Chapter 1760: Chapter 1757: Hiding Something

“Take one after finishing the medicine; it’ll make you feel better too.” Ye Muyu didn’t expose his little schemes, having gotten used to it.

“I know, I know, why are you so naggy.” Lu Sangqi said disdainfully.

Ye Muyu squinted: “Well, since I’m already a mother of three children, of course, I’m naggy. Unlike you, with just yourself to feed and no one else going hungry, you don’t understand this joy.”

Lu Sangqi: “… Do you still remember I’m a patient?”

“Of course.” Ye Muyu replied with a cheerful smile.

Lu Sangqi was at a loss for words and could only huff.

Ye Muyu teased him from the side: “You’re not young anymore, better find a wife early, then when you’re sick, someone can take care of you. Look at you, when feeling lonely or cold at night, isn’t it just you alone? So pitiful.”

Lu Sangqi rubbed his ears, unable to listen anymore: “I can find someone easily, it’s just that I don’t take it lightly.”

“Really?” The tone was full of skepticism.

Lu Sangqi decisively changed the topic: “Anyway, I think the injuries aren’t serious, just need ten days to half a month to recover. You don’t have to run over to see me; once is enough. I don’t want Chu Heng visiting and giving me the cold shoulder.”

“Hey, don’t forget, it was my Ah Heng who saved you. Young man, don’t be ungrateful.” Ye Muyu reminded him, dissatisfied.

Lu Sangqi rolled his eyes but didn’t retort: “I know, I know.”

“Anyway, it’s inconvenient lately. For consultation at your place, you’ll have to find other doctors. The resident doctor here has good medical skills too. If not, I’ll ask my grandfather for help.”

Ye Muyu saw he still had energy, guessing that the injury wasn’t too severe, and felt relieved.

Waving her hand, she said: “No need. My family doesn’t require an imperial physician to come for a consultation. Otherwise, the Imperial Censors would impeach us.”

“Those Imperial Censors have nothing to do. They meddle in tiny matters yet ignore real wrongdoers.” Lu Sangqi’s disdain was evident, without any disguise.

“Alright, it’s their way of survival. Besides, truly upright officials can’t survive in the official circle. As for the scoundrels you mentioned, it’s just a matter of time before they get their comeuppance.” Ye Muyu casually comforted.

Lu Sangqi didn’t say much, just lowered his gaze, hiding the dark glint in his eyes.

“Okay, I won’t disturb your rest. If something comes up, just find me. Just remember, I’m like your sister.” Ye Muyu stood up, leaving the meal box specially prepared for his dietary treatment.

Lu Sangqi was speechless at her final remark, stubbornly retorting: “Since when did you become my sister? Don’t misuse seniority.”

Ye Muyu waved aside, not arguing, turned, and left the room.

After the curtain fell, shaking for a while, Lu Sangqi muttered: “Could I be your brother? Someone even my real father doesn’t care about.”

His eyes flashed with sarcasm, gazing nonchalantly at the ceiling, and after a while, he withdrew his gaze, picked up a piece of wax paper, pulled out a candy from it, and slowly put it in his mouth, biting with a crunch.

Ye Muyu didn’t immediately return to the house but instead checked on the business and sent design plans to the workshop.

Getting on the carriage, Ye Muyu said to Su Mei: “Tell Zhu San and the others to keep an eye on Lu Sangqi.”
