The person who came to visit Su Tang was the so-called young lord of the Dead City, the male protagonist Meng Xiang whom she avoided as much as possible. And he was not alone. Behind him was Yuan Jianyan who was just asked.

As soon as she saw the two men, Nanhong immediately found an excuse to slip away.

Su Tang sighed secretly. Although he was very upset, he put on a weak smile as much as possible. "I heard from Sister Nan that it was the Young City Lord who saved me. Thank you very much. And Brother Yuan, thank you very much!"

Yuan Jianyan just nodded slightly without saying anything, while Meng Xiang sat by the bed and looked at her. Hearing this, a half-smile appeared on his handsome face, "This is the second time..."

"……Yes."

"So, how are you going to repay me?"

Su Tang was startled, then realized something. She stopped smiling and said seriously, "You say."

Meng Xiang didn't beat around the bush and directly reached out his hand to Yuan Jianyan who was standing behind him, until the other party took out the leather bag on his waist and handed it to him.

"You made this thing." He slowly pulled out the crossbow from the leather bag. "Don't deny it. I've asked someone to identify it. They can still tell whether it's new or old."

Su Tang was very surprised, not because he was found out, but because, although the two people did not communicate with each other, they were obviously in sync with each other as they sat and stood, stretched their hands and handed each other things, so it was definitely not their first acquaintance.

Yuan Jianyan is actually Meng Xiang’s man!

It’s a bit...unexpected.

At this point, it was impossible to hide it anymore, so she simply admitted, "Yes."

Her knowledge was appreciated by Meng Xiang. He liked talking to smart people. Although he was increasingly interested in some aspects of this girl named Su Tang, what was more important was that she could bring him greater benefits.

"Well, as the price for saving you, I'd like you to tell me how to make this crossbow. That shouldn't be too much to ask, right?"

Su Tang hesitated for a moment. If she could use the method of making a crossbow to settle the dispute, she would definitely be happy about it. She was just afraid that things would not be that simple. But in the current situation, she seemed to have only one choice.

"Of course, I can give you the production drawings. But it's quite complicated, and I may not be able to draw it now." Although she couldn't refuse, at least she could delay some time, and she had to sort out her thoughts.

Meng Xiang raised his eyebrows, "Okay."

Su Tang's face showed obvious fatigue, and Meng Xiang, who had achieved his goal, could not stay any longer, so he quickly left with Yuan Jianyan.

Left alone in the room, Su Tang closed his eyes tiredly.

She knew that the other party might think that she was playing tricks on her and taking advantage of the opportunity to gain more benefits, but in fact, all she needed was time to determine what to do next.

She would leave the City Lord's Mansion, but definitely not now. To be honest, there was no safer place to recuperate than here. For this reason, she had to stay until she could protect herself before handing over the blueprints for the crossbow.

If you choose to stay, you may face the heroine at any time.

Although she didn't know whether the other party had come or not, she was no longer Meng Xiang's woman and had no ill will towards the heroine. So, the relationship between the two should not become tense.

From two perspectives, her safety is still safe.

Of course, this is just a best assumption.

Accidents are many and can happen at any time.

She would still encounter various dangers outside, but as long as she could get away from the people in the original novel, she would feel at ease. Whether the original plot could be changed was a question buried deep in her heart, and it was also the source of her fear. Therefore, the most important thing for her now was to recover from her injuries as soon as possible and get away from here!

Now that you have a broader horizon, are you still afraid that you can't live a better life?

She fell into a drowsy sleep, and her brows gradually relaxed.

The life of recuperation officially began.

I have to say, this is the most comfortable day she has had since she came into this world.

The bed was big and soft. Although the food was not as exquisite as in the previous life, it had staple food, vegetables and soup, which was many times better than the nutritional cakes in the furniture store. There was also a dedicated doctor to treat her. Song Qingguang would take some time every day to come and see her condition, which made her feel very happy.

Nanhong, who stayed in the name of companionship, knew that Su Tang was not interested in Song Qingguang, so she let go and asked her to help think of how to make him look at her differently.

"Are you serious?"

Nan Hong rolled her eyes at her, "Of course it's true! Living one more day is a blessing these days. If you meet a man you like and don't want to turn him down, are you waiting to regret it when you die?"

These words were so open that Su Tang could only be shocked.

Unfortunately, she is very inexperienced when it comes to love. In her previous life, she did not have enough time for studying and had no extra time to think about such things!

However, while Nanhong was obsessed with Song Qingguang, she remembered another thing intermittently.

The original text seems to have a description of this man, with excellent medical skills, gentle as jade, etc., a perfect male supporting role! And the most important point is that although he is the male protagonist's right-hand man, he later becomes a fan of the female protagonist.

The more he remembered, the more Su Tang doubted whether there really was such a man in the world?

He clearly liked her, but after she found a partner, he not only did not avoid her, but instead helped her with all his strength, helping her consolidate her position... The original person's final death may not have been without his shadow. Is it really true that a man can do this?

Considering some subtle thoughts, Su Tang didn't mind helping Nan Hong.

She took advantage of her injuries to ask Song Qingguang a lot of medical knowledge. This man came from a family of traditional Chinese medicine. Although his relatives passed away one after another for various reasons after the end of the world, with his intelligent mind and his body transformed by water-based abilities, he inherited the wishes of his elders and became an outstanding doctor.

Of course, he did this not just for Nanhong. Su Tang felt that it was good that he could learn more.

Song Qingguang was not surprised by her behavior, but rather had a very good attitude. "Some people say that medicine and poison are inseparable, and this is true. With your ability to make poisons, it is not difficult to learn Chinese medicine. If you are really interested, I can give you some books to read to kill time."

Toxic?

Su Tang blinked, and it took him a while to react. It was probably because of his poison arrow that the other party came to this conclusion. It must be said that it is a good thing to use your imagination properly!

As a result, she not only successfully borrowed the basic medical books, but also got a free teacher to answer her questions. Nanhong also got more opportunities to spend time with her beloved.

All in all, under the premise that he cannot leave, Su Tang's legs are getting better day by day, and he lives a comfortable and happy life.

But sometimes, there will be discordant notes, that is the arrival of Meng Xiang.

He didn't come often, but he would come every two days. And every time he would bring a small gift, a bouquet of flowers, a plate of snacks, a beautiful little ornament...

Every time he came, Nanhong would leave tactfully. If Song Qingguang was there, the two of them would leave together tactfully.

Su Tang didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

That day, Meng Xiang came again. Song Qingguang and Nan Hong exchanged glances and immediately said goodbye in tacit agreement.

Meng Xiang waved his hand indifferently and sat down beside Su Tang's bed with familiarity.

In fact, this man is really handsome, and he is very cheerful when it comes to not doing serious things. When you are with him, you don't need to worry about the conversation being boring. Not only will the conversation not be boring, but you will also be amused by the countless jokes he has. As a companion on the sickbed, there is no one more suitable than him.

But... Su Tang, half leaning against the head of the bed, had a smile on his face, but his mind was clear as day. However, that was all.

When Meng Xiang saw her beautiful smile, his heart was moved.

This girl was soft and sweet when they first met, but she fooled him before leaving, which made him itch. He wanted to find her again when he had a chance, but he was too busy to remember it after he went back. If this matter had ended here, it would have been fine, but he didn't expect there would be a sequel. When he received Yuan Jianyan's emergency signal, he happened to be not far away, so he led the team to rescue this capable subordinate.

Unexpectedly, she gave him a surprise.

Sometimes she is innocent and naive, sometimes she is calm and self-controlled, and sometimes she is rational and clear-headed... different faces are integrated into one person, which makes him want to explore involuntarily, how many faces does she have?

It's not like he couldn't see the distance in her eyes, but that only made him more interested.

"Can you please not get so close?"

Meng Xiang came back to his senses and found that he was very close to that fair and flawless face. He could even smell the faint sweet scent from the other person, and a small hand was pushing his chest hard.

He stared into those cat-like eyes and licked his lips, "Why, you don't like it?"

"Yes, I don't like it!"

"Tsk tsk, that answer is so neat and annoying." He put his hand over the other's and pressed the little hand hard against his chest. "Tell me, what don't you like?"

Su Tang narrowed his eyes and looked at the man who exuded a seductive aura. Is this guy... masturbating?

"You don't want to know."

"What if I want to!"

Su Tang curled the corners of his lips and pulled his hand away abruptly, "Sexy peach blossom eyes, pretending to be ambiguous, and this uncomfortable posture! I don't like it at all!"

Meng Xiang's smile froze on his face, and his breath suddenly turned cold. After a moment, he put his hands on both sides of her body and approached her.

At such a short distance, the heavy gaze pierced Su Tang's heart. The other party was very powerful, and she was enveloped by his aura. She had to use all her strength to counter that momentum.

The two stared at each other for a long while. Her breathing became heavier, but she refused to show weakness.

Although she came to a different world, she still adhered to her own code of conduct. She knew that the consequences of angering a man might be serious, but she could not help but do it. Life is precious, but there are always some things that are beyond it, and you are unwilling to give up even in the face of danger.

She couldn't be hypocritical with him in this regard.

Whether it was right or wrong, she didn't know.

But there is no doubt that if she had to do it again, she would do it again.

The atmosphere in the room became increasingly tense. Su Tang widened his eyes and became alert.

But at this moment, the man suddenly stood up, raised his head and laughed!
