Chapter 199 First Love
Chapter 199 First Love
At night, a campfire flickered inside the cave.
The unconscious Mu Wanqing lay on a pile of dry hay, her brows slightly furrowed.
After an unknown amount of time, Mu Wanqing slowly opened her eyes.
At first her vision was a little blurry, but when she saw someone by the campfire, she was startled awake and her vision instantly became clear.
It's him!
The winemaker named Gu Qianbei saved him twice.
"Awake? How do you feel?"
Hearing the noise, Gu Qianbei turned to look at Mu Wanqing, a smile playing on his lips.
"I feel... okay, my injury..."
Mu Wanqing felt that the pain she felt before she fainted had mostly disappeared, and even her wounds had healed.
If it weren't for the lingering pain in her chest from the force of the palm strike, she would have begun to doubt whether everything that had happened was a dream.
"How come my injuries are all healed?"
Mu Wanqing exclaimed in shock.
"I healed your wounds, and it seems to be working quite well."
As for the internal injuries caused by Yue Laosan's palm strike, although I used my internal energy to help you alleviate a lot of them, it will still take some time to fully heal.
Night Rain Returns to Spring can heal external injuries, but not internal ones. This internal injury was treated by Gu Qianbei with his internal energy, so the effect was naturally not immediate, but it was enough to improve Mu Wanqing's injury by more than half.
"Such amazing medical skills exist in the world?"
Mu Wanqing was still shocked.
She was fully aware of her condition before she fell into a coma.
That kind of injury wouldn't heal in less than a few months.
But right now, after just one night's sleep, I've recovered most of my strength, and the remaining amount will probably be fully healed in a few days.
The effect is amazing.
Mu Wanqing immediately realized that Gu Qianbei must have given her some kind of magic pill, otherwise it would not have had such an effect.
Thinking of this, Mu Wanqing felt a surge of indescribable emotions.
From childhood to adulthood, she lived in an unhappy environment, and at one point she felt that no one truly loved her.
Because she was an orphan, although she met a master named Qin Hongmian who taught her everything he knew, Qin Hongmian had an eccentric personality, often scolded her, and was extremely strict with her.
Even so, she still felt a deep love for her master.
But she also longed for someone who truly loved her.
Her master set a rule for her: her face must be covered by a veil, and the first man to see her face must either kill him or marry him.
She didn't understand, but because it was her master's order, she obeyed.
Over time, she realized there was nothing wrong with it.
And a sense of anticipation grew in her heart.
I wonder what kind of person the first man to see my face will be.
Amidst this anticipation, she met one man after another.
Those men were either ugly, had poor martial arts skills, or were vulgar in manners.
She occasionally encounters some nice ones, but none of them meet her requirements.
In this life, finding a perfect partner is no easy feat.
But today, she seems to have encountered one.
He possesses superb martial arts skills, handsome appearance, and gentlemanly demeanor.
Most importantly, the other person was the first man to see his face.
For a moment, Mu Wanqing's heart was pounding, and she didn't know how to face Gu Qianbei.
Gu Qianbei had no idea what Mu Wanqing was thinking. At this moment, the porridge he had cooked was ready, so he immediately ladled out a bowl and handed it to Mu Wanqing.
"The porridge is ready. Have some; it will help with your injuries."
Looking at the steaming hot wild mushroom porridge being served, Mu Wanqing felt a warmth in her heart.
"Thanks."
Mu Wanqing said softly, then took the bowl, blew on it, and drank it down.
She was indeed hungry.
Having fled for most of the day and been unconscious for a long time, his stomach was completely empty, with no food left.
After taking a sip of porridge, Mu Wanqing's eyes lit up.
What delicious porridge!
I never expected this man to have such culinary skills.
Seeing Mu Wanqing eating with a satisfied expression, Gu Qianbei smiled and served himself a bowl as well.
Yes, it tastes really good.
The mushrooms on Wuliang Mountain are really good.
"It's not far from Sword Lake Palace from here."
If your matter is not urgent, come with me.
Firstly, it allows me to recover from my injury, and secondly, it helps me avoid other troubles.
Yue Laosan and Ye Erniang are both dead, and the other two villains might be nearby.
If you travel alone, you might encounter trouble.
Upon hearing Gu Qianbei's words, Mu Wanqing pondered for a moment and did not refuse.
She lowered her head, two blushes rising on her cheeks, and deliberately lowered her voice, adding a touch of deliberate gentleness.
"Okay, I'll do whatever you say, Mr. Gu."
"What?"
Gu Qianbei was taken aback upon hearing this. What was going on?
Can you imagine a girl who is usually cold and aloof and speaks sharply suddenly becoming stammering when she speaks?
this is too scary.
Gu Qianbei's mind raced, and he realized something was wrong.
He had become the first man to see Mu Wanqing's face, and now she was going to cling to him.
Even though she's a stunning beauty, I'm still the innocent Chu Lan, I can't just give myself away like that.
"Ahem, Miss Mu, isn't that a bit too intimate of you to address me like that?"
You can still call me Young Master Gu, or Young Hero Gu, it's fine either way.
Upon hearing this, Mu Wanqing glared angrily at Gu Qianbei.
"What do you mean? You're the first man to see my face, you're my husband, are you trying to renege on your promise?"
"Miss Mu, you can't just set a rule and expect everyone to follow it, can you?"
"you……"
Mu Wanqing was so angry that she almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
Fortunately, the night rain brought spring enough relief, otherwise it really might have been a problem.
"Um... calm down, calm down, it's not that bad, it really isn't."
Mu Wanqing's eyes reddened when she saw Gu Qianbei's embarrassed and awkward appearance.
"You...you think I'm ugly?"
"How could that be? Although I have seen many beauties, Miss Mu is among the best."
However, I'm not settled yet, and matters of the heart are still a bit too early for me.
Besides, we don't have much of an emotional foundation. This is only our first meeting, and talking about love is too early, really too early.
Just kidding, Chu Lan's lightning technique isn't fully mastered yet, so his body definitely can't be broken.
After hearing this, Mu Wanqing gradually understood.
Unexpectedly, this young master in front of me is a slow-to-warm-up type.
"Then let's spend some time together. I believe you will definitely become my husband!"
Mu Wanqing's eyes were firm and brooked no refusal.
Gu Qianbei scratched his head.
Being too handsome is a problem; beautiful women are always trying to get close to you.
Since that's the case, I'll have to resort to distraction.
"There's no rush. Once you've recovered, I have a secret to tell you."
"Secret? What secret?"
"We'll talk about it once you've recovered. Get some rest; we'll go to the Sword Lake Palace first thing tomorrow morning."
