The daughter of the Marquis is too delicate, the abstinent prince pinches her waist and loves her

Chapter 37 Still unwilling to admit it?

Sheng Yunqing glanced at Bai who was standing beside Sheng Qiuyao, and saw that Bai's eyes were wandering. When she saw Sheng Yunqing looking at her, she turned her head away in fear.

Mrs. Bai has been feeling very weak these days and has seen many doctors but to no avail.

Heart disease needs to be treated with heart medicine. She knew that Sheng Yunqing was holding a secret that she herself didn't know. Whenever she met Sheng Yunqing, she would always be so anxious that she would sweat all over.

Sheng Yunqing narrowed her eyes slightly. She had prepared a lot of supplements for Sheng Qiuyao these days, just to prevent Bai's health from affecting her.

She gritted her teeth. This Bai family is really hurting others and themselves!

Sheng Qiuyao's wedding is scheduled for next month, and the mansion has already started preparing for her wedding.

Sheng Yunqing was busy preparing various generous dowries every day. The marriage of the legitimate daughter of the marquis's mansion must be grand and glorious.

While he was counting the accounts in the room, a bell tied with silk thread in the room made a crisp sound.

Her ears twitched, she frowned, stood up suddenly, threw down the abacus in her hand and hurried out.

Bai sat in the room worriedly, took out a small packet of medicine powder from her sleeve, opened it and poured it into the water, staring at it in a daze, a tear running down her eye.

"Mother, the wedding dress is ready."

Hearing the voice, Bai immediately wiped her tears and put the cup down.

Turning around, she saw Sheng Qiuyao walking in with her skirt lifted, and the maid behind her was holding the luxurious wedding dress.

Bai raised her hand and stroked the delicate embroidery on it, her expression showing relief. She took Sheng Qiuyao's hand and said, "Put it on quickly and show it to mother."

Sheng Qiuyao nodded, and the maid took her wedding dress to the back of the screen to change.

Wearing a fiery red wedding dress, Sheng Qiuyao turned around in front of the floor-length bronze mirror and said with a smile, "Mom, does it look good?"

Bai looked at the graceful girl, her eyes slightly reddened, and she said in a hoarse voice: "Beautiful... beautiful..."

Sheng Qiuyao's pretty face was filled with a rare joy, stunningly beautiful.

"Yao'er has grown up..." Bai said softly, looking at her with reluctance.

He was already deeply sinful and should not have lived to this day. In order to make a deal with Bai Jinxiu, he had brought suffering to her two children.

I am still alive today, but I don’t know whose life I owe to him.

Now that Sheng Qiuyao has found her true love, Sheng Yi's leg has healed, and Sheng Yueying has recovered from her headache, it's time for her to go.

Thinking of this, she closed her eyes, drank the water mixed with the powder, and a few tears overflowed from the corners of her eyes.

Sheng Yunqing rushed in, snatched the cup from her hand and took a look, but it was already empty.

She dropped the cup, raised her hand and pressed a few acupoints on Bai's back, and Bai suddenly spat out the potion.

"Cough..." Bai choked and coughed, raised her hand to wipe the water stains from the corners of her mouth, stared at Sheng Yunqing in confusion, and asked, "What are you doing?"

Sheng Qiuyao heard the noise behind her, turned around, raised her eyebrows in confusion, and asked, "Eldest sister, what's wrong?"

Before she had taken a few steps forward, she frowned, squatted down, holding her stomach, and her face turned pale inch by inch: "It hurts... My stomach hurts..."

Bai stood up worriedly, walked to her, squatted down and supported her, and said, "Yao'er?"

Sheng Qiuyao's eyes went dark, and she fainted from the pain, falling into her arms. "Yao'er!" Bai was so frightened that her face turned pale, and she cried to the maid, "Call the doctor! Call the doctor!"

"Yes."

"No need." Sheng Yunqing raised his hand to stop them, and together with Bai Shi, they carried the unconscious Sheng Qiuyao to the bed.

She raised her hand to check Sheng Qiuyao's pulse and frowned solemnly.

Then, she raised her finger and pointed at her abdomen, moving it slowly upwards to her throat. Sheng Qiuyao frowned uncomfortably and a ball of black and red liquid spurted out of her mouth.

Bai's heart was hanging in the air, and she asked with red eyes: "What's wrong? What happened to my Yao'er? How could the bride-to-be be like this? My poor child..."

Sheng Yunqing narrowed his eyes slightly, took out a pill and gave it to her to swallow, then wiped the stains on the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief and said, "The Seven-Star Turtle is extremely difficult to find. After taking it, you will die within 49 days. You are really cruel."

Hearing this, Bai's heart skipped a beat, and she frowned and said, "I took the Seven Stars Turtle, what does it have to do with Yao'er?"

Sheng Yunqing snorted coldly and said, "Bai Jinxiu is dead, why are you not dead? Don't you have any doubts?"

Bai swallowed her saliva and broke out in a cold sweat. She squatted down in front of Sheng Yunqing, raised her hand and pulled her arm, pleadingly saying: "Yunqing, what do you know? Tell your aunt, okay?"

"In case you do something stupid again, I have to tell you." Sheng Yunqing sighed, held Sheng Qiuyao's hand tightly, and said, "Have you never noticed that Qiuyao is sickly and weak?"

"Yes...Yao'er had a serious illness when she was young, and she couldn't recover from it."

Sheng Yunqing sneered and said, "You still don't want to admit it?"

Bai's eyes gradually became panic-stricken, and he shook his head and said, "Impossible..."

"Bai Jinxiu lied to you! The person who lived with you and lent you life was Qiuyao!"

"Impossible!" Bai stared at her fiercely, her eyes gradually turning red, "You are lying! Yao'er is my daughter, how could I borrow her life!"

Her trembling hands gently stroked Sheng Qiuyao's face. The beautiful girl on the bed had just come of age not long ago and had grown into a graceful young lady.

But in an instant, she became as fragile as a porcelain doll, with her face and breathing so weak.

"Even if that's the case, the Seven-Star Tura will take forty-nine days to break out. How could it happen in an instant..." Bai asked unwillingly.

"The spell Bai Jinxiu gave you is very poisonous. Once your energy is weakened, Qiu Yao will have to compensate you twice as much. You took twice the poison, and she suffered twice as much."

Sheng Yunqing touched her pulse, exhaled softly, and said, "Fortunately you didn't drink much, otherwise even a god would have difficulty saving you."

"How could this happen..." Bai was stunned for a long time, and then she broke down and cried, "My Yao'er! My Yao'er! It's all because of your mother that you were harmed!"

Her legs went limp and she fell to the ground, crying so hard that she almost fainted.

Sheng Yunqing frowned, raised his hand and grabbed her arm, saying: "Qiuyao is only a breath away now. If you continue to be so heartbroken, do you want to exhaust all her energy before you give up?!"

Hearing this, Bai slowly stopped crying, closed her eyes and tried to calm herself down. The saliva she swallowed could not soothe the bitterness in her throat.

Sheng Yunqing raised his hand to push away the loose hair on Sheng Qiuyao's forehead and said, "Don't worry, I will keep Qiuyao safe."

Bai slowly clenched her fists, gritted her teeth and ran out of the house.
