Be Gentle, My Master
Chapter 2436
Standing up from the chair, Bei Xier desperately endured the discomfort on her body and walked slowly to the Old Madam’s side.
“Grandma, I’ll go to the restroom first.” She leaned over and whispered to her.
With the Old Madam’s approval, Bei Xier turned around, quickly left, and headed towards the hall.
Others may not have noticed, but Baili Xia, who had just walked out of the backyard to bid farewell to the Old Madam, caught the unease on Bei Xier’s face.
Her two beautiful willow-leaf eyebrows furrowed slightly.
“You all sit for a while, I’ll go check.”
Wu Ming glanced in the direction Bei Xier had left and said plainly, “Be careful.”
Baili Xia nodded, immediately followed Bei Xier, and entered the hall.
Bei Xier took a long time in the restroom tidying up before coming out.
Just as she came out, she saw Baili Xia waiting for her outside the door, her face showed even more unease.
“What’s wrong?”
Noticing Bei Xier’s flushed face, and what seemed like tiny red dots, Baili Xia asked.
Looking at her, Bei Xier appeared even more troubled.
Although she roughly guessed the cause, she couldn’t discuss it with outsiders.
She said, “I don’t know what’s happening, my whole body is itching terribly, it’s so uncomfortable.”
Baili Xia’s brows furrowed slightly; she could discern some clues from her face.
“I’m a doctor, do you mind if I take a look?”
Bei Xier was slightly stunned, then nodded immediately.
Though itching terribly, it was inappropriate to go out to see a doctor now.
Recalling that Baili Xia had treated her grandfather, she seemed to have found her savior.
Baili Xia gently pulled her back into the restroom.
“Come, turn around, undo the buttons and let me see.”
Once Bei Xier turned around, Baili Xia lifted her collar and looked inside.
Her originally fair and delicate skin was covered with bright red spots.
Under each spot, there were raised bumps the size of rice grains.
Baili Xia frowned and asked, “Did you eat anything that caused an allergic reaction?”
Bei Xier shook her head, “I don’t have any food allergies.”
She knew well that the problem stemmed from that cup of wine, but she still couldn’t speak of it.
Saying it would lead to bigger conflicts.
Today was the Old Madam’s birthday banquet, she didn’t want to escalate things.
Escalating it would certainly disgrace the Bei Family.
Observing the symptoms on her body, Baili Xia could confirm it was definitely an allergic reaction.
If it wasn’t food allergy, then someone must have poisoned her.
Although this poison wouldn’t be fatal, it would certainly cause embarrassment.
Who could it be that targeted Bei Xier?
Watching the fine sweat seep out from Bei Xier’s forehead and face due to endurance, Baili Xia held her hand: “Come, I’ll take you to let Uncle Fengjin look at it.”
“Uncle Fengjin? I’d rather not.”
With symptoms like these, she didn’t have the courage to let Uncle Fengjin examine her in public.
“Don’t be afraid, Uncle Fengjin’s medical skills are superb. This kind of poison might just need one pill to resolve.”
Listening to Baili Xia’s easygoing words, Bei Xier finally breathed a sigh of relief.
She was really too uncomfortable, the itch was becoming unbearable.
Bei Xier nodded, said no more, stood up, and walked with Baili Xia to the front yard.
Returning to the banquet, many guests in the front yard had already dispersed.
Bei Fengjin remained seated at the table, talking to Wu Ming and Mu Xiaoyao.
The people from the Nan Family had left without notice.
Baili Xia and Bei Xier walked up to Bei Fengjin, Baili Xia’s face was filled with anxiety.
She said, “Uncle Fengjin, Xi’er seems to have a toxic allergy, please take a look at her.”
