Traveling through ancient times: daily life on the run

Chapter 144 What are you planning?



Chapter 144 What are you planning?

Luo Yu was drowsy, waking up and falling asleep again, and falling asleep and waking up again.

In a daze, she felt someone replacing the wet wipes on her forehead.

Seeing that she had woken up, Master Murong called out, "Miss Bai?"

She didn't respond.

He called out again: "Miss Jiang?"

Still no response.

"Miss Luo Yu?"

If Luo Yu had the strength, he would want to beat him.

Traveling through ancient times, the people around me are more cunning and shrewd than each other.

If she doesn't have any skills, she will die. If she counts, she has died twice!

Alas, continue to pretend to be asleep.

But my stomach growled twice.

She opened her eyes and saw Murong's handsome, slightly haggard face.

"Miss Bai, this bowl of meat porridge was specially prepared for you by Doctor Liu. He said drinking it will help you recover faster."

Young Master Murong was a really nice man. Without expecting anything in return, he helped her up and leaned her against the headboard, then placed a blanket behind her, very considerately.

He took care of everything and even fed her porridge himself.

Luo Yu was hungry and thirsty. Just as he was about to take a sip of the hot porridge, he felt his lips burned. This porridge must have just come out of the pot, right?

No matter how thoughtful Master Murong was, he was still a man and not very good at taking care of others. When he saw Luo Yu retract his head, he was stunned for a moment. When he realized what was going on, he wanted to blow hot air at him with his mouth. Luo Yu tried hard to open his mouth and made a weak sound.

"Don't blow, there's saliva."

Master Murong: "..."

It seems that the injury is not serious enough and the hunger is not severe enough.

Luo Yu didn't care what he thought. Now her body resistance was poor and she had a persistent low-grade fever. She guessed it was a sequelae of the wound infection. She just wanted to eat more clean food to enhance her resistance.

Master Murong said nothing, put the hot porridge on the table beside him, and blew it cool with a fan.

Luo Yu tilted her head and stared at Master Murong, and suddenly she felt guilty. She had dragged him into trouble and used him many times, but this man was kind and did not hold a grudge.

If she recovers her health this time, she will definitely find a way to repay him in the future.

As a person, you can't just owe money without repaying it.

Murong noticed her fiery gaze from the corner of his eye, raised his brows and asked, "What are you thinking about, Miss Luo Yu?"

"You saved me. I'm sure the assassins the Queen sends will think you know the secret of why I'm being hunted. They might put you on a blacklist to be killed."

"Since the girl and I are on the same boat, this is my fate."

"After we cross the Wanjiang River, we can go our separate ways. I won't force you, and I don't want to implicate you any further."

"Okay, we'll talk about it later."

Master Murong brought the cold meat porridge to Luo Yu and continued to feed her.

He was touched by her genuine concern for him despite being injured, but he pretended to be calm, not wanting her to realize that he didn't particularly want to leave.

She didn't force him to marry her, or was she afraid that he would be implicated?

If you miss this kind of affectionate and righteous woman, you will never meet her again. Although she was cheated a lot, she must have been helpless.

Luo Yu drank a mouthful of porridge and looked at his face standing in front of him. Although his face was expressionless, it felt a little strange.

"Master Murong, I can do it myself!"

"Your shoulder is injured, don't force it."

He tried to keep his words brief so that she wouldn't be able to read his thoughts.

"Thank you. It's all Miss Qin's fault. She insisted on dragging you along to pretend to be my husband and take care of me. I'm so sorry."

Luo Yu thought he was unwilling. Ancient scholars should be very wary of improper relationships between men and women. But Qin Bingrui went out of his way to make things difficult for him.

No one knew about it in the woods before, so they just turned a blind eye. But now it happened in front of everyone, and Master Murong must be unhappy.

"It's okay. If you think it will damage your reputation, that's fine."

After he finished speaking, he was stunned for a moment.

Luo Yu didn't understand: "What can I do?"

"Nothing, don't think too much."

Luo Yu finished a bowl of porridge and continued to rest with her eyes closed. How could she possibly think too much? What did her reputation mean to her? She was already a woman who had given birth. If Master Murong knew the truth, he would probably be too late to hide from her.

Thinking of this, a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of her lips.

Murong also smiled. He must have been bewitched. This woman had a suspicious identity and a cunning personality, so he didn't dare to have any thoughts about her.

The next day, Qin Bingrui saw off King Ning and rushed back to the town.

It just so happened that the group from the Imperial City Bureau rested in the town for one night.

They were about to leave the town when they saw Miss Qin and everyone woke up.

"Miss Qin, I helped you solve yesterday's problem. You should tell me the location of the White Tiger."

"Oh, if you hadn't told me, I would have forgotten. My sister was shot by an arrow and her life is in danger. How could I care about Baihu?"

"Miss Qin wants to renege on the debt?"

"Of course not. If you can afford to wait, just wait until my sister is well again!"

Qin Bingrui acted like a rogue and scoundrel, staring at Ye Yucheng with his beautiful peach blossom eyes, a smile on his face.

There were a few fewer people among Ye Yucheng's men, probably because they were injured in the fight with the men in black. Qin Bingrui knew that he would definitely ask about Sister Luo Yu in the clinic.

Fortunately, Sister Luo Yu was left in the clinic, so they probably wouldn't have guessed that Bai Hu had been sent away by him.

"Miss Qin didn't come home last night. Where did she go?"

Damn, this guy named Ye is not stupid!

"Where I go is none of your business. Sir, why are you so concerned about my whereabouts? Do you have any ulterior motive?"

Ye Yucheng: "..."

She was clearly dressed as a man, but now she was being told to dress like a woman. No wonder Yan Xuan and He Yuan were being tormented by these two girls.

"Since the young lady is back, I will wait here for the young lady Bai you mentioned, or the young lady Jiang or the young lady Qin, to recover before I leave."

"..."

I didn't expect this guy to have such a good memory.

Ye Yucheng even began to suspect that the person carried away from the capital by the white tiger must be one of the two girls. Add to that Miss Bai's numerous unknown identities, and the fact that she could speak animal language as Miss Qin had said, and it was certain that the person carried away by the white tiger must be Miss Bai.

He rushed several seriously injured guards back to the clinic last night. Doctor Liu specially arranged for them to be treated in the inn, saying that there were female patients resting in the back wing and it was not convenient to treat men in the back wing.

Doctor Liu said that the woman's surname was Bai. He went to check on her in the middle of the night. He didn't see Miss Qin, but found a man guarding the woman. The two of them were fighting, but neither could determine the winner.

Miss Qin did not come back all night. Is she hiding something?

Seeing that Miss Qin ignored him, he arranged for his men to stay at an inn near the clinic. There were still several seriously injured people receiving treatment, so they could just wait together.

Doctor Liu was incredibly busy. He'd made as much in the past two days as he'd made in years. Wasn't life a bit rough lately? It was all arrow wounds and knife wounds. As an old man, he didn't want to know too many secrets.

When Luo Yu woke up, he found that Master Murong was sitting upright on a chair beside the bed with his eyes closed, and the sword was within his reach.

Someone came to investigate last night, and he had a fight with that person. Luo Yu heard it all clearly.

It should not be someone sent by the Queen. After all, he is alone. The Queen's people will not come out alone to gather information, but will directly kill people to silence them.

Murong was extremely alert. He felt someone staring at him and immediately opened his eyes.

When he met Luo Yu's eyes, he immediately stood up to pour tea.

"Are you hungry? I'll ask someone to prepare breakfast and bring it to you later."

Luo Yu shook his head and said gently, "You haven't slept all night, have you? Why don't you go and get some rest first? I'm feeling refreshed now. If anyone else comes, I'll call you."

"Okay, I'll go to the next room for a nap. You can have some tea first."

Luo Yu stood up, took the teacup, raised his eyes and watched him walk to the table and continue pouring tea for himself.

"Master Murong, you are so kind to me, don't you have any ulterior motives?"

Murong almost spit out the tea that had just entered his mouth.
