In any case, you shall have my unconditional obedience.

As long as you’re willing, I shall fear no hardships, for I will go through fire and water.

Had it been any other time, Chu Jinnian wouldn’t have been this blatant in asking about Zhuang Qingning’s feelings for him. However, his recent brush with death made him realize that if you don’t express certain things, you may never have the chance to do so.

Some feelings, if not expressed, may also never find the right time or place later on.

Chu Jinnian wore a smile on his lips, his eyes filled with tenderness as he reached out to Zhuang Qingning.

Zhuang Qingning also smiled softly, leaned forward a bit, and placed her hand in Jinnian’s palm.

Feeling the soft, white, delicate hand of Zhuang Qingning in his, Chu Jinnian laughed and said, “Fortunately, you arrived just in time; otherwise, I might never have seen you again.”

“Of course, I had to be on time; otheriwse, who would clean my courtyard?” Zhuang Qingning playfully retorted. “I had to save the man who can do such a job.”

“So, you just need me to work for you?” Chu Jinnian laughed.

“That’s not entirely true…” Zhuang Qingning tilted her head.

The main thing was that she remembered him.

Jinnian felt rather pleased with himself upon this realization.

“I also missed your face. It’s been a while since I’ve seen it. Without your exquisite beauty to feast my eyes on, it always felt like something was missing,” Zhuang Qingning playfully complimented.

So, she was indeed attracted to his appearance, and there was no other reason at all?

Chu Jinnian felt a bit disappointed, but realized that this face belonged to him and no one else, so it was only his face that Zhuang Qingning admired…

Rounding off, it can be said that she liked him as a whole.

It was enough!

“Then from now on, I’ll let you feast your eyes on me, so you can get your fill,” Chu Jinnian laughed, “By the way, how did you suddenly end up here?”

The distance between here and Zhuang Qingning’s place was several hundred miles. Even if they had rushed night and day, it would have taken at least a day and a night. She arrived so soon that nobody would have had time to send her a message.

“I had a dream last night that you were hurt, so I rushed over with Su Mu and her sisters,” Zhuang Qingning casually lied.

“I see,” Chu Jinnian nodded thoughtfully.

In his previous life, Chu Yunzhao had been hit by a poisoned arrow and was saved by a miraculous doctor passing by this place.

And now, although he managed to save Chu Yunzhao this time, he ended up being poisoned instead. It was also in this place that he was saved by Zhuang Qingning.

The mysterious workings of fate are indeed very miraculous.

But on the other hand, it seemed that he and Zhuang Qingning were destined for each other.

Chu Jinnian held Zhuang Qingning’s hand and nuzzled his cheek against it.

Because he had been unconscious for two days, Chu Jinnian now had scruffy stubble on his face, which tickled Zhuang Qingning’s hand, causing her to giggle.

Seeing this, Chu Jinnian, being the mischief maker he was, repeatedly rubbed Zhuang Qingning’s hand against his stubble, leaving her lying and laughing on the soft couch.

Jing Zhao, standing outside the room, heard the laughter, and assumed that Chu Jinnian and Zhuang Qingning must have woken up. He was about to knock on the door.

But considering he might interrupt an intimate moment, he drew back his hand.

Even after a few attempts, Jing Zhao still couldn’t bring himself to knock on the door.

It was only when Chu Jinnian called out from inside that Jing Zhao entered to help him change clothes and eat some food.

After lunch, Chu Jinnian took some antidote pills, which significantly improved his condition. He then sent for Chu Yunzhao and had a brief conversation with him.

After a short rest, he had some light food and a bowl of chicken rice porridge for dinner.

When darkness fell, it was time for his infusion again.

Zhuang Qingning dismissed everyone, and as she looked at the now awake Chu Jinnian, she wondered how to explain to him the origins of the medicine bottle and infusion tube.

But before she could speak, Chu Jinnian had already lifted his arm and placed his hand on hers.

“What’s wrong?” Zhuang Qingning thought he was uncomfortable.

“Aren’t you going to give me an injection?” Chu Jinnian asked with a smile.

“How do you know I’m going to give you an injection?” Zhuang Qingning was surprised.

She was certain that he was unconscious last night, so he couldn’t possibly know about the injections she had given him.

“When I woke up, I saw a bruised needle mark on the back of my hand, which looked fresh. Considering it must have been left by you when you were treating me, I guessed you were planning to give me injections to detoxify me,” Chu Jinnian explained with a laugh. “Do you want me to offer the other hand, or should you stick to this one?”

“I need to inject this for two more days, so let’s switch hands.” To this, Zhuang Qingning pulled his other hand basically over, and the veins were quite prominent, which made the injection quite easy.

Zhuang Qingning brought over the prepared wooden box, took out the infusion tube, needle, and medicine bottle, and deftly injected the needle into Chu Jinnian’s vein, adjusting the speed of the drip.

Seeing that Chu Jinnian had no intention of questioning the origin of these unfamiliar objects to this world, Zhuang Qingning took the initiative to explain, “All of these were obtained to detoxify you. Although they might seem strange, they work extremely well.”

“You can rest assured.”

“Even if you were injecting poison into me right now, I would gladly accept it,” Chu Jinnian laughed.

“Stop your nonsense,” Zhuang Qingning chided playfully, pulling the quilt up for Chu Jinnian. “The infusion will take a while; you should sleep for a bit.”

Chu Jinnian still had a good amount of poison left in his body. Being awake for too long today, he was visibly exhausted.

“If I sleep now, won’t you have to stay up all night again?” Chu Jinnian asked. “Why don’t you sleep first, and when I really can’t hold up any longer, I’ll wake you up.”

“Then let’s both sleep for a while.” Zhuang Qingning lay down on the soft couch by the bed and pulled up the quilt. “I’ll wake up in about an hour.”

As for who would watch the infusion during her sleep…

She would hand that task to a certain five.

[… This doesn’t seem fair.]

Especially having to take care of the people who are making her eat dog food while being fed dog food. What’s the difference between this and a parent asking a child to bring a hanger before spanking him?

[Besides, even systems need rest…]

Stop complaining. If you say more, from now on, I won’t strive for progress and will only focus on sweet romance. This means you’ll have to eat dog food every day, and you’ll miss out on your grand life.

[… A host chosen by oneself must indeed be pampered, even if it means kneeling…]

Seeing a certain five reluctantly agree to this, Zhuang Qingning peacefully held Chu Jinnian’s hand and fell asleep.
