Reborn As Divine Doctor to Rule the World

Chapter 19: Chapter 19: In My Heart, There Is Only You

The two exchanged gazes for a while before Pei Huaian shifted his eyes away first, lowering his head to kiss the child’s forehead.

The little one immediately broke into an adorable grin.

Looking into his pure eyes, Pei Huaian felt a strange emotion rising within him, but he quickly suppressed it.

The warm sunlight shone on the trio, and the bodyguard looking in through the window felt an inexplicable sense of harmony, as if they were a family of three all along.

The thought made him shudder, but he hadn’t expected his master to cherish the child so much.

Shao He was also surprised. The usually fussy child had fallen asleep in his arms and seemed to be sleeping very sweetly. @@novelbin@@

She carefully took the child and placed him on the bed.

Before Pei Huaian left, he reminded her again, “Gaining a reputation might not be a good thing for you.”

Shao He remained silent, giving him a deep look until Pei Huaian was far away; then her expression turned serious.

As days went by, Shao He’s patients increasingly became numerous, many of whom came by reputation.

In the Marquis Pingnan’s Mansion, Chu Yu hoped to make Luo Jiner his official wife soon and had invited the esteemed Imperial Doctor Zhang from the Imperial Medical Bureau to diagnose her, hoping to improve her condition.

After a thorough diagnosis, Imperial Doctor Zhang frowned deeply, stood up, and bowed, “The young lady suffers from a cold womb, making it almost impossible for her to conceive.”

“Is there really no way to treat it?” Chu Yu couldn’t accept this outcome; if his grandmother learned of it, she would never allow Jiner in.

Imperial Doctor Zhang sighed, “This old servant is powerless.”

Luo Jiner turned deathly pale and collapsed on the bed, prompting Chu Yu to quickly embrace her, consoling her gently.

Chu Yu looked at Imperial Doctor Zhang and asked, “What kind of medicine is needed to treat Jiner? Just name it, and I’ll provide whatever you need.”

“Marquis, even if we use Snow Lotus from the Heavenly Mountains, it cannot cure the lady’s cold womb condition!”

Imperial Doctor Zhang clenched his sleeves and wiped the sweat from his brow. A cold womb meant infertility, and no amount of conditioning could remedy it.

“Useless! A bunch of good-for-nothings!” Chu Yu couldn’t help but curse.

“Calm yourself, my lord… In fact, there is one person who might be able to cure the lady’s ailment. It’s been heard that Miss Jiang’s infertility was cured by a female doctor; perhaps she can cure the lady’s cold womb,” Imperial Doctor Zhang said on his knees.

Luo Jiner’s eyes flickered with disdain, “Could it be that the Jhiang Family, worried about Miss Jhiang tarnishing their reputation by staying unmarried too long, deliberately spread rumors that her illness was cured? So many reputable doctors couldn’t cure her, how could a doctor from a small shop possibly succeed?”

Hearing her disparaging tone, Imperial Doctor Zhang said no more and stood up to leave.

Chu Yu, embracing her, spoke firmly, “Jiner, rest assured, I refuse to believe that there’s no one under heaven who can cure your illness, I shall continue to seek renowned doctors for your treatment.”

Luo Jiner forced a weak smile, pulling up the corners of her lips: “Thank you, my Lord. Jiner doesn’t dare hope to become your wife; I only wish to serve by your side. I’m just afraid …”

“Afraid of what?” he pressed.

“I’m afraid once the new lady of the house enters, she won’t let me continue to serve you, Lord. And if she’s anything like the last lady who knew faces but not hearts, what then?” Luo Jiner said bitterly, her eyes void of any light.

“No, in my heart there’s only you, and no one else can take your place; certainly, there will be no new person,” he reassured ardently.

No sooner had Chu Yu made his promise than the former lady of the house immediately brought forth a portrait for him to choose from, also having the nanny bring a booklet to introduce these ladies of prominent families to Chu Yu.
