Bond of Smiling Proud

Day after day, time slipped by quietly.

It was evening again.

Wen Mu withdrew his hand on Dongfang's wrist, a slight smile appeared on his indifferent brows, "If you rest for another month, you will be fully recovered."

Dongfang slightly hooked the corners of his lips, looked at the serious-looking little girl in the candlelight, with gentle eyes, "Thank you very much."

Wen Mu looked up at him, and pursed his lips slightly, "This is the first time in a long time that you thanked me."

There is a gentle touch on the head.She heard the young man's deep and clear voice, with a smile, "Xiao Mu blames me for not being polite?"

She shook her head, her eyebrows and eyes slightly stretched, she stood up and said, "I saved people, but I don't thank you. I'll go and see the medicine."

Dongfang quietly watched her figure disappear into the kitchen, with a faint smile on his lips.

The oil lamp was extinguished, and the dark night slowly covered the small bamboo house.

The girl curled up on the bamboo chair beside her, breathing gradually shallow and steady.

Dongfang suddenly sat up, leaned against the corner of the wall, concealed his breath and figure, and a murderous intent flashed in his bright black eyes.

Outside the window, there were only intermittent chirping of insects and the slight sound of swaying branches and leaves.

After a while, hurried footsteps gradually approached and stopped at the door, and then there was a hasty knock on the door.

"Sister Wen! Sister Wen, wake up!"

The bamboo chair creaked slightly.The girl sat up gently, her eyes were blank for a moment, and then she returned to her usual calm and indifferent.

She got up and went to open the door.

At the door was a boy of twelve or thirteen years old.He was holding the lantern, his slightly childish brows and eyes were scorched, "Sister Wen, my mother suddenly vomited in the middle of the night, she just passed out!"

Wen Mu frowned slightly, and said softly, "Wait at the door, I'll go get the medicine."

Dongfang watched her go back to the house in the dark, took the medicine box from the bottom of the shelf familiarly, quickly took some herbs from the medicine shelf and put them away, turned around and walked towards the bright place where the boy was outside.Halfway through the walk, she turned her head and caught his gaze, and explained softly, "I'll go back as soon as I go, you can go back to sleep." Without waiting for him to reply, she hurriedly closed the door and left.

Her calm and gentle voice came from outside the door, "Did Madam eat something in the evening? Have you ever caught cold?"

The boy responded in a low voice with panic.Because of the sound of the wind and the sound of footsteps gradually going away, I couldn't hear it clearly.

Only now did Dongfang stand up, walked to the door and looked out.

I saw that meager light gradually disappearing into the night.

He turned around, and the turbulent killing intent gradually subsided, but he didn't feel sleepy either.

The air is filled with the bitter aroma of medicinal herbs.Taking a deep breath, the fluctuating mood gradually calmed down.

But more than two months.In this small mountain village, I was accompanied by that indifferent and clumsy little girl.Those days of bloody swords, clamoring enemies, and endless battles seemed like a lifetime away.

He looked at his slender fingers in the darkness.

Such a pair of hands once held a knife and once held a sword.He once twisted the neck of a person with his bare hands, and pierced a living heart neatly.After a long while, he closed it vigorously.

The night gradually faded.The sky hadn't come up yet.

There are crisp birdsong, chirping to wake up the early morning at the end of summer.

The girl carried the medicine basket on her back, stepped on the dew and the meager light of the lantern, and walked gently back to the quiet bamboo house still shrouded in night.

As soon as he reached the courtyard, his footsteps stopped.

As if at that moment, the morning light shone slightly.The handsome and elegant young man with long hair tied up looked at her with a smile, "You're back."

Wen Mu froze for a moment, then nodded slightly, with a slight arc on the corners of his lips.

The young man took a few steps to meet her, and saw that she was carrying a medicine box, a lantern in one hand, and a bamboo basket in the other, and he couldn't help raising his eyebrows slightly.

He stepped forward to take the lantern and bamboo basket from her, but heard a soft "cuckoo" sound from the bamboo basket.

Wen Mu explained in a low voice, "Originally, they wanted to keep me for one night. I said I would come back, but the aunt felt sorry, so she insisted on giving it, saying it was the consultation fee. Later, I just added some angelica and stewed the soup. "

Dongfang smiled slightly. He looked at the girl with an indifferent face, his eyes were gentle, "So, I am lucky."

Seeing the moisture in her hair again, he went into the room to get a clean cloth towel, handed it to her, and said in a gentle voice, "Wipe it off."

Wen Mu's heart seemed to move.Look up at him seriously.

He was standing in the morning light, with a tall body and gentle eyes, slowly smiling at her.

In the black jade-like pupils, it seems that the stars have fallen all over the sky.

However, Dongfang did not drink the chicken soup.

Wen Mu came back and took a nap.When she woke up, it was already noon.

She sat up in a daze, only to realize that she was sleeping on the bed.She was covered with a thin quilt.

But she was clearly lying on the bamboo chair with all her clothes on.

The sound of cicadas outside the window.The midday sun was blazing and bright.

She seemed to feel something in her heart.He got up slowly and walked around the house and the courtyard.

The herbs are neatly dried in the yard.The little chick was drowsy in the bamboo basket.

Behind the courtyard is a lush bamboo forest, and the summer wind blows, creating green waves in the sun.

It's just that the elegant young man who was covered in blood when we first met, but who was as gentle as jade after we met was gone.

Wen Mu stood quietly in the courtyard for a moment.There seems to be a slight soreness in my heart, but it seems that there is nothing.

Finally, she pursed her lips and let out a light breath.
