I want to make progress

Chapter 63 Soft-hearted
The Duke was really too scary. It was usually okay for him to sneak in at night, but this was in broad daylight! Broad daylight! She was almost scared to death!
"You're sleeping so soundly, I'm afraid you've been exhausted these past few days."

Looking at the man who was sleeping soundly, a trace of heartache flashed in Shu Yunfu's eyes. It seemed that what happened on the night of Mid-Autumn Festival was not simple, otherwise the man would not be so tired.

She pulled the quilt for the man but did not wake him up. She turned and left the room, asking Qiutang to continue watching over him while she went to the small kitchen and stewed a pot of ginseng, cordyceps and chicken soup, which was just right for his current physical condition and could replenish his body and restore his energy.

After hesitating for a moment, she reluctantly put in half a drop of life condensate, just... because he promised to help her!
After three days of hard work, anyone would feel tired, and Gu Changting is no exception.

But even though he felt dizzy and had a headache, Gu Changting was still worried about Shu Yunfu's injury. He didn't care about the broad daylight and quietly came to Yizuxuan. However, he didn't expect that the person he wanted to see was not there.

Originally he didn't want to sleep in Yizhuxuan, but he was too tired, and the familiar fragrance in the room gave him a sense of security.

Perhaps it was because in front of Shu Yunfu, both his good and bad sides were fully revealed, and he always felt relaxed with her, so he fell asleep peacefully and slept very deeply. After waking up, even he felt incredible.

When he opened his eyes, he saw the woman sleeping innocently in his arms. He just hugged her with a gentle expression. Gu Changting, who was sleeping soft and comfortable all over, did not get up, but stayed in bed for a rare time. He didn't know whether it was because the quilt was too soft or the woman in his arms smelled too good.

However, his movement woke Shu Yunfu up. She was not sleepy at all, but she fell asleep unconsciously while lying next to the man, and her sleep was not deep to begin with.

"you're awake!"

She happily turned over and lay on the man's chest, holding his face and carefully examining it, "Not bad, your complexion is much better after a good sleep."

"I'm fine, sorry I scared you."

I pulled her hand down and held it in my palm. Seeing that she was so worried about me, my mood improved.

"I'm just a little surprised. Qiutang was scared by you." She looked at the man with a smile. Seeing that he didn't want to get up for the time being, she was happy to lean on the man's arms and talk. "You must be exhausted these days. I specially stewed a soup for you to replenish your vitality. Drink a bowl later. No matter how busy you are, you have to take care of yourself."

"Well! This time it was indeed a bit tricky. Many people were killed or injured, half of the street was burned, and there were assassins... Forget it, why am I telling you all this? How is your hand? Does it still hurt? Did you apply the medicine properly?"

I picked up her injured hand and examined it, but it was bandaged so tightly that nothing could be seen.

Although he was extremely busy during these three days, Gu Changting was still worried about the two bloody fingers from that night.

"The medicine you gave me is very good, but it still hurts if I accidentally touch it, and it's a little inconvenient to move. These are all minor things. I'm just worried that the nail that grows back will not look good."

She moved her two injured fingers, frowned in distress on purpose, and smiled secretly at the man's furrowed brows.

She had already applied diluted life gel to the wound, and the wound had healed long ago. Now she just had to wait for the nails to grow back. It would be really ugly without two nails.

But she wouldn't say it's okay. Why should a woman be so strong, especially in front of her man. If she doesn't show some weakness now and make him feel distressed, then how long will she have to wait?

He put two of her fingers to his lips and kissed them, then looked into her eyes very seriously and said, "No, it's very beautiful. Every part of it is beautiful." He was not lying. This woman was the most exquisite woman he had ever seen. Every part of her body was exquisite and perfect. As a man who had personally verified this, he could testify that this was a woman favored by God.

After hearing these words, Shu Yunfu blushed, and looking at this shy woman, Gu Changting chuckled, turned over and pressed her under him.

"Eh!"

With messy hair and a red face, she stretched out her hand to cover the man's stupidity, "You've been sleeping for a whole day, aren't you hungry? Anyway, I am hungry."

She pushed the reluctant man away, and the man was caught off guard and turned over without even being able to grab a piece of her sleeve.

"I'll prepare dinner for you!" Seeing the man's face full of surprise, Shu Yunfu winked at him mischievously, turned around and ran away.

"Ah……"

Sitting on the edge of the bed with his knees bent, Gu Changting covered his eyes with one hand and laughed. What a goblin!

The dinner was not very sumptuous. Shu Yunfu didn't care how complicated or precious the dishes were. She preferred home-cooked dishes. What's more, her hand was injured, so the dishes were relatively light.

After eating light meals for several days, with the addition of Gu Changting, she took the opportunity to add a few more dishes to improve her diet.

A stir-fry of lotus pond, with white lotus root slices, emerald green snow peas, and crispy and delicious black fungus. Regardless of the taste, the appearance alone is worth a try.

A spicy grilled fish, the fish is crispy on the outside and tender and spicy on the inside. Under the fish body are spread bean sprouts and cucumbers with a refreshing taste, plump mushrooms, bean curd skin soaked up with soup, and crispy, sweet and fragrant onions. Not to mention anything else, just the aroma makes everyone dizzy as soon as it appears.

A dish of salt-baked chicken, with golden skin and tender meat. When you take a bite, you can taste the original flavor of chicken. After eating one piece, you will want to eat another one.

A dish of Mapo Tofu is spicy, numbing, fresh, fragrant, hot and tender. Although it is not as good as the authentic Sichuan Mapo Tofu, the taste is still irresistible.

A dish of stir-fried pork kidney, which is stir-fried with the best Huadiao wine. It is spicy and delicious, crispy and tender without a trace of fishy smell. It is so delicious to eat a bite of pork kidney and a sip of wine.

A dish of ginseng, cordyceps and chicken soup, regardless of how it tastes, its nourishing effect is absolutely unquestionable. Moreover, Shu Yunfu spent a lot of money to put in half a drop of life condensed water, which stimulated the medicinal effect and taste of the herbs to the extreme. As soon as the lid was lifted, the overbearing smell filled the whole room.

With so many delicious foods in front of them, the two of them ate very comfortably, especially the pot of ginseng, cordyceps and chicken soup, which they drank up not a drop. It tasted good, but the key was that it was effective.

Shu Yunfu, who often takes diluted life elixir, felt a warm current running through her body after drinking the soup, and she was sweating slightly.

Not to mention Gu Changting, who was taking the Life Condensate for the first time. He had suffered from years of hard work and fatigue, as well as hidden injuries left on his body from military training when he was young.
