General, the lady escaped again

Chapter 692 Careful Care (2)

Mother Ji nodded and followed the shopkeeper to Bai Yichen's door, but heard a sound inside the room.

"Bai Yichen, it's me, open the door." Ji Xiaomu called softly.

The sound in the house suddenly stopped, and a figure slowly came to the door, but hesitated and did not open it.

Ji Xiaomu and the shopkeeper looked at each other and waited for a while. Then the person behind the door seemed to have made a decision and slowly opened the door.

Ji Xiaomu looked at the person who opened the door and paused. The person who opened the door turned out to be Hu Xiaoxiong.

Ji Xiaomu and the shopkeeper looked at each other again, and they both thought silently in their hearts.

Hu Xiaoxiong succeeded in taking down Bai Yichen? Did she succeed in taking down Bai Yichen?

"Madam." Hu Xiaoxiong said embarrassedly, "I wanted to come over last night to make it clear to him that I would not bother him anymore, but I found that Bai Yichen did not respond. I wanted to leave, but I heard him calling out something. I walked over and found that he had a high fever."

"So you took care of him all night without sleeping?" Ji Xiaomu asked when she saw the dark circles and fatigue under Hu Xiaoxiong's eyes.

Hu Xiaoxiong nodded. "I found a bathtub in the room. He must have fallen asleep while taking the medicinal bath, which caused him to catch a cold and have a fever! I saw some bruises on his body, and he was confused due to the fever and was talking nonsense."

"I originally wanted to find someone to come and take care of him, but he held my hand and refused to let go, and kept calling for his mother, so I had to stay and take care of him," Hu Xiaoxiong explained.

It wasn't that she didn't want to leave on purpose, it was that Bai Yichen kept holding her hand and refused to let go. She couldn't break free, but she didn't dare to use too much force for fear of hurting him.

"Thank you, Miss Hu." The shopkeeper bowed to Hu Xiaoxiong, then went downstairs to call for a doctor.

After the shopkeeper left, Hu Xiaoxiong came up to Ji Xiaowu. "Madam, can I ask you for a favor?"

"What's the matter?" Ji Xiaomu asked curiously.

"Can you just pretend that you are taking care of him? Just pretend that I didn't come?" Hu Xiaoxiong looked at Ji Xiaomu and said in a low voice.

"Why don't you let him know that you took care of him all night?" Ji Xiaomu looked at Hu Xiaoxiong in confusion. "Isn't this a good opportunity for you to show off?"

"Madam, I've thought it through. He has been avoiding me. I know he doesn't like me, and I don't want to force him to like me. I really can't force him. I wanted to come over and talk to him clearly last night, but I found out that he had a high fever and was confused, so I stayed to take care of him." Hu Xiaoxiong said.

"I don't want to threaten him with this or to impress him into being with me, and I have decided not to bother him anymore." Hu Xiaoxiong's words startled Ji Xiaomu. "Rather than this, I would rather he not know that I took care of him, so that I can laugh it off when I talk about it later."

"Don't you want to marry him?" Ji Xiaomu looked at Hu Xiaoxiong and sighed.

"Seeing how you and the general get along with each other and how happy you are in love with each other, I truly understand that love cannot be forced. If he doesn't like someone, it's useless for me to force him," said Hu Xiaoxiong.

"Madam, I know you are a good person. Please promise me, okay?" Hu Xiaoxiong looked at Ji Xiaomu. Ji Xiaomu saw the seriousness in her eyes and knew that she really thought so.

He sighed and nodded. "I promise I won't tell him."

She just said that she wouldn't tell it, and she couldn't control whether the shopkeeper told it or not, hehe.

Hu Xiaoxiong chuckled and bowed to Ji Xiaomu, then walked to the window, jumped up and disappeared out of the window.
