"Sir, your injury has not healed yet. I will go down and pick edelweiss for you." Xu An said as he began to take off his clothes.
Lu Yunting half-closed his eyes and looked at the cold surface of the pool. He said in a calm voice, "I told you, don't make unnecessary sacrifices under any circumstances. That kind of behavior is stupid."
Xu An pursed his lips, stared at Lu Yunting with a firm gaze and said, "For me, sacrificing my life for you is not a meaningless sacrifice under any circumstances."
Hearing this, Gu Linger couldn't help but look at Xu An deeply.
Really loyal!
No wonder he cried so bitterly on the edge of the cliff that day, as if his entire family had died.
After Lu Yunting pondered for a moment, he raised his eyelids and uttered two words, "Back off."
"male……"
"I promised her that I would return safely." Lu Yunting interrupted him softly, "I will not break my promise."
Xu An frowned and looked at him in silence for a moment, then slowly made way for him, but did not forget to remind him.
"Sir, Miss Jiang has many outstanding suitors around her. If you are missing some limbs or have any other defects, she may not want you."
Lu Yunting: “…”
Gu Ling'er's cheeks turned red. Is the word "no" what I understood it to mean?
Or am I thinking wrongly?
Lu Yunting gave her a warning look: "If you say that to her again, I will stop you!"
"Then you must come back alive, or I won't be able to control my mouth."
Lu Yunting curled the corners of his mouth slightly, then took off his coat and shoes.
After tying himself up and taking the pills given by Gu Ling'er, he put one foot into the ice pool.
As soon as he touched the pool water, Lu Yunting felt a biting cold sweeping through his body, and the flowing blood seemed to be gradually solidifying.
He used his internal energy to resist the cold, then stepped his second foot into the pool and walked towards the center of the pool step by step.
The closer you get to the center of the pool, the deeper the water level becomes, and the colder it gets. Lu Yunting's face turned pale, and his feet gradually lost feeling.
He was determined to get Edelweiss!
As soon as this thought came to his mind, Lu Yunting dived into the pool and his figure was submerged in the water.
Xu An was on the shore, clenching his fists and watching nervously, "Sir, you must come up alive!"
Gu Ling'er looked at the rippling surface of the pool with deep eyes. Lu Yunting's pulse was different from that of an ordinary person, but it was still unknown whether he could come up alive.
In the ice pool, Lu Yunting swam towards the bottom of the pool little by little with his obsession of finding the murderer of his father and his promise to Jiang Yueyang.
However, the water became colder as he went deeper, his hands and feet began to lose control, and his consciousness began to blur.
Then, memories from many years ago slowly emerged in my mind.
That year, he was ten years old.
That day was the Lantern Festival, and also the eve of his going to the border to guard the frontier.
Before leaving, he went to his parents' grave to say goodbye to them, but unexpectedly he was chased by a group of men in black.
The men in black killed everyone around him and abducted him, apparently intending to use him to control the Lu family army.
However, one of the men in black hated his father to the core, so when he learned that the leader of the men in black did not intend to kill him for the time being, he secretly took him away.
The men in black hung him over the fire and roasted him, then threw him into a lake as cold as an ice pool and soaked him, torturing him repeatedly in this way for several hours.
Finally, the man in black, whose revenge was satisfied, sank him to the bottom of the lake.
Perhaps God had mercy on him and he swam up alive.
He stumbled away from the place and finally fainted in an uninhabited house.
He didn't know how long he slept, he only knew that there was a soft and sticky voice echoing in his ears.
"Little brother...little brother...wake up."
Lu Yunting suddenly opened his eyes and regained consciousness instantly. I can't die here!
She is still waiting for me to come back!
After finding himself being pulled up, Lu Yunting pulled the rope to indicate that he was fine.
Then he raised his fingers, tapped himself twice, and swam quickly to the bottom of the pool.
After a while, he saw the snow-white Edelweiss.
Seeing the bottom of the pond full of Edelweiss, he subconsciously thought of Jiang Yueyang.
The bottom of the pond was covered with fine sand. Lu Yunting grabbed the roots of the Edelweiss and pulled it out gently.
It was not easy to stay at the bottom of the pond for long, so he pulled out a few edelweiss plants and swam quickly upwards.
"Why hasn't the young master come up yet?" Xu An was very uneasy.
Gu Ling'er's face was heavy, "Nothing will happen, right?"
At this moment, ripples appeared on the water surface, and Lu Yunting broke out of the water, holding the Edelweiss tightly in his hand.
Xu An cried with joy, "Sir, I'm so glad you're okay."
After Lu Yunting got ashore, he was shaky and looked very weak.
"Miss Gu, please take a look at my young master."
Gu Ling'er hurriedly felt his pulse and said, "It's okay. No internal organs were injured. He will be fine after taking some medicine in a few days."
After he finished speaking, Lu Yunting fainted.
"Young Master!" Xu An screamed.
"Hurry up and carry him back. He needs to keep warm now."
＊＊＊
Speaking of which, in the capital, the morning court session has just ended.
Jiang Yueyang walked out of the Hall of Supreme Harmony with a rather unhappy look on her face. Her right eye had been twitching before, and she subconsciously thought that something had happened to Lu Yunting.
It is said that if your left eye twitches, you will have good fortune, and if your right eye twitches, you will have disaster. You must be safe!
When Minister Jiang was leaving, he saw that his girlfriend looked pale and he was worried so he chased after her.
"Yangyang, are you feeling unwell?"
Jiang Yueyang shook his head, "Dad, I'm fine."
"You don't look like you're alright." Minister Jiang grabbed her hand and said, "Come on, dad will take you to the Imperial Hospital to see the doctor."
The officials around saw this and walked over to express their concern, "Master Xiao Jiang, please take care of your health."
"Yes, yes, don't be afraid to seek medical treatment."
When the Crown Prince and the Third Prince and his brothers heard the noise, they hurried over and saw a slightly pale face.
"Jiang Yueyang, you seem to be sick." The third prince blurted out without thinking.
Jiang Yueyang: "..."
"Third brother, watch your words!" the prince scolded softly.
The Third Prince realized that his words were ambiguous and smiled at Jiang Yueyang embarrassedly, "Do you have a fever?"
As he spoke, he subconsciously reached out to test the temperature of Jiang Yueyang's face, but Minister Jiang grabbed his arm in time.
"Your Highness."
The third prince withdrew his hand in disappointment and made no more moves.
Afterwards, Minister Jiang led Jiang Yueyang towards the Imperial Hospital regardless of her objection.
"Dad, I'm really fine."
"I think something's wrong with you."
"I'm really fine. Don't I know my own body?"
"You can find out whether there is anything wrong after seeing the imperial physician. You don't have the final say."
As he was speaking, Minister Jiang saw an imperial physician walking in front of him carrying a medicine box.
He hurriedly shouted, "Please ask the doctor in front to stay."
The imperial physician turned around upon hearing the voice.
System: [Host, there is something wrong with that imperial physician. ]
