Female Doctor, Prince Please Accept Me

Xia Li carefully arranged the items on the ground, and fell down next to Sun Chun due to exhaustion. Not long after, he also passed out.

This time, she did not go and disturb the two of them. The two who were worried for her for the past few days had finally returned to her side, the result of her many days of anticipation. As for the relationship between the two of them going out to announce their relationship as husband and wife, she did not plan to intervene for the time being and prepared to wait for the day to come.

In the middle of the night, Xia Li was woken up by his hunger. Cold sweat trickled down his forehead and he couldn't help but exclaim out loud due to the throbbing pain in his stomach.

"Pain …"

Sun Chun also hadn't eaten a single grain of rice. After resting for a few hours, the pain from his abdomen being cut once again completely disappeared along with the effects of the painkillers.

He got off the bed, lighted the candle in the dark, and by the light of the candle, he saw Xia Li's painful expression clearly.

"What's going on?"

"At... The gambling house had been starving for four to five days already, and now, there was something wrong with it. As long as it didn't eat in time, it would cause its stomach to ache unbearably … "Eh!" As Xia Li finished speaking, his body trembled in pain, both of his hands grabbed onto Sun Chun's wrist tightly, his nails piercing through Sun Chun's wrist at the same time. Sun Chun endured the pain from his wrist and carried Xia Li horizontally, walking out of the room and placing her on a low stool under a tree, allowing her to lean against the tree trunk and sit.

"I'll go find something to eat, you just have to bear with it." Sun Chun said as he was about to leave, but he realized that Xia Li was tightly grabbing onto his wrist, not allowing him to leave.

"Where are you going? Don't leave me, I'm scared." As Xia Li said that, his body trembled from the pain, and he collapsed.

"I'm going to the kitchen, I'll be right back, good boy!" Sun Chun bent over and kissed Xia Li on the forehead. The cool sensation caused Xia Li, who was in a daze from the pain, to wake up, and could not help but look up at Sun Chun. At the same time, he released him and stared blankly at Sun Chun as he headed to the kitchen.

I can't believe he kissed her! Xia Li felt like he was dreaming.

Sun Chun found a candle in the kitchen to light it, scooped some water into the water basin, washed his hands, held the handkerchief in front of him to moisten it, then walked over to Xia Li to wipe the sweat off her face. After that he wiped his hands, he rushed back to the kitchen and opened the lid of the pot in a hurry.

Sun Chun brought the dishes to the small table under the tree in the courtyard. Xia Li reached out to grab the chopsticks, but her hands were trembling from the pain, and the chopsticks in her hands fell to the ground. With an embarrassed expression, she lowered her head to pick them up, but was stopped by Sun Chun.

"I'll do it myself." As Xia Li spoke, he endured the torment of the stomachache and picked up the chopsticks with trembling hands. The first time he didn't catch her, she repeated it again and her hands slipped once more as she directly knelt on the ground and slowly picked up the chopsticks from the ground and gave them to Sun Chun. At this moment, she was sweating profusely, her face was as white as paper and she was breathing heavily.

"Just sit down. I'll feed you." As Sun Chun said this, he supported Xia Li who was leaning against the tree trunk and done with it. He picked up a pair of clean chopsticks, picked up a few dishes and put them into the bowl for the rice, then changed a spoon and scooped up a spoonful of rice and brought it to Xia Li's mouth.

"Eat it and your stomach won't hurt."

The corner of Xia Li's eyes were a little red. She opened her mouth wide and swallowed the rice in one gulp, chewing on it slowly and swallowing it. After two spoonfuls, she pushed away the rice that Sun Chun had brought over yet again.

"I can't eat it anymore." Xia Li shook his hands.

"You've been hungry for four or five days. Eat more to replenish your body." When Sun Chun said this word for four or five days again, he felt as if his entire heart had been grabbed by someone, and was in so much pain that he felt numb. He placed the rice on the table and wiped the rice from the corner of his mouth.

He scooped up a bowl of rice soup and personally scooped up a spoonful and brought it to her mouth.

"Drinking some more soup is good for your abdominal pain, good boy."

At this time, Xia Li only felt the world spinning around him, as he treated one Sun Chun as three. His figure was constantly swaying in front of him, but the words he said were clearly transmitted into his ears. He opened his mouth, barely managed to drink a few mouthfuls of soup, unable to finish eating any more, and fell asleep in a daze.

Sun Chun brought Xia Li to his own room and covered her with a quilt. Looking at who was safe and sound, he came out to eat some of the remaining food. Then, he cleaned up the dishes and sent them into the kitchen to wash.

Sun Chun held Xia Li in his arms and slowly fell asleep.

Only after an unknown amount of time had passed did he suddenly hear a cry that made him open his eyes in a daze. Only then did he realize that Xia Li, who was in his embrace, had suddenly sat up, opened his eyes and shouted loudly, "Hungry, you want to eat!"

Xia Li extended his hand to his forehead, his face was covered in sweat, he exhaled, and looked around, his red and swollen eyes looked at Sun Chun.

"Sorry, I … I seemed to have a nightmare and woke you up. You won't chase me away right?"

Xia Li said, tidied up his own clothes, and laid down beside Sun Chun, tentatively holding onto Sun Chun's arm.

"While you're sick, you can stay with me."

"Really?" Xia Li had also completely awakened. The moment she thought about how this man in front of her had taken the initiative, she naturally had to take it all in. She wanted to enjoy her life being cared for!

"Of course I won't lie to you. Quickly go to sleep."

Sun Chun covered her with a blanket and watched her fall asleep all the way before lying down in peace. He held her hand and placed it on his chest, feeling the warmth of their palms against each other, a strange feeling spread out from the bottom of his heart. It was only that he didn't have time to figure it out yet, before he fell asleep.

Before the sky brightened, Xia Li had already woken up. Worried that Lee's would see her together with Sun Chun, while Sun Chun was still sleeping, they would quietly leave his embrace, tidied up their clothes, got off the bed, and left him. They returned to her own room, closed the door, laid on the bed, and fell asleep again.

Sun Chun looked at the empty bed beside him and felt the remaining warmth on it. He smiled slightly, but there was no longer any trace of sleepiness, and he swore that in the future, as long as he was by her side, he would not let her face danger. Otherwise, if anything happened to her, he would feel guilty for the rest of his life.

For some reason, Xia Li felt that Sun Chun was a completely different person compared to the usually aloof and distant him. Although they did not talk much each day, they would urge her to eat at regular intervals and would personally bring the dishes to her mouth.

He also visited the town every day to buy some vegetables, fruits, snacks and meat for the Lee's to cook for her.

After half a month of meticulous care, Xia Li's body had recovered to the point where he could sleep in peace every day. For the next half month, she slept beside this man every night. She was a little reluctant to leave, and always worried that there would be a day she would be expelled.

It was a pity that the heavens did not pity her. Whatever she was afraid of, she would do it.

At night, Xia Li prepared to enter Sun Chun's room to rest as usual, but she found that she could no longer open the door. Just as she was about to knock, Sun Chun's low voice came from the room.

"Xia Li, your body is almost recovered. Go back to your room and rest!"

"How am I better? I still have nightmares at night without you around. I can't fall asleep and my whole body feels uncomfortable." Xia Li stood outside the door and spoke softly, but in reality, he was continuously pushing at the door in an attempt to enter the room.

"This is a loss to your reputation. Go back." After Sun Chun finished speaking, he extinguished the candle flame in his room and did not say another word.

Xia Li stood alone at the door, looking at the crescent moon in the sky, staying outside Sun Chun's door for an hour, but did not receive any response. Her body could not take it anymore, and in the end, she obediently returned to her own room to rest.

Hearing the sound of the door closing, Sun Chun, who was in his room at night, heaved a sigh of relief. The hour Xia Li was in front of the door was never easy for him, and he couldn't help but open the door a few times, but in the end, he resisted his impulse and forced her to return to his room.

Before the sky brightened, Xia Li was the first to leave the room, wash up and tidy up the room. After sweeping across the courtyard, she went to the kitchen to cook a family meal, and after she finished everything, Lee's and Xia Qing woke up. Sun Chun also did not come out yet.

She had been sick for more than half a month and had no money to pay for it. This caused her to panic. After all, she still had some debts to pay.

Xia Li ate a simple breakfast by himself and left the other dishes in the pot. After taking the basket and preparing to walk out of the courtyard, Lee's was the first to call her back.

"My girl, where are you going? "You haven't fully recovered yet, so don't run around."

"Mom, I'm going to Nine Dragons Mountain to gather herbs and prepare my painkillers. If I don't hurry, when will I be able to repay my debt?"

"Don't worry, I've already recovered. I'll be fine when I go out alone."

Xia Li held Lee's's hand and comforted her with a smile.

"Aunt, I'll go with Xia Li. What do you think?" At the same time Sun Chun spoke, he walked out of the room. He was clean and tidy, and his speech was loud and clear, completely different from his weak appearance half a month ago, when he was suffering from abdominal pain.

"Sure, with Young Master Sun by Xia Li's side, I'll be relieved." Lee's nodded his head.

"You don't have to worry about that. I really have nothing to worry about. It's not like I'm hunting tigers in the mountains. I'm just picking herbs." Xia Li stubbornly shook her head. During the herb gathering period, she needed to enter and exit space at any time, so of course she couldn't bring Sun Chun in. Otherwise, wouldn't the fact that she had this space be exposed?

"Be obedient, you have to worry about your own safety." Sun Chun swore that if he wanted to protect her, he wouldn't allow her to go out alone, and let her face unknown dangers on her own.

"Sun Chun, I know you care about me a lot and are worried that I will be in danger alone. But picking herbs is related to the formula of the painkiller, and the formula is very precious. I don't want anyone to see it, so please let me go alone, okay?" Xia Li remained silent for a while, his expression was solemn and serious as he spoke to Sun Chun.
