As you quietly entered the emperor's chamber, you found him asleep, his face displaying the effects of his illness, the evidence of a terrible condition clear in his appearance. Taking a deep breath and mustering your courage, you gently applied the wet cloth to his forehead, treating him for his fever. However, just as you began, Chongyun's eyelids slowly opened, and his eyes widened as he flinched away from your touch and averted his gaze, peering at you through narrowed eyebrows. His initial reaction to you seemed to indicate a general unease and discomfort with your presence.

"Leave immediately." He demanded, with a cold and detached tone. His gaze was sharp and piercing as it fell upon you, and his demeanor was uncompromising as he turned away from your attempts to assist him, seemingly dismissing any care or help you wished to offer.
