When they first met in the morning, Zhou Yun saw Chen Shu standing beside Zhou De. In her opinion, her father had betrayed her mother.

His wife had died mysteriously. As her husband, he not only did not investigate the truth, he even married another woman. This made Zhou Yun extremely dissatisfied.

But now, it seemed that it was probably because Zhou De really did not have the ability to do so, so he could only muddleheadedly live a poor and happy life.

Suddenly, Zhou Yun understood why her mother wanted her to leave Deer City and learn from her master for ten years before she could return to the Zhou family.

Thinking about it, it made sense. At that time, she was still young and did not have the ability to protect herself. Moreover, she had such an incompetent father. If Zhou Yun wanted to take revenge, she would undoubtedly be seeking her own self-destruction and soliciting her own death. She might even drag her father down with her.

Zhou Yun nodded and said, “The marriage must be declined. However, I’ll handle this matter. You don’t have to do anything.”

Chen Shu looked at Zhou Yun disapprovingly and said, “How can a young lady like you handle this? Let me and your father do it. The Fu family is the number one family in Jin City. Without an elder stepping forward, a young lady like you will be bullied.”

“Yes, your auntie is right. I’ll handle this matter with your auntie. Don’t worry, this is a society ruled by law. The two of us will be fine.” Zhou De held Chen Shu’s hand and said firmly.

At first, she had thought that Zhou De was heartless and ungrateful, and subsequently felt he was timid and weak. Now, he was protecting his family, and Zhou Yun felt that Zhou De and Chen Shu had become more pleasing to the eye.

She hadn’t expected a cowardly father and a timid stepmother to be willing to offend someone for her. It was a little remarkable.

“I have my own ideas on this matter. You two don’t have to interfere. I have a way.” Zhou Yun smiled for the first time that day.

Zhou De and Chen Shu inexplicably believed Zhou Yun’s words upon seeing her appearance and temperament. They nodded in unison and said, “Alright.”

At that moment, dozens of footsteps could be heard from outside the originally quiet nunnery. Ning Fu’s ears twitched, and his expression instantly became serious. He hastily ran into the patient’s room, wanting to move Fu Sen.

Unexpectedly, the moment he entered, he saw that the injured person was already sitting up on the bed.

“There seem to be a lot of people outside this courtyard. Do you want to hide? I’m afraid they are the accomplices of those people yesterday,” Ning Fu quickly said.

Fu Sen put down his phone and said, “Sir, don’t worry. Those people are here to pick me up. They won’t come in and disturb you.”

Ning Fu was relieved when he heard Fu Sen’s words. “Then sit down first. I’ll get you some porridge. Your body will recover faster if you have strength.”

Fu Sen looked down at the wound on his abdomen. His well-defined hand gently stroked the wound wrapped in gauze. He was slightly surprised. He had lost so much blood the day before that he had fallen unconscious. Logically speaking, his body should currently be weak and fatigued.

However, Fu Sen didn’t feel as though he had recovered from an illness. Instead, his entire body had a comfortable and refreshing feeling that he had never experienced before. The person who had treated him the previous night must not be simple.

If he could find this person, perhaps he would have a solution to the toxins in Xing’s body.

Fu Sen looked at Ning Fu and asked sincerely, “Sir, may I know who was the person who treated my injuries yesterday?”

Thinking of Miss’ instructions, Ning Fu said without raising his head, “It’s a doctor that my Miss invited. He’s at the foot of the mountain. I don’t know who he is exactly. However, in order to make you recover faster, my young Miss spent a lot of money to buy you the best medicine.”

Although Zhou Yun had given instructions not to let anyone know that she was the one who saved him, Ning Fu did not want Zhou Yun to do it for free. He had to mention this life-saving grace and let this person know how good his Miss was.

Fu Sen was a little disappointed. He then asked, “Can I see your Miss? I should thank her in person for saving my life.”

“My Miss has already left.” Ning Fu shook his head and said, “If you want to see her, you might have to wait until the Tomb Sweeping Festival or the anniversary of my Madam’s death.”

“Then may I ask, how should I address your Miss?” Fu Sen continued to ask.

“I’ve always called her Miss. I don’t know anything else.” Ning Fu placed the porridge and a side dish in front of Fu Sen and said, “Hurry up and eat.”

Fu Sen could feel that the old man before him was hiding something. It seemed that the young lady was unwilling to reveal her name.
