"Seventh Brother, what happened between you and Seventh Sister?"

Chu Tiange really hoped that the two of them would be fine, and not get estranged because of some unnecessary misunderstandings.

Chu Yin curled his lips and did not say a word.

"I'll help you talk to Seventh Sister."

Now that the plague had been controlled, Wei Qing believed that she would be able to leave the isolation zone very soon. No matter what the misunderstanding was, it was fine as long as she explained it clearly.

Chu Yin's face became even darker, "I already said it, don't talk about this anymore, she's Princess Chu, she's not your Seventh Sister at all!"

Being yelled at like that, Chu Tiange was confused.

She opened her mouth, but could not understand why Chu Yin would suddenly say such a thing.

After considering it over and over again, she instructed the kitchen to make Wei Qing some other snacks, and to make sure that they were given to Wei Qing.

Hearing that Chu Tiange had sent her a snack, Wei Qing wrote down the short note and sent it out.

Xiao Qingqian was still very weak. After hearing that Chu Tiange had brought her some snacks, he also carried the sickly body and arrived at Wei Qing's room.

"Why are you here?" Wei Qing was surprised, and asked.

"I heard that Chu Tiange gave you some snacks, but coincidentally, there's no taste in your mouth, so I want to eat one too!"

Wei Qing frowned and looked at him, and said: "You don't even know how to lie!"

"Then, you are unwilling to give it to This King?" He looked at her with a faint smile.

This dim sum was given by Chu Tiange, but he felt that Chu Yin had specially instructed him to do so. Perhaps, he might even add some short note s to his heart.

Wei Qing took out the dessert, "Which piece do you want to eat, take it yourself!"

The bravery of him recklessly using himself for the test made Wei Qing admire him, and was no longer as despicable towards him as he was in the past.

Xiao Qingqian's gaze slowly moved from her face to the exquisite looking snacks on the table, and casually picked up a piece.

He opened it up and took a look. However, he didn't find any paper. He gently lifted his eyebrow and took another piece of dessert, but he still didn't find anything strange.

Wei Qing frowned, he looked at him in search of him, "Aren't you being too suspicious?"

Xiao Qingqian put the dessert into his mouth, "The taste is not bad!"

Wei Qing said with a darkened face, "I thought you would say it's so unpleasant, it feels like eating shit!"

Xiao Qingqian choked on his own saliva and fiercely glared at her, "This king is eating, do you want to say something so disgusting and filthy?"

"Eating feces, eating feces, are you disgusted?" Wei Qing looked at him with a beaming smile.

Xiao Qingqian threw the snacks into the box, "You can eat your own feces!"

Wei Qing raised her eyebrows as she moved further and further away.

Was this dessert really sent by Chu Tiange?

She stared at the paper and thought for a while. Then she opened it all up and found nothing inside.

Pushing the snacks to the side, Wei Qing laid on the table irritably, and accidentally dropped the box, causing the snacks to scatter all over the floor.

She really felt that she was in a very bad state recently. She vexedly exhaled a mouthful of impure air. As she squatted down to pick up the letter, she suddenly discovered a letter under the food box.

Her gaze froze, and she felt as if her heart was about to stop beating.

Was this a letter that A Yin wrote to her?

Wei Qing clenched the envelope tightly, but she still didn't have the courage to open it.

As time passed, footsteps could be heard outside. She quickly stuffed the envelope into her sleeve and quickly picked up the snacks.

When the guard saw that the snacks were scattered all over the floor, he quickly helped her.

Wei Qing let the guard throw away the dessert. The guard was slightly surprised, and after a long while, he replied with an "Oh" and left the place with his food box.

When Xiao Qingqian looked at the broken pastries, the light in his eyes grew heavy.

Wei Qing must have guessed that the dessert was Chu Yin's gift. If there was a note inside, Wei Qing would have already taken it out.

"Throw it away!" Xiao Qingqian's face darkened, as two words that were as cold as ice came out from his mouth.

The guard accepted the order and left quickly.

Wei Qing struggled repeatedly before she finally had the courage to decide to open the envelope.

Looking at the pictures of herself inside, she felt her heart tighten.

Since his entire heart was filled with his questions, why didn't he answer them in front of Xiao Qingqian that day?

Wei Qing couldn't wrap her head around it, and felt confused and bewildered.

The sound of footsteps came from outside once again. Wei Qing was startled, and immediately hid her portrait into her sleeves.

"What happened?"

The person who came was a doctor. With an anxious look on his face, he said, "Princess Chu, there is a person who went through an abnormal state after taking the new drug!"

Hearing that, Wei Qing's face suddenly changed several times.

She had already tried her best to reduce a few of the more potent medicines. How could something like this happen?

He hurried after the doctor and worked until night fell before the patient's symptoms finally calmed down.

Just as Wei Qing was about to raise her sleeve to wipe the sweat off her forehead, a kernels with the fragrance of bamboo leaves suddenly landed on her cheek.

She was stunned for a moment, and turned to look at Xiao Qingqian.

"Why are you walking around randomly?"

Xiao Qingqian looked at her with a face full of fatigue, "I always want to do something for you."

"You are still weak. Go back!" she said in a low voice.

"This King does not reply!"

"Xiao Qingqian, if you fall sick again, how do you want me to explain this to the Emperor?" Wei Qing was truly angry.

Xiao Qingqian focused on her, and the corners of his mouth slowly rose, "You're still worried about this duke!"

After interacting with him for so long, Wei Qing had actually already gotten used to Xiao Qingqian's arrogance and good self-esteem.

Hearing this, she didn't refute him and only waved at him, indicating for him to return.

After this shocking change, Wei Qing did not dare to let her guard down.

After discussing it with all the doctors, he did everything himself and did not find anything urgent.

It was just that, at this rate, Wei Qing finally could not hold on any longer.

Hearing that Wei Qing had fainted, Xiao Qingqian's expression changed, and he rushed to the light recuperation ward.

"Wei Qing?" He pushed the crowd aside and hurriedly carried her back to his room.

The doctor examined her pulse. She had just fainted due to overexertion due to her weak body. If she slept and took proper care of herself, she would be fine.

Hearing this, Xiao Qingqian's hanging heart finally dropped.

The face that he used to think was repulsive and unsightly to look at, now looked like it was beautiful to the extreme.

He raised his hand and gently caressed the side of Wei Qing's face.

Scorching hot breaths sprayed all over Wei Qing's face, causing her to moan a little in disgust.

Xiao Qingqian stopped moving, and in the end, still stuck close to it.
