CHAPTER 264 (2): PERSONALLY TESTING THE MEDICINE




The seconds slowly slipped by, and Yu Xiao became nervous . He had some medical knowledge, and had invented several types of odd drugs over the years . However, even he couldn’t tell the difference between good and bad Spirit Grass after studying it for so long . One can only find out by taking a sip of the medicine .

If Prince Hao dies, the responsibility will fall to me . Yu Xiao was even more nervous now, his eyes full of worry .

“Why are you so nervous when this Prince isn’t?” Pei Qianhao laughed . His laughter had a trace of playfulness .

“I was the one who collected the Spirit Grass . Seeing as how this will affect two lives, I don’t see how I can not be nervous . ”

“Didn’t you want to follow this Prince’s maidservant? If she can make it through this ordeal, this Prince will allow you to follow her . However, she is this Prince’s maidservant . Although you are just a young man, you still cannot appear next to her . ”





Yu Xiao was startled after hearing this . Now is not the time to discuss such a thing! But I understand what Prince Hao means . I can follow her, but I must do so from behind the scenes . After so many years, even Guan Xiang can’t see through me, but Miss can! We can only hope for the best now .

Pei Qianhao lowered his head and looked at Su Xi-er, his hand caressing her pink ears . They feel warm and soft . Not bad . After that, he continued to caress her chin and neck, completely ignoring the situation at hand .

He just caressed her slowly and massaged her acupoints at the same time, making it so that she would feel better, even if she was asleep .

When the old physician entered the room again with the bowl of medicine, 15 minutes was up . Pei Qianhao didn’t have any adverse reactions, meaning that the Spirit Grass is fine!

Yu Xiao heaved a sigh of relief . With all the tension leaving his body, he suddenly realised that his wounds were hurting a lot . Since it seemed that things would be fine, he quickly left the room to retrieve more herbs for his cuts .

Pei Qianhao held Su Xi-er up with one hand and held the bowl of medicine with the other . She is currently asleep and can’t drink the medicine herself . There is only one way .

A glint flickered across Pei Qianhao’s eyes . The corner of his mouth raised slightly, as if he had just gained some advantage .

He lowered his head and took a sip of the medicine, holding it in his mouth before bringing his lips against hers and prying her mouth open . Being unconscious, Su Xi-er couldn’t stop Pei Qianhao from doing as he pleased . Hence, besides feeding her the medicine, he also took the chance to suck on her small tongue each time he gave her another mouthful .

Pei Qianhao fed the entire bowl of medicine to Su Xi-er using the same method . By the time the bowl was empty, Su Xi-er’s face had returned to its normal colour, and her breathing had also calmed down by a great extent .


The old physician walked up to check her pulse and nodded . “Miss will wake up in at most two hours . She needs to take care of her body, but after three days, the sword injury on her arm will form a scab . ”





Pei Qianhao nodded and waved his hand . “Go and prepare a bowl of Red Date Soup[1] . She has lost a lot of blood and needs something to help her recover . ”

“Prince Hao, let’s make some food for you . You still haven’t eaten anything until now . ”

“No need, this Prince isn’t hungry . ”

The old physician could tell from Pei Qianhao’s tone that the latter’s decision wouldn’t change . As a result, he bowed and took the empty bowl before leaving the room .

Pei Qianhao carefully put Su Xi-er down on the bed and covered her with the quilt before his hand started to move .

There wasn’t anyone else around, and Su Xi-er’s life was safe . His heart was finally able to relax, and his hands slowly drifted from her neck into the quilt .

After a while, Pei Qianhao’s hand accidentally drifted over the soft places on her body . He hesitated for a moment before continuing and reaching a hand towards her waist . His dark eyes stared at her pink lips . Having just been fed medicine by Pei Qianhao, her lips were still a bright red with some traces of medicine on them . Under the glow of the candlelight, she looked especially charming .

The colour on Su Xi-er’s face was slowly improving as her breathing grew calmer; even her previously motionless body had begun to fidget .

“You are becoming mischievous right after recovering . ” Pei Qianhao chided softly before leaning back against the bedpost, his hand already gently caressing her waist .
