Ah Lan arrived at the sunken incense house.
Sure enough, when she came over, before she even entered that room, she saw another very strong smell of blood inside, and at once, her face turned more and more gigantic and she immediately ran in.
“XVI Lang, are you all right?”
“Miss Ah Lan, you’re finally here, Sixteenth Lang he just pa*sed out.”
The maids who had been guarding the place hurriedly looked at the unconscious teenager on the bed and spoke after seeing this XVI Lang’s close attendant come over.
Ah Lan ran to the bed.
Sure enough, the boy had pa*sed out, the boy was lying unmoving on the bed at the moment, a beautiful and delicate face, which was also pale to the touch in the light next to him.
Except for the corner of his mouth, which still had a little bit of crimson that hadn’t been wiped clean.
“And he’s vomiting blood?”
Her heart churned even more.
The maids nodded, pointing to the floor they had only just wiped clean, worry all over their faces.
They were definitely worried, because of the people who had contracted the disease this night, except for this young prince who was so ill that he vomited blood, the others only had diarrhoea and belly pains that were unbearable, which had to worry them.
However, when this girl called Ah Lan heard this, she ignored them anymore and simply told them to go out.
“You guys go out first!”
“Ah? Miss Ah Lan, this ……”
The maids all looked at her in surprise at once.
However, the only response given to them was this young girl snapping back two beams of very ruthless gaze, “I told you all to get out, didn’t you hear me?”
“……”
Only then did the maids go out with trepidation.
“Why is she so fierce? It’s not even Little Princess yet.”
“No, she hasn’t even sat in that position yet, and she’s already putting on that face, she shouldn’t think that this little royal concubine is hers, right?”
“I think it’s possible, but there are so many headmen’s daughters in the tribe, can she get her turn? Don’t forget she was picked up from outside!”
“Well, let’s just wait and see what happens, isn’t XVI’s birth day coming up soon?”
“……”
The maids, under extreme discontent, began to mention the grand birth anniversary of the future heir to the tribe’s chief, which was coming soon, and upon mentioning it, all expressed great anticipation.
They were going to wait to see what was going to happen to this Ah Lan when the time came.
Unbeknownst to Ah Lan, she was in the house examining the young man lying on the bed.
However, the way she examined him was strange. Instead of checking his pulse, as she had just done when she entered the King’s Court, she simply took out the sharp knife again.
Afterwards, after picking up the teenager’s bony wrist, she slashed down at him there as well.
“Bare–”
Crimson blood, instantly bubbled out.
She saw it, her eyes narrowed, and quickly, after pulling out a green vial from her body, she poured it down on this wound of his.
But as soon as it was poured down, immediately, something began to wriggle in the teenager’s wound, and within a moment, a floppy black strip crawled out of it.
“Is it really just infected?”
She picked the thing up with the pin in her hair.
When she saw that the thing was indeed just as unmoving as if it had been sick, and that there was nothing wrong with it per se, the nerves she had been straining finally relaxed.
As long as they weren’t found.
She put the black thing into the teenager’s wound again.
Soon after she fed the teenager a tawny pill, the black worm, as if it had re-sniffed fresh, delicious blood, dug right back in.
And the teenager, lying there too, his breath slowly calmed down.

The next day.
Ruo Ruo, who had slept until the sun was up, finally got up from her bed.
My God, why had she slept so long?
She woke up and remembered that she had to go to the store today, so she jumped out of bed and rushed into the bathroom.
Ten minutes or so later, when she came downstairs fully tidied, she caught a glimpse of her little white rabbit brother tinkering with something on a table in the living room downstairs.
“Brother Bunny, what are you doing?”
“Huh?”
Bai Xiaodu, who was concentrating, then raised his head.
“Miss Ruo Ruo, you’re up?”
“Yes, I’m up, why didn’t you call me? We have to go and collect the goods today, collect and send them to those foreign businessmen, if this sample goods are okay, then we can deliver the big goods.”
Ruo Ruo ran to the kitchen and grabbed two buns that were left on the table while carrying her own bag and walked over.
Bai Xiaodu was still fiddling with some oily stuff in his hands, and as soon as he heard this, he smiled coyly.
“I’m getting an all-natural skin care product, ah, Miss Ruo Ruo, look, what have I found?” This guy, surprisingly, had a mysterious face as he brought over the thing he was pouring in his hand.
When Ruo Ruo saw it, she looked down.
It smelt good!
And, to her great astonishment, it was also shiny and pearly, like the face creams sold outside.
