Madam Meng was so frightened that she staggered. If the old woman behind her hadn't reacted quickly, she would have fallen to the ground.
This nemesis! What is she planning to do now?
The little maid was still sobbing as she said, "Please go and see! The young mistress has already gone to find the eldest young master!"
"The young master is still not in good health, and I'm afraid that the young mistress's anxiety will make his condition worse!"
Upon hearing this, Madam Meng's mind went blank with anxiety, and after taking two steps forward, she collapsed to the ground.
"Madam! Madam!"
Yanshoutang is in complete chaos...
Meng Zhixuan was placed in a quiet courtyard.
When Wei Wei arrived, he was still unconscious.
Xiao Yue'er waved away the maidservant serving her and gently closed the door.
Only an unconscious person and Wei Wei, whose expression was inscrutable, remained in the room.
She looked at the person lying motionless on the bed, her eyes filled with coldness.
After not seeing each other for a day, Meng Zhixuan looked much older.
This struck Wei Wei as extremely ironic.
Yesterday I was thinking about how to kill myself, but now I'm lying in bed like a useless person.
"Zhixuan." She suddenly looked at him and spoke, her voice echoing softly in the room: "You'd better wake up soon."
The person remained completely still, not even a tremor of their eyelashes.
Wei Wei moved closer, observed him carefully for a moment, and then sat down on the edge of his bed.
How could you be so careless?
Her voice rang out again, her fingers resting on her still swollen arm.
He tapped it casually.
"It's so tragic, it breaks my heart to see it."
These words, though spoken with concern, sound like they come from the deepest hell, always making one's heart tremble with unease.
Those crippled fingers finally twitched.
Wei Wei revealed an unkind smile.
This beast with a guilty conscience is unable to move, and there's no one else in the house; he's scared.
Wei Wei acted as if she hadn't noticed anything, and placed her hand on Meng Zhixuan's face again, her tone full of regret: "What a handsome face you used to have, and now you've become so weak and frail..."
The finger slowly slid down and finally stopped on his throat.
Meng Zhixuan felt a tightness in his throat, as if a rope was strangling him, threatening to kill him!
"No!" he cried out in utter terror.
Their eyes finally opened!
It wasn't a dream! There really was a hand moving across his throat!
He felt a suffocating tremor.
"What's wrong? Did you have a nightmare?"
A cold hand landed on his forehead, and the voice became tense and fearful.
Wei Wei is still that foolish woman whose eyes are only for him.
Meng Zhixuan was breathing heavily.
If he weren't completely powerless at that moment, he would have definitely thrown his hand further away!
"So you dare to come back now?" he said hoarsely, glaring at her fiercely.
Wei Wei wasn't in a hurry. She raised her handkerchief and wiped away non-existent tears from the corners of her eyes: "My husband is unwell. I'll crawl back even if I have to."
Meng Zhixuan glared at her fiercely: "You're saying all this now, but what were you doing back then?"
Wei Wei sobbed, "No wonder my husband didn't know, after all, you just woke up."
"When I saw you faint, it was so heartbreaking that I fainted too."
"It's a pity my body is too weak; I can't hold on for even a moment longer..."
"Thank goodness you're alright. If even the slightest thing had happened to you, I would never forgive myself!"
After saying that, she threw herself against Meng Zhixuan's chest and burst into tears.
Meng Zhixuan was so overwhelmed that he could hardly breathe.
A flash of pain crossed his face, and he opened his mouth wide, managing to utter only a few words with all his might: "Get up!"
"No! I won't!" Wei Wei cried out, "I only thought of coming back to see you when I had my last breath, but what are the maids and servants in the mansion saying behind my back?"
"They actually called me a jinx!"
At this point, she cried even louder.
Meng Zhixuan's face showed increasing pain. He tried to push her away in vain, but Wei Wei seemed to be attached to him.
The people in the manor are right, this person is their nemesis! She wants to bring misfortune upon their entire family!
In his last moments of lucidity, Meng Zhixuan gritted his teeth and vowed that once he recovered, he would torture that damned woman from before until she wished she were dead!
Meng Zhixuan fell completely still, and Wei Wei also raised her head.
Since you're already lying down, there's no need to rush to get up again.
She slowly and deliberately removed the gauze from Meng Zhixuan's injured hand, took out a packet of medicine powder from her sleeve, and carefully applied it to Meng Zhixuan's arm.
Only after things returned to normal did I breathe a sigh of relief.
Just bear with it.
Once you get rid of the people you care about, it will be your turn.
——
When Master Meng arrived like a gust of wind, she was carefully covering Meng Zhixuan with a blanket.
Before the ferocious look on Master Meng's face had completely faded, Wei Wei frowned and said, "Father, keep your voice down, don't wake Zhixuan."
"Look at him, he's been tortured beyond recognition in just two days, it's a real tragedy."
Master Meng was slightly overweight, and not nearly as big as his younger brother.
Fortunately, Meng Zhixuan resembled his mother; otherwise, how could he have fooled her for a lifetime?
Wei Wei thought with a wicked sense of humor that Madam Meng was able to marry into the family probably because she mistook the Second Master for the First Master.
