Chapter 57 - Injured, Met Gu An Again
Chapter 57: Injured, Met Gu An Again
Su Yan looked at Leng Shuang, who was neither red nor out of breath with admiration.
Su Yan’s steps became slower and slower, and her breathing became heavier and heavier.
She tripped over a stone and fell forward.
Su Yan closed her eyes in fear. She was about to hit the ground.
Leng Shuang reached just in time and held her up from behind.
Despite not falling to the ground, she tripped and sprained her ankle.
The pain made Su Yan break out in cold sweat.
“Princess Consort!” Chu Tao cried out in shock.
Leng Shuang felt sorry and frowned.
Su Yan endured the pain and laughed, “It’s alright.”
At this moment, An Yi came forward, “What happened?”
Seeing that Su Yan was injured, he rushed over.
He reached out and wanted to carry Su Yan to the doctor. However, he hesitated and asked Leng Shuang to help.
Leng Shuang carried Su Yan in her hands.
She carried Su Yan without any hustle.
An Yi was about to walk to the room. Then, he stopped and said, “Go and see Doctor An.”
Leng Shuang followed suit.
Su Yan was in Leng Shuang’s arms. When she heard about Doctor An, her eyes blinked.
Before this, she was worried that she would not meet Gu An. Now, it was just nice.
Suddenly, she felt like her foot did not hurt anymore.
Gu An lived in a relatively remote place. She rarely had visitors on usual days.
Out of a sudden, he heard the noise of chaotic footsteps.
Gu An walked out when the visitors had just arrived.
She was still dressed in white. Her footsteps were slow, and her expression was cold.
She looked like a goddess walking out from the portraits.
No matter how many times they met, Gu An gave out a calming feeling every time.
An Yi was the first to speak, “Doctor An, the Princess Consort is injured.”
Gu An looked at Su Yan, who was already the Princess Consort and paused for a moment.
“Come in,” she said faintly.
They entered the house and placed Su Yan on the soft couch.
Su Yan looked at Gu An closely, but neither of them spoke.
Gu An acted as if she did not know Su Yan. She reached out to examine Su Yan’s injuries. Then, she applied some medicine and put on a bandage.
After finishing the series of procedures, Gu An stood up and walked aside.
An Yi knew that Gu An meant to ask them to leave.
He nodded and said to Leng Shuang, “Send the Princess Consort back.”
Su Yan blocked Leng Shuang’s hand and said, “You guys can leave first. I have something to ask Doctor An.”
Gu An said calmly, “Okay.”
An Yi’s expression froze, but he stayed quiet since Gu An agreed.
After everyone else left, Su Yan looked at Gu An, not knowing what to say.
“Princess Consort, what do you want to ask?” Gu An looked at Su Yan who was lying on the soft couch.
Su Yan asked, “How… How is Guang Pingwang’s injury?”
Gu An’s expression became even more unfathomable.
She was already suspicious of Su Yan’s vague familiarity.
Looking at the injury on Su Yan’s foot, her eyes darkened. She suspected that Su Yan did it on purpose.
“How did Princess Consort know that I was helping the Lord? You should have known when you saw me last time, right?”
Gu An’s tone did not change, but Su Yan felt even colder.
Knowing that Gu An had misunderstood, she immediately replied, “I was the one who sent the Soul Revival Pill. Doctor An, I’m just worried about the Lord. If you need any help from the Su family, just let me know.”
Gu An was probably the only person in the entire Imperial Residence who knew about the Lord’s injuries.
If she wanted to find out about his condition, she had no choice but to ask Gu An.
Gu An stared into Su Yan’s eyes. The sincerity in Su Yan’s eyes made Gu An stunned for a while.
However, it was still not convincing to Gu An.
She replied coldly, “If there’s a need, I’ll go back and see you, Princess Consort.”
Su Yan lowered her head in disappointment.
Even after returning to her room, her thoughts were still running wild.
She had already given the Soul Revival Pill to Gu Ruoyun. Why was he not awake yet?
An Yi said that he needed some medicinal herbs.
When would I be able to find them?
As she thought about the future, she felt even more uncertain.
Time passed very quickly. In the blink of an eye, three days had passed.
