The Disabled Tyrant’s Pet Palm Fish [Transmigration] - Chap 56
Chap 56
Although Li Yu had a fever, he didn’t fall asleep again. Instead, he just had no strength at all.
Jing-wang carried him all the way to find the imperial physician, not even patient enough to
remain in the room to wait for the physician to come over. Li Yu felt touched but at the same
time, shocked. So a man like him can also be carried around all over like this.
QQ. Wasn’t this the so-called princess carry that he scoffed at while reading the novel?
But he already got on the “pirate ship.” Lacking strength all over, it’s no longer up to him.
Wang-gonggong and all of those imperial guards stared at them with burning gazes. Li Yu’s
muddled, sluggish mind made an attempt to think of what to do, but he couldn’t think up
anything. In the end, he simply turned his face inward.
He wasn’t used to this, but he also couldn’t resist. This kind of carry placed all of his weight on
the person who was holding him. Li Yu let out a long exhale. At the same time, he also let go of
lots and lots of his internal anger. He let himself lean against this person until he was no longer
nervous.
Maybe it was because he found someone to rely on, while his feverish state still caused him
discomfort, he no longer felt it was unbearable.
A second ago, he was actually a bit scared that he might be on his deathbed. Now he could even
split his attention to observe the bystanders’ reactions. Li Yu felt like his illness would definitely
get better.
Jing Estate.
Imperial Physician Xu didn’t leave yet when an anxious looking Jing-wang suddenly came
searching for him while carrying a young man in his arms. Imperial physician Xu was incapable
of treating the fish before and felt rather guilty towards Jing-wang all this time. Now that the
patient was someone he could treat, Physician Xu quickly helped Jing-wang put the patient
down. He pulled out the medicine box that he carried with him and checked the pulse of the
sickly youth.
After making his assessment, imperial physician Xu looked at the youth’s pale white face. He
thought internally, if he could look at the youth’s throat, he’d be even more certain of his
diagnosis. However, this youth had fainted and it wasn’t too convenient. Imperial Physician Xu
was just about to ask Jing-wang to help pry open the youth’s mouth when the youth, who was
just sleeping deeply, suddenly opened his dark round eyes.
“Doctor, I accidentally soaked too long in the water.” With a hoarse voice, Li Yu said quietly.
He knew the reason for his illness. Afraid that he’d really fall back asleep and interfere with the
examination, he swiftly “woke” up to inform the imperial physician.
Imperial Physician Xu, who has never seen any patient so actively voluntary before: “…….”
Imperial physician Xu couldn’t help but smile: “It is indeed a cold. Although the high fever has
yet to come down, your energy is not bad. From this, I predict that although the illness came on
abruptly and ferocious, it shouldn’t be life-threatening. However, you will still need thoughtful
care.”
Imperial Physician Xu already had an idea in mind. He quickly wrote down a prescription. Jing-
wang ordered Wang Xi to go boil the medication. The servants already re-tidied up the room
before. Jing-wang brought Li Yu back, once again obstinately carrying Li Yu the entire way.
After being carried all this time, all of Li Yu’s ill temper had completely worn down by now.
Jing-wang placed Li Yu on the bed. Originally he wanted to help Li Yu switch clothes. Li Yu
opened his eyes wide and desperately shook his head. Very quickly, his head started to spin.
Jing-wang had no choice and didn’t want him to continue feeling uncomfortable. Therefore, he
stopped insisting on changing clothes. Imperial Physician Xu instructed him that Li Yu shouldn’t
get a chill the next few days. Jing-wang turned around and found a green water plant blanket that
had gold edges on it and wrapped Li Yu tightly in it.
Li Yu was wrapped like a spring roll. He still mumbled to himself internally, how did Jing-wang
know he liked green blankets.
However, his head was all fuzzy and burned to a crisp from the fever, even if he felt it was
suspicious, he still couldn’t think of the reason at the moment.
Wang Xi carried the prepared medicine and jogged into the room. Not waiting for him to place
the medicine bowl down, Jing-wang extended his long arms and took it over.
Wang Xi’s eyelid jumped. He stepped forward and handed over a silver spoon. Jing-wang gave
Wang Xi a glance. Wang-gonggong immediately understood and said tacitly: “Your highness,
this old servant will stand guard outside. I will leave Li-gongzi’s care to you.”
Jing-wang nodded his head. Wang Xi sent himself away to guard the door outside. Li Yu felt a
bit dizzy from shaking his head just now. Unknowingly, he fell into a light sleep briefly.
Suddenly he felt something touching his face.
Struggling to wake up, Li Yu saw the big and tall young man standing at the head of bed. Jing-
wang was holding a tiny jade bowl in his hand, eyes full of bewilderment and looking very
helpless holding the bowl of medicine, completely lacking the overbearing aura that he had
before when snatching it from Wang-gonggong.
Li Yu even somewhat wanted to laugh, but he suppressed it: “Your highness, is it time to drink
medicine?”
Who knows how long he can still maintain human form.
Jing-wang stiffly nodded his head. Li Yu raised his arms and was about to sit up himself.
Pausing briefly but sensing Li Yu’s intentions, Jing-wang scrambled to support him before Li Yu
used his own strength. Sighing internally, Li Yu didn’t waste energy arguing with Jing-wang and
allowed the other to help him.
There was a soft cushion on the bed. Jing-wang moved it over and gently stuffed it behind Li Yu.
Li Yu leaned on the soft cushion and said quietly: “Thank you, your highness…… you can give
the medicine bowl to me. I can do it myself.”
Li Yu reached out and wanted to take the medicine bowl.
Jing-wang understood what Li Yu meant, but how can the sick drink medicine on their own?
Jing-wang also got sick when he was younger. In his memories, it was always Wang Xi holding
a spoon and feeding him the medicine scoop by scoop. Jing-wang was very clear that at this
time, he should be feeding Xiao Yu. However, Xiao Yu seemed to be resisting him. If he handed
the bowl directly over……
This medicine was freshly made and was still hot. It definitely wouldn’t be convenient for the
sickly Xiao Yu.
Jing-wang shook his head and firmly rejected Li Yu’s request. He used the silver spoon and
scooped up a spoonful of the medicine, lightly blowing away some of the hot air.
He was afraid Li Yu was still angry so he didn’t directly sit down by the side of the bed. Instead,
after he finished blowing and cooling down the scoop of medicine, he delivered it to Li Yu’s
mouth while bending his back.
Li Yu: “…….”
After seeing this person refuse to let him down no matter what just now on their way back, Li Yu
already knew how obstinate this person was. If he didn’t drink it, this person might stand with
his back bent like this nonstop.
He might as well drink it.
Lowering his eyes, Li Yu licked the medicinal soup. The bitterness instantly made his entire face
scrunch up.
Seeing this, Jing-wang put down the bowl and pulled out a peach blossom cookie from the jade
box. Breaking it into pieces and placing it in his palm, he held it out in front of Li Yu.
Jing-wang nodded his chin at Li Yu.
Li Yu: “……”
This was probably saying, drink the medicine and then eat something sweet.
But wasn’t this his special trick for taking care of people!? How did the big scoundrel learn all of
this!
Li Yu gave Jing-wang a glare, refusing to eat it. However, the medicinal soup was really too
bitter. After drinking only a few sips, Li Yu yielded and grudgingly grabbed a few pieces of
peach blossom cookies, stuffing them into his mouth.
Other than feeding him medicine by the spoonful and reminding him to eat the cookie, Jing-
wang didn’t express anything else.
Li Yu finally finished drinking the bitter medicine. Jing-wang took out a clean plain
handkerchief. Before he came close, Li Yu vigilantly grabbed it and wiped off his mouth
himself. Jing-wang remained silent and then handed over a piece of paper.
Li Yu was very worried about what to do if he saw the word “like.” He was very mentally
exhausted right now.
Jing-wang really did treat him very well– seeing how Jing-wang carried him all over in search of
the doctor, it’s not that Li Yu didn’t feel touched inside.
When he suddenly fell sick, Jing-wang didn’t mind Li Yu’s previously nasty attitude and still
saved him. Li Yu remained cold and indifferent towards Jing-wang, but Jing-wang pampered
him in every way possible, not affected at all by Li Yu’s ill temper.
Li Yu was even somewhat curious. How far this person would go for him……
After learning that Jing-wang liked him, other than shock, Li Yu only felt panic, as well as fury
towards the system. These intense emotions made him momentarily lose himself.
He already threw a tantrum for a long time, too long. Taking his anger out on others, being
argumentative and difficult. He even caused himself to fall seriously ill. As he laid weakly on the
bed, and had no choice but to calm down and think carefully, he finally discovered that his
previous self was really too excessive.
Because Li Yu was doing missions, Jing-wang started liking him because of an accidental
combination of factors. Can Jing-wang be blamed for this?
Of course not. If one really had to argue, Jing-wang was also affected by the System and
therefore innocent in this matter.
Li Yu resisted relentlessly, relentlessly, always saying verbally that he hated this scoundrel. But
if he had to search deep in his heart, just how much did he really hate Jing-wang?
When Jing-wang used Chu YanYu to force an encounter with him, was he really angry that Jing-
wang used an underhanded method?
No. If he thought about it a bit more clearly, he would have known easily. People in court
intrigue often used all sorts of schemes. This was the type of person that Jing-wang was. Li Yu
was more angry that his heartfelt concern fell flat, not that Jing-wang tricked him.
Plus, if they had to talk about the biggest liar, wasn’t it really himself?
His identity was fake. Fish was fake. Everything was fake. Did he not trick Jing-wang just as
much? Normally, his mouth was often full of lies, no matter if it’s for the mission or some other
purpose. In the end, he told many, many lies. How could he vehemently criticize other people for
things that he couldn’t even do himself, just to vent his dissatisfaction?
In the end, he did receive too many shocks at once and didn’t manage to control his injured
emotions. He heard that in the aftermath, people often regret things they’ve done during states of
unrest. Li Yu felt like he should take some time to calm down before re-examining what he
should do and what he should do with Jing-wang.
Li Yu still hasn’t opened the piece of paper yet. Jing-wang already saw through him. Patting Li
Yu on the back of his hand, Jing-wang expressed his encouragement.
Li Yu discovered that, putting aside all the other various emotions, Jing-wang always managed
to help him relax very quickly.
Li Yu no longer hesitated in opening the piece of paper. He read these words written on it:
“Don’t worry. Just get better.”
Li Yu: “……”
Instantly feeling his eyes burn again, Li Yu inconspicuously nodded.
Jing-wang rubbed him on the head, helped him lay down, and covered him snugly with the
blankets.
“Your highness, can you…… let me stay by myself for a while.” Li Yu begged.
Jing-wang expected as much. The search for medical treatment and feeding medication just now
seemed completed like running around on a time limit. He knew that the two hour limit should
arrive soon. Xiao Yu was most likely about to change back.
In terms of Xiao Yu’s identity, he already thought it through clearly. If Xiao Yu didn’t want him
to know, he would just pretend he didn’t know anything.
This time, Jing-wang approved of Li Yu’s request. He picked up the medicinal bowl and made to
leave the room. On the bed, Li Yu bit his lips briefly.
He asked Jing-wang to leave because there was no choice since the time limit was almost up.
However, if he just sent Jing-wang away like this, would Jing-wang still think that he was still
angry?
Actually, he wasn’t anymore.
As he threw the tantrum nonstop, and Jing-wang still treated him with the same patience, Li Yu
gradually found that all of his fury imperceptibly dissipated somewhere along the way.
It’s better not to be angry anymore. Being angry was too painful and tiring, hurting others and
hurting himself.
This illness that he had, although what became sick was his body, what ended up getting healed
was his emotional state.
“Your highness, I…… I drank the medicine and already feel much better. Please rest assured,
your highness. Unfortunately, I still have something very important to do so I can’t stay in this
room. But tomorrow, I’ll still come by again. I won’t run away again. Therefore…… will you
come spend some time with me tomorrow too?”
Li Yu said everything in one breath. When he was finished, his face was somewhat reddened. He
he he originally wanted to say sorry. At the end there, his attitude towards Jing-wang was very
terrible. He wanted to ask Jing-wang not to mind it. But when it came out of his mouth, how did
it change to……
Wanting Jing-wang to spend some time with him?
Li Yu: QQ. Why’s my mouth not listening anymore? It must be because I’m sick!
Jing-wang was briefly stunned. As he turned his head back incredulously, Li Yu swiftly hid his
head under the blanket, pretending that he didn’t say anything at all.
Jing-wang looked at the lock of hair that stuck out from under the blanket and smiled happily.
Then, he closed the door for Li Yu.
Li Yu counted Jing-wang’s spry footsteps as the other walked away, thinking unconsciously:
unsurprisingly, he still liked interacting casually with the big scoundrel.
