Chapter 60: Second Night Sleeping Together (2)

Wen Yantong finished the hot water, lifted the quilt, and put on a cloak. She then pointed to the savory snacks on the table and said, "Bring a few pieces of these snacks, pour a cup of hot tea, and come with me."

The wind and snow were raging outside, so when Wen Yantong followed Mo Li out, she immediately sobered up.

These single dorms were prepared for nobles, so there was separate housing for the servants to live in the back; her two maids shared a small house.

At this moment, a guard stood outside that small house, standing by the door with a stern face.

Wen Yantong walked over and sniffed. "Did the Little Marquis ask you to stand here?"

The guard glanced at her and replied, "Yes, this subordinate of the Little Marquis is tasked to watch the girl pack and leave for the servant’s courtyard."

Wen Yantong smiled, waved her hand, and said, "Brother, the weather is very cold. Take a warm drink to warm up your body."

Mo Li hurriedly handed the hot tea up. The guard didn't reach out to take it as he replied, "No need."

She then reached out, felt the guard's hand, and exclaimed, "Aiyo! Your hands are very cold! But still playing tough! Just drink it. This hot tea had just been made. The Little Marquis is not here, so no one will find out."

The guard didn't expect her to suddenly make a move and subconsciously wanted to retract his hand, but Wen Yantong grabbed it. She took the pastry from Mo Li as well and stuffed it into his hand, "Hurry up and eat! It was so cold last night. It must have been rough guarding at night! I really feel bad."

The guard was confused. "Night watch was not for you."

"It's all the same. All the same!" Wen Yantong said with a smile, "Did the hand servant of the Little Marquis freeze yesterday?"

The guard froze for a moment and then replied, "No."

"That's good." Wen Yantong pretended to breathe a sigh of relief. "Last night, we had a light disagreement, but the Little Marquis insisted on punishing him. Luckily, he didn't freeze."

In fact, she secretly lamented that it was a pity that the little bastard didn't catch a cold!

The guard's face changed immediately when he heard her explanation. He quietly received the pastry that Wen Yantong handed over, and smiling slightly, he asked, "I wonder how he made the Little Marquis unhappy?"

Wen Yantong said, "As long as everyone is fine. It's been cold recently. You should also pay attention to your body. You don't need to guard here. Quickly go back to warm up. Look at me. I'm already frozen sick."

The guard looked at the small house in embarrassment. "But the Little Marquis’s order..."

"Don't worry about it." Wen Yantong waved her hand and said, "I'll tell the Little Marquis about this. He's not a harsh master."

The guard didn't want to take on this drudgery either, so he replied with a smile, "Then I have troubled Wen gongzi."

"It’s nothing." Wen Yantong looked at Mo Li. "Give the tea to this good guard."

Hearing that, Mo Li handed over the tea again, but this time the guard happily took it. He thanked Wen Yantong, then turned and left.

After the two entered the house, they saw He Ying crying while packing her things. She only looked up when Mo Li called her.

When He Ying saw Wen Yantong, she rushed up crying and asked for forgiveness.

Wen Yantong raised the kneeling maid with her hands and said, "It's alright. Don't cry. You just stay in the house for the next few days, walk around as little as possible, and don't let the Little Marquis see you."

He Ying cried and thanked her again and again.

Wen Yantong was very dizzy. Just now she stood in the cold wind again, so now she felt even more uncomfortable. After a few words, she hurried back to her room.

At noon, Mo Li came to ask her what to eat, but Wen Yantong had no appetite at all. She waved her hand to refuse, nestled herself back into the soft couch, and slept until dark.

When Chi Jingxi came back from Li Boyuan’s room, it was dark, and the wind was sharp.

As soon as he walked to the door, an attendant stepped forward and whispered, "Little Marquis, the maid from this morning was stopped by Wen gongzi, so she did not leave."

Chi Jingxi's expression did not change. "Has he been in the room all day? Did he go anywhere?"

The attendant replied, "He went out in the morning and talked to the guard who you assigned to watch the maid. He gave him a cup of hot tea and a few snacks and then came back. He did not leave again."

Chi Jingxi responded in a low voice and was about to leave, but the attendant suddenly added, "But..."

"Speak."

"Wen gongzi seemed to have not eaten all day today," the attendant said.

Chi Jingxi looked to the other side, "Why didn't he eat?"

"Might be due to a cold." The attendant replied, "His maid had asked us to go out and buy some cold medicine."

Chi Jingxi narrowed his eyes.

The attendant took the opportunity to add, "Little Marquis, colds are contagious. Why don't we have Wen gongzi sleep elsewhere, in case it spreads to you..."

Chi Jingxi said, "It's fine. I'm not weak enough to be infected by the cold."

After he finished speaking, he walked into the house. Mo Li happened to come out of it, and when she saw Chi Jingxi, she immediately made way. She stood against the wall and bowed, "Little Marquis."

Chi Jingxi changed his shoes, shook off the snow from his body, and opened the cotton curtain to enter the room.

The thick cotton curtains in the room were all let down. There were only two lamps lit left and right, casting a soft light in the slightly dim room. The house was very peaceful, and the large heater in the main room was burning vigorously, instantly melting the cold on Chi Jingxi's body and turning it into fine water droplets.

He took off his heavy cloak, put it on the chair, looked around the room, and walked towards the screen.

Chi Jingxi glanced at the plates on the table when he passed by. Sure enough, the plates were empty, and there was one cup missing.

Wen Yantong held the cup tightly. She was covered with several layers of thick clothes with half of her head exposed, and her closed eyes were full of peace.

She seemed to be sleeping soundly and couldn't hear anything.
