Chapter 295 Pill Refining Draws Lightning (1/2)

”Father, say, the child Qing Ge has already been in there for three days and nights. Could anything have happened to her? Why not I go in to take a look?”

Feng Xiao said a little worriedly as he stood outside the courtyard's doors and was stopped from going in. Hence, he started to wonder what the situation was really like inside.

The Old Patriarch glanced at him and said: ”Don't you see that even I am standing out here to wait? Little Feng has said that no one must go in to disturb her and she will come out on her own when she wants to. Don't worry, nothing will happen.”

Although that was what he said, but his eyes would occasionally turn to look towards the courtyard.

Saying that he was not anxious, he was not worried, that was all false. It had already been three days and nights and besides having Leng Shuang deliver some food to her, the la.s.s had not gone back to rest at all. Would it really be okay for her to slog on like that?

Thinking about it, he then looked at Leng Shuang standing guard inside the courtyard and asked: ”Will you go in to see again whether she will be coming out soon?”

However, Leng Shuang remained standing in her spot and said: ”Mistress ordered me to stand guard here and without her summons, I am not to go inside to disturb her.” Pausing a moment, she continued to say: ”Old Master, Family Head, you should just go back first. It will be fine with me keeping guard here.”

”Sigh! Alright then! If anything happens, you must inform us immediately.” Old Patriarch Feng said and he turned around to walk away but saw Feng Xiao still standing there. He then called out: ”Are we going? What are you standing there in a daze for? Is there anything to be worried about here in our own house?”

Feng Xiao looked at his father in speechlessness as he thought to himself: [He is obviously so worried himself and here is him admonis.h.i.+ng me.]

But he did not continue to stay outside the courtyard but followed the Old Patriarch to leave.

Seeing the two men depart, Leng Shuang then retracted her gaze back and quietly kept guard, not allowing anyone to come close. After about two hours, she detected a strong scent of herbal fragrance wafting through the air. She was properly surprised as she turned to gaze towards the Alchemy Room.

[Has the Mistress succeeded?]
