Chapter 214 Approach and Probe
In a world rife with conspiracy and power struggles, Yun Mengting and Ling Xuan's revenge scheme quietly brews. As time passes, Shen Yuke's shadow gradually looms over their lives. She is Yun Mengting's cousin, gentle and kind on the outside, but harbors hidden scheming. Jealousy and hatred grow within her, making her Yun Mengting's greatest rival.
"We must find Shen Yuke's weakness as soon as possible so we can defeat her at the crucial moment." Ling Xuan was in the study, his gaze firm and his eyes gleaming with determination. His voice was low and powerful, as if injecting strength into the upcoming challenge.
"I'll use my medical skills to find her weaknesses," Yun Mengting responded, her heart brimming with confidence. As Shen Yuke's cousin, she had a deep understanding of her personality and habits. She knew that Shen Yuke, while seemingly gentle and kind on the surface, was actually scheming and must have hidden weaknesses deep within her heart.
"We can start with her health condition." Ling Xuan pondered, and suddenly an idea came to him. "She has been going to the clinic frequently recently, perhaps because she is not feeling well. We can pretend to be a doctor and get close to her."
"That's a good idea." Yun Mengting nodded in agreement, secretly thinking about her next plan. She knew that only through careful observation and careful planning could she find Shen Yuke's flaws.
In the days that followed, Yun Mengting and Ling Xuan continued training and preparation, improving their skills and team chemistry. Although Yun Mengting wasn't skilled in swordsmanship, her medical skills, especially her use of silver acupuncture, impressed Ling Xuan greatly. Each training session brought them closer together, and their mutual trust grew stronger.
"Mengting, your medical skills are truly amazing." Ling Xuan exclaimed during a practice session. His eyes showed satisfaction and pride, as if he had seen Yun Mengting's growth.
"Thank you for your support." Yun Mengting smiled slightly, her heart filled with gratitude. Ling Xuan's support and encouragement made her feel very excited. She knew that she was not alone and had a partner who was willing to fight for her.
As time went by, Yun Mengting and Ling Xuan's rapport deepened. Not only did they learn from each other's medical skills, but they also built a deep trust in their hearts. Whenever Yun Mengting felt tired, Ling Xuan would silently accompany her, giving her strength. And when Ling Xuan encountered setbacks, Yun Mengting would offer warm words of encouragement, helping him to bounce back.
"We've already tracked Shen Yuke's whereabouts. She goes for a walk in the garden every afternoon," Yun Mengting said during a meeting, her eyes determined. "We can approach her during that time, disguised as a passing doctor, and take the opportunity to observe her condition."
"Good idea." Ling Xuan nodded in agreement, his eyes gleaming with excitement. "We can prepare some medicinal herbs in advance and pretend to be looking for rare herbs to attract her attention."
"I'll prepare a prescription to ensure our plan is foolproof," Yun Mengting said seriously, pondering the details in her mind. She knew that any small mistake could lead to the failure of the plan, so she had to achieve perfection.
A few days later, Yun Mengting and Ling Xuan prepared to meet in Shen Yuke's garden as planned. The sun was shining brightly, a gentle breeze blew, and the flowers in the garden bloomed, emitting a delicate fragrance. Yun Mengting felt a mixture of nervousness and anticipation, as if she were about to face a crucial battle.
"Mengting, remember our plan." Ling Xuan reminded them seriously before leaving, with concern in his eyes.
"I know." Yun Mengting smiled slightly, secretly encouraging herself. She took a deep breath and tried to keep herself calm.
When they entered the garden, Shen Yuke was sitting in a pavilion, looking dazed, as if she was lost in thought. Yun Mengting's heart tightened, knowing this was their chance to get closer.
"Miss, do you need some medicinal herbs?" Yun Mengting pretended to be calm, walked forward with a smile, and her tone was gentle.
Shen Yuke raised her head, her eyes flickering between Yun Mengting and Ling Xuan, as if surprised by their appearance. She frowned slightly, a hint of vigilance flashing in her eyes, but soon regained her composure.
"Who are you?" Shen Yuke's voice was cold, with a hint of disdain.
"We are doctors nearby. We heard that you are quite knowledgeable about herbs, so we came here to ask for your advice." Ling Xuan responded with a smile, his tone full of sincerity.
"Oh? What do you want to ask me?" Shen Yuke's expression relaxed a little, and she seemed to be interested in their identities.
"We heard that you've been feeling unwell lately, and we'd like to ask for some prescriptions for conditioning." Yun Mengting seized the opportunity, her tone revealing concern, "If you're willing, we can provide you with some assistance."
Shen Yuke's gaze lingered on Yun Mengting, as if gauging her sincerity. After some thought, she finally nodded: "Okay, I can listen to your suggestions."
Yun Mengting was excited, knowing that this was their chance to get close to Shen Yuke. She began to ask about Shen Yuke's physical condition in detail, trying to find her weaknesses.
"I've been feeling tired lately and I don't seem to have any energy." Shen Yuke said softly, with a hint of helplessness in her eyes.
"This may be related to your daily routine," Yun Mengting analyzed carefully. "I suggest you try some tonic herbs, such as ginseng and wolfberry, which can help you regain your energy."
Shen Yuke nodded slightly, seeming to agree with Yun Mengting's suggestion. Yun Mengting secretly felt relieved, knowing that she was gradually getting closer to her goal.
"Your medical skills seem good." Shen Yuke's tone softened slightly, with a hint of appreciation in her eyes. "If you are willing, I can let you stay in the mansion permanently to help me recuperate."
"It's our honor." Ling Xuan responded with a smile, secretly glad in his heart. He knew that this would be their chance to get closer to Shen Yuke.
As time went by, Yun Mengting and Ling Xuan gradually built trust in Shen Yuke's house. They took this opportunity to secretly observe Shen Yuke's living habits and behavior, trying to find her weaknesses.
However, as their interactions deepened, Yun Mengting gradually began to sense the complex aura surrounding Shen Yuke. She was no easy opponent, possessing many hidden secrets. Whenever she spoke with Shen Yuke, Yun Mengting felt a strong sense of oppression, as if confronting a lurking beast.
"Mengting, what kind of person do you think Shen Yuke is?" Ling Xuan suddenly asked after a training session, with confusion in his eyes.
"She's very smart and definitely not an easy opponent to deal with." Yun Mengting thought seriously, a hint of caution in her tone, "We must proceed with caution and not take it lightly."
"I understand." Ling Xuan nodded, a determined glint in his eyes. He knew Yun Mengting's intuition was always wrong, and they had to remain vigilant. "We must proceed with caution and not take it lightly."
"I understand." Ling Xuan nodded, a determined glint in his eyes. He knew that Yun Mengting's intuition had never been wrong, and they had to remain vigilant in order to achieve victory in this revenge.
At this moment, Yun Mengting suddenly remembered Lu Xiao. A few months ago, Lu Xiao was rumored to be dead, but she still had doubts. She remembered Shen Yuke mentioning Lu Xiao once by chance, a hint of unease in her tone. Could there be some hidden secret between her and Lu Xiao?
"Ling Xuan, do you think Lu Xiao is really dead?" Yun Mengting asked, with a thoughtful glint in her eyes.
"I have some doubts too." Ling Xuan frowned and said
