Chapter 181: Hiding Under Her Bed (1)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Bai Xianyu grabbed Xie Xingyun’s hand and a trace of panic flashed across her eyes. “Get under the bed.”
Xie Xingyun’s face twitched.
The girl grabbed his sleeve and wanted to look at the condition under the bed, but he held her shoulders and whispered into her ear, “1 can’t hide there. I’m tall.”
Hearing the footsteps approaching, Bai Xianyu bit her lip with a conflicted expression.
The curtain drapes in front of Bai Xianyu quietly fell to the ground, covering the undulating bedding.
She secretly clenched her fists and tried her best to sound calm. “Third Brother, Fourth Brother.”
Bai Jingyuan, who was frowning with a heavy heart, was stunned.
Bai Jinyan was also stunned. He immediately rushed in. “Little Yu!”
He ran very quickly and appeared in front of Bai Xianyu’s bed in the blink of an eye. He lifted the curtain drape and was about to lift it. “How are you?”
Bai Xianyu hurriedly said, “I’m fine! Third Brother, I’m a little inconvenienced now.” freew ebnovel.com
She spoke hurriedly and fast. After she finished speaking, she immediately coughed a few times.
Now that she had probably changed into her pajamas, it was indeed a little inconvenient.
After thinking it through, Bai Jinyan immediately retracted his hand. “Okay, okay, okay. Your maid said that you had just fallen asleep. We didn’t want to disturb your rest, but we were really worried, so we came to take a look.”
Xie Xingyun lay beside Bai Xianyu. Because there had been physicians taking her pulse these past few days, the curtain drapes here had been replaced by thick ones. When the physician was taking her pulse, they were separated by the curtain drapes and a handkerchief to avoid arousing suspicion.
Therefore, one could only see a blurry figure from outside the curtain drapes.
He heard Bai Xianyu cough and grabbed her hand under the blanket.
Bai Xianyu’s body stiffened.
Bai Jingyuan also coughed twice. In order to make his illness more real, he had used some methods to catch a cold. A few days ago, when he was most infectious, he did not enter the room. Today, he was better, so he rushed over in the night, but he did not dare to get too close. He was probably six or seven steps away from Bai Xianyu’s bed.
Although Bai Jinyan did not open the curtains, he was much more casual. He lifted the hem of the curtain and sat in front of her bed. Through the curtain, he looked left and right, trying to see her face clearly.
“Imperial physician Huang, come quickly. Don’t just stand there!”
“Hey, hey, I’m coming.”
Imperial Physician Huang put away the medicine kit and made some preparations. He said, “Miss, extend your hand.”
Bai Xianyu stretched out her left hand; Xie Xingyun was palpating the pulse on her right hand.
After Xie Xingyun took her pulse, he did not let go. Instead, he slowly opened her hand and interlocked his fingers.
After doing all this, he turned his body sideways and did not move. Under the blanket, his line of sight was the girl’s fragrant and slightly moist sleepwear. It was a little translucent and was pressed against her soft and fair back.
Bai Xianyu originally wanted to break free, but she was afraid of causing a commotion and being noticed by them. After thinking for two seconds, she did not move for the time being.
The physician’s gaze was long. After a while, he stood up and smiled. “You’re recovering well. Your fever has completely subsided. As long as you take care and keep warm, there won’t be any more problems.”
Hearing his words, the three men in the room heaved a sigh of relief.
Xie Xingyun’s gaze moved slightly, and his grip on her hand tightened. His calloused fingers gently caressed her fingers.
Bai Xianyu’s hands were also very beautiful. Her fingers were like onions, soft as if they had no bones. There was a faint pink on her fingertips, like a stamen.
Bai Jingyuan looked up at Imperial Physician Huang. “Thank you.”
Imperial Physician Huang nodded and smiled. “It’s already my fortune to be able to help. Young Masters, you don’t have to worry.”
The three of them chatted for a while more before Imperial Physician Huang took his leave.
After he left, Bai Jinyan stretched out his head and leaned against Bai Xianyu’s bed. He sighed sadly. “Little Yu, you have made me worried to death.”
Little Yu had been protected by them since she was young. When had she ever encountered such a dangerous situation? Not to mention being shot, even if she were to prick herself when embroidering a pouch, he would feel his heart ache.
The moment he leaned over, Bai Xianyu’s heart almost jumped out of her throat. Xie Xingyun subconsciously tightened his grip.
Xie Xingyun tightened his grip as if to comfort her.
The girl was afraid that she would be seen through, so she retreated inside. Xie Xingyun could not move. He was tall and had long legs. Even when he was hiding under the blanket, he had to bend himself. If he moved, he would definitely make a sound.
Hence, Xie Xingyun watched as she got closer and closer to him. She was so close that if he lowered his head slightly, his high nose bridge could touch her beautiful shoulder blades..
