Chapter 835 - 816: The Way You Frown Isn’t Pleasant
Qin Mobai escorted Doctor Wei out, and halfway there, Doctor Wei suddenly stopped in his tracks and said to Qin Mobai, "When I took her pulse just now, I felt something abnormal. When you have time, take her to the hospital for a check-up. After all, traditional Chinese medicine is a long process, and Western medicine’s full-body check-up can detect more conditions that Chinese medicine might miss."
Upon hearing Doctor Wei’s words, Qin Mobai felt that Lou Xi’s health was already quite poor, and taking her to the hospital for a check-up was an urgent matter.
"I understand." Qin Mobai said heavily.
After sending Doctor Wei off, Qin Mobai sent someone to get the herbal medicine from him, and after it was brought back, he brewed it for Lou Xi to drink.
When Lu Li saw Qin Mobai’s very serious expression, he knew that Lou Xi’s health was not good.
He was worried that it was his own fault for making Lou Xi sick, so he didn’t dare to speak to Qin Mobai.
"Brother, how is sister-in-law?" Lu Li would only call Qin Mobai "brother" when he knew he had made a mistake, and usually, when Qin Mobai heard this term, he would forgive Lu Li’s actions.
But now, Lu Li felt that Qin Mobai might not be so easygoing. Should he run, or should he run?
Qin Mobai turned his head to look at Lu Li, his deep gaze falling on him like a blade.
Lu Li trembled all over.
"I didn’t know sister-in-law cared so much about Bai Lu’s matter. If I’d known, I definitely wouldn’t have come today! And wasn’t it you who called me over? If you had told me earlier it was about Bai Lu, I wouldn’t have come!"
Qin Mobai listened to Lu Li’s explanation and asked, "So, are you saying this is my fault?"
"..." Lu Li was just about to say, "If not you, then who?" but immediately held his tongue. If he said that, he might not get out of here today.
Seeing Lu Li’s helpless appearance, Qin Mobai no longer had the heart to argue with him.
"It’s not your fault, Lou Xi’s health was already weak. She might just be too tired," Qin Mobai said calmly, "Help me arrange hospital appointments, and once she feels a bit better, take her for a full-body check-up. Who knows what Xi Siwei did to her during those days he had her tied up."
To make a lively young girl so pale and lying in bed, even Uncle Wei said, what poor condition must this child’s health be in!
How could Qin Mobai let this go?
Hearing that it wasn’t related to him, Lu Li felt his whole heart settle down, thinking as long as it wasn’t his fault, he’d be fine. He still wanted to live a few more years, wanted to find Bai Lu, and wanted to apologize to her...
While Lu Li was thinking, Qin Mobai had already started going upstairs, and watching his back, Lu Li felt that this man seemed very heavy-hearted.
Indeed, Qin Mobai was deeply troubled now.
What did Xi Siwei do to Lou Xi earlier to make her health deteriorate so much?
Nervous exhaustion, over-worrying, restless mind...
Qin Mobai opened the door to the room and saw Lou Xi curled up small on the bed, her breathing so faint that Qin Mobai could barely hear it.
Just like last night, Qin Mobai felt like Lou Xi might just sleep away like this.
He walked over, placed his hand near Lou Xi’s nose, and only after feeling her breath did he relax.
He breathed deeply, his eyes full of concern and care for Lou Xi.
It was unclear how much time passed before Lou Xi slowly awoke from her sleep, looking at Qin Mobai by the bed.
"You look bad when you frown."
