” Ahem — ” Of course, Feng Wu wouldn’t tell him that she had simply been lost in his beauty.
“Look” referred to observing the patient’s complexion.
Hence, Feng Wu played along and nodded. “Your Royal Highness, you look pale. I would advise you to stay in bed for the next three days. Otherwise, you may suffer from after effects.”
Jun Linyuan didn’t reply, but only smiled a little. “What about ‘listen’?”
“Listen” meant listening to the patient’s voice.
Feng Wu said, “Your voice is hoarse and breathy. I would advise you to speak as little as possible.”
So, Feng Xun was right. She did care about him — thought Jun Linyuan.
Keeping his intense gaze on Feng Wu, Jun Linyuan offered her his right hand. “As you wish.”
Feng Wu darted a glance at Jun Linyuan in confusion. As she wished? What was that supposed to mean? How was feeling his pulse her wish? Since she had no idea what he meant, Feng Wu focused all her attention on the job at hand.
Jun Linyuan was indeed incredible. His spiritual essence was depleted, his dantian was as empty as a dry well, and his meridians had shriveled because of the lack of spiritual essence…
He had single-handedly raised a storm to put out a wildfire… who would have thought that Jun Linyuan, the guy who was said to be heartless and had little regard for human life, would do such a thing.
And he wasn’t even trying to prove anything.
As she went on feeling his pulse, the look on Feng Wu’s face changed.
He had exhausted his spiritual essence, his blood was curdling, and his meridians were all tangled up. It felt as if a storm had rampaged through his body, leaving such a mess behind.
She could only imagine how much pain he was in…
Feng Wu’s stomach lurched and she looked up at Jun Linyuan despite herself.
Any ordinary person would have been killed by such a severe internal injury. Even if they survived, they would have passed out from the pain.
However, Jun Linyuan didn’t even look wounded apart from his pale face. That was very like Jun Linyuan.
Feng Wu darted him another look. “Can’t you feel the pain?”
Jun Linyuan’s black eyes flickered all of a sudden. So, Feng Xun was right. The girl cared for him.
He stared at Feng Wu unblinkingly, his eyes very bright.
His gaze was so intense that Feng Wu could feel the heat on her skin. Before she knew it, her heart began to race…
“You…” Feng Wu flexed her fingers, then looked up and met Jun Linyuan’s gaze bravely. “You need to stay in bed for three days. I’ll write you a prescription now. All you need to do is get all the ingredients. You’re not leaving that bed for the next three days.”
Feng Wu then turned to write at the desk.
Tapping his fingers on the bed, Jun Linyuan was lost in thought. When he turned to look again, he saw Feng Wu’s profile.
She was sitting at the desk with her head lowered. He could see her smooth forehead and the peach fuzz on her temples, which looked adorable. Her lowered gaze reminded him of an ethereal pond that didn’t belong to this world. The straight bridge and delicate tip of her nose was fairer than snow and more translucent than jade.
The arch of her neck was more beautiful than all the views in the world put together… Jun Linyuan had never been someone who was obsessed with beauty, for no one could match his own.
However, looking at this girl with her bright eyes, smooth cheeks, and glowing complexion, Jun Linyuan felt something crack in his heart.
Thump, thump, thump.
It was as if a ten-thousand-year-old glacier had begun to crack!
