Chapter 567 Let’s just fight for the day
After more than ten days of rest, the wound on Su Lingyue's back has scabbed over. Now, if she doesn't move too much, she can walk normally without any problem.
Su Lingyue went to the kitchen and asked Caidie Caiyi to pack the specially prepared medicinal food and went to the master bedroom of Furong Pavilion.
Outside the door, the guards saw that it was Su Lingyue and made way for her.
But before he opened the door, a heart-wrenching cough came from inside.
"Prince, come and take the medicine." Yan Qing persuaded anxiously and suppressedly.
In the room, Yan Qing was trying his best to get Xiao Yu to stop coughing, but the coughing wouldn't stop. Later, Xiao Yu was completely out of strength, and the only sound left in his throat was a hoarse breathing sound like a leaky whistle.
Su Lingyue stood at the door, her eyes red and her vision gradually blurred.
Uncle Lu only said that Xiao Yu's lungs were weakened by the cold, and even breathing was a burden. Unexpectedly, after not seeing him for ten days, Xiao Yu's condition had deteriorated to this point.
But now, I stand here, without any solution.
Inside the room, perhaps Yan Qing had fed the medicine to Xiao Yu, and no sound could be heard outside the room.
Su Lingyue lowered her head, suppressed her emotions, and whispered, "Caidie, go get a hot water bottle first."
"Okay." Caidie handed the lunch box to Caiyi and immediately went to take it.
By the time Caidie Su Lingyue's eyes were red, there was no trace of crying on her face, only a faint smile.
The door opened, and a warm stream of medicinal smell hit me in the face, mixed with a hint of sweet and fishy taste.
There was nothing unusual on Yan Qing's face, and she wore her usual warm smile. "Princess, you're here. The prince just woke up."
Su Lingyue smiled, "Well, I'll serve the prince lunch, you can go and have lunch too."
Yan Qing looked back again before leaving, rubbing her stomach.
Su Lingyue brought Caidie Caiyi into the room and asked Caidie to close the door behind her. Xiao Yu was afraid of the cold now, and even a little cold wind made him feel uncomfortable.
In the past, the two of them snuggled up to each other and lingered in love on the bed. Xiao Yu was wearing a white inner garment, with his long hair half tied up, leaning against the head of the bed. His face was extremely pale, and a copy of "Xiao Yao You" was placed on the low table beside him.
Seeing Su Lingyue coming in, Xiao Yu raised a weak smile.
"Does your back still hurt?"
Su Lingyue smiled faintly and sat down on the bed, gesturing on her little finger, "There's still a little bit, but I won't feel it when I see the prince."
The usual sweet words made Xiao Yu laugh.
Su Lingyue took the hot water bottle from Caidie and put it on Xiao Yu's back. "I heard that the prince has been coughing a lot these days. Using the hot water bottle will make him feel better."
Unlike the dry heat in the room, a gentler heat entered the body from the back, and breathing seemed smoother.
"Yeah, it's definitely much more comfortable."
Xiao Yu stared at this pretty face. He hadn't seen it for many days, but it was still so bright and charming.
The gentleness and tenderness between her eyebrows gradually calmed Xiao Yu's uneasy heart, and the faint jasmine fragrance on her body added a bit of freshness to the stuffy room.
Su Lingyue took Xiao Yu's cold hand and said coquettishly, "I've been so bored staying indoors these past few days while recuperating. Now that I can finally walk, I came to have dinner with Your Highness. I asked the kitchen to make today's lunch, and the taste is different from before. Your Highness, please try it."
"Okay." Xiao Yu responded with a smile, his eyes never leaving the little face he thought about day and night.
On the table, Caidie Caiyi had already placed the meal in the lunch box. Su Lingyue scooped a bowl of medicinal porridge and some easily digestible vegetables. She sat down beside the bed and gently fed Xiao Yu one spoonful at a time.
Xiao Yu only took two bites of the second bowl of porridge before he could finish it. Su Lingyue sat on the bed and ate the remaining porridge with a spoon.
After taking the last mouthful of porridge, Su Lingyue raised her eyes and saw Xiao Yu staring at her deeply.
After rinsing her mouth with the tea Caiyi handed her, Su Lingyue wiped the water stains from the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief and smiled at Xiao Yu, "The porridge tastes good. It's in my stomach. Your Highness, there's no way you can eat it!"
Xiao Yu laughed, and the haze in his eyes gradually dissipated, "Tsk, you don't mind your husband's saliva."
Su Lingyue's cheeks flushed red, her clear eyes looked towards the rooftop evasively, and she muttered softly, "I've eaten a lot!"
Xiao Yu noticed the changes on Su Lingyue's face, shook his head, and smiled sincerely and comfortably, "Little thing, I thought you were really shameless!"
"I'm not ashamed of my own husband!" Su Lingyue's cheeks flushed and she pouts softly.
She turned her head to look at Caidie and Caiyi behind her. They had already cleared the dishes and stood behind the screen.
"Cai Die, Cai Yi, you two go down first!"
"Yes."
The two men responded and came in to take away the food boxes and trays on the table.
Hearing the sound of the door closing, Su Lingyue moved closer to Xiao Yu and hugged him, burying her head in Xiao Yu's neck so that Xiao Yu could not see her blushing cheeks.
Su Lingyue had an injury on her back, and Xiao Yu was afraid of hurting her, so he just gently held her waist, feeling the unique tenderness of the person in his arms.
The two hugged each other for a long time before Su Lingyue spoke softly, "Prince, can I tell you what's in my heart?"
"Yes, sure." Xiao Yu's gentle and low voice came from his ear.
"During the days since I was injured, I was thinking, if I tell my aunt about my dream, maybe she has made her choice and no longer needs me. My uncle is now a second-rank official in the court. I will find time to tell my uncle and cousin everything about my dream. With their abilities, they will definitely have no problem remaining neutral and protecting themselves."
Her lips gently fell on Xiao Yu's neck, and Su Lingyue thought of the "Xiao Yao You" on the coffee table.
"Now, the prince is the only one who is closest to me. I am lucky to have met the prince in this life. So I will do my best to treat the prince." She paused, her voice gentle but firm, "If it is not possible, I will accompany the prince and will not let you be alone wherever we go."
The only response to Su Lingyue was the silence in the room and Xiao Yu's heavy breathing.
"A morning mushroom knows no new moon or full moon, nor does a cicada know spring or autumn. Yet, the morning mushroom has its joy, and the cicada has its happiness. If the morning mushroom and the cicada find the meaning of their existence, even for a moment, their lives will be worthwhile. But if they do not find the meaning of life, whether it lasts five or eight thousand years, it will be in vain."
Su Lingyue leaned on Xiao Yu's shoulder, her eyes full of tenderness and calmness. "My only refuge is with the prince. If the prince doesn't want me, I will have no one to rely on in this vast world. Even if I survive in this world, I will only be filled with endless loneliness. If we are together, even if it's only for day and night, my heart will be happy and at ease. So, let's be together and seize the day, okay?"
Su Lingyue had said something like this before. Although Xiao Yu was moved when he heard it, he felt it was far away.
Now it has really come to this, when panic, powerlessness, and despair come over me little by little, and then I hear these words, my heart, which is crumbling in the darkness and nothingness, seems to be entangled and wrapped by the flexible silk vine little by little.
Xiao Yu rested his head on the thin shoulders, smelled the faint fragrance on Su Lingyue's body, and slowly closed his eyes.
If the world after death was like this moment with his eyes closed, and if his Yue'er was by his side, even if it was dark, it would not seem to have much impact.
Xiao Yu felt relieved, and even felt a little happy.
You are in the underworld with your bones carved from mud, while she is living in the human world with her head covered with snow.
If he died, he would not be willing to let this little thing go through spring, summer, autumn and winter alone.
Instead of this, it is better to keep her by my side. Even if she turns into dust, the two of us will be connected by blood and never be separated.
Xiao Yu smelled the faint scent of jasmine, his body, mind and thoughts completely empty, feeling the beauty of the two people's hearts blending at this moment.
"Okay, we just have to seize the day." Xiao Yu responded gently.
