Transmigrated As My Former Uncle's Sweetheart



By the time she snapped out of her thoughts, she heard his footsteps moving away.

She felt like every ounce of strength had been pulled out of her as she leaned against the horse-drawn carriage weakly. She felt quite listless.

Hexin did not even notice when Yuan You got into the carriage.

She wondered if it was her lack of sleep that made her begin to get drowsy and in the bumpy carriage. She dozed off again.

By the time they arrived at the foot of White Eagle Mountain, it was already evening.

Yuan You could not bear to wake Hexin up when she saw how soundly Hexin was sleeping, but they had already reached their destination, so Yuan You had no choice but to wake her up.

"Cousin Hexin, we've reached White Eagle Mountain. You should wake up now."

However, Hexin did not react to Yuan You's calls despite numerous efforts. Yuan You found this strange.

"Wake up, Cousin Hexin!" Yuan You leaned in closer and reached out to pat Hexin's cheek. The heat emanating from her palm shocked Yuan You.

"Yikes, that's hot!"

She hastily felt Hexin's forehead—it was even hotter there.

Yuan You finally realized something was not right and quickly pulled up the blinds. She was about to call for help when she saw Long Yin appearing from behind. When Yuan You saw him, she quickly shouted, "Crown Prince Long, Cousin Hexin is sick…"

The look on Long Yin's face sank when he heard this. He quickly got into the carriage. "What's wrong with her?"

"I have no idea either. I can't wake Cousin Hexin up no matter what I did, and her forehead is burning," Yuan You said with slight panic.

Long Yin leaned forward to check Hexin's temperature and found that her forehead was indeed burning up. He checked her pulse and confirmed that she had caught a cold.

He did not say another word and immediately carried her in his arms.

Yuan You quickly followed him out of the carriage.

"Crown Prince Long, what's wrong with Cousin Hexin?"

"She has a fever," Long Yin said. He instructed Qi Heng to get some medicine from the little town while he moved Hexin toward the direction of the temporary imperial residence.

There was one of these buildings in White Eagle Mountain and Long Yin had gotten a token of authority from Beitang You before coming here.

It was already the next day when Hexin finally woke up.

"You're finally awake, Cousin Hexin." Yuan You was greatly relieved to see her awake. She reached her hand out to check Hexin's forehead and was pleased to find that Hexin was no longer burning up.

"What happened to me?" Hexin tried to sit up.

Yuan You quickly helped her up when she saw this and took a pillow to put behind Hexin's back.

"You caught a cold and passed out. Crown Prince Long took care of you the entire night." At this point, Yuan You winked at Hexin coyly. "He was really taking good care of you. You were burning up with a fever and your body temperature was fluctuating between hot and cold. Lucky for you that Crown Prince Long took care of you without resting."

Hexin was taken aback. "I was sick?" She massaged her forehead. No wonder she felt a little weak. But, Big Bro Long Yin, he…

"That's right. Crown Prince Long said that you might have caught a cold after you fell into the water two days ago," said Yuan You.

Hexin immediately looked around her.

"You can stop looking around. Crown Prince Long didn't sleep a wink the entire night. When he saw your condition stabilize, he went to take a bath and change into some clean clothes," Yuan You said with a giggle. She knew instantly what Hexin was trying to do.

Hexin felt a little embarrassed.

While they were chatting, Long Yin came in with a bowl of freshly boiled medicine. His long hair fell freely over his back and there was still some water at the ends of his hair. Clearly, he had just taken a bath.

For some reason, Hexin suddenly felt uncomfortable and awkward when she saw him walk in.

This was especially so when she was just told how he had taken care of her the entire night. It made her even more fidgety.

Yuan You blinked as she watched both of them and said, "I'm starving. I'll go have my meal first. Please take care of Cousin Hexin for me, Crown Prince Long." With that, she slipped away before either of them could speak.

Hexin wanted to stop Yuan You, but it was too late.

She felt a little frustrated as she watched the man walk over. She quietly fumed at Yuan You for being treacherous enough to leave her alone in the room.
