Chapter 60: Chapter 60 Let Hold You for a While
The urgency in Mu Lingyun’s tone was sothing Uncle Liang could feel.
“Okay,” Uncle Liang responded and sped up, driving frantically towards the Ji family ho.
The road was clear all the way until they arrived in front of the main building. Mu Lingyun got out of the car and was imdiately told by a housekeeping aunt, “Miss Mu, the Crown Prince is in his study, Xiao Kai is waiting for you on the second floor. Please hurry up.”
“Okay,” Mu Lingyun replied and quickly entered the main building, climbing the stairs briskly.
At the door of Ji Luochen’s study, she saw Xiao Kai, who looked anxious and was frowning. She lowered her voice and asked, “What happened? Is he sick again?”
“I don’t know. I saw him this morning, and he was very off, gloomy all over, his face tense all the ti. By lunchti, he began to hurt again. The pain was unbearable, and he refused to go to the hospital. I tried several tis to go in but was told to get out. The old master didn’t care either; he told to find you,” Xiao Kai explained in detail, his face looking terrible.
“I’ll go in and check on him. Can you find so acupuncture needles? Get a set,” Mu Lingyun said, then stepped into Ji Luochen’s study.
Although Xiao Kai was not pleased to be ordered around by Mu Lingyun, after watching for a while and not seeing her thrown out, he went to find the acupuncture needles as she had instructed.
Upon entering the study, Mu Lingyun saw Ji Luochen sitting in the chair, his head tilted and resting on the desk, his handso face deathly pale, with no trace of blood on his thin lips.
He was gritting his teeth against the pain, his features twisted in agony, beads of sweat the size of soybeans on his forehead.
His two long, attractive hands, one tightly gripping the desk and the other clutching his chest fiercely.
This look must an the pain had reached an extre, right?
Mu Lingyun felt a pang of heartache and walked over.
“I… I said, I’m not going… to the hospital. Get out?” Ji Luochen, hearing footsteps, was in too much pain to even lift his head or open his eyes and could only utter a low rebuke.
Mu Lingyun didn’t speak but stepped closer to Ji Luochen, reaching out to hold his hand that was gripping the desk.
“Who… get away…” Ji Luochen growled, trying to shake off Mu Lingyun’s hand.
“Your Highness, it’s , I’m Mu Lingyun,” she said softly.
Ji Luochen seed stunned for a mont, then with effort raised his head, looking at Mu Lingyun with sowhat dispersed eyes.
“Mumu—” he called out in a low, husky voice and then reached out to wrap his arms around the young girl’s slender waist, murmuring, “It hurts, let hold you for a while, just a while—”
Hearing his restrained and enduring voice, Mu Lingyun felt more heartache and wrapped her arms around his head, asking, “Does it hurt a lot? Why won’t you go to the hospital?”
“No going…” He did not state the reason, just stubbornly refused.
Mu Lingyun was sowhat helpless; his pain was so intense that it was distorting his consciousness, yet he remained obstinate.
“Alright, then we won’t go. Give your hand, let have a look,” she said, grabbing his right hand.
Ji Luochen’s breathing eased slightly, as if the pain had slightly abated. He said nothing but obediently extended his right hand to Mu Lingyun.
However, his left hand still tightly encircled Mu Lingyun’s slender waist without moving an inch.
Mu Lingyun, holding Ji Luochen’s wrist, appeared sowhat solemn.
In her past life, aside from completing the mission of unifying the seven kingdoms, she had spent all her other ti studying traditional Chinese dicine.
She had been an apprentice under five or six masters and had read countless dical texts.
All this was for the purpose of taking his pulse, a wish that had taken a lifeti to fulfill.
His pulse was disorderly, showing signs of inadequate Qi and blood and an unstable heart pulse.
