Chapter 402: Chapter 389: Panic

Although doctors were not hard to find, most were male, which could be quite inconvenient.

Earlier, Chu Jinnian had specifically mentioned bringing a female doctor, which would definitely make it easier to examine her injuries in detail.

“indeed, Miss Zhuang could stay at Qingzhuyuan for the night. It would save her the trouble of having to rush back home afterwards,” Fan Wenxuan echoed.

After considering it, Zhuang Qingning did not decline, “Then I shall impose on Master Chu and Mr. Fan.”

“There’s no need to mention imposition, we would be delighted,” Fan

Wenxuan stroked his beard.

This way, Zhuang Qingning would have a chance to meet the talented young men that he had educated…

The writings that they have penned, and the paintings that they have produced, perhaps she could find one amongst them that met her approval, selecting the best marriage partner for her earlier.

Excellent, truly excellent.

As Fan Wenxuan thought about this, a wave of satisfaction swept over him.

However, why did he feel a chill down his spine?

After all, it was August and the mornings and evenings were quite chilly. The cooling effect was inevitable when riding in a fast-moving carriage.

Fan Wenxuan felt his neck shrink, and then began planning for his own affairs.

Zhuang Qingning, who was somewhat exhausted, sat on one side of the carriage. She leaned against a soft pillow, covered herself with the thin blanket provided in the carriage and could not help yawning.

The swaying of the carriage gradually made her even sleepier. Zhuang Qingning simply closed her eyes, leaned against the soft cushion and comfortably fell asleep.

When Zhuang Qingning opened her eyes again, what she saw was the familiar ceiling of a canopy, similar to the one she had seen when she had stayed at Qingzhuyuan the previous time.

This is…

Could it be that she was so deeply asleep that someone had carried her from the carriage into the house without her noticing?

Zhuang Qingning tried to sit up with some effort.

“Sister, you’re awake!” Zhuang Qingning’s awakening brought immense joy to Zhuang Qingsui, who quickly propped her up and slipped a soft pillow behind her to make her more comfortable when sitting up.

After making sure Zhuang Qingning was comfortably seated, Zhuang Qingsui quickly brought her a cup of tea. “Sister, how are you feeling now? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?”

“Earlier, a female doctor examined you and stated that you hadn’t sustained any bone injuries. Although the wounds on your body might appear shocking, they are just superficial and will heal within a few days of applying ointment.” “She also said that the reason you slept so deeply was because of the shock you received today. She advised you to get plenty of rest. Only then did I feel relieved and stayed by your side while you slept.”

Zhuang Qingning gave a slight smile and reached out to touch Zhuang Qingsui’s little head.

Looking at the darkness outside, and then at the candle burning on the table, she asked with a smile, “What time is it now?”

“It’s just after dusk. Are you hungry, Sister?” Zhuang Qingsui asked with a smile.

“Everyone hasn’t had dinner yet. They said they were waiting for you to wake up so we could all eat together. However, this afternoon, Jinzhou and I ate some of the mooncakes you made, so we are not starving.”

Upon hearing about food, especially mooncakes, Zhuang Qingning’s belly responded with tiny growls.

“I’m indeed hungry,” said Zhuang Qingning, rubbing her empty belly.
