Chapter 184 - 184:1 Did Everything Willingly
“I’m wondering if it’s better to take off the mask on my face.” Xiao Yan blurted out his thought without warning.
After saying this, Xiao Yan calmly continued to take care of Su Qingqing and left Dong Yan standing there in a daze, unable to come back to his senses.
Dong Yan couldn’t help but turn his head to look at the clear sky. He wondered if it was going to rain red, or if the sun had risen from the west today.
It was well-known that His Highness despised others constantly staring at his face, which was why he had worn a mask for so many years. He had never mentioned the matter of the mask before, but today, he had such thoughts. Wasn’t that strange?
When he thought about how His Highness would take off his mask and reveal his appearance, Dong Yan could easily predict everyone’s reaction. He involuntarily twitched the corners of his lips. He then quickly closed the door and went in to help serve tea.
On the other hand, Su Qian spent a day and night to finally refine the elixir for Su Qingqing.
Su Qian took out the blue-red elixir with golden elixir veins from the medicine cauldron and let out a long sigh.
“Master, you’ve been busy for a day and a night. Why don’t you rest for a while before leaving?” Qian Rong, who had been watching by the side, served tea and expressed concern.
The elixir that Master refined for Young Miss was a fifth-grade elixir, and it was a success on the first attempt. The consumption was naturally self-evident.
Su Qian’s face was pale. The sense of powerlessness after refining the elixir swept over her. She couldn’t help but take a deep breath. After she rubbed her temples wearily, she took the tea that Qian Rong handed over and drank it in one gulp. “No need. Go help me pack the medicine box first. After Qingqing eats the elixir, 1’11 immediately leave with Ji Wanwan.”
After saying that, Su Qian put down her teacup and went to look for Su Qingqing with the elixir.
To Su Qian’s surprise, Xiao Yan was in the room early in the morning, taking care of Su Qingqing with Su Ye.
When Su Ye saw Su Qian approaching, he jumped down from the bed happily and ran up to Su Qian excitedly. He held her hand and said, “Mother, you’re finally here.”
“Why did Your Highness come so early?” Su Qian held her son’s hand and walked over to see that Su Qingqing was sleeping soundly. After feeling relieved, she looked at Xiao Yan and asked in confusion.
“Mother, Ninth Uncle didn’t come this morning. Ninth Uncle has been here taking care of me and Qingqing since yesterday. Qingqing had a fever last night and couldn’t take medicine. Ninth Uncle repeatedly changed the cloth on Qingqing’s forehead,” Su Ye said.
“Did Qingqing have a high fever again last night?” Su Qian quickly touched the unconscious Su Qingqing’s forehead.
However, to Su Qian’s surprise, Su Qingqing’s forehead wasn’t hot. The temperature had probably gone down.
Seeing that the cloth on Su Qingqing’s forehead was still cold, it was not difficult for Su Qian to imagine that Xiao Yan must have tirelessly soaked the towel in cold water all night to bring down Su Qingqing’s body temperature.
“Thank you for your help, Your Highness.” Su Qian turned her head and looked at Xiao Yan gratefully.
“If you’re truly thankful, don’t thank me in the future. I did everything willingly. There’s no need for you to thank me.”Xiao Yan indifferently said,
When Su Ye heard this, he secretly gave Xiao Yan a thumbs up.
“Alright.” Su Qian nodded in agreement and quickly took out the elixir from her pocket.
When Xiao Yan and Su Ye saw this elixir, their hearts tightened. They watched as Su Qian fed the elixir to the unconscious Su Qingqing..
