Ji Zhuo did not answer, but stepped forward and gently took the handkerchief that Ling Xue was using to wipe Lin Xihe's sweat.
Ling Xue tactfully stepped back. Ji Zhuo's hands trembled slightly as he gently wiped away Lin Xihe's sweat. Looking at Lin Xihe, whose face was as pale as paper, his eyes were filled with heartache and self-blame.
Tao Musheng explained, “Meng Wuyou, the name sounds beautiful, but it is actually extremely vicious. This medicine will make people fall into a coma and have nightmares.
