However, thinking that Xiao Su's body temperature was lower than that of an ordinary person, Lu Jinniang rubbed himself in a comfortable position in his arms, ”Alright then, warm up a little more, rest well, then go and take a bath. Your body is not comfortable with sweat, and you'll easily catch cold.”

Xiao Su was at a loss whether to laugh or cry as she held her in his arms. She wasn't sure if he should thank her for her occasional moe and cute hug, or if he should worry about someone taking advantage of her unknowingly.

Thinking of her skill in taking care of people, in case someone was as shameless as him (?) It wasn't impossible.

”It seems like A-Jin is very used to taking care of people. He doesn't panic, but he has a way to deal with things as well.”

It was warm in the north, and Xiao Su lived in the Fei Prefecture all year round. Liang Jing's mansion was built on the spur of the moment, and many things, including the warmth of the land, were not fully repaired.

Warmth didn't relieve his pain. It only made him more comfortable when he was in pain. He didn't remind anyone of the warmth, and his hands were rough and he couldn't remember.

Lu JinNian, on the other hand, came up with the idea of heating the house with hot water and was very concerned about his feelings. Xiao Su expressed that he was very happy, but at the same time felt a little sour — Who did A-Jin learn this technique from? The experience gained while taking care of someone!

”Tell me,” Lu JinNian didn't notice the strangeness in Xiao Su's tone and assumed it was because he hadn't recovered his energy and his body was still weak. He pointed at the pot of steaming water and said, ”This method was taught to me by a person a long, long time ago.”

Lu JinNian narrowed his eyes as he thought. This was truly a long, long time ago. A long time ago, it had already happened in his previous life …

Xiao Su, ”...” There was someone else!

Her phoenix-like eyes sparkled as she asked, ”Who is that person?” Could he silence them!?

”I don't know,” Lu JinNian paused before adding, ”It's been too long, I can't even remember his appearance.”

A very long time ago was a very flimsy description. It did not pinpoint the exact time, and it sounded as if it was illusory, as it was forgotten because it was not very important, but it also had a rich feeling of age, as if it was unintentional because it could not bear to open it.

Xiao Su sighed. This person must be very important to Lu JinNian. At least in her heart, this person was much more important than him.

”Then, where did that person go?” Since it had happened a long time ago, even though it was important, it should mean that it was no longer by Lu JinNian's side.

”He … He probably disappeared like fireworks.” Lu Jinnian struggled free from Xiao Su's embrace, straightened up and said in a melodious tone, ”I feel that you are very similar to him. You can serve for life without regrets, and you even feel that only death is the proper end.”

In his previous life, Lu had also dedicated his life to protecting his family and country, but that was more out of a sense of duty than a lifelong commitment, which was solely due to the meaning of his own life.

Almost everyone loved their home, but this was the bottom line of people, not the whole. It did not affect them to pursue the life they loved without touching the bottom line.

And Xiao Su was like that person, she treated one matter as the whole of her life.

”I don't quite understand your thoughts, so I don't understand you, but I still want to try and understand you. How about starting from your illness, the poison in your body, and the fact that you only have five years left to live?”
