Madam Rui comforted her, "Miss, don't worry. Doctor Gan Sui has already given Master Xie a new medicine. Master Xie will wake up sooner or later."

Chu Heyi was shocked. His first reaction was that he had heard it wrong, and his second reaction was that Nanny Rui was wrong.

"What do you mean, Madam? Has Lord Xie never woken up since I entered the palace?"

Nanny Rui didn't know what she was thinking, so she could only try her best to comfort her: "Yes, young lady, but Doctor Gan Sui said that there is still hope for Master Xie."

Chu Heyi was completely stunned. If Xie Lin had never woken up, then who was the person who said outside the Zichen Palace that he liked her and wanted to come to the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion to propose marriage?

At that time, she clearly saw Xie Lin!

Was it just her illusion, a fantasy? Was it because she was so eager for Xie Lin to wake up?

Chu Heyi ignored the pain in her body, lifted the quilt and went to the guest room to see Xie Lin, which frightened Rui Ma and Xin Yue so much that they were worried and stopped her immediately.

"I'm going to go see Xie Lin to see if he's okay! I can't rest without seeing him. Mammy, please let me go and don't stop me, okay?"

Chu Heyi begged and was about to cry. How could Nanny Rui bear it?

I had no choice but to say, "Miss, you can go, but you must wear shoes and socks before going, and you must be obedient and let us support you. Although Master Xie was seriously injured, Miss's injuries were not light either.

"When Master Xie gets better tomorrow, what should we do if Miss falls down again? Even for Master Xie, Miss has to take good care of herself."

Chu Heyi knew that Nanny Rui was doing this entirely for her own good, and she also knew that what Nanny Rui said made sense, but Xie Lin was in imminent danger, and she couldn't control herself.

As soon as she put on her shoes and socks, she was about to stand up. Nanny Rui rushed forward to help her put on her cloak and hood, and then helped her to the guest room where Xie Lin was.

In the guest room, in addition to Wangshan and Gan Sui, the Second Madam also assigned two maids and a nanny to take care of Xie Lin.

When Chu Heyi came over, everyone subconsciously stood aside and made way in the middle. Chu Heyi walked straight to Xie Lin's bed. The nanny next to her brought a stool and Nanny Rui helped her sit down.

"It's been a day, and his fever still hasn't gone down? Not even once?" Chu Heyi looked at Xie Lin's pale and bloodless face. She felt so uncomfortable that she wanted to cry, but she couldn't.

"After you entered the palace, the master's high fever subsided once, but it came back again in just a quarter of an hour. Doctor Gansui has already changed the medicine. It depends on tonight." Wangshan answered, his voice choked with sobs.

Gan Sui said, "If I hadn't changed the medicine, it would have been very dangerous if he hadn't woken up today. But I changed the medicine, and the hope of Lord Xie waking up is much greater. However, we still have to wait and see the final result, as his physical condition is too poor."

Gan Sui's face was filled with fatigue. He had not had much rest in the past two days in order to treat Xie Lin and Chu Heyi.

Chu Heyi said, "Thank you for your hard work, Doctor Gansui. Please go down and rest first. I will call you if there is anything else."

Gan Sui knew that there was no point in staying here, so he nodded slightly, turned around and left.

Chu Heyi said, "Mammy, take everyone down. I'll stay here to watch over Xie Lin."

Nanny Rui opened her mouth and wanted to say something. After all, Chu Heyi was also an injured person and could not take care of Xie Lin. She was worried about leaving Chu Heyi here alone.

But Chu Heyi said first: "Mammy, I want to be alone with Xie Lin for a while and talk to him."

Upon hearing this, Nanny Rui sighed deeply, fearing that Xie Lin would not survive the night. It was only natural for a young lady to have such a request. Thinking of this, she led everyone downstairs.

The room fell silent instantly. Chu Heyi sat beside the bed and stared at Xie Lin. His eyes passed from his eyebrows to his tall nose and then to his bloodless lips...

Even though he was injured so badly, and even though his face was so pale, it still couldn't hide his stunning beauty.

Chu Heyi placed her finger on his lips and said bitterly, "God gave you such a beautiful face, but didn't let you live a good life. Fate is really unfair to you."

There was a long silence, and Chu Heyi's tears dripped onto him, soaking his clothes.

"Xie Lin, please get better. As long as you get better, I will do my best to make you happy and let you live a good life."

She lay gently on Xie Lin's chest, feeling his hot body temperature and listening to his heartbeat.

Will there be such an opportunity again in the future?

Will there be any more...

——"Please, God, let him live. I am willing to shorten my life by ten years... No, as long as you let him live, even if I die at the same age as in my previous life, I will be willing to do so."

She couldn't stop her tears, which kept pouring out. Soon, Xie Lin's clothes were completely wet.

Suddenly, Chu Heyi heard him snort. She quickly sat up and found that Xie Lin's face was flushed and his hair was soaked with sweat.

It turned out that what soaked his clothes were not only her tears, but also the sweat that suddenly broke out from his body.

"Madam Rui...Doctor Gansui, please come in quickly!" Chu Heyi shouted towards the outside of the door, and then called Xie Lin's name.

"Xie Lin, wake up. Are you hot? Don't you want a blanket?"

Nanny Rui, Gan Sui and others came in quickly from outside. Gan Sui came to the bedside and immediately took Xie Lin's pulse, then felt his face and forehead.

She lifted the blanket off him and slightly opened his shirt. "Go get a basin of warm water and wipe him. His fever should be going down."

"Oh oh." Nanny Rui was very excited. She immediately asked someone to get some warm water, and then she personally went to get a few clean towels. She quickly came over and wiped Xie Lin herself.

The room was bustling with activity. Chu Heyi waited with bated breath, her eyes fixed on Xie Lin's face. She watched him sweat all over, and his flushed face slowly return to normal. She ignored the distinction between men and women and held his hand tightly.

It was not until Xie Lin's fever completely subsided that she discovered that she was sweating more than Xie Lin, not less.

"The fever has subsided. He should wake up soon. Go prepare some porridge for him." Gan Sui said.

Aunt Rui took people to prepare.

Chu Heyi still held his hand tightly, sitting beside his bed, watching him wake up, as if she had been waiting for a long time, and as if it was just a moment, she saw Xie Lin's eyelashes tremble slightly, and then he opened his eyes with difficulty as if he was resisting a thousand pounds of weight.

The moment she met his gaze, Chu Heyi burst into tears.

Xie Lin stretched out his hand tremblingly and wiped away the tears rolling down her face, drop by drop.
