Chapter 145: Chapter 145: Her Fiance Was Looking For Her
"Dear husband..." Ren Liqiu called her husband.
"Hmm... What is it?" Shen Shoushan asked.
"Can I meet my benefactor? I want to thank her for curing me." Ren Liqiu said.
"Of course, I will let you meet him later." Shen Shoushan said.
"Oh, I want to take a bath. I bet I smell bad." Ren Liqiu tried to smell her body.
Shen Shoushan let out a small laugh. "You are not smell bad. I always wipe your body at night."
Ren Liqiu felt embarrassed when she heard about that. Even though they were married, she was still feeling shy when hearing that her husband wiped her body.
"Why don’t you ask a maid to do it?" Ren Liqiu asked.
"Why? I can do it." Shen Shoushan acted like he did not know why Ren Liqiu asked the question.
Ren Liqiu hit Shen Shoushan’s chest softly. When she hit him, her stomach made a sound. Ren Liqiu’s face became red.
"Hmm... You must be hungry after sleeping for a long time. You need to eat. However, you need to eat soft food first. Sir Long said that. He told me that your stomach can not process hard food at this moment." Shen Shoushan said.
"Okay. I will follow what you say." Ren Liqiu agreed.
She knew that Shen Shoushan was thinking for her well being.
"I will let someone prepare the food for you. Just wait for a moment." Shen Shoushan said.
Ren Liqiu nodded. Shen Shoushan then excused himself.
Shen Shoushan ordered his servant to make some food. He told the servant to not tell anyone about that since he still wanted to keep Ren Liqiu regained her consciousness a secret for the time being. That included her parent and that woman.
After that, Shen Shoushan went to Bai Xifeng’s courtyard. Yu Nianzu opened the door to Shen Shoushan.
"Where is your master?" Shen Shoushan asked.
"Young Master is currently doing apothecary at this moment." Yu Nianzu stated.
His young master was teaching his older sister about apothecary.
"I see. Tell me that I want to see him as soon as possible." Shen Shoushan said.
"I will convey your words to my young master." Yu Nianzu said.
"I will leave first." Shen Shoushan stated.
When he was about to turn around, he heard Bai Xifeng’s voice.
"Hmm, Young Master Shen?" Bai Xifeng just came out of the room. freewebnøvel.coɱ
"Sir Long." Shen Shoushan turned back. "Sir Long, my wife is finally wake up."
"Already? I estimate that she will wake up tomorrow. However, it is good news. Meaning, her will to live is very strong." Bai Xifeng smiled.
"Thank you, Sir Long, I don’t know what to do if I don’t meet you at the shop." Shen Shoushan bowed.
"Thank you for believing on me and not judging my age." Bai Xifeng said.
She learned a lot from Ren Liqiu’s case.
...
Mo Shuang was drinking tea while enjoying the flowers in her courtyard. Well, she was actually waiting for the update about Ren Liqiu.
Usually, the servant from Ren Liqiu’s courtyard already came with her report. Mo Shuang wondered why she was not here yet. She was thinking positive. Maybe she had another job to do.
However, after two hours of waiting, Mo Shuang’s patience worn out. She never thought that a servant dare to play her like this.
Mo Shuang then called a maid. She wanted her maid to go and bring the servant here.
Her maid nodded and left. She then came back after one hour of inquiring about the servant. She told Mo Shuang everything what she had found out.
"What? She had been punished and now in the prison?" Mo Shuang asked in surprise.
"Yes, Miss Mo. Apparently she was caught stealing some money. Another servant found her calculating money. It was a lot of money for a maid. Her salary could not reach that amount. They suspected her stealing the money." Her maid reported what she knew to Mo Shuang
Mo Shuang knew. If the servant had been caught and interrogated, the servant might already spilled the bean.
Shen Shoushan probably knew about that servant gave the updates about Ren Liqiu to her. No wonder, Shen Shoushan seemed distant toward her recently.
The servant must be questioned by Shen Shoushan about Mo Shuang’s motive. However, Mo Shuang was not worry about that because she never revealed her motive to the servant. She just told the servant to update Ren Liqiu’s condition. That’s all.
Shen Shoushan began to wary about her. Mo Shuang clicked her tongue and put her tea cup roughly.
Her maid startled and did not dare to make a sound. She knew that her young miss was angry right now. If she did not stay silent, her young miss would turn to her direction and she would suffer under her young miss hand.
Well, Mo Shuang would find the way to get information about the situation.
....
Liu Longwei looked outside. Hou Tingguang was standing behind him.
"Where do you think she is right now?" Liu Longwei suddenly Hou Tingguang.
It took a minute for Hou Tingguang to realize who the third Prince asked about.
"This servant did not know, My Lord." Hou Tingguang responded.
It had been two weeks after Bai Xifeng disappeared. He thought Bai Xifeng went to Sophia Mountain. However, he never meet her there.
When he sent someone to look at her courtyard, the courtyard was protected by an array. He thought she had been locked up by Bai Family and that array made by Bai Family.
So, he entered the array. He knew his way. However, he found out that the courtyard was empty. It seemed the courtyard had been left for a while now.
It seemed his fiance left an array here to cover her disappearance. He laughed. His fiance was indeed interesting. Not like others.
Yes, Liu Longwei, the third Prince was not an idiot, like people thought he was. He had a reason to act like that.
"I will wait here. My fiance, you better come back. Otherwise, I will go and find you. If you get caught, I will never let you go again." Liu Longwei said.
Hou Tingguang gulped. He suddenly was hoping that Bai Xifeng came back sooner.
Bai Xifeng who was currently eating, sneezed out of nowhere. She rubbed her nose.
’Who is saying something bad about me?’ Bai Xifeng thought.
After breakfast, Bai Xifeng went to Ren Liqiu’s courtyard. The servant told her to go to Ren Liqiu’s room.
It seemed Shen Shoushan was here too.
"Liqiu, this is Sir Long, who treated you." Shen Shoushan introduced Ren Liqiu to his wife.
Ren Liqiu smiled and acknowledged Bai Xifeng. She thanked her too.
"Sir Long, nice to meet you. And thank you very much for treating me. My husband told everything." Ren Liqiu expressed her gratitude.
"Well, I am hired by your husband. And he believe me." Bai Xifeng said.
It was true that Shen Shoushan hired her to treat his wife and it was not free. Shen Shoushan promised to pay for her service if she could cure Ren Liqiu.
"Well, I heard from my husband that other pharmacists are hopeless about my condition. Only you know exactly what happened to me and cured me. Sir Long, you are amazing even though you are still young. I know that you will become someone in the future." Ren Liqiu sang high praises to Bai Xifeng.
Shen Shoushan coughed once.
"What happen, my dear husband? Oh, wait. Are you jealous when I am praising another man in front of you?" Ren Liqiu teased Shen Shoushan.
Shen Shoushan did not answer and his red face told her the answer.
Bai Xifeng was full given the dog food by the couple.
"Hmm... let me check your condition first." Bai Xifeng stated.
Bai Xifeng read Ren Liqiu’s pulse. Ren Liqiu was startled. She looked at Bai Xifeng’s face.
"Hmm... Young Madam Shen is recovered well. Just rest. Your strength will return later." Bai Xifeng released Ren Liqiu’s hand.
"Oh, how about the wounds at her feet?" Shen Shoushan asked.
"Hmm... I will take a look at them tomorrow." Bai Xifeng said.
"Sir Long, my husband told me that you are heading to Xianying City. Are you in hurry?" Ren Liqiu asked.
"To be honest, yes. I need to go there to see someone. I will throw the snitches on your feet first. After confirming, it would heal with any problem, only then, I am leaving." Bai Xifeng answered.
