C120 I will do as you say

The fire had long since gone out.

The person next to him was covered in a thick layer of sand, as if he had been buried.

In the rain, he was heartbroken. "Little girl, little girl …"

He used both of his hands to pull her up, her body almost stiff and cold in his embrace.

He carried her into the house amidst the rain and wind. "Quick, someone, get some clean clothes and cook the ginger soup, quick …"

He did not know who had given him the clothes, but he simply took off her wet clothes, dried her with a large towel, and tucked her under the covers.

Her body was still ice-cold, but her forehead was burning hot. Her eyes were tightly shut, as if she would never be able to open them again.

His voice was almost hoarse as he randomly stripped off his clothes and threw them on the ground. He lightly wiped them off before jumping onto the bed. He tightly embraced her. Her four limbs were still as cold as before.

"Little girl, don't die! Little girl, don't die ah …" As long as you don't die, I will do whatever you say … "Little girl, I don't hate you, I don't hate you …"

When the ginger soup was delivered, he used all his might to slap her. When she got a little cold, he opened her mouth and poured the soup into her mouth one mouthful at a time.

Even after drinking a big bowl of ginger soup, her eyes were still tightly shut. The heat spread from her forehead to her entire body, making her look like a piece of red-hot coal.

King Qin did not care about the difference between man and woman. He took her hand out from under the blanket and handed it over to him: "Leng Da, quickly, look and see if she will die."

Leng Dazhi felt her pulse for a moment, then he looked at her eyelids: "Great King, she is too frightened, too tired, and also wet. The situation is very serious, so you have to take care of her."

"Will he die?"

"If the fever goes away before tomorrow morning, it will be all right. If it doesn't, it will be a little dangerous …"

King Qin was extremely anxious: "Do you think she's still going to die?"

"Hurry, hurry and make the herbs, then bring some cold water …"

Two small fry s came in and served her, constantly changing cold towels. Qin Da took the towels and placed them on her forehead, then changed them every half an incense stick of time. Fear and worry had long ago caused him to forget his fatigue. He only hugged her tightly and muttered to himself, "This time, I harmed Little girl … Little girl, I didn't want to hurt you anymore … Girl … "Wake up quickly …"

However, she did not wake up. Instead, she obediently lay in his arms, not moving at all.

He touched her forehead, which was still burning hot, and asked absentmindedly, "Little girl, what should we do?"

A small fry said, "Great King, give her another bowl of medicinal herbs."

"Good, good, good."

Another large bowl of herbs was poured into his mouth. He didn't know if it was effective or not, but he suddenly shouted, "Quick, go get that ginseng. It's the 1000-year-old ginseng, use it to make soup …"

"Good, everyone says that a thousand years of ginseng can extend one's life …"

"What are you blabbering about? Hurry up and roast the ginseng soup …"

After the two lackeys left for a while, the big guy with a bit of medical knowledge entered again. The King Qin didn't even raise his head: "Is the ginseng soup done?"

"ginseng soup?"

That piece of ginseng was stolen from him and was extremely precious. The King Qin himself was reluctant to take it, afraid that he would be in serious pain and use it to extend his life. Yet, he did not hesitate to give it to the woman to consume. Who was this woman to him?

"Great King, you cannot casually consume ginseng soup. With her current condition, I'm afraid that her condition will worsen if I take her in. "

King Qin was even more afraid when he heard the words of the ginseng, "So you're saying that there's no cure for her?"

Big Cold touched her pulse again. "Don't panic, Great King. It's not that serious."

"Will she be all right?"

"She'll be fine when she's out of high fever. "Don't worry."

"But we haven't retreated yet …" "No, we have to use ginseng."

"Use the herbs first, then give her a big bowl in the morning. She just has a fever and doesn't need to use ginseng. "

"Can't ginseng extend one's life?"

"She doesn't need to extend her life …" "Your Majesty, you should stay …"

"Alright, we'll wait for her to recover. I'll let her drink tomorrow."

He was left speechless and had no choice but to leave.

King Qin was finally relieved. He looked at the pale face in his bosom, then touched her dry and powerless hands and felt exceptionally angry. Aren't you proud of it? Don't you like to threaten your father? Didn't they think that with Yue Pengju, they would not even put me in their eyes? It's always like this, always trying to scare me to death, always making me give in so pitifully … Ai, pitiful girl, hurry up and get well. As long as you're well, I'll do whatever you say …

However, he also felt gratified, that sorrowful joy, that the person in his embrace was so warm, that it was a poison that he was addicted to, the memories of all those years ago had returned completely.

He lowered his head and stared at her pale lips. His body began to heat up again, as if he were looking at a fragrant flower. In the end, he couldn't help but kiss her passionately.

Her eyes were closed and she felt nothing.

After kissing for a long time, he finally stopped and sighed, "Girl, if you don't kiss me, I'll kiss you."

He ordered two thick quilts to be held tightly over her, and after a while she was covered with sweat. He held her sweaty body in his arms. Although he was also stuffy and hot, he didn't dare move the blanket away. He knew that if she sweated like this, she would be fine tomorrow.

After tossing and turning until dawn, he also entered into a semi-dazed state. However, he suddenly felt that his body had visibly moved. Following that, a mournful wail could be heard, "No, don't …. "Please spare me …"

He opened his eyes and was ecstatic. "Little girl, little girl, you're awake?"

The person in his arms still had her eyes tightly closed. Only two bean-sized tears flowed out from the corners of her eyes.

"Little girl, did you have a nightmare?"

He lowered his head and kissed the tears at the corners of her eyes. He let out a long sigh as he looked out the window at the dawn. He didn't know if he was happy or sad.

By morning, she was still unconscious, but the heat on her forehead was fading.

King Qin got up and opened the window. After a night of storm, a fresh sea breeze blew in, bringing with it a fishy smell. However, it was cold.

He walked to the door and said to the small fry on duty, "Don't disturb me today."

"Yes."

The moment he turned around, he saw Zhou Wu standing sneakily at the door, his face filled with anxiety.

"King, Miss Hua Rong, she …?"

"I will take care of her, what are you worried about? "When she's done, I will agree to your conditions."

Zhou Wu wasn't sure if he meant it or not, but he didn't dare to say anything more, so he could only leave.

King Qin shut the door with a "bang" and walked back to the bedside, seeing that she was still unconscious. Even after a night of torment, he felt extremely tired. It was as if he had endured every night since he had left her that day. Even though he had been having fun, his heart had never been truly relaxed or happy for even a moment. He returned to the bed and took her in his arms again. Now, being able to hold her in his arms again, it was as if he had returned to that night in the bridal chamber. That wonderful, intoxicating feeling — he would never want to miss it again.

He had been tired for the whole night. At this moment, he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

He was still in a daze when he suddenly heard a sad cry. He opened his eyes and saw that the person in his embrace was crying. The sound was intermittent.

"Little girl, little girl, what happened to you?"

He sat up in a hurry and held her until he realized she was talking in her sleep.

Why did she cry so heartbreakingly when she was unconscious?

He held her head close to his chest and stroked her messy hair and whispered, "Little girl, don't cry anymore. In the future, I will do whatever you say."

After Zhou Wu withdrew, he became very uneasy.

One of the pirates mocked, "Zhou Wu, you can go back and report now."

"The King hasn't agreed yet."

"How could the King not agree?" The pirate lowered his voice. "The King gave her our thousand-year-old ginseng to drink. How could she not agree?"

Zhou Wu was overjoyed, "Really?"

"If you don't believe me, go and ask Cold Night."

Zhou Wu himself was gradually seeing that the King Qin treated Hua Rong differently, because those who were familiar with the King Qin knew that he would definitely not stay overnight with any woman. Furthermore, when the girl was sick, not only did she stay in his room all night last night, he had to take care of her as well.

For people like the King Qin, to have to take care of a woman all day and all night was far too inconceivable.

While he was still in shock, one of the pirates suddenly asked, "Could that woman be the King's wife?"

"Really?"

"King Qin went to sea last winter to find a wife. Isn't that the woman?"

"It must be. Otherwise, why would the King be so good to her? The King himself would not be willing to part with the thousand-year-old ginseng. "

When Zhou Wu heard these discussions, he was both surprised and happy. He slapped his thigh and said, "This time, everyone will have a chance to become wives."

No one knew that he had gone there to rescue the Zhaojiaji. They all looked at him in confusion, thinking that he had gone crazy. Right at this time, a small fry walked over. "Zhou Wu, the King wants you to go back and inform Zhou Qi first. Evacuate the people here on the island and ensure their safety."

"Where's Miss Hua Rong?"

"When she gets better, King Qin will personally bring her here."

He opened his eyes and found himself lying in a big chest, as hot as a soldering iron. As for himself, he was not an inch from the ground at all. She was so frightened that she almost screamed. She wanted to sit up, but she was held by his big arms and could not sit up.

King Qin was shocked awake, he immediately touched her forehead and said happily: "Little girl, your fever is back, are you alright?"

"Let me go."

She shouted loudly, but found that her voice was hoarse and unable to make any sounds at all. She stood up and was about to jump down.

King Qin held her in his arms and said gently: "Little girl, don't be afraid. I won't hurt you. I won't do anything at all."

"Clothes, my clothes …"

He sat up and took a thin nightgown made of soft silk. "Girl, you got wet last night. You had a fever. I took off your clothes for you …" "Other than that, there's nothing else …"

As he spoke, he dressed her, and in the end clumsily fastened the butterfly buttons.

For a moment she looked at him blankly, as if she couldn't recognize him. The face in front of him was not that of a terrifying demon, nor was it that of a demon from his memories. Instead, it was unfamiliar, as if he was extremely tired and was a very strong stranger.

"Girl, are you hungry? I'll tell someone to bring you something to eat. "

She did not speak.

His mind was in a mess and his entire body was weak without any strength.

After a long moment, he suddenly recalled his purpose in coming here, and then let out another squeal. However, when the squawk reached his throat, it began to rumble, as if a parrot who couldn't speak properly was unable to utter a complete sentence.

He looked at her chaotic gaze and completely understood what she meant, "Girl, I already told Zhou Wu to go back and bring Zhao Deji and the others back to the island first."

She closed her eyes, and at the corners of her eyes, for some reason, two more tears fell.

Even many years ago on the island, when she was still a little girl and had just been swept onto the island, King Qin had never seen her so sad. With pain in her heart, she reached out her palm to wipe her tears, caressing her messy hair and said gently, "Girl, it's all my fault, as long as you don't agree, I won't force you in the future. "Don't be afraid."

She suddenly opened her eyes and hesitated, "King Qin, thank you!"

In his memory, this was the first time the two of them calmly conversed like this.

King Qin was surprised and happy at the same time. He hugged her tightly, "Girl, as long as you are fine, I am willing to do anything for you."

She slowly sat up in his arms and whispered, "I want to get up."

He knew she was worried about Zhao Deji and his entourage, so he immediately said, "Girl, your body is weak. For the time being, the Bird Emperor was in no danger. When you're done, I'll personally send them off. "

"Yes, thank you."

She knew that at this moment, she could only follow his instructions. Although she was extremely anxious, she had no choice but to agree.
