"You, what are you doing getting up! Lie down quickly!" Mrs. Liu hurriedly stepped over to support Bai Qingyan.

She wiped the deathly pale color from her lips with a handkerchief and smiled at Mrs. Liu, "It was just for show! Second Aunt, please don’t worry."

Mrs. Liu almost cried out in fright earlier. She took the handkerchief from Bai Qingyan’s hand, rubbed the white greasy substance from it, and only then realized Bai Qingyan had applied something to her lips. "You... you nearly scared Second Aunt to death!"

Mrs. Liu scolded Bai Qingyan but understood that Bai Qingyan wouldn’t use such a method unless it was absolutely necessary.

"Why didn’t you send someone back to inform us in advance? I could have prepared! You’re always afraid of the cold. If you had sent someone back earlier, I would have made sure the Earth Dragon was burning brightly!" Mrs. Liu tucked Bai Qingyan in while speaking.

"It happened suddenly, Second Aunt, please forgive me. Next time, if Kid comes back, we will definitely send someone to inform Second Aunt in advance." Bai Qingyan smiled at Mrs. Liu. "In front of others, I’ll need Second Aunt to cover for me!"

"Second Aunt understands! Second Aunt understands!" Mrs. Liu patted Bai Qingyan’s hand. "Just rest and recuperate here at home. All the servants in Qinghui Courtyard are loyal; this matter will not spread outside."

"Thank you, Second Aunt!" Bai Qingyan said to Mrs. Liu.

"What are you saying? Second Aunt is just doing her part... The weight of the Bai family is all on your shoulders! You must take good care of yourself!" Mrs. Liu squeezed Bai Qingyan’s hand tightly.

After hearing the news, Bai Jinxiu at Qin Mansion learned that Bai Qingyan had coughed up blood at the Crown Prince’s residence. She guessed it was likely part of her elder sister’s plan, but still couldn’t stay calm. She handed Wang Geer to Qin Lang, who was studying hard for the upcoming Spring Festival examination, and ordered someone to prepare a carriage to return to the Princess of Zhen’s residence immediately.

Qin Lang was also very worried and carried Wang Geer to the door while advising, "If your elder sister’s condition is not good, it’s fine if you don’t come back tonight. I will take good care of Wang Geer!"

Wang Geer, in his mother’s arms, reached out with his small hands adorned with longevity bracelets. Seeing his mother board the carriage without him, he cried loudly with his little mouth pouting.

Bai Jinxiu lifted the curtain, looked at Wang Geer struggling and crying in Qin Lang’s arms, and her eyes became wet. "Be good, Wang Geer, Mother will be back soon..."

After speaking, Bai Jinxiu couldn’t bear to watch Wang Geer cry any longer. She let go of the curtain and urged the driver to leave quickly.
