Madam, please respect my profession.

Chapter 119 How can curing illnesses and saving lives be considered hooliganism?

About a cup of tea ago.

Perhaps it was the gentle care of the sunset glow, or perhaps it was the whisper of the gentle breeze, but Ling Jiaoyue slowly woke up after being unconscious for a whole night.

What caught my eye was an unfamiliar silk string carved canopy bed, with a small acacia screen placed beside the bed, facing the crabapple window. The sunlight poured in slowly, mixing with the burning incense in the incense burner to create a warm fragrance.

The warm yet unfamiliar room shocked Ling Jiaoyue.

What happened yesterday came to her mind. She remembered that before she fainted, she seemed to see Lu Zhan walking towards her and feeding her a pill.

"Did he save me..."

Ling Jiaoyue's mind was in a mess and her memories were incoherent, but the place in front of her was obviously not a sect, nor was it a place she was familiar with.

She sat up subconsciously, and the soft quilt slid down her delicate body. The pain she imagined did not come, but a cool breeze blew, making her chest feel cool.

She subconsciously lowered her head and saw that her upper body clothes were gone, leaving only her bellyband, and her delicate body was exposed.

"!!!"

Ling Jiaoyue felt like she was struck by lightning. She forced herself not to scream, but her delicate body couldn't stop shaking.

She was not like an ordinary woman. When she saw the scar on her chest disappear, she knew that the other party was trying to save her and not take advantage of her on purpose.

But she is a girl after all, and it is extremely embarrassing to show herself in this state.

Fortunately, her long skirt was still there, which was some comfort. However, after the other party treated her injuries, he was unwilling to help her put on her top. When she woke up and saw herself in this state, she was inevitably confused.

Ling Jiaoyue didn't care about anything else. She got out of bed wrapped in the quilt and soon saw her shirt on the low table not far away. She hurriedly pulled it into the quilt, put it on in a hurry, and gathered her messy hair. Only then did she look normal.

If I were to wake up and still face people in the way I just did, it would be better for me to die.

But he must have seen it. The injury healed so quickly, it must have been Doctor Ye's help. Even if there was a glimmer of luck in her heart, Ling Jiaoyue still had to face reality.

The sound of birds flapping their wings came from outside the window. The birds landed on the stained glass window, shaking their feathers, and staring at her with their round black eyes.

Ling Jiaoyue bit her lower lip lightly, her snow-white cheeks seemed to be dripping with blood. She suddenly thought of Lu Zhan and wondered if he was also staring at her like this bird when he was treating her injuries last night.

At this time, the bird spoke up: "Mr. Xiao Lu's wife, are you awake?"

Ling Jiaoyue hurriedly looked up and saw that the bird had colorful feathers all over its body and was not an mortal bird. She immediately realized that the bird was intelligent and was probably the spiritual bird raised by Lu Zhan.

But that's not the point, the point is...

"Mr. Lu's wife? It's Lu Zhan." Ling Jiaoyue's face was burning. She looked at the skylark with a cold face: "Did he say that?"

Yun Que shook his head: "He said you are not his wife, but he took off your clothes last night. According to the rules of the human world, you should be his wife. Although he does not admit it, maybe he is shy."

shy? !

Although the two were not familiar with each other and she did not know Lu Zhan well, based on Lu Zhan's reputation in the martial arts world, he had nothing to do with shyness, but she did not want to waste words with a skylark.

However, Yun Que's words reminded her that even Yun Que had misunderstood her relationship with Lu Zhan. If this matter were to get out, her reputation would be ruined.

Although cultivators do not have as many taboos as ordinary people, she is a girl after all, and has never even held hands with a man. Yet this time she was seen almost completely by others, which is really hard to accept.

Lu Zhan doesn't seem to be at home at the moment. Instead of waiting for him to come and causing embarrassment, it would be better to leave now. At least we don't have to face each other.

Ling Jiaoyue found her sword and ran away.

After leaving the room, he thought about how he left without saying goodbye, which seemed impolite. But then he thought that although it was an accident, the injury was caused by her, so he let her be rude this time.

Although the wound on her chest had healed, her meridians still needed to be nursed back to health. Now she was unable to circulate Qi and could only walk towards the gate holding the sword.

Unexpectedly, before he walked out of the yard, he ran into a big man with a black face walking towards him.

The two looked at each other in a weird atmosphere.

The dark-faced man was stunned for a moment, and then he was overjoyed: "I was wondering what was going on with Guanqi... It turns out this guy actually has a mistress! Don't be afraid, sister-in-law, I'm Guanqi's colleague, and I have a close relationship with him."

The dark-faced man was Xie Chunyan.

Xie Chunyan was not very dark originally, but after he came to Jinling, he patrolled the streets every day and did not use the true Qi to maintain his complexion, so he naturally became darker.

At this time, Xie Chunyan looked at the girl in front of him, his face as if filled with spring breeze, but he was cursing in his heart.

Lu Guanqi is such a bastard, no wonder he didn’t even go to Lanxiefang Huamanlou these two days, and even asked for leave... I thought this guy was unwell, but it turns out that he actually kept a beautiful wife at home... It’s okay to keep her secretly, but Lu Guanqi, you even hid it from your brother.

Xie Chunyan felt deeply hurt and criticized Lu Zhan harshly in his heart, "Don't you even trust the best Chun Ge? Can Chun Ge go out and say nonsense?"

Ling Jiaoyue's face changed drastically. She never expected to meet someone at this time. The hand holding the sword trembled slightly, and her expression as cold as jade was difficult to maintain.

She was a little defensive and even wanted to die.

Originally, he wanted to avoid Lu Zhan to avoid embarrassment for both of them, but he didn't expect to bump into Lu Zhan's colleague before he even left the house, and the other party misunderstood him.

Ling Jiaoyue turned around immediately. Her fame was on par with Jiang Ningshuang and she was very popular in the Great Zhou. Although many people had never seen her in person, they had seen her portrait. If she was recognized by the man in front of her, her face and reputation would surely be gone.

The atmosphere was awkward.

It was at this time that Lu Zhan came back carrying a bag of sunflower seeds.

...

The morning sun was warm, and with someone taking care of it, the ginkgo tree grew more vigorous, now blocking out most of the daylight.

Xie Chunyan's expression was excited and angry. Ling Jiaoyue had her back to him, holding a long sword.

The King Skylark was staring on the branch, looking like he was eating a melon.

"What are you doing?" Lu Zhan said dimly.

Seeing him coming back, Xie Chunyan took two steps at a time and came up to him, angrily saying, "Guanqi, you are too unkind. You hid your brother and sister-in-law from your family, and brought them to the Demon Suppression Division to have a feast. How come you didn't even tell Chun Ge? Am I still your best brother?"

"You will always be my best brother." one.

Xie Chunyan was satisfied and praised: "You are so beautiful, I think you are as beautiful as the legendary Frost Moon Fairy. You are so lucky. But I was too loud just now, maybe I offended you. I apologize to you."

Ling Jiaoyue's hand holding the sword was shaking more and more.

Lu Zhan said angrily, "Brother Chun, what nonsense are you talking about? Our relationship is not what you think. I passed by the outskirts of Jinling last night and saw her seriously injured, so I rescued her. Brother Chun, please don't talk nonsense. This will damage Miss Ling's reputation."

"Miss Ling?" Xie Chunyan blinked.

Ling Jiaoyue suddenly gritted her teeth and said, "My name is Lin Yuejiao. I have been practicing martial arts since I was young. Yesterday, I saw a thief doing evil in the suburbs, so I tried to stop him. I never thought that the thief was so powerful."

She said this with gritted teeth, but she didn't dare to reveal her true identity.

Since Xie Chunyan didn't seem to recognize her identity, this was a good thing for Ling Jiaoyue... She just said a random name to prevent the other party from having any wild thoughts. It would be embarrassing if he thought of her.

Seeing that the two spoke in a serious tone and did not seem to be lying, Xie Chunyan was immediately indignant: "I'm sorry, Chunge misunderstood you. Chunge apologizes first. But how could there be such a thief in the suburbs of Jinling? And he was so cruel to attack the girl? It's simply crazy. Who is this thief? If I meet him, I will kill him!"

Ling Jiaoyue did not turn around, but just glanced at Lu Zhan with a look full of resentment.

Lu Zhan replied angrily: "I heard from Miss Lin that the thief is a bastard from the Black Water Sect."

"As expected!" Xie Chunyan was furious: "It wasn't enough that these bastards killed you and Miss Chu last time, but now they are committing evil in the suburbs of Jinling again, and they are so cruel!"

“Yes, if I hadn’t passed by, Miss Lin would have died. You must not spread this matter, otherwise Miss Lin’s reputation will be ruined.” Lu Zhan sighed, which was also an explanation to Ling Jiaoyue.

In an emergency, we have to take the necessary measures. Taking off your clothes is not being rude, but it is the only way out.

Ling Jiaoyue remained silent.

Xie Chunyan patted his chest and said, "I understand. I know what to say and what not to say."

At this point, Xie Chunyan pulled Lu Zhan aside and whispered, "Guanqi, even though you saved him, you can't be rude to him just because you saved his life."

Lu Zhan was furious: "Brother Chun always speaks vulgar words. How can curing illnesses and saving lives be called hooliganism? Am I that kind of person?"

"I'm just reminding you. I'm afraid you won't be able to control yourself and do something wrong, since Miss Lin is so beautiful." Xie Chunyan patted Lu Zhan on the shoulder and said, "Since you know what's going on, I won't bother you anymore. It's inconvenient for me to be here. I heard that you asked for leave, so I came to see you. Since you're fine, I'll continue my patrol."

When Ling Jiaoyue heard what the two said, she felt even more ashamed and angry, but she didn't know what to say in response.

After Xie Chunyan left, Lu Zhan closed the door tightly to prevent anyone else from coming in.

Ling Jiaoyue glanced at Lu Zhan with a hot face, but she still turned around and followed him into the room.

After Lu Zhan entered the house, the Skylark King quietly poked his head out from the leaves, looked at the bag of sunflower seeds on the stone table, turned around twice with a "chirp chirp" sound, and then flew down to eat the seeds.

……

"Miss Ling, are you planning to leave without saying goodbye? Don't you really want to see your savior? Luckily, Brother Chun didn't recognize you. If he had recognized you, the consequences would have been disastrous."

Lu Zhan knew very well that no matter how good Chun Ge's promises were, it would be useless. This guy couldn't keep secrets. Even if he restrained himself when he was sober, he would tell everything after two drinks.

Fortunately, Ling Jiaoyue was alert. After fighting him, she immediately turned around and made up a fake name for herself.

"Who knew I would meet your colleagues when I go out? Besides, wasn't it you who injured me? I don't mind if you... you take off my clothes. I just don't want to create embarrassment when we meet." Ling Jiaoyue's previous cold and indifferent expression was no longer seen, replaced by gnashing of teeth.

Lu Zhan looked at her gritting her teeth and felt that it was much better than her previous cold attitude. She was like a person in a painting before, but now it was like the person in the painting came alive.

However, he did not tease the other party, but just said: "Didn't you want to kill me yesterday? It's just that my strength is higher than yours, otherwise I would be seriously injured."

Ling Jiaoyue was suddenly speechless. This was exactly what happened yesterday. She had shown no mercy to Lu Zhan, but he was just not strong enough.

Seeing her silence, Lu Zhan explained, "Although it was a misunderstanding, you were indeed injured by me, so I had no choice but to bring you back. The situation was urgent at the time, so I could only take off your clothes, but I didn't do anything else except help you heal your wounds."

These words were spoken sincerely, and Ling Jiaoyue had no doubts. In fact, she did not suspect Lu Zhan's motives at first, but as a girl, it was a little difficult for her to face it.

Now that things have come to this, she couldn't let it go and said, "I didn't expect it was you. I originally planned to kill No. 3 because he is most familiar with No. 4 and may be able to see through my identity... How did you get No. 3's soul bowl?"

She obtained the Soul Bowl purely with the help of the sect. The Black Water Sect's methods were quite meticulous, and it was very difficult to sneak in. The elders of the sect had studied it for many years and finally came up with a solution recently. Only then did she obtain the number four Soul Bowl. However, according to Lu Zhan's situation, he should not have such an opportunity.

"I just relied on luck." Lu Zhan told the story of his encounter with the Southern Border Witch and Zhi Gang. It was not a secret.

Ling Jiaoyue was surprised: "This... my luck is too good. I captured No. 4 the day before yesterday and brought him back to the sect for interrogation. Only then did I know that he was going to meet No. 3. The Yunshui Sect has been studying the Soul Bowl for many years and finally found a flaw, so I was able to hide."

"You're going to meet No. 3 alone?" Lu Zhan said, "That's a bit reckless."

Ling Jiaoyue gritted her teeth and said, "Of course I brought my fellow disciples with me. If we encounter danger, I will blow the whistle and they will come to rescue us. And at that time, No. 4 was at the peak of the Dehumanization Realm. According to his explanation, No. 3 was also at the Dehumanization Realm."

"Although we didn't believe it blindly, based on various inferences, we also suspect that those who came to Jinling are all young backbones of the Black Water Sect. Their strength should be similar, and it is enough for them to carry a sound transmission whistle."

"Who would have thought it would be you last night? You punched me and sent me flying. There was no room for easing up. I didn't even have the strength to blow the whistle."

At the end of the conversation, Ling Jiaoyue gritted her teeth. She didn't think there was anything wrong with her plan, but she didn't expect that number three was Lu Zhan who was lurking.

"So this is the reason why No. 4 delayed his appointment?" Lu Zhan asked.

"Yes, I wasn't ready at that time."

Thinking about what happened last night, Ling Jiaoyue regretted it immensely. If she had been more careful, perhaps she wouldn't have ended up in this situation.

Lu Zhan looked at her expression and felt a little happy in his heart. The cold and indifferent Moon Fairy was, after all, a young girl. When faced with such a thing, she would be as shy as an ordinary girl.

"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone about what happened last night." Lu Zhan said, "There have been a lot of things going on in Nanjing recently. Not only are the people from the Black Water Sect causing trouble, but the people from the Hehuan Sect are also stirring up trouble. No one will pay attention to Fairy Yue. Even if Chun Ge realizes it later, there are so many similar people in the world. As long as you and I don't recognize each other, there will be no problem."

Ling Jiaoyue calmed down and said expressionlessly: "You still know about the Hehuan Sect?"

Lu Zhan didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "I am from the Demon Suppression Bureau after all, so what if I am more well-informed?"

"Then have you heard that the witch from the Hehuan Sect paid a high price to hire a killer from the Qi Jue Sect to kill someone." Ling Jiaoyue glanced at him and said, "Isn't she trying to kill you? I heard that Mr. Lu has been involved in many romantic affairs. Could it be that the witch is involved?"

Lu Zhan raised his eyebrows. He had just heard the story of the Qi Jue Sect yesterday. He didn’t expect that the Qi Jue Sect would really come before him. However, they certainly wouldn’t come to kill him, but he might know the person they wanted to kill.

Ling Jiaoyue's words were irritating. Lu Zhan said, "If I were really the kind of person the rumors say I was, I would have done it on impulse last night. Could it be that Fairy Yue thinks she can still remain intact?"

Ling Jiaoyue was suddenly speechless.
