Ye Chutang propped herself up with her right hand on the edge of the bed and slowly sat up. She glanced at the pitch-black sky outside and sighed.
"You shouldn't have... why go to all this trouble so late at night?"
Chu Qiyuan studied her for a few moments. Seeing that her face was pale but her spirits seemed fine, the heart that had been lodged in his throat for so long finally settled.
"The Eldest Princess was worried about you and specially sent someone to summon me. If not for that, I don't know when I would have learned of your injury." As Chu Qiyuan spoke, his brow furrowed. "How on earth did this happen? How did you get so badly hurt?"
Ye Chutang shook her head.
"Doctor Chen and Sun Taiyi are here. They've already checked my pulse. There was no need to trouble you."
"What do those two know?" Chu Qiyuan said with a look of disdain.
Ye Chutang cleared her throat. "The Princely Heir and the Commandery Princess are still outside."
