Chapter 168 Jealous
Chapter 168 Jealous
The subordinate nudged Qian Jinyun, who was still in a daze: "Young Master, Young Master! Shall we go?"
Distracted from her thoughts, Qian Jinyun rolled her eyes at her clueless subordinate, walked over to the stall Zhao Yun'er had just looked at, and bought a pomegranate hairpin that Zhao Yun'er had been eyeing.
"Young master, why did you buy the hairpin that the pig-slaughtering woman had her eye on?"
Another subordinate raised an eyebrow and said, "You don't understand. Our young master is playing a high-stakes game, buying things that woman likes..."
Qian Jinyun squinted, feeling that she had finally found a subordinate who understood her thoughts.
He was quite pleased and was about to praise him and give him a raise when he heard the man say, "Buy that woman's favorite things so she has nothing to buy. You're taking revenge on her!"
"Revenge my foot!" Qian Jinyun flicked him on the forehead, angrily saying, "Your wages for this month will be reduced by half!"
"Huh?" The subordinate was on the verge of tears, while his companion gave him a "good luck" look.
Qian Jinyun carefully tucked the pomegranate hairpin into her bosom, raised her eyebrows, and asked the two people behind her, "Haven't you noticed how charming Zhao Yun'er is?"
She was beautiful, with cool and aloof features, and her demeanor and speech exuded a sense of detachment. When selling pork, she was decisive and efficient, without even a furrowed brow; she was truly captivating.
Upon hearing this, the two henchmen envisioned a blood-soaked chopping board, the butcher woman with tightly pursed lips and furrowed brows, tearing flesh and bone apart with each stroke of her knife... Hiss—the two felt a chill run down their spines, thinking that the woman was a demon.
They quickly shook their heads, unable to imagine what the young master meant by charm.
"Forget it, you two wouldn't understand even if I told you."
The two exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with undisguised terror. Could it be that their young master had taken a fancy to the pig-slaughtering woman?
Qian Jinyun turned around, her eyes filled with warning: "By the way, from now on you are not allowed to call her the pig butcher anymore. You must call her Miss Zhao, understand?"
Upon hearing this, the two henchmen's mouths formed an "o" shape.
Qian Jinyun flicked her sleeve and continued walking forward, completely ignoring her two dumbfounded subordinates behind her.
When they arrived at Wujitang, they were told that Doctor Xiao Xiao would not be seeing patients for the next few days.
A hint of doubt flashed in Qian Jinyun's eyes, and he asked for the reason. He was then told that Doctor Xiao Xiao had been bitten by a snake, and now it was his turn to show a look of horror.
"Is Dr. Xiao Xiao alright?"
Bai Qing glanced at Qian Jinyun, whose expression was sincere, and replied, "They will be here in a few days, Young Master Qian, so there's no need to worry."
Qian Jinyun nodded, relieved, and went back to report to her sister.
......
A few days later, Ye Xiaoxiao finally recovered and was able to jump and hop again, so she decided to go to town to practice medicine.
He Jing watched the two people on the oxcart chatting and laughing about pharmacology. A hint of displeasure appeared on his cold face. He stared at the smiling tiger Yu Qingchuan, and a few cold glints flashed in his eyes.
Yu Qingchuan received the other party's sharp gaze, but merely nodded slightly, displaying an air of nonchalance and elegance.
Ye Xiaoxiao noticed He Jing's gaze and caught a glimpse of the jealousy in his eyes. She stood up and jumped out of the car.
She pulled He Jing to a secluded corner where no one could see her, and tiptoed to give him a light peck.
He Jing was not about to let her off so easily. He held her tightly in his arms and kissed her red lips fiercely before stopping.
When Yu Qingchuan saw Ye Xiaoxiao return, a knowing glint flashed in his eyes. He spoke softly, with a casual smile, "I gave Brother He a prescription earlier, which could help him to calm his mind and reduce his desires. He refused."
Upon hearing this, Ye Xiaoxiao couldn't help but burst into laughter.
She really hadn't expected that the two of them had discussed such a topic; she could easily guess the expression on He Jing's face at the time.
The carriage had already started moving slowly. He Jing heard Ye Xiaoxiao's flamboyant laughter, and his dark pupils were filled with overwhelming emotions.
......
Ye Xiaoxiao and the other person arrived at Wuji Hall.
When Manager Yan saw that the two had arrived at the same time, he didn't think much of it; they must have just bumped into each other at the entrance.
"Hello, Uncle Yan, let me introduce this gentleman as..."
"Manager Yan, who is this gentleman next to me...?"
"Xiao Xiao!"
"Good nephew!"
As soon as Manager Yan spoke, the three exchanged glances and realized that they all knew each other, so there was no need for further introductions. They all smiled knowingly.
Only then did Yu Qingchuan realize that Ye Xiaoxiao was actually a resident doctor at Wujitang Clinic. He understood; Miss Ye certainly needed a place to showcase her talents.
Manager Yan suddenly said seriously, "Nephew, come in with me, I have something to ask you."
