"In that case, the reason for her high fever should be these injuries."
Helian Zhen usually looked frivolous, but when he was performing a checkup on others, he was very conscientious and serious.
"The wound on her calf should have been caused by a sharp piece of glass. Thankfully, it's already late autumn and it wasn't infected."
"She must have been unconscious for a long time," said Gu Tingyuan.
Although he did not know when Mu Wan was injured or when she fell into a coma, it had been more than an hour since she came back from the Mu family. She was still in a daze and was mumbling something he couldn't understand.
Helian Zhen turned around in surprise and stared at Gu Tingyuan. "Probably? Don't you know how she got injured?"
When faced with a question from his good friend, Gu Tingyuan's expression was cold. "I don't know."
Helian Zhen stared at him for a while, seeming to understand something.
Three years ago, Mu Wan had quietly left. When she came back, this relationship was already in danger and would probably never return to the past.
Helian Zhen didn't say anything else. Instead, he treated the wounds on Mu Wan's legs and head seriously. Then, he applied some fever medicine for her.
When everything was over, he turned around and looked at Gu Tingyuan, who had been sitting on the sofa without taking a step away.
Helian Zhen knew very well that the woman lying on the bed had indeed hurt him before. However, if he removed Mu Wan from his heart, he would have to wait until his heart stopped beating.
"It'll be fine as long as her fever subsides. As for the wound on her leg, don't worry. With me around, there won't be any scars."
On the sofa, Gu Tingyuan stared at Mu Wan.
As he watched her dry and pale lips open and close, he suddenly stood up and walked towards the bed.
Mu Wan was in a daze in her sleep. She kept mumbling something.
For some reason, Gu Tingyuan suddenly wanted to know what she was saying. He could not help but bend down slowly and lean closer to her.
"Gu Tingyuan… I'm sorry…"
Gu Tingyuan felt his heart ache when he heard the words she was mumbling. A hint of pain flashed across his eyes.
Why did she have to apologize?
Was it because she felt guilty towards him?
He took a deep look at Mu Wan, who was lying on the bed. The pain in his eyes disappeared in a flash. The entire process was so fast that no one could catch it.
Turning around again, he strode out of the master bedroom with a cold expression.
After cleaning up the medical equipment, Helian Zhen looked at that lonely and cold figure. He could not figure out why Gu Tingyuan married Mu Wan.
This matter was not announced to the public, nor was there a wedding ceremony. Even he, who had been through thick and thin with Gu Tingyuan, only found out today that he and Mu Wan were secretly married.
When he arrived downstairs, the quiet living room was empty. Gu Tingyuan seemed to have left.
Gu Tingyuan was clearly in a hurry when he made the call. Now, he was sure that Mu Wan was safe and sound, but he acted like he did not care. Wasn't he tired?
…
Mu Wan only woke up in the evening.
Her eyelids and head were very heavy.
Then, Mu Wan thought of Mu Qingsong and his family's unfathomable motives. Even though she had just woken up, she only thought about escaping from that room. It was only when she saw the familiar room that she realized that she was no longer in the Mu residence, but in the manor.
Was she back?
Who brought her back?
She looked around the familiar room blankly. After her fever subsided, she felt much better. She lifted the blanket and wanted to get off the bed.
