Finally, Zhou Ying scanned the remaining areas. Aside from a few drought- stricken regions, everything seemed normal.
She exited her inters.p.a.ce and tidied up before heading to the kitchen. There, she made a pot of chicken soup, skimmed the fat, and fed a large bowl to Gu Chengrui.
As a precaution, she changed his clothes and put on an adult diaper retrieved from the storage before laying down with him for the night.
The next morning, Zhou Ying changed the soiled diaper by burning it in her inters.p.a.ce and gave him a basic wash before putting on a fresh diaper.
By the time she finished, dawn had broken.
She quickly showered and changed inside her inters.p.a.ce before stepping back out. After breakfast, she fed Gu Chengrui some rice soup again.
Gu Chengxi entered then, asking, “Sister-in-law, any unusual behavior from Chengrui yesterday?”
“No, everything’s the same,” Zhou Ying replied.
Gu Chengxi checked on Gu Chengrui. “He’s alright, just a little dehydrated. Keep him hydrated.”
“Understood,” Zhou Ying acknowledged.
“I’ll inform Big Brother Yifan,” Gu Chengxi said before leaving.
The morning was filled with visitors seeking updates.
Concerned ones were received, and others were politely dismissed.
This constant disruption frustrated Zhou Ying. She instructed Niu Fugui to restrict entry to familiar faces or someone bearing good news only.
Caring for Gu Chengrui, especially wiping him down in the summer heat to prevent rashes, became a full-time job.
Evening arrived, and with Gu Chengrui still asleep, Zhou Ying’s anxiety grew.
Entering his dreams with her divine sense proved futile.
Just then, Niu Fugui rushed in. “Madam, Old Master He is here. He wishes to see Master Gu. But…” He hesitated.
“Master He, the Third Prince’s grandfather?” Zhou Ying asked, surprised.
Niu Fugui mumbled, “I’m worried he might spread bad news if denied…”
Zhou Ying sighed. “Let him in. But move Master Gu to the west room first.” She didn’t want him in the bedroom.
She went to welcome Lord He, leading him inside after cleaning the west room.
“Thankyou for visiting, Lord He,” Zhou Ying said, offering tea. “We appreciate you taking the time.”
“You’re too kind, Furen. Marquis Gu is a role model to many. It’s only right,” Lord He replied before inquiring about Gu Chengrui’s condition.
“He seems healthy, just unconscious,” Zhou Ying explained. “Would you like to see him?”
“Please,” Lord He requested. Zhou Ying led him to the west room, her divine sense discreetly monitoring his every move.
“This is a cool room,” Lord He commented upon entering. He examined Gu Chengrui, noting his lack of visible illness aside from unconsciousness.
“He does look remarkably healthy,” Lord He observed.
