“Alright then! Thanks.”
She put it away and found a place to sit down, then said: “Since you want me to keep watch over him then you may take your leave! It is hard work staying up late, go and get someone to make something nourishing and refreshing for me to eat.”
Upon hearing this, the two men looked at each other and nodded: “Alright, we will leave the things in here to you and stand guard outside.” There were people watching in secret so they weren’t afraid that he would do anything reckless. Besides, there was no benefit to him if he were to do anything to their Young Master, surely he wouldn’t be so stupid.
When she saw them leave and the people in secret were still watching her, Feng Jiu ignored them. The person lying here was their Young Lord, naturally, it was impossible for them to dismiss everyone keeping watch.
However, even if she had wanted to leave, she wasn’t in a hurry and tonight wasn’t the best time to leave either.
Therefore, she walked around the room and when she saw that there was no chaise lounge, she ordered for one to be brought in. Later on, she sat on the chaise lounge and read a book. It wasn’t until supper was delivered that she checked on the person lying on the bed. Though she saw that the mask was worn on his face the whole time, she didn’t want to remove the mask to take a look, after all, knowing too much wasn’t a good thing.
That night, just as she expected, after taking the medicine, the person didn’t have a fever and the night passed calmly. The next morning at dawn, she returned to her room to rest. Once she had entered her room, she didn’t leave the whole day.
In the room in the adjacent courtyard, the old physician examined the wound in the evening, and nodded. He said to the old man in grey with a smile: “Young Master’s injury is recovering quite well, the dangerous period has passed and all we need to do now is wait for him to wake up.”
“That’s good.” The grey robed old man felt relief in his heart and said: “That kid has some abilities, if we can recruit such a person…”

The old physician interrupted him and said: “You don’t need to think about this. One glance and it’s obvious that Little Brother is not a person who likes to be constrained. What’s more, with his extraordinary skills, he is definitely not an unknown person.”
Upon hearing this, the old man in grey didn’t say much more, but stroked his beard and said: “Has he not come out at all since he went back to rest this morning? Although Young Lord’s injury is better, we can’t be careless in case the wound becomes inflamed again. It’s getting late, send someone to ask him to come and take care of it!”
“Alright.” The old physician had decided to go himself but when he turned around, he saw the young man yawning with a sleepy expression on his face as he walked in.
“Heh heh, Little Brother, you’re here?”
“Elder, what tonic did you prepare for me today?” Feng Jiu patted his cheek lightly and asked after she regained some energy.
When he heard this, the old physician shook his head and smiled: “You wait for a while, I will send someone to bring it over.” After spending two days together, he knew that this young man liked to eat, especially good food.
“By the way, I’ve finished reading this book on tonics, you can have it back.” Feng Jiu handed the book back to him.
Upon seeing this, the old man accepted the book and sat down with her. As for the other person, he went into the bedroom. After a short while, the two of them had finished dinner and Feng Jiu entered the bedroom again while the others retreated once more.
No one had paid much attention until the next day, when they knocked on the door and found that the young boy was not in the room.
The two elders looked at each other, taken aback. Then the old man in grey said: “Where is the young boy?”
There was silence in the hiding place for a while, as if suddenly rousing to attention, they looked at each other, dumbfounded……
