He likes Begonia.

  That dense sea buckthorn forest by the side of Ruoye Creek was his favorite place to linger, where he and she once irrigated with clear water from the creek.

  Later she left, the tree full of flowers seemed to have lost its color too. He stood alone for a long time, his light blue shirt transforming into a lonely shadow.

  Apart from the banks of Ruoye Creek, the place he visited most often was Qingyuan Garden, where she had once lived.

  Looking out of the window, there are a few plum trees she planted with her own hands.

  He often sits quietly there, as if guarding the loneliness of the entire winter.

  That day the weather warmed up, after the snow it was a sunny day, outside the window several branches of plum blossoms were fragrant.

  I sent her medicine over, now that she's gone, he doesn't have to be so reserved when taking his medicine. To be honest, I'm a bit relieved.

  Without thinking much, he pushed open the door and entered, only to see him staring at the painting in front of him, his brush by his side, the ink already dry.

  He heard a loud noise, and he quickly rolled up the painting, rubbed it in his palm, and then exerted a slight force, causing the paper to vanish into thin air.

  I calmly handed him the medicine without telling him that I had already seen it, just like not telling him that the more cherished something is, the more thoroughly it will be destroyed.

  She has married the one she loves most in this life. He won't let anyone ruin her happiness, even if that person is himself.

  Later, I saw that painting countless times in my dreams.

  Sparse and bright plum branches, no flowers on the petals, a slender figure with a faint outline, unable to depict her face, but clearly, every fold of clothes, every gesture, all showing familiarity.

  He instructed me to set out immediately for Mobei at the time, and I didn't have a shred of surprise, even though he had just come out of Cangfeng Building.

  I was secretly rejoicing in my heart that it was Gu Zhong's disciple who brought the news back, and not someone who came to seek medical attention with ulterior motives.

  I don't know if he regretted it or not, but Nan Chengyao didn't protect her as well as he had hoped.

  In fact, both of us knew that Xieyigou and Mobei were far apart, and she was already in the hands of the Dong family. Even if we rushed to Ye City at this speed now, it would probably be too late to do anything.

  But I clearly knew it yet didn't speak out to stop him, just like he clearly knew it yet still galloped his horse day and night without a break.

  Perhaps it was fate, or perhaps he owed her from a past life. By some twist of fate, she fell off the cliff again, with the toxic "Thousand Day Drunken Orchid" still in her system, and he saved her once more.

  Emotions cannot be advised, I can only watch him being poisoned and injured again, disregarding the recent hectic rush, using "Huà Bìn Rú Shuāng" just to hope she can be safe and sound.

  He first opened his mouth and let me assist him in injecting the needle. As a doctor, he was more aware of his physical condition than anyone else, but because it was her, he couldn't afford to make any mistakes.

  Later on, his physical strength was exhausted too much, I don't know how strong the will or love is needed to make him persist in finishing the last stitch.

  I looked at the woman's still unconscious face, she would never know that in order to save her, he had almost used his own life as payment.

  His time to recover from his injuries was far from enough, he didn't want her to know, so he calculated the exact time she would wake up and left again, once more using poison to suppress his wounds.

  I think he might want to take her away, since Nan Chengyao can't take good care of her as he had hoped.

  I don't know if it's because of this that he would speak out and want to compare swords with Nan Chengyao, or maybe he just wanted to use this to stimulate him, so as to treat her well from now on.

  I don't know what kind of feeling he had in his heart when he saw her entwined and kissing another man.

  They didn't understand why his duel with Nan Chengyao was limited to just thirty moves, only I knew that at this moment, it was the limit he could bear.

  Nan Chengyao held her tightly and said, "In the future, if Brother Su needs anything, my wife and I will definitely go all out to repay today's kindness."

  His eyes were calm and serene, with the wind and snow falling on her, his voice sounded a bit ethereal.

  He said she owes me this, and it can't be repaid in this life, let's wait for the next one.

  They left, unaware that this time, he had closed himself in the green tent for a whole half month to recover from his injuries.

  She came back to Evil Doctor Valley again for her own life story.

  At that time she was already pregnant, he knew it beforehand, so on the surface he was just calm, and then under the calmness, he devoted himself to helping her with fetal education.

  At that time, Lixin was already dead, and I couldn't help but feel disgusted with her.

  At that time, he saved the real Murong Qing and took her identity as a substitute for Di Jin. With his temperament, from then on, they parted ways cleanly. He would no longer care about her life or death, nor would he go back on his promise to let her go.

  But it was because of her that from the day he knew about Su Muqing's notorious reputation at Wujing Lou, he sent out Lingxin.

  After verifying the true identity of the woman who always covered her face with a light gauze, Lian Xin stayed at Wang You Guan.

  Even if it's something that makes him feel ashamed of himself, as long as she is safe and sound, he won't have the slightest hesitation.

  Unfortunately, she didn't know this, and he wouldn't let her know.

  She hastily returned to the capital, and wouldn't know that because of worry, after he applied 'Painting Eyebrows Like Frost' in Evil Doctor Valley, his injury was greatly stirred up. He should have immediately entered Cang Feng Building for closed-door treatment for ten days or half a month, but instead only used five days, then rushed to the capital without stopping, and once again used poison to suppress his injuries, applying acupuncture to keep her stable.

  She won't know that his body has been approaching its limits day by day, so Nan Xiangyao needs to prepare a quiet room for him to recover from his injuries.

  It should have been a long period of seclusion, but with the current situation, he couldn't put his mind at ease about her, so he just went into the quiet room for several hours every day.

  He put on a calm and composed appearance in front of her, knowing that she couldn't withstand any more emotional blows at this moment.

  She asked him when I was listening beside her, she said, I'm almost fine now, you don't have to accompany me every day. I remember that in the past, you would only need to retreat for a few months at a time, and each time it wouldn't be short. Is it because of me that you're always in such a hurry to come out after just a few hours of retreating, so you have to go every day?

  I coldly opened my mouth, Princess, don't be too sentimental. It's just that my 'painting eyebrows like frost' is always lacking in timing, so the young master has to remind me every day or two.

  I am not her.

  Her child, he was really helpless, and even her life was something he had exchanged for with his own life.

  The last needle technique was a joint effort between me and Chun Yu, even if he used poison to injure me severely, after all, he is not a god, so that time, he retreated to his quiet room to recover from his injuries for ten whole days.

  Before closing the door, he handed over all sorts of things to me. After closing the door, he calmly held her hand and said, "Since I couldn't protect you well, I will take you away."

  Let it be this way, he doesn't want her to know, just wants her to be carefree and happy, so I'll help him achieve that.

  So I listened as he told her that everything he did was only because of Shengong's entrustment, without saying a word.

  So many things like that, I won't tell her at all.

  So she will never know that in this world there is someone who loves her so deeply.

  Lucky or unlucky?

  I watch them, either playing the zither or strolling through the sea of peach blossoms. There aren't many words spoken, but occasionally they exchange a smile, and in that moment, I wish time would stand still.

  She studied medical books every night with a lamp, even at the cost of her own blood, thinking he didn't know, but how could he not know.

  Just as she knew, he was still being poisoned all the time.

  They all pretended not to know just to make the other feel better.

  From the moment he stopped going to the Wind Chime Building, just so that he could spend more time with her, I knew his life was slowly coming to an end.

  Perhaps they all understand, it's just that no one will say it out loud.

  I once had such an extreme idea, after he passed away, I would end her with a knife.

  Since he can't let her go, then she should go down with him.

  He may not know what I'm thinking, but he will never give me such an opportunity anyway.

  Later I finally knew that in the long years to come, I would be destined to live in this hopeless world, for a person, guarding his lifelong dream.

  He was a legendary figure admired by people all over the world when he was alive.

  When he died, it became an eternal myth in this world that can never be reached.

  Such a person, even if it's an unpredictable death, he wants to arrange it with his own hands and won't let others disturb him, not even heaven.

  He poked her Suī Xiàn, and for the last time, he performed "Huà Bìn Rú Shuāng" on her.

  Actually, "drawing eyebrows like frost" has a much greater healing effect than solidifying and restoring, but I don't want to stop him, I know that's what he wants to do.

  She fell off the cliff twice, and her physical weakness had always been his concern. In the end, he used "Hua Bin Ru Shuang" on her. Even if it was impossible to put his mind at ease with this, it could still make the worries in his heart a little less. So, I won't stop him.

  The woman was in his arms, he looked at her face, his eyes were warm and affectionate, reluctant to part with her.

  The sky was getting brighter and brighter, her sleep would be over in a few more hours, she would wake up soon.

  "He suddenly spoke up: 'What's taking you so long?'"

  But her gaze still couldn't bear to leave.

  Since I was young, I have been used to following his every instruction, no matter what it is.

  The "Dragonfly in Amber" in my hand pierced through his body.

  His complexion was calm, without a hint of pain, and his lips slowly brought up a faint smile. His gaze remained unchanged: "Bury my ashes in the sea peach blossom forest, don't leave any traces, and don't let her know. From now on, you will be surnamed Su, Su Lianmo, as the successor to the Evil Doctor Valley... I want you to swear that from this day forward, you will devote your life to protecting her for a lifetime..."
