A miraculous doctor descended from the heavens.

"You're awake?" Su Man'er exclaimed and turned around. She had seen Gu Feng with his eyes open in the rearview mirror.

Startled, Gu Feng smiled wryly. "So what if I'm awake? Why make such a fuss?"

However, now that he had been discovered, he could no longer pretend to be unconscious, so he sat up straight, cupped his hands in thanks, and said, "Thank you for saving my life, sister-in-law."

Su Man'er didn't understand where the life-saving grace came from. The only thing she understood in those words was the word "sister-in-law," so the next moment, her pretty face darkened!

"Who are you calling 'sister-in-law'? Do I really look that much like one?"

"Uh~"

Gu Feng was dumbfounded. Upon closer inspection, he saw that the woman's eyebrows were smooth and neat, and her hair was jet black, yet she still had the innocence of a young girl... This woman was still a virgin!

No wonder they were angry!

But that doesn't make sense. In their Liao Dynasty, women of that age would have been married long ago and would have several children.

Is there something wrong with this woman that makes her unable to get married?

Gu Feng made wild guesses in his mind.

If Su Man'er knew his thoughts, she would probably vomit hundreds of milliliters of blood on the spot.

Gu Feng clasped his hands in a gesture of apology again, expressing his deepest regret: "I'm sorry, Miss!"

From "elder sister-in-law" to "Miss," this ancient man stepped into two major pitfalls for modern women in just one encounter.

Su Man'er glared angrily at Gu Feng, her almond-shaped eyebrows furrowed: "Say it again, who are you calling 'Miss'?"

Did I call you the wrong name again?

Gu Feng felt a chill in his heart. This woman looked pretty and kind, but he never expected her to be so fierce and shrewish when she got angry!

Normally, he would definitely retaliate!

But he still doesn't understand what kind of place this is. He's unfamiliar with the area, and the only person he knows is this woman. He has to rely on her in many ways, so it seems best to be tolerant for now.

"That little..." He almost blurted out "sister" before his tongue caught up with "little," but thankfully he was quick-witted and changed his words before her gaze turned cold again: "I apologize for any offense I may have caused, sister."

The word "sister" finally made Su Man'er feel a little better, but she still grunted and asked in a gruff voice, "Who's your sister? Don't try to claim kinship with me!"

Is this woman impervious to both soft and hard approaches?

Gu Feng was finding it difficult to cope and had no choice but to pretend to be deaf and dumb.

Su Man'er noticed that this guy seemed quite honest, and although her face was still tense, she couldn't help but ask, "How are you feeling now?"

Feel?

Gu Feng looked around at the completely unfamiliar surroundings with a blank expression, then shook his head. "This feels really bad!"

Su Man'er was startled, thinking she had really hurt him, and asked anxiously, "Where is it?"

"It's no good anywhere!"

Looking at Gu Feng's lifeless face, Su Man'er felt he wasn't lying and thought she had really damaged some part of him. "What should we do? Should I take you to the hospital to get it checked out?"

Gu Feng had never heard of a hospital, but he knew about the Imperial Hospital in the palace; he had just escaped from there before dark!

He assumed that the hospital Su Man'er was referring to was the Imperial Hospital, and shook his head in alarm: "I appreciate your kindness, sister, but I'm fine. I just need to rest for a while."

Since nothing was wrong, Su Man'er really wanted to throw him two hundred yuan and let him get off the bus and leave, but looking at his bewildered yet handsome face, she couldn't help but soften her heart.

"Where do you live? Let me take you home!"

"Home?"

Gu Feng felt a pang of pain in his heart. His family was gone when he was only twelve years old. In the years of war and chaos, he wandered from place to place in order to survive!

Over the years, he did almost everything: begging, carrying manure, digging graves, carpentry, masonry, and even wearing mourning clothes and chanting Buddhist prayers for others!

Finally, by chance, he learned martial arts and medical skills. He thought he was about to make a name for himself, but instead, he brought about his death.

If this resume were written out, the Civil Affairs Bureau would definitely grant him a special allowance.

"Yes, where is your home?" Su Man'er's voice interrupted Gu Feng's thoughts.

"My home used to be in Xiulongchuan County of the Northern Liao and Southern Qi dynasties, but it was destroyed during the war!" Gu Feng shook his head and sighed deeply.

"What? What? What Liao County are you talking about? Where is the war going?" Su Man'er asked, her eyes wide.

Gu Feng reluctantly repeated the process once more.

Su Man'er finally heard him clearly, but she had never heard of such a place before, even though she was very familiar with the geography of provinces. But even if she was ignorant, how did he bring up war?

In this peaceful and prosperous era, when has there ever been a war? Could this guy have fled from the Middle East?

Unable to get the address, she changed the subject: "What about your parents?"

"My father and mother tragically passed away during the war!" Gu Feng's eyes dimmed further.

"What?"

Su Man'er's eyes widened again. Now she finally realized what was wrong with him. He wasn't thinking straight. She guessed that the bump she had just made had made him stupid!

Oh my god!

This has resulted in a huge, disfigured Buddha!

Su Man'er rubbed her temples, feeling a terrible headache. After thinking for a moment, she asked again, unwilling to give up, "So where do you live now?"

"I've lived in all sorts of places: barren mountains, wilderness, caves, dilapidated temples, and run-down ancestral halls!"

Gu Feng wasn't lying. He used to be a homeless man, living and eating at different places all the time. He never had a real home.

Su Man'er felt a chill run through her heart and asked helplessly, "Do you have a place to stay now?"

Gu Feng shook his head. He didn't even understand where this place was, so how could he possibly have a place to stay?

Su Man'er had no desire to continue the conversation with him, because she was now certain that she had indeed damaged his brain.

Why is my life so miserable?

As Su Man'er drove, she felt sorry for herself and lamented her life story.

Her parents passed away early, and her only remaining relative was her uncle, who had married into a family in the north. She lived with him for a few years, but eventually, she couldn't bear her aunt's unreasonable demands and her cousins' deliberate harassment, so she returned to her original home here alone!

She was only sixteen years old then, and eight years have passed in the blink of an eye. Thinking about the hardships and difficulties of these eight years, she couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness. Now, she's even more unlucky to have hit someone and left them mentally impaired, which makes her feel even worse.

Oh well, whatever, I did hit him. I'll just have to take him to the hospital tomorrow. What can I do? He's just unlucky!

Gu Feng was unaware that Su Man'er had already taken him for a fool, because he was completely captivated by the street scene outside the car window!

Although it was the middle of the night, Shenzhen is a well-known city that never sleeps, with bright lights and neon signs everywhere. These things, which are commonplace for modern people, were all novel to him.

It's like a country boy going to the city for the first time, except his country is a bit too far removed from the city, spanning thousands of years.

Su Man'er's home is in an urban village, a two-and-a-half-story building, an inheritance left by her parents, and a type of self-built house that is now rare in Shenzhen.

When Su Man'er parked the car in the parking lot and led Gu Feng towards the residence, nearly ten young people with brightly colored hair were sitting around a food stall at the street corner, drinking and having a late-night snack. They had obviously just come from a disco or bar and were finishing up the last activity of their nightlife here.

The crowd stared in astonishment, rolled their eyes, and then burst into laughter and whistles as a stylish modern woman led a man who looked like he had just stepped out of an ancient costume drama!

"Hey, just got off work? Business was good today, huh? You're even taking your 'softie' home for the night shift now!" A pockmarked man with an earring and an afro called out to Su Man'er in a sarcastic tone.

It's normal for people to misunderstand if I go home at this time, because this is indeed the time when the princess gets off work!

Su Man'er's outfit was indeed a bit avant-garde and daring; even the girls in the Grand Courtyard of the Liao Dynasty wouldn't dare to dress like that.

However, as the saying goes, mistakes can be forgiven, but attitudes cannot.

Even if she really is a princess, what business is it of yours?

Su Man'er, leading Gu Feng who was dressed in a mismatched manner, was initially only slightly embarrassed, but when she heard the men's inappropriate remarks, she became annoyed.

However, since there were so many people on the other side, she still held back.

Gu Feng didn't react much because he didn't understand what the man was saying. What did "water fish" mean?

What puzzled him even more was why these men were dressed in such colorful clothes like women, and why they had their hair piled up on their heads like cow dung!

When the acne-faced man's companion saw that Su Man'er didn't respond and instead lowered her head to pull the strangely dressed rich guy away, he became even more excited!

Amidst the laughter, the blond-haired man next to the acne-faced guy staggered out, seemingly drunk, and blocked Su Man'er's path. "Hey, are you deaf? Our boss is talking to you!"

"I don't know you, get out of the way, I want to go home!"

Su Man'er tried to walk around the blond-haired man in an annoyed manner!

If I can't afford to offend you, can't I at least avoid you?

"Go home? With this sucker?" The blond-haired man sneered disdainfully, pulled out a few crumpled old-fashioned bills from his radish-shaped jeans, and waved them in front of Su Man'er. "How much for the night? Name your price!"

After saying that, he pointed at Gu Feng again, "Hey, you idiot, are you sleepwalking? Get the hell out of here, our boss has his eye on this girl!"

Some people drink a few cups of cat urine and think they are the masters of the world.

Little did they know that some people in this world look like soft persimmons, but when you squeeze them, you find that they are actually cacti inside.
