Chapter 266 Urgent illness
Chapter 266 Urgent illness
I began to tremble, not knowing if his trust would be completely destroyed at this point if he knew that I was from another world, that I already knew his story in advance, and that I had arbitrarily interfered with his fate and had a relationship with him that should not have happened.
He loosened his grip on my wrist, his eyes darkened slightly, "Look, I can also cheat Qian Mu the same way you did. It's just that I never used any tricks on you. Do you dare to say that you have never lied to me?"
The panic in my heart subsided, and another kind of fear surged into my heart.
There was a trace of sadness in his eyes. He took a step back and looked at me with his eyes clearly. "I'm scared of being cheated. Thank you for saving me. I will pay you back. Go back and think about what you need and I'll earn it for you. The old accounts and past friendships are written off. I don't understand this account, so I'll just forget about it. From now on, I'll be my Ye Shiqi and you'll be your Bai Ruping or Lanxiang. Take care of yourselves."
After saying that, he turned around and walked away on the snow.
Although I could catch up with him and tell him about my long journey, what would be the use? Every night when he was in pain and couldn't sleep, lying in bed with broken bones and tendons, tossing and turning in sorrow must have been very long.
His heart was already empty, and he finally found a new place of peace of mind here. I couldn't bear to fill it with past events and force him to choose between me and Xiaoyao.
If Xiaoyao wins, then it will be no different from the current situation, so there is no need for me to say anything, as it will only add to his sadness.
If I win, maybe one day I will wear it back inexplicably, leaving him alone with a look of shock.
I shouldn't have disturbed his peace.
He originally just wanted to be Ye Shiqi.
Xiaowei returned to her residence in a daze and said that Gui Fangduan had already left.
My aching heart twitched weakly once more. Well, love debts are hard to repay, and I really don't have any extra energy to pay him back.
That night, I developed a fever.
Wang Shiba thought that Qiao Bin had passed the disease on to me, and was so scared that he went to buy a bunch of medicine and food for Xiao Wei, and then quickly took Qiao Bin back home.
This illness came so suddenly that I was drowsy and felt either sleeping or coughing and having a fever. I don’t know how many days I lay in bed.
Sometimes I vaguely felt Xiaowei changing the scarf on my forehead, or heard Wang Shiba's loud voice discussing with her about changing a doctor.
Sometimes the daily life of Tushan Mansion plays out before my eyes, and I simply don’t know whether this is a dream or Qingshui Town is the dream.
That day I actually dreamed of Ye Shiqi. He was looking at me with a frown on his face. I wanted to talk to him, but my throat felt like it was on fire and I couldn't make a sound. I guess he must have felt the same way when his throat was destroyed.
He took out a small bottle from his arms and said to Xiaowei, "Xiaoliu gave her the medicine and said she knew what was in it."
After saying that, he put the small bottle on the small cabinet beside the bed, looked at me again, turned and left.
I shouted silently in my dream, shouting the name of someone who couldn't answer me.
I can’t remember the second half of the dream. My body was hot and cold and I could see all kinds of colors.
I woke up from the dream and my fever went away.
But I was very weak, like an old dog that was afraid of the cold, and I stayed in my quilt coughing all day long.
Xiaowei closed the shop and took care of me for a while. Listening to her chattering, I feel like I have missed a lot of things.
She said that Chuanzi got married and Sang Tianer moved into Huichun Hall. Wang Shiba came to see me several times, thinking that Qiaobin had passed the disease on to me, and he felt guilty and brought me all kinds of medicines in an attempt to make me better.
Xiangliu actually came to see me once, wanting to use his spiritual power to help me. Xiaowei told him that she had tried it, but after losing some spiritual power, it was like a drop in the ocean. I even coughed more severely, so Xiangliu gave up. Xiaowei said that they guessed that it was because of weakness that could not be supplemented.
I vaguely thought that it was probably the aftereffect of Master Huang's evil method.
Finally, the news reached Seventeen, and he and Xiaoliu came over to take my pulse. Not long after I went back, Seventeen came again with a small bottle of medicine.
The medicine worked and I was able to open my eyes and get up the next day.
I listened to her talk while covering myself with a quilt and drinking hot soup. My mind felt fuzzy and I could only understand it superficially.
Now, I probably owe Xiaoliu my life.
in case……
I mean, if I had continued to be sick like that, would I have been able to go back?
I lowered my eyes, the hot steam from the soup rose up, and I felt my eyes become moist.
I saved him and he thanked me.
If I lie to him, he will be angry with me.
I can't remember how many lies I told him. Maybe at first, this was just a fate that I stole, so my sadness at this moment can be regarded as a punishment for lying.
I just kept taking care of myself in a daze, and gradually I got better.
Once my body recovered, my fragile mental state also eased.
Since I can't go back for the time being, just do what I need to do.
It would be rude not to come and thank you for saving my life.
I ordered the best mulberry wine from Xuan, bought the finest beef and mutton from Gao the butcher, and added some homemade cakes, and Xiaowei and I took them to Huichuntang.
Perhaps they didn't expect someone to come uninvited at dinner time, so everyone in Huichun Hall was very surprised.
But Xiaoliu reacted quickly, and took the things from my hand with a smile, saying, "It just so happens that we are going to cook a few more dishes tonight. Since you two are here, why don't you eat together?"
I replied, "Okay, okay, I have to thank you for saving my life!"
Xiao Liu waved his hands and said, "You are too polite! It's just a small favor, how can it be considered a life-saving grace? My medical skills are just so-so! Maybe you are lucky and survived!"
I looked at Xiaoliu and smiled, "Sixth Brother is too modest!"
Chuanzi smiled at us with a sly look, and whispered to Xiaowei secretly, "I thought there was no hope... Did your sister and her husband finally break up? When are they getting divorced?"
Xiao Wei didn't understand and just gave him a puzzled look.
Xiao Liu ordered him, "Chuanzi! Go to the market and find Shiqi. Tell him that we don't need to buy so many vegetables today. Come back early to eat!"
When I hear this name, I still feel a little heartbroken.
But it's only for a short while, and it will be fine after a while. It will definitely be fine before he comes back.
By the time Xiaowei and I helped Sang Tianer wash and prepare all the vegetables, Shiqi was brought back by Chuanzi.
He came into the house, put down the small backpack on his back, and when he looked up, his eyes met mine.
His eyes were clear, without the sadness as when we last met in the snow, nor were they filled with overflowing emotions, just open and frank.
He nodded at me: "Are you here?"
After saying that, he turned around, washed his hands, tied on an apron, and went to the kitchen to cook.
Everyone was chatting and helping out, having a great time.
When Seventeen walked out of the kitchen and wiped the sweat from his head, the last dish was served on the table.
Xiaoliu raised his glass and gave a toast, and everyone laughed and toasted.
I tasted a bite of the dish made by Seventeen. It was light, fresh and fragrant, just the flavor he liked on a daily basis.
The young master of Qingqiu, who used to be able to make everything happen with a wave of his hand, has now retired to make soup. He is smart after all, and cooking is not a problem for him.
Maybe because too many things happened recently and it was rare for us to have some free time to catch our breath, everyone drank a lot, especially Ye Shiqi. I had just recovered from a serious illness, so no one came to persuade me to drink.
