Old Chu turned his gaze to the others and saw that they all had expressions on their faces, as if they wanted to say something but couldn't. Old Chu was extremely curious, but seeing this situation, he couldn't get any more information out of them, so he could only scratch his head helplessly.
.........
Inside, Ye Yunzhou brought the medicine in and quickly divided it into three portions, taking one portion and feeding it to Luo Shuiyao. Luo Shuiyao didn't cooperate, so Ye Yunzhou sat with her on a large, cushioned chair, holding her in his arms, and patiently fed her the medicine. Fortunately, the pill was small and dissolved quickly in her mouth.
Disdaining the bed, which had been used for who knows what, Ye Yunzhou placed her on this chair so she could recline comfortably. He observed Luo Shuiyao carefully, and seeing that her face was no longer as hot as before, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, muttering softly, "I hope this medicine is working." Another quarter of an hour passed, and Ye Yunzhou lowered his eyes to look at the woman in his arms who seemed to be still unconscious. A slight smile played on his lips, and he asked gently, "Feeling better?"
Luo Shuiyao lowered her head in his arms. Even though the drug had mostly worn off, her cheeks were still burning. Hearing Ye Yunzhou's question, she knew her sobriety had been discovered. She bit her lip, and even though she was extremely reluctant to face it, she could only softly say "hmm" and tried to get up.
But the next moment, Ye Yunzhou held her down again and said, "The effect of the medicine has not yet completely worn off. Take this medicine before getting up." As he said that, Ye Yunzhou picked up the medicine bottle, poured another pill into his palm, and handed it to Luo Shuiyao's lips.
Perhaps it was Ye Yunzhou's movements that were too natural and fluid, or perhaps Luo Shuiyao was recalling all the embarrassing things she had done while unconscious, but she was lost in thought. Seeing Ye Yunzhou's palm approaching, she subconsciously extended her tongue, rolled up the pill, and took it into her mouth. The next moment, she froze, the pill in her mouth like flint, unable to swallow or spit it out.
Her movements were seamless and natural, exceeding expectations. Ye Yunzhou was caught off guard. Looking at Luo Shuiyao, whose gaze was fixed on him, he withdrew his hand, his lips curling up slightly as he subconsciously rubbed his itchy palm with his thumb. His heart was beating uncontrollably, a fire burning within him. He couldn't help but wonder: Could he be under the influence of the drug, too? Otherwise, why was he so easily provoked by her?
By the time Luo Shuiyao came to her senses, the pill in her mouth had already dissolved, leaving only a hint of bitterness on the tip of her tongue. She pursed her lips, took a deep breath, and forced herself not to think about those things. She stood up from Ye Yunzhou's arms, not daring to look directly into his cold and sharp eyes. She simply bowed and said, "Thank you, brother, for saving me today."
Ye Yunzhou quickly calmed down, watching Luo Shuiyao distance herself from him again, as if she wasn't the one he'd embraced so intimately before. However, he knew she was probably visibly ashamed and angry, and fearing she might become enraged, he acted as if nothing had happened and said, "It's okay. Remember to bring a few more people with you when you go out. If anything unexpected happens, send someone to find me immediately."
Luo Shuiyao lowered her head and responded softly again.
Ye Yunzhou thought for a moment and then said, "Do you need me to find a few people to protect you?"
Luo Shuiyao turned her head and looked at him this time, shook her head, and said, "Don't bother me, big brother. I already have people around me. I'll ask them to come over when I get back."
Ye Yunzhou nodded in understanding, not asking about the people around her. Although he hadn't sent anyone to investigate her, he knew she was a person with a clear mind and strong opinions. He simply turned and handed her the medicine bottle on the table, saying, "There's one pill left. Take it in a quarter of an hour. The medicine you've taken this time is very potent, and I'm afraid it will harm you. You know medicine, so feel your pulse. If you need anything, come to me immediately."
His frank revelation of everything that had happened before made Luo Shuiyao feel relieved. She had been worried that Ye Yunzhou would press her further, and now that he was pretending nothing had happened, she decided to pretend she had lost her memory. As a modern person, Luo Shuiyao felt ashamed when encountering such a thing, but she was more ashamed of her actions of forcing others while unconscious than of the incident itself. Since Ye Yunzhou could pretend it never happened, she felt there was no need to dwell on it.
She thought she was behaving very naturally, but she didn't know that Ye Yunzhou saw everything.
A hint of smile flashed in Ye Yunzhou's eyes, but he didn't mention it, just pretending that he had never noticed it. He said, "Please tidy up your clothes, and we will leave now."
Hearing this, Luo Shuiyao looked down at her clothes, her originally calm cheeks flushing red again. She quickly turned around and straightened her messy clothes and hair accessories.
After checking and confirming that everything was in order, Luo Shuiyao turned around and walked out without even looking up, saying, "Let's get out quickly. Chuntao and the others must be worried."
She didn't look back, so naturally she didn't know that Ye Yunzhou was following her closely with tenderness in his eyes.
As soon as Luo Shuiyao left, Chuntao and Chunxing hurried over to greet her. Chuntao looked at her young lady, and her originally calm expression instantly collapsed, and she burst into tears: "Miss, I'm sorry, I wanted to put the flowers down and come back quickly. But who knew that an old man blocked the carriage, saying that we knocked her down, and insisted that we take responsibility, and even called the government to drag us away. If it weren't for this, you wouldn't have suffered so much." She became more and more scared as she spoke, and her tears could not stop flowing.
Luo Shuiyao pulled her into a hug, gently patting Chuntao's shoulder to comfort her. She had been wondering why Chuntao and the carriage had suddenly vanished, but she hadn't expected this to be the reason. Thinking about it, Lin Juncai must have been targeting her for a long time. If he was clearly planning to attack her, why wouldn't he have tried to get rid of the people around her?
"Okay, it's all over. I'm fine. If it happens again, you must find a way to delay it until I come back." Luo Shuiyao comforted softly.
Chun Tao nodded tearfully, "Next time I will definitely follow you closely and not go anywhere. I will definitely not let you encounter such a thing again."
Chun Xing also stepped forward, her face full of guilt, "I'm sorry, Miss, I won't be greedy again. If I had followed them at that time, they wouldn't have succeeded."
"Okay, then you just follow me and protect me from now on." Luo Shuiyao smiled and comforted the two.
Seeing their mood gradually improve, Luo Shuiyao felt relieved. Chun Tao and Chun Xing were already feeling guilty, but now that things had been talked out, their emotions gradually calmed down. They wiped their tears and stepped aside. At this time, Luo Shuiyao turned to look at Ye Yi and asked, "Where are they?"
Ye Yi glanced at Ye Yunzhou after hearing this. Seeing that he didn't show any special reaction, he replied, "There's a house behind this yard. We left those people there."
