Chapter 256 Intention
Seeing this, he touched his chin, his eyes full of intriguing thoughts.
Realizing the other party's intention, Song Ci looked up and thanked him.
"Thank you very much."
"It's okay, you should get some rest early, as we still have to travel tomorrow."
"good."
Turning around, a cold light flashed in Pei Ji's eyes as he looked at the young man in red. From the distance, it seemed as if sparks were crackling all around them.
"interesting."
Youcai: "Sir, what did you say?"
"I think this group of people is interesting. The leader looks quite capable, but he's useless to me."
Youcai patted his chest and said, "Young Master, your status and their status are naturally incomparable."
After getting up the next day, the group packed up and continued on their journey.
Song Ci didn't get a good rest. As soon as he got on the carriage, he collapsed on the soft bedding, as if all his strength had been drained away.
Seeing that she looked listless and always weak, Wanxiang became anxious and reached out to touch her forehead.
"really……"
Tian'er: "Miss, what's wrong?"
"The young lady has a high fever. Please ask Master Pei if he has any medicine."
Tian'er jumped off the horse and went to Pei Ji's carriage to explain what had happened.
Pei Ji lifted the curtain and frowned: "You were fine, why did you suddenly have a high fever?"
"I don't know either. Maybe I didn't get enough rest after traveling all the way."
Pei Ji said nothing more, and asked someone to bring medicine for the high fever, and asked Alin to get his cloak.
"Give it to her. Cover the fever well and it will be fine after she sweats. If there is anything wrong, tell me immediately."
Tian'er: "Yes."
After getting the medicine, Wanxiang gave it to Song Ci with hot water, and then wrapped Song Ci tightly with the cloak.
She seemed to be uncomfortable, with her brows furrowed tightly.
Wan Xiangtian didn't dare to relax all the way.
Until the lunch break, Song Ci still showed no improvement. His cheeks were flushed red and he began to mumble.
Saying things that people can't understand.
Wanxiang was so anxious that she went around in circles and found Pei Ji again.
"I'll go and see for myself."
Wanxiang hurriedly led the way, and as soon as they got on the carriage, they heard Song Ci yelling for his father, mother, and brother, intermittently begging for mercy, and crying at the top of his lungs.
Pei Ji: "Go get some cold towels. If this continues, everyone will become a fool."
Wanxiang: “Yes.”
"Go get some hot water. I'm afraid you'll have to take the pills again."
Tian'er: "Yes."
In this way, the three of them were busy all the time, and Song Ci's condition finally stabilized.
Pei Ji got off the carriage and asked A Lin to give instructions, telling them to rest here for a while and not to continue their journey.
Song Ci never got off the carriage and made no movement during the whole journey. Everyone probably guessed what was going on and naturally had no objection.
Except for one person.
"Why did you suddenly stop traveling? We'll be there in two days."
Ah Lin: "Miss Song is not feeling well. If we continue on this journey, it might be detrimental to her condition."
Zheng Yufu grumbled, "But it's not good to delay our journey because of her. There are so many people waiting."
The people around him could no longer tolerate it.
"Miss Song is not feeling well. Is there any problem with waiting for a day?"
"Yes, we are happy to wait."
"Why is it her again..."
"If Miss Zheng doesn't want to, you can go on your own."
Zheng Yufu was so angry. If she could travel on her own, why would she bother to join Pei Ji's team?
She just felt that these people were targeting her and hated her, all because of Song Ci.
After all, before this, he thought he got along well with everyone.
Just as everyone was tidying up and resting, the sound of horse hooves came from behind, kicking up dust all over the ground.
Pei Ji frowned and looked over. It turned out that he had run into the same group of people as before. He thought they would continue on their way, but he never expected them to stop.
There was an imperceptible coldness in Pei Ji's eyes.
"What a coincidence, we meet again."
The other party took the initiative to say hello and planned to stay for a while.
A Lin walked closer and lowered his voice: "Sir, what do these people mean?"
Pei Ji's tone was unclear: "Let everyone be alert. If they want to stay, let them stay, but don't let their people get close."
"yes."
A Lin also noticed something was wrong with these people, and even without Pei Ji's instructions, he naturally would not let them get close.
During this time, people on the other side frequently came over and started talking.
Everyone answered the question irrelevantly or simply ignored it.
After they left, Pei Ji asked, "What did they say when they came over?"
A-Lin: "He asked a bunch of random questions, none of which are important. What I'm concerned about is that he asked about Miss Song."
"She?" Pei Ji's eyes turned even colder.
"Yes, they asked why the young lady from the previous team didn't see it. Naturally, our people didn't answer."
Pei Ji glanced in the direction of Song Ci's carriage. He was sick and had attracted a troublesome person.
After taking the medicine several times, Song Ci finally became more sober. She had stayed in the carriage for too long, so Wanxiang took her out to get some fresh air.
Just got off the carriage.
She felt a burning gaze fixed on her. She glanced around, pausing briefly on the young man in red across from her. She turned her head and asked, "Why are they here too?"
Wanxiang told the story of their group.
"Miss, could this person be coming for you?"
Song Ci didn't dare to be careless, "No matter whether it is or not, don't be careless."
Her cheeks were red and her throat was a little hoarse from having a fever for a while. Her voice was not as clear as before, but it had a softer tone.
Mentioning the medicine, Song Ci went to thank Pei Ji again.
"No need. If I were sick, wouldn't you take care of me like this?"
He spoke so confidently that Song Ci didn't know where to start complaining.
Finally, Pei Ji reminded them, "Stay in the carriage today and don't go too far. These people on the other side have bad intentions. I'm afraid the one in red has his eye on you."
His voice was a little angry, which made Song Ci feel fresh.
"Look at what I'm doing."
"It's rare to see you angry."
"Shouldn't I be angry?"
"It shouldn't be."
Seeing his expression change, Song Ci quickly added, "It's not worth it."
Pei Ji smiled and said, "Go back and rest, I'm here."
In the past, Song Ci never liked to put his life and property in the hands of others. But these words coming from Pei Ji's mouth were inexplicably convincing.
She nodded blankly, looking a little silly, yet also a little cute.
Pei Ji was left in a state of confusion by her expression, yet he also felt that she was incredibly cute. He stared at her intently, as if he could never get enough of looking at her.
During the days when he was in a coma, everyone thought he knew nothing. But he could hear all the sounds from the outside world, everything Song Ci said, even the movements he made to take care of himself, he knew everything.
