Wang Jiu saw such a commotion in the wood - shed, but the man in the bed still didn't wake up. He looked pale and bloodless. Wang Jiu vaguely guessed that this man might be seriously ill and unable to move. So he let down his guard. He sized up Wu Luoluo, whose clothes were in disarray and whose skin was fair and delicate. A glint of lust flashed in his eyes again.
Wu Luoluo grabbed her precarious inner - garment with one hand and tightly held the piece of wood with the other. Her face was deathly pale and her lips were trembling. She mustered up her courage and threatened loudly, "Get out of here! Otherwise, I won't be nice to you!"
Wang Jiu saw her shivering and immediately saw through her bravado. Drunk and lecherous, he leered at Wu Luoluo, "Instead of wasting your time on this paralyzed pretty boy who can't do anything, why not spend a night of passion with me? Don't worry. Although I'm not as good - looking as him, I'll surely treat you well!"
Wu Luoluo was so angry that her whole body trembled. She gritted her silver teeth almost to pieces. Blushing with anger, she scolded, "You're shameless! Get out of here!" Then, mustering her courage, she waved the wooden stick to drive Wang Jiu out.
Wang Jiu was not intimidated at all. He snatched the wooden stick from Wu Luoluo's hand. Seeing her panicked and pale face, he felt even more proud. He stepped forward and grabbed Wu Luoluo's fair wrist, advancing step by step.
"Don't come any closer!" Wu Luoluo's voice trembled. She was so flustered that she didn't know what to do. She shrank back against the bed.
Seeing her shivering, Wang Jiu became even more complacent. He reached out his hand to touch Wu Luoluo's fair and slender neck. Just as he was about to pounce on her, he suddenly felt a heavy pressure on his shoulder. Wang Jiu was startled and turned his head. He saw the man who had been in a coma on the bed sitting up. A pair of murderous eyes were coldly staring at him.
The man had a peerlessly handsome face that was breathtakingly beautiful. But at this moment, he was staring intently at Wang Jiu in front of him. The coldness in his eyes was like ice. The powerful aura was so overwhelming that Wang Jiu could hardly breathe. His shoulder was immobile. Wang Jiu couldn't help feeling a bit panicked. Pretending to be calm, he sneered, "Oh! The pretty boy is awake?"
Shangguan Yun frowned, and his palm suddenly tightened. There was a sound of bone - cracking. It was Shangguan Yun who had crushed Wang Jiu's scapula with his bare hands! Immediately, Wang Jiu let out a pig - like scream. He felt a sharp pain in his shoulder. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead. His face was deathly pale, and his right hand trembled like a sieve. He collapsed on the ground and wailed. He looked at Shangguan Yun as if he had seen a ghost.
Wu Luoluo was shocked to see what had happened. She quickly looked at Shangguan Yun on the bed. Just one glance made her catch her breath. Her heart skipped a beat.
The man's eyebrows and eyes were extremely beautiful, like the most dazzling stars in the sky, captivating. Wu Luoluo stood there stupidly, staring at him, and didn't come to her senses for a long time.
Shangguan Yun had an imposing manner even without getting angry. He lowered his eyes and glanced at Wang Jiu, who was sitting paralyzed on the ground. A single word slowly came out of his well - defined lips: "Get out!"
Wang Jiu's face was pale. The sharp pain in his shoulder came in waves. Big drops of sweat rolled down his forehead. He didn't quite understand how the man who had been paralyzed and lifeless in the bed just now could have such a terrifying power that he could crush his scapula with his bare hands! The man was sitting on the bed with his back straight. He simply wore an old robe, and the whole person exuded an undeniable kingly aura.
Wang Jiu even recognized that the robe was his own! That low - class maid, Wu Luoluo, had actually secretly taken his robe and dressed another man in it while he was away?
Seeing Shangguan Yun frowning slightly, Wang Jiu didn't dare to hesitate any longer. He randomly grabbed his disordered outer - garment on the ground, opened the wooden door, and fled in a hurry.
The cold wind whistled in, making Shangguan Yun shiver all over. He felt a chill seeping through his bones. Wu Luoluo quickly stepped forward to bolt the door. She hurriedly gathered a lot of firewood and blocked the entrance of the wood - shed to prevent her senior brother from coming in again. Wang Jiu's actions just now had really scared her half to death.
Shangguan Yun's pair of black eyes stared coldly at Wu Luoluo without blinking. His eyebrows frowned even deeper. Wu Luoluo saw that more than half of his body was exposed outside the quilt. He was only wearing a thin robe that she had stolen from her senior brother and washed. At this moment, he was shivering with cold. Wu Luoluo felt a pang of heartache. She quickly stepped forward, picked up the quilt, and covered Shangguan Yun with it. She whispered, "You can't catch a cold. Lie down quickly!"
Shangguan Yun never liked strangers getting close to him. He coldly glanced at Wu Luoluo, who was so close and still in disarray. He roared angrily, "Get out!"
This voice was even louder than when he had scolded Wang Jiu.
Wu Luoluo trembled all over. She never expected that Shangguan Yun would be hostile to her. She opened her mouth to explain, but when she looked up and saw his extremely cold eyes, she swallowed the words back and quickly stepped back several steps.
Their eyes met. Seeing that she had retreated to a safe distance, Shangguan Yun's eyes gradually calmed down. Just as Wu Luoluo was about to ask him something, she saw him roll his eyes and fall backwards.
Wu Luoluo quickly stepped forward to support him and felt his pulse. She only felt that his pulse was extremely chaotic. It seemed that it was caused by the sudden exertion just now. His qi and blood were surging wildly in his body, and the situation was very bad. In a faint, his eyebrows were slightly frowned, looking extremely vulnerable.
Wu Luoluo vaguely remembered that there was a corresponding acupuncture treatment for this symptom in the medical books she had read. There was no time to hesitate. She could only try her best. She quickly took the acupuncture bag from the table, unfolded it, and quickly inserted the needles to guide his qi and blood.
About half an hour later, Shangguan Yun gradually calmed down. His face looked extremely pale.
Wu Luoluo wiped the cold sweat from her forehead and quickly covered him with the quilt. After calming down for a long time, she gently climbed into the quilt at the foot of the bed and hugged his cold feet into her arms.
Wu Luoluo had no sleepiness at all. She really didn't expect that her senior brother, Wang Jiu, was such a shameless and despicable scoundrel. It was really a close call just now! If it hadn't been for this young master's rescue, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
"Thank you." Wu Luoluo moved closer to Shangguan Yun, snuggling against his body to keep warm.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year.
The sky was just beginning to brighten. Wu Luoluo had been frightened last night, so she couldn't fall asleep when she woke up early in the morning. She tiptoed to feel Shangguan Yun's pulse. Shangguan Yun's face looked very pale, but his pulse was relatively stable. It seemed that he didn't have any bad after - effects because of the disorder of qi and blood last night. Only then did Wu Luoluo feel relieved.
After getting up, Wu Luoluo timidly went to the kitchen to get a kitchen knife and put it beside her, in case Senior Brother Wang Jiu came to harass her again. After washing up, taking advantage of the early hour, Wu Luoluo quickly took the kitchen knife and rummaged through the warehouse to collect all the herbs that Shangguan Yun needed. Then she rushed to make food and baked a lot of pancakes in one go.
