Su Qianxun dashed towards the swimming pool as fast as she could. She did not even hesitate as she dove into the water. She swam to Long Sijue at lightning speed and held him in her arms. She called out to him frantically, “Young master, young master… Ah Jue… wake up… Ah Jue.”

Just as Su Qianxun was panicking, the man whose eyes were shut tight a moment ago suddenly opened his eyes. Before she knew it, he pinned her against the swimming pool wall.

Su Qianxun was completely taken aback. She widened her eyes and gawked at the man who had woken up abruptly. Their faces were only inches away from each other. Long Sijue fixed his eyes on hers and asked, “What did you just call me?”

Su Qianxun was dumbstruck.

“Speak!” Long Sijue suddenly burst with anger and bellowed at her. ‘Why is it so hard to make her say his name for once?’

“Ah Jue…” Su Qianxun held her breath, but she repeated what she said obediently anyway.

The moment Su Qianxun said that, the man, who had been clutching her shoulders suddenly relaxed and loosened his grip. The next thing she knew, he collapsed on her…

Su Qianxun quickly held onto him, preventing him from sinking into the water and drowning. In that moment, her heart almost stopped beating…

…..

Half an hour later, she had carried Long Sijue back to the bedroom. Zi Fan was examining him. Ye Gu, Si Mancheng, and Tang Zui stood in the room with gloomy expressions on their faces. The atmosphere was rather depressing.

Su Qianxun stood farther from the bed than anyone else in the room. She merely stared at the man who lay in bed in silence. There was a sense of suffocation in her chest.

“Zi Fan, what’s the deal with Jue?” Tang Zui asked worriedly.

“The aphrodisiac that the young master was drugged with is too strong, and he was given a large dose too. There is still some residue of the drug in his system. I just checked the young master’s pulse. His body is very weak now, perhaps due to the fact that he has not been eating well for the past few days. His eating disorder has become more serious.”

Su Qianxun furrowed her eyebrows. ‘What? Does Long Sijue have an eating disorder?’

“Then, what do we do now? What’s the treatment?” Si Mancheng had been worrying that something like this would happen one day. Long Sijue was not at his best and has been acting strangely these days. Unfortunately, he really fell ill in the end.

“I’ve prescribed some pills for the young master to clear out the toxins in his body. But our priority is to treat his eating disorder.”

“You’re too loud!” Long Sijue said, unamused. He then slowly opened his eyes. His gaze fell on the young woman who stood at the doorway.

“Jue, you’re awake. You can’t go on like this. You have to take good care of your own body!”

“Exactly. Think about it. You’ve been through worse, yet you survived that…”

“All of you may leave now,” Long Sijue said expressionlessly. He sat up and leaned against the headboard.

Si Mancheng and Tang Zui had no choice but to do as he said.

“Chick, I’m leaving Jue to you. Make sure that he takes these pills and cook some dishes that he likes,” Tang Zui said to the young woman who was standing at the door in a daze.

Su Qianxun nodded without a word.

After a moment, Su Qianxun and Long Sijue were the only people left in the condominium. The young woman walked towards him and said, “Finish the pills first.”

“Take them away!” Long Sijue looked away with an expression of disgust.

Su Qianxun studied the stubborn look on his face. Without hesitation, she stuffed all the pills in her palms into her own mouth. Then she leaned over and put her arms around him, pressing her lips on his…

Long Sijue felt young woman’s small tongue pushing the pills into his mouth, one by one. When their lips parted, Su Qianxun picked up a glass of water and held it to his mouth until he swallowed all the pills…
