Why would he be here?
She had seen him, by Chu Liange’s side.
Now she had forgotten what Chu Liange had said about him, but later, he and Tianci went to the cold palace to rescue her.
That ti, Tianci died, but he was nowhere to be seen!
Now, although he was still young, his distinguished appearance hadn’t changed much!
Yun Jinnian pursed her lips tightly, staring at Dongfang Xu without moving any closer.
Dongfang Xu was also confused, having no recollection of Yun Jinnian in his mory.
"Fourth Miss!" Dongfang Huo called out softly.
Dongfang Zan was bitterly disappointed, thinking Yun Jinnian had taken a liking to Dongfang Xu.
It made sense, after all, Dongfang Xu had the best looks and the highest martial arts skills in the Dongfang family.
Dongfang Rong and Dongfang Fu were also puzzled, "Fourth Sister, what’s wrong?"
Yun Jinnian snapped back to reality upon hearing them, "It’s nothing!" She flashed a shallow smile at everyone, "Let’s go in and check on the City Lord!"
Upon entering the room, the lady of the City Lord Residence ca up to greet her, "Fourth Miss!"
"Has the City Lord woken up?"
"He has!"
Yun Jinnian nodded and entered the bedroom.
Dongfang Jingtian was leaning against the headboard, greeting Yun Jinnian with a gentle smile.
"City Lord!" Yun Jinnian bowed respectfully.
Her heart was in disarray because of Dongfang Xu’s presence.
Sitting at the bedside, Yun Jinnian asked, "Did you eat anything last night?"
"I had a bowl of porridge!"
Yun Jinnian didn’t ask whether the porridge contained oil, nor did she inquire about what had happened in the anti. These were not matters for her to concern herself with.
"Let take the City Lord’s pulse!"
"Mmm!" Dongfang Jingtian nodded.
The lady of the City Lord Residence imdiately pulled out Dongfang Jingtian’s hand and gently rolled up his sleeve. Only after Yun Jinnian had taken his pulse did she say, "You should get more sun exposure, don’t stay inside all the ti. If you can manage it, getting sun from morning until evening would be best!"
Dongfang Jingtian remained silent.
The lady of the City Lord Residence eagerly asked, "Does the lord still have the Iron Sand Snake in his body?"
"Yes, it can’t be completely eradicated in one go. It will take three or four rounds, plus dicines, to thoroughly remove it!"
"As long as it can be completely removed, that’s good. Fourth Miss, just say whatever you need. You can make use of whatever is in the dicine room, and if there is sothing you need that we don’t have, just write a list, and I’ll send soone to buy it imdiately!"
"Okay, I’ll take a look at the dicine room in a bit!"
To the dicine room, there would be Dongfang Fu and Dongfang Rong leading Yun Jinnian, accompanied by a few tall maids who look quite strong.
When they reached the dicine room, Yun Jinnian examined each dicine cabinet but didn’t see any particularly rare dicinal herbs.
Perhaps the rare herbs were not stored in the dicine room.
Yun Jinnian took so herbs, instructed soone to decoct them, and then applied the resultant paste to Dongfang Jingtian’s wounds.
"It promotes tissue regeneration. Once applied, the flesh should heal faster," Yun Jinnian said.
Dongfang Fu and Dongfang Rong looked on with eyes full of admiration.
After spending a while in the dicine room, Yun Jinnian prepared to return to the guest courtyard to accompany Mrs. Han, only to see Dongfang Huo rushing over and greeting Yun Jinnian with a fist in palm salute, "Fourth Miss!"
"What’s the matter?"
"Fourth Miss, a guest has suddenly felt unwell. The guest’s status is illustrious, so we dare not let just any physician treat them. I wonder if it would be convenient for you to co and have a look?"
In the City Lord Residence, for the eldest son to ntion an illustrious status ant the visitor was no ordinary person.
Yun Jinnian pondered for a mont, then nodded slightly, "Lead the way, Eldest Young Master!"
Following Dongfang Huo were Hei and Henuan.
Dongfang Fu and Dongfang Rong couldn’t follow, so they went to inform Mrs. Han instead, so she wouldn’t worry.
When Yun Jinnian arrived at the guest courtyard with Dongfang Huo and saw Luoyi and Luo’er standing at the entrance, she knew the illustrious guest was Chu Yu.
Whether Chu Yu was genuinely sick or faking it, her steps quickened.
