C168

Yue Yang gave Mu Yunyao a deep look, and a myriad of emotions flashed past his eyes. However, when he looked closely, he could not find any trace of emotion as he turned around and left in large strides.

Mu Yunyao closed the window and sheathed the dagger on the table back into its scabbard. With a calm expression, she placed it under her pillow and took off her outer robes to lie on the bed.

Half an hour later, she opened her sleepless eyes, put on her shoes, pulled on her cloak, and opened the door. She took out the lamp that had fallen in the snow.

It had been snowing heavily for the past two days. Although the ice lamp was fragile, it didn't hurt even if it fell on the ground. She put the snow aside and placed the ice lamp by the window, finding a short candle to ignite it.

Under the illumination of the candle flame, the crystal clear light became even more dazzling, without a single flaw.

Because she was afraid that the ice lamp would be melted by the warmth in the room, Mu Yunyao intentionally opened up half of the window. Currently, she was sitting by the window, attentively looking at the ice lamp.

The cold wind blew in from the window, causing her body to feel cold and her thoughts to become clearer.

The moment she saw Yue Yang take out the ice lamp, all the details that she had previously memorized gushed into her mind, causing her to instantly come to a conclusion: Yue Yang had fallen for her!

This conclusion caused her to be extremely shocked and she almost lost her composure in front of Wang Yue, which was why she quickly chased him away.

She had never liked anyone before, even if it was in her previous life that she entered the Jin Clan as a concubine, it was only to ensure her survival. In this life, she was filled with hatred, and she had never once considered the relationship between a man and a woman.

Not to mention the difference in status between the two of them, her death in her previous life had even been implicated with Yue Yang. Until this matter was investigated thoroughly, she wouldn't be able to get along with him without any grudges, let alone anything else.

Even if she thought about it carefully now, that time, Yue Yang must have been tricked by someone, but she was still unable to completely get over it!

In this life, she only wanted to protect her mother and live a carefree life after taking revenge. She didn't want to get involved with any other nobles. As her thoughts settled, Mu Yunyao reached out to stroke the head of the ice sculpture. Her fingertip was completely cold and the chill seemed to be able to spread from her arm all the way to the bottom of her heart, causing her eyes to turn cold as well. "A moment of longing, how could it last long?

"In my heart …"

Withdrawing her finger, Mu Yunyao laid back on the bed. She did her best to suppress the mixed emotions in her heart and fell asleep in a daze. It was unknown how long she slept and she only felt a burning pain in her body, as if someone had placed it on top of a fire.

"Yao'er, Yao'er, are you awake?" Su Qing's face was filled with fatigue and worry. When she heard Mu Yunyao's movements, she immediately called out to her softly.

Mu Yunyao struggled to open her eyes and felt a splitting headache: "Mother …" The moment he opened his mouth, he realized that his throat was hoarse and he was in excruciating pain, causing him to furrow his brows even tighter.

Su Qing hurriedly helped her up. She was both anxious and distressed as she said, "Child, no matter how much you sleep, you still don't know how to close the window. If it wasn't for mother seeing you still awake in the morning, you'd probably be even more seriously ill!"

Mu Yunyao was a little dazed. "What happened to me?"

"I've already prescribed the medicine. The brocade orchids are already simmering, so you should get up and drink some porridge first. After drinking the medicine, you should lie down on the bed and rest."

Mu Yunyao raised her head to look at the window. The window was tightly shut, and there was no sign of the Ice Lamp. "Mother, that window …"

"Did you open it yourself?" Su Qing looked at her and helplessly pulled at the corner of her blanket. "You can't do this from now on. Even if the room feels hot and stuffy, close the door after a short while. You can't keep sleeping with the bed open."

Mu Yunyao nodded. "I understand, mother."

She blinked her misty eyes, and her cheeks blushed slightly. Su Qing couldn't bear to continue talking about her. "Sleep for a while longer. Mother will go down and see if the porridge is done."

Mu Yunyao obediently lied down before falling asleep again in a daze.

She didn't get sick very often, but once she got sick, it was extremely difficult for her to get well. She would get sick at intervals, but no matter how many medicines she took, it was useless. She could only wait for her illness to pass. Who would have thought that after being fine for more than a year, she would actually fall ill at the start of the new year?

When he woke up again, Jinlan and Jinqiao were guarding by his side.

"Miss, it's all the servants' fault, I played too late last night, so I didn't come to stand guard for Miss."

After waking up from her sleep, Mu Yunyao more or less regained some energy. "No wonder you two. I told you earlier that I don't like having people guarding outside at night. By the way, when you came over this morning, did you see anything by the window? "

The two of them shook their heads, "I didn't see anything. Did Miss lose something?"

"Last night on a whim, I gathered a snowman and placed it by the window. It must have melted."

"That's highly likely. When this servant came over this morning, I saw that there was water stains by the window." Mu Yunyao didn't say anything else. After eating the porridge and resting for a moment, she drank another bowl of medicine before lying down to continue resting. Every time she was sick, she was especially addicted to sleep. This time, she slept until the sky turned dark before she woke up. Her body was covered with a thick quilt, causing her to sweat profusely. At this moment, she felt as if her body had been covered by a thick blanket …

External discomfort.

"Jin Lan?"

There was no response from anyone outside the room after she called out. Mu Yunyao slightly frowned, then pulled back her blanket and got out of bed.

"Don't you know that you're sick? You still dare to come down at this time? " The cold voice carried a trace of concern, causing Mu Yunyao to freeze on the spot.

"Master Four, why are you here? Where are Jin Lan and the rest?"

"How did you get sick?" Yue Yang didn't reply to Mu Yunyao's words. Instead, he looked at her slightly haggard appearance and the discomfort in his heart deepened.

Mu Yunyao smiled and spoke in an indifferent tone, "How can a person not get sick when they eat five grains and five grains? "It's just that I was especially unlucky and actually fell ill during the new year."

Yue Yang scrutinized her, his eyes revealing an unfathomable look: "Where is the ice lamp I gave you last night?"

Mu Yunyao's smile did not change, "Didn't Fourth Master throw it away? Why did you come and ask me? If you really want to go down the stairs and search, maybe you can find it. "

"Rest well first. After you've recovered, then you can think about other things."

"Thank you for your concern, Master Four."

Yue Yang nodded and turned to leave.

Not long after he left, Jin Lan came in with a bowl of medicine. "Miss, you've woken up. I just went to bring the medicine. Coincidentally, Madam called Jin Lan to the front courtyard for some matters, so she didn't stay in front of you."

"I'm fine, I'm sweating all over, and it feels really bad. Can you help me prepare some hot water? I want to wash up a bit."

"How can we do that? Young miss, you have caught a cold, you can't afford to get any more cold right now! "" No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Jin Lan hurriedly shook her head.

"Don't worry, I know how to do medicine. You should prepare hot water so that it won't catch cold." That won't do! " Su Qing walked in and intentionally gave him a cold look. "Mother can't stand it for a while, so you played around with it. How can a person who has caught a cold still want to take a bath?"
