Chapter 8 The Unexpected



"I," An Tingyu pointed at herself, "but I have a condition."

In modern times, she inherited her grandfather's medical skills, and even surpassed them. As long as she said she could cure a disease, there was absolutely nothing she couldn't cure it. But she was not a philanthropist, especially in this ancient time when there was no one to rely on, she had to make a living for herself.

"You think you can cure it?" Liu Yunsheng didn't believe it at all. "Even the genius doctor Yang Qingwei and the most famous doctor in the palace, Zhong Taiyi, can't do anything about it. How could you possibly do that?"

If someone said that An Tianyu had become smarter, he would believe it because he had seen it with his own eyes. Although he didn't know why An Tianyu had become like this before and after, medicine was a profound subject that required learning to succeed. She was a fool before, but now she had become smart, but this did not mean that her "awake" medical skills would run into her head on their own.

"What do you want?" Jing Aotian did not question like Liu Yunsheng, he just asked calmly.

"Aotian, you don't believe what she said, do you?" Liu Yunsheng rolled his eyes. Was he, his master and friend, desperate to seek medical help? He should have chosen the right person, right? Someone like An Tianyu, who had been an idiot for years and had just 'woke up', shouldn't he have believed her?

Jing Aotian didn't say anything, just looked at An Tingyu and motioned her to state the conditions.

"Three shops, ten thousand taels of gold."

"An Tianyu, you're asking for too much!" Liu Yunsheng frowned. Putting aside her medical skills, her conditions alone—a sky-high price, right? Did she even know what the current store prices were like? Ten thousand taels of gold! She was really daring enough to open one.

An Tingyu chuckled lightly, her eyebrows raised lazily, "Isn't King Jing's leg worth ten thousand taels of gold to those three shops? Also, please call me An Tingyu from now on. An Tianyu represents incompetence, cowardice, stupidity, and ignorance, and I am no longer the fool I used to be."

"An Tingyu?" Jing Aotian's sharp eyes flashed with contemplation. "Then let's call her An Tingyu! Your name is not an important issue to me. As for your conditions, I can agree to them, but what makes you believe me?"

"Your legs should be numb, right?" An Tingyu raised her red lips slightly, and raised a beautiful arc, "It will work immediately."

After saying that, An Tingyu's slender little hand made a graceful arc, and several silver needles formed a row in her hand. Without waiting for their reaction, An Tingyu had quickly dropped the silver needles on Jing Aotian's legs...

"Hey, you..."

Liu Yunsheng was about to scold An Tingyu, but as soon as he opened his mouth, Jing Aotian made a dull sound and frowned tightly.

"Aotian, what's wrong with you?" Liu Yunsheng asked nervously. Before he could speak, Liu Yunsheng glared at An Tingyu, "An Tianyu... No, An Tingyu, what did you do to Aotian? Why did he..."

"Yunsheng, please don't be rude," Jing Aotian said, "My legs... hurt. I haven't felt pain in a long time. If there's pain, it means there's still hope, right?"

"Aotian, are you really in pain?" Liu Yunsheng's eyes widened in surprise. "I remember Doctor Zhong said that your legs were numb and necrotic, so there was no way to save them, but..."

"Are you really in pain?" Finally, Liu Yunsheng confirmed again with doubt.

Jing Aotian nodded. Although he was in pain, he smiled, which was a rare occurrence for him.

An Tingyu was stunned by that pure and charming smile, and thought to herself, what a monster, he is so handsome and unreasonable, and it is really unfair for him to show such an innocent smile.

As the sky gradually darkened, An Tingyu and Jing Aotian made another appointment and then left Dengtian Tower.

Here, after An Tingyu left, Liu Yunsheng complained: "So you guys have already met before? Why didn't you tell me earlier? I thought you hadn't met before!"

"how?"

Jing Aotian ignored his words and did not say anything explicitly, but Liu Yunsheng knew that Jing Aotian was referring to An Tingyu.

"It's pretty much what you thought. They're very alert, and there aren't many people in Tianmen who can spot me following them. But..." Liu Yunsheng hesitated, finally saying, "Aotian, An Tianyu... No, An Tingyu is a bit smart, and her identity allows her to hide things perfectly, but is it really okay to give the things to her? We don't know An Tingyu at all."

"It's precisely because I don't understand that I can't predict it. If it's someone the opponent can guess, then why would I need to hand it over to someone else? Wouldn't it be faster to just hand it over to the opponent?"

"Having said that, there are too many doubts about An Tingyu. Whether it's her sudden intelligence, her martial arts, or even her medical skills, all of this makes people doubtful. What if she gives the thing to that person..."

"Alright, stop talking," Jing Aotian interrupted him. "There's no such thing as a miracle. As long as An Tingyu doesn't mention the origin of the jade pendant to anyone, that person will never imagine that it's right under her nose."

Hearing this, Liu Yunsheng sighed, "Alright! The most dangerous place is the safest. I hope that person will never think that you would give the thing to the person she cares about the most."
