Luo Xichu said okay and slowly sat up with his hands on the bed.

Bai Jinyao looked at Luo Xichu, who seemed to be really weak, and wanted to reach out to help him.

However, she resisted it after a moment of hesitation.

She had to avoid suspicion.

Bai Jinyao inwardly told herself that she had to avoid suspicion three times.

She saw Luo Xichu sitting by the bed, so she brought the food and medicine over and placed them on the small table in front of Luo Xichu.

“You can eat now. I’ll come in later to clean up.”

After that, Bai Jinyao planned to go out first.

She really felt uncomfortable and depressed when she was alone with Luo Xichu.

She should just leave.

Bai Jinyao was about to turn around and leave when Luo Xichu called out to her.

“Wait a moment.”

“What’s wrong?” Bai Jinyao asked.

“I’d like to take a look at the prescription and the dregs of this medicine.”

Luo Xichu looked at the dark medicinal soup as he spoke in an indifferent voice.

Hearing this, Bai Jinyao frowned and put on a serious look.

“Are you suspecting that there’s something wrong with the medicine I gave you?”

Bai Jinyao’s voice was cold.

Luo Xichu was indeed a crown prince. The words he said were always kind of commanding, which made her feel very uncomfortable.

“I’m not suspecting. I just want to take a look. If there’s no prescription and the dregs are thrown away, then forget it.

Luo Xichu lowered her head and didn’t ask further, as if he was not suspecting Bai Jinyao and only wanted to have a look.

Bai Jinyao looked at Luo Xichu’s nonchalant expression and suddenly felt that she had judged a gentleman with her own mean measure.

She bit her lips and then said, “I’ll go and look for it. Wait a moment.”

Bai Jinyao left the house after she finished speaking, so she didn’t see Luo Xichu’s beautiful eyes light up.

After a while, Bai Jinyao brought the prescription and the medicinal dregs to Luo Xichu.

Bai Jinyao said, “This is the prescription. I invited a doctor to take a look at you that day. The doctor wrote the prescription on the spot. I have bought the medicine for the past few days according to the prescription.”

“Thanks.”

Luo Xichu thanked Bai Jinyao and continued to look at the prescription.

Bai Jinyao glanced at Luo Xichu and simply cleaned up the table before leaving the new house.

After Bai Jinyao left, Luo Xichu took out the dregs and carefully looked at them.

He had lost his sense of smell and taste, so he could only rely on his eyes to distinguish the herbs.

There was nothing wrong with the prescription. It was indeed for fever. The dregs should be fine too.

But if there was nothing wrong with the medicine, why was his body still not getting better after taking the medicine for a few days?

Was it really because of the poison that suppressed his inner force?

Luo Xichu looked kind of upset. If he had the sense of smell and taste, he might be able to try to detoxify himself.

Since there was no problem with the prescription, he would try to take the medicine for a few more days.

As long as Luo Xichu was cured, he could leave here.

After Bai Jinyao washed the dishes and cleaned up the kitchen, she went to the water tank in the courtyard.

She lowered her head and looked at the reflection of her current appearance.

However, she closed her eyes again.

To be honest, ever since she came to this place, she had never really taken a good look at this face.

Every day, she would close her eyes and just wipe her face with a handkerchief.

But now, she had to be more careful. Other than solving the interpersonal relationships and other problems of the original owner, she had to make her appearance better.
