Tao Yu’s smile deepened, “Is that so? Then I should thank him for taking care of the city lord.”
Unexpectedly obtaining the information so quickly, she realized the servant wouldn’t know much more. She coughed and furrowed her brow.
The servant asked anxiously, “What’s wrong?”
“I’m not sure. I feel a bit unwell. I’m feeling somewhat dizzy,” Tao Yu said weakly.
The servant stood up, looking lost, “Then, I’ll go call a doctor.”
Tao Yu glanced at him, “No need to trouble. I might have caught a chill. I’ll go rest.”
“Okay, please rest. If you’re not feeling well, send someone to tell me, and I’ll fetch a doctor,” the servant quickly responded.
Tao Yu smiled and nodded, “Thank you.” After exchanging a few more words and saying goodbye, she returned to the room where she had dined with Yue Linze, pondering how to meet this Lord Zhao.
Before she could devise a plan, Yue Linze hurriedly returned. Tao Yu looked outside, noticing it was still early, and said, “The servant said you’d return after dark. Why are you back so soon?”
“Are you feeling unwell?” Yue Linze interrupted, concerned, his hands gripping her shoulders.
Come on, come here and keep me company.” Tao Yu pulled his hand, swaying left and right, and only lay down on the bed after seeing him smile, staring at him taking off his outer garment, thinking to herself that ever since she discovered the most effective way to deal with a naive sweetheart was to be even more naive herself, she had been living more and more in reverse.
When Yue Linze took off his outer garment, she immediately rolled into the bed, and as soon as he lay down, she clung to him, sighing comfortably after a while, her originally unwearied eyelids beginning to feel heavy: “Indeed, it’s more comfortable hugging you.”
“What, do you have someone else to compare with?” Yue Linze raised an eyebrow, then suddenly remembered something, his gaze turning cold for an instant, but this coldness came and went quickly, and Tao Yu, who was finding a comfortable position in his arms, didn’t notice.
She just laughed: “What do you think? Do I or don’t I? Don’t you know?”
