The Divine Doctor And A Common Farmer-Chapter 1562 - 1649: Sweet Enough to Kill

"You think others are unreliable, believing only you are the most trustworthy, so you rely on no one but yourself."

"It might even be because you think that even if you express your needs, no one outside or around you will help."

"But, Xiao Ying, you need to know, things have changed. Now, it’s not like before."

"We six are a part of your life, you are involved in our lives, and there’s a very important place for you in our lives. So even if you are no longer independent, it doesn’t matter, no matter what happens or what you have to face in the future, remember, you are not all alone."

"At least you will always have us."

"It has nothing to do with whether you have any medical skills or how many magical talents you have."

"Do you understand?"

Dong Huiying’s eyes suddenly turned red.

She wrapped her arms around Yixuan’s neck, a bit confused in her eyes, as if misty with tears.

She said to Yixuan in a hoarse voice, "Have I told you before? Your words are really sweet. When you coax someone... especially when you are coaxing, it’s so sweet it could kill someone."

Yixuan also smiled gently.

"It doesn’t matter whether my words are sweet or not, but at least what I say is sincere, and I only say these things to you."

"Alright, it’s late. Time to sleep." 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

Yixuan got up and blew out the oil lamp, then returned to bed, holding her shoulders and gently patting her back.

Dong Huiying snuggled closer to Yixuan’s embrace, feeling inexplicably at ease at this moment, very at ease.

She even had a feeling.

As if...

The invincibility of the past was false, but at this moment, in the arms of this man, she felt that no matter what happens in the future, she would be invincible.

It’s rare to find a true confidant in life.

And for Dong Huiying, Yixuan was far more than just her confidant.

Not a word was spoken for the rest of the night.

The next day, when Dong Huiying got up from bed, Yixuan was nowhere to be seen.

She glanced at the sky outside the window and found the sun was already high.

She had slept for a very long time, which was quite normal, after all, she and Yixuan had chatted for so long last night and went to bed late. But she just woke up now, where did Yixuan go?

Her small hand reached out to the side and touched the bedding; it was already cold. It seemed Yixuan had been up for a while.

She fumbled out of bed, ready to ask the servants to bring a bath of water over, but when she lifted the quilt, she found herself squeaky clean.

It appeared that while she was asleep, Yixuan had wiped her body, otherwise, she wouldn’t be so clean and would certainly be a mess.

Her small face flushed suddenly.

Even though they were an old couple, a man’s considerate gestures sometimes still made her heart flutter.

She slipped into a light purple dress and put on a pair of embroidered shoes with mandarin duck patterns. She pushed the door open, stepped over the threshold, and looked outside.

She saw not only the fresh green of new growth on the branches but also little white flowers blooming at the tips, looking so endearing.

Dong Huiying recalled last night’s conversation with Yixuan, smiled slightly, and then headed towards the trees, broke off a soft and tender twig. Afterwards, she went to Shu Yu’s room.
