Ye Xun glanced at Zhixin who was lying on the bed, turned to the imperial doctor and said, "Go down first."
"Yes, I will retire."
After the imperial doctor went down, Ye Xun gently sat down next to Zhi Xin and said softly: "Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
"It's... not bad." Zhixin covered her eyes with her arms to prevent Ye Xun from seeing the tears welling up in her eyes.
Ye Xun captured her choked voice without missing a beat.
He reached out and took away Zhixin's arm. When he saw the tears in her eyes, his heart tugged, "What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
"No, it's okay." She hurriedly stretched out her hand to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes, but the tears kept flowing faster and faster, making Ye Xun nervous.
"What's wrong? Are you still feeling uncomfortable? Tell me, can I ask Dr. Hong Guixuan? Fool, stop crying." Ye Xun's words were filled with urgency, and he stretched out his hand to wipe away the tears that kept pouring out of Zhi Xin.
She helped her up and leaned in her arms, frowning slightly.
"Hong Gui, go and ask the imperial doctor to come over." Ye Xun shouted to Hong Gui who was standing outside the door.
"No need." Zhixin called out to Hong Gui who was about to leave, wiped her tears and looked up at Ye Xun, "I'm fine, I just...just..." At this point, her tears started to fall again.
Once it leaked out, damn it, I couldn't stop it no matter what.
"Just what? Tell me." Ye Xun lowered his head and looked at her, his voice unusually soft.
Zhixin raised her eyes and met Ye Xun's gentle eyes. The grievances in her heart surged into her heart again. Her voice was choked with sobs, "Ye... Ye Xun" blinked slightly, and her tears flowed down her cheeks again.
She shed her tears, "I'm so afraid of getting sick. When I get sick, no one will care about me. I'm so scared, so scared. No one cares about me, they all ignore me..." Zhixin became more and more aggrieved as she spoke, and her tears became more intense.
The violence started, and Ye Xun's grip was so tight.
Ye Xun just held her like this, her voice was a bit trembling and helpless, which made Ye Xun frown in distress, what happened to this girl? As the daughter of the prime minister, she was almost loved by thousands of people.
Apart from anything else, he knew very well how Yu treated his sister, and Huo Zheng and his wife would not ignore her only daughter.
Recalling the several times she woke up crying in her dreams, a trace of doubt flashed in Ye Xun's heart - was she really Huo Zhixin? Huo Zheng's daughter?
