At this moment, a maid came over. As if she did not realize that the atmosphere was dangerous, she bowed and said, "Master Shan, the old lady said that these three people are harmless and wants to invite them over."
Tang Zhaoyi asked, "Did the old lady say these words herself?"
“That’s right,” the maid said respectfully.
Tang Zhaoyi's expression darkened further.
Shan Ya said, "I was planning to take them to see the old lady, but since Miss Jinlu is here, please take them there."
“Alright.” Jinlu looked at Xue Ran and her group. “Please follow me, you three.”
Xue Ran nodded. "Thank you, young lady."
The Tang Clan was built in the mountains, so there were many pavilions and towers. A casual glance revealed many lush green bamboos standing tall. The three followed Jinlu and walked for about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea before finally arriving at Old Madam Tang's courtyard.
Jinlu stood at the door. "Grandma, the person has been brought."
"Come in," a strong voice came from inside.
As the group entered the hall, they saw the elderly woman sitting in the main seat. Although she had a full head of white hair, her complexion was rosy and she looked radiant. In particular, her eyes had a sharpness that could see right through people. One could imagine that she must have been a beautiful and dashing woman in her youth. This was the old lady Tang, whose maiden name was Qin Jian and who was now the highest decision-maker of the Tang Clan.
"Junior Xue Ran greets Old Madam Tang." Xue Ran cupped her hands and introduced the people around her one by one, "This is my disciple Qingyu, and this is..."
"My surname is Xia, and I'm just a nobody. My name is nothing to brag about," Feng Guang quickly said. She winked at Xue Ran, not wanting others to know that she was Yi Wushang's fiancée.
Xue Ran understood and stopped mentioning her identity, instead saying, "Grandma Tang, I came here on someone's behalf to treat Young Master Tang."
"I know why Doctor Xue came." Old Mrs. Tang held the cloth bag that Jinlu presented. She did not open it to look at it. With a look of nostalgia on her face, she said, "Back then, I had only taken a bath in the hot spring in the mountains for a while when I turned around and found that my undergarment was gone. It turned out that he had picked it up."
A group of people remained silent.
Is it really okay to talk about your undergarment being picked up so casually? Besides, wouldn't "theft" be a more appropriate word?
Feng Guang muttered to himself, "No wonder he's the most shameless person in the world; he even steals women's undergarments."
"Shameless." This time, Qingyu and Fengguang shared the same thought.
Xue Ran understood why Sun Yidao had given this so-called token to Feng Guang instead of himself. Sun Yidao knew that if he had given it to him, Feng Guang would definitely not have given it to him; he was too shy.
Grandma Tang knew she was the one who had caused the current silence, but she wasn't embarrassed at all. She told Jinlu to put the things away and said, "I feel really bad that Dr. Xue has come all this way for Jiuge, but Jiuge's condition is really worrying. I would like to ask Dr. Xue to go and see Jiuge first before resting. Is that alright?"
"Saving lives is the priority, and I also intend to treat Young Master Tang first."
“Very good, Doctor Xue, please follow me.”
Grandma Tang took Xue Ran to Tang Jiuge's residence, and Feng Guang went along as well. Qing Yu and Jin Lu went to the guest room, where he was to organize the things he had brought and put them there.
Feng Guang walked beside Xue Ran, looking left and right, completely unconcerned about the conversation between Xue Ran and Old Madam Tang about Tang Jiuge's poison. Suddenly, a woman rushed out from around the corner. She ran very fast and dodged quickly when she saw someone in front of her. However, she dodged Old Madam Tang and Xue Ran, but she couldn't dodge Feng Guang.
As the two collided and were about to fall, Xue Ran reached out and grabbed the soft, boneless hand. However, he did not grab Feng Guang's hand.
Feng Guang fell heavily to the ground, and before she could even cry out in pain, she heard Xue Ran's surprised voice from the other end, "Yueyue?"
