Chapter 33 Are you threatening me?
Yun Zhao is a military doctor.
She could naturally see that what Chen Tingting gave to Xie Jingmo was the best thousand-year-old ginseng, while what the villagers gave was only ginseng powder worth a few coins or an ounce of silver.
"No, I don't like drinking this." Yun Zhao said proactively.
At this moment, Chen Tingting's eyes were full of dissatisfaction when she looked at Yun Zhao.
Xie Jingmo grabbed Yun Zhao's hand and held it in front of her, "Drink it!"
Chen Tingting was already angry.
Yun Zhao really didn't understand why Xie Jingmo was so hard on him and why he had to find trouble with him.
Chen Tingting is the daughter of a wealthy family. Her father is in charge of the Ministry of Revenue, and she is just a nobody. Whenever Chen Tingting writes a letter home, her father and brothers will be in trouble.
It's not worth it for a man who doesn't love you.
"I said, drink it!" But Xie Jingmo was very stubborn. He grabbed Yun Zhao's wrist and said to him in a strong and commanding tone: "Don't make me say it a third time."
Chen Tingting stood aside, tears in her eyes.
"Jing Mo, what do you mean?! This is a token of my love for you, but you gave it to someone else!"
Yun Zhao felt a headache. She shook off Xie Jingmo's hand, walked to the other side, and continued to treat the wounds of the injured.
Chen Tingting was still standing there crying, and Xie Jingmo didn't comfort her.
Yun Zhao was becoming more and more confused about Xie Jingmo. This man's moods were so fickle that it was really hard to understand him.
Once things here are over, she will leave immediately.
Chen Tingting cried all day. Xie Jingmo frowned in annoyance. "Miss Chen, I thought you knew very well why you came to the frontier."
Chen Tingting stopped crying in shock.
"Jing Mo."
Xie Jingmo's eyes were cold and stern. "One can't be too greedy, right?"
Chen Tingting pursed her lips and tears fell.
She lost control and said, "But I love you, very much!"
Xie Jingmo's eyes grew colder and colder, until there was no emotion in them at all.
"Ms. Chen, I thought we had a tacit understanding with each other."
Chen Tingting stared at Xie Jingmo in a daze.
"If I choose you, it won't be because of love, not now, and not in the future. You came here simply because my father and mother like you, that's all. However, if you still want more, I really can't give it to you, so don't waste your energy."
Xie Jingmo put down the bowl of ginseng soup after he finished speaking. "I won't drink this soup. The border is bitterly cold and can't tolerate people who are too noble."
Xie Jingmo left after saying this.
Let Chen Tingting cry uncontrollably.
Chen Tingting cried for a long time, but Xie Jingmo didn't come to comfort her.
She felt that Xie Jingmo was really tired of her. She was very scared, but she didn't know what to do.
She clenched her fists and walked to Yun Zhao's side.
"Now that Jing Mo despises me, are you satisfied?"
"Yun Zhao, don't forget, your family still has people in the capital. If you dare to argue with me, you know the consequences."
Chen Tingting finally stopped pretending.
Yun Zhao did not respond to Chen Tingting immediately. She lowered her head to bandage the villagers, half-kneeling on the ground, her clothes covered in dust.
Chen Tingting took a step back in disgust, fearing that dust would fall on the hem of her elegant skirt.
After everything was settled, Yun Zhao stood up. She gently brushed off the dust on her body and stood there with her back straight, just like when they first met, neither humble nor arrogant.
"Ms. Chen, everyone has something they care about. If you overdo it, you'll suffer backlash."
Yun Zhao stood in the wind, his thin body shrouded in loose clothes, making a rustling sound.
Her expression was calm, but Chen Tingting could see the warning in it.
"Are you threatening me?"
Yun Zhao smiled and wiped the blood off his hands with a cloth. "I can't threaten anyone. I only have one worthless life. Over the years, I have defended the territory in the army, and I also practiced martial arts in my spare time. Miss Chen, everyone cares about you. You have parents too, right?"
After Yun Zhao finished speaking, he threw the blood-stained cloth aside and went to the side to do his work.
Chen Tingting stood there for a long time. She looked at Yuanzhao's back in disbelief. She couldn't believe that she was actually threatened!
Until the evening, Chen Tingting still couldn't get over the situation.
She showed weakness to Xie Jingmo and complained about her conversation with Yun Zhao in the afternoon.
Xie Jingmo frowned and called Yun Zhao over, "Apologize."
Yun Zhao was able to bend and stretch, "I'm sorry."
Chen Tingting curled her lips. She didn't feel that there was much apology in Yun Zhao's words, but she also understood that Xie Jingmo was not too indulgent towards her. She had gone too far and in the end she was the one who was embarrassed.
She had no choice but to give up. Finally, she said to Xie Jingmo, "For Jingmo's sake, forget it."
Yun Zhao was not interested in such childish tricks.
She doesn't care about the verbal concessions.
But Xie Jingmo knew that Yun Zhao was no pushover, and her warning to Chen Tingting was definitely not just verbal.
When it comes to the people he cares about, Yun Zhao is always willing to risk his life.
"Don't provoke her." Xie Jingmo said to Chen Tingting indifferently.
Chen Tingting blinked pitifully, "Jing Mo, Doctor Yun is so fierce. I thought she was always so gentle. It turns out that someone as good-looking as Zhang is also good at pretending."
Chen Tingting was talking to herself and didn't notice that Xie Jingmo's cold gaze fell on her for a second.
In the evening, Xie Jingmo walked to Yun Zhao's side.
"You have a bad temper."
Yun Zhao knew that Xie Jingmo was talking about what she had warned Chen Tingting about during the day.
Yun Zhao ate wild fruits and said, "I apologized."
Xie Jingmo sneered, "But have you apologized in your heart? Yun Zhao, don't let me know that you did something to Chen Tingting."
Yun Zhao pursed his lips.
What can she do to Chen Tingting when she is leaving?
Xie Jingmo really protected Chen Tingting and would talk to her at night about what happened during the day.
Over the years, what has she ever argued with others about?
She had never been obsessed with anything except him.
Yun Zhao felt a tightness in his chest and was about to leave, but Xie Jingmo grabbed his hand.
Yun Zhao frowned.
Just as she was about to speak, she felt a chill on her wrist and froze.
Xie Jingmo took the herbal medicine that the old man had given her last night and applied it on her wrist.
Chen Tingting watched the two people standing in the moonlight from afar, like people standing in the wall.
She clenched her fists and waited until Xie Jingmo left before walking to Yun Zhao's side. "You really still like Xie Jingmo!"
"Yun Zhao, you're quite good at pretending."
Yun Zhao moved her wrists and sighed, "After returning to the barracks from here, I will leave the Xie family army and go directly to Lincheng."
Chen Tingting paused and looked at Yun Zhao with distrust.
"real?"
Yun Zhao said, "Of course. Lincheng is a hundred miles away from here. Once I leave this time, I won't be back, and I won't see the general again. Miss Chen, I still say the same thing as before. It's not worth it for me to annoy the general."
Chen Tingting was silent. "You want to leave. If Jing Mo disagrees, what will you do?"
