Chapter 383: Attentive Care (2/2)

Bai Luochu wanted to ask him a question, but he disappeared before she could. She helplessly lowered her head and muttered to herself, “Why is he behaving less and less like the First Prince of the Cloud Water Nation?”

Qin Feng didn’t know what Pei Rumo was up to and he was shocked at the sudden request. “What does Your First Highness want those items for? I might be able to make some suggestions if you tell me your intentions.”

“Luo Chu is temporarily blind and she doesn’t want people to take care of her. I want to create a soft carpet so that she won’t be hurt when she falls. As for the bells and bull tendons, I am going to surround her candles so that she doesn’t burn herself when walking about. Money isn’t a problem.” Pei Rumo’s expression didn’t change and it seemed as though lying didn’t affect him in the slightest. He did it as easily as breathing.

Qin Feng saw that he was trying to take care of his mistress and he left to gather the items in an instant. He even instructed Ying Lan to avoid getting into a conflict with Pei Rumo before passing on the job of taking care of the inn to him.

If Ying Lan hated Pei Rumo for scamming Bai Luochu to go on the campaign, his hatred decreased by a huge amount after hearing that he was trying to care for her. Even though he hated Pei Rumo a little less, he still felt a bitter taste in his mouth.

Evening fell by the time Qin Feng returned with the goods. Pei Rumo pulled the servant girl and Qin Feng as they worked their hardest to fix up Pei Rumo’s items. By the time they were done, night had already fallen.

Seeing that it was already late, Qin Feng prepared dinner and personally brought it up for everyone. Pei Rumo helped Bai Luochu off the bed and when her feet touched the cotton-padded ground, she felt a little uncomfortable. She almost fell but luckily, Pei Rumo was standing beside her. He pulled her into his embrace before letting her walk on her own. After several tries, she finally managed to make her way to the table.

Pei Rumo stood beside her silently as he prepared to catch her the moment she fell. After all, he couldn’t hold on to her without letting go. With her stubborn and obstinate personality, she definitely wanted to rely on herself. This was the main reason he wanted to craft a cotton carpet for her. He didn’t want her to fall on the cold hard ground. She would also be able to understand the concern he had for her.

When she finally arrived at the table, she realized that the table and chairs were padded with cotton. She knew that Pei Rumo was definitely the person behind it. “You did this?”

Pei Rumo hesitated for a moment and finally replied, “The innkeeper and the servant girl were the main workers. I’m not used to doing such things and didn’t help much.”

Bai Luochu knew that Pei Rumo was the person who came up with all the ideas and he didn’t want to claim all the credit for himself as he didn’t want her impression of him to change. She couldn’t deny that she wasn’t moved by his actions. After all, this was probably the first time Pei Rumo thought of other people other than himself.

“Thanks.” Even though she couldn’t see, she turned to face Pei Rumo and thanked him.
