Chapter 2674: Chapter 2675: Return to Tianyun (241)

Su Yuxin nodded, but didn’t say anything more.

After Su Xing and Taoming Ye both left Tao Mingqing’s courtyard, Su Yuxin was still reluctant to leave.

Even when the sun had set and it was completely dark, Su Yuxin still refused to leave.

It wasn’t until late at night, when she saw Tao Mingqing’s forehead was no longer burning, that Su Yuxin was completely relieved and left.

Just after Su Yuxin left, Tao Mingqing awoke to find the room lit with lamps, and Feng Tong watching over him by the bed, which left him momentarily confused. He asked, "What happened to me?"

His head still ached and felt dizzy. He unconsciously touched his head.

Feng Tong quickly said, "Master, you forgot. Earlier today, you were startled by the Princess and fell into the pond, then developed a high fever. The fever just subsided not long ago, and the Princess also just left not long ago. By the way, that’s a gift from the Princess for you, saying that since you passed the Scholar examination, she promised you a gift."

Tao Mingqing remembered, and following Feng Tong’s finger, looked towards the table. Sure enough, there were several small boxes which should be the gifts from Su Yuxin.

"What are they?" he asked softly.

Feng Tong said, "I didn’t dare to look."

Tao Mingqing then said, "Bring them over, open them, and let me see."

"Yes, Master." Feng Tong hurriedly brought over the small boxes, opened them one by one: fine brushes, fine ink, fine paper, and an exceptionally fine inkstone that he had never seen before.

After viewing them, Tao Mingqing nodded and said, "Put them away for me."

"Yes, Master." Feng Tong promptly put away the items in the cabinet where Tao Mingqing usually kept his valuables.

Once the items were stored, Feng Tong came over again and said to Tao Mingqing, "The Princess said she would come to see you again tomorrow." He paused, "Master, the Princess is very concerned about you, she stayed by your side until your fever subsided before returning to the palace."

Tao Mingqing couldn’t help but think about Su Yuxin kissing him during the day, involuntarily revealing a look of desolation.

Although he didn’t understand why saving him had to be mouth-to-mouth, as long as she said it was to save him, then it was to save him.

But as if nothing happened...

Honestly, in his heart, he couldn’t pretend that nothing had happened. His beloved kissed him, how could he act like nothing happened?

He originally liked her, and now he’s completely fallen.

But she, she doesn’t want him to be responsible...

It’s because he’s not worthy of her, right.

Thinking this way, Tao Mingqing’s eyes looked even more forlorn.

Feng Tong noticed and pursed his lips, hesitated for a long time, but still boldly said, "Master, the Princess had a particularly bad temper today, scolding a lot, but I could hear that the things she scolded about were actually out of concern for you, angry about how you fell into the pond and got sick."

Tao Mingqing sighed, "My body is indeed too weak."

Feng Tong immediately comforted him, "The eldest master was poisoned for so many years, and his health was regulated so well now. Master, you have never been poisoned, so surely you can also regulate your health very well. Master, you can ask the eldest master for the recipe for regulating the body, take the medicine, and you should get much better."

Tao Mingqing gave a bitter smile and said, "Elder brother has the Millennium Ginseng for his recovery, I heard it was snatched by Qing Royal Uncle from the Emperor and a Prince. Even if I have the recipe, it’s useless. In the future, it’s better to learn a few tricks from the Protector to make my body a bit better than it is now."
