The Divine Physician’s Overbearing Wife

Fei Xue closed her eyes…

She wanted to trust him just like how she had before.

However, if Zhao Yao could not give her a reasonable explanation, the bud of suspicion toward him inside of her heart would grow. Some day, it would turn into a big towering tree!

As Hong Yu was looking at Zhao Yao’s grotesque appearance with his pudgy tummy, she could not help but feel nauseated and almost threw up the rice she had eaten the night before.

“Our Manor Lady… likes you?”

“You shut up!” Zhao Yao glared at Hong Yu. His eyes were bloodshot. “I don’t know how you became Feng Ruqing’s female servant, and I will never believe your claim as a guardian of Fengyun Manor. Not only do I not believe it, but I will also report to Fengyun Manor Master, too, and you’ll wait for Fengyun Manor to hunt you down and kill you!”

Indeed.

Fengyun Manor’s Guardian could never become Feng Ruqing’s female servant.

If such a female servant were painting Fengyun Manor’s reputation black outside and was found out by Fengyun Manor, no doubt be it her or Feng Ruqing, they would… die!

Suddenly…

An old voice came from somewhere up ahead.

That voice was shrieking with along a sneer.

“When has it become Talon’s Gate’s business for my Fengyun Manor to hunt down and kill someone?”

That voice was quite familiar to Zhao Yao and Fei Xue.

They could not help by looking up. Suddenly, they saw an elderly man who was dressed in a gray robe slowly approaching them.

His pace was steady, and with his seemingly divine figure, he looked kind and gentle.

“Little Hong Yu, I’ve heard that Ziyan is around here? Back then, that girl Ziyan wanted to help Tang Yu, so she had distracted Qing Yuan and led him away and had almost separated Manor Master and me in two different worlds.¹ Bring that girl out immediately, I want to settle scores with her!”

As for the matter of Ziyan deceiving Qing Yuan, he would put it aside for the moment since it was Qing Yuan who did not recognize and see people clearly.

What he could not stand was the fact that Ziyan had almost killed Manor Master!

Back then, if Qing Yuan had not been led away when the Tang family was in such big trouble, Qing Yuan would have been the first to get notified.

The manor master and the manor lady would not have to bear so much of the sufferings as well…

She had caused the manor lady to be attacked by Fengyun Manor when the manor lady was trying to save manor master.

It was said that if the white phoenix did not appear in time, perhaps… they could not even wait until Master Lei Yun’s arrival!

“Fifth Elder.”

Hong Yu was delighted. “Finally, you’re here!”

“Ehem. I came here as soon as I got your message.” The fifth elder, Tian Qi, cleared his throat and sounded a little awkward. “Tell me, if I finish Ziyan off, would Manor Master and Manor Lady forgive me?”

Back then, if it were not because of him… Tang Yu would not have acted like a tyrant in Fengyun Manor.

He should not have allowed her in Fengyun Manor before he was absolutely sure of her identity.

Hong Yu remained silent for a while before she started to speak, “Manor Lady likes freckles. Next time when you see her, put some freckles on your face, and maybe she might not be able to bring herself to blame you anymore…”

Tian Qi’s eyes brightened up suddenly. However, he quickly hid the emotion in his eyes as he felt it was too obvious.

As his fingers caressed his white beard, he smiled kindly and said, “Well, that’s quite a great idea. To beg for Manor Lady’s forgiveness, all I can do is to sacrifice a little first.”

There was dead silence.

Zhao Yao was dumbstruck. It was impossible for him to not recognize Fengyun Manor’s fifth elder.

However, when he thought of how Tian Qi had addressed Hong Yu just now, a sense of anxiety dawned in his eyes. “Fifth… Fifth Elder, why are you here… she… is she really Hong Yu? But, I remember that Hong Yu doesn’t have freckles, why… ”

The corners of Hong Yu’s lips lifted into a smile. “Our Manor Lady likes people with freckles.”
