I don't know how long this unbearable time passed. It wasn't until Gu Yixi put down the cotton swab that the almost suffocating embarrassing atmosphere eased slightly.
Gu Erhe was about to get up immediately, but was pressed on his shoulder by a soft little hand with the scent of medicine.
"Don't move, wait for the medicine to be absorbed!"
"……oh!"
Gu Er and Lao Laobao lay down.
The people of Ermai, who had just experienced a big battle, were now extremely tired. The continuous days of jungle life had left everyone's nerves in a tense state.
Now with Wen Ranran, Gu Qiandao and others watching over them, most people finally fell asleep with peace of mind.
Gu Yixi wasn't sleepy at the moment. After taking the medicine, she sat there and sorted out her medicine box, thinking about which spare medicines she didn't have enough and had to take the time to go out and prepare some.
"What...how is that boy Gu Erping doing?"
Gu Erhe was not sleepy at the moment. The burning wound on his back was now being treated. The refreshing and cooling ointment brought some numbness and pain, which made him unable to sleep.
"It's okay, I just fainted from the force of exhaustion. I'm not injured. I gave him a tranquilizing pill and I'll be fine after two days of rest!"
Gu Yixi lowered her eyelashes and whispered.
The atmosphere suddenly fell into an awkward silence again.
"You... I thought you wouldn't come this time... How is your injury?" Gu Erhe lay on his stomach, dragging his chin with his arm, looking up at the delicate girl in front of him.
"Much better...Thank you for the medicinal materials you sent!" Gu Yixi said dullly.
Gu Erhe smiled and looked up at the jade-like forearm exposed by the girl as she packed the medicine box. The hideous scars on the forearm showed how much damage the little girl in front of her had suffered.
Fortunately, these scars have now scabbed over, and some are even falling off.
Gu Erhe's heart softened subconsciously.
He couldn't help but touch the scar on Gu Yixi's arm with his fingertips. The unfamiliar and strange touch made Gu Yixi's arm shrink involuntarily.
Gu Erhe sighed and said in a hoarse voice: "I should have protected you if I had known this!"
He was not aware of it when he was poisoned, but at that time, the first line and the second line were not very familiar with each other. Therefore, he subconsciously felt that it was the best choice for such a little girl to stay in the first line.
Unexpectedly, the initial confusion resulted in harm to the little girl.
Gu Erhe did not move, but took out a jade box that looked three feet wide from his storage ring.
"This... is for you!"
Gu Yixi was stunned, and opened the jade box. A sapling that looked all red lay tightly inside. The sapling was red all over, and there seemed to be dark red blood flowing inside, and the whole thing was emitting a dense light.
"This is... this is the sapling of the serum tree that the red-tailed scorpion has been guarding... That day, it was because of this that the red-tailed scorpion was chasing after it... I finally got it with great difficulty. I give it to you!"
Gu Yixi was slightly stunned, but finally put these things away carefully.
"I'll put it away!"
Gu Yixi pursed her lips, "Including you!"
Gu Erhe: "..."
What does including him mean? It means... including him?
But under this panic situation, what should he say?
"Yeah...yeah!" Gu Erhe nodded.
Gu Yixi smiled and looked at Wen Ranran who gave her a thumbs up at the door. She pursed her lips and felt a joy that she had never felt before in her heart.
After a while, Gu Erhe couldn't bear the effects of the medicine and fell asleep first.
The people in Wumai were all well rested. At this moment, everyone was obviously looking at Gu Yixi with gossipy expressions on their faces.
Gu Qiandao sighed and lamented that people should not be judged by their appearance.
"I always thought this little girl was cute, not as well-behaved as Wu Yan, but at least as cute as Jun Meng... I didn't expect her behavior to be so queenly?!"
Xia Liyuan curled his lips, "This is the legendary lolita body and royal sister's heart! What do you know! You must know that among the men who have been among thousands of flowers, this is the one that is the most irresistible!"
Wen Ranran raised her eyebrows, "You seem to understand it very well? Could it be that you have also been among thousands of flowers?"
