Chapter 338: Two People Who Missed Each Other
Hearing this, Wen Baizhi paused holding the chopsticks.
No matter how much she wanted Si Jiu to change, she didn't want to see Si Jiu sick or miserable.
"Yeah."
She didn't know what to ask now. After all, she was not the one who went to pack up and meet Si Jiu.
Cuizhi had no way of understanding everything comprehensively.
But Cuizhi still told what she saw and heard.
"When I went to knock on the door, no one came to open it at first. If I hadn't asked in advance, I would have thought that the governor was not in the room. But then I heard a sound like something fell to the floor in the room, and then I knocked on the door a second time."
"The Dugong came to open the door. When he opened the door, I saw that his face looked even worse. After I put away your things, I turned around and saw that the Dugong's face looked even worse. I asked him if he wanted to help call Doctor Rong."
"But the governor shook his head to indicate that it was not necessary, so I did not stay there to disturb him."
Cuizhi is a very meticulous person. She is particularly careful in taking care of Wen Baizhi, which makes her very observant in other aspects.
She described almost everything she saw to Wen Baizhi.
Based on Wen Baizhi's long understanding of Si Jiu, she could immediately guess Si Jiu's general situation at that time.
She asked Cuizhi: "Cuizhi, did you notice whether the quilt on his bed was spread out?"
Cuizhi pursed her lips and recalled: "It seems not."
Wen Baizhi showed an expression of as expected: "That means he didn't sleep all night last night, at least he didn't sleep in bed. The sound you heard when you knocked on the door should be the sound of him falling down. He must have not rested well or for some other reason, so he is very weak now, so weak that he doesn't even have the strength to get up and open the door."
Wen Baizhi didn't say the rest to Cuizhi.
One thing she hoped Si Jiu could change was not to give up on himself and not to punish himself masochistically because of her or any other person or thing.
She hoped that Si Jiu could have his own ideas and try to take good care of himself, regardless of whether she was by his side or not.
But Si Jiu can't do it now, she knows it clearly.
So she didn't want Si Jiu to change this for the time being. She just thought that if Si Jiu could take the initiative to tell her his feelings, it would be a great victory.
After all, food needs to be eaten one bite at a time, and people need to change slowly, bit by bit.
Cuizhi had no right to say anything: "Miss, are you going out this afternoon?"
Wen Baizhi: "Of course, didn't I tell you that I have something to do outside, so I must go out."
Cuizhi frowned: "But Miss, you already know that the Dugong may not be in a good condition now, but you still want to go out and find the Dugong?"
Wen Baizhi was not surprised to hear Cuizhi say this.
"Silly Cuizhi, it's true that I love Sijiu very much, and I'm also the person who least wants to see him get hurt, all of that is true.
But Cuizhi, I love him, but I also have to love myself, and I have to do my own things. What's more, I have already told him the reasons for the conflict between us, and even told him how to solve this problem. I think I have done very well, and there is nothing else to add.
I might give him and us some time, especially him. I have to give him time to change. If he really can't change, then we can talk about it later. But at least now, I have to let him know my true thoughts, otherwise I will be depressed to death.
Cuizhi, you may not know it now, but I still want to tell you that for us girls, it is not wrong to like someone, and it is never too much to like him/her. But no matter how much you like him/her, you must not forget to like yourself, you know, and not letting yourself down is the most important thing. "
Wen Baizhi didn't expect Cuizhi to understand what she said now.
After all, many truths actually require the person involved to experience the things themselves before they can truly understand them.
But what she didn't know was that Cuizhi actually had someone hidden in her heart.
She was also moved by what he said.
"Miss, I know, I am shallow."
Wen Baizhi touched Cuizhi's head and said, "Go and help me find Ping'an later. Please prepare a carriage for me. I will need it when I go out in the afternoon."
Cuizhi nodded with sparkling eyes: "I understand, Miss. I will complete the task."
Both of them laughed at this remark.
After a simple meal, Wen Baizhi's appetite was still not very good.
Maybe people’s appetite is really related to their mood.
No matter how much she talked in front of Cuizhi, she couldn't help but worry when she heard that Sijiu was not in good condition.
Especially since she was not with Si Jiu, she became even more worried.
But she had to endure it, and endure it again.
If Si Jiu dragged his sick body to find her now and told her that he was feeling uncomfortable and needed her.
Then she wasn't going anywhere.
She will always stay by Si Jiu's side.
If only before she left in the afternoon.
Even Wen Baizhi didn't notice that she had already started looking forward to it.
Looking forward to Si Jiu coming to find me.
But the person she was waiting for was curled up on the bed, holding his belly and rolling around.
Si Jiu's stomach ached so much that even pressing hard on his abdomen couldn't suppress the pain at all.
All the pain rushed towards him.
He was powerless to resist and could only roll around on the bed in pain.
Si Jiu was sweating profusely from the pain, and he didn't even have a hand free to wipe the sweat off himself.
His forehead was also rubbing against the bed.
The veins on the back of his hand bulged out, winding as if they were about to burst out.
Halfway through the pain, he felt like vomiting again.
He then laid down on the edge of the bed again, not having the energy to care where he vomited. It was difficult to clean up, so he could only vomit all over the floor.
As he expected, what he vomited out was just the yellow water in his stomach, and the smell was very unpleasant.
Only after he had vomited out the little gastric juice left in his stomach did Si Jiu lie back on the bed, holding his stomach.
He kept breathing heavily, and before he could recover, he felt nauseous again.
But this time it felt obviously different. It wasn't until he spat out a mouthful of blood on the ground that he realized what was different.
It must be gastric bleeding again.
Si Jiu wiped the blood from the corner of his lips without caring.
In fact, he wanted to look for Wen Baizhi when Cuizhi packed up her things and left.
Even though he still doesn't know what he really needs to change, he still wants to return to Wen Baizhi.
But before he could walk out of the room, he fainted from the pain.
When he woke up, he had the same stomachache that kept him from resting.
Si Jiu really didn't even have the strength to get up.
When he finally regained some strength and the pain was not so intense, he went to find Wen Baizhi.
But he learned that Wen Baizhi had already left in a carriage.
