Chapter 226 Blindness
Chapter 226 Blindness
The quarrel lasted until midnight. Mo Jiangqing and Mo Jiangche came to help Mo Liujin, but Mo Liujin pushed them away and said, "Go help your mother. Walk slowly."
The two brothers were baffled, but still obediently went to support Chu Qingmeng. Leng Feng supported Mo Liujin and walked behind the mother and her two children. When they reached the gate of the courtyard, Mo Liujin reminded them, "Be careful with the second step. There are three steps to the platform."
Chu Qingmeng stopped, turned around as if to look at him, and replied softly, "Okay."
Mo Jiangqing smiled helplessly, "Father, that's not necessary. Mother isn't drunk, do I need to be reminded to walk?"
Mo Liujin didn't answer. After Chu Qingmeng stepped onto the platform, Mo Liujin continued, "Lift your foot, the threshold. Take one step, go down three steps."
Chu Qingmeng did as she was told. Mo Jiangche sensed something was wrong and grabbed Chu Qingmeng, waving his hand in front of her eyes. He exclaimed in surprise, "Mother?! It was fine before we sat down to eat! When did this happen?!"
"It's okay, just keep your voice down and go back to the yard first." Chu Qingmeng looked at Mo Jiangche with unfocused eyes.
The family returned to the courtyard, and Feiying had already summoned Quan Si. Chu Qingmeng had just entered the room and sat down when Quan Si came over to take his pulse. His brow furrowed, and he asked in confusion, "Master Jiu's pulse is fine. It's just that there are some deficiencies that haven't been replenished. I haven't stopped taking the medicine lately. Master, have you ever hit your head or anything like that?"
Chu Qingmeng shook his head. "No. If I had, I would have come to you right away. I wouldn't have waited until now."
Quan Si pondered for a moment, and then confirmed that she had not eaten anything strange or had her medicine changed. Quan Si was overwhelmed, "Master, I am not very skilled. I need to go back and read some medical books. Please wait for my news."
Chu Qingmeng waved his hand to signal him to leave, then looked at his two sons and said, "Go back. It's late, and I have nothing to do here."
Not hearing the two brothers leave, Chu Qingmeng smiled and said, "Alright, it's getting late. Quan Si has already said that I'm fine. If you guys are still worried, I need to rest. Okay, go back and rest quickly. You drank so much, remember to drink some sobering soup."
After sending the two brothers away, Chu Qingmeng turned back to look for Mo Liujin, "Ah Jin?"
"I'm here." Mo Liujin had stood beside her without her knowing. He held her hand and they slowly walked back to the bed.
Perhaps it was because she felt insecure because she couldn't see him, but Chu Qingmeng didn't sleep well. She spent most of the night snuggling up to Mo Liujin. Even if she fell asleep for a while, she would still hug his arm or put her arm around his waist. This was something she had never experienced before. Most of the time, it was Mo Liujin who held her, but because of his injuries, he couldn't hold her sideways. Sensing her uneasiness, Mo Liujin would touch her head from time to time.
It wasn't until the next morning that Chu Qingmeng heard the sound of Mo Liujin getting up and flipping through a book that she opened her eyes. Although she couldn't see, it didn't stop her from closing her eyes and pretending to be asleep. Seeing that she was awake, Mo Liujin asked with some reluctance, "Are you feeling better?"
Chu Qingmeng just smiled softly and said nothing. Mo Liujin sighed and pulled her into his arms, but Chu Qingmeng was afraid of pressing on his wound, but she also wanted to be close to him, so she just lay on his lower abdomen, motionless. Mo Liujin held a book in one hand and gently stroked her long hair with the other. With her head resting on him, Chu Qingmeng fell into a drowsy sleep and felt more at ease. He knew that she was also afraid, but she didn't dare to show it because she was concerned about the emotions of the people around her. Mo Liujin was distressed and stopped stroking her long hair, and put his hand on her shoulder.
At 7:00 PM, Chun He knocked twice on the door and came in. Mo Liu Jin shook his head, silencing him. Chun He understood and quietly took a wet towel and mouthwash for Mo Liu Jin to wash up. Just as they finished cleaning up, Chu Qing Meng woke up. "Chun He?"
"Yes, Princess." Chunhe felt so distressed when he saw Chu Qingmeng with lifeless eyes.
"Help me put on my makeup." This was the first time Chu Qingmeng asked Chunhe to help her put on her clothes.
"Don't you want to sleep a little longer?" Mo Liujin stopped her. She didn't sleep well last night.
"I don't feel like sleeping anymore. It doesn't feel good to be in the dark all the time." Chu Qingmeng turned his head to face the direction where Mo Liujin's voice came from.
Chunhe was combing her hair when the two brothers arrived. They greeted Mo Liujin as soon as they entered the house. Just a glance with their father told them that Chu Qingmeng still couldn't see them, and all the hope in their hearts disappeared.
However, when Chu Qingmeng heard their voices, a sly smile suddenly appeared on her face. She turned her head to face them. Mo Liujin also laughed when he saw her like this. What bad idea was she planning?
"Feiying." Chu Qingmeng called out. After hearing Feiying's response, Chu Qingmeng asked, "Have Wenzhong's files been delivered?"
Feiying was confused. Why would the master ask about the sect when he couldn't see him? "Yes, it has been sent. In addition to the cases that the master had not reviewed before, there has been a backlog of about three or four days, and some of the Qianji Pavilion's files have been incorporated into the files."
After a brief thought, Chu Qingmeng replied, "Go tell Wen Zhong not to merge the Qianji Pavilion into the fifth floor for the time being. Tell him to manage the two separately and send the files separately."
"Yes." Feiying took the order and left.
Mo Liujin raised his eyebrows. What did he remember again?
