Chapter 17

“How do you know she can’t be trusted?” Ye Ningxuan asked.

Zhan Hanjue said grimly, “Believe it or not.”

Ye Ningxuan pursed her lips. “I didn’t say I didn’t believe you.”

What a big temper!

However, she quickly thought about it and realized that they were the only ones who survived the car accident.

Both cars had exploded, but she lay unconscious outside them. Zhan Hanjue was fine.

So who carried her out of the car to avoid the explosion?’

Unfortunately, she couldn’t remember any of those things.

The accident hadn’t only ruined her appearance, but also made her forget a lot of things. She had only slowly remembered some of her childhood, but she had no recollection of anything that had happened during the accident.

However, she was only six years old at the time. It was normal for her to be frightened and not remember.

But Zhan Hanjue was already 15 years old. He should still remember what happened back then!

Thinking of a possibility, she probed, “Actually, you also know that you and I were the only two people who survived the car accident! How much do you remember about that car accident?”

Zhan Hanjue looked up.

He looked no different from a normal person if one didn’t look closely at his dilated pupils. Almost everyone would be fooled by his appearance and think he was normal.

“Did you marry me because you want to know the truth about the car accident all those years ago?” Zhan Hanjue asked grimly.

Ye Ningxuan trembled. He guessed it right.

“Of course not. I didn’t know at the time that you were also a survivor of a car accident. I was young at the time and couldn’t remember what had happened. It was only when Aunt Lin mentioned it that I found out that you were in the other car. Aunt Lin said that when they rescued me, the police realized that I was farther away from the car so that I wasn’t affected by the explosion.”

“You don’t think I saved you, do you?” Zhan Hanjue snorted.

The thought had indeed crossed his mind, but now that he looked so cold and ruthless, it was dispelled.

“It’s a pity that it’s not the case. I was thinking that if you saved me, we would really be a match made in heaven. It’s fate.” Ye Ningxuan shook her head regretfully.

Actually, she was overjoyed. Fortunately, he wasn’t her savior.

Otherwise, she would be too embarrassed to keep lying to him!

“You climbed out of the car. When I woke up, I saw a big bug trying to get out. By the time I got out, you’d gone a long way,” said Zhan Hanjue.

Ye Ningxuan was speechless.

He was a bug. His entire family were bugs.

“I see. Thank you for telling me the truth.” Ye Ningxuan smiled and thanked him.

“You’re welcome. Instead of reminiscing about the past, why don’t you find out Bai Zhi’s whereabouts as soon as possible? I want to find her as soon as possible,” Zhan Hanjue said coldly.

Ye Ningxuan thought, “You’ve been blind for more than ten years. Why are you suddenly so anxious?”

However, she still said, “I’ll naturally try my best to do what I promised you. I called my hometown yesterday and there’s already some news. We can set off to find Bai Zhi in two days.”

“Set off? To find Bai Zhi? You mean we’re going over instead of inviting her over?” Zhan Hanjue frowned.

Ye Ningxuan sneered. “Mr. Zhan, who do you think Bai Zhi is? If she can be easily invited, she wouldn’t be the Miracle Doctor Bai Zhi.”

“You don’t want to go?” Ye Ningxuan raised her eyebrows. “If you think it’s troublesome, then forget it. I also think it’s troublesome.”

Zhan Hanjue lowered his voice. “I am busy. I need some time to prepare.”

“OK, I’m not in a hurry anyway.” Ye Ningxuan shrugged.

“Go out,” Zhan Hanjue ordered.

Ye Ningxuan stood up to leave.

That night, Zhan Hanjue stayed out all night again, working in his study.

Actually, Zhan Hanjue had been like this for the past few days, and Ye Ningxuan was already used to it.

It was good that he wasn’t coming back at night. She could occupy such a comfortable bed alone.

But the news had somehow reached the old lady.

The next morning, Mrs. Chen came to look for Ye Ningxuan, saying that the old lady was looking for her.

Ye Ningxuan was puzzled. Didn’t she look for her yesterday? Why did she call her over again today?

Was she going to give her jewelry again?

“I heard that Zhan Hanjue slept in the study again last night,” said Old Madam Zhan as soon as she spoke.

So she wasn’t going to give her a gift, but to denounce her.

She immediately put on an aggrieved look. She lowered her head slightly and said in a choked voice, “Grandma, I know you must blame me for not doing my duty as a wife. But regarding this matter… I’m really aggrieved. It’s not like you don’t know Zhan Hanjue’s personality. He won’t stay just because I want him to.”

“I’m not blaming you.” Mrs. Zhan softened and quickly took her hand to comfort her. “I know you’re aggrieved. I’m just asking. You don’t have to cry.”

“Grandma, I know you don’t blame me. You’re the best. It’s my blessing to be able to come out of that ruthless Ye family and marry into a family like the Zhan family. Unfortunately, I’m unlucky and can’t please Zhan Hanjue. I’m useless and I’ve disappointed Grandma.”

“It’s all his fault for beng blind. If he had regained his sight, how could he not be tempted when he saw a beauty like you?” Old Madam Zhan said regretfully.

Ye Ningxuan comforted her, “Grandma, you don’t have to be sad. I’m also actively looking for a miracle doctor. I hope that Zhan Hanjue will regain his sight soon and that we can live a normal life.”

“Actually, there’s no need to wait until you guys find the divine doctor. He can only lead a normal life if he sees you. I have a method here that you can try.” Old Madam Zhan smiled mysteriously.

Ye Ningxuan was stunned. Could this old lady mean that sort of thing?

She was already so old, so why was she…?

“Give this to Zhan Hanjue to drink and make sure he stays in your room.”

Old Madam Zhan shoved a small porcelain bottle at her.

Ye Ningxuan said awkwardly, “Grandma, that’s not good! What if it’s harmful to the body…”

“Zhan Hanjue is my biological grandson. Why would I harm him? Don’t worry, this is harmless. The old Chinese physician who treats me gave this to me. In the past, those concubines in the palace often used it. It’s just for fun. It can’t be harmful to the body.”

Ye Ningxuan smiled awkwardly.

No wonder the former emperors died early. They must have been killed by this thing.

Since she said so, she was too embarrassed to refuse.

Otherwise, wouldn’t she expose her intentions?

She took the small bottle and left. As soon as she went out, she opened it and smelled it. Lascivious sheep stalks, leek seeds, dried ginger, mussels, deer antler, and ginseng were all inside. They were indeed all aphrodisiac items. That old Chinese doctor wasn’t just for show.

However, if Zhan Hanjue really drank so much of this, his nose would probably bleed.

However, if she didn’t use it on him, it would be difficult to explain to Old Madam Zhan.

Ye Ningxuan was extremely conflicted.
