"I didn't expect this small larkspur to be so troublesome."
Zhuge Lan said softly.
Su Biluo nodded and responded:
"Yes, but precisely because of this, this experience is even more unforgettable."
Su Biluo smiled and said with relief:
"Mother's illness finally has a chance to be cured…"
Su Biluo looked at the small larkspur in her hand, her eyes full of gratitude and joy.
She turned around, looked at Zhuge Lan, and said with a slightly trembling voice:
"Zhuge Lan, if it weren't for you, I really wouldn't know what to do. We actually found this larkspur!"
Tears welled up in Su Biluo's eyes.
Zhuge Lan smiled slightly, his eyes full of tenderness:
"Biluo, it's all fate. You are so persistent for your mother, even the heavens will be moved by your filial piety."
Su Biluo's eyes gradually turned red, she held back her tears, her voice choked as she said:
"You don't know, my mother's illness has always been my biggest concern. I've been running around these days, but I still can't find a way to cure my mother. Now, with this larkspur, my mother finally has hope."
Zhuge Lan gently patted Su Biluo's shoulder and comforted her:
"Don't be sad, now that we've found the larkspur, let's hurry back and treat your mother."
Su Biluo nodded vigorously, tears finally streaming down her face.
She gently wiped away her tears and said:
"Zhuge Lan, I really don't know how to thank you. You not only helped me find the larkspur, but also took care of me along the way. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would have given up long ago."
Zhuge Lan looked at Su Biluo's pitiful appearance, and felt a pang of pity in his heart.
He said softly:
"Biluo, you don't need to thank me. This is all I should do."
Su Biluo raised her head, looked at Zhuge Lan's handsome face and gentle eyes, and a strange feeling surged in her heart.
She knew that her feelings for Zhuge Lan were not just gratitude, but also a deeper emotion spreading in her heart.
"Zhuge Lan, why are you so good to me?"
Su Biluo asked softly.
Zhuge Lan was slightly taken aback, then smiled and said:
"Because you are a kind and brave woman. Your filial piety moves me, and I want to help you."
Su Biluo was even more moved by Zhuge Lan's words.
She lowered her head, not daring to look into Zhuge Lan's eyes again, for fear that her feelings would be discovered by him.
The two were silent for a moment, and Zhuge Lan broke the silence: "Biluo, let's go. Let's take the larkspur back now."
Su Biluo nodded and followed behind Zhuge Lan, walking down the mountain.
Along the way.
Her mood was very complicated. She was both happy for finding the larkspur and troubled by her feelings for Zhuge Lan.
She didn't know if Zhuge Lan had the same feelings for her, and she didn't dare to express her feelings easily.
But after a while, Su Biluo blinked hard, shook her head, and cleared her mind.
Su Biluo said:
"Zhuge Lan, thank you so much today. Let me treat you to dinner, the first of those ten dinners."
Zhuge Lan smiled: "Okay, I'm hungry too."
They came to a restaurant and ordered some dishes. While eating, they continued to chat, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
"Zhuge Lan, what are your plans for the future?"
Su Biluo asked.
Zhuge Lan thought for a while, shook his head and said:
"I don't know either. This time I came to this Emerald Laurel City mainly to find the larkspur. Now that the larkspur has been found, my mission is considered complete. Maybe I will leave this city next and go to the next destination."
Su Biluo said enviously:
"You are so free. I can't do it, I have to take care of my mother and can't leave her."
Zhuge Lan said:
"You are a good girl. In fact, sometimes staying in one place also has its advantages. You can be with your family and enjoy a peaceful life."
Su Biluo nodded:
"You're right. But I still envy you, you can go to many places."
Zhuge Lan smiled:
"If you have the opportunity in the future, you can go too. When your mother's illness is cured, you can feel free to do what you want to do."
Su Biluo's eyes lit up:
"Really? That's great."
Zhuge Lan said:
"Of course, is there any place you want to go?"
"I always wanted to see the sea. I heard the sea is very beautiful."
Su Biluo's eyes sparkled as if she was looking forward to the scene by the sea.
Zhuge Lan looked at the longing in Su Biluo's eyes and said with a smile:
"The sea is indeed very beautiful, an endless expanse of blue, the waves constantly beating the shore, and the sea breeze gently blowing on your face, making people feel exceptionally comfortable."
Su Biluo slightly raised the corners of her mouth, immersed in her fantasy of the sea.
After a while, she came back to her senses, looked at Zhuge Lan somewhat shyly, and asked:
"Have you seen the sea?"
Zhuge Lan nodded:
"I have seen it. It is a kind of unforgettable beauty. If you have the opportunity to go, you will definitely be deeply attracted by it."
The two continued to chat about the sea, and the atmosphere became more and more harmonious.
After they finished eating, they walked out of the restaurant.
Back at Su Biluo's house, Su Biluo's mother was lying on the bed, her face pale.
Su Biluo quickly took out the larkspur and gave it to the doctor.
The doctor carefully examined the larkspur, and then said excitedly:
"Heavens! This is really larkspur! You actually found it! This is indeed a good medicine to cure your mother's illness. I will immediately prepare the medicine for your mother."
Su Biluo and Zhuge Lan waited anxiously aside.
At this time.
A young man with delicate features and a gentle demeanor walked in.
Holding a plate of hot water in his hand, with two white towels soaked in it.
He saw Su Biluo and Zhuge Lan in the room, was first stunned, and then smiled and said to Su Biluo:
"Biluo, you're back. Why were you out for so long today?"
"Brother Jiaqi, thank you for coming to take care of my mother so late. You've worked hard."
Li Jiaqi wiped the sweat from his forehead:
"Hey, it's not hard at all, just a little effort."
"Who is this?"
Li Jiaqi looked at Zhuge Lan suspiciously and asked Su Biluo.
"This is Zhuge Lan. We met at the market this morning. He took me to Dragon Mountain today and found the legendary larkspur."
Su Biluo replied happily, her heart full of admiration.
"What? You went to Dragon Mountain? That Dragon Mountain is extremely dangerous! You kid, you don't consider other people's safety at all, do you?"
Hearing Su Biluo's words, Li Jiaqi was first shocked, and then angrily pointed at Zhuge Lan and accused him.
Zhuge Lan was also dumbfounded, and was about to say something, but Su Biluo preemptively defended Zhuge Lan:
"Brother Jiaqi, don't blame Zhuge Lan. It was my insistence on going to Dragon Mountain to find the larkspur. Zhuge Lan took good care of me along the way. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have been able to find the larkspur at all!"
