His Rui

Chapter 658 Zhao Zhang Wei Messed Up Again

Though he seemed to have heard the same words before from her mouth as well…but was it really necessary for her to rub on his face again and again? 

He wondered as he looked away from her calm eyes. 

His fists were clenched tightly. The muscle of his jaw twitched in anger. 

’Would have done the same if it was anyone else in his place’…Ha!

As if he had left that person alive. 

”…So Your Highness doesn’t need to come here.”

He heard her finishing. 

Zhao Zhang was filled with too much bitterness at this moment and Yi Huiqing’s each and every word was attacking his already bitter and wounded heart like salt on wounds. 

When he turned to look at her again, his face was devoid of any emotion and he said very calmly.

”This is my place.”

Yi Huiqing went silent at that. She seemed to know what he was going to say next and sure enough he continued and said 

”I can come here whenever I want. No one including you doesn’t have the right to stop me.”

Yi Huiqing looked calm and didn’t say anything in response.

After all, he was very correct and she didn’t have any counterattack. So she could only sigh at her fate and say politely

”Your Highness is right.”

However, her calm and peacefully attitude bothered Zhao Zhang Wei so much that he was confused as to what exactly he wanted. 

Did he want her to fight with him and then ask him to leave her chambers? 

No! 

He knew that she didn’t like his words. He just wanted her to be the real her in front of him. But when she was too real, she would say something that he would not be able to bear. 

The confused and conflicted Zhao Zhang Wei could only watch as Yi Huiqing lied down on the bed again and then closed her eyes to sleep. 

As if him being here or not …didn’t matter to her any longer. 

And he knew that he messed up again.

(Youxio Valley)

For the next three days, Li Rui just perofmed a few things in front of the physicians on Rong Ting’s body. She also had them do a few things in front of her in her assistance and corrected many things.

At least the old physician learned a lot in these three days and he was very happy at that. 

In his free time, he would go to some vacant place and read the things on his rice paper again and again. He would then also ask a few questions to Li Rui and with every answer, he would find his knowledge broadening.

Three days later, Li Rui was the idol in the old physician’s eyes. Whenever he would look at her, his eyes would be filled with worship as if he was looking at some kind of god. 

Xi Ying found it very weird and strictly warned him to stay in limits. The old physician tried his best but he just couldn’t control his excitement.   

When had he thought that he would Mi Luan! By now, he was sure that Li Rui was Mi Luan. 

The godly knowledge they talked about Mi Luan has, he had witnessed it. 

He wanted to scream it out to the world but he knew that he couldn’t because it could uput his idol into danger so he could only express his excitement like this. 

He even started to call Li Rui his shifu once but when the latter requested him not to do that he shifted to calling her ‘Rui’ like everyone called her.

It made him feel more closer to her …his idol.

On the day they were going to start the treatment, the old physician was the first person to wake up in the camp. 

Even the shadow guards who used to wake up early to prepare breakfast had not woken up. 

The old physician was not discouraged. 

He got ready first and then found some place and started to read his rice paper again in the light of a lamp. The sun had not risen yet completely. 

However, when he was reading, he suddenly heard a voice from his behind

”What are you reading, Pal?”

The old physician was startled on hearing the voice and the first thing he did was to hid the rice paper inside his robe. 

However, he was too late. 

Physician Ruan who was standing behind him had already noticed it. His eyes flickered as he saw him hiding the paper but he stayed calm all the while never expressing anything. 

”What are you doing here?”

The old physician asked Physician Ruan in a somewhat annoyed voice. He found the latter too annoying sometimes because every time he was trying to learn something, he would appear there and ask this and that. 

Physician Ruan’s eyes flashed with coldness when he saw the way the old physician talked to him. However, he still behaved politely

”I woke up to drink water and then noticed that you were not inside the tent. I was worried if you are alright or not so I came to check on you. Are you alright?”

The old physician somewhat calmed down when he realized that Physician Ruan was worrying for him so he nodded his head and said 

”I couldn’t sleep so I woke up and then got ready.”

”Ohhh”

Physician Ruan whispered. However, the old physician sighed bitterly when he saw him sitting down on the stone that was placed beside him. 

He knew that he could no longer do what he wanted to do. 

”So where are you from?”

He heard Physician Ruan asking him and just said something in response. It was not like he could tell him that he used to work at the Imperial Palace. 

After that, they continued to talk about something randomly …of course, a one-sided conversation in which the old physician was not interested at all. However, he didn’t want to be rude to the other person who was of the same age as him or perhaps older than him. 

He sighed in relief when shadow guards started to come out of the tent and he stood up from the stone immediately when he saw Gu Li coming out of his tent.

”I remember that I need to tell him something. We will talk later.”

He said and then hurriedly left from there without hearing the reply of the other person.   

On the other hand, Physician Ruan looked at his back with cold eyes. 

He needed to find out what is so important in that paper!
