Chapter 207: They weren't just after him, they were after his money too, right?!
Little chicken?
Is the old bald monk so agitated that he's yelling at her?
"oops."
Just then, the old lady's voice rang out: "You little girl, come in through Gate Number Two. Grandma is still waiting for you at the main gate."
"Greetings, Madam."
Pei Jinwu withdrew her gaze, straightened her body, and greeted him respectfully.
"What do you mean, 'old lady'? Don't be so formal!"
The old lady affectionately took Pei Jinwu's hand, her face beaming with joy, "Just follow that unfilial grandson and call me Grandma!"
grandmother?
A few seconds of silence.
Pei Jinwu moved her lips, but slowly called out, "Hello, Grandma."
"Hey!"
The old lady was slightly startled, then beamed with joy.
Actually...
She just said it casually.
The first few times she came, the young maid was a bit reserved and only addressed her as "Old Madam".
After all, the brat hasn't won her over yet, so we shouldn't force him.
Unexpectedly—
That kid's got some skills!
"Good, good, good." The old lady's face immediately lit up with joy, her heart aching with tenderness, her voice incredibly soft: "Why don't you go in?"
"..."
"Little master!"
Pei Jinwu opened her mouth, but before she could utter a sound, Dr. Zhao's voice rang out first.
The next second.
Dr. Zhao jumped up from his chair and rushed to the door in disbelief, staring at Pei Jinwu with surprise and delight. "What are you doing here?"
"I'm actually planning to find an opportunity to visit you in person."
"By the way," Dr. Zhao said, his attitude in front of the young apprentice extremely humble, bowing and scraping, "That kid He Huaixu, did he cause you any trouble?"
"..."
Pei Jinwu stared at him expressionlessly, her icy voice ringing out: "What did I just hear, little chicken?"
"yes."
Mentioning this made Dr. Zhao angry. He leaned close to Pei Jinwu's ear and whispered, "Madam Shang, she's met some quack from somewhere who claims to be a genius with superb medical skills."
"..."
Pei Jinwu didn't interrupt, but listened silently to his rant.
"Still in high school, hasn't even been exposed to systems medicine, what kind of genius is that?"
Dr. Zhao felt much better after venting, saying, "To me, he's just a nobody."
"A newbie?"
Pei Jinwu narrowed her eyes dangerously, repeatedly muttering those three words.
"but--"
After finishing his rant, Dr. Zhao finally noticed the intimate actions between Pei Jinwu and the old lady, and asked in confusion, "Little Master, do you know Old Madam Shang?"
"Young master?"
Pei Jinwu didn't answer, but the old lady spoke up first, "Dr. Zhao, do you know Wuwu?"
Fog?
Upon hearing these two words, Dr. Zhao fell into deep thought.
That name sounds familiar; I feel like I've heard it before.
wrong.
It seems like it just happened.
That's what that old man, Mr. Shang, said.
Could it be—
Dr. Zhao suddenly raised his head and looked at Pei Jinwu with a surprised expression.
Young?
Still in school?
Medical genius?
Isn't this her little master?
“She…she…” Dr. Zhao’s lips trembled violently, and his tongue was tied in knots with shock.
"Yeah, yeah."
The old lady nodded happily and excitedly introduced, "It's her, it's her! The medical genius I told you about is her."
As expected.
so.
His apprentice and the medical genius the old lady spoke of were the same person.
The old lady wanted the little girl to be his student. What did he say?
Small vegetables and chicken.
Aaaaaah!!!
"Wuwu, you are..."
Seeing the two of them with equally embarrassed expressions, the old lady sensed something was amiss.
“Hmm.” Pei Jinwu nodded and said, word by word, “Dr. Zhao and I are acquaintances; we’ve known each other for a long time.”
"You agree, right, Dr. Zhao?"
"Yes, yes, yes." Dr. Zhao nodded hurriedly, his face extremely pale, and stammered, "Young master, this is all a misunderstanding, I didn't mean to..."
Waaaaah.
It's hard to explain.
Can't you kneel down and apologize to her?
"I didn't say anything."
Pei Jinwu twitched the corner of her mouth and glanced around the living room, clearly looking for someone.
"Shi Yan?"
The old lady saw through her little scheme and immediately sent someone to look for her.
"Let's go inside, it's terribly hot outside."
The old lady pulled Pei Jinwu along happily as they walked inside.
Dr. Zhao followed closely behind, dejected.
"How about it?" After sitting down, the old lady began to boast, "Not only is Wu a genius doctor, but she's also Shi Yan's future wife. You still want to introduce a girlfriend to Shi Yan? Can she compare to our Wu?"
girlfriend?
Dr. Zhao looked up again, his heart pounding.
His apprentice was actually Shang Shiyan's girlfriend.
What a coincidence!
"Introduce a girlfriend?" Pei Jinwu held her tea, took a small sip, and looked at Dr. Zhao with a puzzled expression.
"It's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding." Dr. Zhao quickly explained, "I originally thought that Shang Shiyan and you, Little Master, looked like a perfect couple, and I was going to play matchmaker for you two."
"Who knew this would be a match made in heaven, a destiny, a union ordained by fate..."
"Just because of this..."
Pei Jinwu stared at him sarcastically, raising an eyebrow slightly, and said casually, "You're not only after him, but also his money, aren't you?!"
"Cough cough cough..."
When his little scheme was exposed, Dr. Zhao blushed, too ashamed to admit it, let alone lie or deny it.
All I could do was laugh awkwardly to make up for the embarrassment.
"So Wuwu is Dr. Zhao's apprentice?" The old lady and the old man exclaimed in surprise. "We were even thinking of having you become his apprentice."
"No, no!"
Dr. Zhao quickly stood up, placed his hands in front of him, and lowered his head slightly.

"It's like a flood washing away the King of Hell's palace!" The old man laughed heartily. "Everyone knows each other, so things will be much easier."
The group was chatting.
Shang Shiyan and He Huaixu appeared in the hall after returning from their stroll in the garden.
"Come here quickly!"
Upon seeing He Huaixu, Dr. Zhao hurriedly waved.
Damn it.
If someone doesn't come to his rescue soon, he'll be killed by the young master's glare.
“Teacher,” He Huaixu said with a smile.
"Be serious." Dr. Zhao patted He Huaixu on the back, his expression serious: "Your junior advisor is here too."
"ah?"
He Huaixu glanced over and saw his younger sister's nonchalant face, then looked at his teacher's cowardly appearance.
He guessed that he had suffered at Wuwu's place.
"Huh what?"
Dr. Zhao felt like dying; he really shouldn't make the young apprentice angry at this moment.
"oh."
He Huaixu gave a forced smile, his low, husky voice slowly asking, "Little sister Wuwu, how long have you been here?"
"Are you trying to die?!"
Dr. Zhao gasped sharply, nearly fainting.
What's your name?
Fog!
younger sister!
He didn't even dare to call the young master by his name. He Huaixu is quite bold!
You brat.
Trying to claim kinship at this time? You've got a screw loose!
——
Goodnight.
Dr. Zhao: siblings of siblings, lovers of lovers, grandfathers and grandsons of grandfathers and grandsons.
Damn it.
They're all after me!!!
