Chapter 124 The Chime
Liu Ruxuan woke up three days later. Although she was covered with a blanket, she still felt a little cold. She slowly got up and was shocked to find that everything around her was red—the bed curtains, the blankets, the furniture… Was this the start of a wedding?
The door was pushed open, and a young girl came in, carrying a plate of snacks. Seeing that Liu Ruxuan was awake, she smiled and said, "Miss Liu, you're awake."
"Who are you? Where am I?" Liu Ruxuan threw back the covers and got out of bed.
"My name is Qing. Miss Liu is in Master Yi's room. You've been unconscious for three days now." Qing said, placing the snacks on the table and hurriedly helping Liu Ruxuan, afraid that she might accidentally fall.
Before Liu Ruxuan could speak, Qing said again, "Miss Liu, are you hungry? Have some snacks first. I'll go get you some food."
Having not eaten a single grain of rice for three days, she was indeed starving. Liu Ruxuan said very politely, "Then I'll have to trouble you, Miss Qing."
After helping Liu Ruxuan sit down, Qing withdrew. Liu Ruxuan looked at the plate of pastries, smelled them and found nothing wrong, then began to eat them heartily.
Liu Ruxuan knew she couldn't eat too much at once, so she stopped after eating two pieces. She wondered what Qing would bring. As she was thinking, Liu Ruxuan supported herself on the table with both hands, her soul entered the space, drank some spiritual spring water, played with the little Chongming bird and the white tiger for a while, and then came out.
Just then, Qing returned, carrying a bowl of porridge and two dishes.
Qing placed the food on the table: "Miss Liu, please eat."
Liu Ruxuan looked at the dishes; they were just ordinary home-cooked meals. But the porridge was different. It was red, with extremely thin red threads inside, barely thicker than a hair. She didn't know what it was.
"What kind of porridge is this?" Liu Ruxuan stirred it with a spoon.
"Miss Liu, this is made from the petals of the Fire Heart Seven-Heart Lotus that Master Yi brought back from Beichuan. It has an excellent effect on dispelling cold," Qing replied truthfully.
Liu Ruxuan nodded, thinking that Yi Yan's character was not bad! She took a bite of the porridge and felt a warmth as soon as it went down her throat: "Qing, your technique is also good. You can actually make the flower petals so fine."
"Miss Liu, you misunderstand. This was not done by Qing, but by Master Yi himself." Qing dared not take credit for it.
Liu Ruxuan almost choked upon hearing this. She swallowed the porridge and said to Qing, "Qing, are your teachers really that good-natured?"
“Miss Liu, I have followed Master Yi for decades, and I have never seen Master Yi care about anyone like this before.” There was a hint of ‘I know everything’ in Qin’s smile.
Liu Ruxuan was speechless. The more she talked, the more chaotic things became, so she simply stopped talking and quietly ate her porridge.
Before long, the bowl of porridge was finished, and Liu Ruxuan felt warm all over, with an indescribable sense of comfort.
After tidying up the dishes, Qing prepared to take the food away: "Miss Liu, please get some rest. Master Yi will be here later."
"Oh, okay." Liu Ruxuan nodded amicably, and left with the empty bowl, making sure to close the door behind her.
Liu Ruxuan looked around, feeling as if she were waiting for her husband in their bridal chamber... and that person was Yi Yan...
Just then, Yi Yan pushed open the door and entered. Dressed in red, he looked like a groom. Although his appearance wasn't as striking as Dugu Juechen's, he was still an exceptionally handsome man, leaving Liu Ruxuan completely stunned…
At this point, wouldn't it be more appropriate to call him "husband" to fit the situation?
"Miss Liu, I'm getting shy looking at me like that," Yi Yan teased.
……
"Xiang... ah, pui... Yi, Master, thank you for saving my life!" Liu Ruxuan walked up to Yi Yan and said with her hands clasped.
