571 Ask for Help (6)
…
When Luo Tan woke up, it was already evening and Gao Yang happened to come over to bring her medicine. Luo Tan did not stand on ceremony. She took it and gulped it down. Gao Yang’s mouth twitched when he saw this. Without looking at her face, Gao Yan would have thought that Luo Tan was a man.
After drinking the medicine, Luo Tan wiped her mouth and looked at the gradually darkening sky outside the window. “I have to go back. Where is Prince Rui? I’ll go and thank him.”
Gao Yang glanced at her from the corner of his eye. “There’s no need. Prince Rui has already gone out.
Luo Tan was stunned at first, then she was overjoyed. She thought that Prince Rui must have gone to save Shen Miao. It seemed that Prince Rui was also a kind-hearted person. As she thought about it, her impression of Prince Rui improved.
Gao Yang looked at Luo Tan, who suddenly became happy, in confusion and said, “Let’s pack up and leave.”
“Alright.” Luo Tan got up from the couch happily and put on her shoes. Suddenly, she thought of something and asked, “Are you going back with me?”
“Of course.” Gao Yang said, “If not for the fact that General Shen strongly requested me to stay, I wouldn’t have wanted to. There are still many noble ladies in the palace waiting for me to treat them.”
Luo Tan looked at him sympathetically. “Doctor Gao, you’ve been working too hard all day. In that case, you’d better hurry back to the palace. It won’t be good if your money is deducted because of your absence.”
Gao Yang was speechless.
Why did Luo Tan always make it sound like everyone was qualified to be the “Imperial Physician”? Gao Yang was puzzled. He gritted his teeth and said, “There’s no need. I’ve already applied for leave from the imperial hospital.”
No matter what, in the end, Gao Yang still followed Luo Tan back to the new Shen mansion. On the way back, in order to prevent Luo Tan’s wound from hurting, Gao Yang found a carriage.
When they returned to the new Shen mansion, Shen Xin and the others had all returned. Seeing the two of them return, everyone heaved a sigh of relief. Shen Qiu asked, “Cousin Tan, Imperial Physician Gao, where did you go?” Everyone thought that Luo Tan had been kidnapped again. Shen Qiu even suspected that Gao Yang was the one who kidnapped Luo Tan.
“That’s right, Tan. You’re not fully recovered yet. Where did you go?”
Luo Tan’s expression froze. She could not tell anyone about Shen Miao and Prince Rui. She had to find an excuse to get away with it. She stammered, “I… I just…”
“I brought her out.” Gao Yang cupped his hands and said, “Miss Luo hasn’t recovered yet, but she’s been cooped up in the house all day and is in a depressed mood. It’s not good for her recovery. I took her out for a walk.”
Hearing this, Luo Xueyan’s suspicious look disappeared. However, there was still a hint of anger in her words. She said to Gao Yang, “Imperial Physician Gao, I know you are being considerate. However, if this happens again, you have to tell the servants. Tan didn’t bring a single maid with her. We thought something happened to her.”
Gao Yang said, “I didn’t think it through. My apology.”
“Forget it, forget it.” Luo Xueyan waved her hand.
Luo Tan heaved a sigh of relief. Although the way she looked at Gao Yang was still not very friendly, it was better than before. Luo Tan was grateful that Gao Yang had taken the blame for her. The Luo family was particular about repaying kindness. Luo Tan thought that she would pay Gao Yang more to even it out.
“Where is Cousin Ling?” Luo Tan craned her neck and looked around. Shen Xin, Luo Xueyan, and Shen Qiu were all here, but Luo Ling was the only one missing.
“Isn’t he with you?” Shen Xin asked with a frown.
Luo Tan shook her head.
“That’s strange.” Luo Xueyan also said, “Before I went out today, I asked Ling to keep an eye on you. When I came back, I didn’t see him. I thought you guys went out together. Did you only go out with Imperial Physician Gao?”
Luo Tan nodded.
“Did Cousin Ling go out to buy something?” Shen Qiu asked, “It’s getting late. He should be back soon.”
In order to exchange information, members of the Shen family would return home in the evening to tell each other the results of the search. Even if Luo Ling went out to look for someone, he should be back by now.
“Could it be that he found her?” Luo Tan’s heart skipped a beat. “Could it be that Brother Ling found Cousin Miao, so he’s back late?”
Shen Qiu and Luo Xueyan were stunned for a moment before looking happy. “If only that was the case.”
At this moment, a flustered voice suddenly came from outside. “Not good, not good!”
Everyone looked over and saw that the person who came was Luo Ling’s subordinate. He was covered in blood and said, “Not good, something happened to Young Master Ling!”
