Gu Qingxue looked out of the window in confusion and realized that the sky had already turned dark.

Gu Qingxue could not help but feel surprised. She looked at the book in her hand and realized that she had already read more than half of the book. There was only a little bit left to finish.

She actually finished reading so many books without even realizing it?

After she realized how long it had been, her stomach suddenly rumbled. She was so hungry that her throat was burning.

Gu Qingxue furrowed her brows and put down the book in her hand. She instructed Qin Yun in a hoarse voice, “Bring me some tea and food. I want to eat something first.”

Qin Yun nodded her head vigorously. Then, she followed Gu Qingxue’s instructions and went to prepare.

Qin Yun quickly served tea and some snacks. Then, she asked the servants to serve the meal as quickly as possible.

Qin Yun was very considerate. She had prepared food that was easy to digest for Gu Qingxue. Even though Gu Qingxue hurriedly ate a lot, she did not feel uncomfortable. She raised her hand to take a sip of tea and immediately suppressed the panic and hunger in her heart.

“Eldest Miss, you were in a hurry to eat just now. Quickly drink some tea, so that you won’t feel uncomfortable later.” Qin Yun worriedly served the tea to Gu Qingxue.

Gu Qingxue nodded and accepted the cup of tea. After taking two sips, she felt that the greasy feeling in her throat had indeed dissipated quite a bit. She could not help but let out a long sigh of relief.

“Eldest Miss, in the future, even if you are reading, you should pay more attention to your time. You can’t always delay your meals because of reading. It’s not good for your health. When the Old Madam and the children find out about this, they will definitely be worried about you,” Qin Yun said with a frown.

Gu Qingxue’s heart was in her throat. She hurriedly waved her hand at Qin Yun and said, “You can’t tell them about this. I’ll be more careful in the future. Speaking of which, these books on Gu Masters are really interesting, I’ll get engrossed if I don’t pay attention.”

“Young Miss should take care of your body. You’ve been reading for a whole day and should be tired. Why don’t this servant prepare some hot water for you to take a bath and rest?” Qin Yun said considerately.

Gu Qingxue was about to agree when she saw Liu Yi cross the threshold and walk in.

After entering the room, Liu Yi first looked at Qin Yun before shifting his gaze away and bowing to Gu Qingxue. “Miss Gu, His Highness has heard about today’s incident and would like to invite you to his study room for a chat.”

Gu Qingxue nodded, then stood up. “Yes, I am. Qin Yun, go and tell Cui’er to order the others to prepare hot water for me to take a bath and change my clothes. Young Master Liu Yi, Qin Yun was previously poisoned, and her body is still very weak. I’m afraid it’s not very convenient for her to go back alone. I wonder if you’re willing to take the trouble and send Qin Yun back for me?”

“Eldest Miss…!” Qin Yun immediately understood Gu Qingxue’s meaning. Her face instantly flushed red as she glanced at Liu Yi.

How could Liu Yi refuse? he agreed without thinking, “Of course, Eldest Miss Gu, please go to the study room by yourself. His Royal Highness is waiting for you in the study room.

Gu Qingxue nodded and winked at Qin Yun, who was beside her. Then, she strode away.

Qin Yun kept her head down and watched as Gu Qingxue strode away. Then, she watched as Liu Yi came over to her..
