Chapter 196: Li Suining Must Not Be Considered a Member of the Bai Family
Bai Yu'an rushed back to the camp as fast as he could. After all, Li Suining was sick, and if it was daybreak, the drug test would probably not be able to proceed.
He got off his horse and immediately opened the tent door carefully. He thought Li Suining should be asleep by now, but he didn't expect that the guy was actually sitting there, as if... waiting for him to come back?
"Why aren't you sleeping?" He walked in quickly and went straight to the desk.
"Second brother, I'm not sleepy." Little Tuanzi still looked a little weak, but he also forced himself to catch up with Bai Yu'an, "Second brother, are fourth brother and sixth brother back?"
"Not yet. They're behind us, so they should be here soon." Bai Yu'an looked down at Tuanzi, whose face was flushed red. Li Suining's eyelids were clearly drooping. "Go to sleep. I'll wake you up after I've studied the prescription."
"No, I'm not sleepy." Little Dumpling forced himself to answer, and it seemed that his eyes were beginning to wander.
Bai Yu'an frowned and looked at Qingyun not far away, but found that Qingyun's expression was a little strange.
He didn't have time to think about anything else at this moment, and ordered in a cold voice, "Let Li Suining sleep first. I will wake you up after I prepare the prescription."
"Oh, okay." Qingyun lowered his head and took a few steps forward, picking up the little girl. "Xiao Suining, be good. Close your eyes for a while. We'll open them when the prescription is ready."
After saying that, he said to Bai Yu'an unnaturally, "Second Young Master, you have worked hard."
Bai Yu'an felt more and more that something was wrong, but he didn't say much and quickly studied the prescription.
Qingyun held the little girl and sat next to her.
"Okay, then I'll close my eyes for a while," the little girl said, her rosy face pressed against Qingyun's shoulder, her voice growing weaker and weaker, "But I won't sleep, because I... am... not... sleepy... at all..."
Apparently, he fell asleep before he could finish his words.
Bai Yu'an took a look and said, "Qingyun, you should get some sleep too. I'll come and wake you up."
"No, I'm fine." Qingyun held the little ball motionlessly, looking very energetic, and occasionally stole a glance at Bai Yu'an.
Bai Yu'an ignored it and quickly devoted himself to his own affairs. He had to research a few more prescriptions before the stars disappeared.
Time passed little by little, and finally, after Bai Yu'an finished writing the last prescription, he woke up the little girl.
"Second brother," the little fellow had been sick for a day and looked listless, but he still managed to sit up and asked softly, "What time is it now?"
"It's almost Yin hour. You have to go outside, otherwise the stars will disappear soon." Bai Yu'an took out a warm towel and wiped Tuanzi's face to make her more awake.
Little Dumpling felt a little better and soon regained consciousness. He asked in a baby voice, "Second brother, where's the prescription? You can tell me now."
Bai Yu'an frowned. The prescription was very complicated. He felt that even if there was only one, Xiaotuanzi might not be able to remember it.
He thought for a moment before tentatively saying, "Li Suining, I've numbered these prescriptions. If you only know the numbers, then the stars should be able to tell you the results, right?"
The little dumpling tilted his head, and after a while he said happily, "Second brother, you are so smart. It should be possible. I will try."
She stood on tiptoe, trying to hold Bai Yu'an's hand, but it was obviously out of reach.
"Let's go and try it." Bai Yu'an noticed it and bent his body slightly to the side, allowing the ball to succeed.
The first thing he did was to confirm that Qingyun was still sleeping, and then he took the little girl and hurried out.
When they got outside, Xiaotuanzi led the way to the place where they went last time. Thinking of the last time her palm was bitten, she suddenly felt a little scared.
"Second brother," she said, looking around timidly, "Is that bee from last time going to bite me again?"
Bai Yu'an then realized that this was where the little girl was bitten last time, and he had scolded her afterwards.
He couldn't help but blame himself. "No, don't worry. I'm here. No bugs will come over."
He fiddled with herbs all year round, and his whole body was soaked in medicinal herbs, so most of the poisonous insects in the Fairy Forest did not dare to approach him.
"Thank you, second brother." Little Dumpling finally felt relieved. He looked up at the stars and began to ask the questions he wanted to ask.
Bai Yu'an stood behind her, looking at her for a while, then looking at the stars in the sky. It was really hard for him to imagine, could this little girl really get the answer?
To him, the stars seemed quieter than the deep night before dawn.
But soon, the little girl looked at him happily, "Second brother, Xingxing said that prescription number five is effective. If everyone drinks this medicine, they will get better soon."
"Really?" Bai Yu'an was overjoyed.
The little dumpling nodded vigorously, "Really, Xingxing won't lie to me, and I won't lie to my second brother either."
"Okay!" Bai Yu'an was so anxious that he picked up Li Suining. Just as he was about to say something, he was stunned. This child... why is his little body so hot?
At this moment, when he looked at the little girl's smiling, rosy face, he felt even more uncomfortable.
"Second brother, what's wrong?" Li Suining was particularly happy at this time, because it was the first time that her second brother hugged her, and he took the initiative to hug her.
Although she didn't like taking medicine or the smell of medicine, she found the smell of medicine on her second brother particularly pleasant.
"I'll take you home first, and then go to boil the medicine right away." Bai Yu'an collected his thoughts and strode towards his tent holding the little dumpling.
Li Suining felt distressed and said, "Second brother, if this happens, you won't be able to sleep all night."
"It's okay, I'm not sleepy." Bai Yu'an quickened his pace. He wanted to make a batch of medicine for Li Suining to take first.
"Brother, I'm not sleepy either. Can I come with you?" Little Tuanzi said excitedly, "I want to accompany you, brother."
"No, you are sick and need to rest." Bai Yu'an's voice became more serious.
The little girl was obviously disappointed. She lowered her head and said weakly, "Okay, but I feel like I won't be able to sleep even if I go back. I'll always be thinking about my second brother."
"..." Bai Yu'an paused when he heard that, then quickly changed direction, "Okay, then you accompany me to boil the first dose of medicine. After that, you drink the medicine and go to sleep. This time, there's no room for negotiation."
"Okay!" Little Dumpling agreed happily, and then carefully hugged Bai Yu'an's neck and rubbed it gently.
Although Bai Yu'an was a little uncomfortable, he did not speak to stop it.
He didn't want to admit that this child was sweet and soft, and warm at this moment. Holding him... was actually very comfortable.
Realizing that he had inadvertently had such thoughts, Bai Yu'an's face changed in shock, and he kept reminding himself in his heart, "No, I can't treat Li Suining as a member of the Bai family, absolutely not!"
