Medical Consort vs. Evil Sickish Prince - C306 thawing(2)
She opened her heavy eyes with great difficulty. She felt like she was still in a dream. White vapour was swirling around her body. She felt soft in the warm water. Although she was weak, it was so comfortable that she wanted to sigh.
She shifted her gaze and subconsciously looked towards the warm yellow halo. It was a candle that was placed on the Eight Immortals Table; unexpectedly, there was not even a single oil lamp. This simple and crude arrangement was obviously not in the Prince’s Mansion.
Jin Shu’s gaze shifted again, convinced that she was in a dream. Otherwise, why would there be a man supporting her forehead at the Eight Immortals Table? She was dressed in cloth, and her eyes were filled with worry. She seemed to be deep in thought, not looking at her at all.
Jinshu sighed, thinking how ridiculous this dream was. She could see him during the day and during the night, but the situation in this dream was really awkward.
The faint sighs brought Lu Linghui back to his senses, and he instinctively looked towards Jin Shu, only to see her small face blushing slightly from the water vapor. His shoulders, which were exposed on the water surface, revealed a light pink color, and his eyes seemed to be filled with resentment as he looked at him.
“You’re awake?” Lu Linghui could not be said to be pleasantly surprised, but instead panicked a little. He wanted to go over, but felt that it was inconvenient. He wanted to throw a piece of clothing at her, but was afraid of falling into the water.
“Lord Lu, even in your dreams, you don’t remember me …” Jin Shu opened her mouth, but her low and bitter voice made people speechless.
Lu Linghui also froze for a moment before seeing the white cloth wrapped around the barrel. He half turned her body and threw the cloth at her, not caring if it hit its target or not as he hurriedly turned her body around: “You … You can dry first and change your clothes. ”
Jinshu’s own simple clothes were draped over the side. Although they were stained, they were mostly dry from the charcoal fire in the room.
She was stunned for a moment. Suddenly, she felt that the dream was too realistic. She struggled to get up in doubt. She wanted to wring the wet cloth dry but could only make tiny movements. Just as she got up, she heavily fell back down.
Lu Linghui turned around to look at her, wanting to make her relax with a gentle expression on her face. However, the result was that he became even more stiff, and her face was completely red.
Seeing that she was trying to sit up and yet was powerless, Lu Linghui realized that she had only woken up and had not fully recovered. He had no choice but to walk forward and grit his teeth, saying, “Just treat this as a dream.”
He twisted the cloth to help her sit up, wiped her down, picked her up and put her on the bed.
After the temperature had dropped, she could not use too much force to rub her skin. He had just used the warm water to wake her up, so her limbs were still stiff and cold. Thus, she was unable to move.
He pulled the quilt over her, thinking that the cold quilt clearly could not warm her, and the overheated copper stove was easy to burn. He thought for a moment and then said carefully, “Lady Jin Shu, don’t mind me.”
He took off his outer clothes and crawled into the blanket. He carefully carried her in his arms and warmed her up a bit with his body temperature. He muttered in his heart that he was only hugging a brother.
Jin Zhui, on the other hand, had been staring at him with his bright almond-shaped eyes, his face blank and at a loss. He thought to himself, Lord Lu in this dream is too strange.
As her body warmed up, she could feel the body that was hugging her begin to change.
The heaving muscles beneath the thin shirt were as tight as iron, as if they were warming up at the same time as her. She held her arms tightly, not sure if it was because she was so nervous, or because she was afraid that she would run away, but she did not want to resist.
She fell asleep in the warmth and comfort.
When he opened his eyes, he discovered that her eyes were closed, her eyelashes were slightly lowered, and she seemed to be in a coma again. He was anxious, and his body was covered in a thin layer of sweat, so he could only close his eyes and continue hugging her, not daring to think about her smooth, creamy skin.
After spending so much time sweating with himself, Lu Linghui also felt exhausted. Finally, he entered a slightly tipsy state.
It wasn’t until the candle had burned down and the moonlight shone through the curtain that Jinshu finally woke up.
At this moment, her limbs had already regained their senses. When they moved, she felt that her legs were even more numb. Someone was pressing down on her leg, and they were even hugging her tightly. How could she not be numbed?
She reached out her hand to push it, and the warmth and the reality of her touch caused her to suddenly wake up.
When she looked carefully under the moonlight, the blood all over her body rushed up to her cheeks, and she recalled the dream-like and surreal scene from before.
Jin Shu shivered and stretched her arms out from under the blanket. The cold air made her skin shiver, and she subconsciously retracted her gaze. Her gaze swept across the man beside her and saw the red light of the embers in the charcoal brazier.
She was sure it was no longer a dream.
Lu Linghui was woken up by the movement of the person in her embrace. He hazily opened his eyes and looked at the bright eyes of the brocade bed. Lu Linghui made a sound that wasn’t much better than her, and frantically took out the arm under her neck and waved it made his feel sore.
“I… Am I dreaming? ” whispered Jinshu.
The two of them were too close to each other, and the heat from their breathing and the fragrance of their daughter’s body made him dizzy. For a long time, he didn’t know how to reply.
Jin Shu retracted her arm and touched the goosebumps on her arm. When she realized that there was no sleeve on her arm, she subconsciously reached into the blanket and her face instantly went from boiling hot to snow-white. The heat instantly subsided and even her breathing stopped.
After being randomly touched by her small hand, Lu Linghui’s body restlessly moved around in his embrace a few times. His entire body stiffened up, and it was only after a long while did he finally remember the question she had asked just now. It must be a dream. ”
“Then close your eyes and go to sleep. Everything will be fine once you wake up.” Jin Shu’s voice carried a hint of tears.
“You … Don’t move. ” His body, convulsed with tears and tears, was unable to think. He could only try to stop her, but the place where his hands touched her was smooth skin, and he felt like he was about to burn to ashes.
Finally, Jinshu obediently stopped sobbing. Although she had no experience, she also felt the changes in her body that occurred when the man that was hugging her.
After an unknown period of time, the two of them at least seemed to calm down on the surface. Only then did Jinshi quietly leave the warm blanket. Ignoring the bone-piercing cold in the air, he used the faint light to feel for his clothes.
When she was thrown onto the carriage, she actually wanted to freeze to death in the cold weather, which was why her outer robe was stripped clean. How could her thin inner clothes withstand the cold? She hugged her shoulder and jumped a few times, feeling as if she was about to faint from the cold again.
In order to prevent embarrassment, he did not go find a candle to light the fire, but fumbled around to add some charcoal to the charcoal brazier instead. Seeing that the brocade sous was timidly approaching the brazier to get warm, he sighed and pulled on his outer robe for her.
“You … Aren’t you cold? ”
“Not cold.” His body was strong and strong. Back in the cold Northern Frontier, he had to endure the harsh weather due to the lack of food on the battlefield. The cold inside the house would not affect him for the time being.
