Yang Ruxin lay there watching Gu Qingheng, and before she knew it, she had fallen asleep. It was not until she heard voices outside that she hurriedly opened her eyes, only to find that Gu Qingheng was still asleep. The previous poisoning and recent treatment must have greatly exhausted his body.
She got up to loosen her stiff body, then slowly left the room.
In the courtyard, Gu Yao was discussing the situation of the Yang Family’s old house with the Feng Family. Upon seeing Yang Ruxin come out, they both turned their gaze toward her.
"Gu Qingheng is fine, he’s asleep," Yang Ruxin said, rubbing her neck, "Aunt Feng, heat some water later. When he wakes up, give him a wipe down. He sweated a lot just now."
Gu Yao and the Feng Family exchanged glances, and then their eyes filled with gossip when they looked at her again.
"What are you thinking?" Yang Ruxin instantly understood the meaning in their eyes, which left her somewhat speechless, "It was very painful during his treatment just now..."
"It’s okay," Aunt Feng quickly smiled, "I’ll go heat the water right away." With that, she turned and headed for the kitchen.
Gu Yao touched his nose with a slightly embarrassed gesture, "That..."
At that moment, noises came from the room.
Yang Ruxin didn’t wait to hear what Gu Yao had to say and hurried back into the room.
This left Gu Yao feeling rather frustrated. Should he go in or not?
Gu Qingheng had woken up. Although he still looked a bit weak, his spirit seemed quite good.
"Xinxin, let Ayao come in and help me change clothes," Gu Qingheng said, feeling sticky and uncomfortable, "You..."
"I won’t look," Yang Ruxin said with a chuckle, "I need to go change my clothes, too." She then turned and left, also wanting to find out more about the old house.
Gu Qingheng’s face turned slightly red. He actually did want her to see, but... never mind, there would be chances in the future.
Yang Ruxin went back to her own home to bathe and change. Led by Sanni, a group of young ones managed to learn seven-tenths of the goings-on after Yang Ruxin’s return, and they kept talking about it all through dinner.
Next door, Gu Yao was recounting the situation of the old house to Gu Qingheng.
After dinner, Gu Qingheng asked Gu Yao to call Yang Ruxin over.
"You know about the old house, don’t you?" Gu Qingheng didn’t beat around the bush and got straight to the point.
"I do," Yang Ruxin laughed with schadenfreude, "With uncle’s move, the old house is now completely lively. However, the most worried must be the second branch..."
Gu Qingheng nodded. Yang Rusong was soon to be dealt a blow, and with such a drama at home, it was definitely... But he wasn’t interested in the mess at the Yang Family’s old house; instead, he looked at Yang Ruxin, "I want to ask you about that tiger..." If there wasn’t really a tiger, how could those two have run out in panic? He had heard that Xinxin had rushed over the moment she heard a cry. The only explanation was that the tiger was related to her, "Of course, if you don’t want to say..."
"There’s nothing I need to hide from you. Trust is mutual. There actually is a tiger, the mother of Xiaobai," Yang Ruxin did not intend to conceal anything from Gu Qingheng and leaned closer to his ear, "But it was injured, and I put it there to recover. I didn’t expect... Those two are really something. They could tumble anywhere, but they had to go there..."
"Xiaobai is actually a tiger?" Gu Qingheng’s unfocused eyes suddenly widened. This girl not only raised venomous snakes, but now she even kept a tiger?
