Chapter 63: Unpredictable
After waiting for half an hour, Jiaoran felt relieved when he saw his senior sister vomiting a pool of black blood again. That day, when Xu Mengchou poisoned her, his senior sister also vomited blood, so she should be fine.
The damn Xu Mengchou clearly said that Senior Sister would get better after the poison was removed, but now she is getting worse and worse. I will definitely not forgive her the next time I see her.
After the acupuncture, the doctor removed the silver needle from Zhuxing's body and fed her a pill.
"The poison she was poisoned with was a Gu poison, very cold. Once this pill dissolves, the remaining poison in her body should be cleared quickly."
"So what should I do?"
"Take off her clothes and remove her bedding to prevent her from sweating too much."
"good."
When Jiaoran saw the doctor leave, he was about to slip back in, but he heard the door close. Before he could react, the lights in the room went out.
She suddenly felt that her vision was not clear.
It took a moment to adjust before I could see Chai Che and my senior sister in the darkness.
What does he want to do?
Chai Che walked to the bed and lifted the mattress, leaving only the bamboo mat. She was wondering why they didn't find a maid to take care of her senior sister.
Looking closely, he helped his senior sister up and undressed her in the dark. Huh?
Undress senior sister?
Are you going to take off senior sister’s clothes just like that?
She wants to kill that rat, Cha Che.
Just as he was about to challenge him, Shao Feng's voice came from outside, "Doctor Pan, I'm here to get the medicine for the next few days."
Jiaoran looked back, climbed up to a high place and looked into the distance, and indeed saw Shao Feng's figure in the yard.
Mu Jin is injured? Why is he here to get medicine?
It was during this moment of distraction that a short arrow suddenly shot into the house.
Jiaoran slipped and fell from the tree. Fortunately, it was not high. She stood firm after a moment of panic. The short arrow was embedded in the tree trunk. Fortunately, she dodged quickly.
"who?"
Jiaoran should have gone in and argued with him, and she intended to do so, but she heard Shao Feng's voice right after she heard Mu Jin's voice.
"Sir, you're so thoughtful to come with her."
Mu Jin smiled and said, "Where's my second brother? I just happened to come visit. Is he not here?"
Jiaoran was upset. Although he knew that he had returned to the Governor's Mansion, he was now so close to him. He could reach him in a few steps. Fortunately, it was at night. If it was daytime, they would be able to see each other.
She was not afraid of seeing Mu Jin again, but she didn't know how to face him. Last time, it was her weapon that killed him faster than her words. If she had been more ruthless, she could have killed him on the spot.
She is still too soft-hearted.
Will he be sad for his father now that his father is dead?
That was his father, not her father, but she was the only one who was in agony that day.
Mu Jin and A Niang are both equally vicious. She should no longer have any illusions about him. Moreover, he and Fenghuang Chu had set up a trap that almost killed her.
He is definitely not a good person.
However, Chai Che had already opened the window upstairs. He looked at Jiao Ran below, but said to Mu Jin in the distance, "Mu Jin, you're here?"
After saying this, he went downstairs and told his attendants to keep an eye on the area around the small building. Jiaoran was glared at by him, and his reasonableness became unreasonable.
It's funny. She wasn't the one who did anything wrong, so what is she afraid of?
Mu Jin walked over, getting closer and closer. Shao Feng followed behind him and walked over as well.
Jiaoran gritted his teeth and turned around to pay his respects without saying a word.
"Is there a stranger in the mansion?" Shao Feng asked.
Jiaoran looked up and saw that one of her eyes was bandaged, as if it was injured.
How did it hurt my eyes?
It must be Mu Jin. She hadn't noticed before that everyone in Si Yuyuan was secretly staying away from him. Now thinking about it, it must be because he was cruel by nature, so no one dared to approach him easily.
He was afraid that the secret would be leaked when the servants came to get the medicine, so he followed behind. To outsiders, he seemed to be a kind and tolerant master, but in fact, he was cruel and ruthless, a beast in human clothing.
Chai Che said, "He? He's the new guard at Ah Hui's garden, named Bai Yu Gou. Ah Hui said during the day that he wanted the tranquilizing tea I brought back from Chang'an, so he sent someone here right away."
She didn't need to look him in the eye, pretending not to know him was also funny. The two of them had fooled around in Si Yu Garden for a while and did almost everything, except that they didn't really become husband and wife. They made love all night long, her fingertips brushed across his body, and his breath swept across her neck.
Mu Jin was like an untimely drizzle to her, wet and annoying but not enough to make her catch a cold or get sick.
Shortly before he got married, he kissed her wantonly, and she was almost breathless from the kisses. But three years later, when they met again, she wounded him with a sword without even exchanging a few words.
Now that she could speak, she covered her face with another person's and changed her identity. When she stood in front of him, he couldn't recognize her.
She was the only one who retained hatred, and that hatred continued to grow, pressing on her chest and making it ache.
Why had he set up a plan to kill her once, and she still treated him so gently, letting him go? With that one strike of the sword, could he have forgiven her the fear she'd endured that day, trapped in the secret room and bled out? Could he have forgiven her for all the hardships she'd endured along the way? Could he have forgiven her for the pain of losing everything in one night?
With trembling hands, she took the calming tea given to her by the servant and put it in a brocade bag. It emitted a faint fragrance that was so annoying that it made her dizzy.
She bowed and was about to leave, but the next moment, Mu Jin's hand suddenly grasped her shoulder and said, "Wait a minute."
Jiaoran suddenly felt the weight of half of her shoulder being held by him. She shook unconsciously, turned around, and still said nothing.
"What's wrong?" Chache asked him.
Mu Jin chuckled, "Don't worry, I'll bring some back too. I haven't been able to sleep well these past few days."
As he spoke, he spread out his hands and extended them in front of Jiaoran.
For a moment, she didn't understand what was going on with Mu Jin. Could it be that he had seen through her disguise? But it seemed that Shao Feng didn't recognize her.
She stopped thinking about it. Why should he play her around like that when she had done nothing wrong? No matter if he saw through her or not, she could just tear off her disguise and stand in front of him. What could happen?
Is she still afraid of him?
Chai Che waved his hand and asked her to come closer. "This pack is for Master Mu Jin. Please wait a moment and I will give you a new pack."
Jiaoran was interrupted by him and felt upset.
She was so annoyed that she couldn't understand why she hated him or why she wanted to.
Love also... love is incomprehensible.
What kind of person is Mu Jin?
Good guy? Or bad guy?
He always made her feel incomprehensible. In fact, she had never seen through him. On the contrary, in front of him, she was as clear as a basin of water, allowing him to see through her at a glance.
She was so shallow and ridiculous that she was fooled by him.
The smiles he gave her were not out of kindness, but of contempt.
He saw through her identity as a spy, or perhaps he knew it from the beginning, but he wanted to use her, so he pretended to be a naive and ignorant young man who had never seen the world.
Jiaoran thought of the poisonous snake he kept mentioning. Oh, so that's how it was. It seemed that there really was a poisonous snake in Yuyuan.
That’s him—Mu Jin.
