After she opened her mouth, Hu Meiniang realized that her throat was a little hoarse and her head was a little painful. She subconsciously reached out to touch her forehead, but suddenly found her palm soft. She was stunned and her eyes went down along her arm. She saw that her hand was actually tightly clasped with Ao Ningshuang's hand, with their fingers intertwined.
Ao Ningshuang followed Hu Meiniang's gaze and looked at the two people's clasped hands. Her calm eyes were misty, as if she was thinking of some distant memories. After a while, she slowly withdrew her gaze, gathered her mind, exhaled lightly, and relaxed her brows. She let go of Hu Meiniang's hand, stood up and took the bowl of porridge on the table. The porridge in the bowl was hot. It was because Ao Ningshuang calculated that it was time for Hu Meiniang to wake up, so she asked the kitchen to prepare it in advance.
"It's good that you're awake. Have some porridge first. You've been comatose for a whole day and night, so you must be hungry." The two clasped hands loosened, and Hu Meiniang's eyes dimmed involuntarily. She felt lost in her heart, and heard Ao Ningshuang whispering in her ear in a daze. She didn't pay attention to what she said, but just responded in a trance, until Ao Ningshuang reached out and gently helped her up, and passed his right hand under her armpit and around in front of her body, she suddenly came back to her senses, and the next second realized that her weak body had leaned into the other's arms. Her body suddenly stiffened, her heart suddenly beat violently, her cheeks became hot, and a strange feeling passed through her heart in her nervousness.
Ao Ningshuang handed the bowl of porridge to her right hand, scooped some porridge with her left hand, blew it cool, and brought it to Hu Meiniang's mouth, "Be careful, it's hot." Leaning in Ao Ningshuang's arms, smelling her elegant fragrance, Hu Meiniang's stiff body gradually relaxed, opened her mouth, and obediently drank a few mouthfuls of porridge. After a while, she regained a lot of energy. After drinking a few more mouthfuls, she shook her head at Ao Ningshuang, looked around, and found that she was in an unfamiliar room. She raised her head slightly, met Ao Ningshuang's eyes and asked blankly: "Where is this place? Why am I here?"
At this moment, a wonderful voice suddenly came from the door of the room -
"I can answer Miss Mei Niang's questions on behalf of my elder sister." Hearing the voice, Ao Ningshuang remained expressionless and gently placed the bowl of porridge aside. Hu Mei Niang turned her head in surprise and looked in the direction of the voice, but saw that a woman in red clothes had appeared at the door of the room. She was half leaning against the door, looking at her with a scrutinizing smile.
"This is Baoan Hall." Seeing Hu Meiniang's gaze looking over, Ao Qingmei's eyes curved and she smiled even more brightly: "Miss Mei Niang was injured by the thousand-year-old evil dragon spirit, and her spiritual consciousness was damaged. My eldest sister brought her back to Baoan Hall to recuperate." After a pause, she added: "Look, the bed that Miss Mei Niang is sleeping on now belongs to my eldest sister. The girl slept for a day and a night, and my eldest sister stayed by your bedside for a day and a night."
"Second sister." Ao Ningshuang raised her eyes and glanced at Ao Qingmei, her eyes calm and slightly helpless.
"Okay, I won't say much." Ao Qingmei automatically kept silent, her eyes moved and she smiled at Hu Meiniang who was staring at her in a daze. Her face, as bright as spring flowers, suddenly became very charming.
"Evil dragon spirit..." Hu Meiniang was stunned for a moment, and her thoughts gradually became clear. She slowly remembered the battle on Phoenix Mountain. A sinister and evil face suddenly flashed through her mind. Her delicate body trembled, and she was still frightened. Her pretty face turned slightly pale.
"It's all over. Don't think too much about it." Seeing Hu Meiniang's expression, Ao Ningshuang felt pity in her eyes. She reached out and held her hand, saying comforting words.
The warmth from her palm suddenly made Hu Meiniang feel at ease. She was a little surprised at her inexplicable dependence on Ao Ningshuang. She was absent-minded for a moment, and suddenly thought of other people. She raised her eyes to look at Ao Ningshuang anxiously: "By the way, Miss Ao, how is Caiyin? Is she injured? And are the purple-clothed lady and her friends okay?"
Ao Ningshuang said gently: "They are all fine. Miss Caiyin is also in Baoan Hall. You don't have to worry."
"That's good." Hearing this, Hu Meiniang couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief.
"You just woke up, your body is still weak, you need to rest more." Ao Ningshuang helped Hu Meiniang lie down again, tucked the corner of the quilt for her, lowered his eyes to meet Hu Meiniang's eyes, paused, and advised: "Sleep a little longer, I will wake you up for dinner."
Hu Meiniang nodded gently. For some reason, she could not help but obey Ao Ningshuang's words. She looked at Ao Ningshuang steadily and slowly closed her eyes, but suddenly opened them again, as if she suddenly remembered something more important. Her expression changed and she became a little panicked. Seeing this, Ao Ningshuang hurriedly asked, "Meiniang, what's wrong?"
"One day and one night... Miss Ao, you just said that I was unconscious for a day and a night?" Hu Meiniang looked at Ao Ningshuang and asked nervously. Ao Ningshuang nodded silently, and her face suddenly turned pale: "Then I have been away from Phoenix Mountain for nearly two days, right?"
Looking at Hu Meiniang who looked uneasy, Ao Ningshuang frowned slightly and asked softly: "Meiniang, what are you worried about?"
"Caiyin and I are under the control of King Jinba. If he knew that we left Phoenix Mountain without permission, he would not let us off easily." King Jinba is the king of Phoenix Mountain. All the fairies in Phoenix Mountain are under his control. Anyone who wants to leave Phoenix Mountain must ask for his permission. Only with his permission can they leave. Otherwise, they will be severely punished if they leave the mountain without permission. This time, she and Caiyin have been away for two days without his permission. Although there are reasons, King Jinba will not pay attention to their reasons. If he returns to Phoenix Mountain one day, he will definitely be severely punished. It would be fine for her, but she implicated Caiyin for no reason. What should she do
How much suffering did Mei Niang endure in this mortal world? Seeing that Hu Mei Niang was so afraid of the King Jin Ba, Ao Ningshuang felt mixed emotions, distressed and guilty, and the pity in her eyes became stronger.
Jinba Dharma King? That guy that Caiyin mentioned! Ao Qingmei also frowned. She remembered that on Phoenix Mountain that day, Caiyin also mentioned Jinba Dharma King with fear on her face. She didn't expect Hu Meiniang to be very afraid of him. Pursing her lips, Ao Qingmei was extremely disdainful. She moved her lotus steps lightly and walked forward. She lowered her eyes and looked at Hu Meiniang who was uneasy. She raised her eyebrows and said proudly: "Miss Mei Niang, you can relax. With us sisters here, no monster can hurt you and Caiyin at all." That Jinba was just a monster who bullied the weak. It would be fine in the past, but now that Hu Meiniang was someone that the eldest sister cared about, there was no reason for Jinba to bully her.
"Thank you, Miss Ao." Hu Meiniang looked at Ao Qingmei gratefully.
Seeing that she was worried, Ao Qingmei couldn't help but shake his head, chuckled and glanced at Ao Ningshuang beside him, and said to Hu Meiniang meaningfully: "Miss Meiniang, it is not difficult for the eldest princess of the East China Sea Dragon Palace to protect someone well."
