Having been exposed to the sea breeze all day, Shen Li caught a cold.
It wasn't a serious illness, merely a case of the common cold.
But for Shen Li at that moment, any slight malady seemed to amplify.
"Madam..."
The maid approached the bed and called softly.
It was already afternoon, and Shen Li still hadn't gotten up. The maid didn't dare disturb her master's sleep, but if she continued to sleep like this and something went wrong...
Thinking of the previous maid, who had been punished for falling asleep during the night watch and failing to stop Shen Li from entering the great hall in the middle of the night.
"Cough cough..."
Shen Li coughed weakly from within the blankets, her eyes opening feebly.
Her head felt dizzy, her eyelids heavy, her throat seemed to be ablaze, and her body was limp and powerless.
Despite the discomfort, she felt it wasn't so bad.
Because she...
had made far too many mistakes, and she didn't know how to compensate for them.
