When he learned that the heroine blocked Xiao Yinhan's arrow and was injured and fell into coma, Jiang Tang was surprised and then happy:

"Wow, the heroine has learned that 'if you want something, you have to work hard to get it', so is it still far away from the hero and heroine to reunite and get back together?"

The system remained silent and did not speak.

It is because of the host's attitude all the time that it is impossible for her to judge how she feels about the male protagonist and whether she has really been attracted to him.

She is really, too indifferent.

-

Xiao Yichen hurried over as soon as he got the news. Since Bai Muzhi arrived, he came as often as he went to work.

When he came to the familiar courtyard, he saw a row of tall and serious guards at the door surrounding the courtyard with knives. Such a posture made his heart skip a beat.

"How is the situation? Is Miss Bai's injury serious?"

As soon as Xiao Yichen walked into the room, he saw a familiar and tall figure standing there. He stopped suddenly: "Fourth brother!"

Xiao Yinhan turned around, his chest was stained with blood, and Xiao Yichen's pupils shrank: "Are you injured?"

Xiao Yinhan shook his head: "It's not me."

The guard on the side hurriedly stepped forward and explained the situation. After hearing this, Xiao Yichen's expression became a little strange.

He just wanted to say, with Fourth Brother here, how could she get hurt? It turned out to be...

"What did the doctor say? Her injuries..."

"Don't worry, Your Highness, Miss Bai hurt her shoulder, not the vital part. The doctor is applying medicine and bandaging to her."

These words did not appease him, but after learning that his life was not in danger, the nervousness he felt along the way finally eased a little.

But……

"Fourth brother, now that you have seen it with your own eyes and experienced it yourself, you should know that Miss Bai treats you..."

Before Xiao Yichen could say the words "deep love and profound justice", he was coldly interrupted by the man in front of him:

"Bai Muzhi has done a great job in protecting you, and I will never be short of grateful to you."

This simple sentence made Xiao Yichen confused, and his expression showed a bit of confusion.

Why does he think that Fourth Brother's words are deliberately to avoid suspicion?

But he quickly shook his head, no, considering the relationship between the fourth brother and her, and she was still lying on the bed, there was no way he should have said such callous words.

"Fourth brother, are you kidding?" Xiao Yichen's face turned a little pale and he reminded him pointedly: "Miss Bai is definitely not someone who cares about gratitude."

Xiao Yinhan knew that what he said was true.

In fact, when he saw Bai Muzhi rushing to save him, his heart was as calm as a pool of stagnant water, without any ripples.

Even if he saw her hit by an arrow and falling down, he would not be affected at all. Looking at her was no different from looking at an ordinary guard who was rescuing a driver.

He has no sense of "friendship" or "gratitude" at all.

Even while waiting for the imperial doctor's diagnosis and treatment, he tried to recall his "past" with her, but found that it was like looking at flowers in the fog, all emotions were gone, and he was indifferent and seemed to be reading other people's stories.

After a while, the imperial doctor came out of the room.

Xiao Yichen's gun went up first: "Doctor Gao, how is Miss Bai's injury?"

When Xiao Yinhan heard the imperial doctor say, "It's nothing serious, just take good care of your injuries," Xiao Yinhan turned around and prepared his strength.

Xiao Yichen was just about to talk to him and was discussing whether he could stay. When he turned around and saw the man leaving, he was startled: "Fourth brother, where are you going?"

After receiving the man's cold and sharp eyes, he changed his words: "I mean, Miss Bai hasn't woken up yet, why don't you wait?"

Xiao Yinhan looked back: "I am not a doctor."

The implication is: If he is not a doctor, there is no use staying here.

Considering his status, these words are indeed blameless, but considering their relationship, these words are too cold-blooded.

Looking at the man's cold face that didn't look fake, even he himself didn't know what to say.

Begging him to stay?

But Fourth Brother has never been the kind of person who is "begged"; but let him leave like this? That person will definitely be sad when he wakes up...

Fortunately, Xiao Yichen didn't hesitate for too long. The nervous voice of the maidservant came from the room: "Wake up, miss."

Then, a little girl in pink clothes ran out of the inner room. When she saw His Highness Prince Rong still standing in the room, the little girl's eyes lit up:

"Master, Miss Bai is awake and has been calling your name..."

One sentence made the person's blood boil. Xiao Yichen said without hesitation: "Fourth brother, go in and take a look. She was injured because of you!"

This sentence made everyone in the room who had nothing to do with him couldn't help but look at this man.

Yes, she is just a weak woman who is a guest, but she got injured trying to save you. Now she has passed out and keeps calling your name. Are you embarrassed not to see her?

Xiao Yichen met the man's cold and dark gaze with neither humility nor arrogance. In addition to worry and nervousness, there was also a faint rising anger in his heart.

Miss Bai has done this for you, how can you be so cold-blooded?

He was even prepared. If he really wanted to leave, he wouldn't mind having a fight with him!

But before Xiao Yichen could use this "method", the man had already walked in.

He felt relieved and followed.

The others naturally stayed outside and waited, but there was a hint of ambiguity in the glances they looked at each other:

Miss Bai actually blocked the arrow for the prince. What will the prince do?

Could it be that there is another lady in the palace?

-

Xiao Yinhan, who had already entered the inner room, naturally didn't know what his subordinates were thinking. As soon as he entered, he heard a thin voice.

It really seemed like... calling his name.

He was not very happy, his face even turned colder, and he walked to the woman's window in a few steps.

"Xiao Yin, Han..."

Bai Muzhi opened her eyes, and her fair face turned frighteningly pale after being injured.

She strained to keep her eyes open until she could slowly see the person standing in front of the bed clearly. The corners of her dry and peeling mouth unconsciously formed a slight smile, and her voice was hoarse and weak: "You're here..."

Xiao Yichen came in one step behind and happened to hear these words. His forward steps stopped subconsciously. He looked at the back of the figure standing in front of the bed, pursed his lips slightly, and did not move forward.

He knew very well that the person the man wanted to see at this moment was not him.

"Well," Xiao Yinhan said, "Thank you for saving me today." Although it was not necessary at all.

"You're so good……"

"Do you remember what you said?"

Bai Muzhi's eyes were completely clear, and she couldn't bear to look away from the man's face. The ends of her eyes were slightly red: "Do you remember?"

Xiao Yinhan frowned. He had said so many things, but he didn't know what she was talking about.

So, only silence remained.

"You said you would protect me."

She looked at him and spoke word by word, and there seemed to be a twinkle in her eyes.

This sentence instantly made the man with a very good memory think of it——

About when he was eleven and she was nine, he lost her again after they had a fight.

When he found her again, she was injured and fell under a tree, crying and crying until his head hurt.

He tried to coax her slightly, but also because of guilt, he apologized to her: "It's my fault this time, I shouldn't have left you. The worst, the worst, I will protect you from now on..."

Thinking of this, the man's originally cold eyes seemed to soften a little, and he was not so harsh when he looked at her again:

"Remember."

A somewhat tender "remember" made Bai Muzhi's originally cold heart feel warm again as if it were wrapped in warm water.

Her eyes seemed to light up a bit, and she couldn't help but reach out to him: "Then you..."

"It's just a childhood joke, why take it seriously?"

He smiled and ruthlessly tore apart the gentle illusion at this moment: "I already have someone to protect. You have forgotten these words."

Bai Muzhi's smile froze on her face, and at that moment, something seemed to break.

Xiao Yinhan's answer was unexpected by no one. Even Xiao Yichen, who was following behind him and was nervous, was stunned.

Until the man turned around and left, passing him by: "Since you care about her so much, please stay and take care of her these few days."

After saying that, he left without giving his brother time to react, without any regrets.

I don't know if it was an illusion, but the moment he went out, he seemed to remember a subtle and suppressed cry behind him...

"He really... said that?"
