Warm water and towels were ready, and Robert wiped the sweat from Shen Junyan's forehead and neck.
Shen Junyan's whole body was burning hot.
Whenever his mental illness flared up, the healing scars would produce painful hallucinations, and physically, they would also cause stress reactions such as vomiting, dizziness, and fever.
Then, Robert wiped Shen Junyan's body to cool him down physically, and then took out antipyretics and painkillers from his bag.
He and Jin Jianyi helped the boy take medicine, and comforted him for a long time before the boy gradually fell asleep peacefully.
The two left the lounge and came to Jin Jianyi's office.
Robert sat on the sofa, looked at the ceiling and sighed deeply.
In the past two years, the young master has had only a few attacks, and each one has been milder than the last.
Robert thought he could control his emotions well, but he didn't expect that this time it would be so serious that he had to be bedridden.
Although he didn't know what exactly happened, he roughly guessed that it was related to the five-year-old child...
"The Palace Master's mental illness refers to what happened five years ago." Jin Jianyi broke the silence. In his early years, he heard the big man mention the Palace Master's tragic experience in his childhood.
Robert did not hide anything from this loyal subordinate and nodded slightly.
He stared at the ceiling, his eyes filled with sorrow. "After Lord Shen passed away, the young master lost the protection of the Shen family. Shen Wangchang and Shen Quan, father and son, had no scruples, so they took ruthless action against him."
"I heard that when the Palace Master was rescued, he was already dying."
Robert sighed, "Yeah... There wasn't a single piece of healthy flesh on his body. Multiple wounds became infected and festered, causing him to have fevers all night long. The doctors said he was lucky that his brain wasn't damaged, but because of the physical and psychological trauma, he spent over three months recuperating in the hospital before he was considered almost fully recovered."
Jin Jianyi couldn't help but smile bitterly. "People outside say that our Greedy Wolf Hall is cruel. I think we are no better than Shen Wangchang and Shen Quan! After all, the Hall Master is the son publicly acknowledged by the Shen Hall. He calls them grandpa and uncle on a daily basis. Even if we are not blood relatives, there is still affection. How could he be so cruel..."
"The Shen family only has one legitimate daughter, so of course she's doted on and protected. If something happens when the two children play together, the young master, as the older brother, fails to take good care of his younger sister, so naturally he can't escape their punishment."
"This punishment is too severe..."
Jin Jianyi sighed deeply, lamenting that the palace master's life was so unfortunate.
Robert's eyes gradually became sharper, and a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "After five years of patience, it's time for revenge. In a few days, the Shen family will have a good show to watch."
"What's the good show?" Jin Jianyi couldn't help but ask curiously.
Robert pretended to be mysterious and smiled at Jin Jianyi: "You will know after the college evaluation is completed."
Evaluation...
Is there any intrinsic connection between the Palace Master's revenge and the academy's assessment?
After thinking for a while, I still had no clue.
Jin Jianyi sighed helplessly. There were still eight days before the evaluation, so he could only wait patiently.
…
At the school gate, at school dismissal time.
Tang Xiao saw the child coming out of the school with Gu Zheng and hurried to meet them.
His tone was alert: "Why are you here?"
Gu Zheng curled his lips and raised his eyebrows: "I haven't seen the baby for a few days, of course I miss her."
Tang Xiao's face darkened, and he protected Yun Nuan behind him like a hen protecting her chicks.
"Hey, she's my daughter now. You have no right to take her away."
Gu Zheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Who said I'm going to take it away?"
Immediately, he stretched himself, his expression a little boastful: "I've been with the baby all afternoon. You should take her back quickly. She must be tired."
“…”
Tang Xiao was so angry at Gu Zheng's mean look that the corners of his mouth twitched.
What a scoundrel! He actually came here to show off his presence while the children were in school.
He snorted angrily: "I will come over tomorrow to accompany the baby, and stay with him all day!"
"I'm afraid all the female teachers in the academy will come over to watch. It would be bad if it disturbed the children's classes."
"I don't care, I'm coming..."
