"What's the matter? Xiaobei, why do you look a bit disheveled!"
Guo Meiyu, who was called by Hu Xiaobei, gave a quick glance at Hu Xiaobei who quickly caught up, and gently narrowed her eyes...
At this time, Guo Meiyu was really curious.
Because she really hadn't seen Hu Xiaobei with such a flustered expression for a long time.
Hearing Guo Meiyu's super curious inquiry, Hu Xiaobei turned his head to look at those elders...
After that, Hu Xiaobei quickly spoke, "Sis-in-law, it's a long story! You... you really are my savior this time! If it weren't for you, I... I would really be in trouble!"
Hu Xiaobei was speaking the truth at this time!
He knew that if Guo Meiyu hadn't appeared in time, it would have been really difficult for him to leave so easily!
Hearing Hu Xiaobei's absolutely agitated words, Guo Meiyu looked at those elders.
Quickly, she squinted her eyes and said playfully, "Xiaobei, they... they weren't trying to set you up on a blind date, were they?"
After being guessed, Hu Xiaobei was a bit stunned and widened his eyes, "Huh? How... how did you know?"
Hu Xiaobei was genuinely surprised at this time!
Because she had guessed it directly!
Feeling Hu Xiaobei's shock, Guo Meiyu smiled and explained softly, "It's simple! Now, they are professional matchmakers, a lot of the single young people in our village have been 'educated' by them! Didn't expect that, you couldn't escape either!"
"You knew about this, why didn't you give me a heads up earlier!"
Saying this, Hu Xiaobei slightly frustrated rolled his eyes...
Hearing Hu Xiaobei's complaint, Guo Meiyu chuckled, "You can't blame me for this! You were busy with treatment before, I didn't have time to remind you, plus, I thought you, this little bastard, already had someone you liked, they wouldn't match you up again!"
"Someone I like? Who would that be!"
Hearing Hu Xiaobei's curious inquiry, Guo Meiyu whispered indignantly, "Hmph! With so many women around you, who knows which one is actually the one you like!"
Feeling Guo Meiyu's irritation, Hu Xiaobei carefully looked at her for a while...
Just as she was about to ask, he spoke first, "Sis-in-law, did you have dumplings for lunch?"
"Dumplings? What do you mean?"
Realizing she didn't understand his implication, Hu Xiaobei chuckled and continued explaining, "You only dip vinegar with dumplings! If you didn't have dumplings, why does your tone have such a sour flavor? Could it be you're jealous?"
"You... you... you... I'm not jealous! I wouldn't be jealous of you, you big bastard!"
Saying that, Guo Meiyu stomped her feet and turned around to run away!
Hu Xiaobei laughed heartily, quickly following after...
Regarding Guo Meiyu and the others, Hu Xiaobei genuinely cared deeply, so he didn't want to drag any of them into it, as that would truly be irresponsible!
...
"Xiaobei, why don't you invite Lin Ling'er to join us for dinner?"
A few hours later, Guo Meiyu and Han Xueyao, after finishing preparing dinner, curiously asked while putting their aprons aside.
"She's still in the detoxification stage, unable to come out for meals! Later, I'll bring some food over for her!"
Explaining this, Hu Xiaobei swiftly grabbed a chicken leg!
After looking at the chicken leg he picked up, Hu Xiaobei quickly took a bite.
In an instant, Hu Xiaobei smiled excitedly...
"The taste is really good!"
Hearing Hu Xiaobei's enthusiastic praise, they rolled their eyes at him, saying, "Little glutton cat!"
Hearing them, Hu Xiaobei didn't mind at all...
Instead, he continued eating with delight...
Seeing Hu Xiaobei's absolutely shameless behavior, they smiled helplessly...
After that, they also sat down beside Hu Xiaobei and started to eat!
Warmth!
Although no one spoke at this time, warmth filled the air...
After the meal, Hu Xiaobei glanced at them, saying, "Alright, you continue, I'm going to check on Sister Lin now!"
Hu Xiaobei knew that the time was about right, so he prepared to give her the best treatment for a full recovery...
"Okay!"
Gently agreeing, they watched Hu Xiaobei leave...
After that, they sat down again...
After sitting down, Guo Meiyu glanced at Han Xueyao, softly saying, "Sister, about Xiaobei, you..."
"Sister, I know what you want to say, but there's no need to worry! This little bastard may seem indifferent to us, but in reality, we're what he cares about the most!"
"That's... that's true!"
Hearing this, Guo Meiyu thought for a moment, and soon, she gently nodded...
She knew this was indeed the case...
Because previously, knowing she was in any slight danger, he would rush out madly...
So it really showed he cared a lot about her...
"Since that's the case, there's no need to worry! Because he won't ever leave us in this lifetime!"
"Mhmm!"
Nodding happily, she picked up her chopsticks again!
Han Xueyao noticed this, smiled, and picked up a piece of chicken leg, placing it in her bowl...
...
At this time, Hu Xiaobei, holding the meal, arrived outside Lin Ling'er's room...
Standing there, Hu Xiaobei gently knocked on the door...
After that, Hu Xiaobei quietly waited, and soon, he heard a slightly soft voice!
"Xiaobei, the door isn't locked, you... you can come in!"
"Okay!"
Agreeing, Hu Xiaobei gently pushed the door open...
With a soft sound, a trace of medicinal aroma instantly filled the air.
Smelling this medicinal aroma, Hu Xiaobei knew she had clearly followed his instructions earlier to apply it...
Thinking so, Hu Xiaobei glanced ahead, and instantly, his eyes lit up slightly...
In the room, the light wasn't very bright...
As such, the atmosphere in the whole room had a slight indescribable vibe...
Standing at the room entrance, Hu Xiaobei could clearly see her not far away, probably because she had applied the ointment earlier, her cheeks were flushed...
"Really beautiful!"
Uttering a heartfelt compliment, Hu Xiaobei gently asked with concern, "Sister, how do you feel now? Are you feeling any better?"
While inquiring softly, Hu Xiaobei closed the door casually, then placed the dish he was holding on the table not far away...
She carefully sensed her body upon hearing Hu Xiaobei's question, soon, Lin Ling'er shyly whispered, "Xiaobei... I... I don't feel much different now, just... just feeling a bit hungry!"
Finishing this, she couldn't help glancing at the food Hu Xiaobei placed on the table...
Before, after parting with Hu Xiaobei, she returned to her room...
After revisiting the areas that needed applying, Lin Ling'er began applying bit by bit...
Initially, she didn't feel any difference, but gradually, she felt warmth all over...
This warmth made her very comfortable...
So Lin Ling'er gradually relaxed...
Unknowingly, she fell asleep until shortly before Hu Xiaobei arrived...
Thus, she didn't have a chance to carefully feel her body changes before.
Now, upon hearing Hu Xiaobei's inquiry, Lin Ling'er carefully felt again, only to find herself indeed very hungry...
