Chapter 114: What is the difference and Confrontation
Lin Chujiu is very determined to see Xiao Tianyao. So, although Doctor Wu doesn’t want to agree with her, he couldn’t find a reason to stop her. With her current situation, Doctor Wu and Housekeeper Cao understand that Lin Chujiu must really prove her innocence if she can. Or else, what will the difference between staying alive or dead?
Housekeeper Cao was uncertain, so he looked at Doctor Wu and ask: “Can w.a.n.gfei’s body hold it?”
“No.” Doctor Wu simply said. Because of that, Housekeeper Cao prepared himself to persuade Lin Chujiu to take it slowly. And just wait for her body to get slightly better before she goes and sees Xiao Tianyao. But, Doctor Wu suddenly added: “However, w.a.n.gfei herself is a doctor. She knows more than anyone else her condition. There must be a reason why she had to make such a decision.” Because if there’s none, who would be willing to risk their life ah?
Even if her body can hold it. Her injuries are very serious, so every step she will take is like walking over the knife. And normally, a person wouldn’t want to experience that.
“Rest a.s.sured, I will not die. At least, not now.” Lin Chujiu also gave Housekeeper Cao an a.s.surance. But, as for whether her injuries wouldn’t aggravate, no need to ask, because… …
The moment she moves, her injuries are bound to increase. However, if she won’t to do this, she won’t be able to recuperate at ease.
Housekeeper Cao no longer said a word and just quietly retreated. Doctor Wu stayed behind and change Lin Chujiu’s dressing. And while he’s still at it, he boiled her some medicine.
After some inspection, Housekeeper Cao finally arrived at Jing Tian Courtyard. And then, he reported Lin Chujiu’s condition to Xiao Tianyao.
“w.a.n.gfei woke up. But, w.a.n.gfei insisted to see w.a.n.gye.”
“Very well, let Doctor Wu continue taking care of her.” Xiao Tianyao nodded his head in satisfaction. But as for his reply in meeting her: “Benw.a.n.g doesn’t want to see her.” She’s heavily injured, but want to get up? Isn’t she simply courting death?
If it is like the usual, Housekeeper Cao will no longer say anything. But this time, he couldn’t help but say: “w.a.n.gye, if you won’t let w.a.n.gfei see you. w.a.n.gfei won’t be able to recuperate at ease.”
Xiao Tianyao didn’t immediately answer, he thinks for a while and then nodded his head: “Carried her over.”
“Yes, this lowly one will obey.” Housekeeper Cao wanted to left immediately, but then he heard Xiao Tianyao’s voice: “Pack away the things inside the room next to benw.a.n.g.”
Housekeeper Cao’s footsteps stop, he wanted to make things clear but then he just secretly whispered inside his heart: w.a.n.gye, what do you mean?
w.a.n.gye cares about w.a.n.gfei, but he doesn’t care if she dies? He doesn’t care about w.a.n.gfei, but he wanted to clean up the room next to him for her? Isn’t he a bit contradicting?
Housekeeper Cao shook his head and just turned around to leave. Then, he arranged two guards to carried Lin Chujiu and bring her inside the Jing Tian Courtyard.
Housekeeper Cao’s actions were very simple. But, there were two people that make a big issue about it. Divine Doctor Mo learn about it fast. He hesitated for a moment, but then he decided to go to his daughter’s place because he always felt that there is something wrong.
Lin Chujiu knows medicine and she is wise. She stopped Xiao Tianyao’s treatment so suddenly, but she was so firm about it. So, maybe she really found something wrong.
“Yuer, that day, what did you do ah?” Divine Doctor Mo ask straight to the point.
Mo Yuer’s eyes flash, she wanted to shake her head but when she saw Divine Doctor Mo’s moisten eyes, she eventually nodded her head. Seeing her father confused, Mo Yuer busily explained: “Dad, I just did something small. It wouldn’t hurt w.a.n.gye, she’s just exaggerating.”
“You silly!” Divine Doctor Mo almost wanted to vomit blood, but then he snapped and asked: “What did you do?”
“I, I’ve only wiped a little psychedelic (hallucination) drug to the white jade hairpin. Dad, you and I know that even if w.a.n.gye had a contact with that drug, he won’t be affected. That drug will only be effective to Lin Chujiu.” Mo Yuer’s shoulders shudder, but her body is quite straight and her voice is very clear. Proving that she is sure of it.
Although Divine Doctor Mo was angry, he knows very well that what was done is done. So, nothing will change even if he nags at her. He can now only fix it, so he asks: “Where is that thing?”
“The white jade hairpin? Dad, rest a.s.sured, I’ve already dealt with it.” Mo Yuer said with a little pride: “I have two exactly the same white jade hairpin. Xiao w.a.n.gfu’s people don’t know it. Dad, you look… …”
Mo Yuer stood up and brought out the same white jade hairpin in her dresser. Divine Doctor Mo looked at it, and when he saw that there is no trace of the said medicine. He nodded his head in satisfaction. And while he’s still there, he looks all over the room of his daughter. He only left when he didn’t find any abnormality.
But, just when Divine Doctor Mo went out the room, he met Lin Chujiu’s eyes who’s being carried with the sedan chair. And when their eyes collide, the two of them had a tacit understanding that they might not see each other again.
Divine Doctor Mo who has unchanged facial expression left calmly. Lin Chujiu who has unchanged posture let the guardsmen carried her far… …

Inside the house, Xiao Tianyao was already sitting in his wheelchair and just waiting to hear the announcement outside. Xiao Tianyao didn’t open up his eyes, he just gently tapped his fingertip to the handrails.
“w.a.n.gye, w.a.n.gfei had come to see you.” The guard from outside announces. And soon as he heard him, he said: “Let her come!”
When the guardsmen entered, their footsteps were steady and has no sound. And even right after they put down Lin Chujiu, they just quietly turned away and closed the door.
“w.a.n.gye, this consort can’t pay her respect, please excuse this consort’s rudeness.” Lin Chujiu said indifferently. Her face has no trace of any emotion, but her eyes look calm and scary. Her lips have no trace of blood, but whenever she opens her mouth, her voice trembled because of the pain.
Seeing her pale complexion, Xiao Tianyao’s eyebrows unconsciously wrinkled and said: “You seek benw.a.n.g for what?” She just woke up, but she’s very anxious to move her body, so does that mean she doesn’t want to keep her life?
“This consort seek w.a.n.gye.” Lin Chujiu is not stupid enough to ask Xiao Tianyao directly because she knows he won’t agree: “To ask for his permission to check Miss Mo’s room.”
“You haven’t given up?” His people had checked that place countless of time. So, what else does Lin Chujiu want to do?
“Yes, this consort won’t give up. I know I was right, so why would I help those people hide their fault?” Her voice is weak but still revealed her firm decision.
“You are right? That’s why you stopped Doctor Mo’s treatment and almost made benw.a.n.g’s legs completely destroyed? So, do you want benw.a.n.g to thank you?” His words were taunting, but there was no trace of mockery.
Lin Chujiu doesn’t feel guilty, so she said: “I don’t know the side effect of the dragon soul. But, I know, that if w.a.n.gye stayed there and continue the treatment. You will not only lose your legs but also your life.”
“You … … sure?” If its still like before, Xiao Tianyao will not listen to Lin Chujiu.
But right now, if what she said was not true, then why would Lin Chujiu dare to appear in front of him? Why would she dare to go and check Mo Yuer’s room? Lin Chujiu is very smart, so she knows very clearly that if she didn’t find anything to Mo Yuer’s room. Her fate will end up more miserable. And even if he pardon her, Divine Doctor Mo and Mo Yuer will not.
“If I am not sure, why would I let myself hit your bathtub? w.a.n.gye, did you think that I didn’t know I might get hurt?” This is the first time Lin Chujiu speak with a smile after she entered the room, but… …
Seeing this smile, Xiao Tianyao couldn’t feel happy. Instead, he felt very uncomfortable, because he felt like this woman in front of him is not the same… …
