章 59: Chapter 57 Concubine's Grievance

Clutching her stomach accidentally tugged at her wound, causing her to grimace in pain and her brows to furrow tightly together.

Shen Chuwei was the kind who felt unbearably hungry if she missed a meal, and now that she hadn't eaten for nearly a day, she was so hungry that her stomach felt like it was stuck to her back.

She didn't have the energy to speak, actually because the injury was too severe and painful.

When Xiao Jinyan heard her say she was hungry, he ordered Qin Xiao, "Go and bring the food over."

"Yes." Qin Xiao quickly strode out to follow the command.

In no time at all, he brought the food over and placed it on the low table.

On seeing the food, Shen Chuwei was probably so starving that she forgot about her injuries and couldn't wait to start eating.

She propped herself up with her hands on the bed, but the movement was a bit too abrupt, and as soon as she exerted force, she aggravated her wound. The pain made her gasp, and she fell heavily back onto the bed.
