Chapter 115 Recovery
It's bad enough that I'm not happy eating now, but I also have to see Xie Qingran's cold face. What kind of situation is this!
He suddenly put down his chopsticks on the table: "Xie Qingran, I'll be frank with you. I hope you can treat Yue'er better. Don't forget, she's your sister. How could you lay a hand on her and hit her?"
"Who told you that?" Xie Qingran tilted her head and looked at Lu Jinzhi with some curiosity. "Did Xie Hanyue say that I hit her? When did she tell you that? Was it in front of everyone or in private? You two, a man and a woman, were alone together. Isn't it inappropriate for you to be doing this in private?"
"My parents have already taken care of this matter, so it's not your place to waste your breath on me!"
Xie Qingran rolled her eyes, her face covered in pimples, clearly showing her disgust!
Seeing her like this, Lu Jinzhi realized that he really couldn't argue with her for a moment!
His eyebrows furrowed tightly, and he said irritably, "Stop giving me this nonsense, did you lay a hand on me or not!"
"No."
Xie Qingran dismissed the matter outright, simply denying everything.
Anyway, there's no evidence for this, so what can she do if she just doesn't admit it?
Seeing Xie Qingran like this, Lu Jinzhi was stunned. Then, as if provoked, he stood up abruptly, gritting his teeth and saying, "You're still trying to argue! I really don't understand what's wrong with you, how you've become like this. If I had known you were like this, I shouldn't have let you come back at all!"
"Get out of my way!"
"You're the one who sent me back?"
Xie Qingran finally lost her temper and threw the chopsticks in her hand at Lu Jinzhi's face.
"Who do you think you are? Whether I'm in the capital or on the estate, whether I come back or not, is all up to you?"
"How shameless!"
With that, Xie Qingran stood up, walked to the door, and pointed outside: "Get out!"
Now, Lu Jinzhi was utterly humiliated. His face changed instantly, and he gritted his teeth, glaring fiercely at Xie Qingran: "You, you're being insolent! How could you say such a thing to me!"
"I've already said everything, what are you going to do about it?" Xie Qingran became quite domineering, knowing that he wouldn't understand her if she tried to talk to him nicely anyway.
Seeing the intense tension between the two, Zhao Yuanqi couldn't help but burst out laughing. Pointing at Lu Jinzhi, he said with a smile, "Haha, I remember you were no match for Qingran when we were kids. I didn't expect you to still be so useless now that you're grown up. You're no match for her at all, hahaha!"
"How can the young general still laugh?"
"Look at how unreasonable she is!"
Lu Jinzhi really didn't understand what was so funny about this.
Zhao Yuanqi stood up, glanced at Xie Qingran, and said indifferently, "Alright, since you're in a bad mood today, we'll leave now!"
"But you must remember, we grew up together!" After saying that, Zhao Yuanqi, just like when they were kids, tugged at Xie Qingran's braid before leaving with a grin.
Zhao Yuanqi is just that kind of person; he seems sunny and cheerful, but in fact he's a pervert!
Thinking of Zhao Yuanqi's despicable methods, Xie Qingran felt extremely disgusted.
She took a deep breath and looked at Gu Xiangyuan apologetically: "I'm sorry, I've dragged you into this."
"I don't think so, it's their fault."
Gu Xiangyuan smiled and began to eat heartily. Sure enough, without the eyesore of others, meals became much more enjoyable.
Seeing this, Shen Wenyuan gently put down his chopsticks to indicate that he was full.
He stared at Xie Qingran expectantly: "How come I didn't know you were so amazing?"
"It's not too late for you to know now!"
"What's wrong? Is there something you're unhappy about?"
Xie Qingran snorted and raised an eyebrow at him.
"I have no complaints, I'm very satisfied."
"Well, I'm full too, so I'll head back now."
After saying that, Shen Wenyuan immediately got up and walked outside.
He originally thought Xie Qingran's attitude towards him was already very bad, but he never expected that she was even worse to others and had already been very polite to him.
"I see all these people surrounding you, they probably like you, right?"
Gu Xiangyuan had drunk some wine, and she started speaking without thinking.
Seeing Gu Xiangyuan's flushed cheeks, Xie Qingran sighed helplessly, then said with a smile, "Of course not, you saw it yourself, they hate me, they don't like me at all. I think they all wish I would die soon!"
Hearing this, Gu Xiangyuan nodded: "This Lu Jinzhi has always been arrogant, and I don't really like him. But General Zhao is quite nice! I think he's very accommodating to you!"
Should we give way?
He just wanted to play the long game and catch a big fish.
Seeing Gu Xiangyuan's silly appearance, Xie Qingran didn't know what to say for a moment. She just smiled and instructed her subordinates to send her back safely.
Two imperial physicians accompanied Xie Qingran this time. After the last acupuncture treatment, her ears were noticeably better than before, but they were not fully healed yet, so she needed to have another acupuncture treatment.
This time, Xie Qingran was already mentally prepared, so she didn't need anyone to tie her up anymore. She just sat in the chair, her hands gripping the armrests tightly, and endured it.
After the acupuncture session, Xie Qingran looked as if she had been pulled out of the water, and she looked extremely pitiful.
Seeing her like this, Physician Zhao breathed a sigh of relief: "It seems that a third time is not needed now. Congratulations, Miss Xie! You've suffered so much!"
"It's alright, thank you, Imperial Physician. You've all gone to so much trouble." Xie Qingran smiled faintly and gave them a generous reward.
These are all imperial physicians. Building good relationships with them would be beneficial for her. Xie Qingran knew that she had no connections in the capital, so if she wanted to take revenge, she had to seize everything around her that she could!
Thinking of this, Xie Qingran's smile towards the two imperial physicians became even more sincere.
Here, the two imperial physicians had just left the manor when Hongshan took them to the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion.
The two men, seeing Xiao Jue's fierce expression, knelt on the ground, trembling, and some even dared not speak.
“Just answer whatever I ask you.”
"Miss Xie, how are you feeling?"
Xiao Jue snorted and got straight to the point!
"Miss Xie has fully recovered and will not have any aftereffects, so please rest assured, Your Highness," Physician Zhao replied tremblingly, not daring to look him in the eye.
