Xiao Chengzhe raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard that. His phoenix eyes blinked playfully. Coupled with his pale but unusually beautiful face, he looked even more stunning.
"Then does Marinda like it?"
Su Qi glared at him but did not reply.
"I don't think I'm as beautiful as Susu," Xiao Chengzhe continued.”
As he spoke, he would occasionally use his hand to gently trace Su Qi's facial features, carefully tracing them. Su Qi slapped his hand away expressionlessly and ignored his aggrieved expression.
Ever since Xiao Chengzhe had swallowed the poison, Su Qi had been testing the medicine and checking his pulse. She had been studying it non-stop, but Xiao Chengzhe's weapon still did not show any signs of improvement. But later, Xiao Chengzhe started to fall into a light coma. He started to have a fever and vomit, and his body became weaker and weaker.
Two days passed like this, and Su Qi became more and more anxious. She knew that if this continued, even if the poison did not kill him, he would die of weakness because he could not absorb energy.
Su Qi looked at Xiao Chengzhe, who was lying unconscious on the soft couch. She saw his pale face and gently wiped the sweat off his cheeks. Tears fell from her eyes. At that moment, her heart was filled with incomparable fear. She was so afraid. She was so afraid that she couldn't save him.
What should he do? What should he do to save him? Tell me, please tell me…
Su Qi's heart was screaming silently. She buried her head in her arms and sobbed silently.
"Don't cry. I'm fine." A weak voice came from above. Su Qi looked up and saw Xiao Chengzhe opening his eyes. He slowly raised his hand and wiped away the tears at the corner of Su Qi's eyes. Su Qi looked at him and did not speak. She just kept crying.
After a long time, Su Qi finally spoke. "I'm sorry, I'm so useless. I'm useless at all.”
The corners of Xiao Chengzhe's mouth twitched, and a pale smile appeared on his face. He said,""You can do it. Calm down and think carefully. Take your time. Don't…Don't be anxious…"
However, before he could finish speaking, he fell into the endless darkness again.
"Don't sleep! " Don't sleep, I beg you, don't sleep…" Suqi hugged Xiao Chengzhe, who was unconscious, and cried fiercely. The tears that had already subsided gushed out again. She was so scared. She was really scared. She was afraid that he would never wake up again after he fainted this time.
However, she was the only one left at the moment.
After a while, Su Qi slowly stood up and wiped her tears. She said,"" Calm down, calm down. Think carefully. There must be something I missed. There must be something, there must be something…"
Suddenly, an idea flashed in Su Qi's mind. She seemed to have thought of something. She quickly ran to the operating table and carefully observed the water that had been mixed with the powder on the first night. Sometimes, she was facing the light, and sometimes, she was facing the light, as if she was trying to find something in the water.
Eh, what is this?
Su Qi seemed to have seen something white in the water, but she couldn't see it clearly. Therefore, she picked up her handkerchief. It was made of silk and was very dense. She placed the handkerchief in another bowl without water and poured the water in the bowl. Then, she carefully grabbed the four corners of the handkerchief and lifted it. After the water was automatically filtered, he placed the handkerchief flat on the operating table.
This time, she finally saw it clearly.
She saw that there were many worms on the handkerchief. They were very thin and small. After leaving the water, they gradually turned red.
After finding the crux of the problem, Su Qi finally revealed a smile. It was it, it really was it. This was a type of cotton worm. The larvae usually lived in water, and because they became transparent in water, they were difficult to find. After entering the human body, they would survive in the human body and absorb nutrients, causing fever, vomiting, and other symptoms.
"Lu Rao! Lu Rao!" Su Qi immediately ran out and asked Zi Gan and Lu Rao to buy realgar powder.
There was no need to drink any medicine to deal with this kind of insect. As long as he applied about 9% realgar water on his body five times a day, he would recover in two days.
Su Qi moved Xiao Chengzhe to her room and asked Mo Li to help him apply realgar water. After everything was done, she quietly waited by the bed and waited for him to wake up.
After some time, the person on the bed finally reacted. Xiao Chengzhe slowly opened his eyes. Before he could see his surroundings clearly, he realized that his hand seemed to be pressed down by something and felt a little numb. He turned his head slightly and saw Su Qi holding his hand tightly. She was sleeping by the bed. Her eyes were dark and even in her sleep, her brows were tightly knitted as if she had thousands of thoughts in her mind.
Xiao Chengzhe looked at her quietly. His heart ached for her, but it was warm.
He revealed an extremely gentle smile and tiptoed up. He carefully carried Su Qi onto the bed and gently held her in his arms. At this moment, the person in his arms seemed to have sensed something. She snuggled into his arms and continued to sleep. Xiao Chengzhe looked at her subconscious actions and felt extremely sweet.
Just like that, he hugged her and closed his eyes with a smile. At this moment, the person in his arms gradually relaxed her brows and seemed more at ease.
The long night faded, and the sky turned white.
Su Qi slowly opened her eyes, and a magnified version of her perfect side profile appeared in front of her. That pair of soul-stirring eyes were tightly shut at this moment. They were not as enchanting as usual, but they were more real. His sexy thin lips curled into a small arc, but it was unusually sweet, as if he had dreamed of something happy.
Suddenly, she felt a force holding her hand tightly. At this moment, Su Qi realized that her hand had unknowingly climbed onto this beautiful face. A gentle touch woke Xiao Chengzhe from his dream. He opened his eyes and looked at the person in front of him with a faint smile. He saw two patches of red on her cheeks.
"Let go." Su Qing struggled to pull her hand away. This kind of interaction was too ambiguous and made her feel uncomfortable.
On the other hand, Xiao Chengzhe was enjoying himself. He moved Su Qi's hand to his lips and nibbled on it gently.""How is it? Do I look to your liking?”
However, as soon as he finished speaking, he saw Suqi's pale face. Xiao Chengzhe caressed her face and said softly,""Are you not feeling well? Are you too tired? Do you want to rest for a while?”
Su Qi shook her head and a smile appeared on her face. However, her voice was a little hoarse as she said,""I'm fine. You must be hungry after sleeping for so long. I'll get someone to get you something to eat.”After saying that, she hurriedly got up and fled from his side.
Seeing her like this, Xiao Chengzhe suddenly felt uneasy. He did not know where this uneasiness came from. He wanted to get up and chase after her, but he realized that his body was still very weak. He was afraid that he could barely stand up. It was impossible to chase after her.
On the other side, after Suqing fled the room, her hands clutched her chest tightly.
For some reason, every time she got close to him, her heart would ache again and again. Are you jealous? Ye Suqi, is that you? Are you feeling uneasy because I'm too close to him? But I am you, am I not? What are you in pain for? Or are you afraid of something? Isn't this what you want?
Tears kept flowing down her cheeks. All of this seemed to be telling her that she could not get too close to him.
"Miss, what's wrong?" Lü Rao was about to go over to see if Premier Xiao had woken up, but before she reached the door, she saw her Miss squatting in the courtyard and crying. Lü Rao couldn't help but tremble.
When Su Qi saw someone walking over, she quickly wiped away her tears and shook her head with a smile.""I'm fine, go get some food for Prime Minister Xiao.”
Lu Rao didn't leave. Instead, she pulled Su Qing to sit on the stone bench. "Miss, don't worry. The cyanosis is already being prepared. It will be brought over in a while.”
Su Qi looked at Lu Rao's hesitant expression and sighed."Just say what you want to say."
"Young miss, this servant knows that this kind of words should not be said, but young miss, you are already the chosen young master. Soon, you will enter the palace and accept the title. If others knew that you treated Prime Minister Xiao like this, I'm afraid something bad would happen.”
As she spoke, Lu Rao suddenly knelt down, scaring Su Qi so much that she quickly helped her up. "What are you doing?"
"Miss, do you know that not only will you lose your life, but Prime Minister Xiao will also be despised by the emperor and even the general will be implicated?”Lu Rao didn't stand up. Instead, she continued to kneel." Miss, that's the Emperor, the ruler of the Xili Dynasty. Usually, there aren't many people who oppose him. If the Emperor finds out that you and Prime Minister Xiao…"
"Get up, I know."
At this moment, Su Qi suddenly felt that she was very silly. That's right, this was a feudal society with a monarch. It was an era where the monarch wanted the subjects to die. Even if she had not really married him, she was still his woman in name. If he knew... God, she did not even dare to think about it anymore.
Suqi sat on the stone bench in a daze. Her mind was in a mess. She didn't even know when Lu Rao had left. The only thing she knew was that she had fallen in love with that evil-like man. It wasn't because of Ye Suqi, but because she had fallen for him. However, reality also told him that this first time, he could not continue. This was not a place where he could obtain happiness by relying on his own efforts. Never.
When she thought of this, Su Qi buried her head in her arms helplessly.
Xiao Chengzhe realized that he had become unwelcome. Ever since he woke up, Suqi had not come to visit him. She had not eaten for the past few days, and her body was very weak. She only got better on the third day. Every time she came to deliver food, she would be cyanotic. However, she did not even look at him before she put down her things and left. He did not even have the chance to ask for news from Su Qi.
He felt more and more uneasy. He wanted to go out and take a look, but he met Lu Rao. She actually said that if his body hadn't recovered yet, he should go in and lie down. If he recovered, he should leave to avoid any gossip.
At this time, Xiao Chengzhe already knew everything. He wanted to find Suqi to explain, but he did not have the chance to see her at all. He had something to say but could not express it. Therefore, Xiao Chengzhe had no choice but to stay temporarily. He planned to visit Suqi at night and listen to his explanation.
