uld be too embarrassing. Gritting her teeth and bearing the excruciating pain in her foot, she snarled, "You're just a shameless mistress! What do you have to be proud of!"Dare to insult their little...The sandalwood on the man's body was almost imperceptible under the smell of disinfectant.

but enough to make Mu Xing sink into despair.

She kissed lightly on the man's chest as she adjusted her sleeping position, then snuggled comfortably into his arms and soon fell fast asleep.

Even breathing emanated from her embrace. Fu Lingxiao opened his eyes and looked down.

In the hazy vision, the girl was no longer as cold and aloof as when she was awake. She nestled obediently in his arms, her cheek pressed against his chest, relying on him like a kitten.

Fu Lingxiao's heart softened. He gazed at her tranquil sleeping face, and after a moment, confirming she was asleep, he reached out and gently covered her ears with his hand, his thin lips curving up slightly, "Come in."

The next instant, a figure leaped in through the open window.

"Got it back"

Fu Lingxiao pressed his voice.

To prevent any accidents during this operation on Wuyou Island, he secretly hid several miniature cameras on the island for Yunto to operate. At least they could gather some information.

In the afternoon, taking advantage of Mu Xing's absence, he sent Han He to Wuyou Island to retrieve the camera. Just as Han He had returned and was about to report, Mu Xing arrived. To avoid explanation, he told Han He to temporarily hide outside the window.

"Got it back."

Han He stood respectfully by the window, lowering his gaze and replying in a soft voice: “The one closest to the center was completely destroyed. The ones further away weren't affected by the blast wave. I checked them, but there was nothing recorded.”

Fu Lingxiao frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and said: “You now send the camera back to Canglong and let the technical department try to extract valuable information from it.”

"Yes."

Han He emerged from the window with swift and agile movements.

Fu Lingxiao retracted his gaze, hugging the little person in his arms, closing his eyes to rest.

-

When Muxing woke up, she found herself still nestled in the man's arms.

She cautiously raised her eyes and, without warning, she met a pair of deep, soulful eyes.

He was gazing at her intently, a faint smile playing on his sharp features. His dark eyes reflected her face clearly.

He didn't know when he woke up, or how long he had been staring at her.

At the moment their eyes met, a low and pleasant voice came from the man: "Yan Yan, you're awake."

Mu Xing immediately looked away, turning her head to look out the window. The bright sunlight pricked at her eyes, causing them a slight pain.

She blinked and asked Fu Lingxiao, "What time is it now"

Fu Lingxiao replied, "Three o'clock in the afternoon."

I slept for almost twelve hours this time. My insomnia, which has been incurable, always seems to disappear without a trace in my uncle's arms.

Mu Xing quietly curled her lips, came out of Fu Lingxiao's arms, and got up to wash.

When she came out of the bathroom, a table was set up beside her bed with a meal.

"Yanyan, come over for dinner."

The man leaned against the headboard, looking at her with a smile in his eyes.

Mu Xing couldn't help but feel a warmth in her heart. Her uncle was still the same as before, taking care of her in every detail.

Three years had passed, and everything had changed. Yet, when she was with her uncle, she would often feel as if nothing had changed at all.

Or perhaps it's just that her uncle's kindness to her has never changed.

Mu Xing walked over, glanced at the dishes, and found none suitable for her uncle to eat. Apparently, he didn't want to eat, so she didn't say much, picked up her chopsticks and started eating.

Fu Lingxiao leaned against the headboard, quietly watching. His eyes couldn't see clearly yet, but as long as Xing’er was by his side, even just a blurry figure, it would make him feel incredibly happy and satisfied.

Mu Xing also ate by herself, finishing her meal and tidying up the dishes before carrying them away from the ward.

Fu Lingxiao thought Mu Xing had gone to deal with the dishes, but after waiting for a long time, she still didn't come back.

He furrowed his brow in worry and beckoned Yun Tuo over. "Go see immediately, where is Gu Yan now"

As soon as the voice fell, a young girl came in carrying a thermos. "Looking for me"

A familiar figure appeared, Fu Lingxiao's tightly furrowed brows instantly relaxed. "Yanyan! You're finally back."

When she got to the bed, he suddenly embraced her waist and held her tight, his voice tinged with a hint of grievance: "Yanyan, where did you just go I thought you had left me again."

Seeing that Fu Ye was putting on a pitiful act again, Yun Tuo wisely backed out and kindly closed the door.

"I don't owe you any money, so why are you running."

Mu Xing put down the thermos, twisted open the lid, and poured out the freshly cooked nutrient porridge. She controlled her strength and pushed the man against her chest away, "Eat the porridge first."

Fu Lingxiao glanced at the steaming porridge, then looked up at Mu Xing, his eyes filled with surprise. It turned out that Xing'er had just gone to cook porridge for him.

I'll drink it right away.

He reached out to take it, but his hand was stopped by Mu Xing. "I'll feed you," he said.

She was truly terrified. Her uncle's reckless abandon, the way he just gulped it down without a care, was too much for her delicate stomach to handle.

Mu Xing scooped a small spoonful of porridge, blew on it, and held it to Fu Lingxiao's mouth.

Fu Lingxiao cooperated very well, opening his mouth to eat. He looked delighted and accepting. After all, since Xing'er was willing to take care of him, it meant she cared about him!

Men's adaptability to food is not high yet, Mu Xing fed him half a bowl of porridge and stopped. He took out the medicine and helped him change the dressing.

Fu Lingxiao looked at the serious girl, and said softly: "I really hope my injury will never heal, so I can stay with Yan Yan forever and feel her care."

Uncle really is...

Who would curse themselves like that!

Drink plenty of hot water and dream less.

Mu Xing said unhappily, then ignored him until she finished changing his medicine. She then said, “You rest here, I’ll go see Shi Ye.”

Since time had passed without any contact from her, it meant that Shen Lue's condition was stable. However, she still wanted to go and take a look herself.

But his hand was grabbed by the man, "Yanyan, kiss me before you leave, okay"

Mu Xing lowered her eyes and looked at him, "Not good."

Then I'll kiss you.

With a tug of his hand, he pulled her closer. He cupped her delicate chin and leaned in, pressing a gentle kiss to her lips. “Go now,” he murmured.

This man, he could always effortlessly tug at her heartstrings.

Mu Xing's face was flushed, she forced herself to remain calm and turned to leave.

Coming to Shen Lue's ward, Shen Lue was still in a coma. Mu Xing checked him over and confirmed that his condition was stable before going back to the lab...

Two days later.

Shen Yue finally woke up.

Mu Xing rushed to the hospital as soon as she received the phone call. When she arrived at the door of the ward, she saw Shen Lu getting out of bed. He lightly pushed away the nurse who was helping him up and walked forward.

Before he even touched the ground, his tall frame suddenly tilted to one side. It was clear that he was struggling to maintain his balance, but it was no use.

Fortunately, Shi was quick to see and react, catching him before he fell.

The top-tier, adorable disciple of Master Fu fights incredibly fiercely downstairs for a long time but didn't see Mu Xing come down. She was bored being alone, so she asked Wu Butler if she could go upstairs to look for Mu Xing. After receiving an affirmative answer, sh...
