Chapter 142 Can You Do It
“No! Ye Lan! No!”
“The Rani wakes up. Your Royal Highness, the Rani wakes up!”
Su Muge only felt that the bones all over her body were broken and fallen apart. She was so uncomfortable that she couldn’t even frown.
Suddenly a figure entered the room. Before Su Muge could see his appearance, he had held her hand. His warm hands made her consciousness gradually clear.
His face was reflected in her eyes.
“Xia …” Xia Houmo?
Su Muge looked at the man in front of her with uncertainty. This man with a beard, red eyes and dark circles was really the King of Jin she knew?
“She finally wakes up. Come on. Let me see.” Guima walked into the room with a yawn and came to the bed.
Su Muge glanced at him. His appearance was no better than Xia Houmo, but he was forced.
After checking Su Muge’s pulse, Guima exhaled a sigh of relief secretly.
Fortunately, she woke up; otherwise, Xia Houmo would never let him go!
“Well, take a good rest and nourishment for recuperation…” He was so tired and sleepy. Finally, he could get a good sleep.
Su Muge was so weak that she fell asleep soon after waking up.
When she woke up again, it was already dark outside.
Xia Houmo sat still on the edge of the bed with his back to her.
At the thought of the process she was shot, Su Muge had an inexplicable emotion in his heart.
Xia Houmo seemed to have sensed her movement, turned around, and saw Su Muge staring at him with open eyes.
Xia Houmo had cleaned himself up and changed into a robe with a scent of tea.
“You wake up.”
“Water…”Read latest chapters at Listnovel.com
Xia Houmo poured her a cup of warm water. After drinking it up, Su Muge felt much more comfortable in her throat.
Su Muge could lie down now but couldn’t move.
“Your Royal Highness, the medicine is done.” Yueru carried a bowl of medicine into the room. Seeing Su Muge wake up, she revealed some joy in her eyes but she dared not to be too presumptuous when Xia Houmo was present.
“Your Grace, you are finally awake. We are so worried about you.”
Su Muge saw Xia Houmo take over the bowl, thinking that he was to feed her.
Su Muge was a little stunned. “Your Royal Highness, just let Yueru…”
Xia Houmo took a spoonful of medicine, blew it, and straightly sent it into her mouth.
Su Muge glanced at Yueru, who hurriedly lowered her head and pretended to have seen nothing.
Su Muge could only obediently drink up the medicine.
Xia Houmo wiped Su Muge’s lips with a handkerchief gently and carefully, making Su Muge very uneasy!
“Have a good rest. I’ll come back in a moment.” Having finished speaking, he stood up and left the room.
It was not until he was completely out of sight that Su Muge exhaled a sigh of relief.
Only then did Yueru dare to step forward and feed Su Muge a bowl of water.
“Miss … Your Grace, you finally wake up. We are almost scared to death!”
Su Muge moved slightly and accidentally affected the wound. It was so painful that she almost cried out.
“How long have I slept?”
“Your Grace, you’ve been asleep for five days. And His Royal Highness has been staying by your bed day and night. He insists on taking care of you all by himself and disallows us to help.”
Su Muge choked. Taking care of her all by himself!?
“For example … the medicine is always fed by him?”
Yueru nodded repeatedly.
Su Muge twitched her eyes.
“My clothes… are also changed by him?”
Yueru continued nodding.
Su Muge couldn’t help twisting her mouth.
“At night, he…”Read latest chapters at Listnovel.com
“Of course he has been in the same room with you!” On Su Muge’s wedding day, Jin Mansion’s neglect of Su Muge left her with a very bad impression of the King of Jin, so she was very worried about Su Muge’s future situation.
But these few days, the King of Jin’s behavior was so unexpected that her bad impression of him had long since disappeared.
“Go to get the washing tools for me.”
“Your Grace, your injuries are still unhealed.”
“The medicine is so bitter!”
“Oh, I’ll go right away.”
After a simple wash, Su Muge felt much more refreshed.
Su Muge closed her eyes. “I’m a little tired and want to sleep for a while. “
“Okay.”
Yueru helped her lie down carefully.
After sleeping for so many days, Su Muge was actually no longer drowsy.
After Yueru retreated, Su Muge opened her eyes again.
She had been in a coma for five days, and the wound should have begun to scab.
In the study of Jin Mansion.
“Your Royal Highness, they found Fengtian in Hanzhou prefecture.” Hanzhou prefecture was not far away from the capital; half a day was enough to get there on a swift horse.
Xia Houmo’s eyes were cold. “Within five days, give me an accurate location of Fengtian.”
“Yes.”
As the door of the room was pushed open, Su Muge closed her eyes subconsciously, feeling that someone was walking towards the bed. She wondered if it was Xia Houmo who had come back and she hoped it was not!
However, Su Muge’s wish was not fulfilled.
“Guima says you have to eat something light after waking up.”
Su Muge still kept her eyes closed, pretending to be asleep.
Xia Houmo lifted the bed curtain and reached out to caress her pale face.
Su Muge was stiffened and felt that she couldn’t breathe!
She couldn’t help but open her eyes slowly.
Seeing her open her eyes, Xia Houmo withdrew his hand and asked the maid to serve some hot porridge.
Thinking that Xia Houmo had been doing everything for her personally these days, Su Muge was a little bit embarrassed. After all, she was awake now!
Seeing Xia Houmo take over the bowl, Su Muge was anxious.
“Just one bowl is enough.”
Xia Houmo apparently didn’t notice Su Muge’s strange expression.
When the porridge was sent to Su Muge’s mouth, Su Muge pursed her lips and sighed.
“Your Royal Highness, I was willing to ward off the arrow for you.”
Xia Houmo paused, and the maids lowered their heads and retreated.
Xia Houmo looked directly into her eyes.
“Why? Just because you think you owe me?!”
Su Muge looked down, but Xia Houmo raised her chin and forced her to look directly into his eyes.
Actually … her words were spoken by Su Muge in a fit of anger at that time!
“Didn’t you intend to make me ward off the arrows? I was just doing as you wish.” Su Muge looked at him and said in a careless and cold tone. As the golden arrow pierced her body, her crush on Xia Houmo was gone with the wind.
Xia Houmo frowned. Would he tell her that he was just trying to scare her because she annulled the engagement of marriage before?!
Of course, he wouldn’t!
How could the King of Jin do such a childish thing?!
“Su Muge, don’t talk to me with this tone!”
“Ouch, it hurts.”
Seeing Su Muge’s frown, Xia Houmo revealed a flicker of panic in his eyes.
“Did it affect the wound?”
Su Muge lowered head. It really affected the wound, and it was so painful that she almost burst into tears.
She was no longer in the mood to talk with Xia Houmo and leaned on the mat in pain.
“It hurts … Your Royal Highness, a gentleman won’t bully a patient. Even if you want to trouble me, you should wait until I have recovered.”
Hearing her words, Xia Houmo stopped being anxious instantly.
“Why do you move around?!”
Wasn’t it because of you?!
Su Muge glared at him resentfully. Now that she was so painful, she was not afraid to offend him anymore. Anyway, she had already offended him.
“The porridge is getting cold. Don’t you want to eat it?”
“Yes, I do!”
If she didn’t eat anything, it would be even more difficult for her to recover.
“Thank you, Your Royal Highness.”
Xia Houmo took a spoonful of porridge and sent it into Su Muge’s mouth. Without eating anything these days, Su Muge’s stomach had already been numb. After swallowing a mouthful of porridge, she felt much more comfortable.
After finishing the bowl of porridge, Su Muge asked casually: “Your Royal Highness, you haven’t eaten yet?”
“Are you concerned about me?”
Su Muge choked. After all, they were husband and wife now. In this era, it was not easy to divorce a prince. Even if she had a death-free golden medallion, Xia Houmo would never let her go!
Since they were husband and wife, even if Xia Houmo had no feelings for her, they could at least coexist peacefully.
“I heard from Yueru that you have been taking care of me these days. You are getting thinner …”
Before Su Muge could finish her words, Xia Houmo grasped her hand.
“Su Muge.”
“Em?”
“You are my wife now.”
So what?
“You are the wife of Xia Houmo.”
So what?
“Whether in your mind or heart, you can only think about me.”
“…” I didn’t find myself in your mind and heart. Were you too domineering?
He would not only restrict her freedom but also control her mind?!
Without getting Su Muge’s response, Xia Houmo couldn’t help holding her hand even more tightly.
“Your Royal Highness, the Emperor’s mother didn’t want me to marry you. She caught my grandmother’s family and asked me to annul the engagement of marriage. I came to you before I entered the palace, but you were not in the mansion at that time.”
Hearing Su Muge’s words, Xia Houmo lowered his dark eyes.
“What?!”
Su Muge thought that she would better inform Xia Houmo of this matter. Whether he believed it or not, she should at least tell him.
“You came to me that day to annul the engagement of marriage?”
Su Muge nodded and then shook her head.
“I was looking for you to help me find my grandmother … The Emperor’s mother only gave me three days, and that day was the last day.”
“Why didn’t you come to me on the first day?”
Su Muge glanced at him and decided to ignore this question. “It’s my fault to damage your reputation. Please forgive me, Your Royal Highness.”
She thought he hated her because he was shamed?
“Su Muge.”
“Yes?”
“Have you remembered what I said just now?”
What?
Su Muge was dumbfounded and nodded immediately as she met Xia Houmo’s dark eyes.
“But, I have a condition.”
Xia Houmo raised his eyebrows.
“As for your demands of me, can you do it for me?”
“What?” Xia Houmo didn’t expect her to ask that.
Su Muge smiled, “Your Royal Highness, can treat me as you said? You can only think about me in your mind and heart?”
Xia Houmo just looked into her eyes straightly, without answering.
Su Muge’s smile was getting bigger but not so happier. “Your Royal Highness, forget it.”
