Renji Medical Clinic is really big and even has an information room.
Rows of shelves held the medical records of each patient. Following Bai Muchen's instructions, Yan Miaoling placed the medical records of the female patients she had seen today into their respective file bags.
This job is very simple, as long as you can read and write.
About a quarter of an hour later, Bai Muchen's personal servant Chuan Bai appeared with a cup of hot tea in his hand. "Miss Ling'er, our master said you've worked so hard, so he prepared this health-preserving tea especially for you. Please try it."
Yan Miaoling raised her eyebrows and tasted it again.
Last time, it was Shen Aoshan who persuaded her to try it, this time it was...
Yan Miaoling was curious and spoke to the young servant through the gap between the shelves, "Brother Chuanbai, is Doctor Bai's medicinal tea very famous?"
How can I describe her? Perhaps because she's used to living alone, she's wary of others. She especially doesn't want to eat anything unknown. But she can't refuse someone's kindness, so she just tries to flatter them.
Who knew Chuanbai would react so strongly, looking at her like she was a fool. "My God, don't you even know that our young master's medicinal tea is so coveted by the rich and powerful in the capital? This one cup alone could sell for at least fifty taels of silver outside. The key is that even if you have money, you may not be able to buy it. It depends on the young master's mood."
"What?" In this dynasty where two taels of silver was enough for a poor family to live for a year, a cup of tea was actually so expensive! Wouldn't it be a waste if I didn't drink it?
Yan Miaoling was much more enthusiastic. She put down the things in her hands and walked out from behind the shelf. She took the white porcelain teacup and smiled sweetly, "Thank you, Brother Chuanbai!" The people around the male protagonist should have good relationships to facilitate their work.
Then, she took a deep look at the orange-yellow tea in the cup, tilted her head back, and pretended to drink it, but in reality, she poured it back into the space while no one was paying attention. Then, she returned the cup, "Thank you!"
She stared at Chuanbai as he left, feeling very confused.
She had never intended to drink this medicinal tea from the beginning. Especially after receiving the alarm in her mind, which warned her that there was something wrong with the tea, she had no intention of drinking it.
I just don't know why Bai Muchen would attack a maid like her...
Also, she had no idea what symptoms she'd experience after drinking it. What should she do? She could just pretend to faint like they did on TV; it would always be a safe bet.
She pretended to sway, then reluctantly walked to the table at the entrance of the library and sat down on a chair inside. Then, she lay on the table without moving, as if she had fallen asleep.
After a while, she heard footsteps.
It should be Bai Muchen.
Steady, gentle, accompanied by the rustling sound of linen fabric...
Then, there was the sound of a door closing. Then, the sound of a chair being pulled past. Then, Yan Miaoling felt a pair of cool hands lift her head...
Oh my god! What on earth is he going to do? Should I open my eyes? Aa ...
Running out of ideas, Yan Miaoling half-closed her eyes, a flicker of confusion in them. She vaguely confirmed that the person before her was indeed Bai Muchen. Then she saw what looked like a pocket watch around his neck.
She had a flash of inspiration: hypnosis?
Is he going to hypnotize himself?
Without giving it any time to think, Bai Muchen's fingers had already reached the back of her neck...
ah!
I don't know what the fuck she did, it hurts so much. She must be alert, otherwise she won't look like that.
She opened her eyes, her gaze was dull and her eyes were fixed...
Bai Muchen really had no doubts. He took out the fake pocket watch and waved it in front of him...
she...
I really want to burst out laughing. Really!
She was not good at lying or acting, and was the most honest person in the department. But in order to find out Bai Muchen's purpose, she could only pinch the flesh on her leg with her left hand.
Oh, oh, oh...
Fortunately, Bai Muchen, who was very confident in his medicine and hypnosis, did not become suspicious. He quickly asked the first question, "Are you really Shen Aoshan's maid?"
this...
He started with a yes or no question and didn't even give her a chance to make up a story.
"Yes!" she said hesitantly.
"You know that the person who broke into your house the night before was Xuanyuan Mingchen, right?"
this...
Should I say it is right or wrong?
Intuitively, she should have shaken her head. Otherwise, she'd be bombarded with questions. For example, how did she recognize Xuanyuan Mingchen? The suspicion of a female protagonist was already enough for her to handle with caution.
I don’t want to provoke another one!
Shake your head.
"Will you tell the secret that he wasn't seriously injured to anyone other than you?"
Depend on!
Is this even necessary?
I have to say no. They're good friends. If she said she'd tell on me, she'd be dead by now. [Didn't you see Bai Muchen's slender fingers already touching her jugular artery?]
Shake your head again.
She played dumb while answering questions, all the while constantly on guard against the other party's attack... so she could quickly escape into space. It could be said that her mind was in a state of high tension.
He didn't notice that Bai Muchen's eyes moved.
Just when she thought the other party would ask another question, Bai Muchen suddenly touched her wrist and her pulse.
Honestly, [She's never experienced physical contact like this with a handsome guy!] Oh no, no matter if they were ugly or handsome, she's never had any contact. Not even holding hands.
It's ridiculous to say the least.
She was quite good-looking. Growing up surrounded by envy and compliments, she was always the campus belle. This led to her fantasies about her future partner. When she first graduated from college, she had some excellent suitors. But she always felt she wasn't perfect enough.
But after working for a few years, she realized that while she still had suitors, their quality was declining. So, until her sudden death at the age of 28, she never had a boyfriend.
If she had met someone as good as the handsome guy in front of her, why would she not even give him her first kiss...?
Really...
"Ah!" Yan Miaoling screamed uncontrollably. While she was lost in thought, the bastard pressed some acupoint on her wrist, causing pain to surge into her head.
She really couldn't help it. o(╥﹏╥)o
What should I do? Should I continue to perform this play?
Forget it, I'll just keep pretending to be indifferent. Who says that people who are distracted can't feel pain? Even so, the flash of panic and the sparkle of pain in her eyes couldn't be deceived.
Bai Muchen felt powerless.
He had been practicing medicine for five years. Whether it was among the powerful in the court, the gangsters, or the common people, he had never made a mistake. This was the first time he had fallen for a little girl. Curious, he didn't want to play along with Yan Miaoling anymore, so he just opened up, "Are you immune to all poisons?"
Well...
Well...
Now that she'd been found out to be faking it, there was no point in continuing. Yan Miaoling replied obediently, "No. Maybe... it was just a coincidence." She lowered her eyes slightly, occasionally stealing a glance at Bai Muchen, wanting to see what he would say.
But then I thought, you were the one who wanted to trick me first, why are you treating me like I did something wrong? He spoke first, "Doctor Bai, I also want to know why you hypnotized Junior Sister's maid?"
