Chapter 66: Chapter 66 Cooking
After adding him as a friend, Mu Lingyun continued, “I actually wanted you to also take his pulse and see how he should be treated. I didn’t expect to be driven out by him.”
“I never intended to take his pulse. Your medical skills are much better than mine. There’s actually no need for me to check someone you’ve already seen,” Jiang Jingxin sighed and said.
He had only wanted to meet that important person.
This meeting helped him realize the gap between the substitute and the original.
“He won’t let you see him, just leave him be, but you still have to help me. First, I need you to get me a set of acupuncture needles, the best you can find. Also, I’ll send you the list of herbal medicines he regularly needs; you help me get them. I’ll transfer some money to you first, and if it’s not enough, I’ll add more later,” Mu Lingyun said as she transferred a hundred thousand yuan to Jiang Jingxin via WeChat.
She had originally asked Xiao Kai to keep students from the Beijing University of Traditional Chinese Medicine around to help her with these things.
Unexpectedly, this decision led to a chance meeting with an old friend.
Jiang Jingxin didn’t refuse and accepted the money. In his heart, it was only right for him to serve his duty when the Crown Prince gave him money.
After they finished talking, Uncle Liang, the driver, also drove over.
“Miss, how is the Crown Prince doing? Is everything okay? The family is really worried,” Uncle Liang asked as Mu Lingyun and Jiang Jingxin got into the car.
“It’s all right now.”
“And who is this person?”
“He is Jiang Jingxin, a student from the Beijing University of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Please take me home first, then drop him off at the university,” Mu Lingyun said.
“Got it.”

When Mu Lingyun returned home, she found that everyone was waiting for her.
“Yunyun, is the Crown Prince okay?” Mu Wanqing hurried over to ask her as she walked in.
They had learned through the driver that Mu Lingyun had rushed to the Ji family because of the Crown Prince’s sudden illness.
So, they were somewhat worried.
Not that they were worried about what would happen to the Crown Prince, but they were afraid that if anything happened to him, Mu Lingyun might face the Ji family’s wrath.
Feeling their earnest gazes, Mu Lingyun felt a warm sensation in her heart.
Is this what family is? Is this what it feels like to have a family?
The feeling was truly wonderful.
She reached out and held onto Mu Wanqing’s arm, resting her head on her mother’s shoulder, and said with a smile, “What could happen to him? He’s fine. But I’m the one who’s starving. Mom, I want to eat tomato and beef noodles.”
Mu Wanqing was taken aback; this was the first time her daughter was being so affectionate and even acting coquettish about wanting noodles.
How could she possibly resist?
“I’ll go and make you tomato and beef noodles right now. Have a seat first and wait for me,” Mu Wanqing said as she pulled her daughter to sit down before dashing into the kitchen.
After Mu Wanqing disappeared, Mu Lingyun suddenly remembered something very important.
“Um… Brothers, one question, our mom can cook, right?” Mu Lingyun leaned closer to Rong Shicheng and Rong Shaofeng and asked softly.
This was an important question. If Mu Wanqing couldn’t cook, she had to stop her immediately; otherwise, whether to eat what was made became a dilemma.
The two of them thought seriously and unanimously shook their heads.
“We’ve never seen Mom cook.” @@novelbin@@
Mu Lingyun: …
After hearing their reply, she nearly ran out to drag Mu Wanqing back.
“Haha, don’t worry, your mother can not only cook, but she’s also quite good at it!” The Rong family’s elder burst into laughter.
On hearing this, the Rong brothers looked at each other. Their mother could cook, but they had never eaten it?
Rong Yinian smiled and said, “When you guys were younger, your mother would often cook. It was only after your sister went missing that she stopped cooking completely. Now that your sister is back, of course, she’s willing to cook again.”
Rong Shaofeng: …
Rong Shicheng: …
In other words, they just weren’t worthy, huh?
Another day doubting if they were really their parents’ children.
What do you think?
