383. Chapter 383: Aren't You Going to Wake Up and Look at Me

Hearing An Yi say that, Xiao Jin spoke up: "Your master hasn't woken up, and Qiao Sheng's condition isn't very good either; she's not suitable now…"

Before he could finish speaking, he saw Qiao Sheng walking with An Yi toward the room where Shi Lin was.

Xiao Jin's subordinates instinctively clenched their fists, but after a short while, he followed after them.

He entered the room.

Qiao Sheng walked only a short distance inside and saw Shi Lin lying motionless on the bed; because he had not eaten well or rested these past days, he was not only much thinner than before but also considerably haggard.

Is this her husband, Shi Lin?

An Yi's voice came from one side: "Master, I have found the Young Lady; quickly open your eyes and look."

Shi Lin gave no response.

Xiao Jin carried a stool forward and let Qiao Sheng sit down to look at Shi Lin.

"Thank you."

After thanking Xiao Jin, Qiao Sheng took the stool, placed it by the bedside, and sat down.

An Yi looked at the two of them and couldn't help sighing inwardly: "Does Heaven have to torment them so much? After finally managing to be together, one is in a deep sleep, the other has been struck by a gu."

"After I disappeared, he kept looking for me?"

Qiao Sheng asked An Yi.

An Yi nodded.

"Master searches for you more persistently than any of us, often without rest for several days; if he didn't do this so often, his body wouldn't be in its current condition."

Before Qiao Sheng could say anything.

An Yi asked outright: "Young Lady, you don't remember us; do you still recall what originally happened? Do you know how you were struck by a gu?"

"I remember very little, and I don't know how I was struck by a gu."

After Qiao Sheng answered, An Yi narrated the events that had occurred before to him.

Having heard Qiao Sheng finish speaking.

An Yi went out, asked the doctor of the medical hall for a brush, ink, paper, and inkstone, wrote a note, then leapt onto a rooftop and summoned the azure jay they used for sending messages.

He placed the note into the bamboo tube tied to its foot and sealed it.

An Yi patted its back and said, "Go, find An Er and the others."

After saying that.

An Yi released it into the air.

When he went to the room where Shi Lin was.

Xiao Jin urged Qiao Sheng: "Qiao Sheng, your body isn't fully recovered; don't sit here, return to your room to rest. When he wakes up, I'll tell you, and you can come see him again."

Hearing that.

Qiao Sheng said calmly: "Xiao Jin, I know my own body; if I were truly uncomfortable, I wouldn't force myself to sit here. You go rest; you've been tired these days as well. I'll sit a while longer before returning to my room."

An Yi walked in and said: "Brother Xiao, you go rest; I'm here."

Seeing Qiao Sheng's iron will to stay here for a while.

Xiao Jin forced a smile and said: "Alright, I'll go rest; call me if you need anything."

"Mm."

Qiao Sheng replied.

An Yi looked at Qiao Sheng, wanted to say something, but swallowed it: "Young Lady, I'll stand guard outside; if you need anything done, just call me."

Qiao Sheng nodded: "Alright!"

When An Yi went out, he thoughtfully closed the door.

Qiao Sheng withdrew his gaze, his eyes falling on the still‑sleeping Shi Lin, and said aloud: "Weren't you looking for me? I'm right here before you now; why don't you wake up quickly and look at me?"

She occasionally says a line.

She sat there for about half an hour.

Qiao Sheng left.

When she left, Shi Lin's finger twitched, but he still didn't wake up.

She now has to drink medicine four times a day.

Not long after returning to the room.

The medicine boy brought the medicine over.

The medicine brewed by the Old Man Wuya was very bitter; Qiao Sheng had always been averse to bitter things, but now, for the sake of her health, she drank it down quickly.
