Chapter 711: Chapter 711: Panic (1)_1

"Prince." Just as the room was filled with laughter, and Lin Ziyin was blushing with embarrassment, Mr. Bai Xian, the butler, walked in with a serious look on his face.

"What’s the matter?" Chu Suifeng’s face turned serious too, and the room quieted down.

"The old lady has woken up and wants to see the prince and the princess." Mr. Bai Xian was accompanied by someone, from his outfit, one could tell that he was a servant from the Marquis Residence.

As expected, right after Bai Xian’s words fell, the servant kneeled down anxiously with a distressed look on his face, "My lord, I am a servant from the Marquis Residence. I came especially to inform you that the old lady has woken up. It happened shortly after you left."

Chu Suifeng did not ask about the old lady’s specific condition because he already knew that once the old lady woke up, it would be a fleeting resurgence of vitality. Even the Fairy Daluo could not bring back the old lady’s life.

"Let’s go." Chu Suifeng stood up quickly. However, he did not forget about Lin Ziyin. After standing up, his movements slowed down.

Lin Ziyin was well aware of what was going to happen. She did not have time to comfort Chu Suifeng and was instantly pulled by Chu Suifeng’s large hand, "Put on your clothes before we leave."

Even in such urgency, Chu Suifeng still cared about her first.

"Okay." Thinking that Chu Suifeng still thought of taking care of her in such a critical situation, Lin Ziyin felt warm inside. Only a man who truly loves a woman would consider her in everything and pay attention to the smallest details.

After Lin Ziyin put on the white fox cape, hat, and scarf, they hurriedly got into the carriage and headed towards the Marquis Residence.

On the way, Lin Ziyin held Chu Suifeng’s hand inside the carriage, offering silent support and comfort.

"Don’t worry, I have you." Chu Suifeng only had these words throughout the journey, indicating how low his spirits were.

"Yes, you also have me." Lin Ziyin responded affirmatively. Chu Suifeng closed his eyes slightly upon hearing this and pulled her into his embrace. Only when Lin Ziyin was close to him did he feel a warmth in his heart and a sense of peace.

The carriage quickly pulled over in front of the Marquis Residence. Every servant in the house wore an anxious expression. After seeing them arrive and hastily salute, they hurriedly moved out of the way.

Chu Suifeng, holding Lin Ziyin’s hand, quickly walked into the courtyard without stopping, to the living quarters of the old lady.

"Prince, Princess." Nanny Qilan had been waiting in the cold wind at the courtyard gate for Chu Suifeng and Lin Ziyin’s arrival. The moment she saw them, she couldn’t help shedding tears, "The old lady is waiting for the prince and princess in the room."

Chu Suifeng paused a step, then continued walking towards the room with Lin Ziyin.

All the descendants of the Li Family were gathered in the room, including the offspring of the Marquis Li. Chu Suifeng’s arrival quieted down all the Li family children who were trying to attend to the old lady.

"Prince." The old lady was leaning against the quilts, and she was excited when she saw Chu Suifeng and Lin Ziyin come over.

"Grandmother." Chu Suifeng softly called out. Marquis Li and the others immediately made way for him.

Lin Ziyin who was standing beside Chu Suifeng saw the rosy complexion on the old lady’s face and heaved a small sigh. It was highly abnormal for a person who had been bedridden for several days to have a rosy face.

The old lady was indeed experiencing a fleeting resurgence of vitality.

"This humble servant greets the prince and princess." The old lady tried to get out of bed to salute, but Chu Suifeng immediately held her shoulder, "Grandmother, the princess and I are not strangers, there’s no need for such formalities."

Hearing this, the old lady didn’t insist any further. Instead, with a worried face, she looked at Chu Suifeng, "It is said that the Imperial Court has issued a decree?"
