Chu estate’s physician Bao Youlu already rushed over in a hurry. He was just about to push open the door when Qin Wanru stopped him.
“Madam, what is the meaning of this? Isn’t the young miss seriously ill?” Bao Youlu asked in puzzlement.
Qin Wanru’s face became red. “Um… there is someone inside, so it’s not too suitable to enter right now.”
“What? Did Divine Physician Ji arrive?” Bao Youlu subconsciously stroked his white beard when he saw Qin Wanru’s flash of bashfulness. The Madam is truly stunning, my heart might have been moved if I was twenty years younger.
Master Chu is quite blessed, only it is a pity…
Sigh, fate truly toys with people.
“No, it’s someone else. I must trouble sir Bao to wait a bit,” explained Qin Wanru.
“Oh? Is there another individual with outstanding medicinal expertise in Brightmoon City? Then this old one will be able to deepen my experience.” Bao Youlu looked towards the house with curiosity.
Qin Wanru immediately felt awkward. She had no idea how in the world she was going to explain things later!
Chu Zhongtian was already pacing back and forth nervously. He finally couldn’t take it anymore. He pulled his wife to the side and asked, “Mada, is Ah Zu really reliable? Should we have sir Bao take a look first or bring over Divine Physician Ji?”
He lowered his voice on the second part to not hurt Bao Youlu’s pride.
Qin Wanru wasn’t confident either. “I really don’t know either, but Chuyan seems to trust him a lot. He is probably reliable.”
Chu Huanzhao also shouted out. “I also trust my brother-in-law! He will definitely cure big sis!”
Qin Wanru jabbed her daughter’s forehead, saying with a hmph, “What does a brat like you know?”
A stupefied look was on Chu Zhontian’s face. “You aren’t even sure either, but you let him treat her?”
“Enough, enough!” Qin Wanru felt a wave of anxiety. “Where did you send that fox demon?”
“Fox Demon?” Chu Huanzhao looked at the two of them in confusion.
Chu Zhontian hurriedly said, “There’s a child here, what kind of words are you using?”
Qin Wanru harrumphed. “Am I wrong? Why would Chuyan be so angry if that woman didn’t come knocking on our door?”
Even though she acted tough on the surface, she still changed her wording.
Chu Zhongtian couldn’t hold himself back from saying, “You can’t blame her either. She didn’t know Chuyan was injured. We can only say that Ah Zu is too lenient on all parties that triggered this type of result.”
“What?!” Qin Wanru erupted in rage. “She hasn’t even joined his family, yet you’re already speaking for her? You men really don’t have a single good thing about you! All of you lose your heads as soon as you see someone pretty!”
“What do you mean…” Chu Zhongtian had a forced smile on his face.
Chu Huanzhao was puzzled. “Dad got a concubine?”
Those uncles in those circles all have huge harems, and our dad’s status is the highest of them all!
She actually felt a bit of pity for her dad. He really struggled on this front.
The first reason she thought this was because it was perfectly normal for those in the noble circles of this world to have three wives and four husbands. The second reason was because her mom had always been the strict one, while his father was more agreeable, so she naturally leaned towards her dad’s side.
Of course, if Qin Wanru knew what she was thinking, she would definitely teach her the painful lesson of what a mother’s love was!
Chu Zhongtian’s face reddened. “Nonsense! There is no such thing! It’s your sister’s husband!”
“Brother-in-law!” Chu Huanzhao was previously in high spirits while watching all of this drama from the side. She was stunned on the spot when she heard this. What was going on?
“Brother-in-law is taking in a concubine?” Chu Huanzhao blinked her eyes. She clearly couldn’t digest the information yet. This news really was too odd!
“Hmph, I’ve never heard of such an outrageous son-in-law either!” Qin Wanru snorted angrily. It was obvious that she was dissatisfied about this situation.
“Who is she?” Chu Huanzhao only felt her mind go completely blank. Her original excitement that her dad was finally getting a concubine vanished.
“Some girl from Immortal Abode. Is she not scared of shaming our Chu clan’s dignity?!” Qin Wanru glared at her husband, clearly warning him not to bring up the other party’s status.
“Is it that Qiu Honglei?” Chu Huanzhao’s voice rose an octave.
“How did you know?” Chu Zhongtian was surprised. How did his daughter know about the Immortal Abode affair?
“Hmph! Brother-in-law stirred up a huge hubbub in that place, so how could I not know? He actually has the nerve to bring someone back so quickly!” Chu Huanzhao looked angrily at Chu Zhongtian. “Dad, where did you send that woman?”
“Probably the guest room. As for where exactly, I wouldn’t know…” Chu Zhongtian subconsciously replied.
Why is my second daughter getting even more angry than my first daughter?
Chu Huanzhao left with a huff towards the guest rooms when she heard this reply.
Unfortunately, they didn’t know that Qiu Honglei wasn’t in the Chu clan’s guest room but rather Zu An’s courtyard.
“So this is your young master’s living quarters?” A faint smile appeared on the corners of Qiu Honglei’s lips when she looked at the small courtyard in front of her.
“Indeed, the young master lives here. He normally does not stay with the young miss,” said that servant in a fawning manner. This woman is just too pretty! Her body smells so good.
“Thank you! What is your name?” Qiu Honglei smiled sweetly.
That servant was immediately overwhelmed by the favor, replying in a flustered manner, “This humble one is Jin Zhu!”
“Jin Zhu?” Qiu Honglei giggled. “This name is quite special.”[1]
That servant’s entire body went numb. She smiled at me! She smiled at me!
“The lady can ask me for anything you need!” This servant Jin Zhu continued to simp.
“Thank you brother Jin.” Qiu Honglei saw him off with a smile. She then examined this small courtyard with great curiosity.
“I wonder if he hides anything in his normal living quarters.” Qiu Honglei had a pondering look on her face. She pushed open the door, about to look around to see if she find out the reason why Zu An changed so greatly from his previous publicly acknowledged trash self.
