Chapter 43 Find a maid to guide that idiot downstairs [8]
There were no maids or servants around the waterside pavilion, only one person inside.
Achu walked in and saw the person lying on the chaise longue with their back to her.
She approached the chaise lounge, thought for a moment, and then walked around to the front of that person.
Achu lowered her head, about to speak, when she finally saw clearly the person leaning against the chaise longue.
The man was tall and slender with broad shoulders and a narrow waist.
She wore a deep red brocade robe, but her long, thick, black hair was casually loose.
He was exceptionally handsome, even to the point of being almost otherworldly. His feminine features prevented people from mistaking him for a woman.
His skin was very fair, which made the dark circles under his eyes appear more pronounced.
But this did not affect his good looks at all; on the contrary, it made him look like he was wearing smoky eye makeup, making his eye sockets more three-dimensional and deep.
His eyelashes were long and thick, and his eyelids were slightly drooping.
He was supporting his head with one hand and playing with a string of incense beads in the other.
Her hands were also very long and beautiful, with distinct joints.
The man's overall posture seemed very relaxed and comfortable, but when you noticed his furrowed brows and pursed lips, you could tell that he must be in a very bad mood.
Si Jinye didn't turn around when he heard the footsteps; he assumed it was an assassin.
He just didn't expect that this 'assassin' would actually get around to the front of him.
What? Afraid of assassinating the wrong target?
Normally, Si Jinye would have already dealt with this 'assassin'.
However, just now, inexplicably, his headache and tinnitus had lessened considerably.
It seems like I'm suddenly feeling better.
This somewhat eased Si Jinye's constantly volatile and murderous mood.
So he simply opened his eyes impatiently to look at the 'assassin,' intending to give 'him' a quick death.
He discovered that the woman standing in front of him was just someone who looked like she couldn't even be stepped on by an ant.
"Who are you?"
How dare you be so bold as to come and bother him!
Si Jinye's voice was somewhat hoarse and deep, and his tone was so cold it seemed to freeze.
Achu and Sijinye locked eyes. His eyes were also very beautiful, though somewhat red.
Coupled with his gloomy and irritable aura, it's easy for people to overlook his appearance and be frightened by his fierce demeanor.
Achu seemed to be startled.
She instinctively took a step back, lowering her eyes and avoiding his gaze.
"I'm...sorry...I'm lost...I want to ask for directions..."
A Chu's voice was very soft; if Si Jinye hadn't had such good hearing, he wouldn't have been able to hear what she was saying.
Si Jinye had no time to give directions; he simply uttered a single word: "Get lost."
Achu's face turned pale, and tears welled up in her eyes.
She hurriedly tried to leave, but perhaps in her panic, she bumped into a nearby table.
The table is definitely sturdier than her.
Ah Chu cried out in pain and fell backward.
Si Jinye watched as A Chu fell towards him.
He frowned even more, suspecting that the woman was there to seduce him.
Si Jinye quickly got up from the chaise longue, making no intention of picking anyone up.
He also noticed that the woman seemed afraid of touching him, and slightly controlled the direction of her fall so that she wouldn't fall straight onto the chaise lounge.
However, Achu still bumped into Si Jinye's arm.
During their brief contact, Si Jinye smelled a fresh and pleasant floral fragrance.
It's like a spring breeze bringing a natural floral fragrance.
Immediately afterward, the headaches and tinnitus that had been tormenting him seemed to disappear all at once!
He seemed to float away, and the world went quiet!
Si Jinye was stunned. Had he suddenly recovered?
While Si Jinye was thinking about these things, A Chu had already fallen to the ground.
She seemed to have hurt herself when she fell, and hersed.
Si Jinye only glanced at her, and considering that he was in a good mood at the moment, he didn't hold it against her.
He turned and left, intending to find the old doctor to examine him.
See if he suddenly recovered without medication?
Si Jinye had only taken a few steps when he suddenly stopped.
My headaches and tinnitus are back!
Si Jinye's brows, which had relaxed, furrowed again, and his expression darkened.
If he hadn't been fully conscious, he would have doubted whether what he had just experienced was an illusion.
I still need to go see the old doctor!
Achu remained seated on the ground, but she looked up at Si Jinye's departing figure.
She seemed to be frightened by Si Jinye, but she was actually paying attention to his reaction the whole time.
It seems the magic touch worked.
Achu didn't mind Si Jinye leaving directly. She already knew that winning him over would be much more difficult than winning over Wen Zhiyu from the previous world.
So her goal today is simply to have some interaction with Si Jinye.
This brief interaction was enough to achieve her goal.
Ah Chu got up from the ground; she had really hit the table hard.
She rubbed the spot she had bumped, straightened her skirt, and then walked out of the waterside pavilion.
-
Si Jinye did not leave Yiyuan. After he walked out of the waterside pavilion, he summoned his guards.
"Go and bring the old man over here."
The old man he was referring to was the legendary doctor Wu Ming.
The guard responded and disappeared again.
Si Jinye turned past the artificial hill and went to a pavilion not far from the waterside pavilion.
From the attic, you can also see the waterside pavilion where he had just been.
Si Jinye stood by the window, the sunlight shining on him, but it couldn't dispel his gloom.
The old doctor Wu Ming was soon brought to the guards.
Wu Ming was indeed brought here; his clothes were disheveled, and his gray hair was also messy.
As he tidied his hair and clothes, he complained somewhat speechlessly, "Your Highness! Couldn't you have invited me here in a gentler way?"
"If this happens a few more times, my old bones will fall apart!"
Si Jinye turned to look at him: "Then next time I'll invite you here in a grand sedan chair carried by eight men?"
Wu Ming coughed lightly: "That won't be necessary!"
He changed the subject, asking Si Jinye, "Your Highness, why did you summon me here so urgently? Are you unwell?"
Si Jinye: "When will my body recover?"
Wu Ming: "..."
Si Jinye walked to the chair and sat down, saying to Wu Ming, "Just now, I suddenly felt that my headache and tinnitus had been relieved a lot, and for a moment, my headache and tinnitus even disappeared."
"But soon, the headache and tinnitus returned."
Wu Ming straightened his expression.
He sat down in the chair next to Si Jinye and placed his armrests: "Come, Your Highness, let this old man take your pulse first."
Si Jinye placed his hand on the armrest.
Wu Ming began to take his pulse.
His brows furrowed tightly, and he closed his eyes.
After Wu Ming opened his eyes and withdrew his hand, he said to Si Jinye:
"Your Highness, your health has not improved at all."
Si Jinye asked, "Then why was I alright just now?"
Wu Ming thought for a moment and replied, "Perhaps it's your imagination?"
Si Jinye's eyes were gloomy, and his face was cold and sullen.
He didn't speak for a moment, and when he spoke again, he ordered the guards to take Wu Ming away again.
After Wu Ming left, Si Jinye got up and walked to the window again.
He saw the woman who had just been at the waterside pavilion, circling it several times like a fool.
Si Jinye: "Name Three."
A bodyguard named Third appeared in the attic: "Your Highness."
Si Jinye raised his chin: "Find a maid to lead the way for that idiot down there."
Guard: "Yes, Your Highness!"
