Quick Transmigration Sweet Story, The White Moonlight Rescue Plan

Just as Li Xuanche finished speaking, a crisp sound rang out, and the curtain that had been hanging low was suddenly pulled open from the inside.

Gu Xiao looked closely and saw Ling Yubai dressed in a pure white brocade robe with a magnificent golden cloak over it, looking like an immortal descending to earth. He was being carefully and slowly pushed out of the house by Mo Feng beside him.

Mo Feng strode up to Li Xuanche, bowed deeply, and said respectfully, "Your Highness, my young master has unfortunately caught a slight cold today and is feeling a little unwell. Fearing he might disturb your enjoyment, he specially sent me to inform you that he has decided to take his leave." With that, Mo Feng bowed again.

Seeing this, Li Xuanche quickly smiled and waved his hand, gently covering his mouth with his folding fan, and said with a light laugh, "Haha, it's alright, it's alright. Since that's the case, let Baizhi rest and recuperate properly. It's just that I'm sorry to have troubled him to make a special trip here today."

Ling Yubai suppressed the constant itching in her throat, trying hard not to cough, and pursed her lips slightly, finally managing to squeeze out two words through her teeth: "It's alright."

However, before he could finish speaking, an uncontrollable cough surged forth like a tidal wave. He involuntarily bent over, coughing violently as if he were coughing up his lungs.

His lips were pale and colorless, and there were obvious dark circles under his eyes. He looked even thinner than when I saw him a few days ago, and his back was slightly hunched from coughing violently.

The gentle breeze and bright moon, yet confined to this tiny wheelchair by this terrible illness, made Gu Xiao's heart ache with sorrow upon seeing Ling Yubai in such a state.

Li Xuanche, who was secretly observing Gu Xiao's expression, noticed the heartache in her eyes. A hint of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes, but he then smiled brightly: "Oh dear, Bai Zhi, you must take good care of yourself! Don't push yourself too hard, you must get plenty of rest. I'm really looking forward to attending your and my cousin's wedding soon!"

Li Xuanche had long regarded himself as a thorn in his side, so how could he possibly care about his health?

Perhaps she's doubting whether she truly loves Zhong Gu Xiao, otherwise why has she been delaying getting engaged?

Ling Yubai naturally understood the deeper meaning behind Li Xuanche's words, but he did not reveal it at all. He subtly pulled his arm away from Li Xuanche's hand, turned his head, and whispered to Gu Xiao, who was standing not far behind him, "Follow me..." Before he could finish speaking, another violent coughing sound rang out, making his whole body tremble.

Upon seeing this, Li Xuanche hurriedly walked forward with a pained expression, reaching out his hands as if to help Ling Yubai catch his breath and make him feel more comfortable.

However, just as he was about to approach Ling Yubai, Mo Feng, with a stern face, blocked his way.

Mo Feng's face was ashen, his eyes coldly fixed on Li Xuanche, and he said coldly, "Your Highness has gone to great lengths, but the young master has always disliked being touched by others, please forgive him."

Despite the fact that the person standing before him was the high-ranking and awe-inspiring Li Xuanche, Mo Feng showed no fear. His expression remained cold and stern, and his tone was harsh and impolite, as if he didn't care about the other party's status at all. If it were anyone else, they would probably have been enraged and furious by Mo Feng's rude behavior.

Surprisingly, Li Xuanche was not angry at all. Instead, he smiled and made amends for his rash behavior in a friendly manner: "Oh dear, it's all my fault. I was so anxious that I forgot that Bai Zhi has such a taboo. I'm so sorry!" After saying that, he shook his head slightly, as if he regretted his impetuousness.

Hearing Li Xuanche's humble words, Mo Feng's expression softened slightly. He nodded slightly to Li Xuanche to express his gratitude for his kindness, then turned and pushed Ling Yubai, who was sitting in a wheelchair, slowly out of the house.

Gu Xiao, who had been quietly observing the situation from the sidelines, knew that it was not a good time to stay after Ling Yubai left. She quickly bowed respectfully to Li Xuanche, then lifted her skirt and hurriedly chased after Ling Yubai in the direction he had gone.

"Your Highness, this is the jade pendant we got from Miss Liu!" Just after those people hurriedly left, the guards who had been hiding on the roof finally revealed themselves. They nimbly leaped down from the roof and knelt down in unison before Li Xuanche.

At this moment, Li Xuanche was leaning against the window, his eyes slightly narrowed, leisurely looking down at the bustling crowd on the street below.

He lightly waved a folding fan in his hand, as if everything around him was irrelevant. He didn't even glance at the jade pendant handed to him by the guard behind him, completely indifferent.

It's well known that His Highness Prince Qing has always cherished this jade pendant greatly, so his current nonchalant attitude is highly unusual. The guards below secretly speculated about the reason, but dared not ask rashly. Thus, they could only look at each other, somewhat at a loss for what to do.

As soon as Mo Feng saw Gu Xiao rushing over, he immediately understood and handed over the task of pushing the wheelchair to Gu Xiao, saying, "I'll go find a ladder for the young master to get onto the carriage."

Gu Xiao was grateful and naturally wouldn't neglect her, quickly pushing Ling Yubai to the carriage in the backyard.

They waited and waited, but Mo Feng never came. Meanwhile, more and more pedestrians were coming and going on the street, and many people were curiously looking in their direction.

Ling Yubai pondered to herself, as time passed second by second, and continuing to wait seemed to be of little use.

However, considering the frail and sickly role he was currently playing, he knew he absolutely could not easily reveal his true physical condition. While he was caught in this dilemma, his gaze inadvertently swept over Gu Xiao, who stood beside him with her head bowed.

At this moment, Gu Xiao secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He had just experienced a life-or-death crisis and barely escaped with his life. Now he was thinking about how to contact Xue'er in the front yard.

Just as her thoughts were drifting, she suddenly felt a shadow looming over her. Looking closely, she saw a pair of slender, fair, jade-like hands appear before her without warning.

"Help me...cough cough...get up." Ling Yubai squeezed out a few words with all her might, but before she could finish speaking, she was hit with another heart-wrenching cough. The cough sounded as if it would shake her internal organs out of her body, making people tremble with fear.

Seeing Ling Yubai in such pain, Gu Xiao, who had initially been somewhat concerned about the traditional rule of men and women not touching each other, was instantly overwhelmed by the thought of "the sick person is the most important." At this moment, her heart and mind were filled with worry for Ling Yubai's condition.

Ling Yubai had only intended to use Gu Xiao's hand for support to pretend to be extremely weak so he could get into the car smoothly. Unexpectedly, a sudden fit of coughing completely disrupted his plans. He felt as if his body was about to collapse like a candle in the wind, and even his outstretched arm could barely support him.

In a flash, Gu Xiao swiftly grasped Ling Yubai's outstretched hand, then carefully and gently helped him sit up. [He's so sick, and you're still worrying about your pride? Are you even human?]

Just as Ling Yubai was swaying violently from coughing, he tried to pull his arm back, but it was too late; Gu Xiao had already gripped his hand tightly.

Ling Yubai was startled and tried to break free, but before he could make a move, he heard Gu Xiao say anxiously, "Don't move!" Before Ling Yubai could react, Gu Xiao lifted him up like a chicken.

Ling Yubai had just opened his mouth to say something when an unbearable itching sensation suddenly shot through his throat, causing his cough to worsen. This time, his body swayed violently from side to side like a candle in the wind, as if he were about to collapse to the ground at any moment.

Seeing that Ling Yubai's cough was getting worse, and his already pale face was now completely bloodless, making him look particularly pitiful, Gu Xiao felt a pang of anxiety. Without daring to delay, she quickly reached out to steady Ling Yubai and then carefully led him toward the carriage parked not far away.

At this moment, Ling Yubai's steps were unsteady, and he couldn't stand up at all. Before he could regain his balance, he felt like a rag doll being manipulated, and Gu Xiao dragged him onto the carriage.

This series of rude actions infuriated Ling Yubai. His face turned deathly pale, then purple, and finally even liver-colored.

He opened his mouth, wanting to give Gu Xiao a good scolding, but his throat was so itchy that he couldn't say a word. He could only pound his chest with his hands while staring blankly and sulking.

Meanwhile, Li Xuanche, standing upstairs, witnessed everything. He watched quietly as Gu Xiao, disregarding his own exhaustion, insisted on helping the sickly and frail Ling Yubai onto the carriage.

At this moment, Gu Xiao's flushed face and the large beads of sweat on her forehead were clearly visible, but even so, she did not utter a single complaint.

Envy turned into resentment, and jealousy transformed into a cold venom that corroded the last vestiges of Li Xuanche's rationality.

After a brief silence, the carriage was nowhere to be seen in Li Xuanche's sight.

Li Xuanche then accepted the jade pendant handed to him by the guard and gave his second order to the group, "You... go and lure Lin An's men back."
