Chapter 355: LIFE WORSE THAN DEATH

Xu Yu frowned. Why did it feel like he just got trolled?

“I won’t be making any medicine for the time being.” The godly doctor then glanced at her coldly. “Have you fertilized the herbs? You’re still wasting time here talking nonsense?”

Ning Shu: …

Ning Shu felt like the godly doctor was becoming more open. The clearest sign of this was that his jabs towards her were getting more and more poisonous. She also had a sensitive and weak heart. She would also feel hurt from being mocked like this all the time, alright?

She curled her lips unhappily but made sure to exhort again, “No matter what, don’t make any medicine!”

The days passed slowly just like this. The godly doctor didn’t attempt to make any medicine, so Ning Shu was relieved.

However, she had relaxed too soon. This particular day, as she was weeding, she heard the sounds of people heading towards the bamboo house. From the sounds of it, there were quite a lot of them.

“This is where the godly doctor lives?” A voice appeared.

When Ning Shu heard this voice, she froze in astonishment for a second, then dashed into the kitchen and started frantically rubbing the soot from the pots on her face and neck.

“Senior Sister, what are you doing?” When Xu Yu saw Ning Shu acting like this, he asked, “What are you up to now? Master’s going to scold you again, you know.”

“Little Junior Brother, outsiders have arrived so go greet them. Your senior sister is a woman so it’s inappropriate for me to welcome men,” said Ning Shu as she hid herself in the kitchen.

Da fudge!? My fudging fudges! How did Luo Junyan get here? Why would the prince regent come to such a remote place?

This wasn’t logicial!?

It couldn’t be that he knew she was here, right?

“Go see what they’re talking to Master about?” Ning Shu handed the kettle to Xu Yu. “Go pour tea for the guests.”

Xu Yu headed to the main hall with the kettle, so Ning Shu started pacing around the kitchen by herself. Hopefully, Luo Junyan wasn’t here looking for her. Now that the hidden guard wasn’t with her, if she was captured, ‘DEATH’ would be the writing on the wall. The only other possible option would be ‘LIFE WORSE THAN DEATH.’ After all, these people were all very talented at torture.

“How is it? What did they say?” Ning Shu started pressing Xu Yu for answers as soon as he walked back in. “What did they say?”

Xu Yu’s tone was a little stirred up. “Those people want Master to go treat the Emperor.”

“Phew…” Ning Shu exhaled in relief as she wiped away her cold sweat. Then she asked, “What did Master say?”

“Master didn’t immediately agree. That person said that he’ll come again tomorrow,” replied Xu Yu.

Ning Shu sneakily came out only after Luo Junyan’s group left. She strode right into the room and asked the godly doctor, “Master, are you going to go to the capital?”

When the godly doctor saw the soot on Ning Shu’s face, he asked with a frown, “What’s with your face?”

“Let’s not worry about that for now. Are you going to the capital to treat the Emperor?” asked Ning Shu again.

“Could it be that the world has no monarch? As long as I’m staying on this nation’s land, I have no right to refuse. Although I rejected them this time, next time I’ll still have to agree,” answered the godly doctor mildly.

However, Ning Shu disapproved of this course of action. “But will your body be able to withstand it? This place is pretty far from the capital.”

“You’re hiding from those people?” The godly doctor suddenly asked a completely unrelated question so Ning Shu was caught off guard.

“You’re afraid of those people?” asked the godly doctor again.

This guy was seriously good at catching even the smallest detail. When Ning Shu didn’t reply, the godly doctor didn’t push her either. Xu Yu wanted to go to the capital, so he said, “Master, please bring me! I’ve never been to the Imperial Palace before.”

“Be good and stay here with your senior sister. Don’t neglect your homework,” said the godly doctor. Then he said to Ning Shu, “Look after the house well.”

“You can’t not go?” How did this event happen? It felt like the storyline had already changed beyond recognition.

The godly doctor said mildly, “Help me pack. Since you’re afraid of those people, don’t come out to send me off and don’t let them catch sight of you.”

Ning Shu sighed again. “Alright, Master. I’ll start preparing for you.”

“Master, now that there’s only me and Xu Yu here, that’s a woman and a child. It’s seriously too dangerous. Why don’t you teach us how to make poison?” Ning Shu finally got to her motive.

The godly doctor glanced at her, then nodded. “Alright.”

Ning Shu almost started jumping from excitement.
