After the afternoon recess, Gu Yan took half a day off to get an injection at the hospital, as she was not feeling well.
When she got back to the Lu Mansion, Mama Zhang was herding the ducks in the garden.
"Ms. Gu? Why are you so early today?"
Gu Yan's face was sickly pale. Holding the cup of warm water in her hand, she continued to walk inside as she replied, "I'm not used to the climate here."
Then, she paused for a moment before asking, "How's Brother Yushen doing today?"
"Well, after Young Master Yushen took the medicine, I lit up the incense for him in his room as you told me. He just woke up, and I guess he's making a hairpin for Ms. Fu Zhi right now."
Gu Yan froze in her tracks.
