âLittle girl, you canât take this notice.â
An old lady looked at her with pity. A fine young lady was going to lose her life for no reason.
Xia Muqing noticed that their expressions were surprisingly consistent and her interest was piqued. She asked, âHas no one ever removed this notice?â
Everyoneâs expressions had already turned to pity.
From their voices, Xia Muqing finally understood the perverse terms of King Zhennanâs residence.
She felt that he was worthy of being the famous God of War. However, she wasnât worried at all.
Before long, a group of soldiers arrived with murderous intent. One could tell that they had been to the battlefield before.
The leader looked at Xia Muqing and frowned, but he didnât say a word.
He asked formally, âAre you the person who took the notice?â
Xia Muqing nodded.
That man gestured for her to enter.
At King Zhennanâs manor.
It could be a gut feeling, but the stone lions at the entrance of King Zhennanâs residence carried a murderous aura.
They entered the residence.
Xia Muqing was brought to a hall. The decor was simple and luxurious, revealing the distinguished status of the master.
After waiting for a while, a man in a wheelchair was pushed in.
Even if he could no longer walk, he still carried an imposing aura.
The moment he entered, the entire atmosphere froze. All the soldiers took a step back and bowed.
Their actions were uniformed. This was the respect that was carved into their bones they had for the man.
Xia Muqing looked up and her expression stiffened when she saw the familiar mask.
Wasnât he the man whom she had stolen from when she first came to this world?
She was still wearing paint and makeup at that time, so he shouldnât recognize her now.
With that in mind, she felt relieved.
Ye Qingxuan looked at Xia Muqing and suddenly sneered coldly.
It was as if a hunter had finally discovered a prey that had escaped.
An aloof voice sounded. âAre you the physician who wants to treat me?ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
He emphasized the word âphysicianâ.
Xia Muqing felt that something wasnât right. She smiled and said, âYes, but I still need to prepare some items.â
Ye Qingxuan glanced askew at her and asked, âWhat do you need?â
Xia Muqing quickly rattled off a list of items. After she finished, she didnât even know what she had said.
Ye Qingxuan nodded along and instructed his men to prepare.
His eyes were filled with a glint that looked as though a cat was chasing a mouse.
Of course, Xia Muqing wasnât really preparing to treat him. This man had evidently recognized her at first glance.
She took advantage of the fact that the surrounding soldiers had been transferred away and she slowly retreated.
She had just reached the door.
Ye Qingxuan opened his eyes slowly and drawled, âWhere are you going, Physician Xia?â
Xia Muqing quickly replied, âIâll go get my medical box. I think I left it at home.â
She let out a laugh and ran out quickly.
She had just praised herself when she was surrounded by soldiers, before she even reached the entrance of the residence.
She cursed silently at the number of soldiers in the manor.
The sound of a wheelchair rolling was heard and Xia Muqing didnât dare to turn around.
Ye Qingxuan smiled and said, âPhysician Xia, just tell me what you need. Why do you have to trouble yourself?â
The more polite he was, the more uneasy Xia Muqing felt.
Swallowing hard, she could only nod her head in resignation.
Before long, the men had gathered the items that Xia Muqing had requested.
âCome here.â
Ye Qingxuanâs command made Xia Muqing feel as if she was sending herself to death.
Swallowing hard, she said, âThereâs no need.â
He raised his eyebrows and said, âPhysician Xia, arenât you going to treat me? But how do you treat me if you donât come to me?â
He added, âOr do you want to say something else to me, Miss Xia?â
Xia Muqing quickly said, âLetâs start the treatment.â
Knowing that she absolutely couldnât bring up that matter, she marched to Ye Qingxuan with a stiff expression and took his pulse.
Ye Qingxuan snorted softly and didnât reject her.
However, the coldness in his eyes made Xia Muqing subconsciously tense up.
