Yun Chuwei looked at the medicine in his hand without saying a word.
Although this medicine isn't very effective, you still have to drink it.
Otherwise, I'd have to explain a lot more.
Furthermore, the issue of backlash cannot be explained clearly in a short time.
Seeing her silence, Xie Xuan assumed she was afraid to take the medicine.
He put the medicine aside and said, "Go wash up and eat something first. I've sent them to get some candied fruit. You can take the medicine when the candied fruit arrives!"
Yun Chuwei said earnestly, "Actually, I'm not afraid of hardship, and I don't need candied fruit to take medicine."
Xie Xuan assumed she was just being modest and handed her the water for washing up, saying, "Hmm, you're the least afraid of hardship! That's great!"
Although Xie Xuan said this, he clearly did not believe it.
Yun Chu pursed her lips, too lazy to explain, and began to wash up.
Xie Xuan sat to the side, watching her wash up and eat, and asked, "Don't you know the divine physician Zhong Que? Why don't you ask him to take a look at your condition? You keep vomiting blood..."
Xie Xuan's face was full of worry as she spoke.
Yun Chu smiled and said, "He checked it and said it's fine!"
Xie Xuan frowned: "After all this, how can you be alright?"
Yun Chu lowered her head slightly. She didn't tell Xie Xuan that what she meant by "it's okay" was that it didn't matter whether she used the medicine or not.
When it's time to die, you will die!
Xie Xuan looked at Yun Chuwei, and seeing that she didn't speak, he continued to ask, "Did the divine doctor say why you keep vomiting blood?"
"This... I know it myself!" Yun Chuwei raised her eyes to look at Xie Xuan and smiled reassuringly.
Xie Xuan was somewhat puzzled.
Yun Chuwei continued, "For example, the reason I vomited blood this time is because when I met Yue He, he said that the Yue family would suffer a disaster! The kind that would bring misfortune to the entire family!"
Xie Xuan looked at Yun Chuwei, his confusion deepening.
Yun Chu lowered her head slightly, looking at the contents of her rice bowl, and said, "A cultivator should not speak such words lightly. Words become law; once spoken, they involve cause and effect. If things truly go as you say, there will be a backlash!"
Xie Xuan frowned: "So, your condition is a backlash? If Yue He and the others hadn't died, would you have recovered?"
Although he found Yun Chuwei's words somewhat unbelievable, he still felt that he could trust her.
Yun Chuwei shook her head slightly: "I've already suffered the backlash, so no matter what changes happen afterward, it won't make any difference. Besides, this isn't the main reason I suffered the backlash."
Xie Xuan frowned as he recalled how Yun Chuwei looked when they first met.
At that time, although she was still quite young, she was exceptionally beautiful. Her complexion was fair with a rosy glow, without a trace of illness.
It is completely different from what it is now.
Is it the backlash that makes her different now than before?
Xie Xuan asked, "What happened that caused you to suffer such a severe backlash?"
Yun Chuwei spoke up, "Because I had nothing better to do, I divined the fate of the nation, and I received some bad results!"
"So, you suffered the backlash?"
Yun Chuwei nodded: "Yes!"
Xie Xuan stopped speaking.
He wanted to ask Yun Chuwei what the divination meant about the nation's fate, but he was afraid that saying these things would cause Yun Chuwei to suffer even more severe backlash.
Just then, a knock on the door interrupted their conversation; it was a guard bringing in the candied fruit.
The guard placed the candied fruit on the table and said, "It seems something has happened to the Yun family!"
Yun Chuwei glanced sideways at the guard: "What is it?"
The guard said, "It seems Lord Yun intends to marry his mistress! However, Madam Yun seems to disagree. Nevertheless, Lord Yun brought his mistress home directly! There's a commotion at the manor right now!"
Yun Chuwei's lips twitched. She hadn't expected Yun Xian to cause such a scene.
She put down her chopsticks and prepared to stand up and leave.
Xie Xuan quickly grabbed Yun Chuwei's hand and said, "Don't rush, finish your medicine first, and I'll take you home!"
Upon hearing this, Yun Chuwei picked up the bowl of medicine and drank it all in one gulp.
Ignoring the candied fruit, he said to Xie Xuan, "Let's go!"
Xie Xuan stared at Yun Chuwei for a moment, feeling a pang of sadness in his heart.
He knew Yun Chuwei disliked bitterness, and he also knew she needed candied fruit to drink her medicine. But now, for her family's sake, she actually drank the entire bowl of bitter medicine in one go.
This shows how important her family is to her.
And what about him? What is his place in her heart?
Xie Xuan was still thinking when he saw Yun Chuwei start walking out.
He took the bowl of candied fruit and caught up with Yun Chuwei.
After getting into the carriage, he handed the bowl to Yun Chuwei and said, "That medicine is too bitter. You should eat some candied fruit instead!"
Yun Chuwei was a little confused. She didn't quite understand why Xie Xuan still cared about these candied fruits.
Not wanting to disappoint Xie Xuan's kindness, she finally took a piece of candied fruit and put it in her mouth.
"It's very sweet!" she said with a smile.
She suddenly realized that sometimes eating something sweet isn't so bad; at least it makes her happy!
Xie Xuan looked at her smiling face and smiled back.

Yun Chuwei returned to the outside of the Marquis's residence and said to Xie Xuan, "You go back! I'll go in alone!"
Xie Xuan asked with some concern, "Are you really alright?"
Yun Chuwei nodded: "It's alright!"
Xie Xuan knew that it was not appropriate for him to get involved in the affairs of the Marquis's residence, so he left after confirming that Yun Chuwei was indeed alright.
Yun Chuwei returned too late; He Ning had already chased her away.
Yun Chuwei originally thought that the matter was over.
Unexpectedly, a few days later, Yun Xian returned with his men.
Yun Chuwei was also outside at the time, and rushed home upon receiving the news.
-
As soon as Yun Chuwei entered the Marquis's residence, she saw Yun Mo.
Yunmo approached Yun Chuwei with a fawning smile on his face: "Little sister, you're back?"
Yun Chuwei merely glanced at Yun Mo without saying a word.
Yunmo gritted his teeth slightly, then said, "Sister, I know I was wrong! I didn't consider things from your and Mother's perspectives before, so I did a lot of stupid things. Can you forgive me just this once?"
Yun Chuwei said indifferently, "I can't forgive you! Could you please leave?"
Yunmo: ...
Yun Chuwei ignored him and walked straight inside.
She hadn't expected to see Yun Lianhua outside the main hall.
Yunmo had just returned from outside, so he didn't know the specific situation at home.
Yunmo was also shocked that Yun Lianhua had appeared here so openly.
Since His Majesty has agreed to let Yun Lianhua fake her death to close the case, then Yun Lianhua should act as if she were dead and never appear in front of everyone again.
What is Yun Lianhua doing now? Is he trying to bring disaster to the Marquis's mansion, his mother, and his sister again?
"Yun Lianhua, why are you here?" Thinking of this, Yun Mo asked angrily.
