Quick Wear: Don't come over here, you are looking for trouble

There was only one bed in the room. Xie He was a patient now, and Xu Bai refused to sleep with him. But he was afraid that something might happen at night, so he just lay down beside him and took a nap.

The medicine had to be taken three times a day, once every four hours. It took nearly an hour to boil the medicine, and combined with cooking porridge, the young master couldn't sleep at all.

Xie He was in a daze. On the first day after Xu Bai came, he could still force himself to make jokes, but he couldn't do that afterwards. The typhoid fever was coming on aggressively and quickly eroding his body.

"His Majesty……"

The young master's voice seemed to be called through a layer of gauze, vague and unclear. With his back propped up and his dry lips touched by porridge or medicine, Xie He couldn't tell the taste and could only swallow subconsciously.

The cold little hands would occasionally touch his forehead.

Xie He felt like he had seen this before, and just as he was about to think, his consciousness was swallowed up by complete, boundless darkness.

Xu Bai looked at Xie He, whose face was red from the fever, and couldn't help but sigh, "It has to be the male lead. At this temperature, he must be almost cooked."

Is he conscious now?

Liu Er looked at the data fluctuations and said, "He is awake. If you let him dream now, he will definitely not forget it when he wakes up."

This is the effect you want.

Xie He dreamed of the little fairy again. He had grown up and seemed to be taller and thinner. When he looked down at himself, he was no longer the skinny kid.

The little fairy seemed to be staring at him. The two of them were silent until Xie He couldn't help but speak, "You...why can't I see your face clearly?"

"I'm leaving." The young man's voice sounded a little sad, and there was also an inexplicable familiarity. Before Xie He could speak, he floated over and put his cold palm on his forehead, making Xie He tremble all over.

"!"

"Your Majesty, are you awake?"

Only then did Xie He realize that he had woken up from the dream, and the person he was holding tightly was not the little fairy, but Xu Bai.

There was worry in Xu Bai's eyes that had not yet faded away. There was a dark circle under his eyes and he looked extremely haggard.

"…I'm glad you're awake. Drink some water."

The lights in the room had not been turned off, and tiny gurgling sounds and the smell of medicine drifted over. The young master had no idea how long it had been since he had rested. He staggered just by standing up, swaying with his knees bent and almost falling down.

“Hmm…!” It was a very light sound, suppressed with great effort, probably because he was afraid that he would hear it.

Xie He felt distressed, but since the young master didn't want him to hear it, he pretended not to hear it. So when Xu Bai brought the water over, Xie He had already closed his eyes and seemed to be asleep again.

Xie He was always sleeping these days, and his symptoms were worse than the previous three days. He would choke when fed medicine or porridge. Apart from the scalding temperature, he was like a corpse, motionless and unconscious.

Xu Bai didn't dare to sleep, for he was afraid that Xie He would die silently while he was sleeping.

In the end, the young master unknowingly fell in love with his brother who took him flying kites when they were young.

Xie He didn't respond, so Xu Bai just held the water and looked at him steadily. He couldn't bear it anymore and was about to open his eyes to see what the young master was doing, when suddenly there was a "tap" sound, and water dripped onto his cheek.

One drop, another drop.

Some went down to the chin, and some went into the mouth through the lips.

Bitter and astringent.

Those are tears. The young master is crying.

Are you crying for him?

He treated him as an enemy who had confiscated his property and killed his family, so why would he cry for him?

“Thank you, thank you He…” Xu Bai cried heavily, his voice trembling uncontrollably, “Thank you He… Thank you brother… wake up, I’m so scared, wu… Nian Nian is so scared…”

Xie He’s body was stiff. He could feel the young man’s body pressed against him through the quilt. He sobbed and muttered intermittently, “…Don’t die, don’t die…You are a good emperor, I admit that you are a good emperor…Please…”

"Ou... look at me..." Xu Bai was completely exhausted. His chest was heaving and he was gasping for breath. His current condition looked even scarier than Xie He's. It was as if someone was strangling his neck. Every breath he took brought out a bloody smell from his chest.

Xie He had never felt such strong concern from anyone other than the little immortal. He could not escape and was shocked. He opened his eyes in panic, and his dry and chapped lips bled when he moved. "...Don't cry, it's okay..."

But Xie He's reaction was even more frightening. The young master burst into tears, obviously thinking that he was having a last gasp. While crying, he pulled off the face towel and rubbed it on his face, leaving blood stains all over his face. "You...you are going to die, then we will die together...you go and apologize to my parents, and go down and tell them in person..."

【Xie He’s Favorability: 96】

"You want to die with me?" Xie He looked at Xu Bai, feeling both sad and sweet in his heart.

Xu Bai cried so hard that his pupils were dilated. His eyes were only slightly focused when Xie He grabbed his arm tightly. He stared blankly at Xie He, whose pupils suddenly lit up with two flames.

Xie He spoke each word with emphasis.

Fierceness and mockery reappeared on his face. He didn't look like a dying patient, but more like the emperor who once frightened Xu Bai. Xie He reached out and stroked the boy's cheek. "We won't die together. It's just typhoid fever, and you want to take my life?"

As the night deepened, the two snuggled together.

"What exactly happened back then?" Xu Bai's eyes were half closed, and he looked a little sleepy, but he still asked in a low voice.

Xie He touched Xu Bai's hair. After not taking care of it for a few days, the young master's hair was no longer as smooth as before, but he still couldn't bear to let go.

"What did you forget you promised me?"

Xu Bai was stunned for a moment, and his pale cheeks blushed belatedly. Perhaps he thought that both of them would die here, he actually opened his mouth and called "husband" very softly.

The sound exploded in Xie He's ears like thunder. He was stunned for a moment and didn't know how to react.

I only know that my heart is very soft and sweet.

There was silence for a while.

The young master spoke first, "…my family matters…"

"Sorry." Xie He never bothered to explain anything to others, because he preferred others to misunderstand him, to misunderstand that he was cold-blooded, cruel and violent, so that everyone would be afraid of him and would submit to him.

But now he is willing to "explain" it to Xu Bai.

"It wasn't me who gave the order that day. It was the Fourth Prince. He knew I was going to imprison him, so he came up with a plan to sow discord. He was the one who brought the guards, and he also gave the order. By the time I got there, it was too late. The Gu Mansion was a river of blood, and I didn't find you."

This explanation was too simple and too light. The young master bit his lip, frowned, and was obviously confused. "...Really...?"

"nature."

"You can't lie to me."

Touching Xu Bai's moist and red eyes, Xie He subconsciously dodged and turned his gaze back, "How could my husband lie to my wife?"
