Chapter 332 - I Want to Go Back to the Shou’an Hall (1/2)

When Shi Junhe arrived at Mo Shujun’s residence, she was lying in the sickbed and the maid Zhu fed her medicine.

Mo Shujun’s face was pale and her hair was loose. She looked decadent and depressed, not as dignified and honorable as the Princess Royal in the past.

Before coming, Shi Junhe was mentally prepared and had thought that Mo Shujun might be unable to bear such a body blow, yet when he saw that the woman whom he had called mother for many years became so spiritless, he couldn’t help but have tears in his eyes.

“Mother.” Shi Junhe called her in a shaky voice with the form of address again that he thought that he would never call.

Mo Shujun trembled and finally found Shi Junhe.

There was no blood on her pale face, yet her eyes became extremely sharp all of a sudden. She stared at Shi Junhe. “What are you doing here? Did you come to laugh at me?”

Shi Junhe didn’t mind Mo Shujun’s vicious remarks. “I have heard of the sad news about Juncai and that you are ill, so I brought a doctor here. How are you feeling now?”

Shi Junhe sincerely considered for Mo Shujun’s health, but in her eyes, his action was to sneer at her.

Right!

Mo Shujun’s psychology was screwy. She disliked Shi Junhe and wished that he would live a hard life forever and it was better that he would fall to death as soon as he came out, so she thought that Shi Junhe must also wish that it would happen to her.

As soon as she fell sick, Shi Junhe came here in a rush and said that he brought a doctor. Did he satirize her that she was poor and declining and couldn’t afford to see a good doctor?

Moreover…

As Mo Shujun thought of the news from Beizhou, she felt a heartache.

That was her son, her only child.

He had died, and the person who had murdered him came hypocritically just to laugh at her. How could she bear it?

Mo Shujun clenched her fists in the quilt, while the long fingernails almost hurt her palm and left a hole with blood.

However, it seemed that she couldn’t feel the pain, and her face full of wrinkles twisted, looking ferocious and horrible.

Even Shi Junhe was scared by Mo Shujun’s expression.

“Mo…Mother, are you okay?” Shi Junhe called hesitantly.

His reason told him that Mo Shujun was abnormal, so he should stay away from her, and it was better to go away without looking back.

However, Shi Junhe would never do something like that.

He frowned deeply and walked forward, asking with concern, “Mother, what’s wrong with you? If you don’t feel well, just tell me. After you speak it out, you will feel better.”

Mo Shujun laughed with sarcasm in secret.

“Why would I say it? Will I say it to let you laugh at me?”

Mo Shujun thought evilly. She believed that Shi Junhe purposely came here to disgust and mock at her, so she wouldn’t let him see her misery.

Even though she was weak, she still cheered up and asked coldly, “What on earth are you doing here?”

Shi Junhe replied worriedly, “I am worried about you and want the doctor to check on you.”

After saying that, he waved at the doctor behind him and gestured for him to walk forward and check Mo Shujun’s pulse.

However, Mo Shujun wouldn’t allow such a folk doctor to touch her. She motioned for Zhu to push him away.

She questioned coldly, “What’s my identity? Does such an untrained doctor qualify to touch me? Shi Junhe, do you think that I have no qualification to see an imperial doctor as I have lost power?”

Mo Shujun’s voice was sharp and unpleasant to hear, so Shi Junhe couldn’t help but frown.

However, Shi Junhe considered that she had just lost her son and it was normal for her to be irritable, so he waved at the doctor and gestured for him to go out first. Then he spoke to Mo Shujun. “Mother, since you are unwilling to, I will send for a doctor in the imperial palace for you.”

“No need. An imperial doctor had come. When you think of me, perhaps my dead body is cold.” Mo Shujun intentionally said something offensive.

Even a good-tempered person couldn’t endure Mo Shujun’s bad attitude.

Nevertheless, Mo Shujun would feel happy after saying that.

She purposely irritated Shi Junhe.

Didn’t this man come to her to play a good son? She was going to see if he could stand it after she said that.

Shi Junhe took a deep breath and finally restrained his urge to leave. He expressed in a deep voice, “Mother, since you are all right, I am relieved.”

Seeing that Shi Junhe wasn’t angry, Mo Shujun didn’t feel happy but soon got furious.

She could hardly control herself and shouted at Shi Junhe, “You can bring ill luck. You killed my son, yet you came to see me insincerely. I wish that I can kill you. Get out of here, now!”

Shi Junhe wanted to explain after Mo Shujun yelled at him, while she kept emotionally telling him to get out, without mercy. In the end, she was pissed off and almost fainted.

Seeing that the situation was uncontrollable, Zhu could do nothing but ask Shi Junhe to go out and advise him sadly in a low voice, “Duke Shi, Her Highness is emotional all the time after hearing the sad news about the third master. Please don’t irritate her anymore.”

Shi Junhe was in a daze after Mo Shujun yelled, and now a maid advised him in this way, so his feelings were hurt, yet he just thought that Mo Shujun said something hurtful because she was too sad, and he didn’t take it to heart.

He just responded, “Please take good care of Mother. If you need something, just tell somebody to come to my mansion.”

Zhu agreed and then walked Shi Junhe out of the mansion in person before coming back.
