Although everyone in the Yan Manor was shocked at first, after Li Zixuan announced his marriage to Jiujiu, they gradually accepted it. However, they had some complaints about Jiujiu starting to take over the Yan Family's affairs. After all, in their eyes, women should take care of their husbands and children, and men should do business. 1357924?
Jiujiu was intelligent to begin with, and Li Zixuan was willing to teach her everything, so in less than a month, Jiujiu was familiar with the Yan Manor's affairs. As long as nothing too big happened, she could handle it alone.
Although she was familiar with the Yan Manor's affairs, she didn't know how to deal with Li Zixuan.
Li Zixuan looked gentle, but in reality, he was hard to get close to. No matter who he was with, he would smile, but in reality, he had built a fortress of ice in his heart, imprisoning his heart and his feelings. Jiu Jiu even wondered if the Li Zixuan in the original owner's memory had ever fallen in love with Chu Hexin.
On this day, after the two of them finished their work, they had lunch as usual.
Looking at the beautiful sunset, Jiujiu rested her chin on her hand and looked at Li Zixuan, asking softly, "Big brother, have you ever wanted to find your family?"
Li Zixuan was adopted by the original owner's parents the year the original owner was born.
No one knew where he came from, only that he was thrown on the streets and was adopted by the original owner's parents. The clothes he was wearing were made of high-quality silk. To be able to wear silk clothes, it could be seen that Li Zixuan's background wasn't low.
After Li Zixuan was adopted by the original owner's parents, after being depressed for half a year, he displayed his shocking talent. Not only was his memory outstanding, he even displayed his shocking talent for business. When the original owner was three years old, the original owner's parents had the idea of betrothing the original owner to Li Zixuan.
Children should have memories by the age of five or six. Li Zixuan wasn't adopted by the original owner's parents when he couldn't remember. His depression for half a year was the best evidence. However, what puzzled Jiujiu was that whether it was now or in the original owner's memories, Li Zixuan had never thought of finding his family.
It was unknown whether he did not know where his family was, or whether he knew but was unwilling to look for them.
According to Jiujiu's observations over the past few days, she felt that it should be the latter.
Hearing Jiujiu's question, Li Zixuan's originally gentle face instantly darkened. He tilted his head and glanced at Jiujiu. In a low voice, he said, "Wherever you are, that is my home. Could it be that you are unwilling to give yourself to me?"
At the end of his speech, Li Zixuan tilted his head and stared at Jiujiu's eyes with his ink-black pupils. His focused expression made Jiujiu's heart tremble involuntarily.
Turning her head slightly, Jiujiu pursed her dry lips and said in a low voice, "I was thinking too much."
Li Zixuan said, "Don't mention this again."
Jiujiu: "…"
Because of Jiujiu's question, the originally harmonious atmosphere between the two instantly became awkward. Just as Jiujiu got up and was about to leave, her body suddenly uncontrollably fell toward Li Zixuan.
Before she could stand up straight, she felt a sharp pain in her back. Jiujiu's last impression was Li Zixuan's calm and emotionless face, as if ice had been broken.
Then, her vision turned black and she lost consciousness.
She did not know how long she had been unconscious. When Jiujiu woke up again, she only felt a piercing pain in her back. Especially when she moved her body, it hurt even more.
Jiujiu sucked in a breath of cold air. Before she could get up, the bed curtain was lifted.
She saw the usually meticulous Li Zixuan looking at her with his sharp hair. His chin, which was usually as white as jade, had a green stubble. Seeing that she had woken up, a hint of joy appeared in his eyes. He pressed his hands on her shoulders and let her lie down on the bed again. Then, he said in a low voice, "The poison in your body has not been cleared yet. It's better if you lie down."
Jiujiu blinked. Thinking back to when she lost control of her body and fell toward Li Zixuan, could it be that this was Li Zixuan's doing?
However, seeing that Li Zixuan's attitude had changed because of her blocking the arrow, Jiujiu's lips curled slightly. She lowered her head and pretended to be shy. She said softly, "It's good that you're okay."
Seeing that Jiujiu did not look regretful at all, Li Zixuan's eyes, which were bloodshot because he had been staying by Jiujiu's side all night, shook. His dry lips curled up, and he said in a low voice, as if he was making an oath, "Of course, I will repay you with my body for saving my life. Miss, you can forget about escaping in this lifetime."
Before Jiujiu could react, Li Zixuan called for Qiao Die to come in.
Qiao Die gently changed the medicine on Jiujiu's back. Looking at the ugly scar on Jiujiu's back, Qiao Die's nose twitched and she almost cried.
Master and Madam only had one daughter. If something happened to Miss, she would not have the face to see Master and Madam even if she died.
However, thinking that Jiujiu had been in a coma for more than half a month, Li Zixuan did not have any other thoughts. Instead, he stayed by Jiujiu's side day and night. It could be said that he was sincere.
Qiao Die, who had some prejudice against Li Zixuan, was relieved when she saw Li Zixuan's sincere appearance. In this way, she could be relieved and hand Miss to Li Zixuan.
After changing the medicine for Jiujiu, Qiao Die went to the small kitchen to prepare a meal for Jiujiu.
Li Zixuan changed his clothes while Qiao Die was changing the medicine for Jiujiu. After washing up, he came to Jiujiu's room.
Because she was lying on the bed, Jiujiu's waist-long satin hair was casually draped behind her head. It made her face, which was thin because of illness, look even more small. Her face, which had just become a little ruddy, was even paler than the day of Master and Madam's burial. Her rosy and beautiful lips were dry and peeling. She was so thin and haggard that it made people's heart ache.
Especially when he thought that Jiujiu had become like this because of him, Li Zixuan's heart instantly stirred.
It was like the spring breeze ruffling the lake water, creating layers of ripples. Li Zixuan sighed softly. His slender fingers gently brushed past Jiujiu's face with the coolness of the night. Li Zixuan's eyes flickered slightly. His voice was low and magnetic, but there was a hint of seriousness and persistence. He looked steadily into Jiujiu's eyes and said, "Miss really wants to marry me. It's not because of Master and Madam's wishes, or because she wants to bribe me to work for the Yan family."
Li Zixuan's words were very rude. If others heard them, they would definitely say that Li Zixuan was cold-blooded and heartless.
The Yan family had raised him from a five or six-year-old child to this day. It was natural for him to sacrifice his life for the Yan family. However, there was not the slightest bit of gratitude in his tone. He was too heartless.
However, Jiujiu felt that this heartless Li Zixuan was the real Li Zixuan. Without that gentle smile and perfunctory attitude, this Li Zixuan was the real Li Zixuan.
