Xie Mishuang frowned slightly, and a light bulb went off in her head, and an idea came to her mind.

"Qing He, go get someone to spread the word that the doctors in our Shuang Nu Tang are all descendants of the great Divine Doctor Li, and they have superb medical skills and can bring people back to health with their miraculous hands!"

Qinghe nodded in agreement and went to do it immediately.

At this moment, Ah Fu returned, knelt on one knee, clasped his fists and reported: "Your Majesty, I have already found out that the little girl was forcibly taken away by the guards of the Shang Mansion."

"Shang Mansion?" Xie Mishuang's heart trembled, and a chill ran from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.

In his previous life, Shang Zhize, the eldest son of the Shang family, had a little-known habit - pedophilia!

This incident only came to light when the women who were harmed by him grew up to middle age and some of them came forward to accuse him. Otherwise, no one would have known about it.

It seems that in this life, Shang Zhize has started to keep young girls in captivity, and the girl I just saw is one of them!

A hint of ruthlessness flashed in Xie Mi's eyes. If it was revealed that he was a pedophile and persecuted young girls, the Shang family would never be able to clear themselves even if they jumped into the fire pit!

Qing He acted quickly. After spreading the name of Doctor Li, not long after, a middle-aged woman appeared hesitantly at the door of the clinic.

Judging from her attire, the woman seemed to be a concubine of a merchant family. She was dressed in silk and satin, looking gorgeous. She had gold bracelets on her hands and pearl earrings on her ears, but the styles were a bit old-fashioned and did not match her gaudy outfit.

She stood at the door of the clinic, pacing back and forth, occasionally peeking inside, her eyes flickering, as if she was engaged in some psychological struggle.

"Madam, are you here for a medical consultation?" Ah Xi had sharp eyes and spotted the middle-aged woman lingering at the door. He quickly stood up and went out to greet her.

The woman was startled by Ah Xi and tried to cover up in a panic, "No...nothing, I was just passing by and took a look..."

Ah Xi saw through the woman's thoughts at a glance and said with a smile, "Madam, our clinic is open today. All consultations are half price, and the herbs are 20% off. If you feel unwell, why not come in and see us?"

When the woman heard this, she was immediately moved.

She hesitated for a moment, but finally gritted her teeth and followed Ah Xi into the clinic.

Inside the clinic, Ah Xi sat at the consultation seat, while Xie Mishuang and Qing He played the role of pharmacists, sorting the herbs while secretly observing the woman's reaction.

"Doctor, are you...are you really the disciple of Dr. Li?" The woman twisted the handkerchief in her hand nervously, her eyes full of suspicion.

Ah Xi smiled slightly and said calmly, "Madam, I am not the disciple of Divine Doctor Li, but my master is the direct disciple of Divine Doctor Li, so I can be considered the grand-disciple of Divine Doctor Li."

When the woman heard this, she was stunned. She looked Ah Xi up and down and said suspiciously, "You little girl, why do you speak in the same tone as my maid? You're also the granddaughter of Doctor Li. You're such a boast! But... since I'm here, please help me take a look first."

Ah Xi was not annoyed, and still asked with a smile: "Excuse me, Madam, where do you feel uncomfortable?"

The woman blushed and stammered, "I... I feel sick in my stomach..."

"Oh? Do you have any symptoms recently?" Ah Xi continued to ask.

A trace of embarrassment crossed the woman's face. She bit her lip, unable to utter a word for a long time. "I...I...ah, I'm too embarrassed to say it out loud, it's just...it's just some female illness...How about you just prescribe me some painkillers..."

Ah Xi looked at the woman's embarrassed expression and understood what she meant.

"Madam, we are all women, there is nothing to be embarrassed about," Ah Xi saw the woman's embarrassed expression and quickly said softly, "You tell me so that I can prescribe medicine for you."

Unexpectedly, when the woman heard this, her face suddenly darkened and her tone became sarcastic, "Looking at your age, you should not be married yet? You dare to say such things before your hair has even grown out. You are so shameless! Forget it, I won't watch it anymore!" After that, she turned around and was about to leave.

Ah Xi didn't expect that his good intentions would instead make the woman angry and embarrassed. She stood there for a while, at a loss as to what to do.

"Wait!" Seeing the woman about to leave the clinic, Ah Xi hurriedly chased after her, "Madam, please don't be angry, I..."

"Go away! Don't touch me!" The woman shook off Ah Xi's hand and said angrily, "I've seen enough of your clinic. You have no rules at all! I want to see how long you can stay open with this kind of behavior!"

The woman's movements immediately attracted the attention of other patients in the clinic and they began to whisper to each other.

"What's going on? Why are you arguing?"

"Who knows? Maybe the patient and the doctor had an argument."

Listening to the pointing and talking of people around her, the woman felt her face burning and she wished she could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.

She glared at Ah Xi fiercely and was about to leave.

At this moment, Xie Mishuang suddenly moved.

She walked quickly to the woman, grabbed her wrist without saying a word, and gently placed her slender fingers on her pulse.

"Madam, we happen to have a cure for your disease. Are you really not going to consider it?" Xie Mishuang's tone was calm, but it revealed an unquestionable majesty.

The woman was stunned for a moment, then she violently shook off Xie Mishuang's hand and angrily said, "Who are you? Why do you grab my hand so casually? Is there any law?"

"This is my master." Ah Xi explained quickly.

"Master?" The woman looked Xie Mishuang up and down. Seeing that she was young and dressed in plain clothes, and although she had an extraordinary temperament, she did not seem to have any superb medical skills, she became even more suspicious. "Her? Master? I think you two are clearly birds of a feather, teaming up to deceive people!"

"Madam, this illness of yours has been bothering you for a long time, right?" Xie Mishuang's voice sounded faintly behind the woman.

The woman paused, but did not look back.

"If I'm not mistaken, you've been suffering from this illness for at least a decade, right?" Xie Mishuang continued. "Over the years, you've sought medical treatment and medication everywhere, but your condition hasn't improved. It's even gotten worse. Am I right?"

The woman shuddered, turned around abruptly, and looked at Xie Mishuang in disbelief, "You...how did you know?"

Xie Mishuang didn't answer her question. Instead, he smiled faintly and said, "Are you still ashamed of yourself in the mansion because of this illness? Even the servants dare to point fingers at you?"

"You...you..." The woman's face turned pale and blue, her eyes full of shock and panic.

She never imagined that this seemingly young woman could see through the secret that she had hidden in the deepest part of her heart all these years at a glance!

"Who are you?" the woman asked in a trembling voice.

"It doesn't matter who I am," Xie Mishuang smiled faintly, "What matters is that I can cure your illness."
