Almost Choked
Ye Mohan placed his attention on Su Jiujiu only to see the small fox not acting its normal way. He slightly furrowed his eyebrows, the eyes containing a glimpse of questioning.
If it was in the past, this small fox, the moment she had seen food, she would"ve impolitely started to eat heartily. Right?
How come right now she acted as though the food didn"t fit her appet.i.te?
Plus, on that face, her expression was quite strange. She seemed to be thinking about something scary.
This small fox, what is she afraid of?!
Or was it the words that he had exclaimed before that led the small fox to be scared?
Thinking to here, Ye Mohan"s gaze towards the small fox included a tint of the investigation.
He recalled to the words he exclaimed before and Ye Mohan was incomparably confused in his heart.
The words he announced before, he had just stated them casually. But this led the small fox to look as though there was a lot going on in her heart.
Could it be that the words he stared casually were the small fox"s secret?!
Could it be that this small fox really was a child disguised under the fox"s skin or transformed from a fox-spirit?
Pondering here, Ye Mohan looked at Su Jiujiu with a probing gaze.
Su Jiujiu who was going on a mental journey out to s.p.a.ce suddenly felt an intense and scorching hot gaze which landed on her.
After she felt this, Su Jiujiu immediately snapped out of her trance. Right after, she raised her head to see the man"s narrow and deep eyes.
The man"s eyes included a deep sense of probing. It was sharp like a knife which led Su Jiujiu"s heart to become numb. Right after, the scalp of her head felt like that. She trembled in fear.
Maybe it was due to guilty feeling or because the man"s eyes were too sharp, this led Su Jiujiu to be even more afraid. She couldn"t help to gulp her saliva down.
However, she forgot that she was eating a piece of chicken in her mouth. Therefore, a tragedy happened—
“Uh…”
She felt that something was stuck in her throat which led Su Jiujiu to widen her eyes. The two claws immediately covered the throat, wanting to dig the chicken meat out from her throat. However, right now, she was just a small fox. How could the claws be compared to the agileness of the fingers?!
She felt that the piece of chicken meat which was stuck in her throat couldn"t be swallowed or coughed out. This led Su Jiujiu to almost not be able to breathe due to this.
While Su Jiujiu was anxious and in fear, Ye Mohan who sat by the side suddenly saw as the small fox revealed a painful look. Not only that, she seemed to be digging through her throat for something. Just looking at that, he knew that this small thing had choked on something.
Seeing this, Ye Mohan was shocked in his heart. He immediately yelled at the people outside.
“Servants, quickly call for the imperial physician!”
“Yes!”
Hearing Ye Mohan"s frantic yell, the servants who served outside immediately hurriedly left to find the physician.
At this time, Ye Mohan watched the small fox"s busy expression and he was even more anxious.
He had no idea when the imperial physician would arrive either. If the imperial physician arrived and the small fox died from choking on the food, then what should he do?!
The moment he thought of the lively and comparably adorable fox might become a corpse who wasn"t lively anymore, Ye Mohan felt a sense of indescribable fl.u.s.tered feeling rising in his heart.
In the next moment, Ye Mohan didn"t care about anything else. In his mind, there was only one intention and that is, he definitely can"t let anything happen to the small fox!
Thinking to here, Ye Mohan immediately lifted his hand towards the small fox whose face was in pain.
“Don"t move, this w.a.n.g will dig the item out for you!”
“Uh…”
Hearing Ye Mohan"s words, Su Jiujiu who was originally anxious and fearful subconsciously shook her head.
Because she was afraid.
Now, she was almost unable to breathe. The feeling of death constantly attacked her. This led Su Jiujiu to be scared out of her wits. For some time, she didn"t know what to do!
While Su Jiujiu was trembling in fear, Ye Mohan stared at the small fox in front of him. After hearing the words, she anxiously shook her head. In her eyes, it actually contained a frenetic and helpless look.
That look seemed to be a lost and a terrified small child ah, letting people feel sympathetic from the bottom of their hearts.
He knew in his heart that this small fox was scared to death. Although Ye Mohan was anxious in his heart, the face held a calmed look. With a gentle voice:
“It"s okay, let this w.a.n.g dig out the food in your throat. Is that fine?” Ye Mohan opened his mouth, not noticing that the tone of his voice was warm.
Maybe it was the man"s voice which was overly gentle or that the man, himself, gave people a type of feeling that led them to feel peaceful. Slowly, the originally anxious Su Jiujiu felt that her frantic heart gradually calmed down.
Right after, she slowly opened her mouth to the man.
Seeing that the small fox was obediently cooperating with him, Ye Mohan"s narrow and deep eyes first sparkled for a second. Right after, he lowered his head to detailly examine the situation inside Su Jiujiu"s mouth.
Seeing the food that was stuck inside Su Jiujiu"s throat, Ye Mohan carefully lifted his slender fingers and placed it inside Su Jiujiu.
Right now, Su Jiujiu felt as though she was about to die from the lack of oxygen. The fear of death constantly attacked her, letting Su Jiujiu to almost cry out.
She lived once again, with great difficulty. Although she had crossed over to an unfamiliar period and onto a small fox"s body, it"s just that Su Jiujiu, this type of person, knew to be satisfied with what she had.
She had slowly adjusted to this as well, the fact that she was a small fox.
What was most important was that by her side, there was a handsome man who was also nice to herself. Therefore, she didn"t want to die so quickly.
Plus, this type of way of dying, really was losing faces. Wu, wu, wu—
While Su Jiujiu wanted to cry out loud despite that there were no tears, she suddenly felt that the food stuck in her throat was taken out by someone.
At that moment, the fresh air went back into her lungs.
This is the first time Su Jiujiu realized that oxygen was that important.
She took in mouthful and mouthfuls of air. Su Jiujiu still had lingering fears.
She recalled back how she was only a step away from death. Now that she thought about it, she was still alarmed.
She looked again at the man who wore red clothes. Right now, he was looking at her with a worried face.
“Are you okay?!”
The man opened his mouth and within the tone, there was a tint of worriedness.
In the next moment, the man seemed to have thought of something. He quickly turned his head around and shouted out.
“Where"s the imperial physician?! How come the imperial physician is still not here?”
“w.a.n.gye, the imperial physician is here!”
After Ye Mohan"s strict shout, the servants who were serving outside all shivered involuntarily.
After all, although their family"s master had always been cold and detached, this was the first time that he held such a serious and strict face!
It is obvious that this small fox, within their family"s master"s heart, was quite important!
