He stood guard by the bed all night, cing a cold towel on her forehead to lower her fever. Only after dawn did her temperature return to normal. Looking at the sleeping woman, he stood up, left and shut the door behind him.


    The couple got up early and prepared porridge for the sect master and the girl to eat. When they saw Jun Jueshang approaching, they immediately stopped what they were doing and went to greet him.


    "Sect Master."


    "If she awakens, tell her you brought her back and cared for her. Don''t mention my name to her." Jun Jueshang ordered the couple.


    When the couple heard this, they were surprised. But when they saw that he was still looking at them, they quickly recovered and responded to him. "Yes." However, they wondered why the sect master wouldn''t want to tell the girl. Obviously, the sect master was the one who brought the girl here.


    Jun Jueshang left them some gold coins and then left after cautioning them.


    After seeing Jun Jueshang off, the couple exchanged nces before the middle-aged man pushed the woman. "Go in. Check if the girl is already awake."


    "Alright." The woman entered and had a look. After observing that the woman was still sleeping, she left quietly.


    Wanyan Qianhua did not awake until almost noon. As soon as the woman saw her, she hurriedly helped her up and eximed, "Miss, you''re finally awake!"


    Wanyan Qianhua rubbed her temples, raised her beautiful eyes to look at the woman, and then looked around the room, asking, "Why am I here?"Her voice was hoarse, and she sounded less charming than usual.


    "It rained heavilyst night. You fainted in front of my house. We heard the noise, so we brought you home." She went on to say, "Your clothes were wetst night, so I helped you change into a new one of mine. I washed and dried your clothes so that you can wear themter."<novelsnext></novelsnext>


    She poured a cup of water as she exined. "Miss, please drink some water to keep your throat moist. I made porridge; eat some to warm up your body." With that, she turned and walked away.


    Wanyan Qianhua held the cup and drank the water, immediately feeling her parched throat moisten. She still felt weak when she leaned on the bed, so she didn''t get up.


    Outside, the middle-aged man observed the woman scooping the porridge and asked, "Is the girl awake?"


    "She''s awake." The woman replied and carried the porridge to the back room.


    When the middle-aged man saw this, he called out to the woman as she walked away. "Then take good care of her at home! I am going hunting for some animals." Since there was a girl at home, it would be inconvenient for him to stay there as an adult man, so he would leave to hunt and return with more food.


    After helping Wanyan Qianhua get ready, the woman brought her porridge and told her, "Miss, your body is weak right now, so you shouldn''t eat anything too greasy. Let''s start with a bowl of clear porridge."


    "Thank you very much." Wanyan Qianhua said. She took the porridge and ate it by herself.


    The woman sat by and watched, her eyes shing as she noticed her elegant bearing. "Miss, you were caught in the rainst night and had a fever," she remarked with a smile. "Although your fever has subsided, you''re still quite weak. With just my husband and me in this house, you''re wee to stay and recuperate."


    Wanyan Qianhua also knew that she was weak and couldn''t walk, so she said, "In that case, I''ll trouble you."


    "Oh, that''s not trouble at all. We rarely have visitors where we live," the woman assured her, gently helping her lie down. "Take some rest."
