Chapter 123: Miss, Listen to Me

Clomp clomp!

A luxurious carriage stopped outside the Wang family's medical clinic. The guards of the Black Office guarded the intersection. Before the carriage stopped, Dongfang Liren jumped off the carriage and walked to the medical clinic.

Madam Wang, who was grabbing medicine in front of the medicine cabinets, hurriedly walked out of the room and bowed. “What brings Your Highness here?”

Dongfang Liren slowed down and assumed the posture of a calm and unhurried princess. “I came to take a look. How are Ye Jingtang's injuries?”

Madam Wang's expression was gentle as she walked with her. “Young Master Ye just came over. I've taken his pulse, and he's fine. I asked the old master to perform acupuncture. Speaking of which, Young Master Ye's fiancee is really good-looking…”

Dongfang Liren suddenly stopped in her tracks as a strange look flashed across her eyes. “His fiancee… His lover is also here?”

“Yes, she's a very beautiful girl. She looks a few years older than Young Master Ye and has an especially good temperament. She cares a lot about Young Master Ye and has been wandering in the corridor waiting for news…”

Dongfang Liren blinked. For some reason, she was a little afraid to enter.

But on second thought, she had nothing to do with Ye Jingtang. She was just here to comfort her subordinate. It was normal for her to bump into family members. Why wouldn't she dare to enter?

Dongfang Liren felt very strange and thought for a moment. “My identity is special. Don't disturb Ye Jingtang's family. Hmm… bring me there to have a look. I'm quite curious what kind of woman Ye Jingtang loves.”

Mrs. Wang was an experienced person and understood what the Prince of Jing was thinking. She didn't say much and took her to a side hall of the Wang family's mansion. From the window, they could see the corridor outside the main hall.

Dongfang Liren acted natural and silently looked out of the window. She could see the young woman in night clothes pacing back and forth in the corridor with her hands folded at her waist.

Upon closer inspection, she saw that the young woman's skin was as fair as jade, her lips were red like vermillion, and her dark eyebrows were like light smoke. Coupled with her pair of soul-stirring peach blossom eyes, anyone who looked at her would be mesmerized, especially now that she was full of worry. She was biting her lower lip lightly and constantly looking at the main hall. Perhaps even the heart of the coldest man in the world would tremble when he saw her.

As for the woman's figure, she was wearing close-fitting night clothes, so one could clearly see her slender waist and fine and straight legs, but her hip lines were very well-rounded, and her hips were wider than her shoulders. At first glance, she was the type of ultimate beauty described in Tears of a Heroine.

What was even more special was this woman's temperament. She looked like a goddess who had descended to the mortal world. She had no trace of the mortal world at all and exuded an otherworldly immortal aura.

No wonder Ye Jingtangloves her…

The moment Dongfang Liren saw this woman, she understood why Ye Jingtang couldn't forget his beloved.

Although she was very confident in her looks, she had to admit that this woman was more like the fairy partner in the fantasies of Jianghu heroes.

On the other hand, she was clearly a little more assertive and lacked a bit of gentle and delicate femininity…

Dongfang Liren stared at her for a moment, and a complicated look flashed across her eyes. She turned around and fell silent.

Madam Wang understood a woman's thoughts and smiled. “When I see this girl, I indeed feel ashamed of my inferiority. But there's no need for Your Highness to be like this. Your Highness also has breathtaking beauty, but your temperament is different from this girl's. Just like a peony and a hibiscus, each with their own good points. Moreover…”

Madam Wang looked around, stood on her tiptoes, and whispered into Dongfang Liren's ear, “Moreover, looking at this miss's face, I can tell that she's relatively delicate. She's the kind of woman who becomes passionate at a touch. With an energetic and fierce man like Young Master Ye, there's a high chance that she will wipe her tears every night…”

Dongfang Liren blinked with a strange expression. “Really? Umm… Why are you talking to me about this?”

Madam Wang smiled. “Your Highness cares about your subordinates. There's no need to worry about these daily matters of life. Why don't I talk to that girl and tell her not to be jealous…”

Dongfang Liren acutely sensed the hidden meaning in Madam Wang's words. She raised her hand and said, “There's no need for that. Hmm… You said something about Ye Jingtang's yang qi being too strong last time. I really can't tell him. Ye Jingtang is relatively… gentlemanly. You can give this miss some advice. Don't let it go on for too long. If his body really…”

Madam Wang felt that the Prince of Jing really had the demeanor of a married woman, so she smiled and nodded. “I understand. I'll go talk to that girl now.”

Dongfang Liren wanted to say something, but she felt that it was inappropriate to say anything. She turned around and said, “Send this girl away. I'll go ask about the case. Don't let her see and misunderstand.”

Yes, Your Highness.”

Buzz, buzz!

The night was silent, and the clear sound of insects echoed outside the main hall.

Luo Ning, dressed in night clothes, took off her face cloth, revealing her black hair tied behind her head. She clasped her hands at her waist and paced back and forth in the corridor like a wife who was worried about her husband's condition.

Luo Ning had heard of Imperial Physician Wang's reputation for a long time. When she came here just now, she thought that Ye Jingtang was fine. But Imperial Physician Wang took his pulse for a long time while looking solemn without saying anything. It gave people the feeling that they could basically prepare for the funeral.

The little thief isn't even twenty years old… Luo Ning's heart was in her throat. Although she felt that she had nothing to do with Ye Jingtang, she still felt cold in her heart and sweat on her forehead when she suddenly encountered this situation. It was as if her soul and body were not together.

No, he's definitely fine…

The little thief looks tough, and he looks like he will have many children and grandchildren. How can he die so easily…

With such thoughts running wild, she paced back and forth countless times. Before there was any movement in the hall, footsteps sounded from behind the corridor.

Luo Ning turned around and saw the female manager of the medical clinic walking over with a friendly expression.

“Miss, don't worry. No matter whether the illness is curable or not, the old master will just take a look and start writing prescriptions or tell people to make funeral arrangements. Since he's examining him for so long, he must be looking at other things. Young Master Ye's bone structure is extremely good. I checked it for a long time before.”

Hearing this, Luo Ning felt relieved and nodded. “Thank you for clearing my doubts, Madam Wang. How long until Jingtang comes out?”

“That's hard to say. The old master has a bad temper, so I don't dare to go in and ask. Hmm… Miss, you're Young Master Ye's confidante, right?”

Before coming here, Luo Ning had already come up with a status with Ye Jingtang. At this moment, she didn't deny it. Her face was slightly red as she said, “Yes, um… We haven't known each other for long…”

Madam Wang nodded gently and raised her hand. “I have something to tell you. It's about Young Master Ye.”

While they spoke, they walked toward the front of the mansion.

Luo Ning was a little puzzled, but no matter how powerful a person was, they still had to be timid in front of a doctor. She immediately followed Madam Wang to the medical clinic and asked, “Is there something wrong with Jingtang's body?”

Madam Wang stood beside the medicine cabinets and said softly, “Miss, you're also a martial artist. You should know that if you strengthen your body all year round, your qi and blood will be exuberant. An eighteen or nineteen-year-old man is at his most energetic. Young Master Ye's foundation is very good, but he's too diligent in martial arts. He doesn't know how to combine work and rest. When you're at your peak, you will inevitably decline. When things go to extremes, they will inevitably reverse. If this continues, problems may arise.”

Luo Ning thought for a moment and said, “1… I know that when your yang qi is too strong, you will be frustrated and angry and have sores in your mouth. You just need to take some medicine to cool the heat. Is this a big deal?”

Madam Wang said earnestly, “There are three types of poison in medicine. If you can recuperate on your own during normal days, it's naturally better than taking medicine. Moreover, it's fine for ordinary people, but it's not a small matter for experts. If the yin and yang in your body are imbalanced, your blood and qi will be chaotic. It's easy to be agitated, and it's very difficult for your heart to be calm. Young Master Ye often fights with others. Life and death are only a hair's breadth away. A slight fluctuation in his heart may be the difference between life and death. Miss, if you really care about your beloved, you have to let him relax. Don't wait for something to happen before you regret it and wipe your tears…”

Luo Ning understood what she meant and felt that the matter was indeed quite serious, but…

“Madam, are you saying that I should… help Jingtang recuperate his body and mind?”

Madam Wang nodded seriously. “The combination of a man and a woman is the path of recuperation. Overexertion will harm the body. But not doing it will also harm the body. You have to be moderate. Miss, is it inconvenient for you?”

Luo Ning's gaze was very strange. She was the wife of the cult master of the Pacifying Heaven Cult Master, so it was definitely not convenient for her to serve the little thief.

However, Madam Wang made it sound so serious. As his 'fiancee', if she resisted firmly, it would seem a little insensible. After some thought, she could only say, “Yes… Jingtang dotes on me very much, and he's a gentleman. If 1 only be with him in order to recuperate his body… I'm afraid he won't agree.”

When Madam Wang saw that Ye Jingtang had such good conditions and was still 'maintaining his chastity', she knew that he was a modest gentleman who cared about the woman's feelings.

She thought for a moment, turned around, opened a drawer in the medicine cabinets, took out a medicine box, and placed it in Luo Ning's hand. “Miss, as long as you're willing, Young Master Ye will at most hesitate beforehand. After that, he will only cherish you even more. If you find it difficult to speak, or if you think that Young Master Ye won't agree, give him this pill and pretend to know nothing. Wait until he goes to get close to you, then reluctantly yield after resisting…”

Luo Ning's gaze was strange as she asked in a low voice, “Is this an aphrodisiac?”

Madam Wang hurriedly shook her head and leaned closer to explain, “This is a proper medical clinic. How can we sell those harmful items that mess with people's minds? This is an ordinary nourishing item. It's like how hawthorn fruit stimulates people's appetite. No matter how much of an appetite someone has, they understand what can and can't be eaten. If you regret it and really don't let your lover touch you, Young Master Ye will naturally abide by the path of a gentleman and won't be rude to you. But if you agree, it will be 'dew after a long drought'. Young Master Ye might dote on you more in the future…”

Luo Ning blinked. She felt that the little thief would explode at the slightest hint. There was no need for this thing to add fuel to the fire when it came to being frivolous to the heroine.

How could she sleep with the little thief behind Xue Baijin's back just to recuperate his body?

Luo Ning pondered for a while. She still wanted Madam Wang to prescribe a normal heat-reducing medicine for Ye Jingtang to use first.

But before she could say anything, she noticed from the corner of her eye that a delicate and beautiful face was sticking out from the door of the medical clinic, looking inside and then at her.

In the corner of the clinic's door, a fluffy head also popped. It tilted its head and greeted, “Chirp-“
