章 1246: How Cold She Felt Then

By the time Lu Tingchen made his way over, Ling Lihua was already done diagnosing Chu Jiu. She was not surprised to see Lu Tingchen walk in. She bent over to push Chu Jiu's hand back under the blanket and tucked her in properly before saying with a sigh, "This lady has been stretched thin and also hasn't been resting well for a long period of time, which has caused her health to be seriously compromised. Even though her fever is gone, her body is still quite weak. She needs to recuperate slowly to regain her health."

Lu Tingchen turned to look at her. The candlelight was dim in the tent and the person lying in bed was covered in shadows. She was curled up in a bunch and made quite the pitiful sight.

When this thought crossed Lu Tingchen's mind, he thought something was wrong with him.

Chu Jiu was strong enough to carry a full-grown man and was in no way a weak woman.

Lu Tingchen was shocked at the thought that had crossed his mind.
