Chapter 282 - A Beauty's Visit
Chapter 282 A Beauty’s Visit
“It’s easy to know why he doesn’t believe me. If he found a great doctor, then I could avoid the possible trouble when I entered the palace, right?”
Lin Mengya seemed not angry and just smiled as if she didn’t care at all.
“It’s late now. We should go back. Yunzhu, I’ll leave all of this to you. Tell that guy in Sanjue Hall in the city to inform me whenever I’m needed. You did well. That guy is very smart.”
Yunzhu lowered her head and made a bow. Lin Mengya was right. It was she who arranged that guy inside the city.
Baiji’s father was smart enough but did not know how to deal with those social affairs. He would suffer if meeting those outrageous guys.
That guy she arranged out there was a master of kung fu, smart and sophisticated. He would be useful in the future.
Out of the back yard, Lin Mengya huddled herself up in the carriage in confusion.
“Why does Long Tianyu want other doctors? Just because he doesn’t believe in my medical skills?
“Or because he has arranged for me to enter the palace as an excuse, but in fact, will arrange for other reclusive experts to treat His Majesty?”
No matter what the reason, Lin Mengya still felt slightly frustrated by his distrust.
“Fine. Long Tianyu just wants a more firm guarantee.”
“I’m a master of poison, but if it’s a new disease I don’t know, I may miss the best time to treat His Majesty.”
After picking up the four maids from Sanjue Hall, they returned to the alley at the back of Prince Yu’s Mansion very quietly.
Four of them ran back to Liuxin Courtyard, like thieves. When she put her formal clothes back on, Lin Mengya finally felt relieved.
Xiaoyu was still in Sanjue Hall and would send Xiaojin to inform them when something happened.
In a minute, dinner was served.
Sweet corn with pine nuts, ham, duck soup cooked with old ginger, and a fried dish were all served.
The four maids already ate their fill with all sorts of desserts that Aunt Bai had made for them. How inattentive they were. They had no interest in the delicious dishes on the table.
“All right, leave me alone. Just go back to rest. I’ll let you know if I need you.”
They left with excitement. Only Qinghu stayed and had dinner with her.
Lin Mengya always ate a little like a bird, and today, with a heavy heart, she ate less and after several tastes,she didn’t touch it anymore.
“What’s up? Still thinking of Long Tianyu?”
Qinghu knew her the most. She lost interest in food only because of Prince Yu.
“No. I’m on a diet. You can eat some more. I’ll leave you here and go back to rest.”
She put away her bowls and was going to stand up to go back to her room.
But at the same time, the door was opened suddenly, which surprised Qinghu and Lin Mengya.
A thin figure appeared in front of Lin Mengya.
Indignant resentment filled his handsome face and anger was burning in his eyes.
He was biting his lips tightly, as if he was being forced by someone.
“What’s the matter with you, Xiaoyu? Did someone do something to you?” Lin Mengya asked curiously.
Lin Zhongyu gradually hid his emotions and wouldn’t expose his feelings on his face. Therefore, there had to be someone overdoing it so much that he got furious.
“I’ll never leave you, Sister! Lieyun Empire! The royal family! Go to hell! I don’t care! I don’t want it at all!”
Lin Zhongyu kept ranting, which proved that he was really irritated.
Meanwhile, Lin Mengya and Qinghu exchanged glances and raised their eyebrows.
“What’s the matter with Wanyan Lie! How much effort he made to persuade me to let go of Xiaoyu! What does he want again now?”
“What’s wrong? Tell me, did Wanyan Lie do something to you?”
Lin Mengya grabbed Xiaoyu’s sleeves and took him to the chair beside her.
He was still acting angry with his cheeks raised, which was quite adorable.
“Wanyan Lie wants me to marry the princess of the Jin State because, he said, my position would be maintained if I went back with a princess from the Jin State. But the thing is, I don’t like those princesses! I don’t want to marry any one of them!”
After hearing his explanation, Lin Mengya felt a little awkward.
No matter what, Lin Zhongyu was not an adult yet and was still a fresh pupil of those affairs between a man and a woman.
In the modern world, he was not old enough to start puppy love, let alone get married.
“How impatient Wanyan Lie is!”
“Listen, you need to plan your marriage for the long term. I wish you could find a wife you love and have a happy life. Well, tell Wanyan Lie to come and see me and I’ll talk with him in person, okay?”
A joint marriage with the princess of the Jin State might be used to save Xiaoyu’s life when it’s necessary.
After all, Xin Li was casting covetous eyes at them. He wouldn’t give up easily, and probably a conspiracy was brewing.
So Xiaoyu went back to Lie Yun like a babe in the woods.
Lin Mengya knew that Wanyan Lie wanted to have a more considerate plan.
“No matter what, I won’t marry anyone!”
Lin Zhongyu reacted violently. Lin Mengya just smiled and then touched his head.
“Xiaoyu is becoming unyielding. Perhaps this is what he should be, that stubborn boy when I picked him up.”
“All right, calm down. I’m scared. Oh, you stayed in our house for a whole day. Did anyone come to see me?”
Lin Mengya tried to change the topic. Xiaoyu thought about it and shook his head.
Nowadays, Liuxin Courtyard was not a place just anyone could go. Without the admission of the doorwoman, nobody dared to barge in, even when it was an emergency.
“I saw no one come in. But two hours ago, a carriage came into Qinwu Courtyard. I don’t think it’s one of our carriages.”
“Two hours ago?” Lin Mengya thought about it and realized that it had happened after they came back from Sanjue Hall.
But who had such a high position to enter Qinwu Courtyard in a carriage?
Even Lin Mengya, Princess Yu, had to get out of the carriage at the second door of Prince Yu’s Mansion.
“One of someone’s lover? It must be her. None of the men would like to be carried in a carriage for women,” Qinghu deliberately said, as if trying to stir up trouble.
“Lover! Nonsense! Just have your dinner.”
Lin Mengya rolled her eyes at him, but inwardly, she started thinking, “At such a time, who would visit Long Tianyu?”
Inside the study, the light was flickering and a pretty couple was sitting and looking at each other.
The man looked handsome, indifferent, and sent forth an aura of deterrence without speaking. The woman looked bewitching, but between her eyebrows, it seemed to condense thick ice, which made her an iceberg queen-like beauty.
Long Tianyu looked the beauty in front of him up and down with deep disgust in his eyes.
The beauty refused to admit to being inferior and threw sharp eyes at Long Tianyu.
“Look at you. In just three years, how could you abandon yourself to vice?”
Long Tianyu spoke without giving mercy and crossed his arms as if there were trash in front of him.
“No matter how I look, it’s none of your business. Without you, Ruo Bing wouldn’t force me to dress like this. Why are you still alive? If you die, everyone can live a happy life!”
“The beauty” spoke but it sounded like a baritone in a low, cold voice. Besides, “the beauty” sat there with legs open, which was not like what a lady would do at all.
Both of them started a verbal fight when they just met each other, like a couple of enemies.
“You volunteered to come. I wanted Ruo Bing, not you!”
Long Tianyu looked angry. It was not a good time, otherwise he would draw his sword to pierce through the monster in front of him.
“Ruo Bing is busy. You only have me to cure your wound. It’s the only choice.”
“The beauty” also looked embarrassed. Although he was made up, the blue veins on his face still exposed his anger.
“Get out! I’d rather die than let a shemale treat me. Show him out, Lin Kui!”
The one who he called a shemale also snorted, and then without hesitation, was going to stand up and leave.
“Fine, I’ll prepare hell banknotes for you and celebrate with Ruo Bing when you die!”
Lin Kui pulled a long face. None of them was easy to offend.
Neither of them would submit to each other, like a pin against an awl. All right, Lin Kui, who did the legwork, had to bear them.
At the moment, he had to stop “the beauty” first, and beaming with joy all over his face, he begged.
“Lord Lu, could you stop feeling angry at our master? After all, before Ruo Bing left, she told you many times to treat Master. Would she get angry at you when she comes back and is told that you left in a huff?”
Upon hearing “Ruo Bing”, Lu Ning stopped immediately.
An unwillingness flashed across his face, and eventually, he had to sit down and look at Long Tianyu, taking no action.
“I’m not worried about whether you die or not. I just hate to see Ruo Bing being angry!”
After saying some heartless words, he kept a straight face, reached out his hands, and was about to take off Long Tianyu’s outerwear to check on his wound.
“Don’t touch me! Your face makes me feel sick. Drive him out, Lin Kui!”
Long Tianyu avoided his hands in disgust and spoke ruthlessly.
Lu Ning was totally irritated. He dressed himself like this just because it was convenient to treat Long Tianyu.
It was already annoying enough to sit in such a small carriage.
“Huh! No matter what, whether you like or not, I must treat you today!”
Then, he pounced on Long Tianyu.
