As he listened to some of the joyous tunes that Xia Li was humming, telling him about them for the rest of the time, Xia Li took him on a walk for a while, rested a bit more, and after a while, he slowly stopped being on guard against her, and accepted the little woman who kept brushing his eyes at all times.

The gentle spring breeze caressed their bodies, causing their bones to soften.

"Are you tired? If you're tired, rest a bit more."

Xia Li held Sun Chun's hand and the two of them walked towards a tree. They stopped and Xia Li let go of his hand and consciously leaned against a tree, slightly narrowing his eyes.

"I'm fine."

Sun Chun also rested against a tree. Looking at his empty hands, he felt a sense of loss and disappointment, he looked at the little girl who was already sleeping against the tree trunk, and just now he was even asking if he was tired.

As if he was infected by Xia Li's sleepiness, Sun Chun closed his eyes to rest, but he only dozed off. After a long period of time, he finally regained consciousness and immediately woke Xia Li up.

"Lazy Cat, stop sleeping. We have to hurry!"

"What time is it now? Why am I asleep?"

Xia Li opened his eyes and looked at the sun which was already high up in the sky.

"Why didn't you wake me up earlier?" Xia Li complained at Sun Chun.

Then why don't I just wake you up and let you sleep until the sun sets? Or should I go back now and find the Grand Master Ding by yourself?

Sun Chun looked at Xia Li who was panicking, and tried to pour cold water at any time to anger her.

"Big brother Sun Chun, please do well, stop messing around, we will just walk slowly, it was my fault just now, I shouldn't have blamed you."

Xia Li coaxed Sun Chun along the way, holding his hand, they travelled together.

Sun Chun was actually a good girl. Even though her face was covered with a layer of ice, she allowed Xia Li to drag her way to town using hospital. Normally, it would only take him an incense's worth of time to travel alone, so the two of them walked for an entire two hours.

Sun Chun's complexion had also gradually turned pale from its rosy state, and half of its body was leaning on Xia Li's body. It had lasted all the way until Ding Liang's hospital, and both of them were extremely exhausted.

"Miss Xia Li, you're here.

"Tea, man!"

Ding Liang helped Xia Li to sit on a chair by the side, and called a waiter to serve him tea.

The clever shop assistant had long poured two cups of tea and placed it on the tea table between Xia Li and himself, before quietly retreating.

"Miss Xia Li, this is?"

Ding Liang looked at Sun Chun's pale face, stepped forward and held onto's wrist, closing his eyes and frowned.

"Young man, your body?"

Grand Master Ding, this is one of our village's neighbors, he went out to do business, he met bandits along the way and cut his abdomen, I did not have time to treat him, so I brought him here specifically to your shop, he might need to stay here for a few days, what do you think, is it convenient?

As Xia Li said that, he lifted up Sun Chun's clothes, revealing a long knife wound on his abdomen.

"If this wound was any deeper, it would have injured my internal organs. The robbers sure are ruthless. I'm glad that young master managed to survive."

Ding Liang sighed with emotion as he inspected the wound on Sun Chun's abdomen.

"Miss Xia Li, don't worry, since we are your neighbors, I will naturally take care of them. There is no problem with staying for a few days, I will get the servants to clean up the guest rooms."
