Xu Chengjin felt that he was wronged.

"Delivering a letter to the Wen family in Shengjing by avoiding Song Wenyuan" is easier said than done. In addition, he felt a little guilty, so he carried the letter, of which he had no idea what was written, around in the mountains. It took him most of the night to finally deliver it down the mountain.

After finally breathing a sigh of relief, he naturally took a leisurely journey back. He ate a bowl of hot wontons at the foot of the mountain and found it tasted pretty good, so he brought some for Yuan Ge. However, as soon as he got up the mountain and heard the news that she had also been infected with the "epidemic", his vision went dark and he ran towards this side. As for who got the bowl of wontons that he had brought up the mountain with great effort - he didn't even remember what the boy who delivered the message looked like.

Although she felt wronged at being questioned and disdained by Zhuang Mengdie, she was too lazy to argue with her. She only asked Granny Dou, "How's the situation?"

Grandma Dou's gentle yet somewhat wooden face finally showed a hint of smile. She looked up at the young man who was much taller than her, closed her eyes and shook her head, "I don't know. Master Feng doesn't allow me to enter the house to serve. I don't know what the situation is inside. But Master Feng said that no one is allowed to enter without his permission, including you."

Xu Chengjin stared, "I can't go in either?"

"Yes. You can't come in either."

"What on earth are these master and disciple up to..." Xu Chengjin was still wondering, and asked Granny Dou, "Do you know who is serving in the room now?"

"I know. The Great Elder has left a steward by his side, and the young lady only has a book appraiser, and the others have been sent to the medicine garden." Grandma Dou thought as she continued in a gentle voice, "Old Feng also ordered that except for the servants who deliver meals every day, no one else is allowed to enter or leave the medicine garden at will... Master Nanyin, if you have time, just pay more attention to the news from Shengjing. Otherwise, just take good care of your health and protect yourself." After saying that, she bowed slightly.

Even though the unconscious person lying inside was her beloved little master, she remained calm and composed when she said these words, without any sign of panic.

It makes the bowl of wontons, which ultimately ends up in someone's hands, look awkward and hasty.

Perhaps it was the other person's composure that made Xu Chengjin's anxiety inexplicably lessened. Then, listening to Grandma Dou's words, although she kept saying it was Old Feng's order, Old Feng's instructions, she knew that only Yuan Ge had delivered the letter to Shengjing City. Thinking carefully about these words, he could sense a different meaning - was this Old Feng's instruction, or Yuan Ge's? If it was Yuan Ge's instruction...

This damn girl is really brave!

With such speculation, his face was more annoyed and cruel than before, and he wanted to drag her out of the house and question her thoroughly... But she acted without asking for permission, and made him suffer so much that he was infuriated, annoyed, and distressed. He could not say a single harsh word. In the end, he could only nod helplessly and gently warned, "I understand. Then you take good care of her. If you need anything, just come to me."

The voices are hoarse.

His head was slightly drooped, and he looked depressed. His hair at the back of his head was messy, and he looked very tired, as if he had not slept all night.

Zhuang Mengdie had never seen Nan Yin like this. In her impression, young men always looked too delicate and sophisticated. In her opinion, they lacked some of the masculinity and responsibility that a man should have. In addition, his overly beautiful face made him look like a pale-faced scholar in a picture book - a "useless man" who thought he was handsome and elegant but actually couldn't do anything, and couldn't even protect his wife and children at a critical moment. Now seeing him so depressed and lost but doing nothing, she was so angry that she walked up and slapped Xu Chengjin on the head!

"Sad? What's the point of being sad? You're a grown man, but you don't have any idea what to do when faced with a problem. You won't go in if Senior Feng won't let you in? You can't climb over the wall to get in if someone is blocking you at the door?!"

The slap was quite hard, catching Xu Chengjin off guard. Before he could recover, he was being lashed out with a barrage of scolding. The girl was shorter than him, but that didn't stop her from placing her hands on her hips and looking up at him with all her might. Still feeling unsatisfied, she barked again, "Aren't you known for your mastery of Feng Qingtan's medical skills? Don't you like her?! Then go in and save her! Why didn't you save her?!"

The voice was almost choked, and the expression on his face that was speaking harshly at that time suddenly became a little more broken, and he looked like he was about to cry.

"you……"

Xu Chengjin was stunned. He opened his mouth, but was speechless for a moment. The overlord who was always so aggressive in his image suddenly revealed his fragile nature. But the little girl still stubbornly suppressed her surging emotions, refusing to show any weakness. Even her lips trembled when she spoke. She asked Xu Chengjin over and over again, "Why can't you save her... Why?"

Surprise was replaced by annoyance. Xu Chengjin tightened his fingertips behind him and for a moment didn't know how to explain the current situation to the other party. Yuan Ge really left him with a big problem.

He raised his hand, but hesitated before finally touching the other person's shoulder. He just pressed the corner of his mouth and said softly, "You heard it, I'm going to stay outside and wait for news from Shengjing."

The corners of his mouth were pressed down, and he looked a little tired, and because of his deliberately restrained emotions, he seemed a little inhuman.

Zhuang Mengdie stared at the other person with her eyes wide open, tears welling up in her eyes. After a long while, she suddenly sneered, "Shengjing! Shengjing! Is Shengjing really that important?! Nan Yin, was your previous attachment all an illusion, or are you so annoyed that she's now married that you've harbored resentment and don't even care about her life or death?! If you don't go, I will! Although I don't have medical skills, there will always be a place for me, Zhuang Batian, to be of use!"

After saying that, he flicked his sleeves and left.

How could Grandma Dou stop this angry little girl?

Xu Chengjin was startled, and for a moment he was frantic, pulling the person away and whispering warnings, "Oh, my aunt! Please don't make things more complicated! Since you know her identity, how come you don't know that it is Feng Qingtan's lifeblood? If something really happens, not only me, but everyone in Zhixuan Mountain will have to go in and serve!"

Miss Zhuang slowed down her pace, her face full of doubt, "Really?"

Xu Chengjin was in a state of panic. "Why would I lie to you? If you keep shouting and spilling all her little secrets, she'll wake up and skin you alive!"

Zhuang Mengdie tilted her head and pondered for a moment. Just when Xu Chengjin thought that this little girl could finally make sense, she shook her head, her face full of determination, and rushed in, "No, I'm worried! I still have to go in and take a look - uh!"
