37 Divine Doctor Ye Yi Zhe

"Wu Wu…" The sound came so suddenly that the two tense people were stunned.

The little fox who had stayed in the arm of Ye Yi Zhe jumped from his arm and then slowly walked in front of Shang Wu Xin with his injured calf, not showing any fear towards Shang Wu Xin's leaking murderous intent.

Once the little fox came to Shang Wu Xin's side, it stretched out its little white paws to reach out at Shang Wu Xin's white clothes. It's spoiled voice "Wu Wu" kept on continuously, its eyes showing full intentions of pleasing her.

Ye Yi Zhe was surprised at the little fox's action. He was not a good person, his indiscriminate action in rescuing the little fox today was because this little pup was a rare snow fox, it was a rare animal used for detoxification. He had thought that once the little fox injury was healed, he would use its blood for research. But Ye Yi Zhe was now watching the little fox trying to please the young man, displaying a clear unexpected expression on his face.Ye Yi Zhe then decided not to kill this little fox.

Shang Wu Xin kicked the fox away gently with her foot, but the booted fox immediately got up and returned back to Shang Wu Xin's foot. Its round eyes were filled with pleading as if it's been abandoned by its owner, but unfortunately, Shang Wu Xin was not it's owner.

Ye Yi Zhe looked as the opposite young man's murderous intent has calmed down, and quickly said, "Crown Prince, my name is Ye Yi Zhe. I didn't have any ill intention in getting close to Crown Prince's side. I only know Crown Prince's identity because a few days ago I saw Crown Prince's heroic attitude in the city."Ye Yi Zhe?" Shang Wu Xin ponderingly asked. Although she arrived at this world not long ago, she had looked upon the world's recent matter, so she knew a bit about this Ye Yi Zhe.

Ye Yi Zhe, was the world's number one divine doctor, there were countless people who sought medical advice from him. However this person's temperament was very unreasonable, willing to save the person no matter whether it's a nobleman or a poor citizen if happy, but unwilling if he was upset. Moreover, it's rumored that this person was a clean freak, and all the diagnosis and treatments of a person were done through a thready pulse (1), never touching the patient. But what Shang Wu Xin discovered did not stop there, because it was also known through her investigations that many shops in Shang Country were owned by this very Ye Yi Zhe. Although it was hidden, there were still traces to follow. Even if Shang Wu Xin didn't know how rich Ye Yi Zhe is, but she definitely knew that he was very wealthy. If this person was an enemy…

“This subject is here!” Ye Yi Zhe sorted out his clothes, that had become messy because of fighting. In the past, he was once disgusted with his name, but when he listened to the cute voice of this young man calling his name. Ye Yi Zhe suddenly felt that this was also a good thing.

Shang Wu Xin carefully looked at Ye Yi Zhe's eyes, the man standing in front of her could make people feel at peace, indifferent eyes without any malice, but Shang Wu Xin knew that he was too arrogant.

"Apologies, this prince has suffered a few assassinations attempts for these past few days so he had become vigilant, if I have offended divine doctor, please forgive me!" Shang Wu Xin instantly took back her murderous intent. Since she couldn't kill nor offend this man, not to mention with the man's unclear wealth and abundant skills, if she wanted to cure her poison in the future, she would need this man's help.

Ye Yi Zhe looked at the young man in front of him, who had immediately taken back his hostility. Upon listening to the assassination attempt on the young man, his heart flashed with a hint of emotion, this young man who was born in the royal lineage had experienced so many things. Ye Yi Zhe did not know why but he understood where the young man's attitude came from (2).

Shang Wu Xin looked at the man's eyes which revealed pity, if she didn't read it wrong, it was pity. Both of them were adults, what was there to be pitied about? Shang Wu Xin felt that this divine doctor was crazy, no, it's all the men that she had encountered so far who were crazy.

"It's me who is too abrupt!" Ye Yi Zhe apologized, he's not claiming as an indifferent young master or as the divine doctor, but he could see the different Ye Yi Zhe from the young man in front of him.

Shang Wu Xin was also not interested in debates between two people (3). He picked up the little fox at his feet, while ignoring its appearance and handed it over to the white-robed man in front of him, "The divine doctor's pet, this prince will leave first!" Since she could not allow the man to take her pulse now, but she definitely didn't want to offend this person.

Ye Yi Zhe took the little fox, but the fox in his arms was discontented and tried to jump out of his grasp. Ye Yi Zhe could only helplessly hold the little fox tighter. He didn't want the little fox to die soon. Ye Yi Zhe watched as the young man climbed down the mountain. The thin figure was filled with solitude, looking at her back Ye Yi Zhe had a feeling that the young man did not belong to this world.

When the young man disappeared from his sight, Ye Yi Zhe rubbed his own sour eyes (4), "I am really crazy!" If he's not crazy, then why would he care for the two-faced young man? How could he have so many feelings for the two-faced young man…

"You little fox." Ye Yi Zhe looked at the fox in his hand and remembered the young man. "From now on just follow me. If you ever become his favorite, I will give you something delicious to eat!" after saying this, the little fox cried wu wu as if to agree with him. And together they left the forest.

(1) Thread Pulse: Using a thread tied to the wrist where the pulse is to measure the person's pulse without touching them. Apparently, this method was used in the imperial harem where the male physicians cannot touch the emperor's females (empress/concubines) and so diagnosed them through this method.

(2) This sentence is to show Ye Yi Zhe understanding of Shang Wu Xin's attitude towards him as to why she fought with him earlier in the story.

(3) I took liberty in translating this to my own understanding. Google translate translated this as "Shang Wu Xin was not interested in playing Tai Chi for two people" wahahahaha!!!

(4) sour eyes: Chinese people uses this "sour" phrase often in body parts, it usually means that that body part is reddening/tired/sore. In this case, it means that you know, the feeling when you want to cry but your tears still haven't come out yet, so your eyes feel sore, tense and redden a bit? Yeah that's what it meant here ;d
