As the sky began to dawn, Su Ming was awakened by the throbbing pain in her heart. She tried to move her body, only to realize that her entire body was firmly held in Su Ying's embrace. Above her, she could hear Su Ying's steady breathing, his chest rising and falling. Suddenly, Su Ming felt a warmth emanating from Su Ying's chest.

Unconsciously, his arm moved and a slight struggle awakened Su Yin. Subconsciously, he hugged Su Ming tightly, his voice still carrying a trace of drowsiness and confusion from just waking up, as he said, "Brother, why did you wake up so early..."

"I couldn't fall asleep, so I woke up..." Perhaps it was the indescribable tenderness that touched Su Ming's softest spot just now, as the tone at this moment sounded unprecedentedly gentle to Su Ying.

Su Ying became extremely excited and hugged Su Ming tightly in his arms, causing her to struggle for breath. Su Ming gasped, "Too... tight."

Su Ying quickly let go of him. Su Ming was panting slightly and Su Ying was stroking his back, saying, "It's my fault for making my brother uncomfortable."

As they spoke, dawn had already broken. Su Ying helped Su Ming put on his coat and let him lean back against the head of the bed. Then, he instructed his subordinates to bring in breakfast.

At this moment, Su Ming called him softly, "Ayin, wait."

The familiar address brought a joyful smile to Su Ying's face.

He quickly turned around and grabbed Su Ming's hand, asking, "Brother, what do you want me to do?"

"I don't want to eat in the room. How about we go downstairs and eat in the hall?"

"Okay, okay, okay, just that..." Su Ying's heart was completely immersed in the sound of "Ah Ying". Any request from Su Ming at this moment seemed trivial. However...

"Brother, your current body is vulnerable to catching a chill when walking downstairs due to your poor health."

"No worries, I'll just wear something thicker."

In the end, of course, Su Ming didn't have to walk by herself. After wrapping Su Ming in a thick cloak, she instinctively wanted to pick her up horizontally, but was gently blocked by Su Ming.

"I want to walk by myself, you just need to support me..."

Su Ying couldn't say anything when Su Ming was unusually obedient. He pulled him into his embrace and walked out.

Walking out of the door, just as the subordinate brought over the meal, he caught a glimpse of Su Ming being held in his arms, unable to help but take a closer look...

Su Ying immediately became unhappy: "Where are you looking?"

His subordinate quickly averted his gaze and said, "Master, I was instructed to deliver the meals."

"No need, just spread the food in the dining hall."

"Yes."

Sitting at the desk, Su Ying reached out and loosened the tightly wrapped cloak in order to make Su Ming more comfortable. Although she really wanted to feed her brother, it would be better not to provoke his anger at the moment.

Su Ming placed the vegetables into the bowl for Su Ying. Su Ying casually scanned the surroundings. Perhaps because it was too early, there weren't many people in the hall, but...

Su Ying's elusive gaze shifted towards a table of people by the window, and his attention was drawn to a man wearing a veil hat. The man's breathing was deep and powerful, without any gaps, indicating his high level of skill. Su Ying narrowed his eyes slightly. How could there be such a master in this small town? Lost in thought, a hand waved in front of him, bringing him back to reality. He saw Lin Yu holding a youtiao in one hand, nibbling on it, while the other greasy hand was swaying back and forth in front of him.

Su Ying held her forehead and used her inner strength to push him away directly. However, she forgot that there was still a weak Su Ming beside her. Feeling an extremely oppressive aura rushing towards her, every organ in Su Ming's body convulsed in pain, and a strong, sweet-sour taste filled her mouth, causing her to uncontrollably spit out a mouthful of fresh blood. In an instant, the food on the table was stained all over.

Su Ying and Lin Yu were startled. Su Ying quickly supported Su Ming, while Lin Yu went to check Su Ming's pulse.

While the two of them were wholeheartedly trying to save Su Ming, another surge of internal energy, accompanied by a murderous intent, rushed straight towards Su Ying.

At the same time, a voice filled with murderous intent rang out, "How fortunate we are to encounter the Night Feather Sect's Master here!"
