Chapter 0064 – Silent Night (2 / 2)

Looking at Chen Zi’an’s inability to eat, Xiang Capsicum was also a bit sad: “Put it aside first, if you are hungry at night, Nu, I will help you heat it up again.”

“No.” Chen Zian shook his head, gritting his teeth and continuing to eat, “Every vegetable and meal is hard to come by, I need to eat it to get better.”

Not getting better soon, as in how can I protect the people I want to protect.

As he was talking, the healer from the White Horse Temple arrived.

The doctor’s attitude was much more respectful than before, and he brought not only Chen Zian’s medicine, but also fragrant capsule meals and clothing.

“Elder Zhang said that the arrangements have already been made. Tomorrow after Miss Xiang Capsicum rises, you can go to the main gate and look for a female healer named Rou Niang, who is the supervisor of our western district. She will lead you on your rounds starting with the western district first.”

Xiang Capsicum hastened to respectfully thank him.

After the healer left, she opened her own lunch box, only to realize that there was quite a bit of meat in it, and it was somehow much more sumptuous than Chen Zian’s portion.

Chen Zian looked at the meager rice in his hands and suddenly smiled to himself.

Even if he recovers, how can he be compared to the Generalissimo?

Many things that he could not do with all his might were but a word to that man.

Fragrant Capsicum, however, did not notice Chen Zian’s frustration as she joyfully picked up the meat in the bowl and placed it into Chen Zian’s lunch box, “Less, I mean, Zian, you have to eat quickly! You need to eat more meat to get well faster!”

Chen Zian raised his eyes to look at Xiang Capsicum, and saw that her eyes were clear and focused, like the first ray of warm sunshine on a spring day, dispelling the haze in his heart.

“Good.”

After the meal, Xiang Capsicum urged Chen Zi’an to take the medicine, and then opened the door to spread all the blankets and above under Chen Zi’an’s wooden bed, wanting him to sleep more comfortably.

Chen Zian couldn’t argue with her and couldn’t help her, so he could only sit on the chair and quietly look at her, as if admiring the most beautiful scenery on earth.

The night is late.

Xiang Capsicum helped Chen Zian to the bed, extinguished the candles in the room, and lay down on another bed, but was somewhat unable to sleep.

The same goes for Chen Zian.

The two men’s breaths intertwined as the night fell silent, with only the moonlight spilling into the house through the broken window pane, adding a bit of tenderness to the humble space.

“Zian–“

“Capsicum–“

The two spoke almost simultaneously, and Zian laughed, “You first.”

The darkness of the night hid the thin blush on Xiang Capsicum’s face as she mumbled her words, ”The temple is short of manpower, and I promised my master that I would go and become a healer in exchange for the chance to stay. But if I leave, what will you do, Zian? I’ll be touring the Western District tomorrow, but according to the division, this place belongs to the Eastern District. Thinking like this, I’m really worried about you-“

Chen Zian softly said: “Xiang Capsicum need not worry, I still have strength in my left leg, and I have a wheelchair. Although I can’t walk as usual, I can still take care of myself in my daily life. The only thing Zi’an is worried about is that although being a doctor is good, it is easier to catch this strange disease. But–“

He said with some bitterness, “With Elder Zhang and Divine Doctor Tan looking after you, I don’t think anyone will make things difficult for you.”

“Zian need not worry about me! There is no illness in this world that can be difficult for my master! Xiang Capsicum is just playing a hand, it’s no big deal!”

Shellfish said cheerfully.

But when he took office the next day, Shankar realized that he had been overly optimistic.

Looking at the densely packed more than fifty corpses in front of her eyes, her face instantly became white: “These, all the patients who died yesterday?”
