Chapter 285: Liu Suifeng Woke Up (II)
Translator: Storm in a Teacup
Long also received the news, saying that Liu once woke up, but fainted again.
After looking at each other, Long and s.h.i.+ decided to go have a look.
When they got there, they didnât dare to disturb Doctor Zhang, so they just waited in the outer room.
About half an hour later, Doctor Zhang finally came out.
âZhang Yuan, how is he?â
âYour Majesty, please rest a.s.sured. The acupuncture methods Doctor Liu told me are very effective. Now the unknown toxin in his body has been controlled. When Doctor Liu wakes up tomorrow, he should have a better way.â
âYou said Liu Suifeng can wake up tomorrow?â Long was very happy.
âYes, Your Majesty. The acupuncture should be done every two hours. Heâll surely wake up tomorrow,â Doctor Zhang said affirmatively.
âThatâs good⦠Thatâs goodâ¦â Long breathed a sigh of relief.
Long and s.h.i.+ left after staying in Yushang Palace for a while.
After coming out, s.h.i.+ said, âWhy donât you talk to Ouyang Chuan?â
Long shook his head. âIâd better not. He must be in a bad mood now. I donât want to annoy him.â
s.h.i.+ raised his eyebrows. âAre you afraid that heâll blame you?â
Long smiled. âI donât think heâll blame me⦠but⦠itâs just unnecessary. After Liu Suifeng recovers, I can say anything I like, but now everything is annoying for him. Besides, comforting words are actually meaningless, so just let him stay with Liu Suifeng quietly.â
âWell, what you said makes sense.â
Long took s.h.i.+âs hand. âOf course, Qingzhou, my words always make sense. There is absolutely no doubt about this!â
s.h.i.+ rolled his eyes. âYouâve had your tail up.â
âHaha.â Long laughed. There was hope that Liu would wake up, so Long felt a little relieved.
The next day, Liu really woke up.
It was noon, when Long and s.h.i.+ happened to go to visit him.
Long was right in front of the bed. When Liu opened his eyes, Long was taken back. Then, he said happily, âHey, Liu Suifeng, you are awake!â
Liu looked at Long and smiled. âThe emperor is here.â
Long raised his eyebrows. âYeah, itâs me. Who do you think it is?â
Liu smiled and turned his head. âBrother Ouyang.â
âYeah.â Ouyang held Liuâs hand. âItâs me. Youâre awakeâ¦â
Liu blinked and suddenly said, âI feel hungry. I want to eat something.â
âOkay, eat something.â Ouyang smiled, âIâll order the servants to prepare some food.â
âOkay. Iâll be waiting for you.â
After Ouyang went out, Long said, âLiu Suifeng, what are those things in your body? Are they toxins or poisonous insects? Do you know that?â
âTheyâre poisonous insects. The whole body of Chen Mengxing was made up of poisonous insects. I donât know what method he used to get himself exploded. Then, those poisonous insect came out of his body and entered mine. Fortunately, those insects havenât got into my heart. Thanks to the golden silk armor, Iâm still fine.â
Liu also felt a little scared as he spoke.
He would be in great danger if he didnât wear the golden silk armor back then.
Long and s.h.i.+ looked very serious after hearing this. âSo how can you get rid of them?â
âI already have a preliminary plan. I will talk to Zhang Yuan in detail later.â
âThatâs good.â Long let out a sigh of relief. âI was afraid you wouldnât think of a way.â
Liu smiled faintly. âWho am I? Is it possible that I canât think of a way? Donât worry. Yama wonât take me away.â
âStop bragging. If you were really so powerful, you wouldnât be lying here now, would you?â Long sneered.
Liu felt a little embarra.s.sed.
At this time, Ouyang came in with some food.
The smell of the birdâs nest porridge made Liuâs mouth water.
âIt smells so goodâ¦â
âOf course it does. The dishes made by the imperial cooks in the palace are naturally extraordinary,â Ouyang said with a smile.
Liu blinked. âHelp me up.â
âNo need to sit up. Just lie there and eat.â Long teased him.
Liu rolled his eyes. âLie here and eat? Do you think everyone is as lazy as you?â
With a faint smile, Ouyang helped Liu up.
âSuifeng, is it comfortable? Tell me if it makes you tired.â
âDonât worry, Brother Ouyang, itâs okay. Iâm not that vulnerable as a little girl.â
Long rolled his eyes. âRight, youâre not vulnerable, but youâve been lying here for seven or eight days.â
Liuâs face darkened and he wanted to drive Long away. âAll right, you can go now. Donât ruin my mood here!â
s.h.i.+ gently pulled Long to stop him from arguing with Liu.
âWell, letâs go. There are still some memorials that have not been dealt with.â
âOkay, Iâll listen to you, Qingzhou.â Long looked like a henpecked husband.
Liu sneered, his eyes full of mockery at Long.
Long didnât care about Liu at all and still looked very proud. Then, he took s.h.i.+âs hand and left.
s.h.i.+ looked at the man next to him and felt a little embarra.s.sed, wondering why this guy⦠could find pleasure in it.
After a pause, s.h.i.+ said, âJust look at yourself⦠Do you still have dignity?â
âWhat? Dignity?â Long blinked. âDo I still need dignity in front of my empress? Thatâs for outsiders.â
s.h.i.+ found it so funny. âSo⦠Liu Suifeng and Ouyang Chuan are not outsiders?â
âThey are, but I just want to show off in front of them. A man should spoil his wife, shouldnât he? Others should feel envious!â Long took it for granted.
Long was very serious and wasnât joking at all. s.h.i.+ thought it was a bit funny, but he felt very happy at the bottom of his heartâ¦
Someone you loved also loved you deeply. Nothing could make you happier than that, right?
Long took s.h.i.+âs hand and walked towards Qiankun Palace. âBy the way, Qingzhou, are there any letters from your father?â
âNo. Whatâs the matter?â s.h.i.+ asked.
Long touched his chin. âIâm just thinking, Mr. Chen definitely wasnât abandoned by them, but he has been dead for a while⦠Logically speaking, all parties should have taken action.â
After a pause, s.h.i.+ said slowly, âThat makes senseâ¦â
Long smiled. âBut no news is good news⦠At least, we can have some quiet time.â
âYesâ¦â s.h.i.+ nodded. âIndeedâ¦â
