Chapter 151 He is a fool
It was not too late, the shops on the street were still open, candles were lit in the clinic, there were no patients tonight, and the doctor was talking to his wife and daughter.
Ouch——
The sound of horse driving was heard outside the clinic, and it sounded very urgent. The doctor thought that someone with a critical illness had come, so he hurriedly got up to check.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he stepped out of the outer hall, he saw a man striding towards him.
The doctor recognized that the person who came was the one who kicked the door on the Lantern Festival, and his face suddenly changed color with fright.
"Sir, you——"
Lu Yunzheng stopped walking, without any ill intentions. He took a deep breath and asked in a deep voice:
"My wife has been under the doctor's care these past few days. May I ask how her injuries are recovering?"
When the doctor heard this, he was confused.
"Sir, I don't understand what you mean."
Lu Yunzheng's heart trembled when he heard this, and his hands under his sleeves trembled slightly. He asked:
"My wife has been coming to the clinic to change her medicine these days...hasn't she? Or is there another doctor here?"
The doctor still didn't understand, but seeing that Lu Yunzheng seemed to be more friendly than last time, he also patiently responded:
"Then you must have made a mistake. This small clinic is owned by me, and I am the only doctor here."
"Sir, your wife hasn't come since the Lantern Festival."
"From what you said, my Lord, my Lady's injuries should have been treated. This is a good thing. I hope my Lady will recover soon and be blessed with good fortune."
The doctor spoke politely, intending to send this evil spirit away as quickly as possible. However, when he looked up, he was shocked to see the man in front of him had a distraught look on his face.
"Sir?"
The doctor called out softly.
Lu Yunzheng was shocked, as if he had just come to his senses, and asked in a trembling voice: "Doctor, are you sure?"
The doctor nodded repeatedly, very confident.
After all, there are very few women who were injured like that, and he would definitely not make a mistake.
Hearing this, Lu Yunzheng turned around and walked out in a daze, with only one sentence echoing in his mind -
"Ms. Gu has found a good doctor."
He knew that Xizhi was hiding something from him, such as the two maids.
But apart from those two maids, Xizhi did not do anything else, and he always believed that Xizhi loved him and would never do anything bad to him.
But what about now?
He had been running around for Xizhi these days, exhausted both mentally and physically, and had to be humble in front of Hong Chi, all for the purpose of inviting a good doctor.
As a result, Xizhi had already received a good doctor.
Where did this good doctor come from? Why did Qie Xizhi hide it from him?
Doesn’t Xizhi know how worried and guilty he is?
Lu Yunzheng was already in a state of panic. Normally he could jump onto the horse swiftly, but today he slipped while stepping on the stirrup without noticing.
He staggered and barely stood still, his face as pale as paper.
At this moment, a thought broke into his mind so strongly that he had no choice but to believe it.
Perhaps, Xizhi...had already separated from him.
......
It was half an hour later when Lu Yunzheng returned to the villa.
Gu Xizhi was leaning on the bed. When she heard the noise outside the yard, she slowly sat up straight.
The footsteps got closer, and it was indeed Lu Yunzheng who pushed the door open and walked in.
He was seen standing in the outer hall, taking off his outer robe and shaking off the cold air on his body.
Seeing this, Gu Xizhi stepped forward in her slippers and said softly, "Yun Zheng, are you cold? Come over here and warm yourself up."
Lu Yunzheng took a long, deep breath, and finally suppressed the turmoil in his heart. He raised his head as if nothing had happened.
He saw Xizhi walking towards him in the warm candlelight.
It was still those familiar features, and it was still the person he had been thinking about, but at this moment, he couldn't help feeling a little sad.
I feel like crying but I have no tears.
After leaving the clinic just now, he rode his horse back frantically, eager to find out clearly how many things Xizhi had hidden from him and what she was doing behind his back?
His heart was filled with anger at having been deceived, but when he arrived outside the courtyard and saw the candle that was left for him in the courtyard, he hesitated again.
He knew in his heart that once he opened his mouth, he and Xizhi would never be able to go back to the way they were before, and given Xizhi's scheming, he might not be able to get the truth from her.
Do you want him to threaten and force Xizhi? But this is the woman he loves most, the one he has devoted his whole life to...
He hadn't even figured out how to deal with the truth that might come out.
Everything has been going wrong for him since his rebirth. He has nothing but Xizhi. If he loses Xizhi too, he will really become a joke.
This thought made Lu Yunzheng hesitate.
He hesitated several times, and finally turned his horse around and drove into the darkness again.
After wandering back and forth for half an hour, the cold wind finally helped him regain some sanity.
He couldn't help but wonder, since Prince Xiang reminded him that Xizhi had found a good doctor, why didn't he tell him directly where Xizhi's good doctor came from?
If it was Prince Xiang who sent him himself, he could just tell him directly, and he would be grateful.
If not, Prince Xiang's vague words meant that he wanted him to investigate?
After leaving the Shen family, he is Xizhi's only support. Who else can help Xizhi, or even find a good doctor for her?
He carefully recalled everything Xizhi had done and said during these days, and found only one thing that was the most bizarre.
On the day of the Lantern Festival, Xizhi's hand was broken by Shen Jiasui. Not only did he not pursue the matter, but he even inexplicably mentioned the trip to the Jokhang Temple when explaining.
He had almost forgotten about it.
What happened when Xizhi accidentally entered the Zunrongbao Temple?
Could it be that something really happened, which is why Xizhi was so cautious and didn't even dare to care about having her wrist broken by Shen Jiasui?
You have to know that on that day, all those in the honorable temple were royal relatives. No matter who Xizhi had a relationship with, it was probably not just a matter of ordinary interests.
Moreover, Xizhi had kept it a secret from him for so long...
The more Lu Yunzheng thought about it, the more horrified he felt.
In his second life, he should have been the one who had the foresight to control everything, but now it seems that he is the one who is kept in the dark.
The cold night wind rushed into his cuffs and collar, as if seeping into the cracks between his bones.
Everyone made fun of Lu Yunzheng, but he was so stupid that he didn't even realize it, and ended up in complete failure.
At this time, Gu Xizhi had already come to hold Lu Yunzheng's hand. The cold and rough palm made Gu Xizhi shiver.
"Yun Zheng, your hands are so cold."
Gu Xizhi said this, frowning and placing her warm cheek into Lu Yunzheng's palm.
Lu Yunzheng lowered his eyes and looked at Gu Xizhi's tender appearance, but a chill rose in his heart.
Can such affection and thoughtfulness be faked?
He didn't want to believe it.
But now, it seems that he has no choice but to believe it.
Lu Yunzheng moved his lips, and the question almost rushed out of his throat, but in the end it turned into:
"Xizhi, am I useless or am I unable to..."
Gu Xizhi hurriedly shook her head, "Yun Zheng, it's okay. As long as you don't mind that I lost a hand, I won't force you."
She took the initiative to snuggle in Lu Yunzheng's arms.
Lu Yunzheng stretched out his hand and held Gu Xizhi's shoulders. At that moment, his heart felt swollen and sour, as if it was being pricked by a needle. Then it slowly became cold and hard, mixed with resentment and resentment.
They are all plotting against him...
Dad was right to scold him. He was a disgraceful idiot who had brought himself to this state.
In the past he was ignorant, stupid, arrogant, and self-righteous.
But from now on, I can no longer...
