Chapter 257 The Maid Imprisoned in the Temple (08)



The room was eerily quiet, with only Shen Jingze's coughing ringing out from time to time.

Ning Wan raised her eyes, frowned slightly, and looked at Shen Jingze beside the bed.

To be honest, she was really afraid that this person would cough to death in this room.

Chu You didn't say anything when watching this scene, but Chu Si was different.

First, he glared at Shen Jingze, who was trying to win the sympathy of his junior sister, then looked at the junior sister who was afraid that he would cough up something bad, and said unhappily: “You are useless.”

He was just a man with a sad face. Even if he died, she might not be so sad.

Chu Si felt sad.

"Fourth Brother..."

Ning Wan was caught off guard by Chu Si's words, and naturally subconsciously wanted to refute it.

But Chu Si did not give Ning Wan this opportunity. Instead, he pulled Shen Jingze, who was standing aside and staring at his junior sister, onto the bed.

"Junior sister, there's no need to say more. Fourth brother will find a way to keep him alive for two more months."

Chu You didn't react until he saw his beloved disciple take out the silver needle.

After knowing Chu Si's purpose, Chu You looked at the silver needle with a complicated expression as it pierced Shen Jingze's body.

Very good. The people who could have been asked to leave were now kept by these two siblings.

Chu You shook his robe, turned around and left without saying a word.

As he stepped over the threshold, Chu You seemed to remember something and turned back to look at Ning Wan standing at the door:

"Did you go to burn incense today?"

Ning Wan answered honestly, "Yes, Master."

Chu You nodded, and then looked at Chu Si who was wholeheartedly trying to extend Shen Jingze's life: "If there is really no other way, then let him go down the mountain, don't let him lose his life in vain."

The room fell silent again.

The silver needle in Chu Si's hand could not go any further.

Indeed, the master’s words made Chu Si’s heart tremble.

The saying "There are mountains beyond mountains and people beyond people" echoes in my ears again.

If this person loses the chance to live because of him, it would be a sin.

"It's okay, the miracle doctor will just treat him. I have no chance to meet this outsider."

Shen Jingze, who had been pierced with needles several times on his arms and chest, naturally knew that the concerns of this miracle doctor were very convincing when he lied.

"To be honest, I've had this illness for some time now, and I've seen dozens, if not hundreds, of doctors."

"All the medicines I've tried are ineffective, but the miracle doctor is the only one who can say that he can give me another month of life."

Shen Jingze tilted his head slightly, with an attitude that showed he had already put life and death aside.

If Ning Wan hadn't had Xiao Qi with her, she would have really believed the little story made up by Shen Jingze.

It's obviously overdoing it, how come you're so good at making it up?

After hearing this, Chu Si responded softly: "Don't worry, I will do my best."

He is not a fool.

It is impossible to tell the new wounds from the old ones. I guess this young man was afraid of feeling guilty, so he made up this story to comfort him.

For a moment, Chu Si felt a little more favorable towards his junior sister, his beloved who was about to die.

But Ning Wan at the door didn't want to stand there any longer, looking at the two people who were getting along so harmoniously.

"Fourth brother, I'll leave this place to you. I'll be leaving first."

Ning Wan said this without giving Chu Si a chance, and ran to her room.

Chu Si looked at his junior sister who ran faster than a rabbit and chuckled.

Such a good opportunity, but I don’t know how to seize it.

Shen Jingze did not hold on.

After Chu Si inserted the twenty-third needle, his eyelids finally closed.

Chu Si's hands did not stop moving because of this.

After another stick of incense, a thin layer of sweat had appeared on Chu Si's forehead.

It is definitely impossible to just use acupuncture, and it also needs to be combined with some medicine.

Thinking of this, Chu Si turned his head and looked at the door again.

She ran fast, but she left him without even a laborer to serve him.

Chu Si thought about it, but the corners of his mouth rose, and he walked straight to the pharmacy.

And just a cup of tea after Chu Si left, Shen Jingze opened his eyes.

He started coughing softly again.

He frowned and said to himself: This body is really troublesome.

The other side.

Ning Wan was sitting at the coffee table in the courtyard, holding a storybook in her hand, reading leisurely, not at all worried about the people in the guest room.

[Host, Chu Si is here.]

As Ning Wan closed the storybook, she felt a pain on the top of her head, and then her hands felt empty.

Ning Wan subconsciously looked up and saw Chu Si, a familiar face.

"Why did Fourth Brother come to my place?"

Upon hearing this, Chu Si walked over to a chair nearby and sat down, then casually placed the dozen or so medicine bags in his hand on the stone table.

"Junior sister, have you forgotten that the person lying in the guest room is your sweetheart, not mine."

"Don't say I didn't give you a chance, brother."

"You can't let me, your senior brother, take care of your sweetheart without taking off my clothes, right?"

Chu Si kept calling her "sweetheart" left and right, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone.

Ning Wan looked at the medicine on the table, then glanced at Chu Si who was winking at her, and said helplessly:

"Fourth brother, I've already told you that he's not my sweetheart. I just saw him on the way to find you, so I saved him."

"Genders are different. I'm sorry to trouble you, Fourth Brother, to take care of this person."

Ning Wan said this, picked up the script on the table that Chu Si had taken away, turned around and walked straight into the room.
