Novel Full Murong Yun’s heart skipped a beat when he heard Luo Qianqian was tailed by a man disguised himself as an old man. He felt guilty and full of remorse for not giving her the chance to explain herself and checking on her first, indignation had clouded his judgement, it didn’t occur to him that he should at least give Qianqian a chance to explain herself before he got so riled up.
‘I’m lucky that Qianqian is all right, I dread to think what if… … I will never forgive myself if anything shall happen to Qianqian because of me!’
‘Someone has got his eyes on Qianqian! I need to find out who that person is! I wish I could arrange more shadow guards for her, but I know how she disapproves of making a scene!’
“Everything is fine now, Murong Yun. Yue Qiqi will help me to find out the man’s whereabouts, we can count on her. Come on, it’s bedtime now, Master Shifu asked me to come to the tavern earlier tomorrow. Good night.” with that Luo Qianqian snuggled up to Murong Yun, ‘so comfy.’
Luo Qianqian yawned and said to Murong Yun, “I heard an interesting thing on the street today, the annual auction is just around the corner, and most items this year are herbal medicines, rare herbal medicines! We can definitely try our luck there.”
Murong Yun patter her gently, “I’m aware too, leave it to me. Good night, Qianqian, you need to get up early tomorrow.”
“Good ni… …”, Luo Qianqian opened her eyes abruptly, “Murong Yun, I’m serious, stay out of what happened today, I want to solve this by myself, if nothing comes up, I will ask you to take over.”
Luo Qianqian meant to keep this whole thing a secret in the beginning, but on a second thought, truth would come out sooner or later, it was Murong Yun who she was dealing with, so she decided to tell him the truth.
The only reason she thought about hiding it from Murong Yun was because she didn’t want to cause any more trouble for Murong Yun, he already had a lot on his own plate.
“You got it.” Murong Yun replied and he swore in his heart no one could hurt Luo Qianqian again. He would settle scores with anyone who had hurt Luo Qianqian and he thought it was time she had her own influence… …
Luo Qianqian and Murong Yun would go to places together as usual after she finished classes in the tavern, the only difference was she would always show up in menswear.
Therefore, it had caused a rumor about her and Murong Yun.
Prince Eighth had found a new sweetheart, a male sweetheart! And he had forgotten his princess-to-be who he used to adore so much.
The two didn’t bother to refute the rumor, they would exchange a look and smile whenever they heard the rumor, the only thing mattered to them was how they felt about each other not how other people talked about them.
The auction would attract many guests as usual, it was one of the biggest events in the capital city.
Murong Yun had made an investigation on the items this year, there were six more medicines needed for his cure, and five of them would show up in the auction!
Luo Qianqian was even more thrilled than Murong Yun, “This is beyond great! We need to get them no matter what!”
Su Liancheng showed a triumphant smile, “Don’t you worry about a thing, we are loaded!”
Luo Qianqian wasn’t worried until she saw Su Liancheng’s smile, somehow her heart started thumping as something unexpected would take place at the auction.
“You… Su Liancheng… promise me you will behave yourself, this has everything to do with Murong Yun’s cure, no drama please… please…”
“Don’t worry, he will behave himself.” it was Murong Yun who had replied for Su Liancheng.
Luo Qianqian rubbed her forehead and nodded.
Two days had passed since Yue Qiqi agreed to investigate for Luo Qianqian, there was still no update. Luo Qianqian told herself to be patient because she was convinced Yue Qiqi wouldn’t lie to her.
Luo Qianqian managed to convince Murong Yun and Murong Xue to visit Guang Yao with her this day, Murong Yun showed up with a long face like Guang Yao owed him a large amount of money.
Guang Yao had been learning the art of healing from Lin Zimo, he could diagnose some basic sickness and make prescriptions, his prescriptions always worked like a charm.
The good news was there were more updates from Murong Yun’s subordinates about Guang Yao’s background, and Murong Yun had asked Lin Zimo to treat Guang Yao.
It was a matter of time before Guang Yao could control his own Internal Chi.
“My sister!” Guang Yao threw away the medical book in hand and threw himself at Luo Qianqian as soon as Luo Qianqian had set foot in the room.
Guang Yao looked like a changed person now, he was much more happier than he used to be. Luo Qianqian knew this was all because of Lin Zimo’s personality, Guang Yao had become less and less gloomy in Lin Zimo’s presence.
Luo Qianqian meant to stroke Guang Yao’a hair, but she had to change her hand’s trajectory due to Guang Yao’s height, she patted Guang Yao’s shoulder instead.
“What are you doing?” Luo Qianqian asked.
“Doctor Lin has been teaching me the art of healing, I was just reading a medical book. Doctor Lin has also found herbal medicines to treat me.” Guang Yao replied, Guang Yao was more than willing to share whatever was going on in his life with Luo Qianqian.
Luo Qianqian shot a glimpse at Lin Zimo with surprise, ‘It looks like you and Murong Yun have found who Guang Yao is, thank you for treating him!’
“Thank you Doctor Lin.” said Guang Yao.
Lin Zimo’s heart began to ache as he heard Luo Qianqian’s voice, he thought he was over it, but apparently he still had a long way to do, Lin Zimo lowered his head to avoid looking at Luo Qianqian in the eye, “No need to thank me, Fourth Lady, it is Prince Eighth who has asked me to treat Guang Yao, this is no trouble at all.”
‘What? Someone please pinch me now! Is this a dream!’ Luo Qianqian exclaimed in her heart, ‘Murong Yun has asked Doctor Lin to treat Guang Yao, but the way he talks about Guang Yao in front of me… …’
What Luo Qianqian didn’t know was Murong Yun had his own ulterior motives, he had already found out who Guang Yao really was, and Guang Yao had to leave Luo Qianqian because of who he really was, so he wanted to treat Guang Yao thus he would have no reason to stay any longer.
And of course both Su Liancheng and Lin Zimo knew about Murong Yun’s ulterior motives, Luo Qianqian was the only one who wasn’t in the know.
“Sister, I will protect you with my life once I’m well-healed. I will make them who try to hurt you regret!” said Guang Yao in earnest.
Luo Qianqian was so touched, but she was held into Murong Yun’s arms when she was about to say something to Guang Yao, “She has me, and that’s enough.”
Guang Yao stared back at Murong Yun, “She is my sister, it’s only natural for me to protect my sister.”
Murong Yun countered without batting an eyelid, “She is my wife, she doesn’t need anybody else to protect her.”
