Chapter 168: Do you want to eat sweet-scented osmanthus cake? (7)
Her body is a little out of control, and this is not her fault.
But Lu Chen seems a little scary.
Lu Chen returned to his courtyard. The Lu family was very wealthy. Not only was the scenery inside the entire mansion great, but the courtyards scattered in various places also had their own characteristics. No matter which courtyard, it was excellent, even if it was the courtyard where the servants lived together. It's still much better than ordinary people's homes outside.
He had only arrived not long ago, and there was nothing in the yard. Not long after he returned to his room, someone brought a medicine bowl.
The black concoction in the bowl was level with the mouth of the bowl. Lu Chen picked up the bowl and poured it into his mouth without saying a word.
There was a bitter taste in his mouth, which made him sick before it reached his throat. Lu Chen didn't even frown. The seventeen-year-old boy had already learned what bitterness was.
Compared with the pain of medicine, this kind of life that is so disgusting that people don’t want to face it is sad.
The servant waited for him to finish drinking, put the medicine bowl into a small square box, and left with the square box.
Lu Chen stared at his hands for a while, then closed the door and sat on the bed.
The bed is very soft, covered with thick bedding, and the quilt is made of silk. It feels cool to the touch, which is perfect for summer.
But he pushed aside the thin quilt that smelled of money and lay down in his clothes.
Then came another difficult period.
In about one stick of incense, Lu Chen changed from lying on his back to lying on his side. Then his body curled up into a ball, and sweat appeared on his face.
First it was the back, and then it went from the back to the limbs. It was like needles falling densely, but the pain was more than ten times that of the needles.
It felt like he was about to die, but his mind was so clear that he could remember this long period of torture deep in his bones.
I didn’t see Lu Chen at dinner.
Yun Fanfan was a little regretful that Mrs. Lu didn't come either, and no one asked about Lu Chen's affairs. Instead, he saw a maid preparing food and walking out with a food box.
After eating, Yun Fanfan saw Lu Chen's figure on the way back to the yard. At first she thought it was because she was dazzled, but it wasn't until she saw the familiar black clothes on Lu Chen that she recognized the figure from behind in the night.
Lu Chen stood next to the water like a jade tree by the lake. The bright moonlight poured down, reflecting his waist-length black hair into a light silver.
Yun Fanfan wanted to go over and say hello, but she felt that Lu Chen didn't like her very much. Thinking about the way he looked at her during the day, it was not a friendly look.
What if she died before she could eliminate his blackening value?
After hesitating, she consciously moved her feet in Lu Chen's direction, and the distance shortened a lot in an instant.
Then she saw Lu Chen's body swaying, and the lake was in front of him.
The lake was very big. Mrs. Lu liked to pick lotus pods in her early years, but she didn't like to go outside, so she sent people to dig a large pond in the Lu Mansion, diverted water, and planted lotus leaves. The lake was deep enough for boating on it.
If this goes down, it will probably be quite painful.
Yun Fanfan ran over without thinking, trying to grab Lu Chen.
Lu Chen was only slightly distracted, and his body was still a little weak at the moment, so he couldn't stand firm. Fortunately, he had been working all year round and his body was agile enough, so he quickly stood firm.
As soon as he stood firm, he felt the sound of wind behind him, as if someone was rushing towards him.
Looking back, all he saw was a slightly anxious face.
Lu Chen shifted his body.
