C143 (1/2)

When he woke up again, the clamor outside the door had long ceased.

Gu Liu Yan felt like there was a fire burning in her throat, and her body was incredibly heavy. Just lifting her eyelids had expended too much energy, so she could only vaguely see a gray-haired elder by the bed.

The Scarlet Scorpion stood at the side and stomped its feet anxiously. ”Brother, I told you before, her body is weak! How could you still attack with such force! ”

Zhu Yan sat in his seat and rubbed his forehead with a headache.

When he came here, he had already wanted to torture and humiliate her before he brought her back, but Gu Danyan's body was not weak at all. The lack of Qi and blood was one part of the problem, plus she was weak and tired, and had not absorbed any of the food she ate, her body had not fully recovered after being poisoned.

The grey-robed elder stood up with a trembling body, ”It would be best if she recuperated for ten days and was supplemented with medicine and tonics. Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to hold on for long periods of time.”

Zhu Yan ruthlessly stood up with his eyes, directly grabbing the gray-clothed old man's neck. ”Ten days!”

The grey-clothed old man's face was flushed red. The Scarlet Scorpion quickly stopped him and roared at the grey-clothed old man, ”No matter what, you have to treat her as soon as possible. You have to leave this place after three days!”

The doctor didn't dare to refuse and could only leave as fast as he could.

The Scarlet Scorpion calmed Zhu Yan down with great difficulty, but Gu Pingyan on the bed became much more clear-headed and his eyes narrowed slightly.

If three days had passed, she really didn't know how far she would have to go from Sky Flame City.

Furthermore, why didn't she know that her illness was so serious? When she thought of this, she could not help but scold herself for being so unconcerned about herself.

”You're awake?” The Scarlet Scorpion sat on the edge of the bed and gave her some water. ”How do you look like a concubine? Even the servants in the mansion are probably better off than you.”

Gu Liuyan could only let out a few hollow laughs. She struggled to get up and leaned against the bed: ”I'll give you the names of the herbs. Go and get them.”

”Huh?” The scorpion was stunned, but Gu Daiyan had already told him the names of the medicines one by one. After that, she closed her eyes: ”Plus, I'm hungry.”

The Scarlet Scorpion hurriedly pulled Wen Mo along and had her say it again before leaving in a daze.

Zhu Yan only looked at Gu Daiyan from the beginning to the end, he was still gnashing his teeth and said, ”You are quite calm.”

”If I don't face it calmly, do you think I can just cry and ask you to let me go? Or just take off your clothes and pounce under you while begging for joy? ” Gu Pingyan hummed a few syllables uncomfortably. Only then did he realize that the shackles on his hands had already disappeared. His wrists were wrapped in a thin piece of cloth. He should have already dealt with it.

Zhu Yan was obviously enraged once again. He came forward and pulled her up by his collar.

He wanted to do something, but he felt the light weight in his hand and the doctor's words. He suppressed his anger and put the man down. With a dark face, he punched the wall beside him.

Gu Danyan was shocked, but he only turned his head to look at the wall: ”Everything is useless, but I can show my worth. If it is like this, you will willingly let me stay.”

Zhu Yan turned his head to the side in shock.

This woman! How in the world did he do it? He provoked his bottom line all the time!

After an unknown amount of time, the Scarlet Scorpion had already brought in the food. After that, Gu Liuyan no longer spoke. She did not answer whatever questions the Scarlet Scorpion wanted to ask, so the brother and sister could only leave together.

As they went to another empty room, a few black-clothed men were already kneeling in front of Zhu Yan.

”Young master, no one in the Jing King's estate knows of it. I've only heard from the Wind Pavilion's young lady that Princess Jing had gone missing.”

Wind Listening Pavilion?
