Yan Qingqiu also rushed in. He broke off a piece of the Ganoderma lucidum he had just picked and stuffed it into An Yan's mouth, then said, "An Yan, you have to explain this matter clearly."

An Yan felt like she couldn't hear or see anything, and her mind was blank. She finally gave up because she had done everything she should have done and thought of every possible way, but nothing worked.

She had no choice but to accept her fate, but she hated accepting it.

For the first time, she felt how insignificant she was and how she could not be taller than the sky.

Mei Die quickly explained herself: "I don't know why she is like this. I didn't expect the poison in my body to be so strong that it would hurt her."

It was obviously a lie, but Yan Qingqiu did not expose her. He only said to Li Rongsen: "Lay her down and let her rest for a while. I will go to prepare the medicine, and then get a basin of hot water and some clean clothes."

Li Rongsen agreed and carefully laid An Yan flat. Just as he was about to leave, he heard Yan Qingqiu say, "Bring some food over here."

"You go, I'll stay." Li Rongsen was worried about leaving An Yan.

Mei Die quickly said, "I'll go, you all stay here and take care of her." After saying that, she was about to leave the house.

But Yan Qingqiu held her hand and said, "You are a guest, you stay." He was just afraid that she would run away, and he would not have time to look for her later.

Meidie also guessed his intention and said, "I won't leave."

"I'm fine." An Yan finally spoke. Her voice was indeed very steady, and there was nothing different in her voice. It was just that she looked a little hopeless.

Li Rongsen was still worried. He said, "It's really strange. Your pulse is stable and you don't seem to be sick or poisonous. But why would it cause such great harm to your body?"

"I'll go back to the room and take a shower." An Yan said as she was about to get up.

But Li Rongsen picked her up and said, "You are not allowed to walk. I will carry you. Anyway, I am also a slave of West City. I am not embarrassed. This is also my job scope. No one will gossip."

An Yan did not refuse, and she didn't want to refuse. Perhaps the days she would be with him would not last long, and they were destined not to be together.

The hot water made my body feel much more comfortable, and my relaxed skin seemed to feel less noticeable of the mark.

An Yan leaned on the edge of the bathtub, gently stroking her collarbone. She really couldn't think of any better way. She wanted to keep Li Rongsen by her side, but she couldn't give him anything. Did she have to let him wait for the rest of his life?

This is not possible. She can't be so selfish.

That Lingxian said that she and Li Rongsen were destined to be together, and that she had once been his wife. It seemed that they had a deep connection. She couldn't help but feel a little jealous, yet also felt it was ridiculous.

It seemed that she had no destiny with Li Rongsen in these past few lives. She had met him, brushed shoulders with him a few times, and made eye contact with him, but they might not even have had the destiny to speak to each other.

It's a bit shallow, but I happen to encounter it again in this life.

Someone outside the house shouted, "An Yan, are you okay?" It was Li Rongsen's voice. He had been waiting in the yard.

"I'm fine." An Yan answered him, and walked out of the bathtub, changed into clean clothes and came out, and then said, "Come in, I'm fine now."

Yan Qingqiu was the first to jump in and asked, "Are you hungry?"

"Are you all full?" An Yan asked.

"I didn't eat much." Yan Qingqiu said as he sat down at the table and motioned Li Rongsen to sit down as well.

Li Rongsen said, "This is freshly cooked food, it's hot, please eat it, and we'll eat some with you so you don't get bored."

"I know you definitely haven't eaten. Yan Qingqiu must have eaten a little." An Yan knew their temperaments very well. She guessed right. As she spoke, she picked up a chicken leg and gave it to Li Rongsen first, then to Yan Qingqiu, and said, "Where's Meidie? Has she eaten? If not, call her to eat."

"We have arranged a room for her and sent her food." Yan Qingqiu said that he and Li Rongsen had just interrogated her, using all sorts of tricks, including persuasion, coercion and inducement.

Unexpectedly, the woman kept her mouth shut and refused to say anything, just saying she didn't know.

"Is the poison in her body so difficult to cure?" Yan Qingqiu asked.

"I'm fine. You've already checked my pulse. Don't hold on to this matter anymore." An Yan lowered her eyes and took a sip of soup.

Li Rongsen winked at Yan Qingqiu, signaling him to stop talking.

Yan Qingqiu had no choice but to shut up and start eating.

"After dinner, take a good look at those name tags. I think some of them are very good." An Yan said to Li Rongsen.

Li Rongsen, contrary to his usual behavior, did not resist at all. He just said, "Let's see tomorrow. Go to bed early."

"That's fine. There's still time. Maybe the person who comes later will be better." An Yan said calmly.

Lingxian came in from outside, followed by several servants, and said, "I see you've been busy all night, and you should replenish your bodies. I specially cooked a few dishes myself, come and have a taste."

"Okay." An Yan agreed immediately and told the servants to remove some dishes and put out the ones made by Lingxian.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Lingxian made three things in total. The first was cherry meat yam, the second was bird's nest and duck soup, and the last was fruit porridge.

An Yan thought her cooking skills were really good. These were all dishes that ancient emperors would cook. She said, "You are really clever and skillful. These are royal dishes. You can see how much effort you put into them."

Li Rongsen first picked up a bite of food for An Yan and said, "Try it, don't burn your mouth."

Lingxian smiled and said, "These are what only the emperor can taste. They are perfect for Mr. Li."

An Yan remained calm. She seemed to have heard the hidden meaning behind Lingxian's words. She thought that Li Rongsen must have been an emperor in one of his previous lives. If so, then she would be the queen.

Yan Qingqiu said, "What royal cuisine? It's shitty cuisine. This is the modern age. Don't use feudal ideas. It sounds old-fashioned." He scooped a bowl of duck soup for himself and said, "It's just so-so. It's far inferior to Anyan's cooking."

"I can't cook royal dishes." An Yan said casually.

But Yan Qingqiu responded cleverly: "You are not a cook, what are you going to cook?"

Lingxian's face turned pale and red after hearing these words, and she didn't know how to refute it for a moment.

Li Rongsen glanced at her and said, "Don't bother. It's a waste of time."

Lingxian was still not angry. She spoke kindly to Li Rongsen and said, "Mr. Li, I am only doing my duty with you."

"With me, you don't need to fulfill any duties, and you have no duties to fulfill." Li Rongsen rejected her very rudely.

This really pissed Lingxian off. She lowered her eyes to think for a while, then turned around and left.

An Yan didn't say anything, she just buried her head and ate two bites of food. She felt even more upset and said, "I suddenly want to watch the fireworks."

"That's easy. There are several boxes piled in the warehouse. We'll put them there after dinner." Li Rongsen quickly agreed.

"There is a garden in West City. Have you been there?" An Yan asked.

"Are you talking about the big garden in the east?" Li Rongsen asked. He had been there twice. The first time was when the old man asked him to redesign it, and the second time was when he went to inspect it.

Yan Qingqiu said: "I heard that it was specially rebuilt by Li Rongsen."

"Really? I didn't know that. I should go and take a look, so that your kindness won't be wasted." An Yan said with a smile, thinking that if he left in the future, it would be nice if he still left something for people to see.
