Rebirth: The Magic Doctor Girl - C31
After a short exchange of pleasantries, Madame Qi saw Bai Wenhao and couldn’t help but laugh, “This is the eldest son that you always talk about, right? “He is truly handsome, and his knowledge is extraordinary. In the future, he will definitely become a pillar of talent.”
Madame Bai was grinning from ear to ear. In her entire life, she had given birth to this son of hers. Since she was young, she had never given him the slightest bit of trouble.
“He was studying at the White Deer Institute together with Hongxuan. He said that he hadn’t seen Hongxuan go to school for quite a while, and upon hearing that I’ve come to see you, he came along with me.”
Madame Qi nodded and said with a smile, “Hongxuan must be helping Miss Li right now. You should follow the servants to look for him.”
Bai Wenhao nodded with an indifferent expression. However, he clenched his hands into fists inside his sleeves.
As soon as the servant arrived at Lee Miaoyin’s small courtyard, he could smell the fragrance of medicine wafting through the air. As far as his eyes could see, Lee Miaoyin was sweating and kneading pills by the side of the cauldron, and Qi Hongxuan was sitting not too far away, silently looking at Lee Miaoyin. Although the two of them did not interact, it could be seen from Qi Hongxuan’s gaze that there was a clear ambiguous feeling in his gaze.
Xiaotao was the first to notice Bai Wenhao. She nudged Lee Miaoyin, who was focused on making medicine, and indicated for her to look towards the entrance of the courtyard.
Lee Miaoyin raised her gaze as the sunlight shone onto the young man in white. His aura was cold, and his brows were furrowed slightly, as if there was something troubling him.
“Young Master Bai, why are you here?” Lee Miaoyin was slightly suspicious. Was Bai Wenhao looking for her? Or was he looking for Qi Hongxuan?
Qi Hongxuan’s good mood instantly disappeared without a trace. He looked at Bai Wenhao with hostility: “What are you doing here?”
Bai Wenhao’s expression remained indifferent. He shifted his gaze from Lee Miaoyin to Qi Hongxuan. “Mother came to visit Madame Qi. I came with you.”
Qi Hongxuan did not say anything, but he let out a cold snort in his heart.
Lee Miaoyin seemed to have noticed something amiss as she laughed dryly and said, “Both of you are classmates. You must have been like this for a long time.”
Qi Hongxuan did not say anything, but walked straight to Lee Miaoyin’s side. “You’re tired too. Let me help you.”
Lee Miaoyin put the last pill into a bottle, smiled and said, “No need, I’ve already finished it all. These pills are enough for Madame Qi for three months, Xiaotao and I have been bothering you for a long time, so it’s time to return home. I will send someone to deliver the next batch of pills to your family regularly.”
“Miss Li, are you returning home?” Mother and I will be going back to the manor soon. Bai Wenhao said lightly.
However, Qi Hongxuan said, “No need, I will send another car to take Miss Li home. Thank you for your good will, Brother Bai.”
Bai Wenhao didn’t look at Qi Hongxuan, but only at Lee Miaoyin.
Lee Miaoyin secretly sighed, but her expression remained indifferent. “Thank you for your kind intentions, Xiaotao has already prepared the carriage. After bidding farewell to Master Qi and Madam, she will head straight back home.”
Xiaotao looked at these two young masters. Their family background and demeanor were both of the highest class, and they were worthy of young ladies. It was a pity that the current situation seemed to be a dream of the Xiang King, and the Goddess had no intentions.
Lee Miaoyin ignored the two and directly brought some medicine to Madame Qi’s courtyard. Madame Qi and Madame Bai were currently in the pavilion under the tree, eating tea and chatting.
Madame Qi pointed at the approaching Lee Miaoyin and said, “Look, this is Master Chiang’s beloved disciple. Although she looks young, even Master Chiang is praising her medical skills.”
Madame Bai turned her head to look and saw a girl wearing a thin, tender green dress approaching from afar. Her face was pale and slightly sweaty. Her bright eyes and white teeth made her look like a porcelain doll that would attract tender affection.
