Chapter 294: Chapter 294 I Will Take Responsibility
After seven or eight minutes of busy work, the poisoned blood was finally all expelled through the Silver Needle and washed down the drain with hot water.
Under the effect of hot water, Li Feier’s entire body had turned a flushed red.
Chen Wei first turned off the shower, then withdrew the needles.
He then lifted the cleansed and now normal Li Feier out of the bathtub and laid her on the bed.
In his urgency, Chen Wei realized that he had rented a double room, so it didn’t matter if one bed got wet.
First things first, he dried off Li Feier’s body. The poison may have been resolved, but catching a cold or getting a fever wouldn’t be good.
The more inner layers of her clothing had absorbed quite a bit of water, and it just wouldn’t do to leave them on her.
So, Chen Wei made a bold decision, closed his eyes, and removed all of Li Feier’s clothes, finally laying her on the other bed and quickly covering her with a quilt. He did it all in one go without dragging his feet.
"I just hope this girl won’t blame me when she wakes up," Chen Wei said with a wry smile.
He then took out his phone, made the payment, and contacted the hotel to purchase various ingredients to have the kitchen help stew a pot of Qi and Blood Replenishing Soup.
The poison had reached her internal organs, and Chen Wei had made Li Feier bleed quite a lot to completely cleanse it. If she didn’t drink something to replenish her qi and blood when she woke up, it would likely be difficult for her to get out of bed and walk for the next few days.
Suddenly involved for no reason, Chen Wei felt it was only right that he took responsibility.
Time passed, and Li Feier slowly opened her eyes to the sound of knocking on the door.
She felt completely weak, barely able to open her eyes, and when she did manage, it was hardly different from having them closed.
She vaguely heard two strangers’ voices. "Within the bounds of the Imperial Capital, to have let the Heavenly God suffer an assassination attempt, as the White Tiger War God, I deserve a thousand deaths. I await the Heavenly God’s punishment!"
"Wei Shuyang is also at fault! Please punish me as well, Heavenly God!"
White Tiger War God...
Wei Shuyang... Li Feier had heard that name before, she had seen him on TV receiving the War God Medal, a very formidable person.
Why would they be in her home?
"Don’t give me that nonsense. Have you found out who wants me dead?" Chen Wei didn’t like beating around the bush and asked directly.
"My people are still investigating, and so far there are no results," replied Li Yunhu, nearly bursting with anger. He wanted to find the mastermind more than anyone at this point.
To think that someone would attempt to assassinate the Heavenly God of Protecting the Country right after he took his position, and within his own jurisdiction no less—how could he not be furious? It was clear that someone was worried he was sitting too securely in his position and decided to throw a wrench in his works.
"I don’t have any results on my end yet either. Please grant the Heavenly God more time. I will definitely uncover the identities of those assassins," Wei Shuyang said. Before coming here, he had already dispatched people in all directions to investigate, erasing all surveillance video relating to Chen Wei and eyewitnesses... to prevent anyone from exploiting the situation.
"Fine, you two go back first. Let me know the moment you have results. I want to see who is so eager for me to die," Chen Wei said.
"Heavenly God, please take care. We will take our leave," said Wei Shuyang and Li Yunhu as they left the hotel room. They exchanged glances, both sighing in relief, as they had feared they might not leave the room alive today.
After Wei Shuyang and Li Yunhu had left,
Chen Wei returned to the bedside. By then, Li Feier had the strength to open her eyes and was just looking at him, without speaking.
"Awake? Your body is still very weak. I’ve had the hotel stew a pot of Qi and Blood Replenishing Soup for you. Try to drink more of it," said Chen Wei as he took the clay pot from the warming cabinet.
Placed on the bedside table, a rich fragrance immediately assailed her nostrils, making Li Feier feel suddenly ravenous.
"Come on, I’ll help you sit up." Seeing Li Feier struggling to lift her arm, trying to prop herself up, Chen Wei quickly stepped forward.
As she sat up, the blanket naturally slid off.
Just as it was about to fall to her chest, Chen Wei hurriedly caught it and explained, "Don’t misunderstand, I didn’t mean to take off all your clothes on purpose, I was worried you’d catch a cold wearing the wet clothes ... But rest assured, I closed my eyes at the time—I didn’t see anything."
"It’s ... okay ..." Li Feier weakly squeezed out three words from her mouth.
"Here, hold the blanket down, you don’t need to use your hands, I’ll feed you. As for the clothes, I’ve already sent them to dry."
"Mmh."
Chen Wei ladled out a bowl of thick soup and sat by the bed, spoon-feeding Li Feier one mouthful at a time.
Li Feier was being spoonfed, but her large, spirited eyes remained fixed on Chen Wei’s face.
"Is there something on my face?" Chen Wei couldn’t help but feel a bit uneasy.
Li Feier shook her head, "I just want to get a good look at my savior and see what he looks like."
Upon hearing this, Chen Wei let out a self-deprecating laugh, "What kind of savior am I? If it hadn’t been for me, you wouldn’t have been poisoned."
"But you did save my life, didn’t you?" After drinking the Qi and Blood Replenishing Soup that Chen Wei had asked the kitchen to stew, Li Feier felt her strength returning considerably, and could speak with ease and freedom.
"If you want to think of it that way, I can’t help it." Chen Wei didn’t know what to say, and at this moment, it was better to let Li Feier have her way.
Before long, a large pot of Qi and Blood Replenishing Soup had been polished off by Li Feier without a trace left.
Li Feier, with one hand pressing the blanket to her chest and the other reaching out trying to make a fist, said, "I feel much stronger now, this soup is really miraculous."
"Exclusive recipe. If you like, I can write it down for you later. You can take it back and make it from time to time. It’s good for your recovery."
"I can’t cook. It’d be nice to find someone willing to stew soup for me."
Hearing Li Feier’s words, Chen Wei couldn’t help but smile, "Are you hinting at something here?"
"Am I? But since you mentioned it, let’s just say that’s what I’m doing," Li Feier responded with a playful smile.
"Stewing soup is certainly no problem, but I will have to return to River City before long. Even if I could send this soup by the fastest air freight, it probably wouldn’t be fresh anymore." Chen Wei assumed Li Feier lived in the Imperial Capital.
"By that time, I should also be back in River City. I just came here to visit my parents during the holiday," Li Feier clarified.
"If you’re in River City, you can find me whenever you want to drink it. Before you’re completely recovered, I will take responsibility," Chen Wei promised.
"What if I never recover fully? You’re not going to take care of me for the rest of my life, are you?" Li Feier joked.
"Hmm ..."
"What are you thinking about?" Seeing that Chen Wei hadn’t spoken for a while, Li Feier asked worriedly, "You’re not having second thoughts, are you?"
"No, I’m thinking, if I take care of you for a lifetime, where could I possibly lose out." Chen Wei crossed his arms, resting his chin on his hand, with a pensive expression.
"Have you figured it out yet?" Li Feier asked again.
"I really can’t think of any. It seems I have nothing to lose," Chen Wei said with a smile.
"I don’t either, so isn’t that great for both of us?"
