Quick Wear: I am a good female supporting role

After Liu Xiaomo left, Xiao Lingruo covered her lips and coughed twice softly. This body was too weak. After standing in a slightly cold place in the middle of the night for a while, she couldn't bear it anymore.

Seeing her cough, Ji Junhao immediately became anxious and called the guards next to him to ask the doctor in the mansion, "Ruo'er."

His eyes were filled with worry for Xiao Lingruo. Ji Junhao picked up Xiao Lingruo. She was so light that it seemed as if a gust of wind could blow the woman in his arms away.

"Your Highness, there is no need to do this. These are just old illnesses. There is no need to go to so much trouble in the middle of the night." Xiao Lingruo covered his chest with his hands, and his voice became a little weaker.

"How can this be considered an old illness?" Ji Junhao was very flustered and quickly took her back to the room.

The doctor has arrived. After taking Xiao Lingruo's pulse, he prescribed some nourishing medicine and asked someone to prepare it and let her take it.

The maidservant standing by felt very distressed watching the young lady. She took medicine every day, hoping to recover soon.

"Your Highness, it's getting late, and the young lady still needs to rest..." The maid came forward, meaning that the prince could leave now, as it would not be a good idea for the young lady to stay in her room so late at night.

"Yeah." Ji Junhao covered Xiao Lingruo with a quilt, then left the room. He did not return to the bedroom, but sat on the small stone table with chess pieces in front of the door, playing chess alone.

He was so worried about Xiao Lingruo that he had no intention of sleeping.

The black and white chess pieces were intertwined, but the hand holding the chess pieces was hesitant to move.

Liu Xiaomo had just said that she wanted to go back to sleep, but the palace was too big and she got lost again. When she met a guard passing by in a hurry, she stopped one and asked, "What happened?"

"Miss Xiao is not feeling well, and the prince asked us to call a doctor. Miss Liu, why are you still wandering around so late?" The guard was a little surprised.

"Well, I just came out for a walk." She originally wanted the guards to lead the way and send her back, but when she heard that Xiao Lingruo was not feeling well and was calling for a doctor, she couldn't help but mutter in her heart, could it be that Xiao Lingruo was pretending to be sick just to make the prince worry.

Her mind is really deep. Such ancient ladies are just pretentious. Unlike her, she comes from the modern era, accepts new ideas of the 21st century, and is open and unpretentious.

Hearing that the prince was at Xiao Lingruo's place, Liu Xiaomo began to feel worried. The guards had already hurried away, and now she was the only one left.

Forget it, let's just take a walk. After all, we are in the palace and there is no danger.

Thinking this in her mind, Liu Xiaomo started walking. After walking for a while, she suddenly saw a familiar figure.

Hey, isn't that the prince? Why is he playing chess alone?

Liu Xiaomo coughed lightly, took what she thought was a bold step, and said generously, "If you don't come after midnight, I'll just play chess and watch the lights fall."

Hearing Liu Xiaomo's voice, Ji Junhao looked up, as if he was a little confused as to why she hadn't gone back to rest yet.

"I'm lost. But this courtyard in the middle of the night is also very elegant." She strode forward and sat opposite Ji Junhao.

"Miss Liu really wrote a good poem. The leisurely knocking of chess pieces and the falling lamp flowers are absolutely wonderful." The latter sentence of the poem is exactly the same as his mood at the moment.

This Liu Xiaomo is really a wonderful person, but it's a pity that she is used as a longevity medicine for Ruo'er. Ji Junhao's eyes darkened, and after thinking about this, his attitude towards Liu Xiaomo became much better.

"I will send someone to take Miss Liu back to rest."

"No, no." Liu Xiaomo waved her hand. "I'll play chess with the prince." She learned it in high school. With modern chess, she should be able to crush these ancient people.

It’s a pity that Liu Xiaomo forgot that in today’s highly developed science and technology, the wisdom of the ancients should not be underestimated. In modern life, there are many secrets of making exquisite tools in ancient times that experts cannot crack, and there are also many ingenious endgames that cannot be solved.

"Miss Liu can actually play chess?" Ji Junhao smiled playfully with his thin lips.

When the game started, Ji Junhao thought the two sides would be evenly matched, but Liu Xiaomo's moves were full of flaws, and he defeated her in every game.

"Uh..." Liu Xiaomo was a little embarrassed. She thought that as a modern person, her chess skills should be better than that of this ancient person, but who knew that she would be defeated unilaterally.

Ji Junhao noticed her embarrassment and said with some amusement, "Although Miss Liu's chess skills are mediocre, she is an expert in poetry. I suddenly remembered that Miss Liu is going to the Chunfeng Tower for a poetry banquet tomorrow, so she should go back and rest early."

Liu Xiaomo then remembered that she was invited by the owner of Chunfenglou to help make Chunfenglou famous tomorrow and become a restaurant that talented people love to go to.

But she didn't want to leave like this, "Let's play a few more games." She really couldn't believe that she would lose so badly.

As she was playing chess, Liu Xiaomo became increasingly sleepy. The chess piece slipped from her hand, and with a click, it rolled on the ground for several times before finally coming to a stop, and the person holding the chess piece fell asleep.

Ji Junhao smiled helplessly. Liu Xiaomo was really something. Even though she was so sleepy that she was about to fall asleep, she still accompanied him to play chess for such a long time late at night.

He turned his head and looked at the gate of Xiao Lingruo's courtyard. Ruo'er should be asleep through the door, right? Although he hoped that the person who would play chess with him was Xiao Lingruo, Ji Junhao also knew that Lingruo's body would not be able to accompany him to stay up late to play chess like Liu Xiaomo.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh. He still had to wait for a while before he could take blood and make medicine to nourish Ruo'er.

Ji Junhao waved his hand, and a secret guard came out from the dark, "Your Majesty."

"Go to Miss Liu's courtyard, call your maidservant, and send her back to rest. Remember, don't wake Miss Liu up."

After Liu Xiaomo left, Ji Junhao no longer had the heart to play chess. He sat there, supporting his face with one hand, and tapping the chess piece on the jade table from time to time.

Its daybreak.

Xiao Lingruo woke up. She had a light sleep last night, but it was still a good sleep.

Early in the morning, before the maid came in to serve her, Xiao Lingruo closed her eyes and wanted to absorb spiritual energy. However, her dantian was like a leaky hole. Every time she absorbed a little, it would quickly flow away.

She did not give up. Her face was slightly flushed from absorbing too much spiritual energy. She let the absorbed spiritual energy slide through every part of her dantian, and finally found a place that could accept the spiritual energy and make the spiritual power flow more slowly.

After breathing in and out, the heavy feeling in the body was relieved a little. It seems that it is really useful, but the spiritual energy in the Dantian will still slowly dissipate. However, it is much better than the initial situation where it was absorbed in and out immediately.

At this time, the maid also came in, "Miss, it's still early, do you want to rest for a while?"

"No need, just help me change my clothes." Xiao Lingruo said.

The maid said as she changed clothes, "Miss, the prince stayed outside the courtyard all night last night and hasn't left yet."

Xiao Lingruo walked out of the yard and saw the black piece lying on the ground and the woman's hair on the white jade chessboard.

Ji Junhao stood tall beside the stone table, "Ruo'er, you're awake. Are you feeling better?"
