Chapter 66: Personal Care



A faint morning light appeared on the horizon. On the small path leading to Yuehua Ancient Temple, the sound of galloping horses shattered the silence. A man on the horse had an upright figure, handsome and dignified, but the solemnity and worry between his brows ruined his face, which should have been even more handsome.

This person was An Zhongtao. He thought he was very angry with Lian Jinyu, but he didn't expect that when he saw the letter, his heart seemed to be torn apart. He didn't want to delay for a moment and finally rushed here day and night.

An Qingran opened the door and saw her father standing there with a frosted face. Her eyes misted over: "Daddy... I am useless..."

As he spoke, he pulled An Zhongtao's sleeve and came to the bed. An Zhongtao saw that Lian Jinyu's face was as pale as paper and her eyes were closed. He immediately called her name and sat down in front of the bed. Seeing that she still hadn't woken up, he couldn't help but ask An Qingran: "Have you found a doctor?"

"Mother was unconscious earlier because she was tired... The doctor prescribed some medicine and is decocting it now!" An Qingran sobbed. In fact, she knew that her mother was fine. "I'll go see if the medicine is ready..."

After saying that, he walked out and closed the door gently.

The morning in Yuehua Temple was extremely quiet and beautiful. An Qingran looked at the azure sky and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. Looking at her father's expression, she knew that he actually had her mother in his heart. Now, he only cared about his mother!

I hope she can let go of past grudges and give Dad a chance.

As for her, she finally put her worries to rest!

The temple's morning bell has rung, and a new day has begun...

Lian Jinyu opened her eyes. When she saw the person in front of her clearly, she couldn't believe it: "Zhong Tao, why are you here?"

An Zhongtao's eyes were moved, and he kept holding her hand: "Jinyu, you've lost weight..."

Just these few words from him made Lian Jinyu's nose ache and the grievances in her heart surge up again. How could she have wanted to come here to suffer? How could she not want to be a loving couple in the general's mansion?

Thinking of this, she turned her head away and ignored him.

At this moment, An Zhongtao felt only distressed, without any blame. When he rode to Yuehua Temple, all the good things in the past came into his mind. That year, he was hunting with his friends in the back mountain. When they were chasing a deer, they happened to meet Lian Jinyu who was hiking in the mountain. She looked righteous and stopped their horses, pointing out that spring was not the season for hunting as everything was sprouting. When they dismounted, the deer had already run away, but her stubborn and beautiful appearance captured his heart...

Yes, he just liked her persistence in justice and the strength in her character. Why, now he had forgotten everything and was angry at her for her stubbornness and liked her gentleness because of her stubbornness?

Thinking back now, she is still the righteous and outspoken little girl who dares to face the strong, but it is me who has changed. The more I think about it, the sadder I feel. I can't help but say, "Jin Yu, why are you doing this? You've been unconscious for a day and a night..."

Lian Jinyu was looking for her daughter, but she felt relieved when she saw An Qingran winking at her from behind An Zhongtao.

She looked at An Zhongtao and found that he was dishevelled, very different from his usual majestic image, and couldn't help asking, "When did you come?"

"Daddy came yesterday and has been taking care of mom for a day and a night. If mom doesn't wake up, daddy said he would kill the doctor!" An Qingran said cheerfully.

Lian Jinyu smiled bitterly: "It's a pity you could think of that!"

An Zhongtao also breathed a sigh of relief: "Qingran is exaggerating. If he doesn't wake up, I'm afraid I'll have to ask someone to call the imperial physician..."

"How can you be so delicate!" Lian Jinyu said as she sat up. An Zhongtao quickly took the brocade pillow and placed it behind her. His action was unusually gentle. Although Lian Jinyu did not say anything, she was somewhat moved.

An Zhongtao reached out and picked up the handkerchief to wipe her face. Lian Jinyu blushed and took it: "What are you doing? The child is here!"

"I'm wiping your sweat off... What? Are you afraid I can't do it well? Don't forget, I've wiped your face more than once in this day and night!"

"You're talking more nonsense!" Lian Jinyu glared at him.

"Yes, Daddy even wiped Mom's hands and feet!" An Qingran said with a smile from behind, "By the way, I have to go to Master Kong to see what class he is teaching..."

Without finishing his words, he turned around and ran out.

An Zhongtao looked at Lian Jinyu and smiled: "Qingran is becoming more and more sensible..."
