Madam Li's Identity Is Exposed Again!

Chapter 1748: Chapter 1738: Chi Enen Wakes Up

It was hard to tell how much time had passed before it finally ended.

Oslo saw her eyes devoid of emotion and, for some reason, suddenly didn’t want to look anymore. He wrapped his long arms around her, burying her face in his chest. Unilaterally, he decided, ”The wedding will be held in a month; I’ll notify everyone to attend then. If my mother comes looking for you again, just ignore her!”

Upon hearing his words, Li Qiyun’s open eyes suddenly closed in pain—

Because of the time difference, it was already late at night in Country W, while it was just noon on the Ryukyu Islands.

Chi Enen had drifted in and out of a feverish stupor for one day and one night before she finally woke up.

Her first reaction upon waking was a dull ache.

Every muscle in her body felt as stiff as stone, unable to move. She lay on the bed for a while, finally mustering the strength to prop herself up on the mattress and sit up.

The air carried a distinct scent, so strong it was impossible to ignore.

Chi Enen held her head, feeling dizzy and unwell.

Just then.

The room door opened.

The maid came in with a tray of water, delighted to see her awake, and quickly hurried to the bedside, ”Miss Chi, you’re finally awake. That’s great!”

”Have I slept for long?” She glanced at the clock; it hadn’t been long, it was only noon.

Li Beijue had argued with her and then left home just after nine o’clock in the morning. It was now half-past twelve. She had only slept for three hours, so why was the maid so excited?

Of course, the maid was excited because she had slept for an entire day and night, scaring everyone to death, ”Miss Chi, you’ve slept for a whole day.”

”Is today the second day?” Chi Enen was a bit surprised and rubbed her head; no wonder her head hurt so much after sleeping for so long.

”Yes. Yesterday morning, Miss Chi suddenly fell into a high fever and didn’t wake up until now. You just slept for one day and one night.”

Fever?

She had a fever?

Chi Enen vaguely remembered bits of her dreams, where she seemed to be in great discomfort. At first, she was being roasted in a fireplace, then tightly wrapped by a giant python, hot and suffocating, and the python occasionally bit her... Thankfully, it got better later, less hot, and the python disappeared.

She frowned and sniffed the strange smell on the back of her hand, unable to resist asking the maid, ”Um... why do I smell like alcohol?”

The room, too, was filled with the scent of liquor, hard not to notice.

The maid’s expression froze, her eyes darting, clearly guilty. Unfortunately, Chi Enen, having just woken up, didn’t notice the change in her demeanor. By the time she noticed, the maid had already composed herself, lying somewhat nervously, ”I used white liquor to wipe Miss Chi’s body. It’s a home remedy from my hometown; my mother used it on me when I had a fever as a child. When Miss Chi’s fever wouldn’t come down, I tried it in desperation. I’m sorry, Miss Chi, for doing so without your permission...”

Chi Enen had heard of using white liquor to lower a fever. She couldn’t imagine Li Beijue coming back after leaving her, so she believed the maid’s words. She waved it off and said, ”It’s fine; I’m fine now, aren’t I? I should be thanking you instead.”

The maid, having done nothing and lied, felt very uneasy and dared not look her in the eyes. Just as she was about to change the subject and tell her what happened while she had a fever and slept.

Suddenly, the bedroom door opened.

A big figure and a little one rushed in.

The little one, resembling a little glutinous rice ball, kicked off its shoes and climbed onto Chi Enen’s bed like a little panda, throwing itself into Chi Enen’s arms.

”Kitty.”
