Medical Princess

Chapter 369 Chu Liuyue Noticed Qin Wanru for the First Time

Since he decided to confess, everything would become much easier later.

The doctor told everything to them. There was someone who asked him to spray himself with safflower powder when he went to Qin’s Mansion. However, the unknown person’s master wasn’t Madam Di. The person only told him to see Madam Di when Nanny Zhou from Qin’s Mansion came and did everything according to Nanny Zhou’s words.

He once treated Madam Di so he was familiar with Nanny Zhou. When he came here, he found that Madam Di looked weak but he couldn’t find any evidence to prove that she was poisoned. However, since Nanny Zhou mentioned, he then gave her a pill to clear toxin and committed that she was poisoned.

“Who?” Qin Huaiyong asked while he looked livid.

“I don’t know. He, he looked quite normal and just asked me for a favor. Then he gave me a hundred taels of silver!” Sweating, the doctor hurriedly answered.

He was completely seduced by money. However, now he regretted but too late. Had he known what would become of him, he would not have accepted the money.

Suddenly a servant came in and whispered to Qin Huaiyong. Qin Huaiyong nodded and then his indifferent gaze fell on Qin Yuru.

The servant told him the result of the interrogation against those old maids. Although their words were slightly different, the main idea was the same. Moreover, the final result really disappointed Qin Huaiyong.

Madam Di did look like acting when hanging herself. However, she almost got killed when Qin Yuru pulled her so hard!

“Yuru, tell me what would have become of your mother?” said Qin Huaiyong coldly.

Qin Yuru knelt on the floor and trembled. Her hands trembled so hard that she even felt they didn’t belong to her! She almost lied on Madam Di. Then she raised her face with her tears ceaselessly dropping. “Father, father…”

She felt she was falling into an icebox!

“Ah… ah… ah…” A voice came up, which sounded painful but thrilling. Madam Di suddenly woke up and reached out to half hold Qin Yuru difficultly. She glared fiercely at Qin Huaiyong and then Qin Wanru. It seemed obvious that she wanted to protect Qin Yuru.

“Wanru, take your mother home!” Qin Huaiyong waved his hand and said.

“Father!” This time Qin Wanru didn’t want to follow his order. She suddenly knelt down. Her eyes looked cold and her hands held together very hard. She never disobeyed Qin Huaiyong in her last life and she did treat him as her father! Even though she lived in squalor, she never blamed Qin Huaiyong.

But this time, the mistake would not repeat!

She would discard the so-called family immediately if only she treated everyone as her families. She didn’t need this kind of love which people used to comfort her when they needed her and to make her a bargaining chip when they didn’t need her!

“Father, please send my mother and me back to our hometown!” A trace of firmness appeared in her tearful and watery dark eyes.

A few words silenced everyone. They all held their breath.

Suddenly, sounds like “ah, ah” made by Madam Di came up again. She sounded anxious and seemed to say something but she could say nothing.

“YURU, APOLOGIZE TO WANRU!” Qin Huaiyong’s order stopped the weird sound.

“Father!” Qin Yuru looked at Qin Huaiyong entreatingly with her face tear-stained. She was the eldest daughter in Qin’s Mansion and she had always been arrogant. If she apologized to Qin Wanru, then how could she still meet others? WHAT A SHAME!

“HURRY UP!” shouted Qin Huaiyong severely.

Qin Yuru suddenly trembled with fear. She turned around, looked at Qin Wanru and directly lowered her head. “Second sister, I, I misunderstood you… but I really don’t know…”

Feeling embarrassed and angry, she burst out crying.

“Big Sister! You should not apologize to me but to my mother! Had she stayed in this room today, not only she would have had an accident but also the unborn baby!”

Qin Wanru answered sharply. Staring at the floor, she didn’t raise her head to see Qin Yuru. It seemed that she was talking to Qin Yuru but it also seemed that she was just talking to herself.

“Father, father…” Qin Yuru cried and turned to Qin Huaiyong pleadingly.

“Hurry up!” Qin Huaiyong felt no sympathy for her but only waved his hand. Qin Yuru only saw coldness and indifference in his eyes without any signs of pity.

Madam Di reached out and held Qin Yuru tightly, seeming that she didn’t want Qin Yuru to do that. However, Nanny Zhou had to grab her hand and not let her catch Qin Yuru.

Qin Yuru lurched to her feet and strode toward the door. When she reached the entrance, she suddenly turned around, looked at Madam Di with her tears falling on her face and cried sadly, “Mother!”

Then she ran outside.

Sitting on a stone bench calmly, Shui Ruolan saw Qin Yuru running out in a messy way and she then looked at Qin Yuru with her calm eyes.

“Madam Shui, I apologize for my mistake! I shouldn’t misunderstand you!” Qin Yuru stopped in front of Shui Ruolan and suddenly knelt down with her tears ceaselessly falling.

“First Lady, please stand up. I just don’t want to see this kind of things again!” Shui Ruolan lowered her head, looked at Qin Yuru and said after a brief silence.

Qionghua came and held Qin Yuru.

Qin Yuru turned around only to find out Qin Huaiyong standing indifferently while Qin Wanru standing beside him. Then she covered her face with her sleeve and rushed out while crying loudly.

Standing in the porch, Qin Wanru saw Qin Yuru cry and run away. Then she walked to Shui Ruolan. She was thin. Although she looked very young, her beautiful watery eyes in which there was a trace of indifference added a sense of unidentified coldness to her perfect and pretty face.

Her firmness made people feel pity for her.

Her side figure made people feel that she was lonely even if she looked strong. Her large dress was blown up by the wind in the courtyard, which presented her slender waist and made her look thin and weak.

Chu Liuyue stood under the tree outside the courtyard and his gaze fell on Qin Wanru. He frowned and thought that this girl was special.

He came here with Qin Huaiyong but it was improper for him to walk into the courtyard so he just stood under the tree outside. Although he didn’t know the details, he almost knew what happened inside. He saw Qin Yuru cry and leave embarrassingly and found Qin Huaiyong standing in the porch with a livid face.

He also saw Shui Ruolan sitting in the yard, lowering her head and saying nothing. However, these faces gradually disappeared in his mind but there was only a girl whose figure looked lonely in the wind left. Her large dress made her slender body look thinner. However, there was only a trace of indifference left on her beautiful face which should be charming and energetic.

She was sad but she didn’t show others her sorrow and weakness. However, her face on which there was no tear made others sense her restlessness. Even though she looked really pretty and charming, she looked unapproachable and impersonal without any expression on her face!

It seemed that she had never got involved in the disturbance!

Even Qin Huaiyong showed his anger on his face but it seemed that she had nothing to do with these! Yes, everyone seemed to get involved into this, except her! She showed her indifference but actually she just tried her best to hide her sorrow and sadness.

At this moment, Chu Liuyue was deeply impressed by this girl and remembered her for the first time!

She was young and he should not have noticed her but she made it! She made him notice her! It was the first time that he had realized that she was so beautiful that he failed to notice the scenery! She was even comparable to Shao Yanru!

He preferred Shao Yanru and tried his best to marry her not only because she was charming and beautiful but also because she got the support from Duke Xing’s Mansion. Because of these, Chu Liuyue had decided Shao Yanru was the right one for him very soon.

However, as his eyes darkened, he suddenly hesitated. “She is a daughter of a normal General’s Mansion and what’s more, she is a girl picked up by the mansion. She doesn’t deserve the position of First Madam but it might be available to make her my concubine. After all, Qin Huaiyong might be useful in the future…”

“Let’s go home, mother,” said Qin Wanru softly when she came to Shui Ruolan.

“Fine.” Shui Ruolan nodded and tried to stand up. However, as she had sat for a long time, she stumbled while Qin Wanru quickly reached out and caught her.

“Are you alright, mother?”

“I am fine. Let’s go,” answered Shui Ruolan gently.

Then they walked outwards. When they walked to the door, Qin Wanru suddenly felt someone was staring at her. She raised her head and found out Chu Liuyue was looking at her thoughtfully. She slightly bowed sideways and then left while holding Shui Ruolan.

Then there was Chu Liuyue’s thoughtful gaze left behind her.

Qin Huaiyong then checked his clothes and tried to calm down his anger. After asking the latter doctor to leave, he also left the courtyard slowly, then bowed and said to Chu Liuyue politely, “Sorry to keep you waiting, Prince Yue!”

“It is okay. It hasn’t been too long!” Chu Liuyue was to discuss the defence of the city in the following days. The public security would be a little bit rough every time when Lunar New Year was around the corner. Thus accidents might occur at that time. Today, the emperor ordered Chu Liuyue and Qin Huaiyong to deal with this so that was why Chu Liuyue would come to Qin’s Mansion.

When they just entered the mansion, they immediately knew what happened to Madam Di. Qin Huaiyong was about to bring Chu Liuyue to his study room while Chu Liuyue told him not to be so troubled and asked him to hurry to deal with the incident. Then he followed Qin Huaiyong leisurely. The man who guarded Chuihua Gate saw Chu Liuyue wear splendid gowns and found that Qin Huaiyong allowed him to follow. Thus the servant dared not stop him.

“Sorry for letting you see this mess. This way, Prince Yue!” Qin Huaiyong reached out, made way for him and answered.

Chu Liuyue nodded and turned around. While he was walking, he asked leisurely, “Is that girl your second daughter?”

“Yes!” Qin Huaiyong nodded.

“She looks quite pretty. How old is she?”

“She is only eleven!” Not knowing Prince Yue’s intention, Qin Huaiyong answered carefully while his eyelid twitched.

“She is a rare beauty! Just like a rare pearl!” Chu Liuyue praised.

Qin Huaiyong didn’t understand him so he smiled and answered resignedly, “She is just a kid and is immature. Her mother and she got a little bit angry because of the incident!”

“Then how would you deal with the Madam and lady who caused the trouble?” Chu Liuyue quickly switched the topic, which seemed that he didn’t intend to know more about Qin Wanru but the incident!
