Chapter 170: Love Poison Attack
Hearing Yan Yu's excited question, Jiang Li's expression froze, and then she realized what she had just agreed to.
Maybe she can't do it...
But…she couldn't tell them yet.
"Really? When we get back to the palace, just tell me if you want to eat..."
"That's great! Thank you, Princess!"
Seeing Yan Yu and Qi Yu eating more happily, Jiang Li also curled her lips, and then when she glanced at the man beside her, her heart couldn't help but feel empty for a moment.
Li Jinyuan's eyes were gentle, and his handsome face was so close that her breath was held for a moment.
"Lili, I want to eat too..."
The magnetic and hoarse voice touched the eardrum, and the pleasant brain nerves trembled.
Jiang Li's ears turned red, and her watery almond eyes didn't dare to look at him.
"I'll definitely give you something to eat if I make it..."
The girl's voice was incredibly soft and gentle. Li Jinyuan's gaze gradually became hot, and an endless smile spread in his eyes, as if a pearl was haloed and the light was radiant like glass.
Seeing the girl's face flushed like a small glutinous rice dumpling, Li Jinyuan's heart softened. If there weren't so many people here, he would have hugged the little girl in his arms.
The atmosphere between the two gradually became ambiguous and heated. Everyone's eyes consciously looked away, chatting and chatting, but they didn't dare to disturb the whispers between the young couple...
Only Chu Changxun, who was sitting opposite the two of them, kept tightening his grip on the chopsticks and couldn't swallow the chicken in his mouth.
He was like a self-torturer, watching the girl leaning shyly against his chest, her face flushed, a look he had never seen before...
He moved his lips, suppressed the ups and downs in his heart, and curled his lips with a hint of bitterness.
How could Yan Guihong not know his little thoughts? A hint of helplessness flashed across the old man's turbid eyes, and then he sighed in his heart.
In fact, he quite liked Chu Changxun. Whether he was helping him dry and collect medicine or rescuing soldiers in the Beichen military camp, he didn't have the arrogance that was inherent in the Dongli royal family. He was a rare good boy...
But young people, after all, can't escape the word love...
"Come, eat chicken legs."
Yan Guihong tore off the leg of another chicken and put it into Chu Changxun's bowl with heartache.
The latter finally came to his senses and looked at Yan Guihong with gratitude, but his red eyes could not hide the loss in his eyes.
……
After dinner, Qi Yu and Yan Yu went to the lake with their tableware.
Li Jinyuan was forced by Jiang Li into the medicinal bath tub and had to stay there for half an hour because it would help his body recover.
The man didn't want to let the girl go easily, but Jiang Li had experienced being tormented by him during the previous medicinal baths, so this time she would not agree with him no matter what he said.
"Be good and make it yourself."
"Pear..."
Li Jinyuan reluctantly stretched his hand out of the bathtub, and his wet fingertips soaked Jiang Li's sleeves.
Jiang Li hardened her heart and looked back at him, but when she met his aggrieved gaze, she softened for a moment.
Damn, no wonder they say women can’t escape contrast in their lives…
Such a stern face with a pitiful expression, like a cool kitten suddenly coming to you for a hug, who can resist it...
But... Jiang Li still cared more about her kidneys.
"Be good and make it yourself."
After she finished speaking, Jiang Li "heartlessly" pushed his hand away and walked towards the door without any reluctance.
"I'll call you when the time comes. Don't come out before the time comes!"
Thinking that he might waste such a bucket of medicine, Jiang Li turned around and warned him viciously.
Soon, the little pink figure disappeared from Li Jinyuan's sight.
The man leaned back into the bathtub helplessly, but his brows were still furrowed with depression.
He seemed to have a condition that made him panic whenever he was separated from Lili...
This short half hour seemed longer than half a year to him. He wanted to hold Lili...
……
Yan Guihong's small pharmacy,
After Jiang Li came out from Li Jinyuan's place, she came here without delay.
Because after dinner, the master secretly told her that he would take her pulse that night, worried that the mother Gu would cause any adverse reactions in her body.
Jiang Li still takes good care of her body, so she didn't refuse.
"master?"
"princess……"
Hearing the unexpectedly clear male voice, Jiang Li raised her eyebrows, then greeted Chu Changxun with a smile.
"Prince Chu, you're here too! Where's the Master..."
The man stopped what he was doing, patted the medicine residue on his hands, and then walked towards Jiang Li.
"Divine Doctor Yan is going to make some medicine to replenish your Qi and blood. He should be here soon."
The girl nodded and sat on the chair that Chu Changxun brought for her.
"It's so late, isn't Prince Chu going to rest yet?"
Jiang Li was a little curious. Looking at the man sitting opposite him and drinking tea elegantly, she felt that his day was really tiring.
Logically, he could have returned with the army and rested in the Prince's Mansion long ago, but he chose to stay. Not only did he help Jiang Li look after Li Jinyuan, he also often helped Yan Guihong.
Sometimes Jiang Li felt that she was no match for him. It was obvious that the people who needed care were her closest relatives, but Chu Changxun often cared more about them than she did.
"It's still early. There's still time to help Divine Doctor Yan sort out these herbs and rest."
"All right……"
Jiang Li took a sip of tea and lowered her head slightly.
For some reason, she and Chu Changxun could be considered friends, but whenever they were alone together, there was always an indescribable awkward atmosphere...
"By the way, Princess, do you feel any unusual movement of the Gu worm in your body?"
The man's expression darkened, and his thoughts were suddenly pulled back to the few days before Li Jinyuan woke up.
That was the first outbreak of the love poison in Jiang Li's body...
The girl's painful moans were endless, the veins on her pale cheeks were exposed, and her whole body was twitching and shaking uncontrollably.
The moment Chu Changxuan saw it, he felt like his heart was about to stop beating. He hurried over to restrain her, fearing that she would not be able to bear it and do something to hurt herself.
The girl's soft lower lip had been bitten until it bled. She had completely lost all feeling and could not hear what he and Yan Guihong were saying.
In the end, there was no other way, so Chu Changxun had to pry open her mouth, and Yan Guihong fed her a special pill, which made her feel a little better, but not completely comfortable.
That was just the first onset of the love poison. As time goes by, the pain will only get worse...
He didn't dare to think about whether Jiang Li could survive the second attack of the love poison, so she had to leave Li Jinyuan before the second attack...
"Except for the last time when the love poison attacked me, I haven't felt anything recently."
Jiang Li's tone was calm, but Chu Changxun did not dare to slack off.
"That's good, but to be on the safe side, let's have Divine Doctor Yan take your pulse."
"it is good."
