117 Chapter 118 “Nursing Her“
"Okay then...tomorrow you make the medicine and after Li Shi Ying fever cooled down, let’s start the journey right away. We can’t delay this matter any longer right?" Long Ao Zhen stood up from his chair as he cast a gentle gaze to Li Shi Ying.
Li Shi Ying body had stop shivering and she didn’t mumble in pain anymore because the medicine Jiu Wei made before had finally took effect. It was just that the fever still hadn’t cooled down.
Long Ao Zhen sighed in relief after he changed the compress for the n-th time. He had been doing that while discussing things with Jiu Wei from the start.
Long Ao Zhen and Jiu Wei discussion went until 7 p.m. It was already time to have dinner but Jiu Wei was too tired to cook so he went to buy food outside while leaving Long Ao Zhen behind to take care of Shi Ying.
Jiu Wei was really glad that Long Ao Zhen didn’t punch him or roast him to death. He then went to a nearby restaurant with a smile on his face.
But....Jiu Wei was wrong. Long Ao Zhen didn’t punch or kill Jiu Wei simply because he still need him to make the ’Strengthening Medicine’ for Li Shi Ying.
Long Ao Zhen was never a kind man so he will take his anger slowly by torturing Jiu Wei with 1001 creative ways to torture someone to death.
Jiu Wei who was buying a food, suddenly shivered out of nowhere and a bad feeling creeped in to his heart. Poor Jiu Wei he didn’t know what kind of bleak future he will face from now on...
Back in the inn.
Long Ao Zhen drank a mouthful of water before sat back to the chair beside Li Shi Ying bed. He look at his ’little sister’ pale face and couldn’t help to stare any longer.
His ’little sister’ cheerful and rosy face...in just less than a day, turned into as pale as a ghost.
Long Ao Zhen once again blame himself for not noticing his ’little sister’ pain. When Li Shi Ying said she wanted to rest because she felt unwell, he shouldn’t go to the auction house right?
He should just ask his guard to go to the auction while he stay here with ’his little sister’...
Long Ao Zhen eyes redden a bit thinking about Li Shi Ying future. From now on she would suffer a lot. He...as her ’husband’ and her ’brother’....really is useless. He couldn’t do anything to help her.
Just when Long Ao Zhen nearly fell into another negative emotion, Li Shi Ying woke up and slowly opened her eyes.
"B-brother?" her voice was hoarse and weak yet still pleasant to the ear. Li Shi Ying turned her head to the left while coughing a few times.
"Brother..." Li Shi Ying mind was still muddled with her fever so she really dropped down all her guard in front of the male lead. She turned into a spoiled baby whenever she got sick.
Usually she had to kept up a ’leader’ attitude and tough personality in front of others especially her friends. But deep down inside, because she had a tragic childhood, she was still a little bit childish.
When Li Shi Ying transmigrate, she looks fine and calm but deep inside her heart, she was afraid. She had a weak body compared to her original healthy body. She didn’t know anyone in this new world and had to constanly be aware of danger.
Now...she was sick, all the stress pilled up in her mind slowly being cleaned with opening up her real character. She always be the one protecting others, doing something for others, now she simply want to be in ’brother’ embrace.
Li Shi Ying gripped Long Ao Zhen hand gently and tugged it a few times. "Brother...brother....don’t leave okay?"
Long Ao Zhen gloomy feeling instantly vanished replaced by a warm and fuzzy feeling. "Oww....little sister is acting spoiled! Doesn’t this mean she has accept him completely?" Long Ao Zhen thought happily.
He knew that Li Shi Ying had create a little space between them ever since he ’adopt’ her to be his little sister. Long Ao Zhen was aware that it might be uncomfortable for Li Shi Ying to suddenly become a stranger’s little sister.
Because of that, Long Ao Zhen often tried hard to close their distance by treating her with care and spoil her endlessly. Now Li Shi Ying was sick, she opened her heart and dropped her wary mind of being too close with male lead, Long Ao Zhen felt like he was in heaven.
"Yes, brother won’t leave" Long Ao Zhen voice was soft and gentle like a refreshing breeze in the spring. His voice could melt even the coldest woman in the entire world.
Long Ao Zhen smile like a gentle ’big brother’ and gripped Li Shi Ying small hand with his right hand while stroking Li Shi Ying hair with his other hand.
Li Shi Ying was relieved with Long Ao Zhen word and slowly fell asleep again.
