1247 Pushed Him Away With A Wary Look On Her Face

If anything happened to Chu Jiu, Weiwei would blame him for it.

Chu Jiu felt like she was in an icy lake in her dream. She was frozen all over, but suddenly, her frozen body was covered in warmth.

The warmth slowly melted the cold surrounding her body and her trembling body calmed down.

The next day.

Chu Jiu was a little dazed when she woke up.

The memory of her dream last night made her frown, but she realized why she had the dream when she saw herself covered by quite a few blankets.

No wonder she was cold one minute last night and hot the next. Someone had covered her with several blankets.

It must be the soldier who took care of her in the daytime.

She was very grateful to him

Chu Jiu even felt much better.

She was about to get out of bed when Lil Guo came in holding a bowl of medicine in his hands. When he saw her awake, he said happily, “You’re finally awake, Miss Chu Jiu.”

Chu Jiu said gratefully, “Thank you so much for last night.”

Lil Guo was taken aback. “I didn’t do anything last night.”

“These blankets…” Chu Jiu touched the blankets, looking puzzled.

Lil Guo noticed the two extra blankets on her bed and explained, “You suddenly threw up last night and fainted after that, so, I went to report this matter to Heir Presumptive Lu’s personal guard, Master Xu, and requested for the Grand Duchess to give you a checkup. After that, Heir Presumptive Lu came over and he sent me off to take a rest. It might be Heir Presumptive Lu who helped get you the blankets.”

Lu Tingchen?

Chu Jiu frowned.

“The Grand Duchess said that you are still weak and you need to focus on recuperating to recover fully. You should hurry up and finish your medicine.” Lil Guo came forward and passed the medicine to her.

Chu Jiu took it from him and drank it.

Lil Guo took the empty bowl and continued, “Have a good rest. I’ll help you bring your breakfast over.”

“Thank you for the trouble.” Chu Jiu was grateful.

Chu Jiu tried to get up after Lil Guo left because she wanted to walk around in the tent.

However, everything around her spun the moment she stood up and she almost fell back into bed. Lucky for her, she caught herself by grabbing onto the side of the bed.

She knew her body was weak, but she had no idea it was this bad.

Chu Jiu frowned and felt a little dejected.

She hated feeling weak!

When Lu Tingchen came to the tent, he saw her sitting by the side of the bed, looking upset.

“What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”

The man’s inquiring voice pulled Chu Jiu out of her messed-up thoughts.

She was a little surprised when she lifted her head and saw the person coming in.

Lu Tingchen was holding breakfast in his hands. He placed it on the table and went up to her, reaching his hand out to feel her forehead.

He did this so naturally, as if it was a reflex reaction.

Chu Jiu found this a little awkward and she turned her head away.

“I’m fine now,” she said lightly.

Lu Tingchen was relieved that she did not have a fever.

However, when he saw that she was still looking pale and had no color on her face, he said, “You should lie down if you don’t feel well. Just give instructions to Lil Guo if there is anything you need.”

“Alright,” Chu Jiu replied, but her head continued to stay lowered.

“I’ve brought your breakfast here for you. Hurry up and eat it.” Lu Tingchen turned to leave after saying this, but he saw her still sitting at the side of the bed when he looked back. She did not move and his handsome face frowned as he turned back toward her. “Can’t you move?”

A shadow loomed over her, which startled Chu Jiu. “What?”

Lu Tingchen noticed her reaction was much slower than usual. This was not like her usual self at all. It convinced him that she must really be sick.

Before she could say anything, he suddenly carried her in his arms.

“What are you doing?” Chu Jiu pushed him away with a wary look on her face.
