Chapter 199 Leaving without saying goodbye
Li Shuchen quickly patted Miss Yun's arm with his other, bloodless hand.
"Miss Yun, Miss Yun, don't sleep yet, I've already sent someone to fetch the doctor."
Miss Yun kept her eyes closed and didn't respond at all.
Li Shuchen panicked even more upon seeing this. She knew that miscarriage was extremely dangerous for women in ancient times, and Miss Yun was showing no signs of pregnancy. Was she going to die?
She was so anxious she cried, tightly holding Miss Yun's hand.
"Miss Yun, Miss Yun, don't fall asleep! Hold on a little longer, Linglong is at the inn and will be here soon, very soon!"
Grape was panting heavily.
"Miss, Linglong is here."
Upon hearing this, Li Shuchen hurriedly stepped aside but tripped over the hem of her skirt, fortunately being caught by Gu Ziying in time.
"Quick, let Miss Yun take a look."
Linglong put the medicine box away and took Miss Yun's pulse.
"Miss, Miss Yun has suffered a miscarriage due to extreme emotional distress, and her body is too weak to speak, causing her to fall into a coma. She needs ginseng to revive her; the older the better."
Li Shuchen hurriedly replied
"Ginseng, yes! Grape, quickly go back to my room and get a century-old ginseng."
"Hey"
Grape brought ginseng
Linglong quickly took the slice, cut it, and put it into Miss Yun's mouth. Then she looked at everyone and said...
"Miss, Princess Changning, Lady Gu, please wait outside."
Li Shuchen gripped Linglong's hand tightly, his voice trembling as he instructed her.
"Linglong, please revive Miss Yun! Please revive Miss Yun!"
Linglong nodded and closed the door.
Everyone retreated to the Three Treasures Hall
Li Shuchen stood there dumbfounded, trembling all over.
Gu Ziying felt a pang of heartache and pulled Li Shuchen to wash her hands. The warm water jolted her back to reality, and she looked at Gu Ziying's gentle face and cried.
"Ziying, it's all my fault. It's all my fault. Miss Yun could have had a healthy pregnancy and delivery."
Gu Ziying said softly upon hearing this.
"Shu Chen, don't talk nonsense. She must want an answer herself, which is why she went to Shen Fenghuang. It has nothing to do with Shu Chen, it's not Shu Chen's fault. Miss Yun will be alright, don't worry."
Princess Changning said angrily
"The one in the wrong is Shen Fenghuang. He's heartless, ruthless, and only cares about profit. He deceived Miss Yun; he's not even human. I'll have someone beat him up."
Gu Ziying quickly called a halt
"Don't go, Changning. Be careful not to cause any unforeseen complications. That would be best."
The three sat quietly together, waiting for Linglong's treatment to end.
Yoshihisa
Linglong arrived at the Three Treasures Hall exhausted.
"Miss, Miss Yun is alright now."
Upon hearing this, Li Shuchen stood up abruptly, a hint of pleasure in his voice.
"She's alright, she's alright, thank you so much, Linglong."
After saying that, he went to check on Miss Yun. The room still smelled strongly of blood. Miss Yun was wearing a white undergarment and was lying weakly on the bed.
"Miss Yun, you're awake. How are you feeling?"
Miss Yun looked at Li Shuchen and said
“A bit cold”
"Cold? Bring me some grapes and a charcoal brazier. Bring the charcoal brazier from my room for Miss Yun to use."
"Yes, miss"
Li Shuchen tucked the blanket around Miss Yun and asked...
"Are there any other discomforts?"
Miss Yun shook her head
Li Shuchen lowered her head and apologized.
"It's all my fault, I'm sorry."
Miss Yun replied with a light smile.
“It’s not Miss Li’s fault. Linglong has already told me the reason. Perhaps this child also knew that he shouldn’t have come into this world, so he left on his own. I should also thank Miss Li for giving me the century-old ginseng. It must have cost a lot of money. How much do you want? I’ll give you.”
Li Shuchen shook his head, his eyes red.
"I don't want money, I don't want money, I just want you to live well, to live well."
Miss Yun glanced at Princess Changning and Gu Ziying; their eyes were both slightly red, and they were looking at her with concern. She suddenly felt that she wasn't doing so badly after all, that so many people still cared about her, and happily joked.
"I'm alright, Miss Li. Don't be sad, or Princess Changning and Lady Gu will laugh at you."
The joke eased the tension somewhat.
Princess Changning spoke.
"Miss Ruoyun, please feel free to ask if you need anything. I, Changning, will do everything I can to find it for you."
"Thank you, Princess Changning, but I don't want anything."
Gu Ziying looked at Miss Yun's defeated face and said
"Miss Yun has just woken up and needs to rest. Let's not disturb her and go out first."
Li Shuchen tucked the blanket around Miss Yun again.
"Then we'll be leaving. If you need anything, just have someone call me."
"Um"
……
Feeling truly guilty, Li Shuchen went to Miss Yun's room every day to take care of her.
Feeding her medicine and meals were just basic tasks; she did everything related to Miss Yun.
Princess Changning and Lady Gu also came to visit twice, bringing gifts with them.
Seeing that Miss Yun's complexion was gradually improving, Li Shuchen finally felt relieved.
Miss Yun smiled and looked at Li Shuchen, pleading.
"I'm feeling much better now. The sun is shining so brightly today, and it's warm inside. I can get out of bed and walk around now."
Li Shuchen thought for a moment. Linglong said that Miss Yun would be able to get out of bed and walk around in five days. Today is the eighth day, so it should be possible.
"Alright then, wait while I get you your clothes."
Miss Yun replied obediently
"it is good"
Li Shuchen helped Miss Yun put on her clothes and then helped her slowly walk to the window.
Miss Yun carefully sat down on the cushioned stool, basking in the sunshine.
"That's wonderful, Miss Li, thank you so much for these past few days."
As Li Shuchen moved the charcoal brazier next to Miss Yun, he said...
"No need to thank me, it's all what I should do. What would you like for lunch?"
"Roast duck, golden fried chicken wings, hot and sour potato noodles, red date warming milk tea..."
Miss Yun listed a whole string of dishes.
Li Shuchen fell silent upon hearing this. These things were oily and spicy, which was not good for Miss Yun's recovery, so he had never let her eat them. Could it be that she was craving them?
"You really want to eat it?"
Miss Yun nodded and said earnestly
"I want to eat it, I really want to, I especially want to."
"Although you can't eat too much oily food, a little bit should be fine. I'll prepare a little of everything for you to try. I'll also serve you some light and nutritious dishes, okay?"
"it is good"
……
The next morning, Li Shuchen got up early and brought breakfast to knock on Miss Yun's door.
"Miss Yun, Miss Yun, are you up? I've come to bring you breakfast."
No one responded; all was silent.
Li Shuchen was very puzzled. Miss Yun usually got up at this time, so what was wrong with her today? He knocked on the door again and called out.
"Miss Yun, Miss Yun"
Still no response
Li Shuchen pushed hard, and the door opened. The room was empty; there was no one there.
She hurried inside, looked around, and saw that the bed was neatly made, as if no one had slept there. The room had also been tidied up and was clean and tidy, with nothing belonging to Miss Yun.
On the eight-immortal table, there was only a letter and a purse.
Li Shuchen put down his breakfast and quickly opened the letter to read it.
"I hope you are well, Miss Li. I'm so sorry to have bothered you so much these past few days. Thank you for your thoughtful care, which has helped me recover so quickly."
I am deeply grateful for all the money you've given me for food, clothing, and medicine. I have nothing left to give you except this jade pendant, which I've worn since childhood. I know it can't do much, but it's my favorite thing, and I'm giving it to you as a special gift.
Forgive me for leaving without saying goodbye, don't worry about me.
