The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 274

Chapter 274: 156 Great Disaster Looming (Gu Jinyu)

Gu Changqing gave a cold look, picked up the medicine bowl, and gently began to feed Gu Yan.

Gu Changqing was the oldest brother, and he had two younger brothers. Even though he was not much older than them, ever since their birth mother’s early demise, the stepmother had joined the family, and their father’s eyes were filled only with the stepmother and her pair of children.

Some things couldn’t be provided by servants, so he had gained experience caring for his two younger brothers.

Of course, Gu Yan was different from Gu Chengfeng and Gu Chenglin, he was too weak, and had to be treated as delicately as a newly born kitten.

Gu Yan, in his daze, tasted the bitterness and rejected it with a protrusion of his tongue, pushing the spoon out.

A few drops of medicine splashed onto Gu Changqing’s hand.

Gu Changqing wasn’t annoyed, he sat by the bedside and helped to prop up Gu Yan with a pillow.

Then he scooped another spoon to feed Gu Yan.

Gu Yan turned his head away and lay against the pillow, refusing to drink.

Gu Changqing had plenty of experience dealing with this kind of situation. There were some candied fruits on the table, so he picked one up and held it near Gu Yan’s mouth.

Gu Yan licked the piece, tasted the sweetness, and opened his mouth to eat. But Gu Changqing extended the spoon and fed the medicine into his mouth.

Gu Yan’s eyes widened in surprise, totally stunned!

This was also how Gu Changqing fed medicine to Gu Chenglin when he was young; the same expression was on his face too. But truth be told, Gu Chenglin was not as adorable as Gu Yan.

Gu Yan was flushed from the fever; a tuft of hair was pointed upward on his head.

Gu Changqing was reminded of a goofy fawn he saw during a hunt.

Probably, he won’t be able to treat a fawn as a hunting animal from now on.

Gu Yan, delirious from the fever, failed to register Gu Changqing’s presence and believed he was dreaming. He absent-mindedly allowed all the medicine to be fed to him.

Gu Changqing rewarded him with another piece of candied fruit.

He did not eat it, but held it in his hand.

Gu Changqing wondered, “Why aren’t you eating?”

Gu Yan responded pitifully, “If I wake and the candied fruit is still there, then I’ll know it wasn’t a dream.”

His cough was severe, causing his voice to become hoarse. Even without looking at his expression, anyone could hear the victimization in his voice.

Was he upset because I hadn’t visited him lately?
