Chapter 18 - Returning to a Fool
At this moment, Zhuo Qingyan was lying asleep on the bed.
After drinking the medicine sent by Ye Jingxuan, she was so tired that he could not even open his eyes anymore.
Initially, Ruo Xue thought it was because of last night, but seeing that she was extremely sleepy, she advised her to go to bed for a while.
But after sleeping for almost four hours, she still had not woken up. She couldn't help but feel a little scared, so she called for Qiu mama and Mo Yu to stand guard here.
Hearing this news, Chu Yi Chen, Yan Li and Jiang Siyue all came to bedchamber and at the same time, sent someone to get Ye Jingxuan.
Upon entering, he saw that Qiu mama was wiping her tears as she lightly patted her, as if she was coaxing a child to sleep.
Mo Yu also stood at the side with tears streaming down her face.
”What's wrong?” Chu Yi Chen asked.
Mo Yu and Qiu mama became quick-witted, and their faces immediately became a mess as they turned around to pay their respects to him.
”Qiu mama, what's going on?” Chu Yi Chen's way of calling was very familiar.
”It's alright, Miss has just gone to sleep. Ever since I woke up, I've never slept so deeply. Seeing that she slept so well, this old servant couldn't help but …” The Qiu mama said softly.
Mo Yu also nodded her head: ”Yes, Your Highness, but Miss has been talking in her sleep, as if she was calling for something.”
Chu Yi Chen walked over and just as he heard the sound of her sleep talking, her voice was very soft and he couldn't hear her clearly. He couldn't help but stretch his head forward and put his ear close to her, and he immediately heard:
”Evacuate...” Back... I'll cover... ”Fast …”
Then, as if in great discomfort, she humphed once more and said, ”It hurts …” ”So painful …”
Chu Yi Chen straightened up again, a cold light flashing through his eyes as he stared at Zhuo Qing Yan, who was still lying on the bed with her eyes closed.
But at this moment, she suddenly called out again, ”Mother, you can't drink …”
He was stunned again, his eyes wide open.
Everyone present heard this voice and they couldn't help but look at each other. Yan Li reached out to Chu Yi Chen and asked, ”What did Little Princess say? Does she know anything? ”
Chu Yi Chen was also a bit confused. He had suspected her, but now, he felt an indescribable sadness.
Just then, Ye Jingxuan walked in: ”Get out of the way!”
He frowned for a long while, then put it down and turned to look at Qiu mama. ”Sister Qiu, what did she eat?”
”I only ate two mouthfuls of the candied fruits, there's nothing else …” Ruo Xue spoke up.
”This girl is too hot. This isn't a good sign …” After he muttered to himself, he immediately took out a porcelain bottle from his medicine box and gave it to Qiu mama.
”Immediately feed her three pills!” Take it again every two hours until the sun rises. ”
”Mr. Ye, is it serious?” Qiu mama looked at the porcelain bottle with teary eyes.
Ye Jingxuan looked at Zhuo Qingyan who was lying on the ground and shook her head: ”If the fever can subside before daybreak, then there's hope, otherwise …”
”Don't …” Please... Miss is too bitter … Finally, I am able to get out of the sea of suffering … All of you have to save her … ” Qiu mama began to cry.
