As soon as Zhang Zheng left, the room became quiet.
Chu Yue reached out and touched the bed, then her bright eyes crooked, like a thief, she took out a book of words hidden under the bed and read through it. Her ears were still paying attention to the movement at the door. If someone came in, It's best to put the storybook away as soon as possible.
…
When the sky turned completely dark, Lu Xinghe finally came back.
He entered the house with his body full of wind and frost. After closing the door, he stood at the door for a while before walking towards Chu Yue's bed.
There was still a light burning in the room at this moment, and Chu Yue was flipping through the storybook with enthusiasm. When she heard the voice, she panicked, and with a trembling hand, she smashed the storybook on her face.
"Ouch!"
Xu touched the wound on her forehead, and she frowned slightly in pain.
Lu Xinghe quickened his pace and came to her side.
"What's wrong?"
Chu Yue endured the pain and put away the storybook first, then stuffed it into the quilt again.
"It's okay, it's just that I didn't hold the book securely and hit myself." After saying that, she looked at Lu Xinghe, "Why did my husband come so late? Didn't you say that safety is the most important thing?"
She suddenly thought of the scene when she was still living in Banpo Village three years ago. At that time, her husband went to the county town to sell vegetables. He was afraid that she would not sleep well at night, so he rushed home all night.
The memories were really sweet to her heart.
Lu Xinghe put down the things in his hands and lowered his head to check Chu Yue's forehead to see if there was any blood from the hit on his forehead just now.
"You are still injured now. I was worried that no one would be by your side at night, so I rushed back under the cover of darkness."
He answered Chu Yue while checking.
Chu Yue looked at Lu Xinghe who was so close, feeling warm in her heart.
"I'm fine. It's just that the wound hurts a bit. The words aren't thick, so the damage wasn't heavy."
After Lu Xinghe heard this, he turned his gaze to Chu Yue's eyes.
"Be careful when reading next time."
"Yeah." Chu Yue responded obediently.
I thought that Lu Xinghe would leave after telling him, but he seemed to suddenly freeze, his deep eyes going down from Chu Yue's eyes, and finally landed on her red lips.
Then he lowered his head and pressed his cool lips on Chu Yue's red lips.
Chu Yue suddenly opened her eyes wide, looking at Junyan who was so close to Lu Xinghe, her mind went blank.
Because he was afraid of injuring the little girl beneath him, Lu Xinghe just touched her lips and left.
He didn't know why, but he couldn't help but want to get close to her every time he saw her.
If it weren't for the fact that she was still injured, he might have wanted more...
After pretending to cough twice, he said in a low and hoarse voice, "You go to bed first. I'll go out to freshen up, change my clothes, and then come in."
Chu Yue responded shyly and closed her eyes.
When Lu Xinghe returned to the room after washing up, the little girl on the bed was no longer moving, and only the slightest breathing could be heard in the room.
He gently moved the couch to the bedside, turned off the lights in the room and lay down next to Chu Yue.
He glanced in the direction of Chu Yue, and a smile unconsciously appeared on his lips.
"People grow up, but their habits never change."
Sleeping is still so good.
…
The next day, after Zhang Zheng's follow-up examination showed that he was fine, Chu Yue untied the clamp around her neck and put on the protective gear Lu Xinghe made for her.
With Aju's help, Lu Xinghe carefully helped Chu Yue up from the bed.
While helping her up, he also asked her how she felt, for fear of hurting her.
In fact, Chu Yue's neck fracture was not serious. After wearing the protective gear, it would not have much impact as long as he did not do strenuous activities. However, the location of the brain injury was dangerous, so more attention should be paid.
Her slightly fractured left arm no longer hurts. Just in case, Zhang Zheng fixed her left arm.
Chu Yue kept her neck still and turned sideways to look at Zhang Zheng.
"Master, can I go out for a walk?"
Zhang Zheng nodded, "Okay, but don't be exposed to the wind to avoid catching a cold."
If there is no obvious discomfort in the body, appropriate activities without being cold will help recovery.
Zhang Zheng knew this, and Chu Yue certainly knew it in her heart.
"Okay Master."
Chu Yue smiled and slowly stood up from the bed with the support of Lu Xinghe and A Ju.
When she first got up, her head felt dizzy and she almost couldn't stand. Fortunately, Lu Xinghe's quick eyes and hands quickly stabilized her body.
"How about it? If it doesn't work, don't show off. Let's take it slow. It's okay to sit in the room for a while."
"After lying down for so many days, it is normal to feel a little dizzy when you get up. If you feel uncomfortable, you can sit down first and then get up and move around."
Zhang Zheng said on the side.
Chu Yue's head moved slightly.
"It's okay, I can do it." She turned sideways and said, "Ah Ju, you can go about your own business first, I can do it."
"Then Princess, be careful."
After Aju finished speaking, she slowly let go of the hands holding her. Seeing that Chu Yue was really okay, she exited the room.
Lu Xinghe grabbed Chu Yue's arm with one hand, and hugged Chu Yue's waist tightly with the other hand, almost transferring her entire body strength to his arms.
Chu Yue was a little helpless.
"Mr., my leg is not injured, you don't need to be so nervous."
Only then did Lu Xinghe relax his hand a little.
“If you find it difficult, don’t try to push yourself.”
Chu Yue hummed, then walked out with her neck stiffened.
Lu Xinghe supported Chu Yue with one hand, and quickly pulled a thin cloak from the shelf nearby with the other hand and put it on her body.
After leaving the room, Chu Yue looked at the scenery outside, took a deep breath, and felt very good for a moment.
“I didn’t expect Lingwu Villa to have such a beautiful scenery!”
The small courtyard she was in was not big. There was a grassland in front of the house. The grass was paved with bluestones and extended to the courtyard gate. The entire courtyard was surrounded by thick wood as railings. Outside the fence was a steep cliff.
There are also various small wild flowers growing around the yard, and the mountains beyond the cliff are shrouded in clouds and mist, which makes it look like a dream and is very spectacular.
Lu Xinghe glanced in her direction and knew she liked it here.
"like?"
Chu Yue hummed, took two steps forward, walked down the steps in front of the house, came to the courtyard, stood by the fence and looked into the distance.
The view is as wide as her current state of mind.
Standing here now, I feel like I am surviving a disaster.
"Ms. sir."
"What's wrong?"
Chu Yue glanced sideways at him with a smile, and then focused her gaze on the mountains in front of her again.
"I believe that one day, you will reach where you want to be step by step, and then you will see the mountains and the small mountains at a glance."
Looking at the rosy little girl next to him, Lu Xinghe felt a little unable to take his eyes away.
He swore silently in his heart.
From now on, I must protect her, the smile on her face, the light in her eyes, and the softness in her heart.
Pursing his lips, Lu Xinghe nodded.
"Yeah, I believe it too."
