Chapter 456 A Difficult Love
"Happy." Chu Liuzheng let her go. "You were so busy arguing with your mother that you didn't even have dinner, right?"
Chu Yuxin blushed and scratched her cheek, "How did you know, sister?"
"Sister also grew up from a child." Chu Liuzheng pulled her up and walked towards the hall, asking as they walked, "What do you want to eat?"
"Anything?"
"Um."
"Hmm..." Chu Yuxin frowned and thought seriously for a while, then said, "Roasted pig."
Chu Liuzheng stumbled and nearly sprained her waist. She patted her sister's head helplessly and said, "Why are we having roasted pig so late at night? Change it up."
"Oh." Chu Yuxin pouted. Why don't adults keep their promises? Didn't they agree that anything is fine?
In the following days, Chu Liuzheng carried out the plan to fatten the emperor while going to Qingliang Palace every day to accompany Bai, which made the emperor, who had not been seen all day, very dissatisfied.
Chu Liuzheng comforted her perfunctorily and continued to accompany Bai.
But the results were minimal.
The words of the three palace maids were like a brand etched into Bai's heart. No matter how Chu Liuzheng tried to console her, Bai remained worried, her face devoid of a smile. Her condition, which had been improving, worsened, and even Qin Shu's acupuncture treatment proved ineffective.
"Mrs. Chu is depressed. If she continues like this, I'm afraid..." Qin Shu didn't say the rest of the words, but Chu Liuzheng understood clearly that if she continued like this, his mother would probably end up dying of depression.
After she sent Qin Shu away, she immediately sent someone to invite Feng Jing over.
Recently, Doctor Feng has been concentrating on developing a drug to treat brain diseases and has been spending all day in the Imperial Hospital. Chu Liuzheng hasn't seen him for quite some time.
Hearing that it was Chu Liuzheng who sent someone to invite him, Feng Jing put down his things and came.
He had an unshaven beard, and his collar, sleeves and hem were stained with red and black stains of unknown origin. He also had a fishy smell on him, as if he had been around fish for too long. He attracted people's attention as he walked along.
Chu Liuzheng almost didn't recognize the person at first glance.
[Hey, if you don't mention beards, they make you look more mature. Doctor Feng looks at least ten years older!]
She asked, "How did you get into this state?"
"Busy." Feng Jing rolled up his sleeves, tucked the stains on his cuffs, and looked around. "Where is the patient?"
"No rush, let Xuancao take you to wash up first." Chu Liuzheng was really worried that the smell on his body would make Bai Shi even more dizzy.
"Okay." Feng Jingjing nodded, then followed Xuancao out.
As soon as he left, Chu Liuzheng opened the system.
"Dr. Feng wasn't this unkempt when he was researching new drugs. Is there something wrong?"
Recently, she has been focusing on Bai and has no time to pay attention to others.
She looked through the system and found some shocking news.
[Frog Fun! Doctor Feng confessed his love to Doctor Qin, but was ruthlessly rejected!]
[Oh my, could it be that Doctor Feng was so heartbroken by his failed love proposal that he locked himself up in the Imperial Hospital to research new medicine?]
Thinking of Feng Jing's appearance, Chu Liuzheng couldn't help but shed tears of sympathy for him.
[The death of his mother has always been a knot in Doctor Qin's heart. It will take more than a day to resolve it. Doctor Feng has truly chosen a difficult relationship for himself.]
When Feng Jing came back, he had become the clean-cut miracle doctor again, with a naive smile.
Chu Liuzheng secretly observed his expression as he took him to see Mrs. Bai, unsure whether to comfort him or not. After all, she had experienced heartbreak in her past life, and while it wasn't heartbreaking, it was still painful.
Feng Jing turned around and asked, "Why do you keep peeking at me?"
Chu Liuzheng smiled and said, "You still don't look better with a beard."
Feng Jing hummed: "A beard is enough to make a man mature."
Chu Liuzheng: "Did Doctor Qin say that?"
"No." Feng Jing took two steps forward and suddenly said, "She doesn't like me."
【Here it comes.】
Chu Liuzheng pretended to be confused, "Did Doctor Qin say that himself?"
Feng Jing: “Yeah.”
Chu Liuzheng: "Then what are you going to do?"
Feng Jing was puzzled: "What are you going to do?"
"That is..." Chu Liuzheng organized his words, "Do you still want to like Doctor Qin?"
"Of course." Feng Jing nodded without hesitation. "She only rejected me once, it's nothing. Besides, my liking for her is my business, it has nothing to do with her."
Chu Liuzheng: "What if she keeps rejecting you and then marries someone else and has children?"
Feng Jing stopped and looked at her resentfully, his eyes gradually becoming misty.
Chu Liuzheng: Oh wow!
[Chu Liuzheng, you stinky mouth, can you please think before you speak? Isn't this just stabbing me in the heart?]
She raised her hand and clapped her lips. She couldn't think of any words of comfort and quickly changed the subject. "Well...my mother is in there. She's been having dizziness. Could you please take a look at her?"
When the topic of treating the illness was brought up, Feng Jing had to hold back the tears that had already formed because of love. He put on a serious doctor's face and went in to treat Bai.
Chu Liuzheng breathed a sigh of relief.
[That was a close call. I almost made her cry.]
How about I talk to Dr. Qin some other day, and then write down Dr. Qin's ideal type on a piece of paper and have Dr. Feng follow it?
[Hmm... No, Doctor Feng is too far from Doctor Qin's ideal type. If this were to work out, would Doctor Qin really like Doctor Feng or the character he portrayed?]
[We still need to take a long-term view, a long-term view...]
Chu Liuzheng paced back and forth, worrying about his friend's love and his mother's illness. He was really busy.
A moment later, Feng Jing came out carrying a medicine box, and Chu Yuxin followed him out.
"Xin'er, go back and stay with your mother." Chu Liuzheng sent his sister back and personally escorted Feng Jing out.
"Doctor Feng, how is my mother's condition?"
"Physical illnesses are easy to cure, but mental illnesses are difficult to heal." Feng Jing's diagnosis was almost the same as Qin Shu's. Chu Liuzheng turned his head and looked inside the hall, his brows unconsciously twisted into a knot.
Feng Jing looked at her and asked, "Do you know what Mrs. Chu is worried about?"
Chu Liuzheng nodded.
[Alas, I am my mother's biggest worry.]
"Heart disease needs to be treated with heart medicine. I can't help you with that." Feng Jing said, "I can only prescribe a prescription for recuperation."
"Okay, thank you." Chu Liuzheng forced a smile and asked Xuancao to go with him to the Imperial Hospital while she went back to accompany Bai. She found that when she was with Bai, Bai's mood would be much better.
As the days passed, Chu Liuzheng and Chu Yuxin thought of countless ways to make Bai laugh, but the laughter was over and the knot in their hearts was not untied, and the condition still did not improve.
Seeing that Bai was getting thinner and thinner and could not even eat, Chu Liuzheng was so worried that he could not sleep and lay in bed all night. Xiao Jingfan could not sleep well either, so he reached out and hugged her.
"Did I disturb you?" Chu Liuzheng sat up. "I'm going to sleep on the couch outside."
"Just sleep like this." Xiao Jingfan pulled her back into his arms and rubbed his chin against the top of her head. "I'll go talk to Madam Chu tomorrow."
【ha? 】
Chu Liuzheng looked up at him in shock, "What are you talking about?"
