Chapter 178 Unawakened for 3 Days
Su Yuchen, who had just taken a cold shower, came downstairs and saw Yun Yao lying on the sofa, looking distressed.
"what happened?"
Upon hearing Su Yuchen's voice, Yun Yao jumped up from the sofa with a start, her expression becoming serious.
"Nothing's wrong!" she said, crossing her arms and looking incredibly arrogant.
Su Yuchen chuckled and handed her the clothes.
"The clothes are new, I'll put them on when I go out later."
Yun Yao paused for a moment, then nodded.
"Su Yuchen, come here." Yun Yao put the clothes aside and patted the spot next to her.
As soon as Su Yuchen sat down, Yun Yao's expression turned serious.
"What if I had said I regretted it just now?" Yun Yao asked very seriously.
Su Yuchen thought she was going to say something based on her attitude, but it turned out she was struggling with this.
As Yun Yao waited expectantly, Su Yuchen stood up and looked down at her.
"you guess."
Yun Yao: “…”
"Put your clothes on, we're going out." Before Yun Yao could complain, Su Yuchen picked up a down jacket from the side and draped it over her shoulders.
Yun Yao looked at him with a resentful expression, secretly thinking about frying him until he was golden brown on both sides.
"You're so old, don't you know how to keep warm?" Su Yuchen said as he helped her put on her clothes.
Yun Yao: "???" So old?
"Su Yuchen, take a look at those books I bought for you when you have time. I think you're so smart you should be able to learn them in no time." Yun Yao pulled the clothes out of Su Yuchen's hands.
Watching the figure storm off in a huff, Su Yuchen's lips curled into a smile.
Sitting in the car, Yun Yao didn't intend to pay him any attention and kept looking out the window.
Suddenly, a deep and pleasant voice rang out.
I won't give you a chance to regret it.
Yun Yao tightened her grip, and as she turned her head, she met those deep, affectionate eyes. An unprecedented feeling of emotion welled up in her heart, warm and tender.
At that moment, she felt as if all her tens of thousands of years of wasted time had been spent waiting for his appearance. The beautiful scenery paled in comparison, time stood still, and a single glance felt like an eternity.
Yun Yao was the first to withdraw from his affectionate embrace, placing one hand on her heart. It was a feeling she had never experienced before, as if she had lost something very important.
"Yun Yao?" Su Yuchen noticed Yun Yao's unusual behavior and quickly pulled the car over to the side of the road.
Yun Yao leaned back in her seat, her face pale and covered in cold sweat.
"I'll take you to the hospital." With that, Su Yuchen started the car.
"Su Yuchen, no need." Yun Yao placed her hand on Su Yuchen's arm and said weakly.
"It's an old problem, it'll get better with time." Yun Yao didn't want Su Yuchen to worry, so she used her remaining spiritual power to suppress the pain, and her complexion gradually returned to normal.
And so, the Rolls-Royce Phantom remained parked on the street for nearly an hour. Some reporters, having caught wind of the situation, gathered at a distance and snapped photos incessantly.
After Yun Yao had fully recovered, Su Yuchen decided to head back home.
"Aren't you going out?" Yun Yao asked.
“You’re not feeling well today, let’s go out tomorrow,” Su Yuchen replied.
Yun Yao was actually disappointed, but considering her physical condition, she didn't say anything more.
As soon as she got home, Yun Yao collapsed onto Su Yuchen's big bed, too lazy to even move a finger.
"Su Yuchen, my whole body aches." He lay on the bed, half asleep, muttering to himself.
Su Yuchen, who was guarding the bedside, felt heartbroken looking at Yun Yao's appearance. He reached out and touched her forehead, his expression slightly somber.
She has a fever.
Without thinking about anything else, Su Yuchen picked up his phone from the table and strode out.
……
Secluded Mountain.
Gu Jiuliang was studying the things Yun Yao left him day and night, so engrossed that he forgot to eat and sleep. Just when he was at a crucial moment, he was interrupted by a phone call.
Gu Jiuliang scratched his hair in frustration and kept cursing.
"Who the hell is this! I'm so angry! So angry..." Upon seeing the nickname on her phone, Gu Jiuliang instantly fell silent.
"what?"
“I’ll send a helicopter to pick you up. I want to see you at Tianzhu Huafu in an hour. Your consultation fee will be doubled.”
The tone of the command made Gu Jiuliang very unhappy. He was a renowned doctor in China, how could he listen to this brat's orders?
"Su Yuchen, I'm your elder. Don't you know how to respect the elderly and care for the young? I'm not going!" He said, about to hang up the phone.
"Yun Yao is in trouble."
There was a pause for a second on the other end, then a rustling sound was heard, presumably someone was getting dressed.
"Where's your helicopter? Why isn't it here yet?"
Su Yuchen: "..."
"It'll be here soon, it's on its way."
……
When Gu Jiuliang appeared at Tianzhu Huafu as promised, he fell into deep thought again, pointed to Yun Yao on the bed, and asked helplessly, "Isn't this just a common cold for her?"
For a mere cold, they actually summoned this legendary Chinese doctor. Isn't that making a mountain out of a molehill?
“She shouldn’t have caught a cold,” Su Yuchen said directly.
He had seen people whose skin was impervious to bullets, so how could someone as extraordinary as her catch a cold?
Gu Jiuliang looked at Su Yuchen with great puzzlement. It's perfectly normal for people to be sick and in pain, so why would he say something so absolute?
"Alright, don't worry, I'll go get some medicine and make sure she takes it on time," Gu Jiuliang instructed.
At Su Yuchen's insistence, Gu Jiuliang moved into Tianzhu Huafu in order to better take care of Yun Yao until she fully recovered.
However, for three whole days, they waited for Yun Yao to wake up.
It was only then that Gu Jiuliang realized something was wrong, and he stayed by Yun Yao's side at all times, not daring to leave her for even a second.
"It's been three days already, and she still shows no signs of waking up?" Gu Jiuliang said with great concern.
Su Yuchen, looking haggard, stood at the foot of the bed, his eyes fixed on Yun Yao.
"Can't you find anything?" His voice was hoarse, as if he hadn't had rice or water for days.
Gu Jiuliang shook his head and let out a sigh.
"Her fever has subsided, and she seems perfectly fine, but for some reason, she just won't wake up."
Since Gu Jiuliang has said so, there really is no other way.
Su Yuchen suddenly thought of something, and his eyes lit up for a moment.
"You stay here and watch over her, I'll be back soon."
Before Gu Jiuliang could ask him where he was going, Su Yuchen had already left in a hurry.
Those who were in such a hurry didn't notice a Taoist priest in a gray cotton robe sitting in the corner of the villa.
Seeing Su Yuchen leave, the old Taoist priest pushed up his round black sunglasses, stood up with his cane, patted the snow off his body, and looked at the villa in front of him with a smile on his lips.
Just as he was about to set off, his shoulder suddenly felt heavy.
The old Taoist priest's expression changed instantly, but after a moment, he returned to his previous charlatan-like demeanor.
"Fortune telling, the divine divination of heaven and earth, asking about joy and sorrow, about past lives and future lives. Dear one, what would you like to ask?" The old Taoist priest slowly turned around, tapping his cane continuously.
"Since you can communicate with ghosts and spirits, why didn't you foresee that today is not a good day for you to come out and swindle, as it could easily lead to...bloodshed?" The tall, upright figure leaned close to the old Taoist's ear, his voice as ghostly as a ghost.
The old Taoist priest was slightly taken aback, then hurriedly turned around, his cane tapping the ground.
Suddenly, a long, slender, fair hand rested on his shoulder.
"Since we're going to have our fortunes told, we should sit down and do a proper reading."
After saying that, the two disappeared from the spot...
