Ou Mucen finally heard the key point, so immediately, his face changed for a moment before he turned to head back to his own Orchid Garden.
Ji Chengzhi saw this and caught hold of him from the side, "I’ve already examined her before you came. Didn’t you make her wear that thing you gave her?"
"No, she’s been wearing it all along." Ou Mucen was taken aback by this remark.
Indeed, that object... since Lin Yebai had instructed him, he had never taken it off her, even today when he went to the company, he had changed it for her.
Suddenly, he remembered the discoloration he saw on the object when he took it off at noon. Instantly, a sense of foreboding "thudded" in his heart, giving rise to a bad premonition.
"Did you see something?"
"Nothing much, but her eyes were of a deep green color."
"Yes, I remember you told me before, because of the specialty of her eyes, and then that man named Lin Yebai gave her a pair of somethings, after which her eyes turned pitch black, but just now when I went to see her, I found they were deep green again, so I was wondering if you had forgotten to put them on for her?"
Even if he forgot everything else, he would never forget to put that on for her.
The bad feeling in Ou Mucen’s heart grew stronger: "Did you find anything else during your checkup?"
Ji Chengzhi thought for a moment: "Nothing else, just that her eyes were extremely bloodshot."
"Yes, as if they had been exposed to strong light. When I went there, she kept saying her eyes were hurting, so I washed them for her, applied some eyedrops, and she should be resting now."
Ji Chengzhi was aware of the girl’s secret. Ever since Ou Mucen had told him everything, he had been clear about the specifics of her eyes, so when he heard there might be an issue with her eyes, he rushed to check on her right after he had taken care of the old master.
Fortunately, there was no serious problem!
He didn’t hide anything from him anymore.
But on hearing this, Ou Mucen couldn’t stay put any longer and dashed out of the bedroom, heading toward the Orchid Garden.
Bai Tingfang stayed in the room, watching him hurry out, disregarding even his own father, which left her quite dissatisfied: "Where is he going? Is he not even caring for his own father?"
Ji Chengzhi hurriedly laughed: "Auntie, he’s going to check on Xiaoning. I told him about her eye situation."
"Oh..." Hearing this, Bai Tingfang wasn’t upset anymore.
Never mind, she wouldn’t interfere from now on. As long as the two of them were happy and blissful, that was enough for her as a mother.
It was just a few minutes, and Ou Mucen arrived at the Orchid Garden.
Once he got to the Orchid Garden, despite usually liking cleanliness, he didn’t even take off his shoes, and rushed in: "Sister Wang? Sister Wang? Where is the young mistress?"
"Third Young Master, it’s you who’s back? The Third Young Mistress has fallen asleep."
Sister Wang was upstairs tidying up the rooms, when suddenly she heard the anxious footsteps and calls below, and hurriedly came out.
That’s right, Ji Chengzhi said he gave her medicine and then put her to rest.
Upon hearing this from Sister Wang and recalling what Ji Chengzhi had told him back in the Bamboo Garden, Ou Mucen immediately went upstairs to his own bedroom.
As expected, the girl who had been chatting happily with him at home this morning was now lying deeply asleep on the bed, so quiet and still that even when he entered from outside, opened the door, and his shoes, which he hadn’t taken off, made noise on the wooden floor, she didn’t hear a sound.
