At this time, Tusheer seemed to feel the indifference and coldness in Shang Ruyi's body that came from the bone marrow, but she didn't say anything more, but there was a feeling of distress in her eyes.
After a long time, he said softly: "Miss, don't be sad."
Shang Ruyi said: "I have nothing to be sad about."
Tusheer said nothing.
Her silence attracted Shang Ruyi's attention. She turned to look at Tusheer's somewhat sad expression, and was about to say something when the maid came to deliver the meal.
The food that was delivered was not much, just a bowl of steaming soup and rice, and a few side dishes.
Tusheer asked: "Why did it take so long to make this thing?"
The maid smiled and said, "The people below are seasick, and the rice they just served accidentally dropped, so it warmed up again. Please forgive me for keeping you waiting for so long, madam."
After saying that, he also saluted Shang Ruyi.
Shang Ruyi couldn't help but take a look outside, but the room she was in was obviously very deep and she couldn't see the scenery outside the ship. Tusheer took the meal and said, "The boat is going very fast, so you should be careful."
The servant girl responded, turned and left.
As soon as she left, Tu Sheer first served Shang Ruyi and rinsed her mouth, then sat down by the bed with the small bowl of soup and rice and fed it to her in small spoonfuls. Shang Ruyi felt that a large part of his weakness should come from hunger, but he still had no appetite. He only took two spoonfuls from her hand, then shook his head tiredly: "I don't want to eat."
Tusheer said softly: "Miss, you haven't eaten much since you were in a coma for two days. This is not good for your health. Can you eat more?"
"..."
It turned out that he had been in a coma for two days.
No wonder he is so weak.
It's just a little strange. I was neither injured nor had any other symptoms. Why did I fall into a coma inexplicably and stay in a coma for two days?
But Shang Ruyi really didn't have much appetite and couldn't eat despite all the persuasion. Tushe could only say softly: "Well, I need to drink medicine later. After drinking the medicine, Miss, take two more bites, okay?"
"..."
For some reason, Shang Ruyi felt that this girl was a little too gentle.
Although the two grew up together, and Tusheer was loyal to her, she had never been so gentle to him, almost doting on him.
It even made Shang Ruyi a little awkward.
Could it be that this time of "separation between life and death" scared her?
Shang Ruyi thought about it and felt that there was something wrong with the fact that she was living a "good life" these days, but it frightened her, so she nodded gently. Tusheer immediately breathed a sigh of relief, then put the bowls and chopsticks on the table and covered them with lids to prevent them from getting cold.
Shang Ruyi said: "Open the window, I want to get some air."
Tusheer immediately said: "No."
"why not?"
"Miss, you can't blow the wind."
"I'm not that weak yet."
"……Really can not."
Tusheer seemed a little flustered, and there seemed to be a little guilt in her panic. Shang Ruyi couldn't help but frown: "What's going on? You, are you hiding something from me?"
When Tusheer heard this, he immediately shook his head: "No."…
But the look on her face clearly showed it.
Shang Ruyi's doubts became more serious - in fact, she had just woken up and she didn't have that much energy to face some people and things, but Tu Sheer was indeed so strange. Ever since she saw herself, her every move They all showed a kind of caution, as if they were afraid of breaking themselves.
What happened to her?
Just thinking about this, Shang Ruyi suddenly felt weak again.
She was too weak, and she really didn't have the extra energy to face the people and things in front of her, let alone find out what others were hiding from her.
Thinking of this, Shang Ruyi lay back softly, looked at Tu Sheer's nervous look with a somewhat sad look, and said lightly: "No,
There won’t be any…”
Seeing her like this, Tusheer's eyes turned red.
She didn't seem to dare to say anything more, for fear of arousing something again, so she could only say softly: "Miss, you, can you sleep a little longer? Your body - you need a good rest."
Shang Ruyi looked at her for a while and nodded gently.
Then she closed her eyes.
Although she had been in a coma for two days, she no longer wanted to sleep at this time, but as soon as she closed her eyes, tiredness rushed over to her like a tide, and she gradually fell asleep again amidst Tusheer's sigh.
But this time, she didn't fall asleep for long.
Because after a while, a familiar, warm breath approached her again, and she gradually woke up, but did not open her eyes.
Someone walked into the room and whispered to Tusheer to step back.
Then, the man sat on the edge of the bed.
Suddenly, the whole room fell into an almost oppressive silence. Shang Ruyi could not even hear his own breathing. Everything seemed to have stopped at this moment.
Then, a big hand slowly touched her face.
The unexpected skin-to-skin contact made her shudder, and the hand seemed to feel something. It froze for a moment, but still stayed on her face, rubbing her cheek that was obviously getting thinner, and then Gently brushing her messy hair behind her ears.
This hand is very rough, and you can even feel the roughness of a rock. It is precisely in this way that when you touch her, you can feel the touch of this hand more clearly.
For some reason, when this hand touched her, in addition to being as cautious as Tusheer, there seemed to be an emotion on the skin of the fingertips.
Like, determining something.
Shang Ruyi didn't quite understand what he was doing, but at this time, she didn't want to endure it any longer.
So, she said: "Let go."
This was the third time she said these two words to him after waking up.
The hand froze again, and this time, it slowly left.
Shang Ruyi then opened her eyes and met those eyes with a strange and gentle expression, so strange that she seemed not to recognize him.
In fact, the two people have never been familiar with each other.
This time Yu Wenye came and changed into another set of clothes. The red areas that had just been reddish seemed to have been re-bandaged. There was a slight smell of medicine all over his body, but the stronger smell of medicine came from his other hand.
He was holding a bowl of medicine. ….
Seeing that she opened her eyes, Yu Wenye retracted his hand, looked at her, and then whispered: "Come and drink some medicine."
"..."
Shang Ruyi wanted to refuse, but if he refused, he had to talk to him.
She wanted to ask why she had to take medicine when she had no pain or illness, but when she asked, she also wanted to talk to him.
But now, she didn't want to say a word to him anymore.
So, I closed my eyes a little tiredly.
Yu Wenye looked at her quietly for a while and said softly: "I know you don't want to see me now. But there are still some things between us that need to be made clear."
"..."
"Even if you don't want to say it clearly, you have survived."
"..."
"Those who survive should not do this to themselves."
Those who survived...
These words stung Shang Ruyi so much that even if he closed his eyes, something hot could not stop filling his eyes and slowly dripping down from the corners of his eyes.
Yu Wenye's breathing suddenly became heavy.
He watched Shang Ruyi slowly open his eyes. Although those eyes were filled with hot tears, they still had no warmth and were even frighteningly gray.
The clarity that once existed has gone somewhere.
He said solemnly: "Even if you have nothing to say to me, I still have something to say to you."
"..."
"You need to make some effort to listen
. "
"..."
Shang Ruyi was silent for a while, thought again, and silently pushed herself up to sit up. Yu Wenye hurriedly helped her sit on the head of the bed, and even pulled a cushion for her behind her to make her sit more comfortable. .
When she sat down, he picked up the spoon and fed her the soup in the small bowl little by little.
The decoction has just been boiled and is a little hot and a little bitter.
He cooled it down little by little and fed it to her mouth. When he finished drinking it, he picked up the pickled fruits that had been prepared on the table nearby and brought them to her mouth.
But Shang Ruyi shook his head and refused.
In fact, the medicine is not that bitter.
Seeing her like this, Yu Wenye took a deep breath and could only put the things back. When he turned around and was about to say something, he heard Shang Ruyi say: "Actually, I don't want to hear what you have to say. But, I do have something to say to you."
Yu Wenye looked at her: "Say."
Shang Ruyi said: "Thank you very much."
"...!"
Yu Wenye's breath was suffocated.
He said, "Thank you for what?"
Shang Ruyi said: "Thank you for saving my life."
Yu Wenye was silent for a moment, and when he spoke again, his voice was so low that it was almost hoarse: "We are husband and wife. I saved my wife, so there is no need to thank me."
Shang Ruyi lowered her eyelids, as if saying these few words had already made her very tired, so tired that she didn't even have the strength to raise her eyes to look at him. She said softly: "As a couple, this is a deal."
"..."
"Trading should be fair."
"..."
"I can't think of anything I can do to repay you for saving your life this time. But no matter what, I should say thank you in advance."
Yu Wenye looked at her steadily, his gaze so hot that it seemed to burn her whole body.
After a while, he said: "This is not a transaction between us."
Shang Ruyi slowly raised his eyes and glanced at him.
His face was a little stiff, as if he was trying his best to restrain something, but even if he restrained himself, veins still popped out in his hands, and the small bowl was almost broken by his pinching.
Shang Ruyi lowered his eyelids again.
She said, "I'm done."
After saying that, he slowly lay down and turned his face to the bed.
Just when she closed her eyes, preparing to isolate everything from the darkness, suddenly, the hand reached out, grabbed her chin gently, and forced her to face him.
Shang Ruyi opened his eyes and met Yu Wenye's somewhat red eyes.
He leaned down, his face almost touching hers.
The two people were so close that even their breathing was intertwined at this moment.
He looked deeply into her eyes and said word by word: "This is not a transaction between us!".
