Chapter 1379: Chapter 15 Su Pan’er’s Decision (15)

"Doctor said you held your breath underwater for too long, you need to take good care of yourself."

Qin Yi’s voice was somewhat choked, yet he still managed a smile, "And your leg needs good care too. Don’t worry, everything will be alright!"

These words were meant to comfort her, but in reality, when the doctor saw Su Pan’er’s mangled leg, he had suggested amputating it! However, Qin Yi, trusting in Su Pan’er’s medical skills, overruled the opinions of others and insisted on saving the injured leg.

"Don’t just say nice things."

Su Pan’er struggled to move her fingers, looking at the father and daughter before her, "How badly am I injured? Why can’t I move at all? If you don’t tell me the truth, I won’t be able to judge my condition..."

Little Yanyan looked at her father, biting her lips in silence.

Qin Yi pondered for a moment, but still told the truth.

"The doctor said your brain is damaged, but as long as you awaken, it will be okay. And your leg... he said it’s fractured."

Su Pan’er understood!

She must be experiencing cortical brain damage due to lack of oxygen, plus a comminuted fracture in one leg, and as for the external injuries... she remembers clearly, that leg was already bloody and bruised before she lost consciousness!

"So that’s what happened!"

Su Pan’er closed her eyes, teasing him, "Then, if I am left with scars in the future, will you still treat me well?"

"Empress Mother..."

Little Yanyan looked at her worriedly.

But Su Pan’er was still obstinately waiting for Qin Yi to give her an answer.

"Fool!"

Qin Yi reached out and ruffled her hair, "I thought I had already given you my answer in the cave!"

In sickness and in health, in life and in death!

It’s better to show than to tell!

And he had not only spoken but had also acted!

"I know, I remember everything. But still, I want to hear you say it again..."

Despite being very tired, Su Pan’er stubbornly wanted to hear Qin Yi say it himself.

Qin Yi picked up the decoction that had already gone cold beside him, scooped up a spoonful, and brought it to her lips, "Drink the medicine first, then I’ll tell you!"

Little Yanyan silently stood up to make space, having grown much more sensible now.

Seeing her father and mother’s close affection, she too was genuinely happy. She slipped out of the room unnoticed, leaving the space for her parents. Little Yanyan then headed to her Aunt Wu, Su Xian’er’s, place of recovery.

Su Pan’er was in poor spirits after drinking the medicine; like a little girl, she stubbornly and repeatedly listened to Qin Yi whisper "I love you" three times into her ear before she grasped his hand and fell asleep with peace of mind.

Watching Su Pan’er slip back into deep sleep, Qin Yi suddenly felt an intense sense of happiness welling up inside him.

What land and kingdom, what power and glory, they all seemed insignificant to him at this moment! He had his wife, his son, and three well-behaved daughters; his life was already complete!

Su Pan’er, in and out of consciousness, thought she heard Qin Yi talking to someone, but it took her great effort to try and concentrate, finally waking from her slumber.

Only then did she realize it was Prince Wei who was speaking with Qin Yi!

As for this Prince Wei, Su Pan’er’s memory still lingered on the fact that he had also entered that riverside house.

She had no idea what Qin Yi and he had been discussing.

The conversation outside seemed to come to a pause, the sound of footsteps growing nearer; indeed, Qin Yi’s face appeared in her line of sight.

"You’re awake? Good timing, I’ve already ordered them to simmer the medicine. Hurry up and drink it before it gets cold."

Speaking, he helped Su Pan’er sit up to sip the medicine.

"Was it Prince Wei who came by just now?"

"Mm, it was him."

"When I went to rescue Su Ke, Prince Wei also entered that house but failed to save Ke’er."

Su Pan’er spoke with an even tone, not elaborating further.

"I know, the elite guards have told me everything. Moreover, Prince Wei particularly mentioned this matter just now."

"What did he say?"

"He said..."

Qin Yi finished feeding the last spoonful of decoction before pausing, "He said that he only rescued Shuang’er because she is a woman, and it was very dangerous for her to stay any longer. At that time, the men he brought with him were not sufficient. If he had tried to take both people, he reckoned the other side might turn hostile! That’s why he ultimately decided to take Shuang’er away."

These words were spoken by Qin Yi with exceptional calmness.

"Ha! Excuses... Do you believe him?"

Su Pan’er looked at him disdainfully then settled back onto her pillow.

"I wasn’t there at the time. Not to mention not seeing with my own eyes, even what one sees with one’s own eyes might not be the truth. This is the reasoning you’ve taught me!"

Qin Yi had just finished feeding the last spoonful of decoction and now helped her lie flat, "Wait for a while, later I’ll have the kitchen send some light food over. With an injury like yours, you must recuperate well to possibly make a full recovery."

Su Pan’er grabbed his withdrawing hand, "Regardless of what Prince Wei said to you, or what he has said, I don’t believe him! By the way, how is Shuang’er? Is she doing well?"

Qin Yi was noncommittal.

Regarding his imperial brother, who resembled him by eight to nine points, even he couldn’t quite figure out what to make of him.

However, the imperial brother was capable, bold, good at management, and had even managed his fiefdom in perfect order, a rare talent for governing a country.

"He only discussed some matters with me."

Qin Yi thought for a moment then added, "He also has his sights set on the overseas Silk Road and the lucrative opportunity left by the Ning Family. I have already agreed with him that for this upcoming sea voyage, he will dispatch someone to set sail. As for the other matters... I understand them all!"

Su Pan’er nodded silently, feeling relieved upon hearing his words.

"You don’t need to worry about these matters. I’m here, and I won’t disappoint you. Right now, just focus on healing. I will always be by your side, always!"

"Always?"

"Always!"

"Good! We will always, always be together."

The sick Su Pan’er became much softer, clutching his hand with gratitude shining in her eyes.

Fortunately, Su Pan’er’s spirit had been improving day by day. Her leg had suffered a comminuted fracture, and the Doctor they had found was the best they could get. Besides Eleventh Uncle, two more people were assisting Su Pan’er with her leg’s medical treatment.

After assessing the extent of her bone fractures, Su Pan’er decided to rest for a few days before starting to treat herself.

For these few days, she indulged in good food and drank various decoctions like they cost nothing, in an effort to gather strength for the repositioning surgery on her leg bone.

Meanwhile, on Su Xian’er’s side, Lui Muyi had been long delayed in arriving.

Accompanying Lui Muyi, unexpectedly, was someone no one had anticipated—Xue Qian!

After separating from Su Ke on Deicide Mountain, Xue Qian and a group of soldiers wandered aimlessly across the mountain. Like Su Ke’s situation, they too escaped from the maze, but upon descending from the continuous mountain range, they discovered they had reached the other side of Deicide Mountain—near Yongzhou City, having crossed over the entire mountain top!
