Chapter 154 Awakening
Ning Chuyi was startled, and subconsciously looked in the direction of the hand. The person on the bed was still unconscious, but the hand was tightly holding his jade pendant.
Ning Chuyi's heart moved, and his eyes fell on the pale face without a trace of blood again.
The person still didn't wake up, but he didn't know if it was an illusion. Why did he feel that the blue-gray death on Miss Ling's face seemed to be fading little by little?
Ning Chuyi blinked and looked again.
He found that the death was not only fading, but the speed seemed to be a little faster than before.
Ning Chuyi stared at the person on the bed without blinking, and found that Ling Chu's eyelids seemed to move.
Suppressing the joy in his heart, Ning Chuyi was about to ask Doctor Chen to come over to check again, but he didn't expect to see the pair of tightly closed eyes suddenly opened!
Ling Chu blinked and was stunned for a moment.
How did she see Lord Ning standing by her bed? Was she dreaming?
What Ling Chu didn't know was that Ning Chuyi was more surprised than she was to see her suddenly wake up. For some reason, he subconsciously lowered his eyes to look at the hand on his waist.
Ling Chu followed his line of sight and found that his right hand was actually holding a string on the other's waist.
Startled, the hand quickly loosened as if it was burned by fire.
But the next second, she widened her eyes in astonishment.
A thin layer of ash was disappearing from her palm at a speed visible to the naked eye.
That ash was...
Ning Chuyi's eyes fell from the white palm to his waist.
The string that was originally hanging on the waist was still there, but the jade pendant hanging on the string was gone.
Even though he was always calm, he couldn't help but be surprised. His jade pendant... was absorbed by Miss Ling's right hand?
Ling Chu followed Ning Chuyi's gaze and saw the empty string, and then he realized what happened.
In order to save her, the system actually absorbed Lord Ning's jade pendant.
Oops!
The jade pendant is gone, how is she going to explain to Lord Ning?
Ling Chu was still desperately thinking of excuses in his mind, but Ning Chuyi had already regained his usual calmness.
His eyes paused on the still pale but lifeless face, and he silently raised his hand to untie the string around his waist and gently placed it on her hand.
Ling Chu was stunned!
Seeing that he didn't ask about the jade pendant, she felt relieved, but when she saw the string in her hand, her heart tightened again.
Ning Chuyi naturally saw the tension on her face, but only whispered, "It's good to wake up."
"Doctor Chen, take Miss Ling's pulse."
Before Ling Chu had time to breathe a sigh of relief, she heard him call Doctor Chen, and subconsciously hid the string in her hand under the quilt.
However, the next second Ling Chu was stunned by her own action. Why did she hide the string?
How would Lord Ning look at her?
Ning Chuyi saw the little face that wanted to cry but had no tears in her eyes, and her lips curled up, and she turned and left the bedside.
Doctor Chen was just thinking about what excuse to make to leave Ling Mansion as soon as possible, so as to avoid Miss Ling dying in front of him and being angered by Lord Ning.
At this time, he heard Ning Chuyi asking him to check her pulse again, and he couldn't help but groan in his heart.
But when he turned around and looked at the bedside, he couldn't help but look surprised, "Miss Ling is awake?"
Xia Zhi and Liu Xiangju were standing in the corner wiping their tears. When they heard what Doctor Chen said, they subconsciously looked up.
"Miss, you are finally awake." The two maids rushed to Ling Chu's bedside, crying and laughing at her.
Ling Chu weakly forced a smile at them. Although she was unconscious, she was not completely unconscious.
In her daze, she knew more or less that the two maids served her without taking off their clothes.
After Doctor Chen took her pulse, his brows were tightly knitted.
If he hadn't been confident in his medical skills, he would have almost thought that he was old and blurry and had diagnosed the pulse wrongly.
Miss Ling was clearly at the end of her life, but how come in such a short time, not only did the dead look on her face disappear, but her pulse also began to slowly improve.
Could it be that Lord Ning had taken advantage of his inattention and fed Miss Ling some magic medicine?
Thinking of Ning Chuyi's identity, Doctor Chen felt that this was the only explanation that made sense.
"How is Miss Ling's health now?" Ning Chuyi saw that Doctor Chen stroked his beard with one hand and didn't speak for a long time after taking her pulse, so he had to speak up to interrupt his meditation.
"Miss Ling was weak to begin with. Although she is no longer in danger of death, she has damaged her vitality. She must be carefully taken care of in the future, otherwise..."
Doctor Chen didn't say what else to do. Ling Chu also knew that his body was not a sign of longevity.
Seeing Ning Chuyi's brows knitted, Ling Chu was afraid that he would be dissatisfied with Doctor Chen, so he could only take the initiative to thank Doctor Chen softly, and then let Xia Zhi take him to the side to prescribe medicine.
"Thank you, Lord Ning, for asking the imperial physician for me. You saved my life again..."
Ning Chuyi glanced at her and interrupted her thanks, "Since you are awake, take a good rest. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
Wei Feng originally thought that Ling Chu was going to die, but she woke up when their Lord came.
It was almost noon, and I thought that after the imperial physician Chen finished diagnosing her pulse, the Lord would ask Miss Ling for help, but Ning Chuyi didn't mention it at all.
Wei Feng couldn't help but blurt out in a hurry, "Lord, Miss Ling has woken up, the workshop..."
However, before he finished speaking, he was stopped by Ning Chuyi's cold eyes.
Ling Chu's eyes turned between the two of them, and she was suspicious. She was originally surprised that Ning Chuyi would appear in the Ling Mansion and ask for an imperial physician for her.
Could it be that Lord Ning originally wanted to ask her for help, and when he came to Ling Mansion, he found her unconscious, so he invited a doctor for her?
Thinking of this, Ling Chu's heart moved.
Doctor Chen didn't know the mysterious arts, and didn't see that there was anything wrong with her. He thought that as long as she was carefully taken care of with medicine, she would recover slowly.
But in fact, her current condition is worse than when she just crossed over.
Although the system absorbed two jade pendants and temporarily protected her life, all her merits and luck were taken away. Although she wanted to seek revenge on the person behind the scenes, she didn't have the time and energy to pursue it now.
Because her soul is now shaky and will leave this body at any time.
At present, a large amount of merits and luck is urgently needed to maintain her vitality.
Although Wei Feng hadn't finished what he said just now, Ling Chu could probably guess, "Master Ning, do you need my help to find the hidden silver?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Wei Feng said with a look of surprise, "Yes, Miss Ling guessed correctly."
Ning Chuyi glanced at Wei Feng coldly, and then said to Ling Chu in a gentle voice, "The imperial physician said that you should not worry now, just rest assured and recuperate."
Ling Chu shook his head, "I know my body very well, Master, don't worry. Please wait outside for a while, I will go out with you after I wash up..."
