3297: Idiot

Idiot

Later, Jun Jueshang said to the middle-aged man: "You go and make the ginger soup and tell your wife to come over."2

"Yes, yes." The middle-aged man responded quickly and walked out immediately. After a while, his wife came in: "Master."

"Help her change out of her wet clothes." He looked at the woman and ordered. 

"Yes."

When the woman stepped forward to lift the unconscious Wanyan Qianhua up, she saw that her Master had turned around and left, and even closed the door. At that moment, she took the wet clothes off her body, then she found a set of clothes that hadn't been worn and put them on for her. After she had helped her get changed, she helped her to bed and covered her with a quilt. By the time she was done, her forehead was dripping in sweat. However, she didn't dare to stay. Instead, she opened the door and said to Jun Jueshang, who was outside: "Master, this girl has a fever. Her whole body is hot."

Jun Jueshang went into the room and came to her bedside. He took Wanyan Qianhua's pulse, then he took out a medicinal pill and stuffed it into her mouth. At this moment, he heard the middle-aged man's voice.

"Master, the ginger soup is ready."

"Give it to me. I'll bring it in." The woman took the ginger soup from his hand and signalled for her husband to wait outside. After all, the person inside was a girl, and she had been brought here by their Sect Master, so naturally he couldn't come inside as he pleased. 

"Master, ginger soup." The woman came to the bedside with the ginger soup. 

Jun Jueshang helped Wanyan Qianhua up and leaned her in his arms. As she was unconscious and unable to open her mouth, he pinched her chin slightly and said to the woman: "Feed her."

"Yes, yes." 

The woman took a spoonful of ginger soup and fed it to Wanyan Qianhua carefully. She drank some of the ginger soup, but some of it flowed out of the corners of her mouth. When he saw this, Jun Jueshang wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief. After she had finished feeding Wanyan Qianhua the bowl of ginger soup, the woman left the room. 

When she got outside, the middle-aged man pulled his wife aside and asked softly: "How is it going inside?"

"What do you mean? The girl is unconscious from being out in the wind and rain, and the Sect Master is taking care of her!" She looked back and said: "I wonder who the girl is? The way Sect Master treats her is not like an ordinary person!"

The middle-aged man's expression was strange when he replied: "What do you think Sect Master is thinking? Insouciant Sect is just up there, why didn't he take the girl back to Insouciant Sect? Why did he come to our house instead?"

"Who knows? Enough enough, let's go back to the front and don't disturb them." Though the woman pushed him forward, she was also curious. 

In the room, Jun Jueshang lay Wanyan Qianhua down and covered her with the quilt, then he sat on the edge of the bed and looked at her. His heart was like a rock. He had never been tempted by any woman, nor did he understand what love was. Therefore, he was puzzled when he saw how sad she was. 

He had never treated her nicely, why would she fall in love with him? They hadn't spent that much time together, and most of the time he was sarcastic to her and never gave her a glimmer of hope. Why did she develop feelings for him? Why did she care about him? Why would she let herself fall into a state of despair because of his words?

His words were only meant to make her give up any hope of him reciprocating her feelings because it was impossible between the two of them. 

She was a young girl, her beauty and charm was unparalleled. When he founded Insouciant Sect, her grandfather probably hadn't even been born. How could a person like him and a woman like her ever get along?

When he saw her laying on the bed, he shook his head and sighed in his heart, and said slowly: "Idiot."
