Chapter 856: 856
Ye Yuwei was not dim-witted . She listened deliberately to what Gu Juexi had to say in his impatient tone . There was rage in his tone too .
Gu Juexi opened his mouth to explain himself further but Ye Yuwei had replaced the herb basket and walked out of the room .
Gu Juexi covered his face with his hands and rested his elbows on the stone table .
He was being impetuous . The closer he was to the truth, the more he realized he couldn’t handle it .
Ye Shu and his parents, what was the true nature of the relationship between these three people?
Now, Nalan Chunbo and Ye Di had come into the picture as well .
Ye Yuwei walked to the front of the house angrily . Master Yao Lao was still seeing her patients at that moment .
So she would not get into Master Yao Lao’s way, Ye Yuwei quietly tidied up the prescription papers and Chinese brushes—the usual prescription writing tools—that Master Yao Lao used .
There were many patients outside but they queued up in order willingly . In fact, giving out queue tickets was to keep track of how many patients were available for today, so that those who didn’t get a ticket would stop waiting .
Even after Ye Yuwei had given out all the tickets, her mood had yet to be lifted . The people without the tickets were asked to come back tomorrow, while those with the tickets could continue to wait for their turn .
“Lady, are you newly hired by Master Yao Lao?” asked a lady who was sitting on a stool nearby, waiting for her turn .
Ye Yuwei looked at Master Yao Lao who was seeing her patient inside . “I’m her daughter-in-law . ”
“What? But I thought Master Yao Lao’s son was already dead long ago?” asked the lady in shock .
Ye Yuwei lowered her head and anxiously played with her fingers . ‘She has an indestructible godson’ .
“It should be that godson of hers . Wasn’t this clinic opened by her godson for her to operate?” Someone in front spoke up to help answer the question .
Ye Yuwei stopped talking once and for all . Gu Juexi hadn’t come out . ‘I am furious!’
“Aunt,” Yuan Mo’s silvery voice vibrated in Ye Yuwei’s ear suddenly .
Ye Yuwei turned around to look at the approaching boy who was holding a plate with a watermelon on it . “Hi Yuan Mo, what is this?”
“Aunt, it’s very hot today . This watermelon is from my house’s orchard, it’s for you . ” Yuan Mo passed the plate with the watermelon to Ye Yuwei . “Try it, Aunt, it’s really sweet . ”
Ye Yuwei squatted to be on eye level with little Yuan Mo . She looked at him and reached out to ruffle his hair . “Thank you . Why are you so well-behaved?”
Yuan Mo smiled radiantly . His tender cheeks flushed pink . “Aunt, you enjoy the watermelon . I have to head back to my grandfather to search for herbs on the hill . ”
Ye Yuwei stared at the little boy who was running towards an old man with an herb basket on his back, the plate in her hands . She thought of her own dear son who was just as obedient as that boy . She missed her children a little bit more each day .
Luckily, today was the last day .
“I told you, that kid has bad intentions,” Gu Juexi’s gravelly voice sounded behind her .
The smile on Ye Yuwei’s face disappeared in a split second .
Gu Juexi stared at Yuan Mo’s back that was slowly fading as though he was looking at his rival . He couldn’t stop thinking that the boy had an ill-intentioned purpose .
Ye Yuwei wanted to walk inside with the watermelon when her hand was grabbed by Gu Juexi instantly .
Ye Yuwei lowered her gaze to look at his skinny hand that was holding hers . The bones were sticking out and the green nerves were almost visible on the back of his hand . He was indeed a lot thinner than he used to be because of the injury .
Gu Juexi pulled Ye Yuwei toward a quiet place where not many people wandered . He pressed her against the wall and squinted at the woman who was struggling in his grip .
