Chapter 19 (2/2)

Mi Xiaoqi didn't wake up throughout the whole process, but her face was scrunched up uncomfortably as if she was deep in pain.

After applying the ointment, Lu Lou delicately bandaged the wounds with a clean gauze.

”You should leave too. Prepare some plain congee and simple side dishes for her to eat after she wakes up.”

”Understood, w.a.n.gye.” Lu Lou bowed, then left the room, closing the doors behind her.

Alone in the room, Bei Gongyan stared at Mi Xiaoqi's exquisite face, ”Mi Xiaoqi, what spell did you cast on Benw.a.n.g so that Benw.a.n.g was unable to watch you die?”

Four hours later, Mi Xiaoqi's pale white face started to flush red.

Bei Gongyan scrunched up his brows and stretched out a hand to feel Mi Xiaoqi's forehead. When he felt her burning up, he hastily called for the Physician.

After the Physician checked Mi Xiaoqi's pulse, he instantly wrote a prescription. This concerned his family's lives, therefore he couldn't afford to make any mistakes.

The Mansion had all kinds of rare and valuable medical ingredients already ready to go, so it didn't take long for the medicine to be prepared.

Lu Lou warily held the bowl of medicine and gently placed the bowl to Mi Xiaoqi's lips. She had tried to feeding Mi Xiaoqi the medicine several times, but it just flowed out the corner of her lips.

”w.a.n.gye, what should we do? The Miss won't drink the medicine properly,” said Lu Lou anxiously, her eyes getting red and watery.

Bei Gongyan lift his robe and kneeled by Mi Xiaoqi's side and said, ”Mi Xiaoqi, wake up,” but to no avail, Mi Xiaoqi just wouldn't wake up. No matter how loud he called out her name, she kept on sleeping without a care in the world.

Bei Gongyan reached for the bowl of medicine and poured it into his mouth. With one hand he held Mi Xiaoqi's chin and placed his lips onto hers, nimbly prying them open…..

The physician and maids were both dumbstruck….

Through this unique way of feeding, Mi Xiaoqi finally drank all her medicine. After Bei Gongyan fed her the last bit of the medicine, he let out a long breath, relieved.

Everyone stood around Mi Xiaoqi, carefully guarding her.

If they were unsure of the rumors about the w.a.n.gye cheris.h.i.+ng and doting on a new concubine, now they knew it was true. Since when did their w.a.n.gye ever care about someone else? When did their w.a.n.gye ever reduce a given punishment? When did their w.a.n.gye ever take care of somebody else…..

As the first ray of sunlight streamed into the room, Mi Xiaoqi gradually opened her eyes, ”Ugh..it hurts….”

Having heard Mi Xiaoqi's voice, Bei Gongyan stood up with a swish, ”Physician.”

At the sudden call, the Imperial Physician who had fallen asleep by the side, jolted awake.

He rushed over to check on Mi Xiaoqi's condition. A few seconds later, he let out a long breath, ”Miss is out of danger now, but you should still pay close attention to her external injuries. Along with the help of the medicine for inner injuries, the Miss should be able to recover soon.”

”You shall be rewarded.”

”Thank you w.a.n.gye.”

When Lu Lou noticed that Mi Xiaoqi was regaining consciousness, a smile appeared on her face. As Bei Gongyan suddenly came back to his senses, he remembered all of the things he had done to her and sighed before gloomily leaving the room.
