When he applied the medicine, he was like a controlled piece of wood. He did whatever Su Yingxue told him to do.

However, when Su Yingxue brought the medicine in front of him, his face was expressionless. He did not move or open his mouth.

“Do you want to drink it? If not, I’ll make you drink it!” Su Yingxue, with a worried expression, urged him.

Zi Wei continued to remain silent.

Su Yingxue became so anxious that tears welled up in her eyes.

Seeing this, Zi Wei pointed towards her waist.

Following his gesture, Su Yingxue retrieved a bag of candies from her belt. It was the same candy she had fed him last time.

She bit her lip and chuckled softly, “You’re still thinking about candy, huh?”

The purple hue at the corners of Zi Wei’s eyes deepened, and the radiance it emitted grew colder.

However, his eyes held warmth, especially when Su Yingxue presented the candy.

Su Yingxue picked up the broken candies from the paper bag. All of them were shattered, with not a single intact piece left.

She pursed her lips and negotiated with Zi Wei, “How about you drink the medicine first, and I promise to buy you candy first thing tomorrow morning.” “No!” Zi Wei firmly fixed his gaze on the candy.

Su Yingxue glanced at the sky. It was already past curfew, and all the shops were closed. She wouldn’t be able to buy candy at this hour.

But she couldn’t possibly let him avoid taking his medicine just because there was no candy, right?

Su Yingxue set the broken candies aside and held the medicine, coaxing him gently, “First, drink your medicine. I promise 1’11 get you candy as soon as the sun rises tomorrow.”

As she spoke, Zi Wei had already picked up the half-broken bag of candy and put it into his mouth. Then, he drank the medicine from her hand.

Su Yingxue didn’t know what to say.

But the fact that he was now willing to take his medicine, without her resorting to trickery or needle injections, was a significant change.

However, the wounds on his body, including the one inflicted by Chu Yihan, still made her feel guilty.

Su Yingxue sat by the bedside, organizing the events of tonight in her mind. It was true that she had fallen into Hong Lian’s trap, and Chu Yihan’s appearance probably wasn’t as coincidental as it seemed.

Moreover, Chu Yihan’s words suggested that he had known Zi Wei had been with her all along.

And Zi Wei had been injured throughout.

During the Spring Banquet, she noticed that Mo Qi was also severely injured.

She suddenly asked Zi Wei, “Are the people who have been pursuing you from the Ninth Prince’s Mansion?”

Zi Wei nodded. “Yes.”

Su Yingxue’s heart was instantly flooded with mixed emotions. “Why didn’t you tell me?”

Zi Wei lowered his gaze and, with a hoarse voice, replied, “1 didn’t want to bother you.”

This statement hit Su Yingxue’s heart like a punch. She felt remorseful towards him.

She reached out to poke Zi Wei’s face and gently said, “You must not hide such things from me in the future. I am your master, understand?”

Zi Wei had heard many orders from his master, but they were always cold and domineering.

However, only Su Yingxue gave him orders with such tenderness.

Zi Wei obediently nodded. “I will never hide anything from you in the future. I will faithfully protect you.”

Su Yingxue stayed by Zi Wei’s side throughout the night. She only relaxed when she saw that his wounds weren’t inflamed.

However, she knew that Zi Wei wasn’t one to take proper care of himself. She applied a sleeping draught to the silver needles and administered a few injections to ensure he slept soundly. She then instructed Manager Qi to feed him medicine and meals regularly.

This was the only way she could prevent him from moving too much and disturbing his wounds.

After a night of hard work, Manager Qi noticed that Su Yingxue looked exhausted and had the lingering scent of blood on her. He didn’t dare to inquire about what had happened but expressed concern, “Miss, how about taking a break from your duties as a doctor today? Rest for the day..”
