May be he should have asked for her to be in a drip, but it was too late as the doctor has already left.
Thinking,It should be a small matter, he should wake her up. Lu yichen, walked near her and tried to wake her up but even if he tried, she didn't wake up. For a few times she groaned but still in her unconsciousness.
Realizing she is not going to wake up and cannot eat the medicine, he went down to the kitchen, after walking so long.
'i should have built one in east wing as well ' he muttered. The kitchen was empty as everyone have already retired to their room. He decided to make a simple soup, the only thing he is confident in making.
After fifteen minutes of shuffling in the kitchen with all the ingredients and all the chopping and coping with fire, he finally made a soup. In that soup, he mixed the medicine after grinding it.
Then he came up and to her room, he slowly pulled her from her bed, so she can now lie down with her head on the board. He scooped a soup, and fed her.
Evelyn was unconscious, at first she didn't opened her mouth but with a little coaxing, she seemed to understand as she finally opened her mouth. In her unconsciousness, she vaguely heard a cold yet gentle voice .
"Open your mouth, good" lu yichen tried to coaxed her but as he had no experience,it came out to be awkward. But good thing, this method worked. He was now even sure, this girl is not someone without families, she is clearly pampers princess of some rich.
But the thing is, how can such girl maintain her Innocence even after living in those scheming circle. But who is he to judge, when he himself is not a saint.
After a lot coaxing, he finally fed her all the soup and let her sleep.
Next morning Evelyn woke up with a headache, as she has been unwell all night. But is still better compare to last night when she felt uncomfortable but couldn't do anything.
Just then the door opened, and lu yichen again entered her room to check on her. Seeing her just waking up, he got near her and put his hand to her forehead to check her temperature much to her confusion.
Get freshened up first, I will be waiting here. Clear meaning that he is going to interrogate her and reprimand her for her last night's behavior.
Evelyn stiffly stood up to go to the bathroom, in the bathroom she realized her clothes, that is clearly from not the one she has worn. But she has this confidence, that man outside the bathroom would not be so hooligan to take advantage of her unguarded state. It must be the work of servant, she had to thank them later, she noted.
After she came out, he was waiting for her on the sofa, so, she sat in front of him, not saying anything.
"Don't you have anything to say" lu yichen asked her as he had expected she would apologize for her behavior as she must have regretted leaving the house after all the suffering. But, to his surprise she didn't say anything and even is shaking her head in denial which made him angry.
" I will leave now, don't worry" seeing his expression getting colder, she thought he is angry for causing him a lot of trouble last night.
" You still want to leave?" He asked her coldly. This little girl seems to be an ungrateful brat. Despite his kindness and effort, she didn't even thanked him and now wanted to leave again.
"Huh" she looked up to him. Why is he saying things like this. Didn't he dislike her, shouldn't his mood improve after knowing she will leave and will cause no more trouble.
" Where will you go after this then" he inquired. Though, she was ungrateful but she is still little girl with no experience. What if she once again will be target of some robber and bad guys. There is even more now, when his enemies have clearly sensed his move last night. It would be dangerous for her if she will go at this time.
"Umm, to find work?" She said doubtfully. She had not planned for anything as she left the house. She thought whatever she will come across, she will think after that.
"Don't you want to go to your parents house" lu yichen asked her curiously. Why, this girl have ran away from her home, and even if she had nothing, she still did not want to return. Does her rich parents does not treat her well. That might be the case as in those rich family, mostly will think about their daughter as someone to build a connection with by marrying them off. And also the fact there is no warmth in there, he has seen it.
"Didn't I tell you, I don't have parents." She looked at him with a innocent expression.
Now he is not sure, if she actually saying truth or not.
"Anyway, you can stay, if you want." He told her.
"Hump" she crossed her arms and looked elsewhere, " didn't you not like me. Why being nice now." She snorted still holding a grudge.
" When did I say that. I just told you not to interfere in my things." He looked perplexed. He was the one helping her yet he has to explain her. He might not be sure about other things but one thing he come to realize is this girl has a huge pride and is equally stubborn despite being in disadvantageous position.
" When did I interfere.I just waited for you to have dinner, yet you didn't like that. You are clearly at fault." She fired back not thinking about the consequences.
"You are quite brave huh. Yes that was my fault, okay. Now you can do whatever you like. Just stay here for the time being. No need to leave." Lu yichen said knowing she won't back down. It is wise for him to back out, as this conversation would only drag if he didn't became mature one.
"Oh, now you say I can stay. Because of you, I left the house and caught in the rain and am not feeling well. Now you apologize, what's the use." Evelyn retorted clearly not satisfied. It seems she is the kind of people who will take miles if given an inch.
"Then you can leave." He also didn't give in to her this time. This girl has some problem, if you indulge her, she will become unreasonable.
"Oh, I was just saying. I will stay. Hehe" she finally tonned down her attitude as she didn't get things as she expected. She thought, he will coax her and apologize more. But this man seems so straight and boring.
" You are not man, if you take back your words" she even added this sentence successfully making his expression turn gloomy.
"Suit yourself " not wanting to deal with her, Lu yichen left her room.
Evelyn smiled at the outcome. Now, she can live here for long and also that man seems not bad. Though he looked cold and gave a scary vibe, she found, he was a little soft. He has been good to her and helped her a lot. In the future, if she wants something, she can ask him and she is sure, he will agree to her request.
Thinking about the future, the future she is going to make it a wild and more fun, she giggled, her devil horn showing up.She will get her freedom and enjoy her life for a month.
