Feng Tianlan looked at Si Mobai's pale face and was still worried. "He's been like this since I woke up. He's still like this now. Is he okay?"
"Believe me, His Highness is fine. It's just that those memories suddenly came back and he can't get used to it. That's why he's in so much pain. It might take him a week or two to adjust, or..." Lapis Lazuli indicated an acceptable timeframe.
For her to make up a lie at the drop of a hat, it was not quite smooth, and she did not know how to continue it. She could only pause mid-sentence and act profoundly.
Seeing that she did not finish her sentence, Feng Tianlan became anxious instantly, "Or what?"
Lapis Lazuli did not speak. Instead, she looked at Si Mobai, seeking his opinion. How could she fabricate a lie to make Feng Tianlan believe her and not let her find out about the Heart Linking Poison?Si Mobai took the initiative to hold Feng Tianlan's hand and soothe her tenderly, "Lan'er, don't be anxious. You will frighten Lapis Lazuli. I'm really alright."
"Lapis Lazuli." She did not believe him. He must be afraid that she would worry, so he said that he was fine. It was more practical to ask Lapis Lazuli. After all, Lapis Lazuli would not lie to her.
"It is useless to ask her. After all, I am Si Mobai. Out of a sudden, I have Wu Ya's memories and was not able to bear them. Maybe I have to become him in order not to feel pain."
Si Mobai supported himself up on the bed and sat up. Leaning against the headboard, he pulled Feng Tianlan to his side. "Wu Ya is deeply in love with Yunyi. He has some control over me, so it hurts."
Feng Tianlan continued to look at Si Mobai suspiciously. She then turned to look at Lapis Lazuli. "Lapis Lazuli, tell me."
"I have never encountered such a situation before. There is no record of it in the Pill Scroll either, so I don't know. However, it's His Highness' body and brain, he ought to know best. Otherwise, you can ask the State Preceptor." Lapis Lazuli quickly pushed the ball out of her court.
She was not very good at lying, especially when she had to weave a lie on the spur of the moment. If she was not careful, Feng Tianlan would see through it, so it was better for the others to lie.Feng Tianlan looked at Si Mobai, his pained expression had somewhat eased, and she felt relieved. She softened her tone, "You must tell me when you're in pain. Don't hide it from me."
"My pain will cease when you call me husband," said Si Mobai with a gentle and doting smile on his wan face. It was so heartwarming in the cold late autumn.
Feng Tianlan nodded shyly and whispered, "Husband."
They were married, but they were used to calling each other by their names, so it was hard for her to adjust at once.
"Wife." Si Mobai smiled. Just hearing her calling him husband, gave him a great sense of happiness. At the same time, he felt immense pain. However, when compared to happiness, it was negligible.
"You insisted that I call you Mobai. If not..." recalling the past, a radiant smile appeared on her lips.
She used to resist him vehemently. Who knew she would love him so intensely now.
"What you mean is, if you don't call me husband, I will kiss you, or..." before Si Mobai could finish speaking, his mouth was covered by a pair of hands that were lightly scented. He looked at her with a smile.
Lapis Lazuli looked at both of them bantering affectionately.. She noticed Feng Tianlan blushing and knew that she was being a third wheel now, so she quietly retreated.
