"Because I said that he is a male and sleeps outside." A low voice came from the house. He raised his finger and lit the lights in the house at the same time...
Su Tong was startled by the familiar voice and quickly turned around, just in time to meet Xuanyuan Hao's eyes that were half-smiling.
He's been sitting in the dark waiting for her?
Su Tong suddenly felt like "being caught red-handed", but when she thought about it carefully, she felt something was wrong, for example -
"Can you get out of bed?" Su Tong asked blankly, pointing at Xuanyuan Hao, looking him up and down.
His face was a little pale, but he was no longer as weak as he had seen during the day. If he hadn't looked confidently, he wouldn't have been able to tell that he was still seriously injured and had vomited blood during the day.
"Yes." Xuanyuan Hao responded and continued to play with the teacup on the table. He looked calm and relaxed, but his muffled voice revealed the fact that he was angry, "I adjusted my breath for half a day and recovered.
Quite a few, I was thinking of coming over to report the good news to the princess, but I didn’t expect... the princess made me wait so easily!"
His deliberately long voice made Su Tong feel a twinge of guilt - she didn't expect that basket after basket of Cheng Yaojin would come out on the way today, and she wouldn't come back until midnight!
"Hehe..." Grinning, Su Tong smiled awkwardly and moved towards the room little by little, echoing in a doggy manner, "You recovered too quickly! Good news, good news indeed.
!”
Xuanyuan Hao saw her intention and naturally did not give her a chance to escape. The moment she entered the inner room, he directly asked the subject: "Where have you been?"
Su Tong's figure couldn't help but pause there, unable to escape.
"This..." Su Tong stammered for a long time, and did not think of an alternative reason. She simply walked up and put the hibiscus in her hand on the table in front of Xuanyuan Hao, telling the truth, "
I'm going to pick flowers."
"I can see that." Xuanyuan Hao smiled meaningfully, and he could naturally see the appearance. Holding one of the flower branches, he knocked her on the head, "It's just that you went out to pick flowers in the middle of the night?"
"I like picking flowers in the middle of the night, don't I?" Su Tong snorted and spoke arrogantly, not wanting to explain more.
Because the statement that "Hibiscus flowers that have not been exposed to sunlight can cure internal injuries" is from a book after all, and she has not yet put it into practice. If it doesn't work, it would be embarrassing for her to say it now!
And, the most important thing is - if Xuanyuan Hao knew that she went out to pick hibiscus flowers in the middle of the night just to hurt him, it would show how... how she would risk everything for him!
"Your hobbies... are really weird!" Xuanyuan Hao raised his eyebrows, considered for a long time, and finally thought of a suitable adjective, and spoke sarcastically.
No normal person would believe such rhetoric.
Although he didn't believe it, because he was Xuanyuan Hao, he knew that she didn't want to say anything, so he wouldn't force her anymore.
Seeing him sighing and no longer asking any more questions, Su Tong couldn't help but exhaled, grabbed a chair and sat down opposite him, and then changed the subject: "Why do you adjust your breathing to look better than eating?"
Is the medicine still effective after two days?”
If she had known that his recovery ability was so strong, she wouldn't have had to work so hard to pick hibiscus flowers!
"It's not a serious injury." Xuanyuan Hao responded, obviously not wanting to say more on this topic.
After all, this topic also involves his martial arts background and his other identity... It's not that he wants to hide it from her, but he really doesn't know where to start?
Besides, that identity was completely different from his identity as a prince. He was afraid that if she knew about it, she would... not be able to accept it.
"That's good..." Su Tong was not stupid, and she could naturally hear his avoidance, but she did not continue to ask, she simply lowered her head and quietly started to pick the petals from the heart of the hibiscus flower.
The petals here are the purest ones that have never been exposed to sunlight. Even if Xuanyuan Hao doesn't need them, she still has to collect them. After all, she spent half her life to get them back!
"You came back from picking flowers in the middle of the night just to destroy them like this?" Xuanyuan Hao looked aside for a long time, and finally couldn't help but ask, and reminded him by the way, "It's already past midnight, and you still don't sleep?"
"Can't sleep..." Su Tong sighed dully.
She was telling the truth. She had just crawled out of dire straits and had an "excellent" night. Her heart jumped several times and was overloaded...
How could you possibly fall asleep on such a night with such high levels of excitement?
"Okay, if you don't want to sleep, I am going to sleep." Nodding, Xuanyuan Hao said casually, and then stood up, with a rogue smile on his face, and then walked into the inner room of Su Tong's room.
"Hey!" Su Tong reacted suddenly, stood up and rushed forward, grabbing his sleeve, "You...you sleep here, where should I sleep?"
Her room only has one bed!
"Su Tong..." Xuanyuan Hao glanced at her and said jokingly, "I haven't spent the night in your room for a long time. Don't you be afraid that when you go to the imperial mausoleum to pay homage to your ancestors in the next few days, you will meet with other noble ladies in the palace.
Did you lose face when we bumped into each other?"
The implication is - Aren't you afraid that outsiders will think you are a princess who has fallen out of favor? Therefore, they despise you?
Gritting his teeth, gritting his teeth again, Su Tong wanted to kick him out, but in the end he held back: face! Although she is careless and informal, in such a big occasion, who doesn't want to save some character and face?
?
Could it be that on that day, a group of feudal women would still be pointing fingers at her?
"Then where should I sleep?" Su Tong's hands relaxed unconsciously, and Su Tong acquiesced to him staying in the room, but she still asked dully.
Should I hang a chair? Or sleep on a soft couch? Or lie on the floor?
"This is a big bed..." Xuanyuan Hao hummed and pointed towards the bed curtain, a flash of light flashed in his dark eyes, "You can also come up and sleep together..."
