Herumrennen und kleinere Rollen spielen - Kapitel 77

Kapitel 77

"Ruochen is already waiting for you outside. Let him come back to the Yun residence with you."

My jaw nearly dropped to the ground. The fox shook his head, chuckled, and gently put my jaw back in place. Only then did I find my voice: "Is that little brat really a miracle doctor?"

"Little brat?" the fox asked gently, half-closing its eyes.

"Hmm." I didn't notice anything wrong at all, and nodded instinctively, still immersed in the shock that the little brat was really a miracle doctor.

This is amazing! This kid is only a few years old! And judging from his conversations with me, he's so childish. Aren't the miracle doctors on TV all strange old men with white beards?

"And what about Qinglin?" The voice was still gentle.

"Erlinzi," I replied instinctively. My brother's illness, or rather, his poison, hadn't been cured despite the Yun family's wealth and the long course of medication. Could this little brat really be that effective? But the fox recommended him; he shouldn't be wrong, right?

Where is Tian Xilan?

"Fake immortal." I had barely finished speaking when I felt a sharp pain in my ear. I let out a scream, turned around, and glared angrily at the fox. Damn it, why did this bastard bite me for no reason?

"Why is he a fake immortal?" A strange flame flickered in the fox's peach blossom eyes. He stroked my face with one hand, moving it back and forth, but his voice was unusually gentle.

"Wh...what fake immortal?" I stammered, feigning ignorance. Before I could even move, the fox had already wrapped its other arm tightly around me.

"Why is Tian Xilan a fake immortal?" the fox repeated "kindly" and "gently," bringing its face close to mine, so close that it seemed our noses could touch.

Oh no, oh no! Why was I so preoccupied with my own thoughts that I let this cunning fox trick me into revealing information? Why was I so careless in front of the fox? What should I do now? How can I explain things to the fox in a way that will satisfy him?

"Well... because he often wears white clothes." I swallowed hard, my eyes darting around, and stammered.

"Anything else?" The fox cupped my face in his hands to keep my gaze from wandering, his voice becoming increasingly gentle, yet I still trembled three times.

What should I do? Honestly saying that Tian Xilan is handsome and looks like a god is just asking for trouble! Oh my god, will I be able to get away with crying right now?

"Qianqian?" The fox continued to cup my face with one hand, while the other hand slipped into my collar.

5555, so be it, I closed my eyes and shouted, "Because he's good at martial arts and often flies around in white clothes, he looks a lot like..."

If I had known that I would be "executed on the spot" if I had said anything, I would have simply kept quiet and not wasted people's brain cells. 5555, foxes are so cunning and not cute at all!

I walked out of the second palace gate with a mournful expression, and saw Cui'er, Ye Feng, and Ruo Chen waiting outside the carriage. Cui'er lifted the curtain and helped me into the carriage first, and then the three of them followed. Unlike the fox's carriage last night, four people were already the limit of this prime minister's carriage.

Upon arriving at the Yun residence, the carriage stopped outside the gate. The four of us alighted from the carriage. The guards greeted me as usual, but stopped Ye Feng and Ruo Chen behind me.

"What is this for?" I was a little confused.

“Young master, this is the master’s order. No one except people from the Yun family is allowed to enter.” One of them bowed and replied.

“I invited them,” I said patiently, frowning slightly.

The two men turned around and knelt before me, saying, "Young master, please forgive us! We dare not disobey your orders!"

"Master, Master, it's Master again! Am I not even allowed to bring someone into the house? Besides, in the Yun family mansion, Old Man Yun's words are more effective than an imperial edict."

"Get out of the way. I'll explain if Father wants to pursue the matter. It's not your fault," I said coldly, suppressing my anger.

The two exchanged a glance, but ultimately chose to keep their heads down and continue kneeling in front of me.

"Cui'er, go and call Uncle De over." I took a few deep breaths to restrain myself from kicking him, and turned to Cui'er to say this.

Cui'er hadn't taken two steps when she turned back. I looked up and saw Zhang De hurriedly walk out behind her. He glanced at the two kneeling men, then bowed to me and said, "Young Master is back. Zhang De has failed in his duty to manage his servants. Please punish him."

"Uncle De, you're too kind. I just didn't expect that after going out for a while, I wouldn't even be able to bring someone home with me," I said with a faint smile.

"Hurry up and apologize to the young master, then go to the steward's office to receive your punishment!" Zhang De turned and scolded the two men in a low voice. The two men naturally obeyed and apologized, then got up and walked towards the steward's office.

I glanced at Zhang De, and he also looked up and quickly glanced behind me. I couldn't see the emotion in his eyes, but he bowed his head and said respectfully to me, "Young master, please come into the mansion!"

Zhang De didn't stop Ye Feng and Ruo Chen anymore. The four of us arrived at Xifeng Garden. Cui'er arranged accommodations for Ye Feng and Ruo Chen and ordered someone to prepare lunch. I said a few words to the two of them and then went to Nanzhu Garden alone.

Nanzhu Garden hadn't changed much since I left. It felt the same as the entire Yun Mansion—exquisite yet desolate, tranquil yet solemn. I gestured for Cheng'er to step back, knocked on the door, and then gently opened it.

"Moon, it's Moon back!" The person lying on the bed turned her head and saw me, propping herself up as she called out happily in a soft voice.

"Brother?" I was stunned for a moment, then ran over quickly, threw myself onto Yunfeng's bedside, and shouted happily, "Brother can get up by himself? Brother's illness is cured?"

That face, almost identical to mine yet extremely handsome, was also beaming with a happy smile. He reached out and gently touched my head, then stared at my face for a long while before whispering, "Yue'er has lost weight."

"You haven't lost weight, haven't lost weight, hehe." I grabbed Yunfeng's hand and grinned at him, "Can you stand up now, brother?"

He looked me up and down carefully again, and then said with great heartache and apology, "You can sit up now. Yue'er actually kept it a secret from your brother before she went out. If your brother weren't so useless, how could he have let Yue'er suffer and take such risks?"

"Brother, I'm back safe and sound, don't say things like that. The earrings you gave me to wear have been a huge help." Yunfeng knew I had gone to Tianqing Kingdom, but he wasn't angry at all, which made me feel a little guilty and embarrassed. I had been worried that Yunfeng would scold me for being arrogant if he knew about this, but he's still the same as always, taking responsibility for everything related to me.

Yunfeng remained silent, seemingly still immersed in self-reproach. Sigh, this older brother seems to dote on his younger sister more than just a little.

"By the way, brother, I found a miracle doctor to treat you. He was introduced by the Emperor and seems to be quite skilled."

Yunfeng and the fox must have met before, otherwise the fox wouldn't have given me the earring. So Yunfeng's illness couldn't be hidden from that cunning fox, which is why he had Ruochen follow me. I just hope the little brat really has some skills and can cure Yunfeng's illness, or rather, his poison.

"Sent by the Emperor?" Yun Feng repeated thoughtfully, as if he were asking himself rather than asking me.

"Hmm." I nodded, then suddenly remembered something and finally asked the question that had been on my mind all morning, "Does my brother have many secrets he hasn't told me?"
