Chapter 185 Xiaokai's Invitation



Chapter 185 Xiaokai's Invitation

"Qingzhu, you little fool, you actually squatted at my door silently for a whole night because you were worried about me." Jiang Yimo looked at her, her heart full of heartache and helplessness, with tears of emotion flashing in her eyes, and said softly, "I'm back, you should go back to your room and go to sleep, if you delay any longer, it will be dawn."

After hearing this, Qingzhu nodded quickly, "Yeah!" There was a hint of joy in her voice. As long as she saw her young lady returning safely, her heart was filled with peace of mind.

Watching Qingzhu's figure gradually go away, Jiang Yimo felt a warm current in her heart. She knew that she was lucky to have a loyal maid like Qingzhu by her side.

Qingzhu returned to her room and fell on the bed. Her tired body was immediately surrounded by the soft bed. She closed her eyes and felt the rare tranquility.

After a short rest, she slipped back into the space. In her space, she could relax herself to her heart's content and wash away all her fatigue.

She walked into the bathroom, and the hot water splashed over her body, as if all her hard work had been washed away by the water. She washed herself carefully, feeling the comfort brought by cleanliness.

After washing up, Jiang Yimo lay on the comfortable big bed. She could finally have a good sleep.

Tonight, she was busy almost the entire night and was really tired, but when she thought of Qingzhu guarding the door, her heart was filled with warmth.

Although it is urgent to research the antidote for Xiao Kai, this matter cannot be rushed.

Now I should have a good sleep first.

But tonight, Feng Wuhen seemed to have a lot of knots in his heart, and did not run to Wutong Courtyard to squeeze into bed with her as usual.

After he and Jiang Yimo came back, he glanced at Xiaokai, his eyes full of love and worry, and then silently returned to his study.

In the study, he sat quietly for a while, picked up the pen and wrote the letter, each stroke was filled with deep emotion. After finishing, he folded the letter carefully, as if it was his most precious treasure.

"Leng Mei, please arrange a reliable person to secretly deliver this letter to General Gu in Yuanzhou." Feng Wuhen's voice was firm and resolute.

"Yes, Your Highness!" Leng Mei took the letter from Feng Wuhen's hand and could feel the weight of the letter. He knew that the letter was of great importance, so he turned around and left immediately.

The next day, the sunrise was picturesque.

Jiang Yimo got up early as usual, and after finishing her morning exercises, she returned to her room to wash up. Because she was thinking about Xiaokai, she didn't have time to eat breakfast and hurried to see him.

When she came to Xiaokai's yard, she unexpectedly found that Xiaokai had woken up.

At this moment, Xiaokai was leaning quietly against a tree in the yard, his eyes empty, as if lost in his own thoughts.

Jiang Yimo walked up to him and called Xiaokai's name softly three times, but Xiaokai didn't respond at all.

So, she patted his shoulder helplessly, and then Xiao Kai turned around as if waking up from a dream.

"Sister Jiang... Sister Jiang... Xiaokai was sorry for you last...last night." Xiaokai's voice was filled with guilt, and his eyes revealed a hint of pain and self-blame.

Jiang Yimo smiled and comforted him: "I know, Xiaokai. You had an attack of the corpse poison last night, which is why you lost control like that. The prince and I won't blame you, so don't take it too seriously."

Her tone was gentle yet firm, which made Xiao Kai feel a little relieved.

Tears flashed in Xiao Kai's eyes. He looked at Jiang Yimo gratefully: "But... I still hurt you. I really feel guilty."

Jiang Yimo gently stroked Xiaokai's head: "Xiaokai, you didn't mean it. Besides, aren't you fine now? We all care about you and hope you can get better soon."

Her eyes were full of concern and love.

Xiao Kai nodded slightly, tears rolling down his cheeks: "Thank you Sister Jiang, I will try my best to control myself and won't let you worry anymore."

Jiang Yimo gave him an encouraging smile: "I believe in you, Xiaokai. We will get through this difficult time together." Her eyes revealed a firm belief.

At that moment, the feelings between Jiang Yimo and Xiaokai deepened, but Jiang Yimo decided not to tell him about his life experience. She planned to wait until everything was certain before telling him about his life experience.

As for the corpse poison in Xiao Kai's body, Jiang Yimo's eyes revealed a trace of worry. She knew the complexity of the corpse poison, so she wanted to draw some of Xiao Kai's blood for testing, so as to analyze the poison of the corpse poison and then prepare an antidote.

"Xiao Kai, you haven't had breakfast yet." Jiang Yimo asked with concern.

Xiaokai shook his head silently.

"That's great. Sister Jiang wants to take some of your blood to study the corpse poison in your body."

Unexpectedly, Xiao Kai's answer was straightforward and straightforward, without even a frown, as if to tell Jiang Yimo of his strength and trust. He stretched out his hand directly in front of Jiang Yimo, his eyes revealing his complete trust in her, "Sister, you take it."

Seeing him so straightforward, Jiang Yimo was moved. She quickly took out the blood drawing tool from her small bag and carefully took a small tube of Xiaokai's blood. Every action was full of love and care. She hoped that this little bit of blood could bring hope of an antidote to Xiaokai.

After taking his blood, Jiang Yimo originally wanted to ask him if he remembered who had given him the corpse poison.

But Xiaokai was only four or five years old at that time. How could such a young child still remember the person who poisoned him?

However, the pain and torture he experienced during the ten years of being infected with the corpse poison must have been deeply imprinted in his memory.

Alas, this boy Xiaokai is really pitiful. No one knows what happened back then, and the Gu family lost Xiaokai.

Jiang Yimo secretly made up her mind to find an antidote to remove the corpse poison in Xiaokai's body and make him a healthy and happy boy.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yimo looked up and saw Xiaokai staring at him.

"Xiao Kai, why are you staring at me?" Jiang Yimo asked Xiao Kai, who was a head taller than her.

Xiao Kai's mouth twitched slightly, and an awkward smile appeared on his face. He said softly, "Sister Jiang, Xiao Kai wants to have breakfast with you, is that okay?"

As soon as the words fell, Jiang Yimo couldn't help but be stunned. She had expected Xiao Kai to say something else, but she didn't expect it to be such a simple request.

However, deep in her heart, a warm feeling surged up. She looked at Xiao Kai's sincere eyes, which were full of expectation and desire, and her heart could not help but move.

Jiang Yimo smiled, her eyes showing tenderness and kindness, and she gently replied: "Of course, Xiaokai."

There was a hint of kindness in her voice, as if telling Xiao Kai that his request did not bother her, but made her happy.

A bright smile immediately broke out on Xiaokai's face, as if the sun had penetrated the clouds and illuminated the entire room.

His eyes were filled with joy and satisfaction, as if he had received the most precious gift in the world.

Jiang Yimo was also infected by Xiaokai's smile. The corners of her mouth turned up and her heart was filled with warmth.

She realized that this simple breakfast invitation was not just a meal, but also a kind of care, because Xiaokai had been raised as a killing machine since he was a child. He was very lonely and could not have any emotions.
