But she didn’t know, Guisu had been trembling, not his hands, but his heart.

“So, you’re here, and everyone calls you Miss Lu?”

His voice was really hoarse, not sure if it was from too much blood loss or sheer exhaustion.

Baili Xia didn’t respond, just reached out to feel his forehead.

Fortunately, there was no fever.

She pouted slightly, “Stop talking now.

Look at you, your hands are shaking like this.

Drink some warm water and lie down for a bit.”

“No…”

“Why are you so disobedient?” Baili Xia frowned, “I’m your doctor now, you have to listen to me.”

The cup was brought to his lips, and she insisted, “Drink some water first.”

Guisu gave her a deep look, finally drank a sip of water from the rim of the cup.

“Want more?” Baili Xia looked at his face, pale with a tinge of red.

Guisu said nothing, so Baili Xia turned around, about to pour another cup for him.

Unexpectedly, Guisu suddenly reached out and grabbed her wrist.

“When you were a kid…” he gasped, staring into her eyes filled with surprise.

“When you were a kid, did you give a street boy a bun and a coat? Did you?”

Seeing him so agitated, Baili Xia was a bit taken aback.

“Things like that… happened often, I don’t know which one you’re talking about.”

The coat…

she had given away a few, each time being scolded by Lu An.

Later, to prevent her from giving away their belongings, Lu An even refused to buy her new coats.

But how did Guisu know about this?

And why was he so agitated?

She suddenly arched her brows, chuckling.

“Don’t tell me you’ve also received my kindness. You almost killed me once…”

Guisu abruptly let go of her hand, his face turning even paler in an instant.

In the past, on Lu Xuening’s orders, he almost…

almost killed her.

He had almost taken her life!

His heart throbbed painfully, yet he couldn’t find an outlet for it.

All the pain clogged in his chest, finally becoming indistinguishable from any other feeling.

“Guisu, what’s wrong?” His drastic change in expression really frightened Baili Xia.

She wanted to reach out to check his forehead again, but he dodged to the side.

“Guisu…”

“Lu Xuening…

could she also be like you, helping street beggars?”

“What do you think?” Though she didn’t know what he was thinking, just mentioning Lu Xuening made Baili Xia’s face fill with disdain.

“That wicked woman, do you think she has such a good heart?”

“Forget helping beggars, if someone in shabby clothes touched her, she’d probably take off her own clothes and throw them away immediately.”

Honestly!

Having stayed by Lu Xuening’s side for so long, couldn’t he see her true colors?

He actually asked if Lu Xuening would do good deeds.

If Lu Xuening were capable of doing good deeds, the sun might as well rise from the west.

Looking at Guisu again, his face was coldly composed, staring intently at her, with his eyes slightly red.

Baili Xia truly couldn’t fathom, couldn’t understand this man’s thoughts.

“Are you thinking about her again?” She’s already dead, so what’s the point in thinking?

Moreover, it’s better to be away from someone like that.

It’s only by leaving her that you can be reborn; live your life well, isn’t that better?

Why think about her?
