Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Xiu Jie found this pageboy and hired him. He was a very careful person who had no knowledge of medical skills, but he was very good at taking care of patients and was an obedient person. He was asked to feed the patient the medical soup Gu Chaoyan had prepared when he woke up and to make him sleep. He obeyed what Gu Chaoyan asked him to do, but the patient did not cooperate. So he was feeling very helpless and worried.
Gu Chaoyan nodded and smiled briefly. “You have walked hard, go and take a break, Qing will be in charge of him later.”
The pageboy cleaned up the stuff in the room and left. Gu Chaoyan looked at the man lying in bed.
He was badly injured and had just woken up. He should have been feeling tired and sleepy after drinking her medical soup, but he was still keeping his eyes open, refusing to close them and rest.
Gu Chaoyan understood him well.
He had just escaped from death. He had not expected that he would live. Since he could open his eyes, he would refuse to close them again, fearing that he would never wake up after he shut them.
He had a strong desire to live.
Gu Chaoyan looked at him and felt a bit helpless too, like the pageboy.
“You don’t trust me, do you? I can rescue you from death, so I can also guarantee that you live on.” Gu Chaoyan felt his pulse helplessly.
The man was obviously worried that Gu Chaoyan had misunderstood him. He said directly, “No, that is not what I mean, I just… I just feel that it is so great to be awake, and I would like to be awake for a little longer.” Gu Chaoyan nodded and dropped the topic. She felt his pulse and found that all was well with him and he was recovering well.
“Your pulse is steady, so your inner injuries are gradually recovering too. What you need to do is to take good care of your outer injuries. So don’t be greedy for your waking hours, take a good rest, so that you can recover well. It is getting late, I will have a few questions to ask you when you wake up again,” Gu Chaoyan said calmly.
He put his hands into the blanket and got up.
Hearing that Gu Chaoyan had some questions to ask him, the man said quickly, “Elder Miss, please, ask me now. I can’t be burdened with anything, or I won’t be able to rest well.”
Gu Chaoyan looked back at him. He looked like he was in a good mood.
She thought for a while and asked. “It’s not a big deal, I was just wondering what hurt you?”
Gu Chaoyan tried to sound relaxed. She was worried that he would get frightened when reminded of the terrible scene. However, it seemed that this man was not frightened of what he had experienced. Instead, he started to recount what he had experienced.
“At that time, I was not fed well at home, so I thought about hunting something in the mountains. As I was walking along the path, I suddenly got grabbed by a very strange-looking thing. It did not seem to have the intention of killing me, it was just hurting me with its teeth. It had very sharp teeth, like a blade, but I truly did not get a good look at what it looked like, it moved too fast.” The man kept recalling what he had experienced, but he just could not think of the appearance of the attacker.
The jaws were sharp like blades.
Gu Chaoyan frowned. She had no idea what could be sharp like a blade.
She shook her head.
“I got it, take a good rest now, please.” Gu Chaoyan stressed and was about to leave.
“Hang on, Elder Miss!” The man stopped Gu Chaoyan suddenly..
