Chapter 245 Suspicion and Bai Yihao The Physician

Mo Xuetong woke up very early the next day. She cleaned up a little and set off for the Fu General Manor. She had to stop her maternal grandmother before she flared up. She arrived at just the right time. The Old Madam had brought her servants and some other men with her early in the morning. It was a mess and Mo Xuetong arrived at just the right time.

She finally managed to persuade the Old Madam to return to her room after a long while.

She said that her father had a way to deal with the Yu family and asked the Old Madam to wait. The Old Madam only barely managed to keep her anger in check then. However, she asked the servants to get Mo Xuetong’s second uncle, Luo Bin and ordered him to “take care” of the Yu family in the future. He was not to allow the people of the Yu Manor to slack off. The Old Madam felt upset when she thought of how her daughter had been poisoned to death.

She looked at Mo Xuetong who was lying in her embrace and thought of how the girl had lost her mother at such a young age and started to weep.

Mo Xuetong cried along with the Old Madam. She suddenly realized that the woman’s face was very pale and hurriedly called for Luo Wenyou.

Luo Wenyou hurried to find a physician while Mo Xuetong helped the Old Madam to lay down. The entire place was thrown into chaos.

Bai Yihao was dragged to the room by Luo Wenyou then.

Bai Yihao took his hands off the Old Madam’s wrist after taking her pulse and looked at Luo Wenyou. Luo Wenyou immediately understood his intentions and followed him out of the room. Mo Xuetong was worried and followed them out as well.

“Sir Bai, how is my grandmother? Is she alright?” Luo Wenyou asked worriedly before Bai Yihao could sit down.

“Don’t worry. She was just too worried and angry. She is in poor health, which is why she is so weak. She just needs to rest well and not be so worried and angry and she will be fine.” Bai Yihao said lightly. He picked up a brush and wrote a prescription.

Mo Xuetong could not help but look at the flawless and handsome youth when she heard that her grandmother was fine. Unlike how he was usually, Bai Yihao wore a blue cape with dragon embroidery over his white outer robes. His black hair was tied up with a ribbon and laid casually over his shoulder. He looked elegant and noble.

However, his appearance today made him seem even more solemn, majestic, and nobler.

He could just stand there silently, but his aura, disposition, and elegance were way more evident than many in the world. There were not many who could compare to him.

However, he obviously looked ready to go out. Could he have known that her grandmother was ill and was just waiting there? Mo Xuetong could not help but raise her brows.

“Sir Bai, I invited you here in a hurry because my grandmother was very ill. You must be tired.” Luo Wenyou said guiltily, having calmed down then.

It’s alright, but I heard that Eldest Brother is coming, so I want to go to the palace to take a look. However, the palace still has not sent any message yet, so I think he is not here yet.” Bai Yihao looked up and placed the prescription in Luo Wenyou’s hand. Then, he smiled politely at Mo Xuetong as if he had just noticed her.

Mo Xuetong lowered her head as he looked up to hide the wariness in her eyes. He was the one who had pushed her into the spotlight, causing her to lose her hiding place. She had appeared before all but did not have the ability to protect herself. Why had he done this?

Given his abilities, he did not have to pretend to be a noble person before others, as if he was not interested in politics. If he wanted, Mo Xuetong knew, the Yan Kingdom throne was his. Even though he was not the Yan Emperor’s only legal son nor the eldest, he had been made the Crown Prince.

Mo Xuetong even had a feeling that he was the one who had wanted to come to Qin to be a hostage!

But why did he want to come to Qin? This was something Mo Xuetong could not understand no matter how she tried to think about it. Just like why he had focused on her. This was something Mo Xuetong could not understand.

When Mo Xuetong saw him and thought of his cold-bloodedness and ruthlessness in the future, Mo Xuetong felt numbness crawling up her spine. She thought of how she had come to his attention but she did not have the ability to fight him and felt afraid. This person was too mysterious and dangerous. Furthermore, he was using Mo Xuetong as a chess piece. What did he want?

She could not understand but had to.

Her lowered eyes landed on the simple and sleek jade belt he was wearing. She suddenly realized that he was slowly approaching him and could not help but feel nervous.

“Third Miss Mo, was the Old Madam ill before?” He asked casually.

Wouldn’t it be more appropriate if he asked her cousin this?

Mo Xuetong could not help but unclench her tightly clenched fist. She loosened her tight facial muscles and looked up with a smile. He was indeed looking at her. His gaze was silent, but there was something in it that she could not understand. His voice was clear and gentle, just like jade.

It was a voice that could leave a good impression.

“Grandmother has always been poorly, and when Aunt...pased away, she was gravely ill. We got many physicians to treat her and she only left the bed after six months.” Luo Wenyou answered. He hesitated when he mentioned his aunt and looked at Mo Xuetong carefully.

“No wonder...” Bai Yihao smiled lightly. He turned around and started writing again before passing the paper to Luo Wenyou. “This is to regulate the Old Madam’s body. She is too weak and eating nourishing things would not help. It would be more helpful to regulate her diet.”

Luo Wenyou accepted the prescription and said happily, “Cousin Tong, keep Sir Bai company here. I will get someone to make the medicine immediately.”

“Alright.” Mo Xuetong answered softly. Her expression had already returned to normal.

Luo Wenyou left hurriedly while ordering the servant beside him to buy medicine and getting the maid waiting at the door to see how the Old Madam was. He also ordered the maids outside the room to do various things.

It was very quiet inside the room.

Bai Yihao looked at Mo Xuetong with gentle eyes and pointed at a chair, gesturing for her to sit.

After an awkward silence, Mo Xuetong walked over to the other side of the table and sat down. He picked up the books placed on one side, put it between them, and gestured for her to put her hand on the stack of books.

“Third Miss Mo, you seem to have even gotten thinner recently. Are you feeling unwell? Let me take a look.” He pointed at the books and gestured for her to put her hand on the books.

Bai Yihao stretched out his long, slender, and pale hand and placed it by the book. His smile was light and his eyes distant. One could not see anything odd from here.

He was so gracious, so Mo Xuetong did not want to be petty. She stretched out her hand after a moment of hesitation.

His long slender fingers landed on her tender and pale hand. His hand made hers look pale and weak. Mo Xuetong watched Bai Yihao’s expression silently, trying to find out why he was doing this. However, he was elegant and quiet and did not seem to be behaving out of the ordinary at all.

“The other hand please, Third Miss Mo.” Bai Yihao looked up with a smile.

Mo Xuetong pulled back her left hand and placed her right hand onto the stack of books with a slight frown.

The diagnosis was taking a longer time than usual. It was much longer than the time he took to diagnose her grandmother. His clear eyes were hidden beneath his long lashes and she could not tell what he wanted to do. It made her feel grave for some reason.

“Sir Bai, is something the matter?” Mo Xuetong asked in confusion.

Given Bai Yihao’s abilities, did he need this long to diagnose a person?

“Third Miss Mo, did you have your period recently and was upset and tired? Your body is a little weak. If you do not lighten up, and your periods will become unpredictable. It would affect your children in the future.” Bai Yihao looked up slowly with a smile. His voice was just as gentle and elegant before. He was calm and did not sound angry.

However, Mo Xuetong flushed immediately when she heard that.

Her cold, beautiful face immediately flamed up. How could he say that to an unmarried girl!

Her health had always been poor. That was true. She did start her period a few days ago, signifying that she was an adult now. However, this was something so embarrassing. Mo Xuetong felt herself flushing when she heard him say that. Even though he was a physician, he should not be saying something like that to a girl.

This, this was too much!

Mo Xuetong almost wanted to leave right there and then. Was this a topic that an unmarried girl could speak about with a handsome young man?!

“Third Miss Mo, please hold on. Let me write you a prescription, or you will definitely fall gravely ill within the year and might not be able to recover.” Bai Yihao stood up as if he did not see the bright red flush on her pale face. He turned his back to her and went to the table. The papers he wrote prescriptions on were still laid out there.

He thought for a moment before writing.

Mo Xuetong was startled when she saw how naturally he was acting. The shyness on her expression abated a little. And because he was not looking at her, the awkwardness she felt faded slightly as well. She pondered on what he said and frowned slightly. Was her health that weak? Wasn’t she almost recovered after this period of recuperation?

Even Mother Xu was happy at the arrival of her period. She had secretly hinted several times and expressed that Mo Xuetong was really recovered. She would be able to have children when she married. Why did Bai Yihao say that there was something wrong with her?

Mo Xuetong did not believe that Bai Yihao would lie to her about something like that. He did make use of her and push her into the spotlight. Furthermore, he was such a prideful person. He would not do something as low-class as this.

“Third Miss Mo, eat less cold foods in the future and consume less nourishing things. You need to slowly recuperate and should not eat foods that are too heaty or cold. The items written on this prescription are the best for you. You have always been reading medical texts and should know about them.” Bai Yihao turned around and handed the prescription to Mo Xuetong with a slight smile.

“Many thanks, Sir Bai.” Mo Xuetong’s face was still burning but her expression had already calmed down. She curtsied to Bai Yihao and took the prescription. Indeed, she had seen most of the herbs on the prescription and knew that they were beneficial to the human body. However, she had never thought that they could be used together like this.

“I heard that you quite like medicine. I wonder if you like acupuncture?” Bai Yihao asked suddenly and stared into Mo Xuetong’s eyes.

Acupuncture! Mo Xuetong liked it, of course. However, there was no one to teach her so she did not dare to start anything. She had once wanted to learn it, but acupuncture was different from medicine. Even though she wanted to try it, she could not do anything about it and could only give up. When she heard Bai Yihao’s question, she could not help but look up in shock. She did not understand why he was asking her that.

“If Third Miss Mo is interested, I can teach you acupuncture.” Bai Yihao’s voice was elegant, gentle, and gracious. Coupled with the faint smile on his handsome face, many would put down their guards against him. However, Mo Xuetong backed away and lowered her head, saying, “Many thanks for your kindness, Sir Bai but I cannot learn acupuncture from you.”

Firstly, it was inappropriate for an unmarried girl to keep meeting a man whom she was not related to.

Secondly, she did not wish to be so close to Bai Yihao! He had only met her a few times before making use of her. She still did not know why until now. Mo Xuetong did not think that learning acupuncture from him was a good idea. Not knowing acupuncture was better than being used as a chess piece by him. Behind his gentle, elegant, and harmless face, was a cold and vicious heart.

She would not be tricked by such appearance in her second life.
