“Ah?”
Upon hearing Lin Zhongyu’s inquiry, Mu Jixue was taken aback at first, and immediately a complex mix of emotions surged in her heart.
I don’t know who that is.
Such words were on the tip of Mu Jixue’s tongue, and she instinctively wanted to blurt them out at once.
However, her inherent “honesty” as the protagonist made it hard for her to feign ignorance.
Unconsciously, Mu Jixue bit her lip, her mind in turmoil.
Fortunately, at this moment, the little medical fairy in charge of guarding the Xianmeng ward appeared.
Seeing that Lin Zhongyu had already awakened, she came forward to conduct a brief examination and inquiry.
This allowed Mu Jixue to breathe a sigh of relief.
“Well, you’re recovering nicely, with no lingering aftereffects. You can be discharged anytime,” the little medicine fairy said with a smile to Lin Zhongyu.
Through the conversation with her, Lin Zhongyu realized she was in the Xianmeng ward.
This made Lin Zhongyu feel a bit startled.
No wonder she had recovered so quickly.
The medicines casually dispensed by Xianmeng would be of explosive grade in the city of Cangzhou.
But logically, someone of Lin Zhongyu’s status shouldn’t have the privilege of receiving treatment from Xianmeng.
So she immediately thought of Yun Zhonghe.
Even without knowing the details, she could guess that it must have been because of Yun Zhonghe’s influence that Xianmeng had intervened to treat her.
After finishing the examination, the little medical fairy instructed Lin Zhongyu that it was fine to leave a bit later, with an extremely pleasant attitude.
In the impression of the people in Cangzhou, the members of Xianmeng were always perceived as being high and mighty.
They were not known for being easy to talk to.
The female manager was a typical example, albeit a bit extreme.
In fact, the little medical fairy was simply mindful of the fact that “this patient was arranged by the leader.”
That was why she was so polite.
Undoubtedly, in Cangzhou, the only family with such influence to command respect from Xianmeng was the Yun family.
After the little medical fairy left, the atmosphere in the ward returned to its quiet state.
Mu Jixue secretly observed Lin Zhongyu’s expression.
The two had grown up together since childhood, and she could tell at a glance that Lin Zhongyu had already figured out the general situation.
There was no way to gloss over it.
“……”
“Don’t worry. Didn’t the doctor say I’m completely fine now?”
Lin Zhongyu looked at Mu Jixue’s pretty face, which was full of grievance, and affectionately pinched her cheek, as if to say, “I’ve already said so much. There’s no need to blame yourself anymore.”
But she had no idea that what Mu Jixue cared about was not that.
Mu Jixue rubbed her cheek that had just been pinched.
She pouted her little mouth, hesitated for a moment, and then looked up and said, “Xiao Yu, the person who helped you is the young master of the Yun family. It was he who asked the leader of Xianmeng to step in and solve your problem. The female manager and the person who ambushed you have been expelled from Xianmeng.”
Lin Zhongyu was slightly stunned, and then felt a bit dazed.
She knew it was Yun Zhonghe who had helped her, but she didn’t expect him to go to such lengths, venting her anger on her behalf.
No one had ever stood up for her so much since she was a child.
Lin Zhongyu was actually a strong-willed person, always wanting to handle everything on her own.
But she was still a young girl, and when someone really went to great lengths to stand up for her, she couldn’t help but be moved.
Moreover, it was Yun Zhonghe who had previously forced the poison out of her and activated her Golden Emperor Holy Eyes …………….. This feeling……It’s hard to describe, there’s just a kind of……………very comfortable feeling?
“Xiao Yu? Xiao Yu!”
“Ah? Hmm……………… What’s wrong with Xue’er?”
Mu Jixue quickly woke Lin Zhongyu up.
She felt that if she didn’t hold on to her little buddy, her mind would drift off to who knows where.
Her heart was in such a hurry.
But she didn’t know how to bring it up, feeling particularly awkward.
Yet if she didn’t say it, she would feel suffocated.
In the end, she couldn’t bear it any longer and reluctantly asked, “Xiao Yu, do you really care about that young master of the Yun family?”
“It’s impossible to say I don’t care,” Lin Zhongyu said, with a thoughtful expression.
“After all, I’ve received so much kindness from him, and I haven’t even thanked him yet.”
“……”
“Xue’er, you’re acting very strangely today. Is something wrong?”
Lin Zhongyu felt that Mu Jixue was particularly odd today.
“Really, it’s nothing. It’s getting late. Let’s hurry back to the Lin residence. It’s not quite appropriate to stay in Xianmeng for too long.”
Although Lin Zhongyu felt that Mu Jixue must be hiding something, she also agreed that it wasn’t good to stay in Xianmeng for too long, and she had already fully recovered.
So Lin Zhongyu had to suppress her inner confusion for the time being and started tidying up with Mu Jixue to go back.
Mu Jixue, who had something on her mind but couldn’t bring herself to say it, was left feeling despondent and sad.
Boohoo, it hurts so much!
My Xiao Yu.
Lin Zhongyu and Mu Jixue left Xianmeng, but they didn’t know that a pair of eyes had been secretly observing them the whole time.
“Alas, I had no chance to get to know Huang Ao tian. I always feel that she has a strong hostility towards me.”
Yun Zhonghe stood in front of a window and couldn’t help but sigh as he watched the protagonist and the heroine walk away.
He had wanted to find an opportunity to drop by the ward and take the chance to get acquainted with Huang Ao tian, but his intuition told him it would be better not to intervene just yet.
Unable to find an opportunity, Yun Zhonghe sighed helplessly once again.
“Young master, could it be that your target is that Mu Jixue?”
At that moment, Tao Jiu’er appeared out of nowhere, her small, pointed chin resting on Yun Zhonghe’s shoulder.
Her sudden appearance startled Yun Zhonghe quite a bit, making his heart race and causing him to cover his ears and step back repeatedly.
“Why are you so flustered? Did I step on your tail?”
Tao Jiu’er asked, hands on her hips, with a displeased expression.
“No, of course not. You startled me by breathing in my ear.”
“Humph”
Tao Jiuer snorted, then also leaned against the window, propping her chin up with one hand, and looked in the direction that Yun Zhonghe had just been looking at:
“Mu Jixue, the new genius from the Lin family, is indeed a very beautiful beauty. In my life so far, I have never seen a girl with such charm. If it were a girl like her, the master and madam would probably be willing to accept her as a daughter-in-law.”
While speaking, Tao Jiuer also glanced at Yun Zhonghe’s reaction, and her words had a slightly sour tone.
However, after hearing this, Yun Zhonghe was taken aback, and he shivered all over with goosebumps.
Sis, this joke is not funny.
I just want to be a good brother to Huang Ao tian.
“Sis Jiuer, there’s no need. I don’t have such thoughts about her.”
“Huh?” Tao Jiuer was stunned for a moment, “You don’t like her? You’ve wanted a woman for a long time, haven’t you.”
Due to the family’s cultivation technique, the direct descendants of the Yun family cannot easily break their original yang, which is why Yun Zhonghe’s mother was so strict with him regarding women, as it is related to the future development of the Yun family.
However, if it were a wife, there would be no need to worry about the restrictions of the cultivation technique.
In the end, it’s about finding a partner for long-term dual cultivation, not just a one-night stand.
Tao Jiuer stared at Yun Zhonghe with an appraising look:
“She’s very beautiful.”
“It’s just that she’s good-looking. Is that a big deal?”
Yun Zhonghe shrugged indifferently, and at the same time, he couldn’t help but inwardly complain that Huang Ao tian really seemed to outshine all the female characters wherever she went.
Even Tao Jiuer was conquered by her charm. She truly was the queen of beauty.
Tao Jiuer: “Do you think she’s not beautiful?”
Yun Zhonghe: “I guess she’s just okay.”
“Well, then, what type do you like?”
Tao Jiuer spoke hesitantly and fidgeted, her fingers involuntarily twirling her peach-colored hair tips.
