But this woman was actually asking me for money again!

Is she crazy about money?

He was only concerned with coming here with Ye Qingluo, and did not bring any paper or pen. Apart from venting his anger with his actions and eyes, he could not do anything else.

"My Lord, the wood used for this table is very expensive. If it breaks, you will have to pay for it. Have you forgotten about the ten thousand taels?" Ye Qingluo sighed softly, "If the matter gets to His Royal Highness the Regent, there is no guarantee what will happen."

Although Chu Beiyu was angry, he understood that what Ye Qingluo said made sense.

When he thought about asking for money, he couldn't swallow the anger in his heart, and he really couldn't face Ye Qingluo calmly.

In desperation, Chu Beiyu could only take out a jade pendant he was carrying and put it on the table.

She often saw Chu Beiyu wearing this jade pendant.

Ye Qingluo picked up the jade pendant. Judging from the material, it was quite valuable. The most important thing was that it was something he carried with him, so perhaps it could play a big role in the future.

"My Lord, do you want to use this jade pendant to pay for the consultation?"

Chu Beiyu nodded reluctantly. Although the jade pendant was his personal belonging, Ye Qingluo was a member of the Marquis' Mansion, so if he wanted to take it back in the future, he would just have to find an opportunity.

The most important thing now is treatment.

"Then I'll take it."

"Stretch out your wrist."

Ye Qingluo took Chu Beiyu's pulse and judging from his pulse, there was indeed nothing wrong with this man. Even the medicinal effect of the tea he drank that day was gradually losing its effect.

Even without medical treatment, he would be able to recover in a few hours.

But now that Chu Beiyu is here, how can we justify what we did before if we don’t let him suffer a little?

She took out an acupuncture bag filled with silver needles from the medicine box nearby and pulled out the thickest ones.

The moment he saw the silver needle, Chu Beiyu quickly withdrew his hand, his eyes full of horror.

Aren't silver needles usually long and thin? How could one be so thick? If one were to be stabbed in the stomach, could a person really withstand it?

Chu Beiyu couldn't help but doubt Ye Qingluo.

Is she trying to make trouble for herself on purpose?

Chu Beiyu pointed at the thinnest one and signaled Ye Qingluo with his eyes to use this one.

"My Lord, do you know how to heal or do I?"

"If you are unwilling to cooperate, please leave."

Chu Beiyu would not leave like this. He had given away all the jade pendants he had with him, and the situation had not improved. How could he let it go?

After hesitating, Chu Beiyu still stretched out his hand.

Ye Qingluo curled the corners of his lips and stabbed Chu Beiyu's arm.

hiss.

The moment the silver needle fell, Chu Beiyu took a breath of cold air. Even though he had been through hundreds of battles and those minor injuries and pains were nothing, he was still shocked by the pain brought by the silver needle.

This kind of pain lasted for half an hour. Just when Chu Beiyu was about to be unable to bear it, he saw Ye Qingluo pulling out one of the strands.

"Ye Qingluo, what on earth do you want to do!"

Chu Beiyu shouted almost subconsciously, and just as he finished speaking, he was startled again.

Can he speak?

"Now, my Lord, do you know what I am going to do?"

Ye Qingluo asked back.

Chu Beiyu didn't say anything, but just snorted softly. When he saw that she was about to take out the remaining silver needles, he reminded her, "Be gentle!"

"My Lord, these silver needles cannot be taken lightly."

Every time Ye Qingluo pulled out a silver needle, he would hear a muffled groan from Chu Beiyu. After all the silver needles were taken out, Chu Beiyu felt as if all his strength had been drained from him.

Looking at Chu Beiyu like this, Ye Qingluo's eyes were full of contempt.

"My Lord, you have been on the battlefield after all. How can you not bear this little pain?"

"Return the jade pendant to me!"

Chu Beiyu, who was able to speak, did not hide his anger at all.

"return?"

Ye Qingluo said disdainfully, "I treated the Marquis, and the jade pendant was originally paid as payment for the consultation. How can I return it?"

"My Lord, are you trying to deny your guilt? That's fine. I will report to the police right now and tell them that someone is causing trouble at Huichun Hall."

"But with the status of a marquis, I'm afraid that he will end up in the hands of the Supreme Court. I just don't know what will happen in the end..."

"enough!"

Chu Beiyu felt annoyed when he heard this, "If you want to keep it, be careful!"

"If you dare to lose it, I will not forgive you."

Ye Qingluo clicked his tongue and said, "Then I can't guarantee that. Once the things are in my hands, I have the final say on how to deal with them."

"Your Excellency has no right to interfere in this matter."

"Ye Qingluo!"

"My Lord, please be careful. Although you can speak now, I can't guarantee that you won't become aphasic again."

"You... are so nice!"

Chu Beiyu looked at Ye Qingluo, how could he not hear the threat in his words? He took a long time before saying these words.

Just then, there was a noise outside.

"Tell your shopkeeper to come out immediately. My young lady's face has become like this after using your beauty serum!"

"Shouldn't you give an explanation?"

When they heard it was related to beauty serum, everyone looked over. Chu Beiyu's expression changed slightly and he walked out.

I saw a woman standing in the crowd with several attendants. The woman had a veil on her face.

Li Er looked at the attendants gathered here, then glanced at the woman over there, and asked, "You just said that you used the beauty serum we sell and that's why you became like this. Do you have any evidence?"

"Or maybe some proof, and maybe the bottle of beauty serum?"

"What voucher and bottle?"

"Who would care after using up those things? Boss, are you trying to deny your responsibility?"

"My young lady is the daughter of the governor's family. If anything goes wrong, can you afford it?"

"If you want to treat it, then that's fine. But if you say it was caused by the beauty serum, then you still need to provide evidence."

"For anyone who has bought beauty serum from us, we will keep a record of every bottle and issue a receipt."

"If you don't believe me, you can go ask. Even if this matter goes to the government, we have evidence to rely on!"

"What a big tone! To put it bluntly, you just don't want to admit your mistakes. Everyone, come and see, this Huichuntang has harmed our young lady to this extent, and now that something has happened, you still don't want to admit it!"

"Those of you who have bought beauty serum before should be careful."

At the shout of the servant beside the girl, passers-by and people in Huichun Hall all gathered around.

Chu Beiyu looked at Ye Qingluo unkindly, "How do you explain this matter?"

"My Lord, can't you see that they are here to cause trouble on purpose?"

Ye Qingluo came in front of the woman and said to Li Er, "Go and take out the registration book and see if there is any daughter of the patrol officer among those who are here to buy beauty serum."

"As for this lady, I'm curious about why you can remain so calm since you have suffered so much from this?"

"Or are you not in any trouble at all, and you are just trying to cause trouble?"
