Going on the Trending Search Again, A Slap in the Face Warning (1)

Lady Ji's face turned ashen at the alarming news. "What happened?!" she exclaimed in distress.

"I—I don't know," the maid stammered, visibly shaken. "Miss Ji has been weak but hadn't coughed up blood before. Just moments ago, she coughed up a significant amount. The doctor has already been summoned."

Ji Qingwei's frail health always hovered on the brink of a crisis, prompting the Ji family to retain a dedicated team of physicians to avert any emergencies.

It had been quite some time since Ji Qingwei last experienced such a severe symptom. What was the cause for this sudden unexpected change?

Without another thought for Master Zhuang, Lady Ji hurriedly followed the maid to the inner chamber, her heart racing with worry.

Master Zhuang, too, was startled and concerned. "Did something startle Qingwei today?" he wondered aloud.
