Chapter 232: What Do I Do If You Didn’t Regain Consciousness?

“Oh look at the time! I don’t know if you usually take your dinner or medicine first. Has the physician arrived?” Sang Wan hurriedly got up and tidied the hair near her temples before calling Liu Ya in.

Liu Ya came in and lit the candles which illuminated the entire room. Head Servant Zhang also came in and said with a smile, “Young Master, Physician Li is here. Would you…”

Shi Fengju glanced at Sang Wan. Sang Wan couldn’t help but say, “Since Physician Li is here, hurry and invite him in so that he can quickly have a look at Lord!”

With that, she dodged to the back of the partition.

“Let Physician Li in!” Shi Fengju nodded his head.

Head Servant Zhang acknowledged his words and went downstairs to receive him. Physician Li examined the wounds as per usual and checked on how he was doing. As he lightly pressed around Shi Fengju’s body, he asked how he felt. Then, he checked the wound behind his head and told him with cupped fists, “Congratulations, Young Master. Your injuries are healing well. As long as you change the dressings on time, take good care of your wounds, eat light and avoid spicy foods, you will be fine after some time. I will provide a prescription so have your servants pick the herbs according to it. From now on, I will not come every day but every four days to adjust the prescription based on your condition. If you have any doubts, you can send someone to call for me!”

Shi Fengju felt fine. However, Head Servant Zhang had been worried for nothing, as such, Shi Fengju did not feel it was right to refuse his good intentions. However, now that Sang Wan was here, he was unwilling to see the physician twice a day. Now that his wish had been granted, there was a joyful smile on his face, “We have troubled Physician Li! That’s great! Head Servant Zhang, please send Physician Li off!”

After they left, Sang Wan came out from behind the partition and said with a smile, “Since Physician Li said so, clearly you are fine now! Are you hungry? Why don’t I ask them to serve the food! I’ll help you change your dressings later.”

Seeing her nag and being concerned about him, he felt warm in his heart. With a smile, he looked at her and said, “Anything is fine”.

When Sang Wan saw that he clearly did not wish to be concerned about his injuries and every other trivial matter, she could only instruct with a smile.

Head Servant Zhang and the others had experience serving him, so the food they prepared was plain yet tasty. Since they were afraid his injuries would get inflamed, there was no seafood but only ordinary chicken and pork. There was white gourd and short ribs soup, chicken and bean curd, fresh bamboo shoots and tenderloin meat, minced pork and steamed egg, stir-fried vegetables with lily and fungus, bok choy with chicken oil, and many more which were extremely light and refreshing.

The two married maidservants went upstairs with the meal boxes and laid the table in the middle of the hall. Head Servant Zhang, Zhan Huan, and the others helped Shi Fengju get off the bed and walk over. He then sat on a wide rattan chair with a backrest.

Shi Fengju’s eyes glimmered. Before he could say anything, Head Servant Zhang had already led everyone to take their leave. In a split second, only both Shi Fengju and Sang Wan were left in the room.

Head Servant Zhang had never attended to him closely but Zhan Huan knew in detail. He had quietly told him beforehand that when their Young Master was getting along with their Young Mistress, he did not like anyone else to be around. Therefore, he secretly took note of it. When he saw Shi Fengju’s gaze, he knew that Zhan Huan was right.

When Sang Wan saw that everyone had left, who else was there to serve him besides her? After all, he was a patient.

She got up and put a bowl of soup gently before him and said with a smile, “Drink some soup to warm your stomach first. Tell me what you want to eat and I’ll take it for you.”

Shi Fengju said with a smile, “I’m fine. You don’t have to bother about me. You must have been exhausted from your journey here. You should eat too!” With that, he held up the bowl of soup in his hands. He scooped a spoonful of soup and tested the temperature before putting it in front of her mouth.

Sang Wan was in a daze and stared blankly at him.

Shi Fengju chuckled with a smile. The porcelain soup spoon touched her soft lips and he spoke with a smile, “Have you gone dumb? Hurry and open your mouth!”

Sang Wan rigidly opened her mouth and swallowed before she promptly said, “I… I’ll do it on my own. You should quickly eat some! Otherwise, the dishes will turn cold!”

“Alright.” Shi Fengju laughed. Then, he lowered his head and slowly ate while chatting with her.

A short while after eating, Sang Wan helped him to a seat on the couch. Under Head Servant Zhang’s guidance, the two married maidservants came in with a wooden basin and a pot of jet-black liquid medicine to clean Shi Fengju’s wounds.

After which, the ointment would be applied before wrapping the wounds with new gauze.

Head Servant Zhang used to be the one doing it, but Sang Wan was naturally the one to do so now.

Sang Wan cautiously took off the gauze and lifted her head to look at him from time to time. She said with a smile, “Tell me if it hurts.”

When Shi Fengju saw her kneeling down, he hugged his legs as she cautiously did it with attention. From above, he could see her thick and soft eyelashes gently blinking from time to time and the tip of her small nose which was pale and cute. Her delicate and moist red lips had a faint healthy gloss that was particularly alluring. He unconsciously loved her even more. He extended his hands to stroke her face and neck before saying with a smile, “You have always been attentive and gentle so it won’t hurt! You’re not rough like Head Servant Zhang!”

Sang Wan sneered when she heard him. Her hands trembled and she avoided him by moving to the side. “Stop messing around!”

Before she could finish, he sighed and frowned.

“Does it hurt?” Sang Wan was angry yet amused. She hurriedly and cautiously supported his leg before mocking him, “Don’t move. Otherwise, I don’t know when your wounds will recover if I end up hurting them!”

Shi Fengju chuckled and retracted his hands before he pleaded, “Sang Wan, after you change the dressing, have someone draw water for me to wipe my body, alright? I couldn’t bathe these few days and it feels unbearable!”

Although the two of them had the most intimate interactions before, it was often back at the household. Even though she was not unfamiliar with his body, she looked helplessly at him. To see him naked in front of her as she wiped his body clean, she found it uncomfortable and said somewhat shyly, “Don’t tell me that after so many days, Head Servant Zhang never helped wipe your body clean? How can you bear this since you love cleanliness?”

Shi Fengju had a face full of disgust and replied, “As a grown man, how can I let the servants do such a thing to me? All these days, he only wiped my hands and feet. As for my body, I can clean it on my own! But, it’s still somewhat inconvenient so I stopped doing it!”

Sang Wan suppressed her laughter without saying a word. She said in her heart: You have a lot of shortcomings. However, you’re only deceiving yourself! You were fished up from the water dripping wet and they had to take off your clothes? While you were unconscious, how could they not help you wipe your body? You paid particular attention to it only after you woke up and the servants do not dare speak about it.

“Sang Wan, I’m a pitiful patient. Will you help me? You’re my wife…” When Shi Fengju saw she was silent, he pulled on her hands and shook them with a grin.

“I’ll change your dressing first. Then, I’ll help you to your bed so that you can lie down while I ask someone to bring hot water in!” Sang Wan was resigned to her fate. Since he had spoken, what else could she say? Anyway, the two of them were a couple. They had done everything behind closed doors, this alone wasn’t much.

After Shi Fengju saw she had agreed, he responded happily with a smile. He leaned on the couch and obediently allowed her to fiddle around without moving his hands or legs. When she occasionally looked up at him, she revealed a gentle smile. Sang Wan often touched him so her heartbeat immediately increased and she lowered her head. This made Shi Fengju laugh silently as he glanced at her in interest.

The wound on his leg was over two fingers long and also very deep. However, it had recovered. Because of the liquid medicine, the originally light brown skin on his lower leg was covered with a large patch of black.

“It must have hurt a lot at first, right?” Sang Wan felt somewhat sorry for him. She carefully supported his leg, wet a clean cotton cloth before she cautiously rinsed it and wiped him clean.

“What pain could I feel at that time? Thinking about it, I really am lucky! Since I’m in your care from today onwards, it won’t even hurt anymore!” Her soft hands lightly caressed his leg as if brushing past his heart with a fluffy soft brush. Shi Fengju loved the considerate side of her so much that he did not hate the process of dressing his wounds as much and even silently liked it.

Sang Wan giggled. “You said this since the matter is in the past. If… If I came but you’re still not awake, I really don’t know… Why am I saying such ominous words!”

Shi Fengju chuckled and his mood lifted. He asked with a smile, “If you came and I were still not awake, what would you do?”

He had an absurd thought all of a sudden and there was silent regret in his heart. If he had known earlier, he would have pretended to be unconscious and watched her reaction. However, thinking about it, she would definitely lean on his body and cry in a grief-stricken manner. That would surely break his heart. He was then silently glad that he had not done such an absurd thing.

“What can I still do?” Sang Wan answered with a smile, “I naturally have to take care of you by your side and wait for you to wake up!”

“What if I remained unconscious?” Shi Fengju was addicted to asking her and did not want to let the matter go. Therefore, he questioned with a smile.

“Don’t spout nonsense!” Sang Wan frowned slightly and replied with a stare, “Who would curse himself? If Mother heard you, she would definitely punish you!”

Shi Fengju started laughing and said, “You know how to pressure me with my mother! Now that I’m awake, what’s the hurry? Sang Wan, you haven’t answered me yet!”

Without any hesitation, she replied, “I will continue to take care of you by your side!”

Shi Fengju was taken aback and was suddenly at a loss for words. After a while, he said, “If I still don’t wake up, won’t it be your mistake since you’ll keep on accompanying me?” He paused and lost his smile. “If I really did not wake up, I also wouldn’t know what’s best for you. I naturally hope for you to always be by my side. I want you to do that for a lifetime but I can’t bear to see you suffer…”

Shi Fengju seemed to be pondering over something and his voice slowly became softer. Sang Wan was immediately at a loss. She was his wife so she naturally had to be by his side, which was expected. However, she searched her heart for the most realistic way and was stupefied. Her heart was blank without any thoughts at all.
