How I Pampered the Tyrant Into Devotion With My Space-Chapter 560: Three Minutes Left to Kick the Bucket
Then Shen Wanqing was brought back, and the steward quickly led Shen Wanqing towards Pei Yu while apologizing to her.
When Shen Wanqing saw Pei Yu’s smiling face, she was so angry she could explode.
Pei Yu said, "Bring her into my room."
Shen Wanqing didn’t want to say a word. The three children stood there instead.
Shen Wanqing said, "Quickly go find your sister and let her give you the medicine."
Pei Lingxuan stood there, reluctant to leave.
Shen Wanqing spoke with a cold face.
"Pei Lingxuan, listen, take good care of your brothers, sisters, and your sister."
Pei Lingxuan nodded with reddened eyes, "Will you come back, Mother?"
Shen Wanqing nodded, "I will come back, don’t worry."
Pei Lingxuan turned around, and Shen Wanqing wanted to speak but bit her lip shut instead.
She couldn’t say more, or the children would start to suspect again.
She felt that even if she went back this time, she would surely catch the plague.
After the three children left, Pei Yu noticed that Shen Wanqing visibly relaxed, and a smirk appeared on his lips.
"Push me around for a walk, will you?"
Shen Wanqing looked speechless, "Are you sure? It’s so cold, and with your current health, shouldn’t you avoid the wind as much as possible?"
But Pei Yu insisted, and Shen Wanqing had no choice.
So she could only push him along on a walk.
At this time, a maid came over with medicine, looking at Shen Wanqing.
"Madam, please have the medicine."
Shen Wanqing took it. Here at Pei Yu’s place, she was like fish on a chopping board. Even if it were poison or arsenic, Shen Wanqing would have to drink it.
After Shen Wanqing finished the medicine, she asked Pei Yu.
"Where do you want to go?"
"What about you?"
Shen Wanqing laughed sarcastically, "I want to leave the Pei Mansion."
Pei Yu nodded, "Then push me to your courtyard."
Shen Wanqing: "..."
She pushed him to the courtyard, and Pei Yu looked at a tree with a nostalgic gaze.
"Do you remember, this tree was planted by you for me? You said that the number of rings on the tree represents how many years you’ve loved me."
Shen Wanqing said, "How many years of foolishness, you mean?" 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂
She dared not say the following words out loud, fearing they would anger Pei Yu to death.
Seeing this tree made her want to cut it down, as it stood witness to how foolish she was back then.
As Pei Yu walked, he suddenly leaned back onto the chair, looking like he might faint again.
He looked like he was about to die.
Shen Wanqing placed her fingers under Pei Yu’s nose to check his condition.
She could only feel a faint breath.
With a blank expression, Shen Wanqing pushed Pei Yu back to his room.
The doctor had been waiting in the room for a long time.
Seeing Pei Yu return, he quickly gave him some medicine, but Pei Yu couldn’t swallow it.
The doctor shook his head, "Beyond salvation, at most half an hour."
...
Meanwhile, Pei Lingxuan hadn’t gone to the Prince Zhan Mansion but had found the residence where Shu’er was.
Seeing Shu’er busy, he couldn’t help but wipe his tears in worry.
"Sister, is there really no way to save father?"
Shu’er was just about to say there was no way unless they used the Spiritual Spring Water.
But it wouldn’t do much; he would still die in a few days.
Then they heard Tang Zan say, "Shu’er, come over and look at this."
Shu’er came over and saw the reaction of the virus.
When using the 58th configuration of the herbal remedy, the virus’s reproduction slowed down, and eventually, the drug’s detoxifying effects matched the virus, even slightly overcoming it.
Shu’er’s eyes lit up, quickly took the No. 58 medication, and said to Pei Lingxuan, "Let’s go to the Pei Mansion."
Pei Lingxuan wiped his tears, showing joy in his eyes.
Even if Pei Yu wasn’t a good father, having a father always made a difference.
Upon arriving at the Pei Mansion, they saw people were already crying.
Shu’er was curious whether someone had already died or if they were rehearsing in advance.
When Pei Lingling saw Shu’er, she angrily walked toward her.
"Why are you here, Shu’er? Shouldn’t you be hiding at the Prince Zhan Mansion, or do you still care whether father lives or dies?"
Shu’er rolled her eyes and said to Xuan Liu, "Keep this mad dog under control, why is she biting people when she comes up?"
Pei Lingling’s face turned ugly as she chased after Shu’er, barking madly.
Finally, Xuan Liu tapped her mute point, and she quieted down.
Shu’er finally reached Pei Yu’s room.
She saw her mother standing in the corner like an invisible person, while the other concubines wept uncontrollably in Pei Yu’s arms.
Shu’er was stunned, "Is he dead?"
Shen Wanqing shook her head, "Still has a breath left."
Shu’er nodded without much emotion and walked up to Pei Yu.
Just as she was about to feed Pei Yu the medicine, Xiang Hui raised her hand to push her away.
As if she was trying to knock Shu’er over.
Shu’er dodged to the side, and Xiang Hui toppled to the ground.
Then she began to wail while speaking.
"Look at this mother and daughter, the master is still here, and they treat me like this. How will we live in the future?"
Shu’er rolled her eyes and couldn’t be bothered to deal with her.
But seeing Xiang Hui’s particularly annoying demeanor, she couldn’t help but remark.
"Enough, everyone sees the truth, stop inverting black and white."
Xiang Hui was furious, instinctively glancing at the others’ strange expressions, and felt she was losing her position, quickly stood up, and dusted off her clothes.
"Really, no respect for elders."
Shu’er’s eyes swept over her eerily, and Xiang Hui’s words got stuck in her throat.
She realized this legitimate daughter, whom she had never taken seriously, had such a terrifying look in her eyes.
Then she walked toward Pei Yu.
Arriving at Pei Yu’s side, Shu’er placed her fingers under Pei Yu’s nose.
His breaths were faint; he wouldn’t last a few more minutes.
As she attempted to give him the medicine, Xiang Hui let out a scream, finally breaking free from Shu’er’s pressure.
"You’re not satisfied with your father’s suffering and intend to poison him to death?"
Then several concubines immediately began to pull at Shu’er.
The medicine was in a porcelain bottle, and Shu’er worried it would shatter. At this moment, Shen Wanqing spoke up.
"Come here."
Soon, people entered, and Shen Wanqing pointed at those women pulling Shu’er away.
"Separate these concubines. My daughter was able to develop preventive medicine, so she surely developed an effective treatment now."
"Your actions are just to prevent the master from taking the medicine and hoping he dies soon so you can divide the inheritance."
This statement made everyone’s faces change instantly.
They miscalculated; now, with Shu’er backing her, Shen Wanqing’s demeanor was completely different.
Moreover, such thoughts were deeply hidden.
Only occasionally did they wish for Pei Yu’s death.
But their deeper desire was for Pei Yu to be well.
That way, they still had protection and wouldn’t have to end their days alone in the backyard.
Shu’er said, "Did you hear that? Concubines, aren’t you letting go yet?"
