Chapter 236: The General is Sick, He Just Needs a Good Beating (32)
Translator: asassin
The old doctor’s beard shakes out of anger. However, he doesn’t voice a disagreement and ends up staying in the manor.
Fortunately, the medicine works. During the night, Ah Zhao’s fever is under control, which is a big relief for everyone in the manor, Lv Zhu in particular, who thanks god for that miracle.
As Ah Zhao’s maid, she will be doomed if anything bad happens to Ah Zhao.
When dawn comes, Ah Zhao’s fever is brought down and she wakes up.
Huo Jun, who has been by her side all this time, finally relaxes a bit.
“Huo Jun?” As soon as she opens her eyes, she sees a familiar figure faintly.
Huo Jun sounds a bit hoarse: “You are awake? How do you feel?”
A bit bad.
My throat is dry, I feel ache all over and a bit itchy on the skin.
But she doesn’t say that out loud and just calls him: “You are not mad of me anymore?”
His mouth draws in a hard line as he looks at her in the dim light.
She’s always like this, missing the point.
Or is it her point is different from everyone else’s?
She is who she is.
How can he possibly be angry at her?
He bends down as if having given up on figuring that out and puts his cheek against hers.
“I’m not.”
At that, Ah Zhao finally sets her mind at ease.
Huo Jun won’t lie to her. If he says he’s not angry, then he’s not.
Since she has nothing to worry about now, she starts to act like a pampered kid.
“Lier, you didn’t speak to me for so long.” She complains softly.
Good-tempered, Huo Jun holds her hand as he says: “I was busy… Well, sorry, that was my bad. I won’t do that anymore.”
Ah Zhao smiles happily. After that, she mutters: “I’m thirsty…”
Lights turn up at several places in the manor.
Huo Jun gives Ah Zhao some warm water himself and asks someone to drag the poor old doctor out of his cozy bed to give Ah Zhao an examination. After he is sure that nothing is wrong with her, he asks Lv Zhu to bring some porridge and food the kitchen has prepared.
Because Ah Zhao has always been weak, plus she has just recovered from a serious illness, she feels sleepy soon after she has some food.
Huo Jun sits by her side as he watches her fall asleep before he stands up, his expression turning cold again, his tenderness when he was looking at Ah Zhao gone.
He goes directly to the Sixth Lady’s yard.
Neither Huo Xian Xian nor the Sixth Lady had any sleep for the night.
When Huo Xian Xian returned, she told her mother about Ah Zhao’s illness. The Sixth Lady, after hearing it, sighed. “I shouldn’t have changed my mind…”
Huo Xian Xian was confused. “Mother, what are you talking about?”
The Sixth Lady turned gentle, which was extremely rare. She stroked her daughter’s hair and said: “Nothing. I want to stay by myself for a while. Go to bed.”
When Huo Jun arrives at the Sixth Lady’s yard, she is making tea in the yard by herself.
“Good morning, General.” She isn’t surprised to see Huo Jun at all.
Huo Jun doesn’t speak.
The Sixth Lady doesn’t mind that. She makes two cups of tea and gestures at him: “Please have a seat.”
Huo Jun turns to her, as if it is the first time that he actually notices this lady who has kept a low profile in the manor.
He doesn’t touch the tea. “I don’t dare to drink your tea, Sixth Lady.”
She smiles, not taking any offense and takes a sip herself.
“You know why I’m here.” Says Huo Jun.
The Sixth Lady puts down the teacup and says softly: “What if I say I don’t?”
