Traveling through time and space to become a lady of a noble family, but she only wants to escape

When Gu Yan exerted force, Bai Zhi felt as if the bones in her hand were about to be crushed. She cried out in pain in a somewhat uncontrollable manner. She quickly used her left hand to pry open Gu Yan's palm and blew on her right hand.

Gu Yan frowned slightly, and then suddenly picked up Bai Zhi's right hand and looked at it carefully, but could not see any clues.

Bai Zhi glanced at him: "It's okay, it just hurts."

"I know my limits. I definitely didn't use enough force to hurt you." Gu Yan shook his head. He gently pinched Bai Zhi's palm and asked, "Does it hurt?"

Bai Zhi: "It doesn't hurt."

Gu Yan increased his strength, and this time, before he could ask, Bai Zhi started to cry out in pain. She stared at her right hand in disbelief - if it never got better, then all her martial arts training would be in vain.

"Changfeng! Call Zhiheng over!"

In just a quarter of an hour, Fang Zhiheng arrived hurriedly carrying a medicine box.

"You're here quickly, Doctor Fang." Bai Zhi stretched out her right hand. "It looks like the injury on this hand has recurred. Doctor Fang, please take a look."

"I happened to be in the clinic today, not far from the Marquis' Mansion." Fang Zhiheng spoke concisely and directly grabbed Bai Zhi's right hand, took out three needles from the medicine box, and inserted them one by one.

The first needle was only slightly painful, but the second needle was completely different. Bai Zhi couldn't help but shrink her hand in pain. By the third needle, the pain was almost unbearable. Bai Zhi grimaced and said, "Doctor Fang Fang Fang, will it be fine after this injection?"

Fang Zhiheng picked up one of the needles and asked, "Does it hurt here?"

Bai Zhi gritted her teeth and said, "It hurts, it hurts like having a tooth pulled out."

Gu Yan: "Can it be cured?"

Fang Zhiheng sighed, "Your Highness, Miss Bai has developed a chronic illness. This shouldn't happen. Miss Bai, did you bump your hand just now?"

Gu Yan clenched his fists: "She was practicing boxing with me just now."

"Miss Bai, you must not practice this again!" Fang Zhiheng said earnestly, "You can recover almost completely if you rest now, otherwise it will hurt when you touch it, and it will be difficult for you to hold chopsticks in the future. It will be even more uncomfortable if it is cloudy or rainy."

Bai Zhi looked at Gu Yan: "Does that mean that I can't learn acupoint pressing?"

"Acupoint pressing?" Fang Zhiheng, a doctor who saves lives, couldn't bear to see his patients ruining their bodies, so he said before Gu Yan could, "Miss Bai, acupoint pressing consumes a lot of finger strength. If you do it, it will affect the broken bones in your palms. If they don't heal for a long time, you will become disabled."

Bai Zhi scratched her eyebrows and accepted the reality that she would never be able to learn acupoint pressing in her lifetime.

"Your Highness, Miss Bai, there are still patients in my clinic who need urgent treatment, so I will leave first." Fang Zhiheng held the medicine box and walked as fast as the wind. When he was about to leave the gate of Yishuiyuan, he turned back and reminded, "Miss Bai, please rest well!"

Bai Zhi waved at him: "Okay!"

Gu Yan: "Bai Zhi, I..."

"Stop, I know what you're going to say. The hand is already like this, let's not touch it." Bai Zhi patted her thigh, "Look forward, if my fists don't work, I still have my legs. Even if my legs are broken, I still have a good mouthful of teeth, don't you think?"

Gu Yan looked at her right hand, which had turned slightly purple, and remained silent for a long time.

Bai Zhi: "...Okay, can you still see the flowers if you look again?"

"You can tell me directly if you feel sad." Gu Yan said, "Whether it's teaching you to press acupoints with your left hand or searching for rare medicinal herbs in the world to treat your hand, you don't have to settle for second best. I will do everything I can to make your wish come true."

Most people would feel deeply touched after hearing this, but Bai Zhi only felt terrified. She knew that Gu Yan meant well, and she was not so ignorant that she could not tell the difference between good and bad words, but she was still terrified.

Not only was she apprehensive about being treated so caringly, she also had a vague feeling that something was not quite right.

But she couldn't quite tell what was wrong.

"Why?" Her own voice sounded so far away in her ears, as if it was floating into the sky. "Why?"

"Since this matter has stopped, I will talk about it in detail after the spring." Gu Yan smiled faintly, "At the beginning of tomorrow, I will take Fu Yao away from the capital temporarily, and tell others that I am traveling. I have made arrangements, and Changfeng will stay with you. You must take good care of your injuries and stop practicing boxing. I will leave you a book of internal energy skills. You should memorize the formulas on it first and try to gather energy in your dantian. If you don't understand, you can ask Changfeng. I will teach you in detail when I come back."

Bai Zhi stared at him without moving.

Gu Yan: "What's wrong?"

Bai Zhi was uncharacteristically serious, saying, "Take care on your journey."

Gu Yan looked at her, then suddenly opened his arms and hugged Bai Zhi into his arms. Bai Zhi patted his back soothingly and heard him whisper in her ear: "Sure."

The next morning, when Bai Zhi woke up, Gu Yan was gone. The floor heating in the wing room was turned on early in the morning, and the room was steaming hot, but Bai Zhi didn't feel dry in the mouth and nose. She looked at the bedside and saw two stools placed side by side, with two large basins of water on them.

The floor heater was so hot that Bai Zhi felt restless. She lifted the quilt, sat up and fanned herself with her sleeves. As she sat down, she saw a neatly folded piece of clothing next to the pillow. She knew at a glance that it was folded by Gu Yan.

Gu Yan folds clothes differently from ordinary people. Ordinary people cross their sleeves and fold them, but he puts one sleeve vertically along the clothes and wraps the other sleeve around to hold up the whole clothes. He then folds the whole clothes from the bottom up, and when he is done folding, there is often one sleeve lying on the clothes, which is very easy to recognize.

She tried to move her shoulders twice, but there was no pain as she had imagined, only a little soreness. She could still lift her arm.

It is impossible that Gu Yan stripped her clothes and applied medicine on her in the middle of the night. It could be that he used some skillful force when he beat her. Although it hurt, it healed quickly.

Bai Zhi looked at her shoulders, the basin, and then her clothes, and said to herself, "Chu Yunchuan, Chu Yunchuan, we are two different people, why do you have to squeeze in together?"

There were two knocks at the door: "Miss, are you awake?"

It was Qiaoqiao. Bai Zhi pulled up her sleeves to cover her right palm and shouted, "Wake up, come in!"

The door opened and closed quickly, letting in only a little bit of snow and wind. Qiaoqiao took off her cloak, placed the food in the lunch box on the table one by one, and said in surprise: "Miss, this room is so warm!"

Bai Zhi asked, "Isn't your room warm?"

"No matter how warm it is, it's not as warm as this room. Who would install floor heating in the side room?" Qiaoqiao said, "But don't worry, young lady. The earthen kang in the side room is connected to the small kitchen. When Chef Xu starts the fire, the kang will be very warm."

"It must be a bit cold in the second half of the night if we only rely on the stove for heating. This is my negligence. Qiaoqiao, call a few servants to install floor heating in the ear room."

"It's not cold, miss. Cook Xu got your order and kept the fire burning in the stove. I put down two layers of mattresses and it's still a little hot."
