Chapter 489 Although it is bitter, it is also sweet
In another room in Dali Temple, Chu Tiankuo sat on the edge of the bed, holding a medicine bowl in his hand. It was a bowl of black, unspeakable smell of strange herbs, an unknown liquid that would make the tongue bitter for a while when drunk.
That liquid was the medicine that Chu Aofei grabbed according to the prescription prescribed by Li Chourong. It was Lu Caier who boiled it herself. Although it is bitter, it is full of the affection of everyone.
Shui Wei has always been very disgusted with medicine, the color is like charcoal, but it exudes a burst of medicinal smell, so smoked that she doesn't even dare to look at it, let alone drink it. The bitter medicine made her frown and purse her lips instinctively.
Chu Tiankuo lowered his head, scooped a spoonful with a soup spoon, and slowly sent it to Shui Mai's mouth.
Shui Mai's gaze looked away, not looking at the medicine in the spoon, opening his mouth and drinking it all. She smelled the familiar scent of those around her, as if the smell overshadowed the smell of medicine.
Besides, he personally fed her medicine. This is something she couldn't even think about before. It made her feel like a dream, everything was so real and full of unreal feelings. It was rare for him to be so close to her over the years.
This realization made her extremely excited. The medicinal juice in the mouth did not have the unbearable bitter taste as expected, but had a faint aroma.
The medicine was still bitter, but in her mouth, it became sweet.
Chu Tiankuo fed the medicine in the bowl to Shui Mai one spoonful after another.
Shui Wei opened his mouth and slowly swallowed all the medicinal juice spoonful, spoonful by spoonful. Her eyes wandered around, and she saw candlelight shining in the room. Under the bright candlelight, Chu Tiankuo sat on the edge of the bed, lowered his head, and scooped a spoonful of medicine from the bowl. The medicine was still a little hot, and he blew carefully on the medicine in the spoon.
Looking over from the perspective of the water vein, I can only see his side face and indifferent expression, and I can't see what kind of mood he is in at the moment.
It was really nice to be alone like that, and to be taken care of. But...... When Shui Mai thought of the incense of cigarettes, he felt like he was very sorry for her. The water pulsated and moved his body, and he wanted to sit up, but he was finally weak and unable to support himself.
She struggled to squeeze a trace of voice out of her throat: "Tiankuo, I'll do it myself." Her voice sounded hoarse and faint due to her physical weakness.
She blinked, as if trying to squeeze out a smile. She reached out to catch the bowl, but, due to the wound on her body, her hand struggled to reach into the air, and she fell to the bed in despair. All this affected the wounds on his body again, and the smile that he had managed to squeeze out with great pain turned into a strange appearance of baring his teeth.
"Huh? Lie down and don't move. Chu Tiankuo's voice was soft, and his eyes were full of concern when he looked at her.
There was a faint smile on his face. That smile looks so charming, with a warm power, like the sun in winter.
The water pulsated and tried to sit up. However, the upper body was still so stinging, and the part that was pierced by the nail was still a dull pain. This action brought out a sense of pain like a stormy wave. She couldn't help but let out a low groan, so she had to give up.
Chu Tiankuo felt very sorry for her, and said in a commanding tone: "Stay well, don't move!" ”
Shui Mai looked at him in surprise, and didn't react for a moment. He had hardly ever spoken to her in such a tone or with such an attitude. However, although these words were reproachful, they were full of care, which made her listen to them very well.
Her heart is beautiful and sweet. It felt as if she had just drunk not medicine, but sugar water. She couldn't help but fantasize about how nice it would be if he could treat her like this all the time!
As soon as these words came out, he couldn't help but be in a trance. On weekdays, he talks like this, talking to the cigarette. At this moment, I couldn't help but blurt out. Did he use the water veins as cigarettes? It embarrassed him.
In order to hide his embarrassment, he lowered his head, scooped the medicine with a soup spoon, and sent the medicine to Shuimai's mouth.
The smile on his lips was as bright as the sun, and he lowered his voice and said, "After drinking the medicine, sleep well, and the injury will heal quickly." I'll be here with you for the next few days. ”
The heartstrings of the water veins produce a kind of blissful tremor. He was with her, and she couldn't ask for it. However, these days, he has to accompany her, what about the cigarettes?
The heart is happy, but the mouth has its own consciousness. She said worriedly: "Cigarette ......"
Chu Tiankuo understood what she meant, and just replied lightly: "Don't worry, she's fine." There were others looking at her, and it was fine. ”
God knows, that's not what the water veins say. She was afraid of the smell of cigarettes, so she had a dislike with Chu Tiankuo. However, she was extremely weak at the moment, and every word she said took a lot of her strength.
After feeding the bowl of medicine with great difficulty, Chu Tiankuo took the silk handkerchief, wiped the corners of Shui Wei's mouth, and helped her wipe off the medicinal juice at the corners of her mouth.
I don't know if it's pain, or if it's due to physical weakness, or if it's caused by drinking hot medicinal soup, sweat broke out on Shuimai's body, and the sweat on his forehead was even more visible.
Chu Tiankuo frowned, took the silk handkerchief, and carefully helped her wipe the sweat off her forehead.
Of course, Chu Tiankuo couldn't wipe the sweat on Shui Vein's body. He didn't have a clairvoyant eye, so he didn't know that she was sweating. If he knew that she was sweating, he would wipe it for her. However, he won't do it himself, he will call Lan Ayayu to come.
Seeing Chu Tiankuo doing this for her, Shui Mai was very moved. But she also understood why he would do this to her. In the end, it's just because I feel guilty about her and want to make amends.
A soft ray of moonlight shines through the window and sprinkles on the windowsill, which is like silver-plated, and at this time, it is the dead of night, and it should be the time when thoughts are rushing.
Her train of thought gradually became clearer.
Perhaps, it was because she had been in a coma for a long time, and the fragility that she had been suppressed on weekdays was revealed and exposed in front of Chu Tiankuo. She knew that he was sympathetic to her, not out of love between men and women.
But what does it matter? She could tell that he was doing his best to be nice to her. What else does she want? No matter what his concern was, he cared about her, didn't he?
She sighed with relief as she thought so.
Hearing the sigh of the water vein, Chu Tiankuo raised his head and looked at her blankly. He was tormented. Watching the water vein suffer from pain, he lost his former vigor and optimistic attitude towards life. He only felt that he owed her too much.
Shui Wei didn't dare to look at Chu Tiankuo's eyes, so he had to close his eyes.
This closed her eyes, and she quickly fell asleep. That medicine seems to have a calming and analgesic effect. After a few moments, the effect of the medicine was working, and she fell into a deep sleep.
This time, she was free from the nightmare. In the dream, there is no cold, no darkness, no pain. There is warmth and light in the dream, so that the torment and pain she suffered will be repaid in the dream.
