The Useless Miracle Doctor Consort Is Spoiled Rotten by the Prince!

Chapter 1124: Chapter 1120: Zi Wei, He’s Back

Sun Wu immediately left and upon his return, he saw Chu Yihan resting on the couch in the outer hall.

Sun Wu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, the monarch of a country, the ruler of the Great Cheng Dynasty, just … didn’t even have a spot on the bed.

After a busy day, there was only a single couch to sleep on.

Sigh.

It was desolate and dreary indeed.

When Su Yingxue woke up the next day and learned that Chu Yihan had spent the night in the outer hall, she almost couldn’t close her mouth from laughing so hard. She rewarded Shan Bao with a bucket of meat and made an agreement to continue to sleep with it and the little monster tonight.

Shan Bao: Roar!

With food and toys, there was no reason for it to refuse.

As for whether its master was happy or not, that was beyond the tiger’s consideration.

Lingnan.

Yue Lian was busy with her mechanical devices and business, her body always somewhat frail. Draped in an overcoat, she came out and saw Zi Wei sitting in the corridor, gazing into the distance, a trace of sorrow appearing in her eyes.

Behind her, the old steward sighed deeply, “If we had known it would be like this, why did you bother returning with Miss? He neither loves the Miss nor can he let go of that person; why torment yourself!

“Shut up!”

Yue Lian scolded him softly, “Steward, you have been with me for many years, but even you can’t speak of him like that, he is the man I love.”

She loved Zi Wei, just as Zi Wei wholeheartedly only thought of Su Yingxue.

The way Zi Wei returned that night, desolate, spitting blood, lingered in her mind and couldn’t be dispelled.

Almost a year had passed; the empress’s child was already one year old and had become the little Crown Prince.

Zi Wei’s eyes, however, remained dim, never regaining their brightness again.

Even the knife he held was like him, silent and without killing intent.

After much consideration, Yue Lian finally decided to take action.

She went up to Zi Wei and whispered, “Hubby, I’m not well, and it’s difficult to find treatment here in Lingnan. Why don’t you accompany me to Jiangnan? I heard there’s a female doctor there whose medical skills are exceptional and might be able to cure my illness.”

Zi Wei was as cold as ice, showing no emotion at all.

Yue Lian then spoke again, “Lingnan is a thousand miles away from Jiangnan, but it’s not far from Jiang Du City. The Grand Canal from Jiang Du City flows all the way down, passing through Jiangnan. Perhaps, we might even enjoy the prosperity similar to that of Jiang Du City.”

Zi Wei’s eyelids twitched, “Jiang Du City.”

He stood up while holding his knife, towering at least half a body height above Yue Lian. His voice was icy cold to the extreme, “Let’s go.”

After he spoke, he left with his knife. Although he walked steadily, Yue Lian knew he was anxious.

He wanted to go to Jiangnan, any place related even slightly to Jiang Du City; he wanted to go!

If there was any chance to glimpse something of Su Yingxue’s life, he would do it.

The torment of his longing.

Yue Lian wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes and instructed the old steward to prepare their luggage. The next day, they set off for Jiangnan.

During the journey, Zi Wei remained as cold as a machine, devoid of human emotions. He barely spoke a few words. All the words he said to Yue Lian were recorded in a booklet by her.

On the day they arrived in Jiangnan, Zi Wei spoke a total of eight words to her.

She closed the booklet contentedly. As she was getting out of the carriage, a fast horse charged towards her. About to hit her, a shadow swiftly swept by and scooped her into safety.

Then she heard a man’s deep breath close to her ear as he gently uttered the words, “Be careful.”

Two words.

Yue Lian’s heart suddenly skipped a beat.

Her tears almost spilled out.

Zi Wei quickly released her and then grabbed the frightened horse. When the horse’s owner caught up, he casually tossed the reins back. The owner followed him, repeatedly apologizing and offering him money as compensation, but Zi Wei ignored it all.

He didn’t even bother to give a single glance.

They arrived at the inn where they would stay.

The old steward saw Yue Lian standing there, lost in thought, and reminded her with concern, “Miss, we’ve arrived. It’s windy outside; why are you still standing here?”

Yue Lian’s eyes brightened with joy, “Just now, he showed concern for me.”

He actually spoke two words!

Though devoid of any emotion… it was still much better than the usual monosyllabic acknowledgments he gave!

Joy danced in Yue Lian’s heart.

The old steward saw her cheeks flush with color.

Even though he felt utterly sorry for Yue Lian and deeply pained on her behalf, seeing her health improve, he said no more.

Outside the inn, the man who startled the horse led the animal back. Standing before his own master’s carriage, he whispered, “Master, this group of people is very odd. They didn’t make a fuss when hit, and when I tried to compensate with money, he wouldn’t take it. Moreover, that man, he didn’t seem human, cold and mechanical.”

From atop the carriage, a refined and spirited male voice answered, “The Number One assassin of the Silver Moon Pavilion is naturally out of the ordinary. The woman he saved is his wife.”

“What? His wife?” The servant’s eyes widened in shock, “I didn’t notice at all. What kind of man shows no warmth to his own wife, not even a smile on his face?”

He thought the two of them didn’t look like a couple but more like strangers.

“Without marital affection, they indeed can’t be considered a true husband and wife, just a couple in name only.” The laugh from inside the carriage carried a clarity that saw through the ways of the world.

The servant couldn’t match his master’s prowess. On the territory of Jiangnan, his master knew every single person that came in a carriage with absolute clarity.

But there was one thing he knew, “Master, are we going to the clinic today?”

In the clinic, there was someone whom his master had been deeply concerned about.

Inside the carriage, Xiao Qingyu pondered for a moment before asking, “The gift I sent her yesterday, did she throw it away again?”

The servant nodded, then as if recalling something, shook his head, “She threw part of it away, but the windmill you made by hand, we didn’t find amongst the pile of discarded items, so it seems she has kept it.”

Xiao Qingyu, holding a fine sandalwood fan in his hand, tapped it lightly, “Go to the clinic and look for that windmill.”

The servant, who had calmed the startled horse, tied it back to the carriage and then drove to the clinic. Having learned some skills from his master, he scaled the wall and entered unnoticed.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

After scouting around, he returned to the carriage window and reported, “Master, the little Miss has the windmill, playing with it in her hands!”

Xiao Qingyu’s lips curved into a sly smile, revealing an air of elegance, “Does the little Miss have a smile on her face?”

“She’s playing happily and doesn’t want to let go at all!” The servant observed carefully.

Xiao Qingyu’s mood lifted, and he opened his fan with a flick, waving it in front of his azure robe, his voice filled with pleasure, “Back to the mansion!”

His servant was full of confusion, “Ah? We’re returning now? Aren’t you going to take this opportunity to interact with Doctor Rong’s daughter while she’s happy?”

Wasn’t this a rare chance?

After all, the young master had been sending gifts to Doctor Rong for quite some time, and without exception, all had been thrown away!

But this time, she had finally accepted a windmill!
