This illness made Xiao Ruge sleep soundly for three days. Mu Gu stayed by Xiao Ruge's side all the time except when it was necessary to go out to deal with things. The doctor was invited every day, and the answer given to him after the consultation was always the same. Xiao Ruge did not have any serious problems, but his body had suffered too much in the recent period and needed recuperation.

But Mu Gu was still worried. How could a minor cold keep him down for so many days? So he called in a group of different doctors.

The doctors invited by Mu Gu did not dare to make a fuss about Xiao Ruge's illness. They all gave the same result honestly. After all, no one dared to speak nonsense in the prince's mansion unless that person did not want to live.

Xiao Ruge never woke up, and Mu Gu couldn't find a better solution, so he had to spend more time talking to her.

Perhaps Xiao Ruge was able to feel Mu Gu's voice and sincerity, and she woke up on the third day after she fell into a coma.

When Xiao Ruge slightly opened her eyes, she knew very clearly that she had slept for a long time. Her body felt hot as if it was burning on fire, and then cold as if she was in an ice cave. Finally, she slowly calmed down. She had the best sleep since her family's accident.

His mind was clear, but every part of his body felt like it was being pressed down by something and he couldn't move. He tried to speak, but his throat seemed to be blocked and he could only make slight sounds.

Because she was in a coma and hadn't had any water for a long time, when she tried to speak, her throat felt like it was torn apart with excruciating pain.

She tried hard to open her eyes to make the scene clearer. She moved her eyes and scanned the room, and saw Mu Gu reading a book at the table.

"Water... water..."

Xiao Ruge didn't know how much strength she had exerted. She only knew that when she finished saying these two words, her back was already soaked with sweat. However, the distance between the bed and the table was not close, and the sound she made was like a kitten's meow. In addition, Mu Gu was so engrossed in reading that he couldn't hear her voice at all.

If she were an ordinary person, she would just give up, but she was Xiao Ruge, and she was not someone who would despair so easily.

It had been a while since he woke up, and his whole body had warmed up from the ordeal just now. Xiao Ruge tried to move his arms, and was able to move them slowly.

She turned her head with difficulty, caught a glimpse of a cup of steaming tea on the bedside table, and decided to rely on herself.

She tried hard to control her unruly and somewhat stiff right hand and pulled it out of the cup, reaching out to the teacup with trembling hands. However, she had not moved her hand for several days and her whole hand was not very obedient. After finally touching the cup, Xiao Ruge did not have time to be happy as her palm shook violently and she overturned the cup of hot tea. The cup fell to the wooden floor with a thud and the hot tea instantly splashed onto Xiao Ruge's hand that was hanging limply by the side of the cabinet.

The hot water made the back of her hand sting like needles, but she couldn't even do the simplest subconscious reaction of quickly withdrawing her hand and could only endure the pain.

The sound of the teacup falling to the ground woke up Mu Gu, who was concentrating on reading a book. He quickly put the book down and walked quickly to the bed. He saw Xiao Ruge's hand, which was red and swollen and trembling slightly, and his heart ached.

Outside the door, Bai Zhi was carrying the boiled medicine to bring in when she heard the noise from inside the house. She pushed the door open and saw the glaring wound on Xiao Ruge's hand. Her heart tightened and she quickly turned around to get sugar from the kitchen.

Mu Gu half-knelt beside the bed, held up that hand, and looked at Xiao Ruge with eyes full of heartache.

"Mu Gu...it hurts..."

Maybe it was because she had just woken up and had experienced such a helpless incident, Xiao Ruge no longer had the strong look she had before, but had become very fragile.

At this moment, the beloved person in front of Mu Gu was crying out in pain. Mu Gu wanted to slap himself twice. Why didn't he find out the moment Xiao Ruge woke up, causing Xiao Ruge to suffer such pain right after she recovered from the illness?

Hearing Xiao Ruge's choking voice, Mu Gu became a little anxious. Bai Zhi was still on her way to get sugar. He could only rinse Xiao Ruge's red and swollen hands with cold water over and over again. Because of his anxiety, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

Xiao Ruge looked at the figure busying herself in front of her and felt that she seemed to have really found someone who loved her deeply. She couldn't stop feeling happy and even her hands didn't hurt as much.

"Mu Gu, blow on me and it won't hurt anymore..."

Xiao Ruge's voice gradually calmed down, and Mu Gu also breathed a sigh of relief. Hearing Xiao Ruge's request, Mu Gu did not hesitate at all. He immediately lifted Xiao Ruge's hand and put it to his mouth, blowing gently. The warm and cool wind made Xiao Ruge's hand feel a lot more comfortable, and also made her heart a little itchy.

Xiao Ruge's palms also curled up.

Looking at the person in front of her whose heart and eyes were filled with only her, Xiao Ruge laughed from the bottom of her heart.

Mu Gu simply held Xiao Ruge in his arms and kept blowing gently on Xiao Ruge's hands until the person in his arms stopped trembling. Then he lowered his eyes and looked at her seriously.

"How are you? Are you feeling better?"

Xiao Ruge hummed softly, without saying anything, and just leaned her head tightly against this strong chest.

"Would you like some water?"

Mu Gu got a sigh in response. He smiled and shook his head. He didn't expect the person in his arms to be so easy to coax. He actually hoped that Xiao Ruge could be a little harder to coax, so that she could be as carefree as those little girls around him, giving him some room to perform.

Mu Gu stood up, took another cup, poured tea in it, and handed it to Xiao Ruge's mouth. He watched her drink the cup down in one breath, and rubbed Xiao Ruge's head helplessly.

"Have you forgotten the pain so quickly?"

Xiao Ruge pouted in dissatisfaction when her shortcomings were exposed by Mu Gu.

"It still hurts. You didn't notice I woke up. I wanted to drink some water but no one gave it to me."

Xiao Ruge said this, pretending to be angry, and pushed Mu Gu hard, as if trying to escape from her arms. Mu Gu was neither annoyed nor angry, and let the person in his arms flutter around in his arms like a kitten.

"Okay, okay, it's my fault. What compensation do you want?"

Mu Gu couldn't suppress the smile on his face. He hugged the person tightly in his arms, watching the person's cheeks bulge slightly because he couldn't move.

Hearing Mu Gu's words, Xiao Ruge became interested. She raised her head and saw Mu Gu's angular chin and long eyelashes that cast a shadow on his face.

Mu Gu is considered one of the most handsome men in the whole of Dalong. Xiao Ruge is also a woman who yearns for beauty. Naturally, she is also moved by Mu Gu's appearance. She couldn't help swallowing and spoke slowly.

"Any compensation?"
