Chapter 69: Master Wan (1/2)
Translator: Storm in a Teacup
When Hong Yu returned to the room, Ye Chengzhi and Bian Wen had already left. Silver and Zhao Xiaotao stayed at An Rushuang’s bedside, vigilantly staring at the woman in white.
Smiling, the woman still wore a delicate make-up in the evening, calling An Rushuang “sister”.
An Lingshan!
Leaning back against the pillow, An Rushuang looked tired with eyes closed. Obviously she did not want to talk with An Lingshan.
Being stared by them, An Lingshan was very clear of Rushuang’s attitude. So she said directly, “Sister, you suffered a lot these days. I’ve been to Five-altar Temple to ask for a talisman for sister, which can protect you from disasters and diseases.”
Saying so, the servant girl behind An Lingshan brought a piece of yellow paper to An Rushuang. Hong Yu took the paper and bowed to An Lingshan, “Thank you for your kindness. It’s late now. Miss An has just woken up and she needs rest. So if you have nothing to tell Miss An, please leave.”
An Rushuang still closed her eyes.
Nothing to tell her? How could it be nothing?
Looking at An Rushuang being so weak, An Lingshan couldn't help feeling excited. But when thinking that she had ruined her opportunity to the banquet, An Lingshang turned furious. Although she didn't go the Princess Mingxi’s banquet, there must be something exciting to happen tomorrow…
But it was better if An Rushuang couldn't recover soon.
Thinking so, An Lingshan said, “Sister, you look in low spirits. Sleeping too much could also be harmful. How about we have a talk…”
“No, I am good,” An Rushuang frowned. An Lingshan must have some wicked ideas.
“I…” When An Lingshan was about to saying something, she heard someone at the doorsteps.
“Rushuang has just woken up. Please leave here and let her rest, Lingshan,” said Lord An in a low and tired voice before he went in the room.
“Dad!” An Lingshan hurried to An Yipei.
Waving his hand, An Yipei looked exhausted, “Go away.”
Hearing this, An Lingshan couldn't help grinding her teeth, “All right! I’ll come to see sister tomorrow. Have a good rest!”
However, An Rushuang thought to herself, “Please do not come tomorrow and forever!”
After a while, when An Rushuang looked up, there was only An Yipei in the room. An Lingshan had left.
Slowly walking towards the bed, An Yipei stopped An Rushuang from getting up.
“Dad?” Looking at Lord An, An Rushuang said in confusion.
With slightly red eyes, An Yipei said in a hoarse voice, “No need to get up. You need rest.”
Smiling, An Rushuang said, “It’s late now. What happened, dad? Hong Yu, prepare some tea.”
Hearing this, Hong Yu quickly replied a “Yes”.
“No, I’m ok. I’ll just stay for a while.”
Sitting at the bedside, An Yipei looked carefully at Rushuang and reached out to touch her hair. Seeing her pale face, An Yipei said in a low voice, “My good girl, it’s dad’s fault. I’m so sorry. Rushuang, I won’t stop you from doing anything in the future. I shoudn’t have…”
Saying so, An Yipei lowered his head and didn't know what to say in front of his injured daughter.
