choked by me again, but he didn't say anything back. It wasn't easy for him to wait for me to wake up, so even if he were scolded, he would still feel at ease.
Zhou Xi handed me another bowl of soup. This time, I had the last bit of food, so I ate it in a slightly more refined manner.
"Oh yeah, Xi Xi, you said that Master asked you to send this. Why didn't he come to see me when he knew I was about to wake up?"
Zhou Xi shook her head. She didn't know what Xia Mingyuan was up to, but before she left, she specifically asked him if he wanted to go with her. She didn't expect that he would actually reject her offer.
"I don't know, maybe he has something to do. You know your master is always busy, like a country leader."
I was amused by Zhou Xi's tone. I choked on the soup in my mouth and unexpectedly started to cough lightly.
"Are you alright?"
Zhou Xixi originally wanted to reach out and pat my back, but who would've thought that Feng Tian Yu would slowly pat my back first. He then took out a handkerchief from his bosom and wiped my mouth.
"You can splash on the soup like a child and choke on it. What do you think you look like?"
Although Feng Tian Yu's words were unpleasant to hear, everyone could hear the affection in his tone. Zhou Xi embarrassedly retracted his hand, and looked at the floor, not saying another word.
"I don't want you to care, I won't choke to death anyway!"
When Feng Tian Yu saw that I was talking back to him and that I was in good spirits, he wanted to tease me.
"I was looking forward to your choking to death. If you choke to death, then you would be in my territory. At that time, I would tease you and I would be extremely happy."
Feng Tian Yu didn't even consider Zhou Xi's presence when he said this. His tone was a bit frivolous as he spoke to me. I rolled my eyes at him and looked up at Zhou Xi. His face was flushed to the ear.
"You wish!"
Zhou Xi stood still for a while and watched Feng Tian Yu and I bicker. Seeing that I had already drunk two bowls of soup and was in good spirits, he packed up his things and prepared to leave.
"Xiao Yin, rest well. I'll go back first."
I didn't expect Zhou Xixi to leave so soon. It really seemed like she was here specifically to deliver me food, so I extended my hand to stop her. Her eyes were a little red, and there were even some tears on her eyelashes.
"Xi Xi, what's wrong? "How long will it take for you to leave? Why don't you stay with me a bit longer?"
Zhou Xi Xi gently pulled away from my hand and shook his head. " "No need, I don't need to worry about you having someone to accompany you. I still need to go back. Xia Mingyuan is at home alone and hasn't eaten yet …"
"Little Yin, if she wants to go back, she naturally has something to do, but if you try to stop her, it will delay her. Zhou Xi Xi Xi Xi, I'll have to trouble you. When you get home, tell Xia Ming Yuan to come and take my place, I'm going back to the underworld too."
Zhou Xixi nodded and turned to leave. Without looking back at me, I felt that it was getting more and more strange. At the same time, I couldn't figure out why.
"If you have any business in the Underworld, you can leave first. I can handle it by myself."
Feng Tian Yu shook his head. How could he be at ease leaving me here alone? Even if my previous fever wasn't caused by magic, he always had a thorn in his heart and didn't dare to leave me alone.
"Left or right is not an urgent matter. I'll leave after he arrives. You just finished eating, you can rest for a while."
Initially, I had slept for a long time and was extremely clear-headed. However, if Feng Tian Yu and I were to sit here, I would feel really awkward. Thus, I could only nod my head and fall asleep with my eyes closed.
Initially, I only wanted to tease Feng Tian Yu for a bit, but after he left, I got up. Unexpectedly, after a while, I closed my eyes and dozed off again.
