The Miracle Doctor’s Two-Faced Toddler

508 Heaven-Defying Luck

This was the first time Yu Wan heard Helian Beiming mention his son. From his eyes, Yu Wan saw an unconcealable love. He knew that he was not his biological son, but he still doted on him so much.

Yu Wan thought of Xiao Zhenting, but Helian Beiming’s situation was very different from Xiao Zhenting’s. Shangguan Yan had never betrayed Xiao Zhenting, and Xiao Zhenting had accepted this woman and her child. The relationship between them had accumulated bit by bit over the long years, from nothing to something. However, Helian Beiming was cuckold in his marriage. Under his embarrassment and anger, could he still dote on this “bastard” so much?

Could it be that Madam Tan had actually never done anything wrong? Was this child Helian Beiming’s flesh and blood? If that was really the case, then did Helian Beiming know or not?

His fatherly love for Helian Sheng was engraved in his bones. Even if he was deceived, he could not change his original intention. Or did he know the truth at all and knew that he was his biological son?

When the Old Madam came to Helian Beiming’s courtyard again, Helian Beiming had already obediently eaten half a bowl of millet porridge under Yu Wan’s “oppression”. His appetite was actually not very good, but Yu Wan said that she had cooked noodles. Helian Beiming was so frightened that he hurriedly asked if there was anything else to eat in the kitchen. Yu Wan said that the chef cooked millet porridge for himself, and Helian Beiming quickly said that he wanted to eat porridge too!

Helian Beiming was halfway through his porridge when he saw a figure at the door. It was the Old Madam. His mother must be worried sick after he was unconscious for so long. He was unfilial to make his mother worry.

Helian Beiming sighed guiltily. “These few days, Mother…”

“You’re fine?” The Old Madam interrupted him. When she saw that he was eating porridge, she immediately believed that he was really fine. She had worried for nothing. The Old Madam moved her foot that was one step in the room back. “Then I’ll leave first. I’m going to look for my great-grandchildren!”

Helian Beiming was stunned. “…”

Am-am I still your biological son?

Helian Beiming did not wake up for long. After a while, he felt weak and fell asleep. His pulse had improved greatly, but his vitality was severely damaged and he needed to recuperate carefully.

Yu Wan called Helian Beiming’s steward over. “Although my uncle has passed the critical period, he needs to recuperate. Try not to let him be agitated in the short term. Don’t mention the assassin and the Second Old Master to my uncle for the time being.”

Others might not be able to guess that the assassin was Yan Jiuchao, but how could Yu Gang not know? He had seen Yan Jiuchao take the dagger away with his own eyes. In the end, that dagger was inserted into the Second Old Master’s stomach. Even a fool could understand what was going on.

Yu Wan did not explain to Yu Gang why Yan Jiuchao had assassinated the Second Old Master. She believed that she did not need to explain. Yu Gang would still understand this logic.

Yu Gang did not expose Yan Jiuchao, which meant that he had already thought through that the Second Old Master was the culprit who assassinated Helian Beiming. However, it was easy for Yu Gang to think about it, but not for Helian Beiming.

That was his biological second uncle. Could he accept this blow? It would be fine if the Second Old Master had only done this evil thing, but what if it was more than that? Could the matter of Madam Tan and Helian Sheng and the Old Madam’s youngest son be related to the Second Old Master?

What she could think of, she believed that Yu Gang had also thought of it. However, there was no evidence now, and everything was just a guess.

Yu Gang nodded. “I understand. I won’t let it slip.”

Yu Wan looked at the sleeping Helian Beiming and said, “It’s not like we have to hide it from him forever. It won’t be too late to tell him when the wound recovers and it doesn’t bleed when he’s agitated.”

“Understand,” Yu Gang agreed.

Yu Wan stood up. “I’ll go back to Wutong Courtyard first. Call me if there’s anything.”

“Young Madam!” Yu Gang called out to Yu Wan.

Yu Wan turned to look at him. “What’s wrong?”

Yu Gang’s eyes moved. “Thank-thank you.” Thank you for protecting the general. Yu Gang will also protect you in the future.

Yu Wan returned to Wutong Courtyard. The three little fellows had gone to Old Madam’s room. Yan Jiuchao was happy to have some quiet time. He was sitting alone by the window looking at the scenery.

Yu Wan walked over. “Uncle is awake.”

“Mhm,” Yan Jiuchao replied casually, as if he didn’t care about Helian Beiming’s life or death. She didn’t know who was the guy who stabbed the Second Old Master for Helian Beiming. He was like that. He would never say it. Even if he did it, he would pretend that he didn’t do it.

Yu Wan smiled and sat down beside him. “What are you looking at?”

“The view,” he said.

“Does it look good?” Yu Wan asked.

Yu Wan could also see the courtyard in front of him, but the same thing was a different scenery in the eyes of different people.

“Not as good-looking as me,” Yan Jiuchao said.

Yu Wan choked. Wasn’t this the opposite? Shouldn’t he say “not as good-looking as you”? She, a beauty, was standing in front of him, but he was only concerned about being narcissistic?

“Come, come! Catch me! Lo-lo-lo-lo!” Xiaobao’s extremely annoying voice came from the Old Madam’s room.

Yu Wan saw Yan Jiuchao’s lips subconsciously curve into an extremely faint smile. Perhaps even he did not notice it. This was love that was engraved in his bones. He could not get rid of it, nor could he erase it.

Yu Wan thought of the small wooden knife she had seen in Helian Beiming’s hand. “Yan Jiuchao.”

“Yeah?”

Yu Wan asked, “Do you think Helian Sheng is the Grand General’s son?”

Yan Jiuchao replied, “Yes.”

“Aye?” This time, it was Yu Wan who was puzzled. I’m not joking with you. Could you be more serious in answering my question? “I mean his biological son,” Yu Wan said. “I heard Uncle mention Helian Sheng just now. I feel that he still dotes on him very much.”

Yan Jiuchao said, “He’s his son, of course he dotes on him.”

Yu Wan said thoughtfully, “Didn’t they say that Madam Tan had an affair with someone? Helian Sheng is someone else’s son?”

Yan Jiuchao paused. “Oh, there was indeed such a saying.”

Yu Wan looked at him. “Then which one do you think is the real one?”

“I don’t know,” Yan Jiuchao said.

Yu Wan’s face darkened. “Then why did you just say that Helian Sheng is Uncle’s son?”

Yan Jiuchao said innocently, “I guessed.”

Yu Wan : “…”

Is it really good for you to guess everything on such a serious topic? Yu Wan sighed and played with his slender fingers. “I really hope your guess is right.”

Yan Jiuchao looked at his fingers that she was twisting and turning and said, “Wouldn’t you know whether it’s right or not if you go and ask?”

Yu Wan blinked. “Ask who? It can’t be Uncle, right?”

Yan Jiuchao said, “Madam Tan.”

Madam Tan was Helian Sheng’s mother. She knew best if Helian Sheng was Helian Beiming’s son.

After lunch, Yu Wan found an excuse to leave the manor to buy candied hawthorn. At first, the Old Madam did not agree. “…We haven’t caught the assassin yet. What if you bump into him halfway? We can’t let anything happen to anyone else in our manor.”

Yu Wan glanced at the calm Yan Jiuchao without batting an eyelid. You’re the one who caused this situation, you should take the blame.

Yan Jiuchao could only lie that the assassin had been killed.

This was the truth. At that time, the fake Helian Sheng who assassinated Helian Beiming was indeed dead. He died extremely quickly, causing them to not even be able to ask who the other party was and why he assassinated Helian Beiming.

It had to be said that the Second Old Master really had some methods to be able to do this. Unfortunately, man’s plans could not compare to God’s. Helian Beiming’s life was saved by Yu Wan and Old Cui. The Second Old Master’s plan failed and he came up with another plan. In the end, he bumped into Yan Jiuchao’s gun and was seen through.

What did it mean by there’s a path to heaven where you didn’t take, instead you took a path to hell? This was it.

When she heard that the assassin was dead, the Old Madam was relieved and let Yu Wan out.

Yu Wan had been to Madam Tan’s nunnery near the Gu Temple that worshiped the Gu Empress’s golden body. In order to cover up her tracks, Yu Wan still changed into men’s clothes. She asked the coachman to park the carriage at the foot of the Gu Temple and planned to walk to the nunnery.

However, she never expected to meet an acquaintance here.

“State Preceptor, this way please!” A believer of the Gu Temple bowed with one hand and welcomed the State Preceptor out of another carriage.

Yu Wan was already very far from her carriage. It was too late to turn back, but if she walked forward, she would meet the State Preceptor. Although she was disguised as a man, her face was still her own. The State Preceptor would definitely be able to recognize her.

Yu Wan turned around and opened her folding fan to cover her right face. The State Preceptor went behind her with his escort. She hurriedly changed her fan to cover her left face. At first, the State Preceptor did not care about a young man by the roadside, but as he walked over, he suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart. He walked towards Yu Wan.

Yu Wan saw his figure from the corner of her eye and thought to herself that this was bad. The heavens wanted her dead!

At the critical moment, a delicate beauty suddenly walked over and grabbed Yu Wan’s wrist. She said coquettishly, “You heartless man! I finally caught you! You still want to hide? Can you hide? I can recognize you even if you turn into ashes! Where’s that little slut? Why isn’t she with you? Ah, I know, she’s following in my footsteps! You stinky men are indeed not good! Come over! See how I deal with you today!”

Yu Wan let the other party drag her into the nearby bamboo forest. Everyone who saw the commotion laughed. The State Preceptor thought to himself that he was overthinking. He shook his head and went to the Gu Temple with the believers.

After the crisis was resolved, Yu Wan heaved a sigh of relief. She retracted her hand and bowed deeply to the other party. “Thank you for your help, Miss Dong.”

That’s right, who else could it be but the courtesan of Paramount, Dong Xian’er?

Dong Xian’er smiled at Yu Wan. She lifted Yu Wan’s smooth chin with her fingertips and said charmingly, “Little husband, you’re really in deep trouble.”
