Chapter 25: The Herbalist is Charming (Twenty-Two)

Time passed quickly, and Li Li and Meng Yi had been staying at the foot of the cliff for two days. On this day, Meng Yi went out hunting and tried to find a way to the bottom of the cliff.

Li Li, who was near the cave, was concentrating on processing herbs when suddenly she heard a "bang" sound in her ears. She hurriedly looked towards the source of the sound and found that Meng Yi had fallen to the ground!

Qingli: "Brother Meng! What's wrong with you?"

She half-knelt on the ground, looked at him covered in blood, screamed, and her little face turned pale.

Qingli: "Your injury hasn't healed yet, how come you're injured again!"

Meng Yi: "I... accidentally ran into a herd of wild boars. There were too many of them, so I got injured..."

After saying this, Meng Yi fell into a coma. She quickly helped him into the cave and prepared the herbs.

Seeing the person she loved injured like this, Li Li's eyes were filled with tears and she couldn't help crying. She cried and talked to herself while treating the wound.

Qingli: "Look at you, you've incurred new injuries before your old ones have healed. Can't you take good care of yourself? How can I let you go back to the martial arts world if you're like this? I really want to selfishly keep you by my side, away from all that harm!"

Qingli: "You are a skilled martial artist and very alert, but why didn't you pay attention to the surroundings and let yourself be surrounded by wild boars?"

Qingli: "I don't want you to get hurt at all!"

After treating the wound, she wiped the sweat from her forehead and sat on the ground to rest.

She looked at the man beside her and suddenly felt the desire to talk.

Qingli: "Brother Meng, I know you've been unhappy these past two days. Actually, I'm the same way. I get distracted when I'm doing things and often think of you. Brother Meng, I didn't reciprocate your feelings. You must be very disappointed, right?"

Qingli: "I have been without parents since I was a child. It was my master who raised me. But my master passed away when I was nine years old. He was always taciturn and rarely talked about his past. He told me not to blame him for passing away first, as he could no longer watch me grow up. From the book left by my master, I guessed that he must have been a famous doctor in the past. Maybe something broke his heart, so he went to such a remote place to live in seclusion. Since then, I have lived alone. In fact, I really want to have a family!"

Qingli: "Until one day I met you injured in the bamboo forest at the foot of the mountain. In fact, although I followed my master to study medicine since I was a child, I had never seen a man's body. I was not as calm as I said. When I treated the wounds all over your body, I was almost embarrassed. When I pushed you away at the bottom of the cliff, I was filled with reluctance. At that moment, my thought was that if I died, I would never see you again!"

As Li Li spoke, she couldn't stop crying. She wiped her tears and continued talking.

Qingli: "When I heard that you liked me, I wanted to agree to it for a moment. I also wanted someone to accompany me for the rest of my life so that I wouldn't be lonely. However, I can't be so selfish. There are countless good women in this world, and you deserve better, not me. As long as you get better, I will leave you and not let you feel sad for me. After a long time, you will forget me. I just want you to be well, and in the future... I may not like someone again."

Qingli: "I will pray for you from afar, wishing you a happy life, a wife who understands your needs, and a few lovely children to always be by your side."

She stopped her story dejectedly, and couldn't help but stroke Meng Yi's eyebrows with her fingertips, feeling indescribably tender.

She controlled her heartache and wanted to get up and wash up. When Meng Yi woke up and saw her swollen eyes, he would definitely ask about it.

Meng Yi: "Li'er, don't go!"

Meng Yi held her wrist tightly, supported himself with his right hand, slowly stood up, and hugged Qingli in his arms.

Qingli: "You! Let me go!"

She wanted to break free from his embrace, but she was concerned about his wounds.

Meng Yi: "Li'er, although I am unconscious, I am conscious. I heard everything you said! You like me too, right?"

Meng Yi's eyes shone with a smile. His self-torture trick was worth it; Li'er really liked him! He could have easily escaped when he encountered a herd of wild boars, but he chose to fight them, just to gamble on Li Li's feelings!

Qingli: "You, you must have heard it wrong, I don't like you!"

Meng Yi: "You want me to be with you forever, right? Why are you pushing me to this imaginary woman? Aren't you the one who understands my feelings and cares for me? Why can't we be together, just like you said, and give me a few children who look like you and me?"

Qingli: "You, you must be crazy!"

Qingli's eyes were wandering, and she didn't dare to look at Meng Yi.

Meng Yi held Qingli with both hands, forcing her to look directly at him. He looked at her seriously and spoke word by word.

Meng Yi: "Since we are so in love, why would we miss each other? The fact that we survived this great disaster must be a special arrangement by God, wanting us to finally be together. In this life, Meng Yi only has feelings for Li Li. If we can't be together, I would rather live alone!"

Qingli: "You! Don't talk nonsense!"

She quickly covered Meng Yi's mouth, realizing it was too intimate, and quickly put her hand down, but Meng Yi grabbed her hand and put it on his face.

Meng Yi: "Can you give me a chance and not reject me?"

Qingli: "I..."

Qingli looked at Meng Yi. There was tenderness in his eyes that could burn her, and she couldn't say no.

The two looked at each other, their eyes filled with love. In this cold cave, besides the warmth from the fire, there was a warmth that lingered around them...
