Rong Xi was startled and quickly helped Shen Zean to sit aside.
"How are you?"
It was so unfair. She really didn't use much strength. When did this guy's body become so fragile?
"I can't die yet."
Rong Xi pulled his hand over and gently placed it on Shen Ze'an's pulse.
She frowned. She had taken his pulse two days ago. How could he have become so weak in such a short time?
The internal energy in the body is almost dissipated. What is going on?
She now wished she could punch Shen Ze'an a few more times. It was like this again. Not only was he feeling unwell, but if it weren't for her punch today, she didn't know how long it would have lasted.
"Go back home."
Shen Ze'an could see that Rong Xi's face was not in a good state, and he reached out to hold her hand several times but was avoided.
He didn't dare to reach out again because Rong Xi looked really angry.
The two returned to the mansion, and Rong Xi took his pulse again and went to the kitchen alone to boil medicine.
He also couldn't understand why so much of his internal energy disappeared in such a short time.
She sat inside, while Shen Zean stood behind the wall outside the door.
He felt very uneasy, afraid that Rong Xi would really get angry and dislike him from then on. From the time they had been together until now, he had never seen such a cold expression on Rong Xi's face.
System [Rong Xi, the mission target is outside the door.]
Rong Xi didn't notice this. After hearing what the system said, he looked outside the door. As the supervisor of the Western Factory, even though he didn't have much internal strength in his body now, he still had the ability to hide himself from being discovered.
but……
The black corner of the clothes was still exposed. If Rong Xi had not been thinking about something just now, he would have been discovered long ago.
When Baohuan came back with the herbs, she saw Dugong standing outside the door. Just as she was about to ask for her luggage, she was silenced by Chen Ze'an.
"Don't say anything. Go in and don't tell anyone that you saw me here."
"yes."
Rong Xi didn't care about him and told him to stand if he wanted to. Shen Zean didn't leave until she finished boiling the medicine.
She sighed deeply, this person is real.
"Come in and take your medicine."
As soon as Shen Ze'an heard it, he knew it was him, but when did she find out? Did she know it from the moment he came?
No one came in, so Rong Xi called out again, "Come in and take your medicine. Do you want me to bring it to you?"
Now Shen Ze'an had to go out. He looked a little guilty. Maybe he had been standing outside the door for too long. When he moved suddenly, his legs were numb.
"Xier, I..." I wanted to explain, but didn't know how to start.
"Drink first, and then we'll talk after we finish drinking."
The bowl of medicine was finished after a few gulps, and the moon also quietly emerged at this time.
As the two of them walked back, Shen Ze'an wanted to reach out and hold Rong Xi's hand several times, but he pulled back.
Rong Xi was walking fast and thinking about something. He stepped on a stone and fell forward.
Shen Ze'an was so quick that he pulled the person into his arms.
"Xi'er, are you okay? Is your foot injured? Let me take a look.
"It's okay, go back."
Just as Rong Xi was about to leave, she was forcefully picked up by Shen Zean.
"It's getting dark. I'll carry you back."
Rong Xi did not refuse. Shen Ze'an was so happy that his steps became smaller and slower. The distance that usually only took a moment to walk took him two cups of tea.
"Walk faster, aren't you tired?"
"Holding you, I'm not tired."
"You are not tired but I am. Go back quickly."
Rong Xi spoke, and Shen Ze'an stopped wasting time and walked to the yard in a few steps.
After putting Rong Xi down, he brought out the medicine box and said, "I'll apply the medicine for you."
"I'm not hurt. Get up and let's talk."
Chen Ze'an felt inexplicably anxious. He always felt that Rong Xi would not talk about any topics he liked. Was she going to divorce him? Could it be that he had gone too far last night and she was dissatisfied with him?
Or maybe she felt that he was unable to protect her now that he had lost his inner strength, or something else.
"I remembered I still have some official business to finish. Let's talk when I get back."
After saying that, he was about to stand up and leave, but when he turned around, Rong Xi quickly grabbed the corner of his clothes.
"It's so late, how can you still be busy with official business? Are you avoiding me?"
Shen Ze'an appeared calm on the surface, but his heart was already in turmoil.
"No, I really have official business to attend to."
He grabbed the clothes behind him with one hand, trying to free it from Rong Xi's hands.
"Turn around and look at me."
Shen Ze'an turned around and saw Rong Xi's eyes, and looked away with a guilty conscience.
"Chen Ze'an, do you still want to live with me?"
Rong Xi didn't mean anything else, but this man was always avoiding communication now. She knew that Shen Zean was not like this before, and he would not stop if she didn't say so.
"Jiang Rongxi, I told you that after you follow me, you can only be mine and you can't go anywhere.
"So I'm asking you if you still want to live with me. You never want to tell me anything when you encounter something. You and I are husband and wife, and we are meant to spend our lives together. You're hiding things from me. Now is a small matter, but what about the future?"
Chen Ze'an knew that he was wrong, but he was still very happy to hear her say that she wanted to spend her life together. As long as she didn't want to divorce him, everything would be fine.
He sat next to Rong Xi and pulled up Rong Xi's sleeves, looking very flattering.
"Rong Xi, I've lived alone for far too long. When faced with problems, I only knew how to find solutions. Before I met you, I wouldn't even let my closest confidants know everything about me."
Rong Xi also felt that what he had just said was a bit serious, but the effect was still good.
"But since you suddenly have such a problem with your body, you should tell me so that I can prescribe the right medicine for you."
It was also her fault for being negligent during this period. The two of them only knew about that matter every day. Apart from the daily medicine he took, she never checked his body.
"I'm sorry, I was afraid that it would become like this and you would no longer like me. I will be more careful in the future. Please don't be angry, okay?"
Rong Xi frowned, feeling that he looked weird.
But he still replied, "Well, you are in a critical period of recovery now. You should tell me if there is even the slightest change."
"Okay, I'll tell you, I promise."
Rong Xi actually felt a little guilty. After all, he had just recovered. When he took his pulse just now, he noticed that it was also because he had not been paying attention to self-control during this period.
"Okay, take a break."
After the two of them lay down, Rong Xi told him about the Queen's pregnancy and the contract they had reached. Shen Ze'an remained silent the entire time. She thought that Shen Ze'an was angry because she had acted so presumptuously.
"Don't you want to cooperate with the Queen?"
"no."
Shen Zean returned to his businesslike demeanor.
"I already knew about the Queen's pregnancy, but I didn't expect she would look to you for protection."
Rong Xi turned around and faced Shen Ze'an. The moonlight was bright, and Shen Ze'an's outline was clearly reflected in Rong Xi's eyes.
It's true that no matter when, you will be amazed when you see him from such a close distance.
"Do you know who sent the Queen's portrait to Qing? I don't think the Qing prince's surprise when he saw the Queen was an act."
