The cave was dripping with water time and time again. It was abnormally damp and obviously didn't suit the injured Wu Chuan very well. Wei Yi supported her and immediately took off his gorgeous robe and placed it on the ground. Only then did he place Wu Chuan on the ground and let her rest while leaning against the wall.

Wei Yi looked outside and pondered for a moment. He decided that he might as well pluck some dry grass from the outside and place it on the ground.

As he thought of this, Wei Yi swiftly got up. Wangchuan, who was behind him, saw his movements and endured the pain as he struggled to get up.

This scene just happened to be seen by Wei Yi as he turned his head around. He tightly knitted his brows, his eyes filled with worry as he berated, "Don't move recklessly."

As Wei Yi spoke, he walked towards Wangchuan. His concerned gaze carried a hint of sternness. "I already told you not to move about carelessly, why didn't you listen?"

Wangchuan saw Wei Yi lecturing him like a child, and laughed helplessly. "Thousand years old. This sort of injury isn't a big deal." After saying that, he struggled to get up.

However, he was stopped by Wei Yi, whose long and narrow eyes revealed pain. He bent down and said in a low voice, "You don't have to be so strong in front of me." After that, Wei Yi carried Forgetfulness in his arms and rested his head on Forgetfulness's shoulder. With a gentle and soft voice, he whispered, "I will feel heartache."

Wangchuan felt the warmth within Wei Yi's embrace, and his mouth gaped open when he heard Wei Yi's words, but in the end, he didn't say anything. It was as if he had never thought that someone would say such things to him. For a moment, he could not help but feel a little drowsy.

Only this kind of gentleness would make Wu Chuan desperately want to absorb it.

In all these years, no one had ever treated him in such a manner. Even though he didn't know what Wei Yi actually meant, his opinion of him had already changed.

Wei Yi saw that Wu Chuan didn't say anything. "Wu Chuan, can you not be so strong in the future? Even if you break your leg, you still won't make a sound. Who taught you to …"

As early as after Wangchuan healed his bones, he swore in his heart that he would take good care of her and not let her get hurt.

Without waiting for a reply, Wei Yi then stood up and went outside to cut some hay. As he left the cave, he glanced back at him and gave a shallow smile as he said, "I, the Governor, have never spouted nonsense. In the future, you don't have to be so tough anymore. From today onwards, I will not let you receive the slightest bit of harm."

Wangchuan looked at Wei Yi's slightly flustered and anxious footsteps and couldn't help but laugh. It had been a long time since he had been taken care of like this.

Previously, when Gu Zheng had rescued her from the wolves, she had been injured from all over, so he had taken care of her. Previously, when Gu Zheng had been injured from all over, he had taken care of himself in this way.

As for Wei Yi, during this period of time, it could be seen that he was putting himself at the top of his heart to cherish it.

Although he didn't know the identity of this person.

"..."

By the time Wei Yi returned, Wu Chuan had already fallen asleep, leaning against a rock. Carrying a pile of hay in his arms, he saw that Wenchuan was already asleep with a frown on her face.

The corner of Wei Yi's mouth curled into a smile as he leaned against Wangchuan's side. He quietly looked at his sleeping visage and smoothed his wrinkled eyebrows. Then with a gentle motion, he embraced Wangchuan into his embrace.

In the meantime, because of the cold wind at night, Wangchuan's body was uncontrollably trembling. Wei Yi was jolted awake by Wangchuan's subtle movements and hurriedly lowered his head to look at his condition. He saw Wangchuan leaning against his chest with a pained expression.

Wei Yi's eyes were filled with nervousness as he reached out his hand to stroke Wu Chuan's forehead.

As for Wu Chuan, he kept mumbling the word 'cold' nonstop. His forehead was burning hot and his face was slightly red.

Wei Yi sat beside Wu Chuan, completely at a loss of what to do. The environment was currently not good, and if they were to encounter Wu Chuan's sudden fever at night, the situation between the two of them could be said to be extremely dire.

At this moment, Wu Chuan opened her blurry eyes, and the discomfort she felt made her feel extremely uncomfortable.

However, his mind was in a mess, like a small boat drifting in the sea.

While she was still in a hazy state, she could only feel Wei Yi's embrace growing tighter and tighter, as though he was treating her like a precious treasure.

All of a sudden, his mind seemed to have cleared up a bit as he mocked himself in his heart. How could he have such unrealistic thoughts?

Then, her body's discomfort prevented her from thinking any further and she fell into a deep sleep.

Wei Yi, on the other hand, was incomparably flustered as he fell into a deep slumber in his embrace, still feeling hot. Wei Yi, who had never served anyone since he was young, could only hug him even tighter, allowing his entire body to lean against his chest to prevent the cold night wind from freezing him.

However, the Wangchuan in his embrace grew hotter and hotter. Wei Yi hurriedly tore off a piece of clothes that could still be considered clean before walking over to the lake shore and wetting it on her head.

Wei Yi pulled up the legs of her pants, only to realize that this was not the first time her legs had been broken.

Wei Yi clenched his fingers tightly. Due to his exertion, his joints had turned slightly white.

While he was hugging Wenchuan, he did not care if Wenchuan could answer him now. He kept on talking to Wenchuan.

"I originally thought that I wouldn't be able to find you in this life, but now you've appeared by my side. Exactly what happened to you that made you lose all your memories and can't remember anything? Indeed, you should also forget that childish vow, I, will never let those people off." As he spoke up to this point, an unprecedented cold light flashed within Wei Yi's eyes. This was the first time in so many years that someone like him, who had never been familiar with the affairs of the world, had ever had the intention to kill.

Everyone thought that he was a demon that killed people and drank their blood, but he only did what he had to do.

The softest part of his heart had always been his forgetfulness. Otherwise, his clothes wouldn't have bloomed like a flower on her back.

Wei Yi tightly held onto Wu Chuan.

Back then, they seemed to be hugging each other to keep each other warm.

However, everything started to crumble after that disaster …

Wei Yi's hand gently caressed Wu Chuan's hair.

To think that the girl he had placed at the tip of his heart would be treated like that by Gu Zheng. He really should settle the score with her.

Perhaps it was because Wei Yi had accompanied him throughout the entire night, and had protected him extremely well. In the morning, Wu Chuan felt that the heat in his body had already subsided by quite a bit.

All night long, Wangchuan could vaguely hear Wei Yi's voice in her ear. If it were before, Wangchuan would never have believed that Wei Yi would do such a thing.

It was as if something had quietly sprouted in his heart, and in the blink of an eye, it had grown.

Wu Chuan rose to his feet and watched as Wei Yi brought in a handful of medicinal herbs, carrying the morning mist with him as he walked in.

Their gazes intersected in the air, and that pair of beautiful, almond-shaped eyes of Wu Chuan smiled brilliantly at Wei Yi.

Wei Yi was stunned for a moment before hurriedly pulling Wangchuan down as he saw him stand up. His tone was exceptionally urgent. "You're not fully recovered yet. Quickly, sit down."

After pulling Wenchuan along and sitting on the dry grass, Wei Yi picked up the medicinal herb in his hand and carefully applied it onto Wenchuan.
