"Un, Little Beauty!"
As if he had smelled the scent of a beauty, Fang Tao, who was still eating his barbeque, suddenly raised his head. His eyes were like searchlights looking for a target.
"My saliva is all over the plate!"
However, the girl actually walked towards Fang Tao.
"It smells so good. Can I eat it?"
She first looked at the barbecue on the table, then looked at Xia Wanqing and Fang Tao in anticipation.
"Little Beauty, eat, it doesn't matter. Just eat as much as you can and it'll be enough."
Fang Tao chuckled.
"This guy, is he rich?"
Xia Wanqing looked at Fang Tao speechlessly, but also did not say a word.
"Yeah, then I won't be polite!"
Seeing that Fang Tao had agreed, the girl let out a loud cry, picked up a bunch of chicken wings, and started to eat.
"Miss, you can't casually eat things that belong to strangers."
At this time, the old man behind the girl finally arrived and hurriedly said.
As he spoke, the old man looked at Xia Wanqing and Fang Tao cautiously.
"It's very delicious. Uncle Chen, please have some."
Without hesitation, the girl picked up another barbeque and passed it to the old man.
Looking at the barbeque in front of him, the old man didn't know whether to laugh or cry. With a final sigh, he retreated to a side.
However, even though the old man had retreated to the side, he still looked vigilantly at Fang Tao.
"Little Beauty, do your family know how cute you are?"
Ignoring the old man, Fang Tao looked at the girl with a smile and asked, in a low voice, "What do you want?"
At the side, Xia Wanqing could not help but roll her eyes.
[How can you be so cheap?]
"Little brother, you'd better not have any ill intentions towards our young miss."
The old man behind the girl stood up once again and looked at Fang Tao warily.
It was as if Fang Tao was about to take the girl away.
"Uncle, can you not be so nervous, we're just chatting."
Fang Tao looked at the old man, a bit speechless.
Isn't this old man being too vigilant?
However, Fang Tao did not care. Looking at the girl in front of him gave him an inexplicable feeling of intimacy.
That was especially true when he saw Fang Wei's bright, watery eyes, which contained not even the slightest bit of impurities. Those eyes had deeply touched Fang Tao's memories.
The girl in front of him looked so much like the little girl Meng Xi he had taken in before.
However, was the current Meng Xi doing well?
All of a sudden, Fang Tao fell into a state of endless reminiscence.
"What happened to him?"
Seeing Fang Tao's expression gradually darken, Xia Wanqing's heart was moved, and could not help but be suspicious.
That kind of feeling was as if he was reminiscing about something. It was filled with an inexhaustible sadness that would cause anyone who heard of it to feel sad.
For the first time, Xia Wanqing had a sliver of wanting to care for Fang Tao.
With Xia Wanqing's personality, even if Fang Tao did not say anything, he would still not ask.
"Wow, I'm so full!"
In the end, the silence was broken by the Little Beauty's satisfied voice.
Fang Tao looked at the girl with a smile, his eyes filled with love.
"Little Beauty, can you give me your hand?"
Fang Tao suddenly asked.
"Fang Tao, don't go too far!"
Hearing that, Xia Wanqing's original feeling was immediately shattered, she could not help but shout out.
She was a little girl, but Fang Tao could actually do it!
"Kid, you better stay away from the little miss right now or you'll regret it."
At this time, the elder took a step forward. It seemed as if he was going to make a move at any moment.
Fang Tao was speechless when he saw the two of them react so intensely.
Little Beauty also blinked her cute big eyes and looked at Xia Wanqing and the old man strangely.
"What are you doing?" I just wanted to see the condition of Little Beauty. "
Under the covetous gazes of the two pairs of eyes, Fang Tao said somewhat helplessly.
The other reason why he had such a good impression of the little girl was because she was in the same boat as Meng Xi.
In his previous life, Fang Tao had spent over a hundred years to cure Meng Xi's illness, so he was naturally the most familiar with the illness.
When he saw the Little Beauty, he immediately knew that there was something wrong with the other party.
He knew how painful it would be when the illness flared up, but he could not feel any signs of being tortured by the illness on the little girl's body.
An optimistic, strong girl like Meng Xi.
"What condition? "Fang Tao, don't talk nonsense."
But towards Fang Tao's words, Xia Wanqing had a face full of disbelief, and cast a doubtful gaze.
She didn't believe that this guy knew any medical skills. That was simply heaven-defying.
"When I was playing medicine, I didn't know what your ancestors were doing." Fang Tao twitched his mouth, looked at Xia Wanqing, and jokingly said.
Back when he was dominating the Nine Heavenly Realms, it was hard to say if the people on Earth even had medical skills.
"Brat, what nonsense are you spouting? How could our young mistress be sick!"
The old man's eyes were wide as he stared at Fang Tao, his muscles tensed.
"At the end of each month, do you feel a stream of energy flowing through your body, accompanied by a needle-like pain?"
Ignoring the old man, Fang Tao asked.
When the girl heard this, her face immediately revealed a surprised expression. However, the moment she said those words, she quickly covered her mouth.
Her parents had warned her not to let anyone else know about her situation.
"Looks like I'm right."
Seeing the little girl in such a state, Fang Tao laughed.
"Come, give me your hand. Big brother will help you take a look."
Fang Tao looked at the girl and said,
"Could it be that he's a godly doctor in seclusion?"
As the steward of the Tong Family, the old man naturally knew about the young miss' situation. Seeing Fang Tao speak about the crux of the problem so easily, he couldn't help but feel suspicious and didn't try to stop him.
"Does he really know medicine?"
Regarding the mysterious Fang Tao, Xia Wanqing was still unable to see through him.
But from the looks of it, his medical skills were certain.
"Can you really help me?"
The girl's eyes went wide, and she looked at Fang Tao expectantly.
For some reason, she felt that Fang Tao was not a bad guy!
"I'll do my best."
Fang Tao nodded slightly and said with an amiable smile.
"But why are you helping me? We don't seem to know each other. "
"Because you and I are fated."
Fang Tao smiled and said earnestly.
In the eyes of an existence like Fang Tao, fate was a wondrous thing.
Many times, fate and fate were linked.
"Hur Hur Hur, you are so humorous."
Seeing that Fang Tao had become serious, the girl chuckled and at the same time, extended her arm that was as white and tender as a piece of jade.
Fang Tao did not comment on the girl's answer.
However, in the next moment, a serious expression appeared on his face. He then extended his middle finger and index finger and lightly tapped them on the girl's wrist.
"En, take my pulse?"
Seeing the girl's two fingers constantly jumping, Xia Wanqing's eyes flashed with a different light as he looked at Fang Tao in disbelief.
This method seemed to have some sort of law, but it was different from the pulse checking method of the current world.
"This Fang Tao is really getting more and more mysterious."
As he thought about it in his heart, Xia Wanqing retracted his mind and looked at the scene before him.
Fang Tao took a total of five minutes before he retracted his hand.
Xia Wanqing, on the other hand, was shocked as she looked at Fang Tao in shock.
At this moment, Fang Tao's forehead was covered in a fine layer of sweat. His originally rosy face had actually turned pale and his lips had turned a little purple.
Was this caused by him taking his pulse?
But what sort of pulse control could cause such a huge consumption of energy?
Xia Wanqing was puzzled, but the shock became more and more intense.
"Huff …"
Withdrawing his hand, Fang Tao let out a long breath and looked at the girl.
The girl looked very nervous when Fang Tao looked at her, her big eyes staring straight at him.
Off to the side, the old man looked anxiously at Fang Tao, waiting for his answer.
"Fortunately, it's not to the point that there's no cure."
Finally, after wiping off his sweat, Fang Tao spoke leisurely.
"..."
Hearing this, Xia Wanqing was instantly speechless.
What did he mean by 'there's no cure'?
Was it still possible to save him?
"However, if I want to cure him thoroughly, I'm afraid it's impossible right now."
As he spoke, Fang Tao looked towards Xia Wanqing. "Prepare a pen and paper for me."
Seeing Fang Tao's casual expression, although Xia Wanqing was not happy, she still took out a pen and paper from her bag and passed it to Fang Tao.
"I want to see what tricks you can play." Looking at Fang Tao, Xia Wanqing thought in his heart.
"Butler, do you think so? According to the medicinal ingredients written above, prepare ten portions for Little Beauty to boil one portion per day."
Xia Wanqing wanted to take a look at what was written on the slip, but unfortunately, she could not see anything.
"I'm afraid I was exposed on the spot."
Xia Wanqing thought unhappily in her heart.
However, it was obvious that he couldn't see it now.
"Remember, the fire must last for three hours."
It was at this point that Fang Tao once again emphasized his point.
Although the old man was puzzled, he still kept the paper with the prescription.
"Why are you helping the young lady?"
Staring dead at Fang Tao, the old man asked in a low voice.
To this, Fang Tao only smiled, "I've already said it before, I'm destined to be with Little Beauty."
Fang Tao spoke very casually, but the old man didn't say anything.
"Miss, let's go."
Turning around, the elder said to the girl.
Even though the girl was unwilling, she knew that her parents must have been very anxious when she sneaked out. Thus, she didn't object.
