C87

I told myself that this time, I definitely could not be deceived by Mu Huainan's gentle facade again!

Which means I don't want to hear it.

I heard him say.

Since he already knew, then let's not talk about it anymore.

That's what I said to him in my heart.

"I'll make you understand." He sighed. "I'm sorry I messed up tonight. I promise you, I'll let you know everything you want to know."

Then I heard footsteps receding, the bedroom door opened, and I heard him say, "You slept for a day and a night, and I'll make you something to eat."

Then the door closed and the room fell silent again.

I actually slept for a day and a night?

Still dazed, I rolled over and opened my eyes to the ceiling and the empty room.

There was a smooth touch, and when I picked it up, I saw it was the picture.

The girl in the photo was both familiar and unfamiliar.

I don't know if it was my own subjective consciousness or not, but from the first moment I saw this picture, I had the feeling that this girl had no resemblance to me other than her facial features.

If a person understands you, they can naturally observe other than the facial features that are unexpected, but if it's just a casual relationship, they might think that I'm in this photo.

Just thinking about it makes my head hurt. I regret it so much. I really shouldn't have taken a cold shower. There are many ways to wake myself up. Why should I torment myself like this?

He really had no time for regret.

As his mind was filled with all sorts of thoughts, not long later, Mu Huainan walked in with a bowl in his hand.

Lean porridge.

He sat down next to me, scooped a spoonful of it and blew it gently on his lips. Then he brought it to my lips.

"I'll do it myself."

I rarely use this kind of cold attitude to treat Mu Huainan, and before, I didn't dare to do it because I didn't dare. But now, since I can no longer find a reason to stay by his side, I'm no longer afraid that he'll one day abandon me.

Anyway, I'm ready to be thrown out.

The hand holding the porridge bowl suddenly stiffened. I looked up at him as he peeled an egg for me.

The thoughts that flashed through my mind were all just talking to myself. I couldn't help but think of those. It was these thoughts that made me feel apprehensive.

The reason why I was afraid of Mu Huainan before, was only because I was afraid of him being abandoned by him.

I had always thought that the thing I was looking forward to was leaving Mu Huainan, but now, I truly understood that the thing I was afraid of the most was actually leaving Mu Huainan.

He quickly finished his porridge, then ate the eggs that Mu Huainan had peeled for me, as well as the antipyretic medicine.

His stomach was bloated, and he took my temperature again.

I saw him busy, his face very unsightly, his lips white.

Was it because he was too tired?

I couldn't help looking at him more.

Mu Huainan carried the empty porridge bowl to the door and helped me turn off the light. His voice came from within the darkness.

"Rest early."

Then, one could hear the sound of his body colliding into the wall, and the sound of his chopsticks falling to the ground and shattering.

Startled, I sat up in bed.

The room was dark, and I could barely make out the light coming from the corridor outside, which was imprinted on Mu Huainan's body.

He fell, slumped against the wall, his other hand clasped to his heart.

What was he?

I couldn't help but call out to him. "Uncle Huainan, are you alright?"

He pulled back his blanket and was about to take a look when he heard his brave reply.

"It's fine, you take a break. I just slipped."

Then he got up quickly and went out, closing my door.

I sat alone in the empty room, my mind replaying the scene.

Mu Huainan had never been so weak before, even if I knew that he was a workaholic, even if I knew that he rarely ate or slept for an entire week other than hugging me, I was never worried about his body, because no matter when or where I met him, he always looked cold and proud, with a strong aura that prevented me from seeing even the slightest weakness.

But today, he actually fell in front of me?

He couldn't even hold the chopsticks?

The more I thought about it, the more it seemed wrong.

Pulling back the covers, I groped for my slippers, got out of bed, turned on the light, and went out.

I saw Mu Huainan leaning on the living room's sofa with his eyes closed and his brows furrowed into a knot. His finger was still placed on his chest and on the table in front of him, there was an unpacked porridge bowl.

He would never drag out what he had to do, unless he was really upset.

I looked at him, my heart crinkling in dull pain.

"Uncle Huainan." I went over and called to him.

The closed eyes finally opened with a slight tremor, like a fog of confusion, and floated in the air for a moment before falling wearily upon me.

The blood in his eyes made my heart ache.

"What's wrong with you?"

I asked him. I hadn't even thought of it myself, but the four words were so shaky I couldn't speak them in a coherent manner.

Mu Huainan forced out a very difficult smile. He raised the hand on his chest and extended it towards me, beckoning me over with a wave.

Not daring to think any further, I quickly leaned over, took his hand, and sat down beside him.

He could hear his livid lips moving, his voice hoarse, his breathing low.

"I'm fine."

"How can you be alright like this?!" I was worried, he must have been sick, but even when he was sick, he wouldn't tell me the truth!

I'm so angry, I'm going to die.

"Good boy." He touched my head.

"Help …" Help me to the study drawer. Bring me a white medicine bottle. "

His speech was very difficult and very tiring. However, he had to repeat this sentence several times before he could not help but close his eyes.

"Alright."

I got up and ran to the second floor.

By the time he reached the door of the study, his heart was already racing. He couldn't control himself.

Soon, I found the white bottle that Mu Huaian had ordered. I saw a bunch of foreign characters on it, but it wasn't because it was difficult to understand.

Although I'm very curious about the medicine, I can't delay any longer. I quickly went downstairs and poured a cup of hot water before sitting beside Mu Huainan.

"How many?"

"Two..."

I quickly poured out two pills, mixed them with hot water, and helped him take them.

"Do you need me to do something?"

He slowly opened his eyes, looked at me, and smiled gently.

"Stay with me."

I nodded and sat closer to him.

I looked back at Mu Huainan who was leaning on the sofa with his eyes closed. I didn't want to disturb him, so I took out my phone, opened the translation software, and wanted to translate those foreign words in real time.

As soon as the scan box opened, my wrist was grabbed.

Su Yun looked over, saw Mu Huainan frowning, and shook his head.

"Be good and don't worry about it."

He was like this again. Every time there was a problem, he would not let me care about it, and would always not tell me anything. He would hide it from me, leaving me to make wild guesses.

I was angry, and I was also angry in my heart, so I couldn't help but yell at him.

"Don't worry about it, don't worry about it. Other than telling me to ignore it, will you talk about anything else?!" Do you think you're a god or Great Sage Qi Tian!? You can handle everything by yourself, can't you? You can't even get sick, can you?! Heh, don't tell me that in your eyes, other than stupidity, stupidity and slowness, I have nothing else to say? That's right, you're so powerful and so lofty. You don't need a useless person like me to begin with. Fine, since you can carry it all by yourself, then carry it all! I don't care about you anymore, I won't think about you anymore! "

After saying that, I got up from the sofa, turned around and left.

However, his wrist was held by the cold hand behind him.

His strength was so small that I didn't even have to struggle. He grabbed it for a moment and then slid down on his own.

My heart tightened and I immediately turned around. Looking at his half-closed eyes, I couldn't help but blush.

He's already like this, why should I yell at him!

It was all my fault, but I heard him gasp at me.

"An An, sorry."

Finally, I couldn't help crying out loud.

Mu Huainan told me that he has a congenital heart disease. But it's rare, and it's probably because I've been so tired lately that I'm scared.

I don't believe it.

I opened the bottle. There was less than a quarter of it left, and the production date was less than four months old.

"You liar."

I stared at him with swollen eyes, but my guesses were not there to expose him.

Mu Huainan looked at me and laughed: "I'm a liar, it's not the first time you've heard about it."

I still want to cry.

I wanted to cry when I saw how weak he was.

"It's not like I'm going to die, so why are you crying so much?" He raised his hand and wiped my tears.

I took hold of his cold fingers, and at last, letting go of my childish pride, apologized to him.

"I'm sorry, Uncle Huainan."

I lowered my head, not daring to meet his wet eyes.

He lightly ridiculed from the top of his head.

"Silly girl, you didn't let me down." After taking the medicine, he seemed to have some strength left, but he still looked very tired as he spoke, "It's I who failed to fulfill the promise I made to you."

"No!" I shook my head. "I shouldn't have messed with you. I clearly knew that you were busy and had so many important things to take care of, but I still held on tightly to you. I was too selfish."

I think too much of myself.

Mu Huainan sighed softly.

"I'll just say you're stupid. What's more important in this world than you?"

Perhaps it was because he was sick, so when he said those words, it was with an uncontrollable softness.

I looked up and saw his deep eyes, his sword-like eyebrows slowly spreading out.

"Uncle Huainan." I lay on his shoulder, afraid to press my hand against his chest, afraid his heart would hurt.

I took his cold hand and placed it on my chest, warming it a little bit.

"Although I know that I'm useless, stupid and stupid, and only now do I realize that I'm not even of any use, but …" I lowered my head, my voice becoming softer and softer. "But at least I can stay with you, just like when I'm sick, when you stay with me."

Accompanying is actually much more important to people like us who have been alone for a long time than we thought.

Mu Huainan suddenly opened his arms and pulled me into his embrace.

Kiss me on the forehead.

Instead of dodging, I put my arm around his waist.

This time I lost again, I knew clearly in my heart, no matter how much preparation I made, no matter how much vigilance I raised, I could not dodge Mu Huainan's water.

But at least I understand now, the reason why I couldn't avoid it wasn't because of how fierce and powerful Mu Huainan was.

After all, I was in love with him.

Love, most of the time, is deadly and chaotic.
