The next day, sunlight streamed in. Lin Nuo carried the medicine Leng Yaozhu had personally brewed into Ya Li's room. The moment he opened the door, the girl was already sitting up in bed, waiting for him.
When she saw Lin Nuo enter with the medicine, her beautiful pale emerald eyes instantly lit up. "Morning..."
Yesterday, she had actually forgotten to ask her lifesaver's name. Embarrassed, she blushed.
Seeing her awkwardness, Lin Nuo walked over and answered, "Lin Nuo."
"My name is Ya Li. Please take care of me, Benefactor Lin Nuo."
"Just call me Ano. No need to be so formal." Lin Nuo sat down. He had always been easygoing, provided someone was one of his own. After stirring the medicine with a spoon, he blew on it to cool it. "Come on, open your mouth. Ah~"
Ya Li obediently opened her mouth, and Lin Nuo fed her the medicine. He also reminded her, "This medicine won't be as bitter as yesterday's. Yesterday, I used some powerful tonic ingredients on you, so this one won't taste as bad. Just rest and recuperate over the next few days, and you'll be fine."
"I'll repay you!"
"Repay what?" Lin Nuo was puzzled, but quickly realized what she meant. Unbothered, he said, "You don't even have a penny to your name right now. Take care of yourself first."
"I'll be a good bandit chief's wife for you."
Lin Nuo: "???"
The moment Ya Li said that, Lin Nuo nearly dropped the bowl of medicine in his hand. He had not expected this little angel to have truly taken yesterday's words to heart.
He tentatively asked, "You weren't thinking about this all night, were you?"
Ya Li nodded seriously. Her lovely oval face dipped lightly, her eyes clear and bright, looking utterly solemn.
