After the old physician had left, the room gained its previous silence. Xi Ying looked at his wife.
His deep black eyes flashed with pampering and doting love when he saw her red ears. Was she feeling embarrassed or shy because of the old physician's words?
Xi Ying smiled deeply as he wounded his arms around his wife's waist and said
"You must be tired. Do you want to sit?"
He could feel Gu Li's gaze on himself all this while.
However, Li Rui shook her head and looked at Gu Li again.
She walked forward making Xi Ying take his arm back and he saw her cutting the ropes that tied Gu Li with her dagger.
Xi Ying's eyes flashed immediately and he looked at Gu Li warily.
Though the man didn't seem to have any dangerous intent at this moment, he couldn't let his guards down. He didn't want his wife to free him but he also wanted to show his trust on her.
She must be doing this because she had her own thoughts.
"Senior Brother…"
