He was grateful to Lu Ziyan for saving his sister and preventing her from a disaster.
He also really believed that his sister was just as Lu Ziyan said, and after being rescued by him, she let down her guard and accepted him again.
But not long after, news of Xie Wan Ning's death reached the capital.
It was truly a bolt from the blue, and it dealt a heavy blow to the Xie family.
For nearly a year, the sky above the Xuanping Marquis Mansion was gloomy.
Xie Yanyu started coughing softly.
Xie Wan Ning only then noticed her brother's pale face and couldn't help but ask worriedly, "Brother, are you sick?"
"Yes," Xie Yanyu couldn't help himself and pinched her cheek, saying lightly, "The little sister I have protected since childhood got into trouble, and she got sick out of grief."
"..." Xie Wanning was silent for a moment and tried to pull his sleeve, "It's my fault."
As she spoke, her eyes began to redden again, "It's all my fault. I'm unfilial."
She was thinking, how sad her father, brother, and mother would be if the news of her death in her previous life got back to them.
In both of her lives, she had caused them worry.
"Okay, stop crying." Xie Yanyu couldn't bear to see his sister cry, so he wiped her tears and coaxed her, "I'm glad you're okay. Your parents are still healthy. You don't need to blame yourself."
He still felt like he was in a dream, full of unreality.
Thinking about it, he couldn't help but scolded with a stern face: "You are too bold!"
In such a chaotic world, a young girl actually walked thousands of miles alone, from north to south.
Before she was abducted by the Jin thieves, she was just a noble lady who was pampered in a marquis's mansion and had never even left the capital.
In order to reach Bianzhou safely, one must not only be brave but also be careful.
...His sister is really smart.
No matter how naughty your own children are, they are still your own.
Xie Yanyu was in this state of mind at the moment. Looking at his lost and found sister, he felt that everything about her was precious. Even her bulging belly looked round and cute.
The brother and sister were very affectionate, looking at each other and talking to each other, choking up with sobs from time to time.
Ji Chengfeng and Chen Xier listened quietly at the side without interrupting.
The warmth was interrupted only by the arrival of the court doctor.
Xie Wan Ning obediently stretched out her wrist.
She is not a person who does not take care of her body, so of course there is nothing serious. Even the baby in her belly is fine.
After hearing the doctor's words, Xie Yanyu, who had been tense all the time, relaxed his expression. He was about to ask the doctor to leave, but his wrist was grabbed by his sister.
"You look sick to my eyes," Xie Wan Ning pulled his hand, rolled up his sleeves, and said to the court doctor, "Please, doctor, take my pulse again."
Her brother looked very pale and coughed from time to time, so Xie Wan Ning was of course worried.
Xie Yanyu wanted to take his hand back, but found that his sister was holding it too tightly. He smiled helplessly and let her go.
This time, the court doctor took the patient's pulse for a long time.
Finally, when Xie Wan Ning couldn't help but frown, he said leisurely: "Excessive grief will cause the pent-up energy to enter the internal organs, which is the most devastating to the heart. Fortunately, the young master is young and his foundation is not damaged. He just needs to recuperate for a while."
Too much grief...
Xie Wan Ning covered her lips tightly, but her eyes turned red instantly.
She thought her brother was joking when he said that his sister had gotten into trouble and was so sad that she fell ill.
I didn’t expect that…it was actually true.
My brother is so sad that he is too heartbroken...what about her parents?
"Why are you crying?"
After the court doctor wrote a prescription and left, Xie Yanyu reached out and patted his sister's shoulder, "Father and mother are indeed sad. Now that you are fine, I will write a letter to them later. When they know it, all their illnesses will be cured." (End of this chapter)
