Chapter 450: Medicine

Seeing her precious son whom she had not seen for a long time, Tang Chunxiu’s eyes lit up. “Little Yan! When did you come back? Didn’t you tell your mother?”1

Tang Chunxiu happily went downstairs and placed the medicine and water in her hands on the table. She then pulled Zhao Yan over to ask about his well-being. Her motherly heart was overflowing with words.

Gu Chu’s attention was placed on the medicine on the table.

These medicines were almost all for removing scars, swelling, and inflammation, as well as for reducing injuries and pain and sleeping.

Gu Chu frowned deeply. Was Zhao manshi sick?

What kind of illness needed swelling and pain relief?

Tang chunxiu happily pulled her son’s hand and asked about his well-being. Out of the corner of her eye, she inadvertently caught a glimpse of Gu Chu who was trying to play with the medicine. Tang Chunxiu’s expression suddenly turned cold. Tang chunxiu reached out and slapped Gu Chu’s messy little hand. “Don’t touch my things! You’re Rude!”

Gu Chu was caught off guard and his little hand was slapped by Tang Chunxiu.

Tang Chunxiu was wearing a beautiful manicure with sharp edges. When the manicure scratched Gu Chu’s delicate little hand, it immediately left a dark red scratch.

Gu Chu was “Shocked”and quickly hid behind Zhao Yan. He grabbed the corner of Zhao Yan’s shirt with a wronged expression. “Uncle...”

Zhao Yan’s eyes suddenly turned cold.

He looked at his mother coldly as if he was looking at a stranger. “She’s still a six-year-old child. She doesn’t know anything.”

Tang Chunxiu saw her son’s unfriendly expression and was a little nervous. “It was just a light slap. A child should learn to be obedient after being taught a lesson.”

Gu Chu secretly rolled his eyes. What kind of logic was that! !

Zhao Yan protected Gu Chu. “I want to visit Manshi. I’ll leave as soon as I come.”

“This...”Tang chunxiu frowned. She could not publicize Manshi’s matter.

As the saying went, one should not spread one’s dirty laundry. If news of Manshi being raped by a man were to spread, where would tang Chunxiu put her face? She would be humiliated to the point that she would never be able to bear it.

“Your sister has been running a fever for the past few days. She should still be asleep.”Tang Chunxiu hesitated for a moment before nodding. “You don’t have to stay up for too long.”

Zhao Yan nodded slightly and brought Gu Chu upstairs.

He pushed open Zhao Manshi’s bedroom. The bedroom was spacious and bright, filled with the vitality of a young girl. Zhao Manshi was lying on the bed to rest. Her face was pale, and her thick pajamas covered her neck and wrists. She seemed to have fallen asleep with her eyes closed.

Zhao Yan walked to the side of the bed with light footsteps.

He bent down and touched Zhao Manshi’s forehead. Sure enough, she was running a fever. It seemed that she was really sick.

Gu Chu was very curious about what illness Zhao Manshi was suffering from. She looked like she had a fever, but the medicine she used was to reduce inflammation and relieve pain. Gu Chu leaned against the bed and called out softly, “Auntie, Chu Chu is here to see you.”

Zhao Manshi was still sleeping and did not seem to have heard him.

Gu Chu sniffed slightly. There was a faint smell of medicine and blood in the air. He looked closely at Zhao Manshi’s face. It was as pale as paper, and there was a faint scab on the corner of her mouth. When he looked closely at her neck that was covered tightly, he could vaguely see a little bruise that was not covered but had already dissipated...

This made Gu Chu even more confused.

Had his aunt been beaten up?

After all, she was the miss of the Zhao family. Even if the Zhao family was on the verge of bankruptcy now, it was not to the extent of being beaten up...

“Alright, come out quickly.”Tang Chunxiu was counting the time outside and asked Zhao Yan to come out. “Your sister is still resting, don’t disturb her.”

Zhao Yan left with Gu Chu.

He closed the door gently.

Inside the room, Zhao manshi, who was “Sleeping”, slowly opened her eyes, tears welling up in her eyes.

She buried herself deeply in the blanket. How could she dare to let her brother know about such a dirty experience? How could she dare to Dirty Chu Chu’s ears?
