Chapter 298: Chapter 297: Your Highness, Don’t Resist

Si Yuting: "She has slipped into a coma, but there is no danger to her life."

"Good," Wen You’s voice was noticeably lighter.

Si Yuting returned the light brain to Jiang Zhou, then followed Jiang Zhou for a check.

Si Yuting only performed a spiritual power test and the results came back quickly, but the outcome left Jiang Zhou in disbelief:

"How did the madam manage it? Her Mental Outburst level has actually dropped to 60%!"

Si Yuting took the data without much surprise, he had mostly guessed it since he was awake.

Seeing the serious expression on the Grand Marshal, Jiang Zhou knew to keep the matter secret, and tactfully didn’t ask further.

He was just a doctor, it was enough to do his own job well.

But he was very happy for the Grand Marshal, a 60% Mental Outburst level means that there would be no need to worry about the Grand Marshal’s mental state for the next two or three years.

Si Yuting went back to another room, glanced at Qu Tong who had not yet awakened, and after instructing Jiang Zhou to guard the room, he left.

He quickly freshened up and changed clothes, then went to meet the Empress and others who had rushed over.

Anyone who wanted to see Qu Tong was turned away by Si Yuting on the grounds that Qu Tong needed rest.

With Si Yuting’s assurances, the Empress didn’t say much, only sending back to the palace many tonics for Qu Tong.

"Your Highness, Miss Lan Er from the Alchemist Association wishes to see you," Butler Chi reported.

Si Yuting didn’t lift his head, voice indifferent: "Don’t see her."

Butler Chi stood at the doorway, hesitating: "Miss Lan Er says it’s something important she needs to discuss with you."

Si Yuting then looked towards Butler Chi.

"I asked Miss Lan Er what it was about, but she wouldn’t say, insisting on speaking to Your Highness in person," Butler Chi opened up, conflicted.

Si Yuting gave a brief glance and averted his gaze: "If it’s something important, clarify what it is, otherwise don’t bother with her."

"Yes!" Butler Chi replied robustly, pleased, and left the room.

Si Yuting checked the time on the intelligent brain, then packed up and returned to the medical room.

Qu Tong lay inside the Healing Chamber, still quiet and calm.

Jiang Zhou pulled up Qu Tong’s basic physical report and heaved a huge sigh of relief: "There’s no problem, just excessive exhaustion, too tired, she’ll recover quickly with some sleep."

"About when will she wake up?" Si Yuting looked carefully over Qu Tong’s report and asked.

"The madam didn’t rest well yesterday..." Jiang Zhou considered for a moment, then answered: "She should wake up tonight."

"Good, you can go and rest. I’ll watch over here."

Si Yuting sat beside the Healing Chamber.

The door of the Healing Chamber was open, Qu Tong’s hands were clasped over her abdomen, her face serene, silver hair spread out, beautiful like a slumbering elf.

Si Yuting gently wiped the small specks of blood on Qu Tong’s fingers with a damp cloth.

The warm and delicate touch made Si Yuting zone out.

These were the hands that held up his face.

His limbs were firmly bound by vines, the fragrant body close, the warm and heavy breathing sprayed on his face, the trembling voice almost coaxing:

"Your Highness, don’t resist me."

"I’m helping you."

"Let me in."

Defense lines breached, territory invaded, like the surging tides, softly and strongly caressing the turbulent Spirit Sea over and over, shaking his very soul with each stroke.

A subtle sensation, so subtle that it turned the scene before his eyes into nothingness, erasing the desire to kill that lay deep in his heart.

He had always known that her spiritual power was special, but he had never imagined it to be like this.

Spiritual power is violent, only acting in such a way when seeking to destroy someone else’s Spirit Sea, and that too when one’s strength far exceeds the other’s.

After a while, Si Yuting returned Qu Tong’s hand to its original place and, after checking everything, began to work beside the Healing Chamber.

*

It wasn’t until late at night that Si Yuting glanced at the Healing Chamber and then at the time in the bottom right corner of the intelligent brain.

00:00 in the early morning

Si Yuting frowned and called Jiang Zhou over.

Jiang Zhou first scanned Qu Tong’s physical condition, and the bodily functions still showed normal.

Jiang Zhou was also somewhat puzzled, "Shouldn’t the Madame have woken up by now? Your Highness, why don’t you try calling her?"

Both Si Yuting and Jiang Zhou had tried, but to no avail; even when Si Yuting pushed her with his hand, there was still no sign of her waking up. Instead, Qu Tong’s eyebrows furrowed, and her eyelashes quivered from time to time, indicating that she was not sleeping peacefully.

Jiang Zhou walked around the Healing Chamber twice, chin propped on a sign pen, looking very perplexed.

Recalling the scene he observed in the surveillance, and connecting it to Qu Tong’s subconscious glance toward the doorway the last time she entered the control room, an idea emerged.

"Maybe the Madame’s body is fine, and she’s just trapped in a nightmare. I mean, the Madame might have a psychological barrier, a fear of claustrophobic rooms without windows."

Jiang Zhou then specifically tested several data points, confirming his speculation.

"Is there any danger?" Si Yuting asked with a frown.

"Not exactly, but the Madame is probably not having a good time in her dreams. With time, she will realize and wake up, usually not more than three days," Jiang Zhou explained.

Hearing this, Si Yuting’s heart did not calm down, "Why would she have such a psychological barrier?"

"This might be related to the Madame’s personal experiences. Maybe she has encountered severe trauma associated with this kind of enclosed laboratory, which causes her strong aversion and fear toward such environments."

To substantiate his claim, Jiang Zhou even gave a specific example.

"I knew someone who was also very afraid of closed laboratories because he was held and experimented on by terrorists in a lab since his childhood."

Upon hearing this, Si Yuting’s heart also jolted.

Associating it with the tightness he had felt in Qu Tong’s body and the tremor in her voice, he had thought it was the threat of his spiritual power.

Now looking back, it was more likely due to that environment.

Si Yuting’s gaze landed on Qu Tong’s face with complexity, momentarily at a loss for words.

Despite being so scared, she still overcame her fear to come in and save him.

Wasn’t she afraid of fainting from terror and losing her life?

At that time, he was almost indistinguishable from a wild beast, devoid of any sense of reason.

"However, the Madame has lived on Capital Star since she was young, so it shouldn’t be possible for her to have such experiences. If the Madame is willing to talk about it, Grand Marshal, you can ask her after she wakes up."

"If the Madame is unwilling to talk about it, Grand Marshal, you should not provoke her to recall those memories."

"This kind of condition, though not too severe, can be managed simply by ensuring rooms have windows. If she needs to go into the control room again, just keep the door open and there won’t be any problems," said Jiang Zhou, sharing all that he knew.

"Alright, I understand," Si Yuting nodded solemnly.

Jiang Zhou went to the main treatment room, where some of the other reports for the Madame should have come out.

Si Yuting retrieved a vial of Energy Liquid from the Space Button and drank it down, ready to spend the entire night here.

Turning on the intelligent brain to continue working, his mind involuntarily began to wonder when Qu Tong might have experienced such painful moments.
