Gu Changling retracted his hand and said casually: "I'm fine. Even if you don't sleep all night, it's nothing. If you're not feeling well, we won't leave today and will rest for another day."

With that said, he went to tell Thummim not to prepare anymore.

Yun Wei hurriedly grabbed him and said, "No, I'm ready and can go."

She didn't want to delay her trip because of herself.

It can be seen that he wanted to arrive as soon as possible, and the carriage almost never stopped except for necessary conveniences along the way.

Gu Changling looked at her face and said, "Don't be brave. If you catch a fever again halfway, you will be in more trouble than now."

Yun Wei shook her head, "I'm not trying to be brave. I really feel better."

After hesitating for a moment, Gu Changling put his cloak on her body, "Let's go then."

"Oh……"

When Yunwei left, she deliberately took the bamboo tube on the table with her because she found cold milk tea in it in the morning.

In addition, I packed some snacks from the inn to use as food for the road.

The waiter was very talkative and chatted while helping her pack.

Seeing a bamboo tube in her hand, the waiter smiled and said, "So the weird tea that young master made last night was for you?"

Yun Wei was surprised: "Didn't... the cook cook it?"

The waiter yelled, "It was the end of the country at that time, and there were no cooks anywhere. This young master cooked the food with his own hands. There happened to be a cow in our backyard that gave birth to a calf, and the young master milked the milk himself."

The waiter clucked and said that it was strange that it was the first time he saw milk and tea boiled together.

Yunwei turned her head and looked at someone at the door.

He stood by the door waiting for him, not knowing what he was looking at. His profile was blurred by a ray of morning light.

Looking back, she clutched the milk tea in her hand and felt at a loss for a moment.

Gu Changling...why did he take such good care of her?

The waiter was still chattering, and then asked where they were going.

Yunwei mentioned Lin'an casually, and the waiter suddenly became serious, "Then you should be careful. I heard that there is a bandit den in Feicui Mountain on the way to Lin'an, which specializes in robbing passers-by. The government doesn't care much about it. If you are not in a hurry, Better to take a detour."

The bandit den in Emerald Mountain?

That was not the place in the original story where Gu Changling was sent to suppress bandits after being promoted and met Cinnabar Moles.

I didn’t expect to pass by there when I go to Lin’an.

Yunwei thanked her, gave the waiter a reward, returned to the carriage, and said, "Will we pass by Emerald Mountain today?"

Gu Changling was still sitting on the small stool, reading a book again, and hummed casually.

Yun Wei said worriedly: "I heard from the waiter that there is a bandit's den over there. How about we take a detour?"

"Don't worry, I've already told Thummim."

Otherwise, he wouldn't be in such a hurry to set off in the morning.

Originally, I wanted her to rest all morning and set off in the afternoon.

But think about it, if we bypass Emerald Mountain and don’t start early, we won’t be able to reach the next inn before dark.

Yun Wei said oh, feeling that her question was unnecessary.

With Gu Changling's carefulness, it was impossible to pass by Emerald Mountain rashly.

She put the snacks away, opened the bamboo tube cover, and took a sip of milk tea.

Gu Changling said: "It's better to drink less if it's cold."

Yun Wei was startled, and the thought she had just suppressed came up again.

He took care of her all night, made milk tea for her, and now he's telling her...

It was so abnormal that it made her wonder, could it be something like the last meal before the guillotine?

Her back trembled, and she couldn't help but ask tentatively: "Why...why are you so nice to me all of a sudden?"

Gu Changling put down the book and looked at her, his expression was normal and natural, "You are my wife, shouldn't I take care of you?"

Yunwei: "..."

How to answer the call?

In name, it was, but both of them knew it tacitly. What did he mean by that at this moment?

She deliberately whispered: "We are only in name only, and we divorced at the end of the year."

What do you mean when you say you want to take care of me now?

It was rare for Gu Changling to hear the word "Heli" without any overreaction, and he said quietly: "Well, even in name only, in the eyes of outsiders, you are my wife. Since you came to An'an with me, I should take care of you. Besides, Lin I also promised my father-in-law before leaving that I would make everything safe for you in Lin'an."

After saying that, he watched her reaction calmly.

If he said that he understood it so well and would keep her safe and take care of her, she wouldn't still feel like he wanted to kill her, right?

But after observing for a long time, she didn't feel any joy or surprise. Instead, she just said "oh" very calmly.

Gu Changling turned over a page of the book.

He always turned the pages of books very lightly, but this time his voice was a bit loud.

Yunwei was thinking about what he just said and didn't pay attention.

Gu Changling said to take care of her, is this the innate sense of responsibility that the male protagonist should have?

Or did his father put some pressure on him?

It's also possible that it's both.

Then Gu Changling's behavior can be reasonably explained.

Yun Wei didn't hesitate. If he was willing to live in peace along the way, without any murderous intentions or lustful intentions, she would naturally be very happy to cooperate.

She didn't ask any more questions, raised the bamboo tube and said with a smile: "The milk tea is delicious, thank you."

"Ah."

"Thank you for last night...thank you for your hard work."

Gu Changling stopped grumbling and suddenly asked, "How can I thank you?"

How can I thank you?Of course it's a verbal statement.

But seeing how serious someone was, Yun Wei couldn't think straight when she was sick, so she said, "...How about I take care of you next time you get sick?"

Gu Changling smiled and thought, that's okay.

The curtains were raised, and outside the window was green green and white clouds. The rapidly receding mountains passed through his clear and shallow pupils.

At this moment, Yun Wei seemed to see thousands of scenery in his eyes...

She looked away and fiddled with the bamboo tube cover in boredom, wondering what was he laughing at?

And why are you smiling at her like this?

No, she shouldn't think too much.

The back of her hand was itchy, so Yunwei scratched it. She was bitten by a mosquito in the lobby while packing pastries.

Only then did she have the mind to pay attention to a problem. There were so many mosquitoes in summer, but she didn't seem to be bitten once on Gu Changling's carriage or when she was next to him at night, right?

Is it possible that Gu Changling's aura can repel mosquitoes?

Yun Wei glanced over and was caught by Gu Changling, "What's wrong?"

"Well, why are there no mosquitoes where you are?"

Gu Changling glanced at her, took out a sachet from under the coffee table and threw it to her, "The insect repellent sachet made by Mr. Xu is not only for mosquitoes, but also for poisonous bees and the like. I usually carry it with me at night. Also put it next to the pillow."

Yun Wei took it and was very curious, "Then why is there no pungent smell?"

Doesn’t the mugwort and mint used to repel insects generally have a special taste?

"I don't know, you have to ask Mr. Xu."

"Then why didn't Mr. Xu come with you?"

"He is going to look for some medicine and will come back later."

"Oh."

Yunwei played with the sachet and suddenly asked: "Do you still have it? I'll give one to Rushiruhua. I'm afraid there are mosquitoes on their little cart."

"……No."

"Oh."

Yunwei asked no more questions and tied the sachet around her waist, thinking that she would ask Mr. Xu to make two more when he came.
