Forced love, an inescapable fate

After hearing Qing'er's words, Mu Qingli supported his chin with his hand thoughtfully, and immediately had an idea in his mind.

Feng Zong did not come back within a few days after they left. It seemed that the military affairs were indeed busy.

After Mu Qingli wrote a letter to Jiang Ci, she begged Qing'er to take her to Anran's clinic.

Qing'er didn't agree at first, but she couldn't resist her nagging and finally agreed.

"Princess, Miss An's clinic is very busy and very hard-working. You can just go and see her. Miss An has to see patients every day and may not have time to accompany you."

Mu Qingli patted Qing'er's shoulder and agreed readily.

"Got it. Don't worry, I won't disturb her. I just want to see what kind of girl my brother likes. Oh, and don't tell my brother that I'm going to see Miss An for now."

"Yes, I understand, Princess."

Wanyue had been talking absent-mindedly these past few days, and Mu Qingli thought it was because of what happened before, so she didn't think much about it. After telling Wanyue that she wanted to go out for a walk, she went out with Qing'er. This time they didn't drive a carriage, but chose to walk.

When they arrived at the door of Anhe Hall, Mu Qingli saw An Ran at a glance. She was still wearing white clothes and was still very beautiful and sacred.

Standing at the side of the door, watching her receive four or five patients one after another, being extremely patient with each of them and asking about their conditions in great detail, Mu Qingli also developed a good impression of An Ran from the bottom of her heart.

She stood at the door for a long time, but did not go in to disturb An Ran who was concentrating on treating the patient.

It was not until there were fewer patients that An Ran noticed Mu Qingli standing at the door and Qing'er beside her. She knew Qing'er, and when she saw Qing'er, she had roughly guessed Mu Qingli's identity.

When he first saw Mu Qingli, he was stunned, as if he didn't expect anyone to come here. Then he hurriedly stood up and came to Mu Qingli.

Seeing someone coming over, Mu Qingli smiled and politely called out "Miss An."

When An Ran saw Mu Qingli, she felt bitter. The girl before her had fair skin, a bright smile, and an indescribable aura between her eyebrows. She knew that this was Feng Zong's fiancée. She thought of the two of them growing up together and having a deep relationship. She was a princess, and her status and position were far beyond her own, a mere medical girl. She also knew that the person before her had endured hardships in Qi for many years, and now had finally returned. It was not difficult to hear the sense of guilt in Feng Zong's words. It was true that she liked Feng Zong, but she was not the kind of selfish person who only cared about her own feelings. If they were to get married one day, she would definitely bless them.

Even if I devote my whole life to the clinic, I will never be a selfish person.

In just a short distance, An Ran had already thought a lot. Although she thought so in her heart, the smile on her face looked bitter.

Mu Qingli was also looking at An Ran intently. She had a graceful figure and a beautiful face. Her simple white dress without too much decoration made her look even more elegant and refined. However, her bright eyes that seemed to be able to speak now looked full of worries. Although there was a smile on the corner of her mouth, it always felt a little bitter.

An Ran walked to Mu Qingli's side and was about to salute, but Mu Qingli chuckled and helped her up.

"Miss An, I just came to see you. I hope I didn't disturb you. You are my brother's friend, so you don't need to be polite to me. If you don't mind, you can just call me Ali from now on. How about I call you Sister An?"

Mu Qingli intended to get closer to her, but she did have a good impression of this girl whom she had only met once. But at the same time, she didn't like or was not used to people bowing to her with the title of princess.

An Ran was also very curious about what kind of person this Princess Qingli, whom Feng Zong often mentioned when they were together, was like, but judging from her performance just now, she should be quite good.

She nodded to Mu Qingli and said, "My Lady, you are too polite. I have always heard the general talk about you. After meeting you today, I can see that you are indeed a very good girl, just as the general said. Since you don't mind me, I will respectfully obey your order. Miss Ali, let's go. I will take you in."

Mu Qingli gave her a kind smile, and then she and Qing'er followed her into Anhe Hall.

There were not many patients at the moment, and there were other doctors in the clinic. After An Ran gave a few instructions, she took Mu Qingli and Qing'er to the yard behind the clinic.

Looking at the herbs neatly drying in the yard, Mu Qingli said as she walked, "Sister An, I see the clinic is quite large. You must be very hard-working every day. Sister An is also very capable. I see that those doctors are much older than you, but judging by their respectful attitude towards Sister An just now, Sister An must be a better doctor than them."

Mu Qingli's obvious compliment made Qing'er beside him laugh, and Anran naturally felt that Mu Qingli's compliment was intentional.

She smiled and said, "Miss Ali, you're too kind. But as for the hard work you mentioned, it's certainly a bit hard, but it's a doctor's duty, and it's what we should do."

After passing through the front yard where herbs were drying, you will arrive at Anran's residence. The yard is not big, and there are some herbs planted in an open space inside. The whole yard is filled with a faint medicinal fragrance.

An Ran brought them to her room, which was filled with books. The whole room was extremely simple and quaint. Mu Qingli couldn't help but look around curiously. Just looking at the room, you couldn't tell that its owner was a beautiful girl.

An Ran poured the tea and saw Mu Qingli looking at her room curiously, so she handed the tea in her hand to her.

"Miss Ali, have some tea. My place is simple and I don't have any good tea. Please don't despise me."

She took the tea handed to her by An Ran and said with a smile, "Sister An, you're too polite. Just looking at the medical books in Sister An's room, I can understand why so many people come to see Sister An for treatment."

Mu Qingli admired her from the bottom of her heart. Combining with what Qing'er had said before, she could probably imagine in her mind the difficulty Anran faced in facing the death of her parents and running the clinic alone. She could also imagine that Qing'er said that her medical skills were very good, but behind it was the diligence that ordinary people could hardly muster. For a woman like her, to be able to achieve this in this world was already remarkable.

It is not difficult to guess why Feng Zong likes her. Both of them are strong and resilient people, so it is normal for them to be attracted to each other.

Besides, Qing'er also said that it was Feng Zong who helped An Ran in her most difficult time and helped her take over An He Tang smoothly. With such a sense of friendship, it makes sense for him to pledge his love to him. Moreover, Feng Zong does have the capital to do so.

The young general and the female doctor with superb medical skills are indeed a good CP combination.
