"Miss..."
"Miss, my lord..."
"Miss, my lord, where are you?"
The sky had darkened completely. Ji Qingchi carried the sleeping Su Yi and, after walking roughly for some time, she spotted torches ahead and voices calling out for them.
Ji Qingchi approached closer, she saw the guards and maids who had accompanied them, holding torches and searching for their whereabouts.
Yan Shen was the first to spot them. She rushed over with a torch, calling out, "Miss! Come quickly! The miss and young lord are here!"
The guards and maids from the Su household swiftly surrounded them. Seeing Ji Qingchi carrying the sleeping Su Yi, they were all alarmed. If anything happened to the young miss, they'd face their master's wrath.
Seeing the pale face of the maid who had come to received them, Ji Qingchi explained, "The wife only fainted. A skilled person checked on her; she's fine, but we still need to find a physician."
The disappearance of both the miss and young lord couldn't be concealed.
Shortly after they left, Yan Shen had someone contact the Su household's master. When Ji Qingchi brought Su Yi back, the Su household master arrived in haste with attendants.
"Yier, Yi'er..."
The Su household master was nearly frantic. She quickly approached and took Su Yi from Ji Qingchi's back. Meanwhile, the senior physician, pushed forward by the steward, examined Su Yi before muttering, "Strange..."
The Su household master grabbed the physician's collar in agitation. "What's wrong with my Yi'er?"
Her grip was so tight that the old physician nearly choked.
Fortunately, she had just been at home enjoying some wine when the Su household master's men forcefully took her away. Riding frantically all the way, she hadn't caught her breath.
Seeing this, Ji Qingchi gently held the Su household master's wrist. "Mother, please calm down and listen to the physician."
The Su household master felt a weight lift off her hand. She instinctively let go.
The physician breathed a sigh of relief. "The young miss's condition has improved compared to before. Her pulse is steadier. She's not as weak as before."
The Su household master was overjoyed.
"Really?"
"Indeed."
"Good, good! As long as Yi'er is fine!"
The Su household master was ecstatic, generously rewarding the physician. Then, she remembered to ask Ji Qingchi, "What happened?"
Ji Qingchi told the sequence of events leading to their arrival and incidentally mentioned the encounter with the mysterious woman.
Regarding the poison in Su Yi's body, after some thought, Ji Qingchi decided to keep that information hidden.
The Su household master had consulted numerous physicians for Su Yi; it was impossible for her not to know about the poisoning. However, she never disclosed it, indicating there was more to the situation.
After hearing this, the Su household master was even more happy. The steward, sensing the mood, hastily added, "Madam, this is heaven's blessing."
"Indeed."
The Su household master was extremely pleased, looking at Ji Qingchi as if she were a savior of the utmost benevolence. "A virtuous son-in-law is truly the fortune of our Su family."
