If you don't want to marry, just kill him.
Li Jinghe was placed in the bathtub, and Dongxi watched as Sai Taxue grabbed handfuls of precious medicinal herbs and threw them in.
He said with heartache, "Young master, if we keep throwing things away like this, we'll soon have nothing left."
Sai Taxue continued in his usual manner, saying, "Don't worry, someone will naturally pay for these things."
“Even if Master Li sold all his assets, he still couldn’t buy so many of our precious medicinal herbs,” Dongxi said with a pained expression.
Sai Taxue saw that all the medicinal herbs had been thrown in, clapped her hands and said, "Who said it was given by Master Li?"
Upon hearing this, Dongxi asked in confusion, "Who is that?"
Sai Taxue looked at him with a warning in her eyes and said, "Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask."
Dongxi immediately shut up.
Li Jinghe soaked in the bathtub for two hours, and his complexion improved significantly.
"That's enough, Dongxi. Get him out of the water and dress him."
Sai Taxue wiped her hands, opened the door, and said, "Alright, he's safely out of danger."
Upon hearing this, Su Yuexing's face lit up with joy, and she exclaimed excitedly, "Thank you!"
After saying that, he hurriedly walked into the house, with Hua Hong and Dong Yang following behind him.
Li Jinghe did look much better than before.
Su Yuexing secretly rejoiced that he was alright, otherwise how would she explain it to Master Li?
If Master Li knew that his precious son almost lost his life because of me, I doubt I would have a good time living in the Li household.
Su Yuexing stayed by Li Jinghe's bedside for a full day and night.
Li Jinghe slowly opened his eyes, and Su Yuexing was fast asleep beside him.
The door was pushed open from the outside, and Sai Taxue walked in, exclaiming in surprise, "Oh! You're awake! I thought you wouldn't wake up for another two or three days."
Hearing the noise, Su Yuexing looked up and exclaimed excitedly, "You're awake!"
Li Jinghe nodded and said, "Help me up."
Su Yuexing gently helped him sit up and let his head rest on the bed.
"Make room for me, I'll treat him," Sai Taxue said to Su Yuexing as she walked over.
Upon hearing this, Su Yuexing made room for him and watched from the side.
Sai Taxue placed her hand on her wrist, her brows furrowing slightly.
Su Yuexing looked at him nervously, afraid that something might happen to Li Jinghe's health.
After a long while, Sai Taxue withdrew her hand and said, "Get some rest, don't overwork yourself."
"Be careful! You absolutely must not catch a cold again!" he warned specifically.
"I understand," Li Jinghe said.
Seeing that Li Jinghe was safe and sound, Su Yuexing felt relieved.
After tidying up, the group boarded a carriage and returned to the Li residence.
Throughout the journey, Su Yuexing and Li Jinghe did not exchange a single word.
One closed his eyes to rest, while the other lifted the carriage curtain to watch the lively scene outside.
Back at the Li residence, Su Yuexing stepped forward and took the wheelchair that Dongyang was pushing, saying, "Let me do it."
Li Jinghe's lips involuntarily curled upwards.
Master Li walked out of the hall, "Dr. Sai! I've been waiting for you for so long!"
Seeing Li Jinghe come in from outside, Li Zhi asked in surprise, "He'er? Weren't you in Changshou Garden? Why did you run outside?"
Li Jinghe casually said, "I'm getting a bit bored staying in the courtyard, so I'll go out for a walk."
Li Zhi said worriedly, "But He'er, your body can't withstand the cold."
Li Jinghe replied directly, "My health is very good."
Seeing his attitude, Li Zhi had no choice but to turn his gaze to Sai Taxue beside him.
"You are a kind-hearted doctor, and in the end you still forgave our Li family and are willing to treat my son!"
Sai Taxue waved his hand and said, "I'm just doing my job because I'm paid to do their bidding."
Li Zhi glanced at Su Yuexing beside him with annoyance and said, "It's all my daughter-in-law's fault for being rude, which caused Doctor Sai to suffer."
"I've arranged a lavish banquet tonight, I wonder if the Divine Physician Sai will be there..."
Before she could finish speaking, Sai Taxue waved her hand to interrupt her, saying, "No need, I prefer quiet."
"Just prepare a quiet villa for me, so I can focus on studying his illness."
"Okay, okay!" Li Zhi said several times, afraid that Sai Taxue would change her mind.
"Someone, arrange for Physician Sai to stay at Zhuxin Garden," Li Zhi ordered.
The servant stepped forward and said, "Dr. Sai, please come with me."
After they left, Li Zhi's expression changed, and he said to Su Yuexing with a gloomy face, "Come with me."
Li Jinghe said, "Father, let's talk here."
Li Zhi was taken aback and said to Li Jinghe, "You're not feeling well, let Dongyang push you back into the courtyard."
Li Jinghe coldly refused, "No."
"If there's anything you need to say, just tell her in front of me."
“You…” Li Zhi was furious.
"You've really forgotten your father after marrying a wife!" he said irritably.
Su Yuexing's heart softened; so this is what it feels like to have someone backing you up.
Li Zhiqing glanced at Sang and said, "Since you have already brought back Doctor Sai, then I will let bygones be bygones for what happened before."
Su Yuexing said respectfully, "Thank you, Father."
“Your sister can also stay in the Li residence,” he said.
Hearing him mention his sister, Su Yuexing frowned slightly, recalling the way he looked at her last time and his attitude, which sent a chill down her spine.
Su Yuexing pushed Li Jinghe back to Changshou Garden. On the way, he asked, "What did Father tell you about letting bygones be bygones?"
Su Yuexing said calmly, "It's nothing."
Li Jinghe lowered his eyes; she was hiding something from him.
Li Zhigang returned to his study, and the butler rushed in with a letter. "Master, someone has sent you a letter."
Li Zhi took it and looked at the familiar handwriting on the cover with a shocked expression.
He quickly instructed, "Close the door after you leave!"
"Yes." The butler acknowledged the order and left.
Li Zhi opened the envelope and read it aloud, sentence by sentence.
After watching it, he slumped into his chair, as if all his strength had been drained away; this day had finally come.
Xie Xuanye lay on the chair, holding a fruit in his hand, tossing it up occasionally and catching it again.
Seeing them return, he stood up from his chair and said, "You're finally back."
He walked up to Li Jinghe and pleaded pitifully, "Jinghe, please think of something for me."
“My father already knows I’m here with you, and he’s sent people to take me back.”
"Based on the journey, they should arrive here in about three months."
Li Jinghe said calmly, "Since your father has come to invite you, then you should go back."
"Li Jinghe! You!" Xie Xuanye said angrily.
Li Jinghe said, "You can run away on the first day of the month, but you can't run away on the fifteenth."
Xie Xuanye held his head, squatted down with a look of utter despair, and said, "Am I really going to become a bargaining chip in their political marriage?"
"I still have many great ambitions to fulfill!"
Li Jinghe said, "Instead of looking so gloomy here, you should think carefully about what to do when you get back."
Upon hearing this, Xie Xuanye suddenly stood up and said, "Jinghe! From what you're saying, you have a plan?"
Li Jinghe said, "Since you don't like that girl, why don't you just kill her?"
Xie Xuanye's eyes widened in shock. "What kind of twisted idea is this?!"
Su Yuexing, who was standing next to him, was also shocked. A vibrant life could be so easily erased from his mouth.
“Then you should marry her,” Li Jinghe said.
Xie Xuanye squatted down helplessly and said, "Then you might as well kill me."
"Ask your brothers for advice," Li Jinghe said calmly.
Xie Xuanye looked up at him and said, "Those people don't know my true identity."
“I told them that I was just a hunter with a chivalrous heart.”
Li Jinghe sarcastically remarked, "He has a chivalrous heart but lacks the courage to marry a woman."
Xie Xuanye said helplessly, "Jing He, stop mocking me and think of a solution for me."
Li Jinghe said indifferently, "Isn't there still three months? What's the rush?"
"When soldiers come, generals will block them; when water comes, earth will dam it."
As Su Yuexing left Changshou Garden, she saw a woman on the road who covered her face with a handkerchief, revealing only a pair of affectionate eyes.
Su Yuexing tried to walk around her and move to the side, but she moved to block Su Yuexing's path.
Su Yuexing looked her up and down. Who was this person? "What brings you here, young lady?"
"Of course I want to talk to you," she said shyly.
Su Yuexing frowned slightly upon hearing the voice. Why did the voice sound so awkward?
"Miss, do we know each other?" Su Yuexing asked.
“We not only know each other, we’re very close.” She finished speaking and slowly removed her veil.
Su Yuexing froze when she saw her face.
Zhou Yong had his face painted red, looked shy, and even winked at her.
Su Yuexing got goosebumps instantly, touched her arm, and said with a look of disgust, "How did you end up looking like this?"
Zhou Yong quickly moved closer, startling Su Yuexing into backing away step by step.
"If you have something to say, just say it properly. Don't get so close to me," Su Yuexing said.
Zhou Yongdao asked, "What's wrong with how I look? Is there anything wrong with me?"
Su Yuexing swallowed hard. "It's nothing, as long as you like it."
"Sister Su, I wonder if you have any free time today to chat with me and calm our minds."
Su Yuexing was genuinely surprised by his words and said, "No...no...I don't have time."
After saying that, she pushed Zhou Yong and ran away quickly, afraid that he would catch up with her in the next second.
Zhou Yong steadied himself, clutching his chest, and said, "That's some serious strength!"
"But I like it." After saying that, she skipped and hopped away.
Su Yuexing looked like she had seen a ghost, and was still in shock when she returned to her residence.
Hua Hong walked over and asked, "Young Madam, what's wrong?"
Why do you look so pale?
Su Yuexing poured two glasses of water, drank them, and tried to calm herself down by saying, "How did Zhou Yong end up like that?"
Hua Hong asked, "Did the young mistress see the young master?"
Su Yuexing nodded and said, "Yeah, it almost scared me to death."
Hua Hong said, "I heard that his manhood was cut off, which is why the young master's personality changed drastically."
Su Yuexing covered her mouth in shock, "This..."
Hua Hong said, "Young Master Biao is the one who deserves this the most."
Su Yuexing frowned and swallowed hard. The person who cut off his manhood was also a ruthless person.
Li Jinghe sat by the window, watching the leaves slowly drift down from the tree.
