A Foodie Transmigrated into the Palace Chapter 1526 - 1524: Something’s Not Quite Right Here
Previously on A Foodie Transmigrated into the Palace...
Chapter 1524
This woman is simply detestable.
He probably thinks he’s lived too long.
Zhao Qichen glanced at her irritably.
"Don’t worry, I’m not a big official, nor will I judge you guilty!"
Lin Siyin was incredibly excited, immediately expressing her gratitude.
"Sir, you are truly kind-hearted, truly a great person, Heaven will surely bless you!"
"Once you leave, I’ll light incense every day for you, praying for your well-being, grateful for your life-saving grace!"
Zhao Qichen’s face darkened, a huge piece of his heart suddenly sank.
"What? You plan to stay here slacking off once I’m gone?"
"My body hasn’t recovered yet, you must follow us for proper treatment, or you’d be ungrateful!"
Lin Siyin was somewhat puzzled by this.
"Sir!"
"I have never been ungrateful, your great kindness and virtue I will remember forever!"
"In the next life, I will repay you even if I become an ox or horse!"
Zhao Qichen’s face turned completely dark.
Sitting by, Xia Ruqing suddenly found it amusing.
’Others promise themselves, she offers to become cattle, hahaha... Looks like my son is going to get embarrassed!’
Sure enough, Zhao Qichen’s expression grew even darker.
He turned his head angrily and ignored her.
Lin Siyin was puzzled, turning to Xia Ruqing for help.
"Madam, what is the young master..."
"Don’t mind him, he might be tired, a bit of rest will do!"
Lin Siyin nodded understandingly.
’So he was tired!’
’She only knew kids would cry when they’re tired, didn’t expect grown-ups can also get cranky, tut tut tut! These rich young masters are truly pampered!’
...
The cave is not habitable, they must hurry back to town tonight.
Xia Ruqing was a bit worried.
"Husband, after taking the medicine, how are you feeling now? Can you walk?"
Zhao Junyao nodded calmly.
"Of course I can!"
With this, unexpectedly, he gave Lin Siyin a look of appreciation, then awkwardly praised.
"This young lady’s medicine is good, earlier... it was my misunderstanding!"
Lin Siyin quickly reassured him.
"Doctors are as empathetic as parents, it’s only expected, no need to be polite, I won’t take it to heart!"
After all, you paid generously...
Xia Ruqing felt relieved and sighed.
"That’s good, the carriage is at the foot of the mountain, let’s work together to help Chenchen down!"
"Try not to attract any attention!"
Lin Siyin was happy to help, Zhao Junyao also changed his view of her.
The three worked together, taking a full Shi Chen to descend the mountain and successfully helped Zhao Qichen onto the carriage.
The coachman was still there, as were the Hidden Guards around, so they were safe now.
Just about to set off.
Lin Siyin suddenly stepped back, pulling a prescription out of her sleeve.
"Madam!"
"This is a prescription I crafted based on what I’ve learned over the years!"
"Once back in town, make sure the young master takes his medicine on time!"
"If you don’t trust me, you can ask another doctor, but the young master’s health is too weak, he mustn’t miss his medications!"
"And the master’s medicine too mustn’t stop, his health can’t take it any longer!"
She earnestly advised.
Xia Ruqing instantly understood that she didn’t want to follow, and it couldn’t be forced.
She smiled in thanks, about to happily accept the prescription.
Unexpectedly, Chenchen suddenly started coughing violently.
"Cough cough! Give it back to her!"
"Mother, give it back to her! I don’t want her prescription!"
Zhao Qichen was furious.
As for why he’s angry, he couldn’t figure it out himself, he was just very angry.
"Ah?"
Xia Ruqing hesitated.
"Are you alright? She’s doing it with good intentions, she saved your life!"
"No, throw it out, I don’t want it!" His tone was ice cold.
Lin Siyin was puzzled.
She hadn’t offended him, a few days ago they were chatting happily, he even said if he got rescued, he’d thank her properly!
It wasn’t that she was yearning for the gratitude gift, she simply couldn’t grasp the reason!
This change is too quick!
Lin Siyin was a bit embarrassed.
So was Xia Ruqing, not knowing whether to keep or toss the prescription.
Tossing wasn’t an option, keeping it? Chenchen would most likely be agitated, what to do about it!
"Madam, you’d better return the prescription to me!"
"The young master’s status is esteemed, perhaps... he doesn’t need it!"
Her eyes were filled with disappointment.
Not only did Zhao Qichen feel a pang in his heart, even Xia Ruqing couldn’t bear to watch.
She fiercely glared at her son.
"You’re too much, the young lady has good intentions, even if you don’t appreciate it..."
She rambled on, finally laying down a statement.
"If you disagree, I’ll stop caring about you!"
Zhao Qichen, having been scolded by his mother, knew he was wrong and his anger subsided, but he couldn’t lose face, stubbornly said.
"If it’s well-intentioned, then why won’t she treat me?"
"Helping others should be thorough, has she been thorough?"
Zhao Junyao: "..." Which trait of this unreasonable character is inherited from whom?
Xia Ruqing: "..." Why am I a bit delighted suddenly? This blockhead is finally grasping some sense?
Lin Siyin: "..." What does he mean by this, does he think I haven’t treated him well?
But, haven’t I given the prescription? Just follow it and get the medicine and take it!
Really can’t understand what this young master is dissatisfied with.
...
In the end, it was Xia Ruqing who stepped in to ease things out.
"This young lady, the town hasn’t been peaceful lately, living alone in the mountains is quite unsafe!"
"Why not come with us to stay in town, so we can look out for each other!"
Lin Siyin wanted to refuse.
Zhao Qichen suddenly shot her a sharp glance, she shivered and dared not object.
Words slipped out uncontrollably.
"Yes! Thank you, Madam, for your kindness!"
"Siyin respectfully accepts your gracious offer!"
Zhao Qichen was finally satisfied, lying comfortably in the carriage with his eyes closed.
Xia Ruqing and Zhao Junyao exchanged a look, twitched the corners of their mouths, and said nothing more.
But Lin Siyin remained jittery.
She had a pile of questions she couldn’t figure out.
Why is this person completely different from before?
When he was injured, during the time she took care of him in the cave, his temperament was quite good!!
Why has he suddenly changed personality?
And... does he like her or not?
If he likes her, why speak so coldly, they know each other quite well, it’s a life-and-death friendship.
If he doesn’t like her, then why not let her leave smoothly? Insisting on dragging her back with them!
Can’t understand, can’t understand!
She clutched at her ill-fitting clothing, her gaze filled with confusion.
Xia Ruqing smiled as she approached, holding her hand, whispering together.
"Don’t mind him, sometimes my son... isn’t quite normal here!"
She pointed to her head.
Lin Siyin was initially shocked, then her expression turned understanding, finally gazing at Zhao Qichen with a look for the intellectually ungifted, filled with pity.
