"I'm fine!" Ji Lianye frowned and the blush on her face became even deeper. She was too lazy to move and leaned against the wall to squint at her. "Sanniang put breakfast in the pot. It'll be ready once it gets hot."
"…" Was this the main point?!
Shen Zhi Qiao's mouth twitched, he turned around and added some cold water into the basin on the wooden shelf. He soaked the handkerchief and brought it to Shen Zhi, "Wipe your face first."
Ji Lianye raised her eyebrows and took it over with her dry lips.
Shen saw that he had finished wiping and passed the handkerchief to her. "Where did you sleep last night?" He stared at the blanket on his body. "It can't be here, right?"
Ji Lianye lowered her eyes, "I wouldn't feel wronged like this …" The family next door will be staying over, and I just got back! "
"…" Shen Zhi Qiao was stunned for a moment before nodding his head. He walked around to the stove and opened the lid. There was white porridge and steamed buns.
"Ahhh …" Ji Lian Ye sneezed. His nose was blocked.
Seeing this, Shen Zhiqiao ignored him and said, "You go sit by the side first. I'll heat up the porridge and steamed buns in the pot. It might be more comfortable for you to eat some."
Ji Lian Ye frowned and moved aside obediently.
"After you eat, go to the doctor and have a look."
Today is the fourth day, someone must be worried.
If she went back alone, she might encounter something along the way.
Besides, Ji Lian Ye had been out for a few days. It was about time to go back. With him around, they could look after each other.
She had planned to tell him about it last night, to send her home.
Now that he was sick, she couldn't say.
Let's wait for him to recover before we bring it up.
The moment he thought of going back, Shen Zhi Qiao's brows tightened.
She wanted to go back because he was in the palace, and she couldn't wait to tell him that they had children.
However, when she thought of the group of men in black from a few days ago, she couldn't help but tremble in fear.
If he could return to the palace successfully, what would happen after that?
Ji Lianye was leaning against the table, but his eyes were following Shen Zhiqiao's every movement.
Seeing her slim body swaying in front of him, he felt in a good mood for no reason.
He was in a good mood even with a headache and a sore throat.
Shen Zhi Qiao's mind was preoccupied. He didn't notice Shen Zhi's sharp eyes as he moved the hot white porridge and steamed buns onto the table and scooped a bowl for him. "Drink some warm food first."
Ji Lian Ye smiled and stretched out his slender fingers. When he took the bowl from her, he accidentally touched the back of her hand. Although it was only for an instant, the feeling of the bowl slipping had reached the tip of his heart.
He felt his heart beating rapidly. His handsome face flushed red. His legs felt like they were floating on cotton. Unexpectedly, he felt a rare sense of elegance and nervousness.
Ji Lianye held her fist to her mouth to cover her coughing, but her eyes remained glued to Shen Zhiqiao's body.
Shen Jingbin was eating congee when she heard his cough. She raised her head to look at him and saw that his face was getting redder and redder. She wrinkled her brow and decided that she would take him to see a doctor after dinner.
Otherwise, if he became more and more serious, then her return to the palace would be far too distant.
This meal was quite quiet.
After eating, Shen Zhiqiao packed his things and was about to take him to see a doctor.
Ji Lianye was used to being arrogant. She thought that it would be embarrassing for a man like him to go to a doctor just because he was sick!
He wanted to go because he needed to escort him back to the palace. At the same time, he was at a loss for words because of his reasons for not going.
Of the two, one wanted to go, while the other refused.
In the end, the two of them were unable to step down from the stage.
Shen Zhi Qiao glared at him, then turned around and left in a huff.
Seeing her leave, the corner of Ji Lian's mouth twitched.
He sat in the room for a while, but he didn't see her come in again.
Ye Zichen twitched his sleeves in annoyance. Forget it, I'll just go. I'm not familiar with this place anyways, no one will know about it.
He stood up and prepared to go out and tell her.
However, just as he stood up, before he could even take a step, a shout came from outside.
His heart skipped a beat and he flashed out like a gust of wind.
The moment she stepped out of the door, she saw several masked men in black covering her mouth as they dragged her out.
Ji Lianye's eyes narrowed and a bloodthirsty arc appeared at the corner of her mouth. She moved as fast as lightning, and shielded her behind like a vigilant beast, "Who is it?"
While he was speaking, more black clothed men came in from the door, surrounding the two of them.
One of them pointed his sword at Shen Zhi Qiao and said viciously, "Those who don't want to die, hand her over."
Ji Lian Ye laughed arrogantly, "Those who don't want to die, scram!"
"You refused a toast and refused a forfeit!" The sword wielder snorted as he glanced at the men in black around him and said, "Go!"
In an instant, everyone surrounded and attacked.
Seeing that, Shen Zhi Qiao's face turned pale, his hands instinctively covering his stomach.
Ji Lian Ye's jaw was set, and his lips curved into a vicious smile. He then turned his head to look at the person hiding behind him, and his eyes turned completely black. He gritted his teeth and said, "You're courting death!"
Before he could finish his sentence, he had already stepped forward.
In the midst of the battle, he had protected Shen Jiqiao extremely well.
Because of the child in his stomach, Shen Zhi Qiao was not as relaxed as he was before. Thus, he had to follow behind Ji Lian Ye. The silver needles in his sleeves had been used up a long time ago.
Fortunately, other than Ji Lianye, who had an arrogant attitude, she did have some real ability. Compared to Leng Yan, his skills were much better.
Ji Lian Ye's attacks were ruthless and aimed at the vital parts, saving them a lot of time of being together.
However, two fists were not enough to fight against four hands, not to mention that his fists required more than just four hands.
In addition, his head was throbbing and his temples throbbed. From time to time, he would feel dizzy, making him feel even more irritated. Over time, he also felt a little powerless.
Shen Zhi Qiao's heart skipped a beat, "Ji Lian Ye, how are you feeling?"
Hearing her voice, Ji Lian Ye shook her head and smiled, "How could these scum be a match for me? Don't worry, I will protect you!"
Shen Zhi Qiao's throat moved slightly. At this moment, she felt gratitude from the bottom of her heart for those words.
She pursed her lips and said softly, "Thank you!"
Ji Lian Ye couldn't see her face, but the moment her soft and sweet voice entered his ear, he suddenly felt that he was even willing to die here today.
Just as he was wondering if he could have such a strange thought, his body was suddenly pushed forward.
She was shocked and hurriedly looked up only to see someone holding a sword and thrusting it towards her.
His heart suddenly stopped. He felt a ferocious panic that made his head hurt more and more. In the end, he could not move at all.
Seeing that the sword was about to stab into his heart, Shen Zhi Qiao's pupils rapidly constricted. His hand that was covering his stomach suddenly tightened as his already slim body trembled like the wind.
At this critical moment, the sword that was thrusting towards her was broken in front of her heart. Then, a red dress flashed into her eyes, and a faint familiar Dragon's Saliva entered her nose and cut her waist in half, heavily crashing into a warm embrace.
