Capítulo 1750: Chapter 1757 Surgery Successful (1)

The Old Turtle did not disappoint Cai Wei. Although it moved very slowly, its careful thoughts and excellent craftsmanship prevailed. It took a whole day to finally complete the surgery for Liu Xi.

During this day, Cai Wei had been on edge, fearing both the failure of the surgery and the discovery of Liu Xi by Nangong Yi. This was because she had hidden Liu Xi in the Old Turtle’s Alchemy Room to conveniently monitor his wound healing and any signs of bodily rejection. Nangong Yi was completely unaware that someone was hidden in this space. He continued to happily play with the children all around the space. If he were to discover this, she wouldn’t be able to explain herself no matter what.

The next day, taking advantage of Nangong Yi going to court, Cai Wei ran to the alchemy room to visit Liu Xi, whose surgery had been successful.

“Great Immortal Turtle, how is he?”

The Old Turtle slowly said, “I have already applied the best trauma medicine to him and given him a Blood Returning Pill. I reckon he should be fine. With a rest of three to five days, he should be able to get out of bed.”

Upon hearing this, Cai Wei breathed a sigh of relief and repeatedly said, “Good, good, it’s finally successful. Oh, right, since he’s fine now, can I send him back to recuperate?”

“That’s possible, but the medicine must be applied and taken on time, otherwise the wound will become inflamed!” The Old Turtle said, then sluggishly went to fetch the medicinal ointments and pills for Liu Xi.

Cai Wei took the medicine prepared by the Old Turtle for Liu Xi and carefully noted the dosage and usage on paper. After recording this, she changed into plain clothes and left the palace, heading towards Bishui Villa.

She had to send Liu Xi out of the palace as soon as possible. Liu Xi’s current identity was no longer that of a eunuch. If Nangong Yi discovered his true identity, even with a hundred explanations, she wouldn’t be able to justify herself. He had long been suspicious of why Cai Wei treated Liu Xi so kindly. Cai Wei didn’t dare to reveal that the two were acquainted in a past life, to avoid him speculating about her past-life relationship with Liu Xi, or harboring concerns about Liu Xi, which could affect the feelings between husband and wife. So, she only said she appreciated Liu Xi’s intelligence and agility. Although Nangong Yi reluctantly believed her, he was still secretly displeased due to her excessive favoritism towards Liu Xi. However, because of his love for Cai Wei, he would only choose to overlook it.

If he knew that Liu Xi had his ding-ding reattached, restoring him to a non-eunuch status, it would be strange if he didn’t overthink it!

In a flash, Cai Wei had not left the palace for over a month. The last time she went out was to have her fortune told with Juhua. Now, over a month has passed; she wondered how Juhua was doing and whether Mo Zili had continued pursuing her. However, given Mo Zili’s stubborn nature, he likely wouldn’t give up.

Cai Wei thought about it and decided to invite Juhua out for a talk after sending Liu Xi off, to understand her recent situation.

Upon arriving at Bishui Villa, the housekeeper hurriedly came out to greet Cai Wei and led her to sit in the Flower Hall. This housekeeper was previously a young eunuch beside Liu Xi who had been helped out of the palace by him. Now, he lived comfortably as a major steward in Bishui Villa.

Huan Qiu, hearing about Cai Wei’s arrival, specifically came out to serve tea. It’s been a long time since they met, but Huan Qiu still retained that expressionless appearance. It seemed that all dead men had this kind of face, allowing no one to discern their joys and sorrows from their expressions.

“Huan Qiu, from today on, you should return to my side to serve!”

Cai Wei instructed calmly. Huan Qiu was Nangong Yi’s person. If she continued to stay by Liu Xi’s side, and if she found out Liu Xi’s identity, Nangong Yi would also find out!

Therefore, to prevent this from happening, she had to ensure Liu Xi recovered quickly and then send him away, letting him stay far from the capital, in a place where no one knew him, to start a new life!
