Forced love, an inescapable fate

Su Minsheng hurried over on the second day after Mu Qingli woke up.

With Jiang Ci's recommendation, he entered the Imperial Medical Service.

Su Minsheng was a skilled doctor, and he cured the empress dowager's long-standing illness with just one stroke. When the news got out, many concubines and ministers lined up to see him, and he was extremely busy during this period.

When he received the news that Mu Qingli had woken up yesterday, he was treating the imperial concubine. He wanted to leave the palace immediately, but he really couldn't get away. After all, his patient was the emperor's most beloved imperial concubine.

When he finally finished his work and hurried to the Princess's Mansion, he was told that everyone had gone to bed. He waited outside the door for two hours before finally having to leave.

After he finished acupuncture for the imperial concubine today, he did not even take a rest and hurried to the princess's mansion.

This time, the guards in the mansion did not stop him too much, and he arrived at the courtyard where Mu Qingli was smoothly.

Standing at the door, he tried to calm himself down before walking into the room under Wanyue's guidance.

Mu Qingli recovered well. Yesterday she could only sit up with the help of others, but today she can slowly get up by herself. The kitchen prepared medicinal food for her, and she was eating it contentedly at this time.

And I got the final answer from Feng Zong yesterday, so I feel relaxed both physically and mentally now, and even the wounds on my body don’t hurt much anymore.

Although medicinal ingredients were added to this medicinal meal, she learned from Wanyue that the chef in the mansion was specially hired by Jiang Ci from the most famous restaurant in Beijing. His cooking skills were naturally first-class, and even a simple bowl of medicinal meal was cooked quite well, so she was smiling while eating it.

Seeing that the bowl of medicinal food was almost empty, she was still persuading the little maid Liuyun who was serving her to give her another bowl.

"Liuyun, I'll just drink a little bit, okay? Just a little bit."

Liuyun shook her head like a rattle. Wanyue had already told her that the princess should not eat too much after waking up.

"Princess, Sister Wanyue has instructed that you can only drink this bowl. You just woke up, so you can't eat more. When you feel better, Sister Wanyue will naturally ask the kitchen to cook you a variety of dishes."

When Wanyue and Su Minsheng came in, they saw Mu Qingli pitifully asking the little girl standing in front of the bed for food.

The moment he saw Mu Qingli, Su Minsheng felt his heart tremble. She finally appeared in front of him safely.

When Mu Qingli saw the two of them, he was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes instantly became bright, "Brother Su, you are here."

Su Minsheng looked almost exactly the same as he did three years ago, and time had left no trace on him.

Seeing that Mu Qingli was not as weak as he had imagined, but in good spirits, he let out a long sigh, then a smile appeared on his face, and he walked towards her with a determined gaze.

"Ali, I'm here."

In fact, Wan Yue has always been optimistic about Su Minsheng in her heart, and hopes that Mu Qingli can know his feelings, so even though Jiang Ci asked her to keep an eye on Su Minsheng, she still had selfish motives.

So he sent Liuyun and himself away to do other things, giving the two people in the room a chance to be alone together.

After not seeing each other for three years, both of them felt the joy of meeting again after a long separation. Mu Qingli knew that it was Su Minsheng who saved her, and she felt even more grateful to him.

"Brother Su, this time thanks to you. I heard from my younger brother that you are now the Imperial Physician. That's great. I was worried when you left three years ago, but now that I know you are in the Imperial Hospital, I am relieved. By the way, Brother Su, how have you been these past three years? When you left, you only left a letter and didn't even bother to say goodbye to me. I was worried. As a friend, isn't that a bit unkind of you?"

Hearing her reproachful tone, Su Minsheng stared into her eyes with a smile and kept apologizing.

"It's my fault. I left in a hurry and didn't have time to apologize to you. But now I saved your life, so it should be offset. So, Ali, don't be angry with me, okay?"

"How dare I be angry with Doctor Su? Now you are my savior. I can't express my gratitude enough. How dare I be angry with you? Not only are you my savior, but you are also a famous and miraculous doctor in the capital. I can't even wait to curry favor with you. How dare I be angry? Don't you think so, Doctor Su?"

Listening to her slightly teasing words, Su Minsheng couldn't help but have his ears red. The name "Doctor Su" just like when she called him "Little Doctor Su" back then, hit him unexpectedly.

Seeing that Su Min was as shy as before when giving birth, Mu Qingli couldn't help but sigh, "Brother Su, why are you still so shy like before? You are the imperial physician now, and you must have seen many noble ladies in the capital. It's not good to be like this every time you see a girl. It won't help you to find a wife in the future. You have to learn from me, be thick-skinned and sweet-mouthed, so that you can please women."

After hearing what Mu Qingli said, Su Minsheng's ears became even redder, but his eyes seemed to contain a thousand words.

He really wanted to tell her how much he had missed her in the past three years, and he also wanted to tell her that he would never blush or have his heart beat fast for other women. She was the only one in the world who could make his heart tremble and his ears turn red, and she was the only one who had entered his heart.

In the three years since they last met, he missed her all the time. The longing in his heart was like a wildly growing vine, tightly wrapped around his heart.

Before coming, he had so many things in his heart that he wanted to tell her, but when he actually saw her, he found that he could not say anything and could only look at her stupidly.

Seeing that she still had the same smile as before, Su Minsheng felt that the vines of longing tightly wrapped around his heart had finally turned into intense sweetness. He felt happy just by seeing her.

Seeing him smiling a little silly, Mu Qingli chuckled, "Brother Su, what's wrong? Why do you keep looking at me with a silly smile?"

"Because you're okay, I'm happy. Does the wound still hurt?"

"It's okay. Today is much better than yesterday. Look at my current condition. It's pretty good, isn't it? I'm strong and not that fragile. I think I should be able to get out of bed within ten days or half a month."

"Don't be so stubborn. I know how badly you're injured. Lie down first and I'll take your pulse again."

"Well, I'll trouble you, Brother Su."

"Still being polite to me."

Just as Mu Qingli was about to lie down, Su Minsheng stopped her.

"Let me help you. Your wound is very deep. Even though you don't feel much pain now, it still hasn't healed. It will be troublesome if it gets pulled. So be careful."

It has to be said that the doctor's words are effective. Mu Qingli nodded obediently and let Su Minsheng support her shoulders.

Just as Su Minsheng was helping her lie down, the door was pushed open from the outside. The two of them heard the noise and turned around at the same time.
