Chapter 31 The Song family never even considered looking for her!
"Young lady?"
"Si Niannian!"
Jie Ge'an shook Si Niannian, who seemed to have fainted, his face so dark it was almost dripping with water: "She's not injured, so what exactly happened?!"
From the moment Si Niannian noticed the abnormality a quarter of an hour ago, her whole body felt like a burning hot coal.
But after taking his pulse, Jingzhe said it wasn't poisoning!
Jingzhe said with some doubt, "I can't quite explain it either, but the young lady's condition does seem to be a high fever caused by a fright."
Shocked?
Jie Ge'an's expression was strange: "Are you really scared?"
If he's so easily frightened, then was his suspicion of Si Niannian wrong?
How could someone who can shatter a person's heart meridian with a single palm strike possibly be so frightened that they develop a high fever?
Jingzhe was really unsure, so she spoke vaguely: "You protected the young lady very well, and she has no external injuries. This is the only explanation that makes sense."
“The young lady’s breathing is alarmingly erratic, and it doesn’t seem like a cold-related illness. I dare not administer acupuncture or medicine rashly.”
Jie Ge'an took several deep breaths, glanced back at the blood-stained mess on the ground, and said with a frown, "Let's go back first."
"Should we send the young lady back to the Song family?" Jingzhe asked. "Then why don't we send someone to the Song family to let them know first?"
The Song family?
Jie Ge'an gave a mocking scoff and said quietly, "No rush."
"Let's rest at my villa outside the city first, and then go to the city to fetch a carriage."
Si Niannian disappeared at the soup kitchen, and the Song family has not made any move to search for her to this day.
He wanted to see when the Song family would remember they had lost Si Niannian!
Jie Ge'an tore off his dark cloak and wrapped Si Niannian up in it, turning her into a red and white ball whose head and face were completely obscured.
His people don't talk nonsense.
So even if Si Niannian and he rode the same horse, there would be absolutely no gossip.
Upon arriving at the villa, Jie Ge'an first settled Si Niannian in the guest courtyard, then immediately went to deal with matters outside.
Si Niannian was repeatedly tossed and turned in indescribable pain, her consciousness feeling as if it were being cut back and forth by countless sharp blades, the pain making it impossible for her to wake up.
When Si Niannian slowly woke up, it was already evening outside the window, and three hours had passed since the bandits attacked.
Si Niannian was in excruciating pain all over her body, and her clothes were soaked through with cold sweat.
When Si Niannian finally mustered the strength to raise her hand, she saw that the red mark on her wrist had actually disappeared!
Si Niannian breathed softly in disbelief, rolled up her sleeve and looked closely, only to find that almost half of the red spots on her right arm had disappeared!
Si Niannian got up, found a basin of water, and vaguely reached out to touch her face.
The red spots on my forehead have also disappeared!
Si Niannian collapsed to the ground, seemingly exhausted, and managed a weak laugh while clutching her still throbbing chest.
Severing ties with relatives is the right approach.
As the original owner's lingering resentment gradually fades away amidst the increasingly excessive abandonment and harm inflicted by their parents and siblings.
because……
Si Niannian recalled how decisively Madam Song and Song Wen abandoned her, and gave a self-deprecating bitter smile: "Nobody cares about you at all, understand?"
Why keep tormenting her?
The room was completely silent; Si Niannian could only hear her own breathing.
However, she quickly perked up and looked around.
Xie Ge'an thought she had fainted, but that wasn't the case. Si Niannian was always aware of what was happening outside.
As soon as possible, Jie Ge'an has been openly and secretly suspecting and investigating her.
Even Si Niannian had to admit that compared to her so-called blood relatives, Jie Ge'an was quite friendly to her.
They really did save her; they never intended to abandon her.
Si Niannian composed herself, and before she could even pretend to have just woken up, a deep male voice sounded from outside the door: "I think her illness came on very strangely. You should take a look at her."
Xu Wuyang, still in that half-dead tone, listlessly said, "Medical fee."
Gu Yu brought up the ten gold bars that she had prepared beforehand, and Xu Wuyang lazily yawned: "Okay, where is everyone?"
The maidservant guarding the door opened it, and Xu Wuyang slowly stepped across the threshold, walked to the bedside, and saw Si Niannian's face. Suddenly, he was speechless.
How could it be this person?!
Xu Wuyang suppressed the strange feeling in his heart and solemnly took Si Niannian's pulse.
But……
Xu Wuyang slowly turned his head and looked at Jie Ge'an: "Is the Marquis teasing me?"
"What's wrong with her?"
He thinks that Jie Ge'an is the one who really has a problem!
Jie Ge'an remained expressionless, while Xu Wuyang grew somewhat annoyed: "If the Marquis is truly idle, why not go and wipe out the bandits?"
Why bother playing with him all day long?
Jie Ge'an then gestured for Gu Yu to lay out ten gold bars. The gleaming gold bars successfully silenced Xu Wuyang's incessant chatter, and he finally asked, "Are you sure you're alright?"
"Sure."
Xu Wuyang opened his medicine chest and said, "However, a few acupuncture treatments will help him wake up faster. I won't charge you any extra gold for the acupuncture; consider it a gift from me."
Jie Ge'an: "..."
He only offered to give away a few needles after accepting twenty gold bars; this so-called miracle doctor is truly insincere.
Despite his lack of sincerity, Dr. Xu possessed remarkable medical skills. Not long after the needle pierced her skin, Si Niannian, who had been unconscious for an entire afternoon, slowly opened her eyelids.
Si Niannian seemed still dazed, her eyes filled with confusion: "What is this?"
"The Lin Family Villa".
Jie Ge'an said calmly, "It's safe here, don't worry."
His birth mother came from the Lin family in Shannan, and this was the property he inherited from his maternal grandfather.
Si Niannian gave a vague "hmm" as if she understood, and her gaze on Xu Wuyang was as if she were looking at a stranger.
Xu Wuyang tactfully put away his consultation fee, picked up his medicine box, and said, "Since the patient is alright, I'll take my leave now."
Gu Yu saw Xu Wuyang out, and Jie Ge'an stopped three steps away from the bed, his back to Si Niannian, without glancing at the bed once.
A noble young master, exceptionally upright and dignified.
Jie Ge'an was a gentleman who upheld the highest moral standards.
Taking advantage of the fact that he couldn't see her, Si Niannian brazenly sized up his broad shoulders and narrow waist, mumbling, "How did I get here?"
"If I'm here, my family won't be able to find me."
Jie Ge'an: "..."
He almost couldn't bear to mention it.
Since Si Niannian disappeared, the Song family has never even considered looking for her!
There wasn't even a single servant to gather information!
Madam Song and Song Wen hurriedly led Song Qinghan into the city. After escaping home, they found the gate tightly shut, fearing that bandits might have chased them into their house.
The only one I heard about who was going to find Si Niannian, Lai Mama, apparently got locked up in the woodshed by Madam Song's orders.
For the first time, Jie Ge'an found it difficult to speak. After hesitating for a while, he said, "I haven't had time to send someone to the Song family to deliver a message, so they don't know you're here."
"But now that you're awake, get up and change your clothes. I'll send someone to take you back."
Si Niannian let out a sigh of relief, then said with a sigh, "It's better not to know, so they won't worry."
Jie Ge'an: "…………"
"However, I must say, I am very grateful to the Marquis for saving my life today." Si Niannian made no mention of recognizing her Ninth Uncle, her voice tinged with laughter, "If it weren't for the Marquis saving me, I might have died."
Jie Ge sighed almost imperceptibly, closed his eyes, and said, "I'll have someone come in and help you change your clothes."
"I'll take you back."
