My Princess Holds Superpowers-Chapter 1440: Who Wants Yan Shi Dead?

After saying this, both of them were stunned.

Finally, An Ning spoke first, "Um... don’t get me wrong, I’m just worried you’ll catch cold, and besides, this bed is big, we can keep some distance... "

An Ning bit her pale lips, not knowing how she managed to say such bold words.

If Sikong Wuyou misunderstood, he might even think she was some kind of bad girl.

Fortunately, Sikong Wuyou didn’t think as An Ning feared.

"I know, you’re worried I’ll catch cold."

While speaking, he lifted the quilt and lay down.

An Ning hurriedly tried to move back to give him space, but Sikong Wuyou reached out and held her in his arms, "Ningning, sleep..."

She hadn’t felt cold outside just now, but upon entering, she felt the warmth of the bed.

The night suddenly quieted down.

She could clearly hear his breathing and smell his scent.

The position of her heart was beating rapidly.

An Ning thought she would have trouble sleeping tonight, but that was not the case.

Lying in his arms brought an inexplicable tranquility, allowing her to quickly fall asleep.

In her sleep, An Ning felt her cheek itch a bit and instinctively wanted to reach out and scratch it.

However, the sharp pain in her wrist reminded her of the injury there.

Opening her eyes, she happened to see Sikong Wuyou withdrawing the towel from her face.

It turned out the itch was because he was wiping her face. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

"Is it already daylight?" Looking outside, it was clearly daytime, and judging by the sunlight streaming through the window, it was almost noon.

"Yes, it’s daylight. The kitchen has made red date and lotus seed porridge to boost blood; let me help you sit up, drink some porridge, and then sleep a bit more?"

With that, Sikong Wuyou took the pillow beside him, helped An Ning sit up, and placed the pillow behind her.

Being cared for is a wonderfully pleasant feeling, especially when served by a handsome man.

After a bowl of red date and lotus seed porridge, An Ning slept once more and only then felt somewhat better.

When An Ning woke again, it was already afternoon.

Sikong Wuyou was not there; she called out, and Bai Su entered.

Bai Su: "Miss An, the master has some official business to attend to, and specially instructed me to wait at the door. Is there anything Miss An needs?"

"No. Thank you, Bai Su. Do you know what time it is now?" Feeling groggy, she could only distinguish between day and night, but not the specific time.

"Miss An, it’s afternoon now. In another hour, it will be time for dinner," Bai Su replied.

"Dinner? So soon?" She had spent the entire day in a daze, not realizing how quickly time had passed.

Bai Su stood aside, "I’m just outside; if Miss An needs anything, just call me."

After An Ning nodded, Bai Su retreated.

Upon waking this time, An Ning’s strength had somewhat returned; though still weak, she could move a bit compared to the morning when even raising her hand was difficult.

Yet, with Sikong Wuyou gone and having slept enough, lying alone in the room was incredibly boring.

When idle, one inevitably starts remembering unpleasant things.

Although Sikong Wuyou said Madam Yan had awoken, An Ning couldn’t help but worry without seeing it herself.

Meanwhile, An Ning was also pondering who could be trying to harm Madam Yan.
