Chapter 2208: Love Interest

It was understandable that Miss Lan couldn’t come, but it was a missed opportunity for them to meet. Qi wasn’t getting any younger, and it was time for him to settle down, so Ms. Fang wasn’t worried. However, she did express her dissatisfaction with Qi, finding him unreliable. She believed he should have made an effort to bring Miss Lan back for everyone to meet her!

Most importantly, he needed to introduce Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan to that girl.

Ms. Fang had so much faith in her son and daughter-in-law that she was certain once they met, everything would be fine. Otherwise, she feared her son might end up with the wrong person!

Despite hearing from Qi that Miss Lan was decent, as her biological mother, she still fretted a bit.

She had spent the entire night tossing and turning, consumed by these thoughts. One moment, she felt her youngest son had finally found love and when he married, her family would be complete. The next moment, worry for Miss Lan crept in… The more she dwelled on it, the more muddled she felt. Qi leaving again in the morning only aggravated Ms. Fang further.

After soothing his mother, Qi breathed a sigh of relief. Thankfully, he hadn’t divulged everything to her. Otherwise, he’d likely face a scolding and cause her undue worry.

Speaking of Lan Die, it led to Tang Fanghua.

Although Tang Fanghua hadn’t been the one to save Qi’s life that day; it was Lan Die.

Lan Die, who gathered herbs in the northwest, had rescued Qi. After detoxifying him, she discovered she needed two more herbs to completely rid him of the poison. Coincidentally, she knew the whereabouts of these herbs.

Thus, she gently placed him amidst the grass and ventured off to gather herbs.

Upon her return, more than an hour later, Lan Die was taken aback to find Qi missing.

It was implausible for Qi to depart on his own; he must have been taken by his comrades.

With a single glance, Lan Die discerned that Qi’s wounds were not typical. In a borderland like this, she could easily surmise his identity.

This area was relatively secure; those beyond the borders lacked the courage to pursue him here. Thankfully, she had already treated over half of the poison in his body. Unless tended to by an inept physician, complete recovery was assured.

Her worries dissolved.

Later, fortuitously, due to her exceptional medical prowess, she was summoned to the military camp to attend to General Xu’s injuries. Impressed by her skills, General Xu and his associates appointed her as their military physician.

This arrangement facilitated Lan Die’s herb-gathering ventures. With the support of General Xu’s men, she could collect herbs with assistance and protection, ensuring her safety.

Lan Die acquiesced.

During that period, Tang Fanghua had already settled contentedly in Guiwu City with her two maidservants, basking in the acclaim of being Qi’s rescuer. She harbored optimistic aspirations for the future.

Furthermore, her maids inadvertently spread the word of her heroic deed as Qi’s savior.

Lan Die had recognized Qi as the person she had saved from the outset. Yet, she harbored no penchant for flaunting her accomplishments. While she harbored no ill will toward Tang Fanghua’s actions, it remained a fact that Tang Fanghua had aided Qi. Tang Fanghua believed she had rescued Qi, so disputing her claim would be futile.

Lan Die remained silent.

After all, she harbored no inclination to vie for recognition.
