Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover

Devilwood was the best material for a primitive tribe to keep out the cold during the winter.

It was woody and fragrant. After being burned into charcoal, it could be boiled with water, and drinking it would be able to warm one's blood like how liquor did. Hence, the palace would ask for the tribe to burn a bunch of Devilwood when the winter started.

Due to its scarcity, however, there would only be one or two piles of Devilwood available throughout the winter.

Unexpectedly, the Devilwood that was prepared last night was not burned thoroughly. And because raw Devilwood was poisonous to the body, swallowing it by mistake would cause diarrhea and vomiting.

In the end, the witch doctor determined that it was the raw Devilwood that caused the illness.

After listening to their story, Vivian decided not to check on the goods and ran toward Agarwood Pavilion. She ran so fast that the voices of the maids trying to stop her faded into the background.

Ten minutes later, Vivian heard the sound of coughing coming from the floor above when she ran up the wooden building with carved beams.

Cough! Cough!

He's really sick!

She became even more worried. She ignored the fact that it was inappropriate for someone of her identity to be there and simply ran into the room.

The young man stood by the window dressed in a robe. His short dark hair was shaggy, and he was wearing a pair of soft-soled shoes. When Vivian entered the room, he was looking at something in his hand under the fading sunlight.

At a glance, he didn't look as upright and energetic as he used to be.

Is he really sick?

Why is he not resting? He's not even wearing proper clothing. The weather is so cold, and it's almost snowing.

Vivian got even more worried. She stepped into the room and went behind him.
