There was no fever even.

But it was too late to leave.

Eldest Princess Jing An clearly wanted to give her time to interact with Xie Xingyun. She did not know why she suddenly decided to make her Xie Xingyun’s wife. In the morning, in the carriage, she even wanted to put on the bracelet, passed to her by the late Empress, for her.

It took Bai Xianyu a lot of effort to stop her.

At this moment, she and Xie Xingyun were under the same roof again. Xie Xingyun had obviously drunk alcohol last night and was not completely awake yet. Seeing that she was silent, his innocent eyes were a little aggrieved.

They were less harsh and cold.

“I didn’t know that she’ll go to you,” he said defensively.

Bai Xianyu did not look at him. “Oh.”

She was holding clean gauze and medicinal wine in her hand. She took his large hand and unwrapped the original gauze bit by bit. The wound inside was about to be exposed, but a large palm covered her eyes.

Xie Xingyun said, “Don’t look, I’ll do it myself.”

Bai Xianyu retreated a little and paused for two seconds before saying calmly, “Are you afraid that my heart will ache if 1 see it?”

Xie Xingyun’s body stiffened slightly, and the smile in his eyes dimmed.

“…No.”

‘I’m, I’m afraid that it’ll scare you.’

She could not help but think of what she had said at the Buddha Temple that day when her memories were in a mess.

[Do you feel sorry for me?]

[If I don’t feel sorry for you, who should I feel sorry for?]

That girl, in the past, who would cry whenever she saw him injured, seemed far away from him.

Bai Xianyu moved his hand away and changed his dressing without being distracted. “Although Ji Shuang hurt you that day, the Eldest Princess was very protective of her. I’m also a very protective person. It was clearly you who suddenly appeared when you were drunk and hugged me tightly. Ji Shuang only wanted you to let go, so she accidentally hurt you.”

She said a lot.

Xie Xingyun’s heart sank deeper and deeper until it fell into the abyss.

He lowered his eyes and hummed. “It’s me… who reaped what I sowed.

His throat was a little dry, as if the residual alcohol had stimulated his throat.

When Bai Xianyu heard his self-deprecating tone, a feeling of discomfort suddenly arose in his heart.

She frowned slightly and changed the topic. “Why do you like to drink?”

Xie Xingyun leaned against the head of the bed and lowered his handsome eyebrows. “Isn’t it good to drink?”

“Why are you still drinking in your current condition?” Bai Xianyu looked at the wound on his mouth and pursed her lips. “How much do you remember about that night?”

A deep meaning flashed across Xie Xingyun’s eyes. “That night?”

Bai Xianyu dressed the wound for him and tied a beautiful knot. He said casually, “Yes, that night when your fever subsided.”

“You were still in my room that night?” Xie Xingyun slowly sat up straight and stared at her with disbelief.

Bai Xianyu was grabbed by the shoulder and pinned toward him. She said inexplicably, “Yes.”

Xie Xingyun’s gaze became even more complex. He used his finger to lightly scrape the wound above his lips and said seriously, “So, you bit here?”

Bai Xianyu thought that he was going to blame her, so she pointed to her lips and said, “You bit me too, but you kept…”

He kept biting and refused to let go of her.

How could she say that?

Just when she was finding it difficult to speak, Xie Xingyun suddenly hugged her and whispered into her ear, “I’m sorry.”

Bai Xianyu grabbed the thin inner shirt on his back and tried to pull him away. “Alright, 1 won’t argue with you on account that you’re drunk.”

Just take it as… reversing the misunderstanding that happened on the eaves that day.

“Tomorrow, I will go to your residence to propose marriage.”

Bai Xianyu,”?”

Xie Xingyun held her face and quickly kissed her nose under her shocked gaze. “I’ll prepare the gifts now.”

As he said this, he was about to get off the bed when the wound on his hand opened again, and the blood oozed out.

However, Xie Xingyun did not notice it at all. He stared into her eyes and said slowly and seriously, “Little Yu, 1 will definitely not let you down in this life.”

Bai Xianyu hurriedly wanted to stop him, but his eyes widened. “What are you doing?!”

Why was he going to propose marriage?!

Xie Xingyun was unmoved. “Since we’ve been intimate, it’s only right to propose marriage.”

Bai Xianyu was first shocked, then her face turned red. “What are you talking about? The two of us did not do that.”

Xie Xingyun suddenly paused, his handsome face revealing some doubts. “I didn’t take you?”

These straightforward words made Bai Xianyu’s face turn even redder. “What nonsense are you talking about? We only kissed.”

Why would he think of that!

Xie Xingyun sized her up with a deep gaze. After a while, he slowly sat down.”… Yes.”

What was with this disappointed expression?

The corners of Bai Xianyu’s mouth twitched for a moment.

Xie Xingyun’s gaze swept across the golden incense burner at the side and he paused for a moment. “I misunderstood.”

That day, after she left after feeding him the medicine, he ordered Nanke while drinking.

The memories that followed were chaotic.

One moment, she was resisting, the next moment, she was pushing him with a red face, and the next moment, she was in a daze and crying as she looked at his beautiful face.

It was a charming dream.

After he woke up, he only treated it as a dream.

Hence, when she said that she was in his room that night, he thought that the dream that day was not because of Nanke.

It was half true and half false.

If it was true, she would definitely not come to see him now.

Bai Xianyu did not know why he misunderstood that the two of them had done that, so she continued, “Drinking will ruin things. What happened that night is the best evidence. You should drink less wine in the future. If you drink, even if the Eldest Princess gets someone to drag me here, I won’t enter your room.”

She was already lucky enough to escape from his shackles last time. She really was not confident that she could do it again.

“Yeah.”

Bai Xianyu brought him medicine. “You’re awake now. You don’t need me to feed you medicine, right?”

Xie Xingyun, “My hand hurts.”

Bai Xianyu was silent for a moment before picking up a spoon to feed him.. “By the way, what’s Nanke?”
