Meng Youning, Qi Shangqing and Jiang Zhuo, who were sitting opposite Qi Ran, were all staring at him intently.
The three of them continued eating, with a look of slight surprise on their faces.
The moment Qi Ran's gaze swept over them, the three of them simultaneously pulled their chairs and took a step back.
Qi Ran, who had just extended his hand, stared ahead in amazement, "You...you guys..."
Jiang Zhuo coughed lightly, "Ran'er, Youning's health isn't good to begin with. If she gets close to you, she'll easily get infected. Your father and I aren't very strong either, so just bear with it for now."
Qi Ran leaned back with a look of despair on his face, "You are truly my biological parents!"
Jiang Zhuo patted his chest and said, "Of course."
Qi Shangqing, who was standing by, suddenly spoke up, "How come you've become like this in just one night? The weather hasn't been this bad lately, has it?"
Meng Youning lowered her head silently, recalling the scene this morning when she woke up and as soon as she got off the bed, a pair of feet stepped directly on someone.
She fed the food into her mouth very obediently.
So Qi Ran just lay on the ground all night?
"Youning." Qi Shangqing suddenly mentioned Meng Youning and looked up at her.
Meng Youning paused her movements and raised her eyelids slightly.
Her eyes flashed, and she slowly put the bamboo chopsticks aside, "Actually..."
Before she could finish her words, Qi Ran sneezed violently. "Why are you asking her? I just accidentally fell down while sleeping."
Meng Youning tightened her grip on the bowl, and an inexplicable feeling spread wildly in her heart, like a nameless fire rushing into her body, wantonly destroying everything in her body.
Afterwards, Qi Shangqing and the others did not ask Qi Ran how he caught a cold.
"Okay, since you're feeling so uncomfortable, just go back and lie down. This isn't a solution right now."
After Qi Shangqing finished the last mouthful of porridge in the bowl, he slowly stood up and spoke softly.
Qi Ran said "oh".
In a corner where Qi Shangqing and Jiang Zhuo couldn't see, Qi Ran raised his eyebrows at Meng Youning.
Meng Youning looked as if she saw nothing, lowered her head and ate the food in front of her.
After a while, when everyone else had left, only Meng Youning and Qi Ran were left in the main garden.
"Thank you so much for that." Meng Youning reached out and gently wiped the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief, her voice very calm.
Qi Ran suddenly grinned and said, "It has nothing to do with you. I'm just telling the truth."
Meng Youning didn't say anything more, and slowly stood up, holding up the hem of her clothes.
Seeing this, Qi Ran hurriedly followed.
After a cup of tea.
Inside the Yunyan Pavilion.
Qi Ran finally got on the bed as he wished, but before he could be happy, two servants stood beside Qi Ran, one on the left and one on the right, holding a bowl of black medicine in their hands.
He pointed at the two people beside him and looked eagerly at Meng Youning in front of him, "What is this?"
Meng Youning tilted her head back slightly and sipped the water. "These are all medicines prepared by the court physician himself. They are very potent. I guarantee that after drinking them and sleeping for a few more hours, all your symptoms will be cured."
Qi Ran tilted his head and listened in shock.
He didn't hear the other person's words clearly.
Only the words "drink medicine" fell into his ears.
Qi Ran curled his lips, and his whole body was full of resistance.
He pinched the corner of the quilt, took a step back silently, and turned his head to the side.
Meng Youning couldn't help but smile.
Only Qi Ran could drink medicine and act as if he would rather die than obey.
Qi Ran snorted coldly, "Anyway, no matter who it is, if they want me to drink the medicine, that's impossible. I'd rather lie on the bed like this for another three to five days."
As he spoke, he sneezed violently again.
Qi Ran's eyes were already tired, and now, tears were flashing in them.
Meng Youning waved her hand, and the maids beside her retreated on their own accord.
Canghei and Muxiang quietly moved away.
Meng Youning lowered her eyes, reached out and slowly picked up a bowl of medicine, threw her sleeves aside, and then sat down steadily beside the couch.
She gently scooped up a small spoonful of medicine and immediately handed it to Qi Ran's mouth.
Qi Ran glared and was about to lose his temper, but when he turned around, he met Meng Youning's pretty face.
Qi Ran opened his mouth slightly, but before he could react, the first spoonful of medicine entered his mouth without warning.
Qi Ran took a sip, his facial features twisted in bitterness.
He bent over, wanting to vomit.
Meng Youning said softly, "After you finish this bowl, I'll also prepare some preserves that I made myself for you."
Qi Ran paused, opened his mouth silently, and stared at Meng Youning as she drank willingly.
Cang Hei, who was not far away, turned his body slightly and saw that his master looked as if he didn't want the money.
He clicked his tongue twice and covered his eyes with one hand, unable to bear to watch.
A few months ago, he threatened the Crown Prince's wife, asking her to stay away from him, and he always had a cold face.
Now he was begging the Crown Princess to look at him more.
Cang Hei shook his head. A man’s heart is as unpredictable as a needle in the sea.
Their prince is the king of needles among the needles in the sea, the thinnest, smallest and deepest one.
Under Meng Youning's half-coaxing, Qi Ran drank two large bowls of medicine without realizing it.
Qi Ran was a little disappointed, "Is that all you have to drink?"
Meng Youning hummed softly and said with a sweet smile, "Yes, the prince is really amazing."
Then, she slowly stood up, and with a glance, Cang Hei stepped forward and took a plate of candied fruit and brought it to Qi Ran.
