Luo Jingrui had always managed to keep his emotions from showing on his face, and Doctor Luo was seeing him express his feelings openly for the first time, which made him sense the severity of the situation. He hurriedly put down his chopsticks, stood up, and he and Luo Jingrui rushed back to the Apricot Forest Hall, with Yang Cheng'an following closely behind.
Lady Luo had no desire to stay any longer and, after apologizing to Yang Mengchen, prepared to take Luo Jingyao back with her.
Someone was sent to inform Nangong Lingfei, Yang Mengchen, and his three older brothers, as well as Lady Luo and her son as they hurried to Apricot Forest Hall, which Magistrate Xiao's family also attended.
In the back courtyard of Apricot Forest Hall lay a young man with his eyes tightly shut, lying flat on a bed, his face as white as snow, with no trace of color, and no movement in his chest.
