1371 Not Worried
“I am still alive and not yet dead, what are you crying for? For my death?” Duke North snapped fiercely as he looked at his mother with a ferocious look. “You are sad because I haven’t fathered a son?”
He shouted as he glared at his mother.
Everyone in the room was shocked.
Duke North had always been respectful towards his mother, gentle and mild. For dozens of years, Duke North had never shouted or scolded the servants in the mansion. However, now… he was shouting and scolding his mother!
Everyone was shocked, and even the housekeeper had no idea what was going on. The housekeeper walked up and said, “Duke North, you are sick, please take a rest. Madame Duke North is just worried about you, so she is panicking.”
Duke North glared at the housekeeper and moved away from him.
Instead of taking another look at the room, he said with displeasure, “Just get out here. I am fine!”
Then he threw a look at Lin Qin, telling him to drive out everyone inside.
He laid back on the bed.
He was feeling very uncomfortable, but it was more mentally than physically.
He was poisoned.
He was poisoned because Chaoyan was ignoring him and walked away directly.
Duke North felt so sad.
It was totally quiet in the room, except for Lin Qin who was guarding next to him.
***
At Xinlin Mansion.
Gu Chaoyan and Zhou Huaijin arrived there soon.
No one was in a good mood after what happened at Duke North Mansion, especially Gu Chaoyan.
She had a very cold expression on her face after walking into the mansion.
After she sat down… Sword One served her tea that might drive away the cold.
Li Qing was still quite confused as he followed her all the way home.
He asked after they sat down, worriedly, “Lady Chaoyan, what should we do with Duke North? When I was treating Duke North, I checked him thoroughly, and I just could not figure out what was wrong with him? The doctors might not know what happened, yet we left directly. Should we really leave Duke North alone?”
Li Qing was very stubborn. He stuck to his own medical belief.
Doctors had their morality and bottomline as doctors. They could not leave the sick alone. That was Li Qing’s bottomline.
That was why he insisted.
Zhou Huaijin was silent as he sat next to them. Sword One was a bit annoyed – what was Li Qing speaking up for Duke North for? Her Elder Miss hated to hear that name.
Gu Chaoyan did not care.
She knew what Li Qing was like. Li Qing would not have been assured unless it was explained.
So she took a sip of tea and said straightforwardly, “Don’t worry, Duke North will be fine even without any doctors.”
“…”
“You can’t diagnose him because he was poisoned.”
“…”
Li Qing was startled.
He just could not understand – why did Lady Chaoyan ignore Duke North when he was poisoned. Lady Chaoyan was also someone who stuck to the principles, so he just could not understand what was going on.
Gu Chaoyan continued. “He was poisoned, but he has the antidote with him.”
“What?!” Li Qing was shocked.
