Qiao Mu stared intently at his eyes that were filled with worry, and her heart tightened. She opened her mouth, but just as she was about to speak, she felt a burning pain in her throat.
“Uncle, have you been guarding this place all this time?” she asked softly, enduring the pain.
Hearing her hoarse voice, Li Yan quickly got up and carried her in his arms. He strode towards the bed and replied in a matter-of-fact tone, ” If I don’t watch over you, who do you want to watch over you? ”
Qiao Mu leaned her face against the man’s chest and caught a whiff of the faint smell of tobacco. She conveniently hooked her arms around his neck. ” Uncle, how long have I been asleep? ”
“I’ve been sleeping since I came back yesterday. It’s been 24 hours.” Li Yan’s tone was clear and indifferent. In the end, he added Qiao Mu’s familiar disdain.”You’re like a little pig. No matter how I wake you up, you won’t wake up. If it weren’t for the fact that you slept so unobediently, I would have thought .
At this point, Li Yan stopped talking forcefully. He did not want to reveal the panic that he had never felt before.
No matter how much he called her, no matter what he said to her, she ignored him, making him feel like he was about to lose her.
Li Yan pursed his lips and lowered his eyes to look at his slightly pale face. His expression turned colder and his tone was filled with warning.” Qiao Mu, you better remember that you belong to me. I won’t allow anything to happen to you. You better take good care of yourself! ‘
The man’s words were clearly overbearing with a trace of irrationality, but in Qiao Mu’s ears, there was a different kind of gentleness.
She didn’t know if she was crazy or not. Why did she feel that this man’s words with a cold face made her feel very considerate?
After Li Yan finished speaking, he saw the little thing in his arms blinking her big eyes and looking at him blankly with an ignorant expression.
Li Yan frowned and placed his large hand on her forehead. ” Has the fever not subsided yet? ”
He felt that her body temperature was normal and glanced at her. ” Your reaction is so slow. Is your brain fried? ” You’re not smart to begin with. If you become stupid again, you’ll really be incurable.”
Qiao Mu was speechless.
She had just thought that this man was very considerate, but why was he mocking her in the blink of an eye?
With a gulp, Qiao Mu’s stomach issued an emergency signal.
She blushed and rubbed her stomach in embarrassment.
Li Yan’s lips curled up. ” You still know how to be hungry? You’re not that stupid.
Qiao Mu pursed her lips. ” Uncle, you have to maintain a good mood when you’re sick. You’re always mocking me and saying things that hurt me. It’ll affect my recovery.
This little thing!
She was as shrewd as a little fox. How was she stupid?
She even knew how to use her current situation to pretend to be pitiful!
“Does your back hurt?” Li Yan asked helplessly. Can you go downstairs yourself?”
“No problem!” Qiao Mu quickly stood up, but because she moved too quickly, she tore her wound and felt a burst of pain.
Li Yan was staring at her. She was in so much pain that she wanted to grimace. She did not want him to notice, so she could only endure it.
However, no matter how nonchalant she pretended to be, a certain man still saw through her thoughts at a glance and his expression changed.
Qiao Mu smiled awkwardly. ” Uncle, I’ll be careful. ”
“Stop for two seconds with every step you take and go downstairs in five minutes!”
Qiao Mu was speechless. It can’t be like this, right?
Qiao Mu had just taken two steps when she turned around and saw that the man did not follow her. She asked in confusion, “”Aren’t you going downstairs?”
“I’ll be down in a while.” Li Yan said as he walked towards the bathroom.
In the past 24 hours, he did not dare to leave her side except for going to the bathroom. When she woke up, he could change his dirty clothes and wash them..
