Inside the room, the two exchanged a glance.
Qu Tan'er smiled faintly, stood up, and approached Mo Liancheng with concern, "My lord, didn't you say you were going to rest? Why have you gotten up?"
"I can't be at ease." How could he be at ease leaving her with that man?
He had tried to pretend to be generous for a while, but he regretted it as soon as he lay down.
Standing silently at the doorway, he heard all of her words.
He gently pulled her close to his chest, "Tan'er, I will be fine. Don't worry."
"Really, you won't have any issues?"
"Hmm, no, I won't."
"Alright, I believe you!"
Indeed, she believed him!
In the afternoon, Mo Liancheng went back to the alchemy room.
Qu Tan'er stayed by his side, and when she saw him bustling about the pile of herbs, she assisted him.
Meanwhile, he taught her how to identify medicinal herbs and explained some basic knowledge.
To her, this seemed easier to remember than reading books on her own.
