âNaturally, this old man is the number one Godly Doctor in Tianyuan City. So long as the marriage sedan would lift you to enter the Zhou family, and you and my daughter consummate the marriage, this old man will immediately cure Master Shenâs illness for you.â thereâs a coercive light in Dr. Zhouâs eyes. He speaks neither fast nor slow.
At the side, Zhou Huanu trembles in excitement even more, the way she looks at Shen Jinglin, is like how one would look at a fatty meat thatâs about to enter oneâs mouth.
Shen Jinglin slowly closes his eyes, thereâs the loneliness of a heart that has turned into cold ash, âVery well, I...â
Before he could finish his words, the chamberâs door suddenly makes a creaking sound as itâs once again pushed in.
As the door opens, a womanâs silvery sweet-sounding voice subsequently comes through.
âBig brother, I already knew that you were hiding something from me, but I really didnât expect that it would be such a silly thing.â
Hearing that voice, and seeing her silhouette enter, Shen Jinglinâs eyes snaps wide open, âYanyan!â
How can Yanyan be here?
Su Yuexiang and Shen Xiaoru also have astonished expression.
It should be known that this roomâs door has a mechanism, with each of its hinges weighing a thousand catties. Without a key, an average martial practitioner wouldnât be able to open it at all.
Just how did this Jun Muyan get down here?
Entering in, itâs precisely Muyan, Xiao Bao following closely by her side.
In front of everyoneâs flabbergasted looks, Xiao Bao aloofly claps the dust off his hands, then he holds on to Muyan.
Those iron doors are very dusty.
Xiao Bao definitely wouldnât want to make niangqinâs hand dirty!
Shen Jinglin immediately comes to his senses, âYanyan, what are you doing here? Even bringing Xiao Bao along... quickly, quickly leave!â
Muyan doesnât pay him any heed, opting to crouch in front of the unconscious Shen patriarch instead. Thereâs a complex expression on her face as she murmurs, âFather...â
âYanyan!â Shen Jinglin hurriedly raises his voice, âFather is fine, he will be cured soon. Can you leave here first?â
Shen Jinglinâs eyes are already wearing a sad and pleading expression as heâs saying this.
Muyan has a harsh look on her face, her voice cold: âLeave here and then do nothing but watch big brother take in a wife that you donât love â all for fatherâs sake, and for mine? Oh, itâs not even taking a wife, but entering her family!â
âMuyan, what are you doing?â Su Yuexiang speaks out, âYour brother has been left with no choice, isnât it all to save your father? Donât tell me you want to do nothing and watch your father die from madness?â
âSave father?â Muyan sneers, âThen aunt Su, why donât you let your own daughter go and do something to save him? Why insist to have big brother do it?â
âYou...â Su Yuexiang is just about to refute,n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Muyan interrupts her, calmly turning to look towards Dr. Zhou, âBesides, if my big brother enters the Zhou family, would my fatherâs illness really be cured?â
Dr. Zhou hears this and he replies with displeasure, furrowed brows and blazing eyes: âAnd just what are you? Saying that much, are you questioning this old manâs medical expertise?â
Muyan chuckles: âEmpty words, no guarantees. What if after my brother enters the Zhou family, and Dr. Zhou couldnât cure the illness? Then who could we turn to and account for that? I say, why donât we do it like this: Dr. Zhou treats my father first, and once heâs cured, letâs come again and discuss the matter about making my brother enter your family.â
âDo you take this old man as a fool?â Dr. Zhou says in anger, âIf this old man does cure him, whatâs to be done if you go back on your words?â
âThen Dr. Zhou, why donât you first say one thing clearly â what exactly is my fatherâs illness?â
âThatâs...â Dr. Zhou stutters all of a sudden, âItâs... itâs obviously just the common hysteria! Thereâs nothing else to say!â
