Bu Yaolian leaned into his embrace and sniffed. “It’s my fault.”


  Su Shenfan took off his cloak and wrapped her up. “You don’t even know how to wear a cloak when you come out to call for help. Look at you now.”


  Bu Yaolian didn’t know what she looked like, but she was sure that she didn’t look good.

  Her entire body was covered in sweat, and her hair was wet and stuck to her snow-white forehead. Her face was pale, except for two patches of red. Her lips were swollen and full, and her clothes were thin and transparent.

  She looked like a loose woman who had just been ravaged.

  How did she not look good? Su Shenfan wanted to strangle her to death.

  Su Shenfan picked her up and threw her on the bed. Looking at her swollen lips, he said coldly, “I didn’t know that your mouth can get so swollen from a stomachache.”


  It could only get like that from being kissed.

  However, he felt that Su Lian didn’t have the guts to cheat on him.

  “It…… it was spicy food.” Bu Yaolian lowered her head. She wanted to die. She also didn’t want to be like this.

  Su Shenfan chuckled. “Who would torture themselves like this?”


  He covered her forehead with his hand. It was hot, and his hand probably felt cool.

  Women were really troublesome.

  “I…… I was wrong.” Bu Yaolian held her stomach, her teeth chattering with pain.

  “Who asked you to eat spicy food when you’re on your period? Didn’t you hear the imperial physician say that you have to eat something light?” Su Shenfan really felt that it served her right.

  She brought it on herself.

  “I…… I forgot.” Bu Yaolian was in so much pain and didn’t want to listen to him lecture her.

  Tears welled up in her eyes.

  “Hehe……” Su Shenfan didn’t know what else to say to her.

  Holding her in his arms, he reached out and stroked where it hurt most. “Is it here?”


  “Mm.” Bu Yaolian felt a little more at ease in his arms, but the scent on his body made her frown even more.

  Su Shenfan used his spiritual power to comfort her for a while. The pain wasn’t as intense as before, and eased a lot.

  The imperial doctor had been dug out in the middle of the night. He wasn’t even dressed properly, and was still putting his hair into a knot when he arrived.

  “Miss, your stomach hurts. Don’t tell me it’s indigestion again?” the imperial doctor immediately asked when he saw her again.

  Bu Yaolian pouted and felt wronged. “No, I was very careful when I ate this time. I was only 70% full.”


  “Heh……” Su Shenfan couldn’t help but sneer.

  She indeed hadn’t overeaten this time. She had changed her method of self-torture, and ate spicy food until she almost killed herself.

  Frightened by Su Shenfan’s sneer, the imperial doctor quickly took Bu Yaolian’s pulse.

  “Miss, your internal organs are hot and moist. Judging from your lips, you’ve eaten too much heavy food, and you’re suffering from excessive internal heat. No matter how good the food is, you can’t overdo it.”


  The imperial doctor spoke earnestly.

  She was such a beautiful girl, but fell sick every time after eating, and looked pitiful.

  It was also hard for him, being woken up in the middle of the night.

  “She’s in a lot of pain right now. Help her.” Su Shenfan glanced at Bu Yaolian, who was lying on the bed weakly with her eyes lowered in embarrassment, and smiled.

  “I’ll give the lady acupuncture treatment at once to alleviate the pain.”


  The imperial doctor was busy for more than an hour before Bu Yaolian finally felt that she had been pulled back from the gates of hell.
