Three hours later, Gu Ningyue slowly opened her eyes.
"Ning Yue..."
"Ning Yue, you're awake?"
The first voice was hesitant, while the second was filled with delight.
Gu Ningyue looked at Ling Tianyou in a daze and said, "I... where am I?"
Ling Tianyou reached out and touched her forehead, the corners of his mouth revealing a slight smile: "We're home now. You had a high fever, but luckily, it has subsided."
"High... high fever?" Gu Ningyue still hadn't fully reacted, her mind felt like a muddle, completely unaware of the current situation.
Ling Tianyou sat by the bedside, his voice very gentle: "You were poisoned by Shangguan Wuyue. When I tried to take you to the hospital, his men stopped us and took you back to him."
Hearing this, Gu Ningyue suddenly remembered—yes! She had indeed played a game with Shangguan Wuyue, which led to a sudden sharp pain in her abdomen and caused her to lose consciousness.
In her memory, it seemed she even spat out a mouthful of blood.
