"But I already know!"

Qin Yiheng's face was grim, and he continued in a cold tone, "Wu Bao is also a member of the Qin family, and her safety must be the top priority! It's getting late now, so you should discuss it with her tomorrow morning. If you can do this charity work, then do it; if not, then come back with her third cousin."

After finishing speaking, Qin Yiheng hung up the phone without giving Gu Yunzhen a chance to refuse.

Gu Yunzhen held his phone, his brows furrowed deeply.

If his leg ailment heals, Qin San won't need to make a trip at all; he can stay by his wife's side himself.

Gu Yunzhen's hands gradually clenched into fists.

The next morning.

Shangguan Wu was awakened by a noise.

She opened her eyes, glanced at the time, and saw it was only 5:30.

However, the elderly don't sleep much, and since she went to bed early last night, it's normal for her mother-in-law to get up early. Listening to her mother-in-law walking around outside, she opened WeChat and suddenly exclaimed "Huh!"

Did Gu Yunzhen take a picture of her last night?

Shangguan Wu smiled and tapped his profile picture twice with her finger.

—You patted your husband.

He didn't set it?

Fine, she texted him: "[My dear husband, since you want my kiss so much, I'll grant your wish when I get home~]"

She thought Gu Yunzhen was still asleep so early, but she didn't expect him to reply.

Why didn't you sleep a little longer?

Well!

Shangguan Wu paused for a moment, then sent him a video call.

She thought she would see his face soon, but she never expected that Gu Yunzhen would reject her!

What's going on?

He refused?

Is there another woman with him, making it inconvenient for him to video chat with her?

Shangguan Wu was filled with questions.

Gu Yunzhen: [Don't overthink it. I just don't want to have trouble sleeping after video chatting with you.]

Shangguan Wu raised an eyebrow: [Don't tell me you didn't sleep all night!]

Suddenly, she saw Gu Yunzhen speaking...

After a while, a 30-second voice message was sent.

Shangguan Wu nodded.

“Your whereabouts have been exposed. Xiao Jingming sent his trusted confidant Xiao Jin to take you back to the capital to treat Xiao Zhongming’s leg. Xiao Jin is no good person. He will stop at nothing to complete the task Xiao Jingming gave him. Remember to bring bodyguards when you go out and don’t go alone.”

Shangguan Wu was taken aback.

She originally thought she could keep it a secret for ten days or half a month, but it was leaked so quickly?

However, it's impossible to treat Xiao Zhongming's leg!

Shangguan Wu lowered her voice and sent a voice message: "Was it only Xiao Jingming who sent people?"

Gu Yunzhen countered, "I'm still investigating. Do you have any suspects?"

Shangguan Wu said, "Chu Mingshu, Shangguan Xinyi, and Quan Tianrui are all possibilities."

Actually, it was Quan Tianrui who wanted to take advantage of the chaos. He wanted to gain a foothold in the Xiao family and would definitely not let Xiao Zhongming stand up, so he would stop her from going to the capital!

"Don't worry, I'll take good care of myself!"

Shangguan Wu cherishes her life and wants to grow old with him, becoming an old couple, holding hands and taking walks in the garden.

Thinking of this, she smiled, glanced at the sky outside, and changed the subject: "Don't stay up late during rehabilitation. If there's a next time, you'll be punished by me. Go to sleep now!"

"Okay," Gu Yunzhen replied, heartbroken, but she had no intention of going to sleep.

Since she mentioned those three people, which concerns her safety, he had to investigate thoroughly, otherwise he wouldn't be able to sleep soundly.

As dawn broke, Shangguan Wu got up.

Today she was going to see patients alone, so she took out her notebook and carefully reviewed the cases her teacher had seen yesterday.

Due to their living environment, most people here suffer from the same diseases, but there are also special cases.

After having breakfast, Shangguan Wu went to the ancestral hall where doctors were being treated.

Villagers were already queuing up outside.

Not long after she arrived, Bian Changyuan also came with two students.

Shangguan Wu greeted, "Good morning, teacher."

Bian Changyuan nodded: "Are you ready?"

"We can begin." Shangguan Wu sat down at the consultation table.

Bian Changyuan sat down in the dispensing area.

His two students glanced at Shangguan Wu several times. To be honest, Shangguan Wu was still their junior, but she was already capable of handling things on her own. It's really infuriating to compare people like that!

Shangguan Wu's diagnosis was very fast and accurate, and he immediately came up with a treatment plan.

"It's also cirrhosis."

Shangguan Wu diagnosed another patient and then looked at the teacher: "Use the Danshen treatment formula: 30 grams of Danshen, 30 grams of turtle shell (vinegar-processed), 15 grams of white peony root, 9 grams of immature bitter orange peel, and 9 grams of licorice root. Wash the herbs one by one, soak them in clean water for 30 to 40 minutes, and after soaking, bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to low heat."

She spoke slowly so that it would be easier for them to get the medicine.

Bian Changyuan asked her, "Why did you choose Salvia miltiorrhiza?"

"Danshen can protect liver cells and promote liver cell regeneration."

After answering, Shangguan Wu looked at the patient and said, "Grandpa, when you get the medicine, boil it again at home to get the complete medicine. Divide the medicine into three portions, and drink only one portion each day. Take it with warm water half an hour after meals."

"Thank you, little miracle doctor, thank you so much," the old man said gratefully.

"You're too kind."

Shangguan Wu smiled slightly and announced, "Please sit down next."

...

Bian Changyuan became more and more satisfied with what he saw, a smile always on his face. All morning, he tested Shangguan Wu while supervising the two students as they prepared the medicine.

Meanwhile, a dramatic chase is unfolding deep in the mountains.

After Xiao Jin escaped last night, he didn't go down the mountain. Instead, he went deep into the mountains and happened to run into Scarface and his gang. After learning that they were outlaws, he paid them a high price to do their work.
