567 Ask for Help (2)
Shuang Jiang quickly said, “This is Imperial Physician Gao from the palace. He’s the one who cured you. He’s living in the mansion now just so that he can give you acupuncture and change the dressing.”
Luo Tan frowned. Although Luo Tan was a little manly and lacked the delicateness of a woman, she liked beautiful things just like all the other women. Normally, Luo Tan would stop to appreciate this handsome young man in front of her. However, now that Shen Miao was in danger, she was not in the mood to do anything else. She said, “Doctor Gao, I have something to do.”
Gao Yang glanced at Luo Tan again. The girl’s skin was not as fair and delicate as the women in the capital. It was a healthy wheat color. Even though she was weak, she was like a vibrant plant standing there. This was the first time Gao Yang had seen someone so energetic after being stabbed three days ago. Thinking of the bloody wound on Luo Tan’s body on the first day, Gao Yang couldn’t help but feel awed. It was rare for an ordinary man to withstand such an injury, but Luo Tan, a girl, lasted until she was found. Her desire to live was very strong.
Gao Yang considered himself to have an eye for beauty, but he did not like a scheming and ruthless tigress like Shen Miao. He also did not like Luo Tan, who was rough, strong, and unyielding. He immediately said, “General Shen and Mrs. Shen invited me to treat you. I treated you, but if you run around and cause your wound to worsen, I can’t bear the consequence, so please don’t move around.”
Luo Tan was anxious, but she could only answer him with patience, “I have something to do. I’ll definitely explain it to Aunt and Uncle later. This has nothing to do with you, okay?”
“No.” Gao Yang said, “As an imperial physician, I have to be responsible for my patient.” He emphasized the word “imperial physician”, hoping that Luo Tan would understand that he was different from those doctors in the city.
Luo Tan did not notice his emphasis, so she said angrily, “You’re just a doctor. What right do you have to ground me?”
“Firstly, I’m an imperial physician. Secondly, before Luo Ling left, he entrusted you to me. If you really have something to do, I can run an errand for you.”
Luo Tan bit her lips. At that time, Shen Miao told her not to tell anyone about Prince Rui. Luo Tan had always been stubborn. In addition, Prince Rui’s identity was sensitive. She knew that no matter what, she could not let anyone else know, not even Shen Miao’s maids. She glared at Gao Yang.
“Miss, it’s better for you to drink the medicine first. After drinking the medicine, you’ll naturally get better soon and be able to do important things,” Gao Yang said with a smile.
Luo Tan asked Bai Lu to bring her the medicine bowl and drank it all in one go, looking quite manly. She put down the bowl and said to Gao Yang, “Are you satisfied?”
