That woman went to the Han Estate!
Long Fei Ye's heart had finally calmed down, but now it flared up again!
He told her to go back to the estate, but she went to the Han Estate instead. What did she mean by that? Was she not planning to go back to the Duke of Qin's estate? Did she want to leave him?
Long Fei Ye was so angry that his cold face seemed to be covered in a layer of frost. He emanated a frightening aura of danger and almost crushed the medical pouch in his hands.
But he didn't say a word.
Outside the carriage, Chu Xifeng was trembling with fear. He didn't know if His Highness had heard Xu Donglin's words, but he still had to report it!
After all, His Highness had left the task of escorting esteemed wangfei back to the estate to him.
Chu Xifeng glared at Xu Donglin a few times before gathering his courage to speak. But Long Fei Ye suddenly said coldly, "Why aren't you going in yet?"
Frightened, Chu Xifeng quickly drove the carriage through a side door. As for whether His Highness was going to find someone, he didn't dare to ask. But somehow, he felt like His Highness would tell him something.
Unexpectedly, Long Fei Ye went straight back to his quarters and shut the doors. He didn't say a thing.
Zhao mama, Baili Mingxiang, and Su Xiaoyu blocked Chu Xifeng's way, but all three of them were concerned about different things.
"Where's esteemed wangfei? Didn't they say she was saved? "Zhao mama asked anxiously.
Su Xiaoyu was curious. "Guard Chu, did they save that Pill Fiend too?"
Baili Mingxiang, on the other hand, was completely focused on His Highness Duke of Qin. She discovered that his complexion didn't seem very well and was rather pale.
Chu Xifeng didn't answer a single question, but jumped out from between the three women and went straight to the Han Estate. Although there were guards there to protect him, it was better for him to go personally.
The assassins wouldn't dare to make a move now, but what if?
Actually, Chu Xifeng wanted to tell esteemed wangfei that His Highness Duke of Qin had suffered serious internal injuries. Unfortunately, he didn't dare to speak too much about His Highness's affairs.
At this moment, Han Yunxi was in the Leisure Cloud Park of the Han Family.
After Madam Helian became the head of the household, she renovated the Han residence and rented out all the empty courtyards, leaving only three courtyards, one of which was reserved for Han Yunxi. Because Han Yunxi's courtyard in the Duke of Qin's Mansion was called Leisurely Cloud Pavilion, she reversed the two characters' Leisurely Cloud 'and named it' Leisurely Cloud '.
Madam Helian and Little Yi 'er were standing guard at the door. Even now, they were still confused and had no idea what had happened.
The Princess Consort had been saved, so why was she here?
Madam Helian had already tried to persuade him several times. Helpless, she could only keep winking at Little Yi 'er, asking him to persuade him.
"Sis, open the door!"
"Big Sister, did His Highness Duke of Qin bully you?"
"Sis, please open the door. Yi 'er is begging you."
…
Finally, Han Yunxi spoke up. "Seventh Madame, all of you should go and rest. I'm tired and want to sleep."
Madam Helian had no choice but to leave with Little Yi 'er.
After calming down, Han Yunxi finally exhaled. Unfortunately, her heart was still stifled. She hugged her knees and sat on the couch. Her head was heavy and in a mess.
From the assassination attempt at the Gu Estate to Gu Qishao saving her, to the betrayal of the imperial guards, to Gu Qishao taking her away, to Gu Qishao revealing his true face, to Gu Qishao's serious injuries, to Gu Qishao's urgent treatment, and then Long Feiye's appearance. Everything had happened so quickly that she still hadn't recovered her senses! She only felt like she was in a dream. In her dream, Long Fei Ye had returned, but it wasn't a beautiful dream.
She knew that Long Fei Ye would be angry if she shared a bed with Gu with her disheveled clothes. Anyone would be angry.
But why didn't he listen to her explanation? He clearly knew that she had been attacked, didn't he? He clearly saw that she and Gu were both injured, didn't he?
She had applied medicine for Gu with her disheveled clothes. She really deserved to die! But she was really anxious at that time and forgot. It wasn't intentional.
As a doctor, she was anxious in the face of such a terrible injury. Besides, Gu was injured because of her!
Why didn't Long Fei Ye think about it? If it wasn't for Gu, would he have come back to collect the corpse?
Right and wrong, scene after scene flashed through Han Yunxi's mind. However, the one that repeated the most was Long Fei Ye's disdainful sneer.
Long Fei Ye, because I like you, I'm so proud that I can lower myself to the ground. But you can't look down on me like this!
What kind of woman do you take me for? What kind of woman do you take me for?
The more Han Yunxi thought, the more her head hurt. Gradually, she closed her eyes and fell to the side.
She was so preoccupied with Gu's injuries and Long Fei Ye's anger that she forgot about the wound on her shoulder. Even now, she hadn't pulled out the arrow from her shoulder. The wound wasn't bleeding, but it was already inflamed.
Her head hurt not only because she was vexed, but because she had a high fever.
"Yiya!"
The window was carefully pushed open as a furry little head poked out. It was none other than Lil Thing.
When it saw that Mama Yunxi was asleep, it crept closer. But it quickly realized that something was wrong and was about to call for help when the white-robed man entered.
"Chee chee!" Lil Thing cried out anxiously.
"Shhh …"
The white-robed man gently motioned for it to quiet down. Lil Thing really did quiet down and obediently jumped onto the windowsill to stand guard. Actually, it and the gentleman had found Mama Yunxi before His Highness Duke of Qin, but the gentleman hadn't shown himself.
The white-robed man carefully straightened the curled up figure on the bed and sat by her side. He gently touched her forehead and took her pulse.
After giving her a small pill to make sure she wouldn't wake up, he began to inspect the wound on her shoulder.
She'd worn three layers of clothing to hide the wound, but the arrow had sunk deep into her flesh. Only a small part of the arrowhead could be seen, hidden by her clothes.
It was difficult to inspect without taking off her clothes, but he was a true gentleman. He didn't touch her, but covered her with the covers.
He'd not only given her a fever medicine, but a sleeping pill as well. She'd have to sleep for at least a day before she woke up. No amount of pain would wake her up. Still, he was afraid that she'd be in pain, so his movements couldn't be any gentler.
He carefully lifted up the hole in her clothes and examined it. It seemed impossible to see clearly, so he knelt on one knee by the bed and found a suitable angle to inspect it.
He repeatedly adjusted the angle and checked over and over again until Lil Thing yawned by the window. His eyes remained focused and serious.
Finally, he found the most suitable position. First, he used a magnet to pull out some of the bolts. Then, he quickly used his fingers and middle fingers to clamp the bolts. With a sudden pull, the three-inch bolt was pulled out of the ground.
Strangely, Han Yunxi's wound didn't spurt any blood, but only a little. After all, the arrow had been shot so deeply and for so long. Pulling it out would definitely cause a lot of blood.
He cleaned up the bloodstains and sprinkled some medicine to stop the bleeding. This time, his movements were no longer slow. He quickly wrapped up the wound so it wouldn't bleed.
After that, he sighed softly and touched her forehead again. Although he was reluctant to do so, he quickly let go of her hand.
Her fever had already begun to recede, which was good.
Only then did he rise to his feet, his legs numb from kneeling. He smiled helplessly, a gentle smile hidden beneath the white gauze covering his face. All that could be seen was his clear, handsome features filled with tenderness.
He poured out a cup of water and placed it by the bed. After some hesitation, he took off his white gauze and wrapped up the arrow before placing it by the bed as well.
If Han Yunxi woke up now, she'd definitely see his doting, helpless smile. It was the most gentle face in the world. Unfortunately, Han Yunxi was still asleep.
"Silly girl … the wound is so deep, you mustn't move around."
He looked at her for a long time, long enough for Lil Thing to assume that he'd stay. But in the end, he turned to leave.
Lil Thing finally realized that he wasn't wearing a mask, but it wasn't shocked. It had long known who he was. His scent was the cleanest in the world, and the faint scent of medicinal herbs was the best in the world.
After leaving the room, he suddenly vanished into thin air. Lil Thing panicked and quickly leapt onto the roof. Fortunately, he was standing right there.
Naturally, Lil Thing had to stay behind to protect Mama Yunxi, but it had something to tell the gentleman!
It quickly scurried onto his shoulder and dug out a clot of congealed blood. "Cheep cheep … cheep cheep!"
This was Gu's blood. It had long sensed that something was off about Gu, but never expected his blood to be so … delicious!
It didn't know what was wrong with the blood, nor could it tell that it was poisonous, but it made its mouth water as soon as it smelled it. It really was delicious!
Seeing this, the white-robed man smiled and took out a clot of blood as well. "You noticed it too?"
Lil Thing was stunned. "Cheep cheep, cheep cheep!"
"A Poison Gu human with an undying body. That child from the medical academy … it really was him! "
The white-robed man's expression grew heavy. It was precisely because he'd discovered Gu's undying body that he hadn't made a move.
If an undying Poison Gu human couldn't protect her, who else in the world could?
But was it a blessing or a curse to be friends with this ruthless Poison Gu human who didn't care about the world?
Sensing the approaching guards, the white-robed man set Lil Thing down and quickly vanished from sight. Lil Thing cradled the clot of blood and wanted to hide it for Mama Yunxi to see, but when it remembered that Mama Yunxi's skills were limited and she wouldn't be able to tell, it simply swallowed it whole! Mm, so delicious!
Chu Xifeng and a few of his guards patrolled the area before vanishing back into the shadows.
That very night, while the guards were still patrolling the area, Gu Qishao openly showed up with Lady Helian. He was still dressed in his usual flirtatious red robes that hid the numerous wounds on his back. Aside from his slightly pale face, he looked just like a normal person.
Lady Helian had no idea what the truth was, but she'd heard rumors outside that Gu had saved esteemed wangfei. Thus, she treated Gu with extra courtesy.
"Sir Gu, esteemed wangfei's been shut up in her rooms ever since she arrived. She refuses to see anyone," Lady Helian said anxiously.
Gu was alarmed. "Didn't anyone treat your wounds?"
Lady Helian was startled as well. "Wounds?"
Han Yunxi had been shot very deeply. Moreover, she'd taken off her clothes and put them back on after being shot, so the arrow was hidden beneath her clothes. It was impossible to tell unless one looked closely.
Gu immediately realized what was going on and prepared to kick the door open, but Chu Xifeng suddenly appeared to block him. "Gu, don't be so impudent!"
