Chapter 479 - 229: A Big Squeeze

[I’m so anxious...]

[So anxious that I wish I could speak immediately. What’s worse, I’ve been worrying for so long, and now my head hurts so much.]

[Wuuu, entering a dream really drains a lot of spiritual power.]

"I’m sorry, little sister, but we really can’t be entirely blamed for this..."

"Think about it, both your origins and the matter of hearing thoughts are so bizarre and unbelievable. How could we even begin to tell you?"

"Besides, you are naturally lively and always love to think about all sorts of interesting things. Father and mother were afraid that knowing this would affect your personality."

"Because this matter is so significant, it’s natural that Father and Mother would have more considerations."

"Apart from worrying about affecting your personality, they were also worried that since you just came to this world and aren’t familiar with us, you wouldn’t be able to handle knowing such a thing and wouldn’t know how to face us..."

Yun Wanye softly explained, patiently comforting her.

Father and mother indeed had a lot of concerns. If he hadn’t told Father that she would feel unwell after entering dreams, making Father worry for her health, who knows when he would have agreed to tell her about this.

"In any case, we are sorry to you, little sister, for making you suffer. Your medical skill is so great, do you have a way to ease the discomfort?"

"Whatever medicinal herbs you need, just tell your second brother, and he’ll personally go find them."

Yun Wanyao nodded repeatedly, saying, "That’s right. Whatever little sister needs, just tell us and we’ll definitely find it for you."

[Really? That’s great hahaha...]

Upon hearing this, Yun Wanqing’s eyes instantly brightened, and she felt that her headache had lessened.

Things she had wanted so much to do before but couldn’t due to her physical limitations were now finally possible, which made Yun Wanqing immensely happy.

"Mm, of course it’s true. So, does little sister really have a way to alleviate the discomfort? What does little sister need?"

Yun Wanye slowly let out a breath, thinking that if there really was a way to ease his little sister’s discomfort, it would lessen his guilt a bit.

[Yes, yes, of course, there’s a way. I need the Heavenly Snow Lotus, Ginseng King, Earth Vein Purple Ganoderma, Hundred-year-old Yellow Essence...]

Seizing the opportunity that presented itself, Yun Wanqing didn’t hold back and excitedly listed dozens of herbs, most of which were precious and rare kinds.

[Hmm, that’s about it. Can second brother find them? How long would it take?]

Several of the herbs are absolutely rare and can’t be found in the outside world, but if little sister needs them, no matter how difficult it is, he vows to get them.

Yun Wanye carefully memorized all the herb names, squinting his eyes as he secretly calculated in his mind.

"Mm, rest assured, little sister, second brother can find them. It’s hard to say how long it will take, but second brother promises to get them to you as soon as possible."

[Alright, alright, thank you so much, second brother.]

Yun Wanqing happily thanked him in her heart.

Seeing her happy, Yun Wanye’s lips curled up involuntarily, "You’re welcome. Now, little sister, get some rest. I’ll go find the herbs."

[Mm, okay, goodbye, second brother, take care.]

Yun Wanqing waved her little hand to bid him farewell.

After sending off Yun Wanye, Yun Wanqing lazily turned her gaze to Yun Wanchen and Yun Wanyao.

[Big brother, sister, my head hurts so much. I want to sleep. If there’s nothing important, let’s talk after I wake up.]

"Oh, alright, little sister, go to sleep, and big brother and I won’t disturb you."

Yun Wanyao quickly responded.

[Okay, I’m going to sleep now!]

Responding with a sentence, Yun Wanqing closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

In the afternoon, Lady Yun and Yun Zheng returned from the front yard.

"Where’s Yun Wanye?"

Seeing the two siblings, but not Yun Wanye, Lady Yun curiously asked.

Yun Wanyao walked over, took her arm, and replied, "He’s gone to find herbs for little sister."

"Finding herbs?"

Lady Yun looked at her with confusion.

"Yes."

Yun Wanyao nodded, paused briefly, and explained the situation in a few words.

"Little sister already knows about us hearing her thoughts. She’s not feeling well, and those herbs are useful to her, so Yun Wanye went to find them..."

"Ah, Ningning already knows?"

Hearing this, Lady Yun was slightly surprised.

She already knew her husband had agreed to disclose this to Ningning, but she hadn’t expected it to happen so suddenly and so soon.

"What was Ningning’s reaction?"

"Little sister was very shocked initially and a bit emotional, but fortunately, she accepted it quickly."

Yun Wanyao thought it might be because Yun Wanqing’s spiritual power was heavily drained, causing her head to hurt and body to feel unwell, leaving her with little energy to dwell on it. Thus, she accepted it faster than expected.

"That’s good, that’s good..."

Lady Yun breathed a heavy sigh of relief, finally letting go of the burden that had weighed on her heart for a long time.

She had been worried that Ningning wouldn’t be able to accept it and that something bad might happen. Fortunately, she had worried too much.

After dinner,

Without alerting Lady Yun, Yun Wanyao decisively took Hua Wu and carried the sleeping Yun Wanqing away.

"Yu Luo, tell mother I’ve taken little sister away. Little sister will sleep with me tonight."

Yu Luo: "..."

"Miss, is it really okay for us to take the third miss away without the madam’s permission?"

Hua Wu followed behind Yun Wanyao, carrying a small bundle filled with Yun Wanqing’s clothes, diapers, and bibs, her face full of anxiety.

Although she also liked the third miss, taking her away without the madam’s permission made her uneasy.

"What’s wrong with it? She’s my sister. We haven’t even slept together yet; what’s wrong with taking her for one night? Mother won’t say anything, don’t worry."

Although her words were firm, Yun Wanyao’s heart wasn’t that assured. But she had no choice.

This was the only way to ensure that she would know when little sister woke up and that only she would be by her side.

"Alright, but miss, if the madam blames us, please protect your servant..."

Yun Wanqing slept soundly and hadn’t woken up since she fell asleep after drinking milk at noon.

Under the crescents of silvery moon and blooming lamps,

When Lady Yun returned to the bedroom after the busy day, she found Yun Wanqing gone from the bed and asked the bustling little maid to find out. Upon learning she’d been taken away by Yun Wanyao, she was instantly filled with helplessness.

"Madam, shall I fetch the third miss back?"

The little maid nervously asked, her body hunched.

Lady Yun glanced at the sky outside the window, shook her head, and sighed, "No need, carry on with your work. I’ll go to Yao’er’s place."

Why did Yao’er take Ningning away like this?

Ningning was still feeling unwell, what on earth was Yun Wanyao thinking?
