I am the Holy Poisoner, the Empress advised me to calm down

After saying that, she ran out like a rabbit, forgetting to close the door.

Zhang Jun looked at her flustered back and couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly. This girl is really...

He walked over, closed the door, and lay back down on the bed. But the scene just now could not be shaken off, and the warmth and softness of the woman in his arms made him feel uneasy.

At this time, Liu Ying had already fled back to her room, curled up in the quilt, her face burning as if it was about to burn.

At that moment, she actually had the urge not to leave. Zhang Jun's embrace was warm and safe, making her feel like she wanted to stay with him forever.

"Liu Ying, Liu Ying, what are you thinking about?" She covered her head with the quilt, feeling shy and sweet in her heart.

Both of them couldn't sleep that night.

The next morning, Liu Ying woke up early but didn't dare to go see Zhang Jun. Last night's events were so embarrassing that she blushed and her heart raced whenever she thought about them.

"Miss, why are you up so early today?" The maid Xiao Cui came in with water for washing her face. "Usually you sleep until noon."

"I can't sleep." Liu Ying responded casually, but she was thinking about how to face Zhang Jun.

"By the way, Miss, Mr. Zhang asked me to tell you that the old man is in good condition today and the medicine has been changed to a new prescription." Xiao Cui said as she helped Liu Ying wash up.

When Liu Ying heard Zhang Jun's name, her hands trembled and she almost dropped the towel to the ground.

"Did he...did he say anything else?" Liu Ying tried to make her voice sound normal.

"No, Mr. Zhang doesn't talk much. After giving instructions, he went to see the old man." Xiao Cui looked at Liu Ying in surprise. "Miss, why is your face so red?"

"It's hot." Liu Ying made up an excuse.

After Xiao Cui left, Liu Ying looked at herself in the mirror and found that she was indeed as red as a ripe persimmon.

"No, we can't go on like this." She took a deep breath and tried to calm down. "Let's just pretend what happened last night never happened. We're all adults, it's no big deal."

Comforting herself in this way, Liu Ying finally mustered up the courage to leave the room.

As soon as I walked into the yard, I saw Zhang Jun taking Liu Hong's pulse. The old man looked much better than yesterday, and was chatting with Zhang Jun with a smile.

"Ying'er is here." Liu Hong saw his granddaughter and waved, "Come over here and thank Zhang Xiaoyou. If it weren't for him, Grandpa would be dead."

Liu Ying walked over reluctantly, not daring to look Zhang Jun in the eye: "Mr. Zhang, thank you so much for what happened yesterday."

"It's just a piece of cake." Zhang Jun said lightly, looking natural, as if nothing had happened last night.

Liu Ying secretly glanced at him and found that he was indeed normal. She felt relieved but also a little disappointed. Could it be that what happened last night really had no effect on him?

"Oh, right, Wang Dingguo came again yesterday," Liu Hong suddenly said. "The old man is now completely in awe of Young Master Zhang. He knelt outside the door early in the morning and said he wanted to formally become his disciple."

Zhang Jun frowned: "Didn't I say that I would only accept him as a nominal disciple?"

"He said being a nominal disciple wasn't sincere enough, and that I had to kowtow and become his disciple." Liu Hong laughed, "This old man is quite persistent."

As he was speaking, Wang Dingguo was led in by the housekeeper. The famous doctor who had been so arrogant yesterday now looked like a completely different person, following behind respectfully, holding a bunch of gifts in his hands.

"Master, I greet you!" Wang Dingguo was about to kneel down when he saw Zhang Jun.

"Okay, stop kneeling all the time." Zhang Jun said impatiently, "If you have something to say, stand up and talk."

"Master, I thought about it carefully yesterday. Your Seven-Star Life-Sustaining Needle is truly miraculous!" Wang Dingguo said excitedly. "I've studied medicine for thirty years, and I've never seen such exquisite acupuncture techniques!"

"So what?" Zhang Jun asked.

"So, I want to formally become your disciple and learn your medical skills!" Wang Dingguo said as he was about to kneel down again. "I am willing to offer all my family property as a gift!"

Zhang Jun stopped him: "I told you I'll only accept you as a registered disciple. If you don't want to, forget it."

"No, no, no, disciple is willing!" Wang Dingguo waved his hands quickly, "I'll just be a registered disciple, as long as I can study beside Master!"

"That's good." Zhang Jun nodded. "But I have one condition. You are not allowed to call yourself a miracle doctor anymore. A doctor should be humble."

"Disciple, I understand!" Wang Dingguo nodded repeatedly. "From now on, I will never again be so arrogant!"

Liu Ying watched this scene from the side, her admiration for Zhang Jun growing even stronger. How powerful was this man to convince the famous doctors in Beijing so completely?

Just then, the housekeeper rushed in.

"Master, this is bad!" The housekeeper looked panicked. "A group of people came outside, saying they are looking for Master Zhang!"

"Looking for me?" Zhang Jun was a little surprised. "Who?"

"They don't look like good people." The butler lowered his voice and said, "The leader is a middle-aged man with a face full of flesh. He is accompanied by a dozen thugs and looks very aggressive."

Liu Hong's expression changed: "Is he here to seek revenge?"

Zhang Jun thought about it and realized that he hadn't offended many people recently, mainly the Zhang family. But they shouldn't come knocking on his door so soon.

"I'll go out and take a look." Zhang Jun stood up.

"Mr. Zhang, why don't we report it to the police?" Liu Ying said worriedly.

"No need." Zhang Jun shook his head. "I can handle my own affairs myself."

Everyone followed Zhang Jun to the gate of the Liu family's house, where they saw a middle-aged man with a face full of flesh standing at the door with a dozen thugs. Each of those men was a big and strong man, and it was obvious at first glance that they were not good people.

"Are you Zhang Jun?" The middle-aged man saw Zhang Jun and a hint of viciousness flashed in his eyes. "I'm Boss Ma, and I'm here to settle accounts with you!"

Zhang Jun looked at Boss Ma carefully, confirming that he had never seen him before. "What do we have to settle?"

"Don't play dumb!" Boss Ma said angrily. "Yesterday you caused trouble in my casino and injured one of my people. How do you want to settle this?"

Zhang Jun finally understood what had happened at the casino yesterday. It seemed that Boss Ma was the boss behind the casino.

"Your people started it first," Zhang Jun said calmly, "and I won the money and left without causing any trouble."

"Bullshit!" Boss Ma cursed. "You're just a brat, what right do you have to act so arrogantly on my territory? If I don't give you an explanation today, you can't leave!"

Liu Ming rushed over at this time. Seeing this situation, he quickly stepped forward and said, "Boss, if you have something to say, let's talk it over. Why are you being so hostile?"

"Who are you?" Boss Ma glared at Liu Ming impatiently.

"My name is Liu Ming, and this is the Liu Mansion." Liu Ming tried to be polite. "Mr. Zhang is our honored guest. If there is any misunderstanding, we can sit down and talk it over."
