Chapter 353 He's Gone Dead
Liang Yuying sat down in front of Li Shuchen's bed, took her hand and said, "Shuchen just woke up, don't worry about these things. I'll investigate. Just focus on recovering."
A warm sensation flowed from his palm. Li Shuchen glanced at his hand, which was being held tightly.
"Yuying, I'm not cold, you don't need to warm my hands."
Upon hearing this, Liang Yuying blushed and coughed slightly.
I'm afraid Shu Chen will be cold.
"General Liang, Linglong has arrived."
Grape spoke, and Liang Yuying finally let go of Li Shuchen's hand and made way for him.
"Miss is awake! That's wonderful!"
Grape happily stood by the bedside
Linglong felt relieved and took her wrist to check her pulse.
"Miss is mostly recovered, but the wound on her left arm is so deep that the bone is visible. She needs to rest for a while until the wound heals before she can exert herself."
Li Shuchen nodded: "Understood."
Linglong: "I'll go brew the medicine for Miss."
Grape: "I'll go cook for Miss."
Liang Yuying: "Zizhu has gone to buy food, and Grapes can boil some water to prepare."
Grape: "Yes, General Liang."
As soon as Grape left, Purple Pearl came in carrying large and small bags.
The aroma of meat filled the entire room, and Li Shuchen, who hadn't eaten meat for three days, greedily inhaled the smell.
"It smells so good! I want to eat it!"
Liang Yuying took the food from Zizhu's hand, opened a package of braised beef, picked up a slice, and brought it to Li Shuchen's mouth.
Li Shuchen opened his mouth wide and swallowed it all, his eyes squinting as he ate.
"It smells so good, give me another slice!"
Liang Yuying continued feeding him, feeding him whatever Li Shuchen ordered, finding pleasure in this and never tiring of it.
Finally, Li Shuchen ate until his belly was completely round, and let out a long sigh.
"That's wonderful; it would be even better if it could be like this every day."
Liang Yuying: "I'll come feed Shuchen again tomorrow."
Li Shuchen waved his hand: "How can she come to take care of me every day? Yuying also has her own things to do. I'm content if she comes to see me occasionally."
Liang Yuying: "Nothing can compare to Shu Chen; Shu Chen's matter is the most important thing."
Upon hearing this, Li Shuchen earnestly advised, "I know you treat me the best in the world, but I'm not your everything. I also need to do my own things."
Liang Yuying frowned slightly upon hearing this, but she didn't voice the thought, "It's everything."
She's afraid of alienating her, so now she doesn't dare show too much.
He relented and said, "Tomorrow it's Ziying's turn to take care of Shuchen. I'll come again on the fourth day."
Li Shuchen nodded: "Okay, I'm a little sleepy, I want to go to sleep."
Liang Yuying helped Li Shuchen lie down: "Go to sleep. I'll stay here with you; it's safe."
Li Shuchen lay down, fell asleep peacefully, and had sweet dreams.
……
The next day, before Li Shuchen opened his eyes, Gu Ziying had already arrived.
A fragrant aroma of food wafted into Li Shuchen's nose, making her mouth water.
He raised his right hand to wipe his mouth, opened his eyes and sat up, only to see a beautiful purple figure bustling about.
"Ziying is here so early!"
Gu Ziying looked up at the sound, her eyes reddening as she saw the smiling, spirited Li Shuchen. She quickly walked over and took her hand tightly.
"Shu Chen, you're really awake! That's wonderful!"
"I'm so powerful, I'll definitely wake up. These are minor issues, they can't defeat me at all."
"You always get injured and fall into a coma, and I'm always terrified."
Li Shuchen squeezed Gu Ziying's hand to comfort her: "Oh dear, it's my fault. My martial arts skills aren't up to par yet. It's still a bit difficult to fight against multiple opponents. Once I recover from my injuries, I'll study more and become a master, then I won't get injured anymore, and you won't have to be afraid or worried."
"I've been training with Changning and I feel much stronger. Why don't you teach me martial arts, Shuchen? I can protect Shuchen a bit."
Learning martial arts inevitably leads to injuries, and protecting her will only bring more. Fainting is a minor matter; if something unfortunate were to happen... she would regret it for the rest of her life. She doesn't want Ziying to suffer like that; she only wants her to live a safe and peaceful life.
Li Shuchen thought for a moment, then changed the subject: "I'm so hungry. What did Ziying cook? It smells so good!"
"Look at me, I was so busy talking to you that I forgot about breakfast."
Gu Ziying got up and brought over a bowl of chicken soup: "Shu Chen, have some soup first. This soup has been simmering on the stove for four hours (eight hours). You'll definitely love it."
Li Shuchen didn't rush to drink it, and looked at the ginseng in the cup with a puzzled expression: "I remember I've used up all the ginseng I have, where did this one come from?"
Gu Ziying scooped up a spoonful of soup, blew on it, and brought it to Li Shuchen's lips: "Who cares where it comes from? Since it's good for your health, just drink it."
Li Shuchen found this statement reasonable and lowered his head to drink the delicious chicken soup.
"It's delicious, I can finish this whole cup."
Okay, be careful, it's hot.
He drank it all down, sip after sip, not even leaving a sip of the meat inside.
Li Shuchen was very satisfied with the meal.
Gu Ziying: "I'll go check on the medicine. Shu Chen, rest for a while."
"it is good"
After Gu Ziying left, Li Shuchen looked at Grape and asked, "Where did the ginseng come from? Why wouldn't Ziying tell me?"
Grape walked to the bedside and replied, "Miss, Lord Gu sent over many tonics, including three ginseng roots."
Li Shuchen sighed, "Every time I get injured, Ziying sends me a lot of things, and I can't stop her. In the past two years, she has spent a lot of money on these tonics alone. Earning money is not easy, and I don't want her to spend any more money on me."
Grape: "Yes, I've seen how good Master Gu is to Miss, but perhaps she's afraid Miss will say that, so she doesn't want to tell her."
Li Shuchen: "Eat this ginseng sparingly; use less next time you cook."
Grape: "There are three thousand-year-old ginseng roots and ten hundred-year-old ginseng roots in the warehouse. Miss, don't worry, it's definitely enough."
Li Shuchen's eyes widened upon hearing this: "How can there be so many? Did someone else come to deliver tonics?"
Grape thought for a moment and said, "Princess Changning, General Liang, and Miss Ye all gave quite a few gifts, including three thousand-year-old ginseng roots, which were given by the Tenth Prince, Prince Xu, and Young Master Cheng."
Li Shuchen frowned upon hearing this: "Xu Shizi sent a gift perhaps because he admires me, Cheng Zhian sent a gift perhaps because he feels guilty towards me, but why did the Tenth Prince send a gift? Logically speaking, since he saved me, I should be sending him a gift, so why did he send one to me first?"
Grape shook her head: "Grape doesn't understand this either."
Li Shuchen: "Never mind that for now. Go back to the inn and pawn all the jewelry and accessories the Tenth Prince sent. Then donate the money to the Aiyou Hall."
"Yes, miss"
"Greetings to County Princess Gu. I heard that Shu Chen has awakened; may I go in and see her?"
Cheng Zhian's voice came from outside, and Li Shuchen pricked up his ears to listen.
Gu Ziying: "Of course, Scholar Cheng, please."
Cheng Zhian stepped into the room, and when she saw Li Shuchen's bright eyes, her own eyes reddened.
"You're awake. How are you feeling?"
Li Shuchen: "It's fine, nothing serious."
Cheng Zhian lowered his head and said, "It's my fault for not protecting you well. I'm sorry."
Li Shuchen: "You don't need to apologize. That man in black has a grudge against me for a long time and has been looking for an opportunity to kill me. It just so happens that he went out with you."
And I also want to thank you. The huge amount of gold and silver jewelry you bought for me, no matter how much money you spent, I used it all as weapons to fight the men in black. It was very useful. If it weren't for these things, I would be dead."
