Chapter 66: Chapter 67: I’m Sorry for Misunderstanding You
Chu Yu held her by his side and sat down, asking with concern, “How did you suddenly get a stomachache? Did you eat something bad?”
“I, I don’t know what’s happening; my stomach suddenly hurts so much.” Luo Jiner, to make herself seem more convincing, harshly pinched herself, causing immediate pain that brought tears to her eyes.
“Wait a moment.”
Chu Yu approached Shao He, his face tense as he said, “Jiner is not feeling well in her stomach, you look at her first. As for treating her condition, we can talk about that later.”
Shao He lifted her eyes to look at him, her gaze cold as she said, “I am very busy here and cannot leave. Perhaps the Marquis should take your beauty to another hospital to see if, by chance, someone can cure her illness.”
Luo Jiner’s maneuvers and little actions were all observed by her, and she was currently not free to deal with other people’s trivia, nor did she want to waste time on insignificant people.
...
Chu Yu’s face darkened slightly, his tone firm as he said, “Doctor Shao, do me the favor of looking at Jiner’s illness.”
Shao He smirked dismissively, “The favor of the Marquis is indeed valuable!”
An uneasy look appeared on Chu Yu’s face, and upon hearing Luo Jiner urgently cry out, “Marquis, my stomach hurts, it hurts so much!”
Hearing Luo Jiner’s weak and powerless voice, Chu Yu felt a pang of heartache and glared fiercely at Shao He before turning to face Yun Qian.
“Doctor Yun, could you please check why Jiner has a stomachache?”
Yun Qian knew Chu Yu’s temperament and that offending him would do Shao He no good, so he could only get up and walk over to Luo Jiner, placing his hand on her pulse.
After a moment, he withdrew his hand with a displeased expression and said, “This girl is not ill, she appears to be pretending.”
Luo Jiner was slightly startled, then retorted, “You’re talking nonsense, I clearly…”
Yun Qian frowned, cutting her off, “You are indeed pretending, but your infertility is real.”
Luo Jiner felt that things were somewhat out of control and tugged at Chu Yu’s sleeve.
“Marquis, I really don’t feel well, let’s go back.” Luo Jiner gritted her teeth, determined to play her role to the end no matter what.
Chu Yu looked at her with an indecipherable expression, unsure whether to believe what she was saying.
“Marquis…” Luo Jiner bit her lower lip hard, her palms sweaty with nervousness.
Chu Yu contemplated for a moment, then said, “Let’s go.”
Once in the carriage, Luo Jiner, seeing the changeable expression on his face, leaned close and said plaintively, “Marquis, my sister does not want to treat me; she is holding a grudge against both the Marquis and me.”
Chu Yu remained silent, his gaze growing even more profound.
Seeing this, Luo Jiner lowered her eyes and continued, “But that’s alright, she is now a famous doctor in the Capital City and wouldn’t bother treating someone like me. However, her treatment towards you, Marquis, is truly excessive!”
“It is clear she was at fault initially, and now it seems as though the Marquis owes her an apology. Even the Old Madam lowered her status to ask her back, yet she still remains haughty, which is just too much.” Luo Jiner clenched her fists in anger.
This speech indeed infuriated Chu Yu; remembering Shao He’s attitude towards him and his grandmother, rage nearly spilled from his eyes.
Having only cured a few patients and gained a bit of fame, she dares to confront the Marquis of Pingnan’s Mansion; truly overestimating herself.
Chu Yu said coldly, “If this Marquis wanted to eliminate her, it would be as simple as crushing an ant, but…”
“But what?” Luo Jiner’s eyes flickered with a dark light, unfortunately overlooked by Chu Yu.
“But with Yan Ze, there are some troubles. Do not be fooled by his usual frivolous and refined demeanor; in reality, this man is deeply scheming,”
“Marquis, since my sister is unwilling to treat me, why not seek help from another famous doctor?” Luo Jiner asked tentatively.
“No need, this Marquis will make sure she treats you,” Chu Yu’s eyes shimmered with a ruthless light.
Luo Jiner’s lips curled into a slight arc; she would not allow Shao He and that brat back into the Marquis’s Mansion.
…
Yun Qian saw the departing figures and approached Shao He, “Do you know she was pretending to be sick?”
“Of course, how could I not see through such petty tricks?”
The original host was naive, thus often being tricked by Luo Jiner’s schemes, and her way of pretending to be sick was something she was very familiar with.
Seeing her self-satisfied smile made Yun Qian feel somewhat distressed; clearly, Shao He must have suffered much in the past.
“Aren’t you afraid of troubles she might cause later if you do not treat Luo Jiner?”
“Even if I treated her, she wouldn’t spare me anyway, so why should I bother treating her?” Shao He raised an eyebrow, her tone cold.
As the two spoke, Liang Weishuang walked over gracefully and sat down. Seeing Yun Qian barely holding back his words, he instantly understood and left. @@novelbin@@
“Has Miss Liang’s condition improved?” Shao He asked first.
Miss Liang nodded, her hands tightly clasped on the table, her cheeks flushed shyly as she said in a low voice, “Could you please help me look at my menstrual pain, Doctor Shao?”
Shao He placed her hand on her pulse, confirming that her menstrual pain was not severe or pathological, she said, “Fortunately, your condition is not very serious and will improve with proper care.”
She picked up a pen from the table, wrote down a prescription, and handed it over, “Take the medicine according to this prescription, three times a day, morning, noon, and night.”
“Thank you, and I apologize for the misunderstanding last time. I didn’t expect that my half-sister would harm me like that,” said Liang Weishuang.
What do you think?
