Chapter 141 Chu Yisen's Inner Thoughts

"But what about your work?'' Murong Xue asked.

Chu Yisen gave her a smile, "It's okay. Work can be done anywhere. And, I'm glad that you called me, Xue." For him, it proved that he was somehow important to her.

"Yisen, just be prepared. I'm gonna bother you a lot from now on. Ha-ha." Murong Xue laughed with joy.

Chu Yisen just tenderly touched her head and he knew she might never understand that trouble to her was happiness to him as it allowed him to keep in touch with her. He would do anything for that.

In a short while, Chu Yisen asked ten of his trustworthy men to be there.

Long Yi did not care about how they would deal with it because even dozens of men would pose no threat. He watched them do this just because he was unwilling to blow his cover.

At night, Chu Yisen had his things moved over, including some clothes and his work desktop, and his room was next to Murong Xue's. Chu Yisen changed his face when he saw Huangfu Yi as he did not expect her brother to be a man at about his age.

He dragged Murong Xue to one side and questioned her with anger, "Xue, silly girl, how can you sleep with him?"

This was the first time that Murong Xue had seen an angry Chu Yisen so she failed to give a quick response. She felt uncomfortable about her sleeping with Huangfu Yi as well, but she could not say no to him when seeing his frightened face. Besides, she really regarded him as her brother, a man with a child's mentality. "Yisen, he is like a five-year-old boy now."

"But he is not five. How can you be so naive? This has gone beyond kindness."

Murong Xue lowered her head, "I also feel weird at first, but how can I refuse someone who is afraid of sleeping alone? I can't say no to his begging eyes. We've been together for some time, and he is really like my brother, innocent and cute." She would raise a smile each time she thought of the way he followed her.

"You..." Chu Yisen almost went mad when he saw she was so reckless. He knew Huangfu Yi was not someone ordinary at first sight, but he could not find anything about this man after a survey. He could say for sure that Huangfu Yi was a big figure.

Murong Xue went forward and shook his arm to beg him, "Yisen, don't be angry with me. There is nothing between him and me. He is my family, just like my parents, so..."

"But he does not come from your family. You said his memory would come back in a few days. What should you do at that time?" Chu Yisen was not mad at her at all. He was worried about her and was a little jealous as well.

"By then I will be glad if he regards me as his sister. If not, I won't force him, either." Murong Xue knew that it would not be easy for her to part with him by then.

Chu Yisen gave her a hug, patted her on the back, and comforted her softly, "Silly girl, you've done far more than enough for a stranger." She didn’t have to pay so much attention to Huangfu Yi. What was on Chu Yisen’s mind now was that Huangfu Yi was such a lucky man to have her who cared about him as a family because now he could see her reluctance to lose the brother.

"Yisen, you're important to me, too. You always take care of me like my big brother." Murong Xue embraced his warm hug and thanked him in a tender voice.

Chu Yisen raised a bitter yet willing smile, but she did not see it. "Sure, I'll protect you." He wanted to be her special one instead of her big brother, but he knew she did not feel the same way as he did. Moreover, he did not want to bother her at this time when she was suffering from breaking up with Shangguan Mo.

Murong Xue broke away a little from his arms and asked, "Speaking of which, do you have a girlfriend, Yisen? You should introduce me to her if you do. I don't know much about you, so you should tell me more." She felt that friends should know each other well, but she did not know why he would get upset sometimes.

"No, I don't. I'm too busy working to have a girlfriend." What he did not say was that he was unwilling to be with others or even look at someone else since he fell in love with her.

"I wonder who could be so lucky to be your wife. I believe she will be the happiest woman in the world." Murong Xue smiled while feeling sorry for herself who failed to have a happy ending with the man she met.

"If I can't meet someone to love and you can't find your Mr. Right, why don't we make a pair?" Chu Yisen asked, half joking and half in earnest.

Murong Xue took it as a joke, so she agreed happily, "Okay, but I believe there are so many women out there waiting to be your girlfriend. You will meet someone."

"Who told you that? There is no woman. If I meet someone I love, I'll be devoted to her and cherish her. I will never let what happened to my mother..." Chu Yisen stared at Murong Xue while saying these.

But Murong Xue missed his eyes. She just thought that Chu Yisen was a good man who could make his future wife a happy woman. She knew she had lost her chance and she doubted whether Shangguan Mo had forgotten her now. Anyhow, he now was a painful hole in her heart, reminding her of the past from time to time.

After the conversation, Chu Yisen went back to his room and started working, while Murong Xue stayed in her room to preview her textbooks and special cases Professor Bai gave her. Some of the cases were still waiting for a cure, so she was working on that while keeping an eye on Huangfu Yi.

Long Yi had gone out since noon and there were only two men guarding the gate.

After some time, Murong Xue heard some noise from the bed, so she put down the book and went over immediately, "Yi, you're awake. How do you feel?" She asked in a worried voice and felt his forehead and his pulse.

He did not answer her. After a long time, Murong Xue realized something and turned to look at him, only to find his cold eyes, thin lips, and a pondering face. She suddenly knew that he was a different person now.

So she withdrew her hand and asked carefully with a mixed look, "Did you retrieve your memory?" The moment came so quickly that she felt very upset. She did not want to lose a brother.

However, Huangfu Yi raised a smile as he usually did, "Sister, what are you talking about? I don't understand." His tone was also the same as before, which made Murong Xue doubt whether she had an illusion.

She felt strange that his memory had not come back yet, and now she had mixed feelings about it. On the one hand, she was happy that he could be her brother for a longer time. On the other hand, she was worried about why he did not fully recover now. She asked again, "Yi, do you remember what happened before?"

"What happened? Sister, my head, it hurts..." Huangfu Yi frowned and knocked his own head. He looked very painful.

Murong Xue grabbed his hand to stop him and said in a distressed voice, "It's okay that you don't remember. Stop thinking about it now. You've had nothing this afternoon. I'll go get some porridge for you. Why don't you lie down and rest for a while?" She tucked him in and went downstairs to the kitchen.

Huangfu Yi's eyes changed after she left him and now he looked nothing like the one who had cried for help in front of Murong Xue.

At the same time, Murong Xue took out a Saussurea of one thousand years from the Space and boiled its petals with the porridge by using the spiritual water as the Saussurea was beneficial to those with head injuries. But she somehow felt uneasy. She had checked him with golden needles and found the blood stasis had faded, so she had no idea why he did not retrieve his memory.

Although she liked this brother, she wished him healthy.

When Murong Xue brought the porridge upstairs, she saw Huangfu Yi leaning against the head of the bed and thinking about something. Though he seemed very peaceful, she sensed something different from the same face. She could feel the change in his vibe, but she did not know why.

"Yi, you must be hungry. Have some porridge first." Murong Xue put down the tray on the table nearby the bed and served a bowl of it to Huangfu Yi.

"Sister, I have no strength. My hands..." Huangfu Yi's hands were shaking when he tried to take over the bowl.

Murong Xue felt that he could spill the porridge any moment now. The porridge was very hot, so she didn’t dare to let go of her hand. "Then let me feed you." She thought that the reason he had no strength was that he was exhausted today and he passed out this afternoon without eating anything.

"Huh, my good Sister."

Murong Xue smiled and blew the porridge to cool it before she fed him.
