Liu Yuanmeng humbled herself to the dust, just so that a flower could bloom in the small soil.
But love is not easy to find; she loved him, but he did not love her.

After Yi Chenli left, the situation in the court underwent tremendous changes, and for An Yuan'er's life, this was also a major turning point.
That day, after returning from the northern suburbs, An Yuan'er went directly to the Lan residence. Lan Jingtang seemed somewhat surprised to see her return.
He was sitting at the stone table drinking tea. Even though he had lost his sense of taste, Lan Jingtang had a special obsession with drinking tea. Although he couldn't taste it, the process of sipping tea calmed his restless heart.
He said calmly, "I thought that since you knew where he was, you would never come here again."
Lan Jingtang was too insightful. She knew that a large part of the reason An Yuan'er had been taking care of him these days was that she wanted to find out Yi Chenli's whereabouts from him.
He had already told her everything, but she still came back.
An Yuan'er looked deeply at Lan Jingtang, and then suddenly bowed to him solemnly.
The girl's voice trembled slightly and was solemn: "Lan Jingtang, thank you for saving him. Thank you for giving him a chance to live. You saved him, and you saved me too."
An Yuan'er knew that Lan Jingtang's serious injuries and weakened state were definitely due to the blood transfusion he had given Yi Chenli not long ago.
Lan Jingtang exchanged the medicinal blood for Yi Chenli, which is why Yi Chenli has been able to hold on until now; otherwise, he would not have been able to survive at the camp.
Lan Jingtang looked away, his heart filled with mixed emotions: "Xiao Yuan'er, I don't want you to thank me. You're making me feel so ashamed by this kind of bow."
"To be honest, I initially treated Yi Chenli's legs because of you. But this time, I changed Yi Chenli's blood and medicine, largely because I didn't want to lose an opponent, and it wasn't just because of you. It's just a pity that even after the change, I still couldn't completely save him."
Lan Jingtang, relying on his kindness to Yi Chenli, could have made many demands of An Yuan'er, and she certainly wouldn't have refused him.
But Lan Jingtang didn't want to gain anything from these things.
He liked her, but what he always wanted was for her to be willing.
After Lan Jingtang finished speaking, An Yuan'er still hadn't gotten up and remained in the bowing posture.
She spoke with difficulty, "I bow deeply to you not only to thank you for saving him, but also because I have another matter I'd like to ask you to handle."
"What?" Yi Chen left to seek medicine on the northern border. Xiao Yuan'er should know that he couldn't save him. Lan Jingtang couldn't understand her. What exactly did she want to do?
Nevertheless, Lan Jingtang couldn't bring himself to refuse her.
"Tell me. I'll do my best to help."
An Yuan'er knelt down and said earnestly, "Please accept me as your apprentice, Master. I want to follow you and learn medicine."
If An Yuan'er wants to learn medicine, she naturally needs to learn from the best teacher. Undoubtedly, the best teacher in Shengjing City is Lan Jingtang.
It turns out that An Yuan'er's bow to Lan Jingtang was a ceremony to formally become a disciple.
This outcome was unexpected by Lan Jingtang, and he was somewhat angry: "Xiao Yuan'er, don't be silly. Studying medicine is very hard, dirty and tiring. Moreover, medical training needs to be cultivated from a young age, and you are already past the best age. You already have the best doctors, and you don't need to learn it on your own at all."
