Jealousy?
Yu Zhe woke up from his endless vomiting last night. The sudden dropped of temperature brought by the snow had made his treatment almost ineffective. Luckily, the antidote expelled all the poison despite the coldness of the night.
His garment was full of nasty stains and he had a horrible smell.
"Ughh..." he groaned and grabbed the jar of water not far from where he slept. With no reservation, he gulped the entire liquid in just a few seconds.
"Ahh!" he exhaled and wiped his mouth using the back of his hands. Such a gesture was too far from his noble status.
Jang Ji was observing him from a far distance. He had been there for about an hour already - just observing the man while sleeping.
When Jang Ji woke up at dawn, the first thing he worried about was the condition of the boy. To him, poisoning was a serious matter. He wanted to make sure that the boy was still alive.
