Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

“Miss Lin, you think too much. The coachman will be there with us. As the saying goes, a clean head wants no washing. The most important thing now is to save people, so can we put everything else aside for now? I won’t do anything to you,” Xia Chengzhu said righteously.

However, he could do anything he wanted after getting on the carriage.

Did a girl whose reputation was ruined have any other choice but to marry him?

Xia Chengzhu had this intention for a long time, and he could get many benefits if he could make this Miss Lin marry him.

And by then, even Old Mr. Xia should beg him.

After all, a good doctor was not that easy to find.

Zhao Chuchu looked at Xia Chengzhu with cold eyes. She thought that this kind of unworthy descendant deserved to die.

Xia Chengzhu was still urging Zhao Chuchu to hurry up and get on the carriage. At that moment, a servant of the Yuan clan pulled a snow-white horse over.

Zhao Chuchu got on her horse and rode off. “It is important to save people, so please move faster, Sir.”

Xia Chengzhu almost fainted.

He thought, “My bad. How can I forget she’s good at both riding and arrow-shooting?”

Xia Chengzhu was upset and scolded the coachman, “Quickly go after her! Do you want me to drive the carriage by myself? You stupid thing! All you know is eating!”

The coachman didn’t dare to say anything and could only hit the horse to chase Zhao Chuchu.

Xia Chengzhu initially thought he could take advantage of Zhao Chuchu in the carriage to make people misunderstand their relationship and force Zhao Chuchu to marry him.

But his intention was seen through by Zhao Chuchu, so he didn’t get anything.

Xia Chengzhu was furious. By the time the carriage caught up with Zhao Chuchu, it was already at the gate of the Xia clan.

Xia Chengzhu was very speechless.

He got down from the carriage with a gloomy face and walked over to Zhao

Chuchu, sneering. “You are quite fast riding a horse, Miss Lin.”

“Didn’t you say you were waiting for me to save people? How come you’re so slow instead?” Zhao Chuchu asked a question back.

Xia Chengzhu turned his head to look at Zhao Chuchu. “Miss Lin, didn’t your parents ever tell you that being too rigid is not good? Sometimes it’s better to learn to be flexible. Yuan Hui will have to marry someone sooner or later, so she can’t protect you all the time, but I’m different.”

“How are you different?”

“I am the eldest son of the Xia clan, so everything of the Xia clan will be mine in the future. Do you think this is something Yuan Hui can compare to? Miss Lin, the opportunity for glory and fortune does not always come. It will be difficult to meet such an opportunity again if you miss it.’

Zhao Chuchu laughed. Then she abruptly came up to Xia Chengzhu’s ear and whispered, “You are indeed different. Not many men can be impotent like you at a young age.”

“You…” Xia Chengzhu was instantly enraged and raised his hand to hit Zhao Chuchu.

Zhao Chuchu looked straight at him. “If you dare land this slap today, I guarantee you will regret it for the rest of your life. Your hidden illness is still not completely healed, so it’s not wise to offend me.”

Xia Chengzhu forced himself to suppress his anger.

Zhao Chuchu lifted the medicine box hanging on her shoulder and took the lead to walk into the Xia clan’s house.

Xia Chengzhu gritted his teeth in anger, but he didn’t dare to move against Zhao Chuchu. In the end, he could only hold back his anger and followed Zhao Chuchu inside.

Everyone in the Xia clan was on edge because of the “ghost” last night.

Zhao Chuchu heard almost everyone in the Xia clan talking about what happened last night.

And the frightened Xia Songquan did not return to his senses even now. Perhaps he was sick.

“Lead the way.” Zhao Chuchu paused in her steps and looked back at Xia

Chengzhu.

“I thought you knew where to go.” “This is your house, not mine. Cut the crap.”

“You! You’d better be polite to me.”

“Watch your attitude if you want to be cured of your hidden illness.”

Xia Chengzhu was defeated again. He really didn’t dare to offend Zhao Chuchu now. After all, he still had to beg Zhao Chuchu for a cure.

For a man, he’d rather die than be impotent.

So for the sake of a man’s dignity, he had to bear it.

“Mr. Chengzhu, is this Miss Lin?” Xia Chengzhu was about to bring Zhao

Chuchu to Xia Chengxue when the butler suddenly appeared and blocked their way.

Xia Chengzhu was unhappy. “Who else could it be if not her?”

“Mr. Chengzhu, Old Mr. Xia asked Miss Lin to go to his place to take his pulse first.” The butler seemed to be respectful, but in reality, he did not treat Xia Chengzhu as his superior.

Xia Chengzhu knew very well the position of the butler in Xia Songquan’s heart, so he held back his anger even if he was unhappy.

Otherwise, he would suffer a loss if the butler said something in front of Xia Songquan.

Zhao Chuchu was also secretly observing this butler.

She felt the butler had more influence in the Xia clan than Xia Chengzhu.

This was strange.

Xia Songquan actually treated a subordinate better than his son.

“Miss Lin, please.” While Zhao Chuchu was observing the butler, the butler was also sizing up Zhao Chuchu.

He always felt as if he had seen Zhao Chuchu somewhere before, but for some reason, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t recall it.

He thought, “Who exactly is she?”

The butler couldn’t remember, so he could only put this thought aside for now.

Zhao Chuchu was brought to the main courtyard of the Xia clan by the butler.

Seven or eight beautiful women were gathered around the bed, each holding a handkerchief to wipe their tears and pretending to be worried.

Zhao Chuchu saw Xia Songquan on the bed through the gap.

Xia Songquan was still spirited last night, but now he seemed to have aged more than ten years, lying there weakly and looking as if he would die at any moment.

Zhao Chuchu’s eyebrows were slightly raised. Other doctors would think that Xia Songquan was shocked, but it was not true.

Xia Songquan was poisoned.

And the time of poisoning should be after he was scared out of consciousness.

This was probably considered retribution in his lifetime.

“Miss Lin is here.” The butler respectfully said, “Madams, please give way for a moment so that Miss Lin can check Old Mr. Xia’s pulse.”

Those women all turned back when they heard the words.

They all frowned when they saw that Zhao Chuchu was so young, and a hint of hostility grew under their eyes.

Zhao Chuchu wanted to roll her eyes.

Xia Songquan was a treasure in their eyes, but in her eyes, he was a bastard!

Although she did not want to admit it, in terms of seniority in the Xia clan, she was Xia Songquan’s cousin.

“Butler, who is this woman?”

“She looks young, but she already knows how to climb high!”

“Heh… Young girl, you are quite resourceful. You actually thought of impersonating a doctor to seduce Old Mr. Xia.”

Those women all sounded jealous. They were in fierce competition before, but now that a younger girl had arrived, they began to ally themselves temporarily and against her unanimously.

Zhao Chuchu glanced at them and said indifferently, “You attract men with your beauty, so you won’t be loved after getting old. I can understand your worries. However, not everyone is going to be like you guys. What you can’t do doesn’t mean others can’t do it.”

“You bitch, what did you say?”

“It’s painful not to be able to have children, isn’t it?”

“What did you say…”

“Do you want me to tell you all your problems one by one in public?” Zhao

Chuchu snickered.. “Don’t regret it then!”
