1608 Wuxing 3
Lingyun put down the herbs and came to her.
She was still dressed in black, with a hat over her face. She looked as if she were living in a shadow.
Days pa.s.sed and Lingyun was almost totally detoxified.
Her face was almost recovered, but Lingyun still did not believe it herself. She did not dare look at herself, so every time she washed her face, she never looked at herself. She always put on the hat when she was done.
When she got there Gu Chaoyan adjusted the hat for her and said, “I was in the court because Elder Miss Zhao Dire needed to be detoxified. I gave her the antidote and even got some good things from Piaomiao Pavilion, for Xiu Jie to play with. Her problem could be solved within a few days, but it is always good to trick Piaomiao Pavilion to give us something. You drugged her to punish her, so I came to tell you what is going on.”
!!
Lingyun was extremely shocked, as she stared at Gu Chaoyan.
She was really shocked from head to foot.
She was shocked that Gu Chaoyan knew that the drug would only be visible for three more days.
And she was shocked and surprised that Gu Chaoyan would trick Piaomiao Pavilion to get something good, and that she would narrate the story as if everything was normal. How fun!
And she was shocked because Gu Chaoyan was respecting her. She detoxified her and asked her to serve her for five years. That meant that she was her servant, and she could do anything to her or about her, but she told her what was going on clearly. Even when she was the most valuable tool for Wuxing, he did not respect her like this.
Maybe… kindness came from someone’s bones.
Lingyun felt that she failed to meet good people throughout her life, but when she was about to die, she met someone who could be the suns.h.i.+ne of her life…
That should be her luck.
As she was thinking about this, Gu Chaoyan took out a bronze mirror and placed it in front of her. She asked thoughtfully, “You really don’t want to see what my medical skills have brought you?”
She did not care about her image. She really did not.
She had thought that her disfigured image would displease Wuxing, but at this moment, nothing mattered.
She was wearing the hat, not because she cared about what she looked like, she just did not want to frighten pa.s.sers-by.
Of course, she trusted Gu Chaoyan’s medical skills, so she removed the hat directly.
Lingyun was shocked when she saw herself in the bronze mirror.
What?! That was her?
Li Qing, who had been sundrying the herbs, was shocked too.
Dressed in black, Lingyun looked very beautiful. She was reflecting an aura as if a blade was radiating sweetness.
“How did this happen?” Lingyun mumbled.
She thought that she would become slightly better compared to before she got poisoned, but…
The air in the yard suddenly turned stiff, but at that moment, Sword One rushed in and said loudly, “Elder Miss, the order from the court says that there will be a banquet in the court soon and you need to attend it in three days.”
