Gu Qinghuai felt his consciousness becoming increasingly blurred, and the scene before him gradually became hazy. Finally, he slowly collapsed.
At that moment, Lin Xihe was frantically running to find a doctor.
The guards at the door saw her open the door and immediately ran over alertly.
However, Lin Xihe was running too fast and, without thinking, fell heavily onto the snow with a "thud".
"Miss Lin!" The guards rushed over, only to find Lin Xihe lying on the snow, unable to move in pain.
Lin Xihe hissed and cried out, enduring the pain as she said, "Go find Doctor Qin. General Gu has fainted again."
Soon, Lin Xihe was helped back by the guards, and Doctor Qin also rushed over after receiving the news.
Several close guards around Gu Qinghuai waited anxiously to the side, their eyes fixed on Doctor Qin.
Lin Xihe sat far away by the window because she had twisted her ankle.
Seeing that Doctor Qin had stopped what he was doing, a guard immediately asked anxiously, "Doctor Qin, how is it?"
"Wait a moment, I'll administer acupuncture first." After saying that, Doctor Qin picked up a silver needle and skillfully pricked Gu Qinghuai a few times.
A moment later, Gu Qinghuai slowly opened his eyes.
"Doctor Qin, what exactly happened to our general?"
Doctor Qin hesitated for a moment, and the guards became anxious, urging him, "What's wrong? Tell us!"
Gu Qinghuai sat up: "Speak freely."
"I forgot to tell the general earlier that he should... abstain from sex." Doctor Qin's voice was so low it was almost inaudible.
"Alright."
Gu Qinghuai immediately interrupted, a hint of embarrassment appearing on his face.
Doctor Qin, feeling embarrassed, paused for a moment before continuing, "This is due to overwork. Coupled with the previous medicinal baths, your body is weak. Vomiting blood today isn't serious; it just helped expel the stagnant blood. It's best to rest for the next few days and avoid any further activity..."
Upon hearing this, the guards looked at each other, some unconsciously touching their noses, creating an awkward atmosphere.
Gu Qinghuai's gaze fell on Lin Xihe, who was sitting in the distance.
The guard who had been standing guard at the gate, thinking his general was curious about why Lin Xihe had gone so far, quickly explained on her behalf: "General, Miss Lin ran too fast and accidentally twisted her ankle. She is having difficulty moving around right now."
However, Gu Qinghuai interpreted these words differently.
He believed that Lin Xihe was going to run away anyway, but she stayed at the Gu residence because she twisted her ankle while running.
If she hadn't twisted her ankle from that fall, she would have definitely run far away before she could even tell the guards to stop her.
