Mu Chu dragged his exhausted body out, and Shi Feng was the first to greet him, "How is it? Is he saved?"

"I can't guarantee it. We'll know after the danger period tonight. If he can wake up tomorrow, everything will be fine. If he can't wake up, it will be troublesome." Mu Chu explained.

"Then I'll guard it," Shi Feng replied.

"No, I need to guard it myself. Please pour me a glass of water and send it to my room." Mu Chu's voice was obviously hoarse.

Qin Yuanyi, who had been silent on the side, spoke in an unquestionable tone, "Chu'er, eat something first, I'll keep watch with you for a while."

Mu Chu did not refute. He was indeed a little hungry, so he nodded. After a while, a maid brought over the food.

Mu Chu finished his meal in a hurry and arranged Xin'er to boil the medicine. He took the two pills that Gu Qing gave her, dissolved them, pinched Mingyue's mouth and fed them to her. He then told the maid to boil ginseng soup.

After a series of instructions were given, no one raised any objections to the little girl, and they all immediately went to complete the task.

Qin Yuanyi looked at the serious Mu Chu and her clothes soaked with sweat, feeling inexplicably distressed, but also worried about Mingyue's health.

The other two were also concerned about Mingyue and couldn't find a suitable topic for a while, so the four of them sat in Mingyue's room in silence, each with their own thoughts.

Mu Chu checked Mingyue's pulse, then checked if she had a fever, and was busy giving her medicine and soup.

Seeing that they could not help, the others could only accompany him silently.

Dinner was brought into the room by Xin'er and another maid, and everyone had a quick bite.

Mu Chu asked them to go back and rest, but they insisted on not leaving. Mu Chu felt that Mingyue was their relative, and the feelings between them might be something he would never be able to understand, so he stopped persuading them.

At midnight, Mu Chu fed Mingyue some more medicine, hoping that the medicine Gu Qing gave her would work wonders. Mu Chu really couldn't guarantee whether the operation was successful.

In this way, the four of them sat until dawn. Fortunately, there was no fever all night, and the heartbeat and pulse were normal.

When the first rays of sunlight shone into the house in the morning, everyone looked at each other's disheveled appearance. Qin Yuanyi said, "Everyone go and rest. I'll keep watch."

Mu Chu still refused, not for any other reason but because he was a doctor and how could he leave his patient behind to rest.

As they spoke, the sun shone on Mingyue's face, and Mu Chu clearly saw her eyelashes move. "Don't talk, you're about to wake up."

As soon as he finished speaking, the three of them gathered around and watched Mingyue's eyelids move again and again, and then slowly open her eyes.

Mu Chu took the fan to block the glare for her.

"Mingyue, you finally woke up. How do you feel? Does it hurt?" Shi Feng spoke first.

Mingyue took a deep breath and said in a hoarse voice, "Sir, are you okay?"

Qin Yuanyi next to him said softly, "Don't worry, I'm fine. Just take care of your injuries and stop talking."

Mu Chu made way to let them chat in detail, and then he went out to the door to call Xin'er and prepared some rice porridge.

Coming back again, looking at Qin Yuanyi sitting in front of the couch holding Mingyue's hand, Mu Chu still felt a pang of sadness in his heart. Even though he knew that Mingyue was seriously ill, human nature was so selfish.

Not wanting to watch this scene, Mu Chu motioned Xin'er to come forward with the rice porridge, "Uncle, Sister Mingyue should be fine, but she has just woken up, so it is not appropriate to disturb her too much. Let her rest more, I will go wash up first."

Qin Yuanyi heard her speak, turned around to look at her, and quickly withdrew his hand, "Okay, then go ahead, tell Xin'er if you have anything."

Mu Chu nodded, turned around and went out, returned to his residence, looked at Xin'er who looked tired, "Xin'er, go and have a rest, don't worry about me, remember to feed Sister Mingyue her medicine on time."

After Xin'er left, Mu Chu felt pain all over his body and he had no strength at all. He didn't even bother to wash up. He just changed into clean clothes and fell asleep.

In a daze, I felt someone calling me, but I couldn't wake up no matter what. It was like I was walking in endless darkness and couldn't see the road clearly.

Then I dreamed about my mother locking herself in the room, and the disgusting faces of my stepfather and son kept approaching me. She yelled, "Don't come over here, get out of here."

When Xin'er came to see her, she saw that she was sweating all over, frowning and shouting with fear on her face. No matter how she was called, she couldn't wake up, so she immediately ran to find Qin Yuanyi.
