Chapter 619: Zi Sai: A Sleepless Night

In the early morning, Zisai stood up from the collapse with exhaustion; after a night of tossing, he never slept at all.

Just at this moment, Xiaopeng came from outside the room.

"Sir! I have retrieved the medicine, do you want to fry it now?" Xiaopeng asked softly, for fear of disturbing Zi Tong, who was still sleeping.

Zi Sai looked back at Zi Tong, who showed no sign of waking up, and said, "Wait until she wakes up before frying it to prevent the medicine from getting cold!"

"Yes!" Xiaopeng responded; he stood quietly on one side, waiting with Zisai for Zitong to wake up.

About half an hour later, with a cry, Zi Tong slowly opened her eyelids; a night's sleep did not restore her complexion.

"Princess Zitong! Are you finally awake?!" Seeing this, Xiaopeng couldn't hide his joy in his voice.

Zi Tong blinked his sore eyes slightly, the scenes from last night were revolving in his mind; he couldn't help but a hint of panic appeared in his eyes again.

Seeing this, Zisai sent Xiaopeng: "Let's boil the medicine first!"

Not noticing anything strange about Zi Tong, Xiao Peng responded: "I'm going to cook the medicine right now!" After saying that, he quickly walked out of the wing.

Zisai walked to the bedside: "The matter is over, don't think about it anymore!"

Zi Tong raised his eyes and looked at Zi Sai standing above him; the corners of his lips moved and he slowly closed his eyes.

Zi Sai said nothing and stared at her quietly.

After a long time, Zi Tong opened his eyelids again, the fear in his eyes was well hidden; he put his arms on the bed and slowly sat up.

Zi Sai picked up the pillow at the right time and put it on her head.

Zi Tong leaned against the cliff, his voice slightly hoarse: "When will we set off?"

"I'll stay here for now, and we'll talk about everything tomorrow!" Zisai replied directly without thinking.

Hearing this, Zi Tong knew clearly that it was because of him that he chose to delay his trip: "I'm sorry..."

"You don't need to say sorry, I'm the one who should say sorry!" Zisai said; subconsciously, she didn't want to and let her take all the blame on herself: "If I didn't insist on leaving yesterday, you wouldn't have been too frightened.

Coma; as for the delayed schedule, I will slowly make up for it after you recover!"

Zi Tong curled up his legs, wrapped his arms around his knees, and rested his chin on his knees; a trace of sadness appeared in his eyes: "I can't blame you, even if you are here, I may not be able to hold on!" Coma is only a matter of time.

That’s it!

What Zi Tong said made Zi Sai even more confused: "I thought at first that you were simply afraid of thunder, but now it seems it's not that simple..." Zi Sai stared at Zi Tong, whose eyelids were slightly drooped: "... can you tell me,

What’s the reason?”

Zi Tong shook his head gently: "I don't want to say it!"

Zi Tong doesn't want to mention that memory of despair anymore.

Zisai had no intention of testing her, and since she was unwilling to tell, he did not continue to ask.

Zi Tong slowly raised his cheek: "Were you scared last night?"

"Yes!" Zi Sai said bluntly without hiding anything.

A self-deprecating smile appeared on Zi Tong's lips: "Did you feel that I looked like a madman at that time?"

"No!" At that time, you were just full of despair.

Zi Tong lowered his head again: "Father, Mommy was so frightened when she saw me losing my composure for the first time. Later, my father said that when I lost my composure, I looked like a madman!"

"No!" Although Zisai's expression was still cold, there was a human touch that rarely appears in his tone: "I think the emperor is just joking with you!"

Surprise flashed in Zi Tong's eyes: "Don't you always hate me? Why do you comfort me everywhere today?"

"..." Zi Sai didn't know why he did this; he just subconsciously wanted to comfort her and didn't want to see her eyes full of despair last night again.

"Anyway, thank you for being willing to stay with me!" Although I was a little confused at the time, I could still feel his breath.

"..." Zisai stared at Zitong quietly, feeling that she was very different between today and before.

Zi Tong felt a little uncomfortable being stared at: "Why do you keep looking at me? What did I say wrong?"

"No!" Zi Sai opened his lips lightly and said what he was thinking: "I just feel that you seem to have grown up suddenly!"

"You mean, I used to be childish?!" Zi Tong slightly pursed her lips, expressing her dissatisfaction.

"Don't you think so?" Zisai asked without replying.

"of course not!"

Zisai walked to the table and sat down, narrating in a calm tone: "If you were not naive, would you hold a grudge against me for doing business? If you were not naive, would you stay in my mansion and refuse to leave because of this?"

If you weren't naive, would you come to me every day to cause trouble? If you weren't naive, would you follow me all the way?"

"..." Zi Tong.

By the way, when did his eloquence become so good?

Seeing that she was speechless, Zisai kept silent and did not give any more examples.

After a long time, Zi Tong finally found his voice: "You are really different today!"

"Really?" Zi Sai curled his lips without comment.

Zi Tong nodded heavily: "You usually have a cold face, which always makes people feel distant and indifferent; but today, although you still have no smile, you give people a very friendly feeling!"

"..." Zi Sai.

"Princess Zitong! Your medicine!" As the voice came, Xiaopeng quickly appeared in their sight.

Smelling the strong medicinal smell in the air, Zitong subconsciously wrinkled the tip of his nose: "It smells so bad! I don't want to drink it!"

"Princess Zitong! How is that possible?" Xiaopeng placed the hot medicine bowl on the table and spoke again with a serious expression: "Only by drinking the medicine can you get better quickly!"

"Xiaopeng is right! Good medicine tastes bitter and is good for the disease. You should drink it even if you don't want to!"

"No!" Zi Tong's nose wrinkled deeper and he decided to protest to the end.

"Sir! This..." Xiaopeng looked embarrassed and looked at Zisai.

Zisai picked up the medicine bowl and stood up: "Leave it to me!"

"Yes!" Xiaopeng was so happy that he became a hands-off shopkeeper.

Zisai walked to the edge of the cave and sat down, gently stirring the black liquid in the bowl with a spoon: "Drink up, I'll ask Xiaopeng to buy you some sweet dates!"

"That's right! How could I forget this?" Xiaopeng patted his head in annoyance: "Princess Zitong! Eat some sweet dates, and the medicine will not be so bitter! You drink the medicine first, and I will buy it for you now.

Bring back some sweet dates!" He finished his words and disappeared in front of the two of them.

Looking at the dark liquid in the bowl and the pungent smell, Zi Tong begged for mercy with a bitter face: "Can you not drink it?"

"What do you think?" Zisai scooped up a spoonful of the liquid, put it to his lips and blew on it until it was no longer hot, then slowly passed it to Zitong's lips.

Gazing at Zi Sai's subtle movements, Zi Tong felt a warm current in his heart; it turned out that his cold appearance actually contained such a delicate heart.

Zi Tong couldn't help but open her lips and drink Zisai Shao's Chinese medicinal liquid; the bitter medicinal liquid slipped into her throat and had a sweet taste.
