Ji Yushu came early in the morning to Prince Rui’s mansion. Ever since Xie Jingxing bought this large house in Yanqing Alley, other than going to Exiled Immortal Pawnshop to check the accounts, Ji Yushu spent most of his time playing with the cat in Prince Rui’s mansion.
Seeing Xie Jingxing walking over from afar, Ji Yushu called out, “Third Brother!”
Xie Jingxing could not be bothered with him. The white tiger broke free from Ji Yushu’s arms and quickly ran to Xie Jingxing’s side. Gao Yang came out from the other side. He did not return to the palace yesterday and stayed in Prince Rui’s mansion.
“Are you going to the Shen mansion to treat Miss Luo again?” Ji Yushu asked.
At the mention of this, Gao Yang felt a headache coming on. He had treated many people, be it the consorts in the palace, the emperor, or the madams and daughters of high-ranking officials. This was the first time he had seen someone like Luo Tan. She was clearly already so weak a few days ago that her life was at stake. In the end, as soon as she felt slightly better, she started practicing martial arts in the courtyard of the Shen family, saying that after Shen Miao’s incident, she realized that you could only protect people when you were strong enough.
She was not concerned about her own health at all.
With her tiring herself out everyday, how could her wound heal quickly? Whenever the wound didn’t show signs of healing, Luo Tan would look at Gao Yang suspiciously and ask, “Are you really a doctor from the palace? Why are you worse than the apprentices in our medical clinic in Spring City?”
Gao Yang had never encountered such an uncooperative patient in his life, and she did not have any respect for him. If not for the fact that Luo Tan was afraid Gao Yang would reveal the secret of her going to see Prince Rui that day, Gao Yang felt that Luo Tan might have peed on his head.
Seeing that Gao Yang was absent-minded, Ji Yushu nudged him with his arm. “Why are you in a daze in broad daylight? You look like a fool.”
Gao Yang came back to his senses and looked at Ji Yushu in disdain. “Do you think everyone is like you?”
Xie Jingxing suddenly asked, “How’s Luo Ling?”
Gao Yang was caught off guard and wondered why Xie Jingxing would ask about Luo Ling. He said, “He’s not seriously injured.”
“How’s his hand?”
“Hand?” Gao Yang said, “His right hand is crippled. Are you doubting my analysis?”
Xie Jingxing turned around and looked at Gao Yang with displeasure. “Can’t you treat his hand?”
“Although my medical skills are brilliant, I’m not a divine doctor.” Gao Yang said helplessly, “The injury on his right hand is too deep. There’s nothing I can do. What kind of relationship do you have with him? Even if you want to treat Shen Miao well, Luo Ling is just her cousin, why do you have to take care of him too?” Gao Yang said in disbelief, “You might as well help everyone in the world.”
Xie Jingxing raised an eyebrow. “Who said I want to take care of him?”
“Then why are you concerned about his injury?” Gao Yang was puzzled.
“I know!” Ji Yushu, who had been left aside, finally found a chance to chime in. He interrupted and said, “I know, I know!” He rubbed his chin proudly and had the expression of an aha moment. “Young Master Luo was injured because of Fifth Miss Shen. If Young Master Luo can’t get well, Fifth Miss Shen will inevitably blame herself. Third Brother and Fifth Miss Shen are very close, so he naturally doesn’t want to see Fifth Miss Shen sad. Isn’t that right, Third Brother?”
Xie Jingxing looked at him coldly. Ji Yushu rubbed his nose and whispered, “I think that makes sense.”
