Zhou Xin smiled, “Ms. Qiao, no need to worry. There’s no way we’d forget about the young master.”
Just then, the firefox dashed in from the outside and used its little paws to claw at his pants.
“Ack, ack, ack!”
Don’t forget about me!
Zhou Xin was startled as he stared at the fox, “What is it trying to say?”
Before Qiao Qing could answer, Mu Jinghang smiled, “That little fella’s asking you for food.”
After being with his third brother for so long and being so close with Qingqing the tiger, he understood the basics of animal keeping.
“Ah, I see!” Zhou Xin slapped his own forehead, “Look at me! I forgot that like humans, animals need to eat too. This fox sure is smart. I heard that this was the fox that fetched the young master’s medicine bottle.”
He then looked at everyone else and asked, “What does it usually eat? I’ll ask the maids to cook.”
Mu Jinghang smiled, “It’s not picky. You can feed it a wild rabbit or a duck.”
The firefox nodded.
The food mentioned was lavish and delicious for him.
Zhou Xin said to the maids, “Go prepare for the fox.”
The maids answered the demands and hurried to the kitchen. Zhou Xin then took the food meant for Leng Yan upstairs.
After dinner, the machinery and books Qiao Qing requested were delivered via air.
This act itself fully represented how convenient it was to be rich.
Everyone was about to order some people to take everything down when someone else visited.
After Leng Jie, everyone thought this was another one of the unusual Leng relatives. None of them had a kind look in their eyes as the visitor walked in.
The visitor was just as surprised to see people here.
“There are guests here today?”
The familiar greeting made everyone narrow their eyes.
Tang Yun felt everyone’s defensiveness and tilted his head, “W… What’s wrong?”
Zhou Xin walked downstairs and saw this scene, “Don’t misunderstand. This is the young master’s friend.”
He then turned to look at the man, “Young master Tang, you are here to see the young master?”
Tang Yun nodded then glanced at everyone, “What’s happening?”
“Ah, Ms. Qiao is a friend of the young master’s. She’s staying here to help cure the young master’s illness.”
Tang Yun’s eyes flashed with surprise. Excited, he looked over to Qiao Qing, “You have a way to cure him?!”
“Not yet,” Qiao Qing answered, “But I will do my best to cure him.”
The hope in Tang Yun’s eyes faded at once, “Did you know that the doctor said he has at most a month left? You have the confidence to cure him within a month?”
“I don’t have the confidence,” Qiao Qing said, “But I must try.”
She then ignored him and looked over to Zhou Xin, “Is there a big room inside the castle? A room big enough for lab equipment.”
Zhou Xin nodded, “Yes.”
After the machinery was set up, Qiao Qing took Leng Yan’s blood for a blood test and started to do her research. She entered into a new era of being busy.
She basically started to forget to sleep and eat.
She ate her dinner inside the study room and stayed up well past 12am.
At 3:00 am, Jun Yexuan shut the book in front of her, “If you keep this up, you’re going to die from exhaustion before you figure out a way to help him.”
Qiao Qing rubbed her eyes and said to Jun Yexuan, “I have a month. Maybe even less. I’m out here trying to steal someone away from the grim reaper.”
