Chapter 951: Chapter 952 I Know What Happened

Meng Zhuqing was anxious to go for a doctor, but just as he turned around, he remembered that Gong Juechen had once given him a Sobriety Pill which he was carrying on his person.

He decided to let her take it first, to sober her up and see exactly where she felt unwell.

With that thought, Meng Zhuqing turned back, took out the Sobriety Pill, and had Tobanya swallow it.

Tobanya simply swallowed reflexively.

The effect of the Sobriety Pill took hold quickly, and soon Tobanya’s senses cleared, and she could see the figures in front of her without the haze.

But the moment she recognized the person standing by the bed, her face of discomfort instantly turned ice-cold.

"Why are you here?" she asked, her tone quite chilly.

Meng Zhuqing had already put on his mask again while quietly tidying up things around, and he wasn’t sure how to answer Tobanya’s question at that moment.

So instead of responding, he asked, "Commandery Princess, where do you feel unwell? This General will go fetch a doctor for you."

Struggling, Tobanya sat up and leaned against the bedhead. She glanced outside through the open door, noting the darkness and silence, deducing that it must be deep into the night.

Her head throbbed, her stomach was burning like fire, and she tried her best not to show it.

Her gaze returned to the person standing by the bed.

Originally, she did not want to be truthful to Meng Zhuqing, but seeing his concerned expression, she admitted honestly, "My stomach hurts."

"Then this General will immediately go and summon a doctor to look after the Commandery Princess," Meng Zhuqing said and was about to turn to fetch the doctor.

But Tobanya stopped him.

She said in a faint voice, "No need, the Commandery Princess knows what’s wrong."

"What’s the matter?" Meng Zhuqing immediately turned back, looking at her with hopeful eyes for an explanation.

Tobanya fell silent.

After a while, she came clean once more, "I haven’t eaten all day, drank too much liquor, and that’s that."

Hearing that Tobanya hadn’t eaten all day, Meng Zhuqing felt extremely concerned, but he didn’t let it show on his face.

"Then this General will cook some porridge for the Commandery Princess," he said, turning to leave.

This time, Tobanya did not call out to him.

And as Meng Zhuqing’s figure disappeared from her line of sight, Tobanya looked down with mixed emotions for a while before she raised her hand and rubbed her aching temples.

But just as she rubbed her temples, her stomach burned even more fiercely, causing her to curl up her body immediately, clutching her abdomen tightly, trying to alleviate the discomfort, which was nevertheless unbearable.

She had never been drunk before; this was her first time.

Her stomach felt so uncomfortable, and with the effect of the Sobriety Pill still at work, Tobanya’s mind grew clearer.

With a more lucid mind, Tobanya carefully recalled what had happened while she was drinking in the pavilion. Other than persistently drinking as the night deepened, she could not remember anything else.

How did Meng Zhuqing end up here?

Recalling how Meng Zhuqing had not responded to her question earlier, she couldn’t be bothered to dwell on this issue any further.

However...

Feeling a pain in her hand, Tobanya lifted her right hand to look and discovered that it was injured, which made her feel slightly startled before she concluded that she must have injured herself.

She didn’t believe for a moment that the injury on her hand could have been caused by him.

She clearly remembered what kind of person he was.

When Meng Zhuqing returned with the porridge, Tobanya struggled to sit up from the bed, got down, and walked to the table to sit down.
