Chapter 65: Falling Sick (1/2)
Translator: Storm in a Teacup
It was the first time Lord An slapped her in the face since they met each other. Madam Zhang was so panicked that she suddenly went on her kneels.
Helping her mother up, An Lingshan cried to beg Lord An, “Dad, mum has nothing to do with this issue. It’s all my fault. I do not know why there are two invitations and I have no idea why there is an invitation from Princess Mingxi under my trousseau…”
Full of tears, An Lingshan cried as if she had been severely wronged.
“Daddy, you trust in my sister. So do I. But sister also got an invitation, why are you so sure it was mum who tried to play sister and I against each other?!”
Not realizing An Yipei’s anger, An Lingshan kept defending herself as if she was upholding justice.
Throwing the invitation to her, An Yipei said coldly, “Humph! Look what you did! I am tired now. Just leave, all of you.”
Touching his forehead, An Yipei went away with Lady An to the inner room.
An Lingshan picked up the invitation which looked exactly the same as the other. However, when she opened it, the contents were totally different. One was the invitation for them; the other was a declining letter.
It was An Rushuang’s declining letter for Princess Mingxi. She said that she felt unwell these days and An Lingshan would attend the banquet instead.
How could this be?!
This time An Lingshan lost the battle completely, directly falling into An Rushuang’s trap.
Looking up deeply at An Rushuang for a while, An Lingshan suddenly stood up and went away. Seeing this, Madam Zhang called her and followed her away.
Now An Rushuang could finally feel relieved. Suddenly she felt the headache came back like tornado, making her body as stiff as a heavy stone.
“Miss An, let’s go back. You suffered a lot today.” Saying so, Hong Yu patted on her own head, “Oh, Mr. Ye is still outside. I asked him to diagnose for you after everything settles down…”
But she didn't expect An Lingshan would make such a scene just now. They had not done anything.
“Then call him in. Xiaotao is also injured.”
An Rushuang knew today would not be a good time to ask dad to help Xiaotao. It would be better to put it off to tomorrow when the case was dealt with. It would not be too late.
Thinking so, An Rushuang turned back but suddenly she felt feeble and her head was dizzy before she heard Hong Yu and Xiaotao screaming and everything became vague to her.
Seeing this, Hong Yu reached out to feel An Rushuang’s head and was shocked, “She got a fever!” An Rushuang was so feverish as if she was a burning fire.
Hearing the screams, Lord An and Lady An also came out to see what happened. On seeing Rushuang falling on the ground, Lady An instantly became tearful. An Yipei immediately lifted her up and said in a low voice, “Zhong Yi, send for a physician.”
Wiping her tears, Hong Yu said, “Lord An, there is a physician outside Liuxi pavilion. Miss An is badly injured. The physician is for her. But Miss An insists to see you first… and she is…”
Hong Yu couldn't even finish the whole sentence. She cried in a low voice.
Hearing this, An Yipei felt more guilty. He softly put Rushuang to the bed, but when he stood upright, he found that his hand was full of blood!
