  After a few days of recuperation, Xie Ciyan's injury had almost healed. Only the more serious ribs needed to be carefully healed for a while, but it was not a big deal.

  In the past few days, the old man was not sure whether he was a loner or deliberately avoiding them. He was almost invisible. He pounded the herbs and placed them outside the door every day. He even placed the meals outside the door on time, but he never knocked on their door. This made Xie Ciyan more suspicious. If two strangers who had never met suddenly appeared in front of his door and were injured, the owner would not be afraid at all, and even had no intention of driving them away. He did not ask about them and let the two people live in his house.

  The old man never asked about their identities, even if he tried to ask indirectly. Wasn't he afraid that the two of them were wanted criminals of the court or were being hunted, and thus implicated himself?

  Unless he knew their identities from the beginning.

  But how could it be? That day, they were all wearing riding clothes, and they had nothing to prove their identity. The old man probably wouldn't recognize them from their clothes.

  Yan Zhaozhao took two bowls of porridge from outside the door and put them on the table, and then took a bowl of porridge and sat next to Xie Ci Yan. As usual, she scooped a spoonful of porridge to her lips and blew it to cool it down, and then fed it to the man who was still thinking about something. When his

  lips were lightly touched, Xie Ci Yan suddenly came back to his senses. After seeing her actions, his eyebrows softened, and there was an obvious smile in his eyes. "Zhao Zhao looks like this now..." He said with a hint of sarcasm, just wanting to tease her. "You really look like a good wife and a good mother."

  Yan Zhaozhao didn't get angry when she heard it, but just glanced at him, and handed the spoon in her hand forward, motioning him to open his mouth. "A drop of water should be repaid with a spring. You saved my life, so I will take the responsibility of taking care of you until you recover."

  "A drop of water should be repaid with a spring?" Hearing this, Xie Ciyan narrowed his eyes slightly, and a dangerous look flashed in his eyes, "So, if someone saved you, no matter who it was, Zhao Zhao would repay the favor?"

  Yan Zhaozhao did not hear the other meaning in Xie Ciyan's words. She thought he was hinting at something, so she obeyed and agreed. "Of course, since you have done me a favor, I must repay it, otherwise wouldn't I become an ungrateful person?"

  Xie Ciyan's eyes darkened, and he kept holding her wrist and looking directly at her, "No matter who it is?"

  She was a little stunned, not knowing why he reacted like this. After hesitating for a moment, he gently nodded.

  Xie Ciyan suddenly felt bitter in his throat. After looking at her for a long time, he finally sighed secretly and let go of her hand helplessly. Just now, there was a moment when he had an impulse to tell her that he was the one who saved her after she was drugged. But this impulse only surged for a moment, and then it completely dissipated.

  He had always buried this matter deep in his heart and did not tell her, because he knew that the person who saved her had a different meaning to Yan Zhaozhao. What he wanted was that Yan Zhaozhao, as a person, and even her heart, would be pleased with him because he was Xie Ciyan, not to be crowned with such a heavy title as a lifesaver, so he did not say it, and was unwilling to use it to bind her. Back then

  , Xie Ciyan had never thought that he would meet the person he loved in this way. That

  year, he heard that the tea at Yunlai Inn was excellent, so he went to taste it when he had nothing to do. But when he passed the No. 1 wing of Tianzi, he suddenly heard a woman shouting loudly, and she shouted loudly, as if she wanted to attract attention with her voice. But soon, her voice became weaker and weaker, and there was a faint hint of charm.
