She ran desperately toward the light.
She felt like she was going crazy; her values and her consciousness were all in chaos at that moment.
Horrible! So terrifying!
Is this hell on earth?
She felt a chill run down her spine.
Suddenly, He You grabbed her hand from behind.
Li Baobei felt her blood freeze at that moment, and the hairs on her body stood on end.
She suddenly shook off the hand that was holding her.
He fell down, his whole body trembling.
She hugged herself tightly, tears streaming down her face. She didn't know how to face him; he seemed so unfamiliar and frightening.
He You squatted down, looking at her with a dark expression, his eyes seemingly filled with unspeakable pain.
He was about to touch her when her face instantly drained of all color.
He supported himself with both hands and backed away.
"Heyou, don't touch me, I'm scared, please..."
She leaned tightly against the wall; the feeling of having someone to lean on made her feel a little better.
Her tone was full of fear and terror.
She looked at him with unfamiliar eyes, as if she were seeing someone she had never met before.
The cries echoed throughout the prison, creating a desolate atmosphere.
He You felt a sharp pain in his heart, and at that moment, he felt utterly powerless.
His eyes gradually became vacant.
He You suddenly felt that the little girl who was trembling in the valley, crying and afraid that he would leave, seemed to be about to leave him.
A suffocating feeling enveloped his entire body, as if he were sinking into boundless darkness, never to rise again...
He opened his mouth, wanting to defend himself, but he knew that no matter what he said, it would not change the facts.
As soon as Anji entered, she saw the two people in the corner, and she seemed to have already guessed what had happened.
He You slowly stood up. "Take her back to the Li residence."
The atmosphere grew incredibly tense; no one made a sound, except for the faint sound of sobbing.
Li Baobei didn't know how she got back to the Prime Minister's residence. Her mind was in turmoil, and the images of the prison were violently stimulating every nerve in her body.
Upon returning to the Li residence, Li Baobei gradually became drowsy and lethargic.
Lying quietly in bed, eyes tightly closed, eyelashes fluttering from time to time, as if having a nightmare.
Bizhu was extremely anxious by the bedside, repeatedly touching her forehead, but she hadn't noticed any signs of fever in the afternoon.
Night fell, but the person in bed still hadn't woken up.
Bizhu touched Li Baobei's forehead again. "Ah, it's so hot?"
Bizhu hurriedly ran out of the mansion to fetch a doctor, only to find that it was too late and the pharmacy was already closed.
She went to several places and found that the doors were all tightly closed.
Tears streamed down her face as Bizhu pounded on the pharmacy door.
He pounded on the door while shouting, "Please, please save my young lady!"
No matter how much she knocked, no one came to open the door.
Bizhu was in despair. Time was dragging on and on, and she feared that her mistress would not be able to hold on any longer.
Just as Bizhu was about to run to another pharmacy, she saw a handsome man in white walking towards her.
The man was carrying a medicine box on his back.
Bizhu rushed over, knelt down, and cried out, "Please, doctor, save my young lady! She is unconscious now, and if she doesn't receive treatment soon, her life will be in danger. Please, sir, save her!"
"Let's go!" Zhong Lihe said calmly, as if he had been prepared for this all along.
Being dragged out of bed in the middle of the night is truly awful; he'd be genuinely grateful!
He had been standing on the street for ages before he finally saw this confused little maid running over.
It's tough! Being a person is so hard!
For me, the eldest disciple of the Immortal Valley Healer, to have achieved this much is truly unprecedented.
What's there to worry about! If I don't give you a good beating one of these days, I'll be letting down my status as your direct disciple.
When Zhong Lihe saw Li Baobei, he found that she had developed a high fever and was having convulsions. If she had arrived half an hour later, even Hua Tuo himself would have been powerless to help.
He took out several doses of medicine and gave them to Bizhu, telling her to brew them immediately.
Bizhu found it strange: Do doctors always carry medicine with them when they go out?
But time was of the essence, so I didn't think much of it and assumed that the young lady was just lucky.
As soon as Bizhu left, Zhong Lihe took out a red pill from the medicine box and put it into Li Baobei's mouth.
This is a Rejuvenation Pill that their Immortal Medicine Valley refined after many years of repeated experiments. Its value is immeasurable and it is priceless.
“Miss Li, you are truly blessed. If other doctors had come, they would probably have been helpless,” he said quietly, looking at her with lingering fear.
Bizhu returned shortly afterward with the prepared medicine, which she immediately gave to her mistress.
Upon realizing that the person who had just been standing there was no longer there, I sighed to myself, "They've gone so fast."
Not long after taking the medicine, Bizhu noticed that Li Baobei's body temperature had dropped significantly.
He couldn't help but admire in his heart: "The young man in white is truly a divine doctor! With just one glance, the young lady's temperature came down. He is no ordinary person."
Two figures appeared not far from the Prime Minister's residence, standing tall on the rooftop.
"How is she?" He You asked in a heavy tone.
Zhong Lihe said calmly, "The rescue was timely, and his life is temporarily out of danger."
"You should thank me properly. If it weren't for me, no one else in the capital could have saved her."
Thank you!
He You leaped into the air and disappeared from Zhong Lihe's sight.
"I wonder if it's a blessing or a curse?" Zhong Lihe said calmly, watching He You's departing figure, his voice drifting into the night.
