”Why do you think?” Sun Chun immediately reacted and followed up to ask.
”Right, we haven't eaten yet. I need to hurry up and do it.” Xia Li said as he pushed Sun Chun away, returning back to the courtyard in embarrassment.
Grandma Wang patted her head, ”This girl is really angry …” It can't be that she's been messing around with you for three days and three nights, right? ”
”Elder, you should head back earlier. Xia Li is my wife after all. She won't do anything to me.” At this time, Sun Chun's heart was a little gloomy, he could guess what this little girl was thinking about.
He had temporarily used her as a barrier to prevent other girls from getting close to him. He just hadn't thought that he would be able to harm her.
”Alright, then you be careful, try to coax her.” Grandma said a few words in embarrassment before returning to her own courtyard.
In the kitchen, Xia Li's hands were busy everywhere, but the bowl seemed to have the intention of going against Xia Li. It slipped out of her hands and her heart directly smashed into the ground, shattering into pieces.
Xia Li was startled for a moment, he crouched down and picked up the broken pieces of porcelain, then accidentally cut his finger on the porcelain pieces. Blood droplets dripped onto the pure white porcelain pieces, like a blooming madora flower, dazzling and piercing, accompanied by pain.
”There's no need to mistreat yourself like that even if you're angry. Give me your hand.” Hearing movement, Sun Chun walked in with big strides, holding Xia Li's hand, sucking on the blood droplet on her finger, with a focused expression, and a face full of worry.
Until Xia Li's finger stopped bleeding, Sun Chun finally let go of her hand and used water to clean her wound. He then remembered that Xia Li in front of him was also a doctor, so he asked her about it.
”You obviously have painkillers, but why aren't you taking them?”
”I still like to keep this ability to sense pain. This way, I will be able to remember and value my own life more.”
As he spoke, Xia Li glanced at the kitchen basket and took out a somewhat withered medicinal herb that had the effect of soothing pain and quenching flames, and handed it over to Sun Chun.
”Crush it, apply it to your wounds, tear off a piece of cloth from your clothes, and tie it up.”
”Yesterday, I mentioned you as my wife in front of those girls. Actually …” While helping Xia Li bandage his wounds, Sun Chun carefully explained, but he was still interrupted by Xia Li.
”Since you said that you are my hubby in front of outsiders, then you have to fulfill the corresponding responsibilities, right?” Xia Li's eyes revealed a hint of interest, as he leaned towards Sun Chun, pulled his arm, and took the initiative to ask.
”Mm, you're right.” For a moment of carelessness, Sun Chun was shocked.
He tore a piece of cloth from his robes and bandaged Xia Li's wound before helping her stand up.
”In the future, I will call you hubby. As time passes, outsiders will naturally not be able to see any clues, and we will have to act as a set. How about we share a room together?” Xia Li pulled Sun Chun's hand and asked.
”Isn't that too sudden? After all, you're still a girl, so it's not appropriate. ”
Sun Chun's heart was thumping hard. When Xia Li got closer, he took a step back.
He had almost forgotten that this girl had always been very proactive. How could she let go of such a good opportunity?
Just at that moment, Lee's suddenly came in from the outer room, and said to the two of them: ”Let me cook, you guys help me look at Qing Er, he was completely terrified, crying and making a ruckus, it's my fault, he didn't look at the good kids, I really am sorry for making him suffer.”
Lee's blamed himself and slapped his own face.
”Mother, what are you doing? Why are you making things difficult for yourself? Go cook. Xia Li let go of Sun Chun's hand and comforted Lee's in front of him.
”My girl, take a good look at Qing Er, he's in his room right now.” Lee's said as her eyes turned red and she choked with sobs.
Taking advantage of the conversation between Lee's and Xia Li, Sun Chun went to the kitchen in advance to clean up the broken porcelain pieces that were scattered on the ground. He cleaned up the kitchen and made room for Lee's to cook.
Xia Li listened to Lee's and went to the bedroom where they were staying. Xia Qing was hiding in a corner with her face pale white and snot running all over her face.
”Elder sister, I'm afraid, they …” All of them are bullying me. ” When Xia Qing saw Xia Li, he cried loudly, but did not dare to move even an inch.
Xia Li took out a handkerchief from his chest, wiped the dirt off his face, and held him in his arms, silently accompanying him.
Sun Chun stood at the door, looking at the siblings who were hugging each other tightly, his heart was moved.
He did not go over to disturb the two. Instead, he leaned against the door frame, resting his chin on his hands as he waited silently.
Xia Li coaxed Xia Qing for a long time, and only then did the crying little guy fall asleep in his elder sister's arms.
Xia Li took a deep breath, and gently hugged Xia Qing onto the bed. Right at this moment, a commotion sounded out from outside the door, causing Xia Qing, who had just fallen asleep, to wake up from shock once again, and hid in Xia Li's embrace.
”Elder sister, what is that sound? ”I'm scared!”
”Xia Qing, don't be afraid. With big sister here, go to sleep!” Xia Li gently consoled Xia Qing who was like a frightened rabbit, frowned, and was about to look out, but then heard a burst of pig-like howling sound, immediately causing Xia Qing to struggle even more, and directly struggle out of Xia Li's grasp, hiding under the bed, making Xia Li's heart hurt even more.
Outside the courtyard, the Lee's was so scared that he closed the kitchen door, not daring to come out.
scarred man who had just been taught a lesson by Sun Chun had brought over a dozen thugs this time, wanting to take revenge for his personal grudge which had been taught a lesson by Sun Chun in the morning.
