Chapter 1399 - Chapter 1399 Chapter 1198 Do You Feel Refreshed_1
Chapter 1399: Chapter 1198: Do You Feel Refreshed_1 Chapter 1399: Chapter 1198: Do You Feel Refreshed_1 Qiao Xiaomai couldn’t help but glance at the ten people standing in the middle of the courtyard, her expression somewhat indescribable.
She felt ashamed to have these elite pillars of the nation doing such menial tasks behind her.
“You can pick another ten people, and have them take shifts every twelve hours,” Ren Zhong added.
Qiao Xiaomai “…”
The reward she personally asked Yang Wenxiao for couldn’t be refused.
She sighed deeply and managed a strained smile, “His Excellency is so considerate.”
“Of course.”
“What about Tong Sanlang?” Qiao Xiaomai asked.
“He still hasn’t woken up.”
“He still hasn’t woken up?!” Qiao Xiaomai exclaimed, surprised.
“Mm-hmm, we’ve fed him medicine twice already. Miss Bei has been nowhere to be found, so I went to the military camp and called a military doctor over. The doctor said his pulse is still fairly stable; maybe he’ll wake up by tomorrow morning,” Ren Zhong explained.
Upon hearing this, Qiao Xiaomai frowned. Could he really be unconscious for so long?
“I’ll go take a look.” She entered the room and approached the bed. Using the candlelight, she examined Tong Sanlang’s complexion, then went to the table, poured a glass of water, replaced the water in the cup with Spiritual Spring water, and carefully fed it to Tong Sanlang.
Ren Zhong watched her movements, pursed his lips, and couldn’t help but ask, “Does it feel good to do this?”
“It does.” Qiao Xiaomai nodded.
What Bei Lingsu said today made perfect sense. In this relationship, she and Tong Sanlang were not on equal footing; she was forcing Tong Sanlang to consider the situation from her perspective.
Upon hearing this, Ren Zhong hesitated slightly before asking, “If he reforms, would you be willing to give him another chance?”
Qiao Xiaomai heard this but didn’t answer. She took a handkerchief from her bosom to wipe the water droplets from Tong Sanlang’s mouth, then stood up. “You go get some rest. I’ll take care of him.”
Her expression was very calm. Seeing this, Ren Zhong couldn’t help but sigh, “Then I’ll take my leave.”
Once Tong Sanlang wakes up, he should have a good talk with him.
Watching his figure disappear at the doorway, Qiao Xiaomai couldn’t help but wryly smile.
Reform?
What does reform mean? Does it mean that the next time the Zhang Family is kidnapped, he will take her with him to rescue the Zhang Family?
Without such a crisis, she wouldn’t trust Tong Sanlang’s mere verbal promises.
The body is the most honest after all. Even if Tong Sanlang now said he would choose to save her, she wouldn’t believe it.
Therefore, there was currently no solution to this problem.
Bei Lingsu had not returned all night. It was just dawn when she finally came back, this time carrying four heavy sacks. As soon as she appeared in the courtyard, she lay exhaustedly onto the sacks, gasping for breath, continuously crying out that she was dead tired.
Qiao Xiaomai had slept too much during the day and had hardly slept all night. Seeing her like this, she hurried over. “It couldn’t still be the black-hearted grass, could it?”
“No, no,” Bei Lingsu replied weakly, shaking her head. “Quick, get me a glass of water. I’m so hungry!”
Qiao Xiaomai rushed to the kitchen. The cooks had risen early and already prepared some breakfast. She carried a tray to Bei Lingsu.
Hungry and thirsty, Bei Lingsu cast aside her image and started eating directly with chopsticks.
Seeing her devouring the food, Qiao Xiaomai couldn’t help but advise, “Don’t pick so much next time. Pace yourself.”
Being skilled in martial arts, Bei Lingsu did not have much more strength than an average person. The four sacks together must have weighed about two hundred taels; it was too much for her to handle.
“I can’t, this stuff is life-saving,” Bei Lingsu shook her head.
“It’s not urgent at this moment.”
“No, it’s very urgent.” Bei Lingsu turned her head to look towards the military camp. “There’s going to be trouble.”
“What?” Qiao Xiaomai was startled.
“Call everyone to the military camp, and bring Young Master Tong as well. Remember, everyone from here, hurry,” Bei Lingsu urged while stuffing food into her mouth.
