Chapter 113
When I went back, the lights in the back room were off, and the food box was still on the windowsill, the exquisitely shaped osmanthus cake inside had gone cold.
I didn't eat a single bite.
Shen Rang wanted to call her, but he couldn't bring himself to say it.
When he left, he told Yunxi to wait for him.
What are we waiting for him for?
Seeing Shen Rang standing silently by the window, Jing Yuan quickly lowered his voice and said, "Young Master, please go back quickly. Don't worry, I will put more people in this courtyard tomorrow to protect the Second Miss very well!"
Shen Rang gave a bitter smile.
There's no better way than this now.
He turned and left, but instead of resting in the bedroom at Liuyun Garden, he went to Shuiyang Tower to rest.
——
The next day, Yunxi was awakened by pain.
My knee injury wasn't fully healed to begin with, and I injured it again yesterday, so now it's a double injury, and I can't even sleep well.
Jixiang was a thoughtful person. Early in the morning, when she came to bring her breakfast, she said, "Mother Zheng has already gone to fetch the doctor. He should arrive soon. Second Miss, please eat first."
Yunxi nodded slightly and sighed, "Thank you for your trouble."
"What are you saying, young lady? If you really want to say something..." Jixiang tilted her head subtly, but didn't finish her sentence.
Jixiang sighed, "Fortunately, the young master is thinking of you. Mama Zheng cares a lot about the young lady. She asked me about the young lady's condition yesterday. However, the young lady was in a bad mood yesterday, so I didn't dare to disturb her. Otherwise, Mama Zheng would have gone out to find a doctor yesterday."
Speaking of Shen Rang, a question suddenly arose in Yunxi's mind.
Before Shen Rang left yesterday, he told her to wait for him, but she fell asleep shortly after lying in bed and had no idea what Shen Rang had done.
If Shen Rang comes again today, she'll have to ask him first.
Yunxi quickly finished her breakfast, went to see the doctor again, had her plaster changed, and then lay back down in bed.
Having just regained my freedom two days ago, I'm already confined to bed again.
Yunxi looked at the roof and sighed deeply.
——
As dusk approached, Shen Rang returned on time.
He was still holding the food box he had brought for Yunxi, but he was stopped as soon as he entered the house.
"Your Highness, this is from Duan Jieyuan. He said he made it himself and thanked you for giving him the notes, which he found very helpful."
As the servant spoke, he handed him a cotton bag.
Shen Rang took it, opened it, and found that it was actually a sophisticated Kongming lock inside.
Jing Yuan was immediately astonished upon seeing this: "I never would have guessed that this top scholar had such skillful hands!"
Chen Rang remained silent, put the Kongming Lock back, and then walked forward.
I didn't eat properly yesterday, and I don't know if I've eaten today.
