Coincidentally, at this moment, Little Bruiser ran in while holding Little Zhenzhen’s hand.

“Sis, Sis! Look what we picked up!” It was Little Bruiser’s crisp and loud voice that instantly covered the man’s voice.

Yu Wan did not hear what he said.

Little Bruiser pulled his sister into the house and opened his other hand, revealing a smooth and round yellow stone. “Sis, do you think it’s jade? Isn’t it worth a lot of money?”

This little fellow even knew about jade. Who knew where he heard it from? Unfortunately, this was just an ordinary pebble.

Yu Wan was always pleasantly surprised by Little Bruiser’s new understanding every time. This feeling was very similar to being a parent. However, she had never given birth in her two lifetimes, so she didn’t know if this motherly aura was the nature of all women.

“There’s still a lot in Zhenzhen’s pocket, right, Zhenzhen?” Little Bruiser shook his sister’s little hand.

Little Zhenzhen nodded and pulled open her pocket with her other hand. It was filled with colorful stones.

Yu Wan finally saw through Little Bruiser’s intentions. Little Zhenzhen had been bullied by Guo Xianqiao and had become timid. She didn’t dare to go out, so Little Bruiser thought of a way to coax her out.

“Is it her?” The man in the bamboo hat suddenly spoke.

Zhenzhen grew slowly and only had the size of a two-year-old child. The two little fellows did not understand the man’s words and only looked at him in unison. He was dressed in black and had a cold aura. Little Zhenzhen was a little afraid and hid behind Brother Bruiser.

Little Bruiser puffed out his chest. “Don’t be afraid, I’ll protect you!”

Yu Wan was puzzled by the question “Is it her”. Why was this man speaking incoherently? It’s you? Is it her? What logic is this?!

Yu Wan had missed that sentence, so she could not link the man’s question together. However, since the two little fellows were here, Yu Wan still introduced them. “My younger brother and sister.”

With that, she asked the two little fellows to address the people and accept their cobblestones so that they could find new ones.

Only the three of them and the fat ball that had returned to the cage to sleep were left in the room.

Yu Wan took out a pen and paper. As she wrote the prescription, she said, “By the way, Young Master Xu, do you know me?”

The man looked at Yu Wan’s expression as if she didn’t know him at all and calmly looked away. “I’ve got the wrong person.”

“Oh.” Yu Wan nodded and finished writing the prescription without any doubts. Just as she was hesitating who to hand it to, the man spoke again. “Have you been to the Three Locusts Pavilion?”

Yu Wan asked, “Where’s Three Locusts Pavilion?”

The last trace of hope in the man’s eyes retreated. He took the prescription from Yu Wan’s hand, picked up the cage, and bade farewell. The moment he closed the cage door, the little fat ball jumped out and into Yu Wan’s arms.

The man was shocked again. He did not expect that a little thing who did not recognize its own family would actually throw itself at a wild girl it had only seen once.

The fat little ball refused to leave, but this was not up to it. The man patted the box. “Come in.”

The fat little ball looked up at the sky. Hmph!

“You want me to use force?” The man threatened.

The fat little ball waved its claws and bared its teeth!

Yu Wan stroked its back comfortingly and said to it, “Alright, it’s time to go back. You can come back in five days.”

The last was directed at the man.

The man hummed heavily. “Got it.”

Only then did the little fat ball jump out of Yu Wan’s arms unwillingly and land elegantly and lightly on the table with the cage.

The man opened the cage door. The little fat ball entered the cage with a sullen expression. Although it entered, it bit off the iron of the cage with a few cracking sounds. It could be said that it had a very bad temper.

The man left with the cage. Old Cui sent him all the way to the carriage parked two miles outside the village.

“Your Highness, please.” Old Cui lifted the curtain for the man.

The man stepped into the carriage and sat down. He placed the cage beside him.

Old Cui thought that he was dissatisfied with him when he saw that he was silent. However, no matter how he thought about it, he could not remember what he had done wrong today. Hence, he speculated and said, “Your Highness, don’t worry. Since I’ve already agreed to stop practicing medicine, I’ll keep my word.”

The man did not listen to him at all. He only asked indifferently, “What’s the background of that woman surnamed Yu?”

Old Cui thought that he was surprised by Yu Wan’s medical skills, so he explained, “Miss Yu is from Lotus Flower Village. Her father is from the village, and her mother was married from afar. She has an aunt in Nantian City, and her veterinary skills were learned from her aunt’s family. It seems… It happened two years ago.”

“Two years ago?” The man murmured, but soon he shook his head in disappointment. “Nantian City is too far from the Three Locusts Pavilion.”

“What did you say, Your Highness?” Old Cui didn’t hear him clearly.

“Nothing.” The man regained his cold expression. “Do your duty well. I can give you your life and take it back at any time!”

“Yes.” Old Cui bowed his head respectfully.

The man lowered the curtain. The coachman waved his whip and the carriage drove away. The man’s swaying figure was enveloped in a huge shadow. He closed his eyes indifferently and his thoughts drifted back to two years ago.

On a rainy night, he was stabbed several times and lay in the mud dyed red by blood. A woman who was pregnant walked over with an oil paper umbrella. “There’s someone here.”

“Miss, don’t go!” A maid in her fifties chased after her.

“Nanny, look, he’s still alive!” The woman squatted down with difficulty and placed the umbrella on his head.

She had a pair of innocent eyes.

She was already pregnant at such a young age.

The woman called her Miss…

The man did not remember much after that.

He had fainted. When he woke up, he was lying in a meditation room in a temple. The maidservant and woman who had sent him here had long disappeared.
