Although they did not use the food sent over from the kitchen, the symptoms of Qin Nuo, Peaches and Ming Liu did not immediately improve. Although they were busy in the morning and were all in high spirits, the three of them would feel dizzy and would unknowingly fall asleep once they had some time to rest.
Qin Nuo did not know when Ling Yexuan had arrived nor did she hear any movements. However, the moment she opened his eyes, he saw a pair of beautiful yet gloomy eyes that startled her.
The imperial physician quickly came forward, bowed to Qin Nuo, and kneeled beside the bed to feel his pulse.
"Yes sir!" The imperial physician replied and backed out.
"Third brother, we can't just let this matter go like this!" "Hate is written all over Old Fifteen's face." Otherwise, there will be a second time! "
"That's right!" "The eighth brother immediately followed up." It was easy to dodge a spear, but hard to defend against an arrow in the dark! He must investigate this matter clearly in order to make those with ill intentions fear him. It's fortunate that the third Sister-in-Law knew better, otherwise she would have thought that you were the one who tried to kill her! "
Hearing the eighth brother's words, Ling Yexuan's expression suddenly became serious, and he instinctively glanced at Qin Nuo.
How could Qin Nuo not know that Ol 'Eight was hinting at Ling Yexuan on the surface but in reality, she was telling her that she was defending her third brother! She smiled and ignored Ling Yexuan, only casting a sidelong glance at Ol 'Eight.
"Don't worry!" My heart wasn't so dark, and I wasn't the kind of man who didn't know the difference between green and white, and I didn't suspect anyone. Everything had to be supported by evidence! If he made a random conclusion based on his hot head, he could not even handle the small matters at home. What could he do? Naturally, I am not someone who does great things, but at least I can do what I can to be as impartial as possible and not instinctively believe or question a single person. "
"Ha ha!" "Ol 'Eight laughed heartily." The fact that third Sister-in-Law could still joke around showed that there was no problem. This way, third brother will be at ease, and we will be! "
's face alternated between red and white after hearing Qin Nuo's words, and her heart couldn't help but burn with fury. This woman was truly despicable. If she didn't have the upper hand in everything, she would feel uncomfortable! What was even more despicable was that she was clearly ridiculing him, but what she said was the truth. Anyone who listened to her would feel that there was nothing wrong with what she said.
It was fortunate that Eighth Bro was smart enough to take up the conversation in time. Otherwise, he would really have been worried that he would leave in a huff.
"Fortunately, fifteenth brother found out about this matter in time. This king will definitely investigate it strictly and won't let anyone have the chance to take advantage of it!" Ling Yexuan said, and could not help but clench his fists.
Old Eighth had a saying that was absolutely correct. If this woman did not understand, she would definitely think that he was the one who did it!
Qin Nuo looked around, but she did not see Jade Peaches and Ming Liu, she guessed that these two girls had already been sent away by Ling Yexuan to some other place to rest. She did not laugh, and did not make a sound. There was only her and the three Ling brothers in the room, and even though she knew that Ling Yexuan was calling himself "This King" and that he was talking to her, she did not want to take his words.
Seeing the woman's indifferent face, Ling Yexuan didn't want to stay in the room any longer, so he suddenly stood up.
"Old Fifteen, stay here with your third Sister-in-Law. I'll send someone to bring her back later."
With that, Ling Yexuan walked out.
Eight looked at his third brother, who seemed to be in a bad mood, and shook his head and followed him. Before the two of them even reached the outside, they heard Qin Nuo's clear and cold voice sound out from behind them.
Ling Yexuan's body stiffened as he slowly turned his head around.
"What did you say?"
"Can you think about your sweetheart peacefully while you're here?" Ling Yexuan sneered.
Ling Yexuan's face instantly turned pale as he stared straight at Qin Nuo. His lips trembled slightly, but he could not say a single word.
"third Sister-in-Law!" shouted the eighth and fifteenth brothers in unison.
The eighth brother was about to die from anxiety!
Why is this third Sister-in-Law so stubborn!
Third brother heard Old Fifteen's words and didn't waste any time. He sent someone to get an imperial physician and hurried over. At that time, the third Sister-in-Law was still asleep, so the Third Brother ordered people to first look at Bi Tao and Ming Liu, and then ordered them to rest. Afterwards, the Third Brother sat by the side of the bed and looked at the third Sister-in-Law silently, not allowing anyone to speak out loud, so as to not wake her up.
It was his first time seeing how Third Brother could be so gentle and doting when he looked into the eyes of a woman. He also felt an indescribable heartache and regret.
Ying He and Qing Luo had long told him everything that had happened since the third Sister-in-Law was rushed to the Qinxin. Honestly speaking, he also felt that third brother was too impatient and impatient.
There were so many women by Third Brother's side, it was hard to say who sent them. For so many years, Third Brother's heart had been as clear as a mirror, but he was unmoved. In third brother's words, after sending them away, there would still be new ones. It would be better to stay and not worry about both him and the other. However, Third Brother had miscalculated when he was facing the third Sister-in-Law alone.
Some things are always the unsuspecting. Third brother had never thought that the slightest movement from the third Sister-in-Law would anger him! Even someone like him, who had never liked any woman before, could tell. Even that kid, Old Fifteen, could tell, but Third Brother didn't know.
"third Sister-in-Law …" Old Fifteen looked at Qin Nuo with her big eyes in anticipation. "Don't be angry, third brother …"
"I didn't say anything." Qin Nuo's voice was calm and steady without a single ripple, yet he was feeling extremely helpless in his heart. She said what was in her heart, okay? "Why does everyone feel that she's just speaking out of anger?" I'm not angry. I'm calm. I admit that the prince is very beautiful and charming. I'm sorry, I tried. I can't make myself like you! As for me, I have no way of showing false love to a person I don't like! "
"third Sister-in-Law …"
"Old Fifteen!" Eighth Brother suddenly shouted softly, preventing Old Fifteen from speaking any further, and he looked at Ling Yexuan once more. "Third brother!"
"Let's go!" Ling Yexuan no longer looked at Qin Nuo, and said simply. His voice was cold and indifferent without a trace of warmth. Only the eighth brother beside him could tell how much effort he had expended to say these three words.
Old Fifteen's eyes were filled with helplessness as he looked at Qin Nuo.
"third Sister-in-Law, you said that you aren't speaking words of anger, is that true?"
"Of course!" Qin Nuo replied calmly.
"I don't think so." As he spoke, he jumped down from the chair and walked over to Qin Nuo. third Sister-in-Law, do you believe me? Not only do I know you're angry, I also know why you're angry. "
Qin Nuo stared at Old Fifteen and did not say a word.
"However, if you don't laugh, I won't tell you!"
Qin Nuo rolled her eyes at Old Fifteen, but couldn't help but laugh. Facing such an adorable boy who liked to pretend to be serious, she could not help but laugh!
"Enough, Lu Li, stop messing around!" Qin Nuo said as she reached out her hand towards Old Fifteen. I really wasn't angry. It's true! "
"You're angry!" "It is rather interesting that Old Fifteen is so stubborn." You are arguing with Third Brother because he doesn't believe in you but believes in the concubine! "
Qin Nuo felt his heart thump, as if something knocked on it, and she immediately jumped erratically.
"Nonsense!" Qin Nuo pretended to be calm as she looked at Old Fifteen. You're just a kid, what do you know! "
"I'm not a child!" "Old Fifteen's face immediately reddened. third Sister-in-Law, if you continue to say that I am a child, I will ignore you! "
"Good! You are not a child. " Qin Nuo could not help but laugh. Then are you a reborn, or a transmigrated? Otherwise, why would the two merchants be so high? "She doesn't even look eight years old!"
"What and what?" "What?" A look of confusion appeared in Old Fifteen's eyes. third Sister-in-Law, you can talk weird sometimes! I don't understand. "
Qin Nuo stared at Old Fifteen for a while. Fine! She was certain that this little boy was neither reborn nor transmigrated. It could only be said that the children of ancient times could not be underestimated, and that they understood too much.
"That's not right!" "Ol 'Fifteen suddenly came to his senses." You don't want to hear the truth? "That's why I purposely said there's no need to!"
Qin Nuo was completely convinced! This ghost!
"Even if you don't like it I still have to say it, hmph!"
Old Fifteen raised his little face high up, looking extremely adorable.
"You knew that you were poisoned, so you must have felt that concubine had at least suspected her. But today, I heard that you weren't poisoned after concubine entered the manor. Third brother did not look surprised at all, which meant that from the beginning, he had never suspected the concubine! You will feel sad! Because Third Brother knew that you have met with the Eleventh Uncle, and even without asking, he already recognized that you were sent by the Eleventh Uncle. That is to say, he has always believed in the concubine, but does not believe in you! "
As he spoke, he moved closer to Qin Nuo and began rubbing his hands on Qin Nuo's arms again, softly speaking.
"third Sister-in-Law, have you ever heard of a saying that 'care causes chaos'!"
Qin Nuo's eyes widened, she was extremely shocked. She instantly felt inferior!
"Am I wrong?" Old Fifteen blinked his eyes, carefully observing Qin Nuo's expression.
Qin Nuo slightly frowned, but did not speak.
She really didn't know if what Old Fifteen said was right or not. She had never asked about her heart in detail. She had always believed that she was rational and calm enough. She would never fall in love with a man with so many women, much less injure herself! However, she had never really been in a relationship before. All the great truths regarding relationships were just talk on paper.
