"Ahem..."
Qin Lian woke up in a daze, feeling cold and hot all over her body.
"Are you OK?"
Before she could understand the situation in front of her, a worried face approached her.
"...Is it you?" Qin Lian quickly recognized this person as Liu Yuan. Thinking of Mrs. Liu's embarrassment just now, she became angry and said, "You guys, cough!"
"Okay, don't say anything yet. The doctor said you have a cold in your body." Liu Yuan helped her get the quilt. It seemed that her face was pale and there was distress in her eyes, "It must be my mother who is giving you a hard time."
Qin Lian didn't speak, just stared at him angrily.
If it weren't for this person, Mrs. Liu wouldn't have gone to great lengths to target her, and she still wanted her life just now!
Seeing Qin Lian's eyes, Liu Yuan's expression dimmed a little, "You should have a good rest first. I have sent someone to prepare the medicine."
"You...I want to go back."
Qin Lian struggled to get up, and the words coming out of her lips were extremely hoarse.
"Drink the medicine first and then go back!" Liu Yuan pressed her down, "The doctor told you that you had wind and cold in your body. What if you didn't take care of the root cause of the disease?"
Hearing what he said, Qin Lian could only lie back and turned over not wanting to talk to him.
Liu Yuan also knew that Qin Lian was really angry, so he sat by the bed without saying a word. After the servants boiled the medicine, he fed Qin Lian to drink it. Just as he was about to persuade her to stay and rest, the person on the bed became drowsy. fell asleep.
Liu Yuan touched her forehead, and the place where he touched was hot, and his face suddenly turned ugly.
"Master, my cousin is here."
A message from a servant came from outside.
"Let her go back!"
Liu Yuan's deep voice was filled with anger.
"I understand, Master."
The servant hurriedly responded, and the silence outside quickly returned.
Liu Yuan sat on the edge of the bed and watched, gently brushing away the broken hair on Qin Lian's forehead with his hand. His eyes fell on her pale face, and his eyes gradually deepened.
Qin Lian's appearance belonged to Xiaojiabiyu, and she was ranked among the many ladies from aristocratic families he had seen. But only in Qin Lian, he saw the little white rabbit he had raised when he was a child.
He caught that rabbit from a rabbit nest on the mountain. It was the only rabbit at that time, and there were some blood stains nearby. The entourage who followed him to the mountain for hunting said that there were weasels nearby, and the other rabbits might have been eaten by weasels. If no one takes care of the rabbit in his hand, he may not survive.
Liu Yuan decided to take the rabbit back at that time.
He kept the rabbit in his room and looked after it day after day. When the rabbit grows up, he will only recognize him. If others touch it, the rabbit will keep struggling, and it will only be well-behaved in his hands.
Liu Yuan felt that this rabbit belonged to him.
But one day when he came back from school, he found that the rabbit that had been nesting on his cup was missing. He anxiously led his servants to search around the house, and finally saw it in the kitchen, skinned and about to be fried. Boiled rabbit.
He asked frantically, but his mother told him that this was the punishment for his disobedience.
He made a big fuss, smashed many things in the house, and was punished by his father to kneel in the ancestral hall. After thinking about it all night in the ancestral hall, he realized that what his mother had said about him being disobedient was just that he had concealed the fact that he had secretly eaten snacks with a classmate in school after class.
It was because of this incident that his mother thought that he wanted to escape from her control, so she skinned the rabbit that he had worked hard to raise for a year and wanted to make a stew for him to drink.
His mother did this just to let him know that this was the result of disobedience.
How ridiculous!
Recalling his childhood, Liu Yuan's face turned as dark as ink. If he comes too late today, will his mother make Qin Lian stand in the cold wind all day?
Liu Yuan looked at the woman on the bed, his eyes gradually darkened.
…
"Miss Song, please go back. The young master said he won't see any guests."
"Why not? Is it because there is someone in Master Cousin's room?"
Ronger asked angrily.
"This..." The servant hesitated, not daring to look at Song Xiao's face because he felt a chill on his back.
They were just servants and didn't dare to say anything else.
"Miss!"
Seeing his appearance, Ronger probably thought that what the servant came to report just now was true!
Song Xiao has lived in the Liu family for a long time, and naturally has his own people.
Liu Yuan rushed over to take Qin Lian away, and someone soon came to inform her.
She really didn't expect that Qin Lian would be so courageous, and she would already show off her power in front of Mrs. Liu.
She didn't plan to come over originally, but her servants said that there were many ladies from aristocratic families present at the time. Liu Yuan's move made Mrs. Liu very angry. She had already gone back to her room to rest, and she probably didn't have time to find Qin Lian. .
The servant told her again that Liu Yuan carried Qin Lian back to his room. Hearing this, Song Xiao couldn't sit still at all.
But the servant in front of her didn't let her in. She heard Liu Yuan's scolding in the room just now.
She has known Liu Yuan for such a long time, and she has never seen him care so much about someone, yet he openly went against Mrs. Liu!
Thinking of this, Song Xiao endured the emotions in her heart, stepped forward and put on a gentle look, and said, "I have something to ask my cousin, please go and pass it on to me again, and then say that I am in an emergency."
"Miss Song, the young master really doesn't have time, please don't embarrass me."
"you--"
Ronger wanted to get angry, but Song Xiao pulled her and said with a smile, "In that case, I'll go back first."
"Okay, okay! Miss Song, please go slowly."
Seeing that she was willing to leave, the servant breathed a sigh of relief and sent her to the door.
Ronger said angrily, "Miss, are we going back like this? That woman is in my cousin's room! What a bitch. This happened last time, and she still dares to come today!"
"Rong'er, don't talk nonsense, my cousin will not fall in love with such a woman." Song Xiao was angry, but her eyes were slightly red.
Rong'er felt extremely distressed, "Miss, don't do this!" She supported Song Xiao and scolded, "It's that woman who is shameless and seduces Young Master Biao all day long! Young Master Biao has never seen such a coquettish fox, and he is just trying to figure it out. Lehe, how can a woman like that be inferior to a young lady?"
"But..." Song Xiao was still sad, with tears in her eyes.
"Miss, don't give up! The winter banquet is coming soon. Mr. Liu and the old lady will be there then. They will definitely not tolerate such a woman!"
Song Xiao stopped talking, her fair little face full of sadness, "Rong'er, stop talking. If my cousin likes it, neither my uncle nor the old lady will object."
"How is that possible! Miss, Mr. Liu and the old lady just don't know now. If they knew, they wouldn't let this woman do anything wrong!"
Song Xiao sighed and stopped talking.
