"nonsense!"
Shangguan Wu retorted seriously, then after two seconds, she said with a smile, "My dearest Mingming is Mom!"
"..."
Shangguan Lin thought she was going to explain, but what did she do?
That's heartbreaking!
Shangguan Lin hung up the phone in anger.
Old Master Shangguan looked at him speechlessly, but after all, he was his son. If he lost face, he would lose all his pride. So he reminded him, "What's the use of looking for Wu Bao? You should think about how to please your future in-laws."
Shangguan Lin was dumbfounded: "…………"
Suddenly, he inexplicably thought of that brat Gu Yunzhen.
Why the sudden feeling of sympathy?
Shangguan Lin shook his head vigorously.
"I understand. Dad, let's keep it from Xiaoxian for now. I'll go to the Qin family after her afternoon nap and hear what they think."
Shangguan Lin said in a very manly way.
Old Master Shangguan nodded in satisfaction and instructed, "Keep a good attitude."
"Dad, I'm not Wu Bao, you don't need to..."
"It was Wubao who found your father-in-law's family."
"..."
Shangguan Lin was heartbroken once again.
His lips twitched, and he left the study clutching his chest.
At the same time, the helicopter landed on the lawn of Guyuan Garden in Changteng City.
After getting off the helicopter, Shangguan Wu didn't go inside. She handed her bag to Gu Yunzhen and said, "Honey, I'll go to the pharmacy to prepare the herbs for your medicinal bath."
Gu Yunzhen asked knowingly, "No acupuncture tonight?"
Shangguan Wu's lips curved upwards, but when she turned around, her smile vanished, and she said seriously, "I have to attend a banquet tonight. I'll come upstairs to give you acupuncture once the medicine is ready."
After she finished speaking, she walked towards the pharmacy.
Gu Yunzhen gazed at her slender back, his handsome, sword-like eyebrows furrowing slightly.
"eleven."
"Yes, Fourth Young Master."
After a two-second silence, Gu Yunzhen instructed in a low voice, "Go and get me a list of the banquet that Madam is attending."
"Yes, Fourth Young Master."
Gu Shiyi responded respectfully.
Gu Yunzhen maneuvered her wheelchair toward the villa.
Upon entering the pharmacy, Shangguan Wu saw that Elder You's apprentice, Leng Yan, was also there, and raised an eyebrow in surprise.
When Leng Yan saw her enter, his eyes were once again filled with amazement. He thought that only the first meeting would evoke such a feeling of amazement, and that once you've seen beauty, you wouldn't feel that way anymore. But today, Shangguan Wu still managed to amaze him.
His eyes flickered slightly, and when she looked over, he quickly lowered his head and said, "Greetings, Fourth Young Mistress."
"Hello, please don't be shy. Just pretend I'm not here."
Shangguan Wu glanced at him, then walked straight to the medicine cabinet to find the herbs and began to prepare the medicine little by little.
Leng Yan was stunned.
He watched Shangguan Wu going back and forth in front of the medicine cabinet taking medicine, and couldn't help but step forward and ask, "Is there anything I can help you with?"
Shangguan Wu looked up at him in surprise: "No, you go ahead and do your thing."
After saying that, she continued preparing the medicine.
“I have nothing else to say. Is Fourth Young Madam worried that I might take the wrong medicine?” Leng Yan asked as she walked to the medicine cabinet.
Shangguan Wu pointed to the names of the medicines posted on the medicine cabinet and said, "If you can still pick the wrong one if it's available, then I don't think you're suited for this line of work. Because traditional Chinese medicine requires precise medication. If you accidentally use the wrong medicine, at best the prescription will be ineffective, and at worst it could be fatal."
Leng Yan didn't expect her to make it sound so serious.
"I'm sorry, I understand. I promise I won't mix up the herbs again," he assured.
Shangguan Wu paused for a second, then smiled slightly: "You don't need to apologize to me, but I heard you. I wish you success in becoming an excellent doctor."
Leng Yan looked at her smile, his pupils suddenly contracting: "Thank you."
He lowered his eyes to look at the ground and said gently, "Then I won't disturb you any longer, Fourth Young Madam. You're busy, I'll go now." After saying that, he turned and left quickly.
Shangguan Wu had almost finished preparing the medicine and was about to leave.
Leng Yan walked in again.
"Fourth Young Madam, may I ask you questions about traditional Chinese medicine? My master is also a beginner in traditional Chinese medicine, and there are many things he doesn't know very well."
Dr. You was a master surgeon. It was because of Gu Yunzhen's legs that he delved into the knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine in order to find more ways to cure Gu Yunzhen.
Leng Yan is You Lao's apprentice, but he is interested in traditional Chinese medicine.
Without much thought, Shangguan Wu said, "Sure."
Leng Yan looked at her nervously and asked pleadingly, "Can I add you on WeChat? That way I can ask you questions."
"Sure."
Shangguan Wu realized his phone was not on him after he finished speaking.
"Please save my number; my WeChat ID is my phone number." She recited a string of numbers.
Leng Yan repeated the conversation and saved it to her phone's contact list.
"Thank you, Fourth Young Madam."
"Don't mention it. Traditional Chinese medicine is profound and extensive. Study hard, young man."
After giving her encouraging words, Shangguan Wu took the three prepared medicine packets and quickly left the pharmacy.
Back at the villa, she saw Gu Yunzhen sitting in the living room.
"Honey, what are you doing here?"
Doesn't he usually stay in his study?
"Acupuncture now?" Gu Yunzhen asked instead of answering.
So he was waiting for her to give him acupuncture!
Shangguan Wu smiled and said, "Okay, let's go upstairs."
She waited for him to bring his wheelchair over, then followed him into the elevator and went up to the third floor.
“Honey, I just saw Master You’s apprentice at the pharmacy. He seems very interested in traditional Chinese medicine and is a very diligent young man.”
Shangguan Wu chatted with him as usual.
Gu Yunzhen suddenly lowered his eyes, a mocking smile curving his thin lips: "Does being interested in something guarantee success?"
A hint of surprise flashed in Shangguan Wu's eyes as she looked at him in astonishment and said, "You can't say that. If you're interested in something, you'll at least go all out, right? Wouldn't that bring you one step closer to success?"
She argued with him over a stranger?
Gu Yunzhen frowned, her voice as cold as ice: "Chicken soup for the soul? There is no failure, only one step closer to success."
At that moment, Shangguan Wu felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over his head.
She spoke softly, "Even if I failed, I had given it my all and tried my best. Although I was not satisfied with the result, at least I won't have any regrets."
After she finished speaking, she walked past him and went into the bedroom first.
Gu Yunzhen's expression shifted slightly.
Why did her mood suddenly change?
Isn't what he said the truth?
Whether it's being a person or doing things, you can't rely solely on enthusiasm; you have to use your brain!
Gu Yunzhen lowered her eyes and maneuvered her wheelchair into the bedroom.
For some reason, looking at Shangguan Wu, who was silent and expressionless, he had a strange feeling. He didn't like seeing her like this; it felt out of place. She should be bright and cheerful.
"Shangguan Wu".
Gu Yunzhen called her name in a deep, magnetic voice.
Shangguan Wu paused slightly, her voice calm: "You should lie down on the bed first, I'll be fine soon."
