The Marriage of an Esteemed Supreme Healer, a Noble Ruler

2522 Side Story 26: Take Careless

Fantasy Divine Hall.

At some corner.

Chu Liuyue stood beside Rong Xiu, while Yan Qing was talking. “…After Peach Blossom Dock’s barrier broke, Fourth Young Master Lin tried to repair it several times but did not succeed. The last time he did so, he was affected by the repulsion, and the force erupted. He himself is injured. Luckily, the commotion has been appeased. I saw that Fourth Young Master Lin’s injuries were too serious, so I brought him back.”

Chu Liuyue’s expression looked slightly solemn as she nodded. “That should be the force the evil spirit left in it back then. Now that the evil spirit is dead, the remaining force shouldn’t be worried about. However, the suppression shouldn’t be underestimated. Lin Zhifei isn’t its match, so he ended up in this state.”

As she spoke, she looked inside.

Xiao Ba coincidentally walked out of the house.

“Master.” She came to Chu Liuyue.

Chu Liuyue asked, “How’s the injury?”

Xiao Ba sighed.”The exterior wounds have pretty much healed, but the internal injuries are rather serious. Even though his life is not in danger, he’s still unconscious.I’m not sure when he’ll awaken. He probably needs quite some time to fully recover.”

Chu Liuyue’s heart sank slightly, but she knew that this was the best outcome. Luckily, his life isn’t in danger. There shouldn’t be too big of a problem after he recuperates for a while.

She nodded and instructed, “During this period of time, you will be in charge of Lin Zhifei.”

Xiao Ba was stunned.

Yan Qing was also dazed as he looked over. However, he quickly retracted his gaze and had a normal expression.

Xiao Ba pointed at herself strangely. “Me?”

Chu Liuyue acknowledged. “Now that you’re in charge of the medicinal mountain, it’s more convenient for you to use herbs. You also handled his wounds. You know the injuries the best, so you should be in charge of him. However, you definitely can’t handle him yourself, so I’ll get Jian Fengchi to help you out.”

Hearing this, Xiao Ba felt that it made sense and immediately nodded. “Okay. Master, don’t worry. I’ll definitely take good care of Fourth Young Master Lin.”

Chu Liuyue nodded. Then, she entered to check on Lin Zhifei before she left with Rong Xiu.

There were only three people left in the house.

Xiao Ba counted the herbs and planned to produce a pill. Once she looked up, she realized that Yan Qing did not leave and was waiting outside.

She knitted her brows.

After that night, she was actually very annoyed at Yan Qing and wanted to salvage her situation. But after ten days, she didn’t seem angry when she saw him again.

There was no need.

She was never a patient person. After some time, her feelings for him had also disappeared.

Besides, Master had now instructed her to take care of Lin Zhifei. It would probably take quite some time and energy.

She could not be bothered to think of the rest. Hence, she did not speak and brought her herbs to the courtyard.

She had to use too many pills, and she couldn’t produce them in the house.

On this side, Yan Qing was waiting for Xiao Ba.

He waited for Xiao Ba to finish packing her items and walk over with much difficulty.

He took a deep breath in and planned to speak. “Xiao—”

The moment he said a word, Xiao Ba brushed past his shoulders without even looking.

Yan Qing pressed his lips against each other. He turned around, hastened his pace, and blocked her, saying, “I have something to tell you.”

Xiao Ba glanced at him in a seemingly smiling manner. “But I don’t want to hear it.”

How could he leave for ten days and not say anything? He left me waiting for so long. When he came back, he said that he had something to say, and he expected me to listen?

I refuse! I’ve always been hard to serve. Since when was I obedient?

Even though Xiao Ba thought of this, she forgot that they weren’t related. Yan Qing had no obligation to tell her if he stayed or left.

Yan Qing paused and detected the coldness in her tone. He was hesitant, but he still said, “Just two sentences.”

“I don’t want to hear a single word.” As Xiao Ba spoke, she walked past him and went forward.

Yan Qing panicked. He instinctively stretched out and wanted to hold her wrist. “Hold on.”

Xiao Ba’s first reaction was to avoid. In the end, she wasn’t careful and spilled all her herbs onto the floor.

“You!” Xiao Ba knitted her brows and was so angry that she laughed. “Left Divine General, what do you mean? Don’t you find it offensive to randomly pull a lady’s hand?”

Yan Qing’s fingers moved slightly, but he still let her go. “I won’t take up too much of your time.”

However, Xiao Ba had already squatted down to pick up the herbs as She grunted. “You’re not taking up my time. You’re taking up Fourth Young Master Lin’s time.”

The words in Yan Qing’s throat were suddenly stuck.

Xiao Ba did not look up, so she did not see his current expression. As she retrieved all the herbs, she said, “Fourth Young Master Lin’s injuries are very serious. Time is extremely precious. What matter do you have that’s so important that it is worth more than a human life?”

Yan Qing’s hand on the sword tightened slowly.

Xiao Ba had already stood up and turned around to leave. It seemed like she did not wish to speak to him further.

Yan Qing looked at her and suddenly asked, “You’re very worried about him?”

Xiao Ba paused in her tracks. Then, she turned around and glanced at Yan Qing in a seemingly smiling manner. “A physician has the heart of a parent. Left Divine General, haven’t you heard of it before? Besides, Fourth Young Master Lin is quite a nice person, and we can be considered friends. Even if Master didn’t give any instructions, I would’ve tried my best to nurse him back to good health.”

After a momentary pause, she continued, “His injuries are so serious. I would not leave him lying and not care about him.”

Yan Qing lowered his eyes slightly.

Xiao Ba naturally knew that she was being unreasonable.

She did need someone with Yan Qing’s standard to heal the wound on her waist to recover the fastest. However, she was angry and did not speak nicely.

Then, she walked to the courtyard and started producing pills.

Yan Qing did not go forward and did not speak.

He just recalled that when he walked out, Lin Zhifei lay on the bed and was unconscious with tightly shut eyes. His face was pale, but it did not affect his nonchalant and distant aura.

At Peach Blossom Dock previously, she once said that Fourth Young Master Lin was born with good looks. Now, the person was right before her.

She had to personally take care of Lin Zhifei until he woke up.

Coldness surfaced in Yan Qing’s eyes.
