On the night of the wedding, the long sword stabbed into her chest, her gaze still as cold as ever.

Even if her body was not feeling well right now, as long as she wanted to hide it, no one would be able to see a single flaw. Even on the day that her grandfather passed away, she was calm and collected, even her tears were calm.

However, Duan Chengxuan didn't think of the reaction of those words.

The person on the bed was still looking at him calmly. After a moment of contemplation, he placed both his hands on the man's chest and laughed, saying with a trembling voice, "What do you want me to do? Let me cry. Are you going to scream for pain? "

"These are all useless things. If they can't become my weapons and armor, then why do I have to be a pitiful wailing worm?" Gu Danyan pushed him away abruptly and sat by the bed, clutching his shirt tightly. Countless emotions surged in her heart, as if it was a simple sentence, "Just treat it as me not being a human being."

Duan Chengxuan was pushed aside and staggered a few steps forward. Before the silence swept over him, he still calmly walked a few steps forward. "I'll help you treat your injuries."

"No need, I can do it myself." Gu Mingyan shrunk back into the bed. A headache came without warning, causing her to rub her forehead in pain. "I want to go back."

"What I just said …"

"Whatever you say, whatever you think." Gu Danyan pressed his palm against the corner of his eyes, wiping away the tears that were on the verge of falling out of the box. He kept his voice steady: "I don't feel pain, and I don't like shouting. I'm indeed a bit unlike a human."

She knew that once she gained a certain amount of intelligence, she would pay the same amount of money.

She had never felt safe with anyone, not in the darkness of her two lifetimes, not in the wind, not in reality. It had made her, but it had also made her smart enough and focused enough on medicine.

She had just lost some of her panic and helplessness, so she should remain calm.

She kept hinting to herself mentally, and when she raised her head again, she could even put on a faint smile, "You're right, but I can cure all these wounds myself. You might be able to go and take a look at those assassins."

Duan Cheng Xuan was speechless for a moment.

More than once, he had felt strange from Gu Liuyan. Just now, his slip of the tongue had destroyed her disguise, but she had quietly buried it.

"We should talk when we get back."

"Any time." Gu Liuyan spoke casually. She stood up and walked to her desk, no longer caring about his presence. She pulled open her clothes, revealing the knife wound, which was not very deep, and lowered her head to clean it.

Duan Chengxuan could only go outside to deal with the assassins.

The moment the door closed, the person inside the room sat down in a dejected manner. Looking at the blood on his fingertips, he couldn't help but laugh bitterly, "I didn't expect that even after a lifetime, no one would still treat me as a human being."

When everything returned to silence and Duan Chengxuan brought the soldiers back with the food in the box, she had long since treated the wounds on his body and asked about the origins of these people as if nothing had happened.

However, she didn't know that Duan Chengxuan was staring at her from the start to the end with a fixed gaze.

Just as Gu Daiyan had guessed, Emperor Jiang Yan had truly set her gaze on Ai Qi. She believed that the Ai family wanted to usurp power and take Jiang Yan's hand, and she was even more disgusted that Gu Cheng was actually able to win over Princess Erdan for help, intentionally provoking and provoking them.

Not too long after, however, news of the attack on Princess Eldan arrived.

The soldiers had used the safety of their princess as an excuse to bring him back, so there was nothing inappropriate about it. Before they left, Gu Danyan had only sent a letter to Gu Cheng, telling him that all of this was Su Yuwan's doing.

"Su Yuwan's crowning ceremony is coming soon. I can only help you to this point."

With just a few words, Gu Cheng tore the letter into pieces after reading it, "This damned Su Yuwan, she's really like a ghost that haunts the world. I had thought that I would be able to get the elixir of longevity as soon as possible."

"Nothing can go smoothly." Gu Sheng whispered.

Gu Cheng could only feel a little better. Looking outside, his lips curled up, "Looks like the sky's going to change."

Gu Sheng was silent.

The sky turned from sunny to cloudy. Before the sun set, it was already raining heavily.

Compared to staying in an inn in the city, the few of them hurriedly chose a small town in the countryside. After spending enough money, they could get a proper house. Even so, it was still crowded.

"I can stay awake." Gu Liuyan was so stubborn that he didn't want to share a bed with Duan Chenxuan anymore.

"You're hurt." Duan Chengxuan had no choice but to follow along, and he knew that his slip of the tongue would cause him to feel even more regretful. "I really shouldn't have said those words. I just felt that you were too calm, and that you should pay more attention to yourself …"

However, Gu Danyan moved a stool over and sat under the eaves, looking at the rain droplets: "I can't sleep, I just want to be quiet for a while."

Duan Cheng Xuan really respected her choice.

Duan Chengxuan thought that Gu Mingyan would retreat in the cold night air and honestly throw her cold body into the warm bedding, but she didn't do so in the end.

She only let her imagination run wild with the rain, until the next morning when the sky brightened and the rain began to subside.

"You've been here all this time?" Gu Liuyan looked curiously at Duan Chengxuan beside her.

"Always." Duan Cheng Xuan finally walked over to her side with sour legs and sat cross-legged on the ground. "I owe you."

These words were caught off guard, but Gu Daiyan understood the chilliness in these words. He wiped away the clothes by his hand and half propped up his cheek: "Even if I didn't meet you, I still live like this."

"I will practice medicine to save people. I will traverse thousands of miles."

"Then he died in a place that nobody cared about."

Her voice gradually grew softer, but her heart was still aching. Her fingertips clenched as she said, "This is no big deal."

Duan Chengxuan opened his mouth, but from the start, he didn't say a single word.

Even though the two of them understood each other, he still didn't understand what Gu Danyan really cared about and what he wanted.

There wasn't much to say on the way, the only thing that changed was that Gu Danyan was unable to sleep.

The night before she returned to Er Dan, she woke up from her dream and fell on the side of the bed. However, she only clutched her chest and panted heavily, not mentioning everything in her dreams.

Duan Cheng Xuan was extremely furious.

After entering the city, he walked straight to the side courtyard to deal with the documents, while Gu Liuyan pretended that nothing had happened and only returned to his own courtyard after comforting Yun Tong that he wasn't hurt.

When the ghost arrived, he saw Gu Danyan holding Qing Ze in her arms.

"The Prince told me what happened on the way here." The ghost opened his mouth.

Gu Danyan froze on the spot and looked at him: "Am I overreacting?"
