"…" Shu Mingshen was so scared that his face turned pale, and he quickly raised the flower pot to protect his head.

He thought that he would hear the sound of the flower pot breaking, but after standing there for a long time, not only did the flower pot in his hand not break, but there were also a few whines from the opposite side, followed by the muffled sound of something heavy falling to the ground …

"…" Shu Mingshen plucked up his courage and slowly put down the flower pot in his hand. Then, he saw that the few ruffians were hugging their own heads that had been hit by something and were bleeding profusely. They were rolling on the ground and howling in pain.

Shu Mingshen was surprised, but the ruffians had already scrambled up from the ground, and ran out of the alley as if they had seen a ghost.

Not long after those people left, Shu Mingshen saw Agy coughing lightly as he walked in from outside the alley.

Shu Mingshen quickly asked, "Agy, why are you here?"

And what's going on with those people just now?

Agy looked at him and said, "Because I saw that you hadn't gone back so late, I was afraid that something might have happened, so I came out to take a look …"

Afraid that Shu Mingshen would continue to ask, Agy turned his gaze to the person lying on the ground after he finished speaking, and frowned slightly, "He is …?"

Only then did Shu Mingshen remember that there was an unlucky guy who had almost been beaten to death. He hurriedly let out an "aiya" and went forward to check on the man's condition while explaining to A 'Ji, "I'm not sure either. When I came, I happened to see a few hoodlums beating him up, so I got hot-headed and wanted to stop them …"

Shu Mingshen told Agy what had just happened.

A 'Ji didn't seem to be surprised when he heard this. He just nodded calmly and then said thoughtfully, "Do you want to take this person back?"

Hearing this, Shu Mingshen scratched his head as if he was a little embarrassed. However, this person was already completely unconscious at this moment. He couldn't just leave him in a place like this, so he could only say to A 'Ji, "Let's do this for now. We'll talk about other things after he wakes up …"

Agy didn't say much, and went outside to find a cart according to Shu Mingshen's instructions. Then, they worked together to push the man on the ground and the few pots of flowers that Hua Manlou had given them back home.

By the time they reached the door, sweating profusely, Dongfang Bubai had already returned, and was sitting at the stone table in the courtyard, leisurely drinking by himself.

When he saw what was piled on the cart that Shu Mingshen and Agy brought back together, he didn't wait for Shu Mingshen to greet him, frowned, and said with a look of disdain, "What strange things did you pick up this time?"

Shu Mingshen raised his hand to wipe the sweat on his forehead, and said with a smile, "This young master fainted in the alley, and I just happened to come across him, so I lent him a hand …"

"…" Dongfang Bubai heard him and snorted coldly, but didn't say anything, still sitting at the table and drinking by himself.

Shu Mingshen and Agy moved the man to his room.

"If he lives here, where will you go?"

Agy looked at the room in front of him that was almost filled with bookshelves and books, leaving only a bed that could barely fit a person, and said to Shu Mingshen.

"It doesn't matter, I'll sleep on the ground." Shu Mingshen didn't care, he couldn't let the wounded live on the ground.

"If you want, you can live with me," Agy tilted his head and thought for a moment, then said to him after a while, "It's better than living on the ground."

Shu Mingshen smiled and shook his head, "Your injuries haven't healed yet, it's better to rest well."

"Don't worry, I'm in good health!"

Shu Mingshen said, deliberately straightening his chest that wasn't broad, and assured Agy in front of him, "Besides, it's just sleeping on the ground for a few days, it's not autumn yet outside, it won't be anything serious!"

Agy didn't say much, and could only nod under Shu Mingshen's smiling gaze, then turned and walked out of the room.

On the other hand, Shu Mingshen treated the wounds on the body and face of the young man in white brocade clothes. After making sure that the young man didn't have any signs of fever and was only unconscious for the time being, Shu Mingshen laid out the mat. Then, he hugged a thin blanket and laid down on the ground to sleep.

Because he was too tired the day before, Shu Mingshen didn't wake up until the morning of the second day.

When he saw that the sky was already bright outside, Shu Mingshen hurriedly got up from the ground.

He turned his head to look at the injured white-clothed young master, and found that the other party was still sleeping peacefully on his bed.

"…" Shu Mingshen went forward to check on the other party's condition, and after confirming that he was still safe, he simply washed up and planned to go to the kitchen to cook. However, when he came to the kitchen door, he found that there was smoke in front of him. Agy had already cooked the porridge, and also fried two vegetables, and was about to wake him up to eat.

Shu Mingshen saw this and immediately smiled, walked forward and took the spatula in the other's hand, and said, "You go outside and wait, leave the rest to me!"

Agy saw that he had woken up, and didn't insist. He nodded, wiped his hands on his apron, then turned and walked out.

"…" Shu Mingshen looked at the other's back and couldn't help but smile, then turned his head and continued to cook.

By the time the dishes were ready, it was almost noon. Shu Mingshen found that Dongfang Bubai, who disappeared at this time every day, actually made an exception and sat at the table today. He couldn't help but look at the other with some curiosity, "…"

Dongfang Bubai frowned and looked at him, and said, "What do you want to say?"

Shu Mingshen coughed lightly, and said, "Nothing, Brother Dongfang didn't go out today?"

Dongfang Bubai casually picked up the bowl and drank a mouthful of porridge, and said with a cold face, "I didn't say that I would go out every day."

Shu Mingshen immediately smiled and said, "It's good that you don't go out, you can try my and Agy's cooking!"

Dongfang Bubai coldly snorted, and with a trace of disdain on his face, he ate the food in front of him without saying anything else, "…"

When the few of them were full, Shu Mingshen went to wash the dishes, and then carried a bowl of porridge he specially cooked to his room.

Shu Mingshen put the porridge and side dishes on the table, walked to the bedside, and raised his hand to gently nudge the still unconscious man in front of him.

"Wake up, young master …"
