At this moment, Xiao An, who was drinking tea in the room, heard the knock on the door. She hurriedly dropped the teacup in her hand, patted her cheeks lightly, and scratched her hair. She climbed onto the bed quietly, lifted the quilt to cover herself, and coughed. She said to the outside, "Is it Guard Pang who is back?"
"Yes, I've got the medicine for Madam back. The waiter will bring it up soon after it's ready." Pang Yi said, pausing a little and speaking with some concern. "Is Madam feeling better?"
"No. I still... cough cough... feel very uncomfortable," Xiao An coughed twice and sighed weakly. "I have been taking medicine for so long. But it still doesn't get better. I am afraid that I can't get better... cough cough..."
Pang Yi frowned and said in a deep voice, "Madam, please don't let your imagination run wild. Today, I changed another pharmacy to get medicine. The doctor there is quite famous. The doctor said that Madam's condition is not serious, and she should take a few doses of medicine first. If she still doesn't get better, I will directly invite the doctor to treat her."
As soon as Pang Yi and Xiao An arrived in Jilin, Xiao An fell ill and has been bedridden for ten days. Pang Yi had originally planned to rush to Ningguta before New Year's Eve to celebrate the festival with Zhong Mingwei, but Xiao An's illness naturally delayed his plan. Not to mention celebrating the festival with Zhong Mingwei, he has been running around these days to find doctors and prescriptions for Xiao An, and he hasn't had a good night's sleep for several days.
"No, no, no... no need," Xiao An sat up in a hurry, coughed twice, and then lay down slowly, while continuing weakly, "Then drink the medicine first, and we'll talk after you finish it..."
"Then has Madam eaten yet?" Pang Yi asked again, "Just now the waiter said that he has brought dumplings up to Madam. Has Madam eaten yet?"
Xiao An looked at the two large bowls of cold dumplings on the table, and recalled the greasy taste of the fat meat she had just eaten. She almost vomited again. She was covering her mouth when she heard Pang Yi say outside: "The dumplings are greasy, I'm afraid Madam, you can't eat them. I'll go and fry two refreshing dishes for you. Madam, what do you want to eat? Rice or noodles?"
Xiao An looked at the two bowls of dumplings, her nose a little sour, and she whispered, "I want to eat dumplings with three fresh fillings."
Pang Yi was startled, paused, and then said to the room: "I'm afraid we can't get the three-fresh filling here. Would the madam like to eat the tofu vermicelli filling?"
"Is it delicious?" Xiao An sniffed and reached out to touch her rumbling stomach.
"It's delicious," Pang Yi pursed his lips and smiled, "Madam, please sleep for a while. I'll go downstairs and prepare it."
"Oh," Xiao Anshi responded hurriedly, and added a little embarrassedly, "Can you pack it for me now?"
"Yes, I'll prepare it right away." Pang Yi was stunned for a moment, then quickly responded and hurried downstairs.
The man's footsteps became smaller and smaller, and finally disappeared completely. Xiao An stared straight at the gray bed curtains, then let out a long sigh and pulled the quilt to cover her face. But as soon as she smelled the smell on the quilt, she hurriedly used her hands and feet to kick the quilt to the ground.
"Ouch!" Xiao An rubbed her already messy hair irritably.
It's not a good idea to keep pretending to be sick like this, but what other options does she have?
In fact, these few days, Pang Yi had been running around to get medicine for her and to see doctors. She had a chance to escape, but she was a weak woman who couldn't lift anything with her hands or shoulders. Where could she run? What's more, it was a snowy day like this, and she couldn't even take a step.
and……
Thinking of that night in Shengjing half a month ago, when that vicious man raised a knife to her, Xiao An suddenly shuddered all over and immediately buried her head between her legs.
If it weren't for Pang Yi, I would have died long ago. How could I still be here pretending to be sick?
So, she really didn't dare to escape. She was now like a frightened bird. Except for Pang Yi, she couldn't find any safe and reliable place.
But if we don’t escape, what will we do if we end up in Ningguta?
The stern, contemptuous and arrogant face of the man suddenly emerged in Xiao An's mind, and she immediately took a breath of cold air.
"Ahhh!" Xiao An kicked her legs wildly on the bed, making the bedding a mess. She sat on the bed angrily for a long time, then silently crawled down and picked up the quilt on the ground.
