Quick Transmigration: The Charming Beauty Who Was Short-Lived and Alluring

Qingying brought the medicine and the book to Song Zhaoming's room.

"This is the medicine that Miss instructed me to prepare for you. As soon as you left, she softened and even told the kitchen to prepare medicinal meals for you to nourish your body." Qingying placed the medicine and book on the table.

"She's not angry anymore," Song Zhaoming asked, his leg was in so much pain that he was lying in bed.

Qingying sighed, "I don't think Miss is really angry with you. She's just worried that what you're doing will offend people."

"Really?" Song Zhaoming's eyes lit up.

"Of course it's true. You're really lucky. Miss treats you like her own brother, considering everything for you. She treats you even better than she treats me and Qingyuan." Since Chu Yun cares about Song Zhaoming, Qingying naturally had to speak well of Chu Yun in front of Song Zhaoming, lest Song Zhaoming develop a grudge against Chu Yun because of what just happened.

Unfortunately, of all that Qingying said, Song Zhaoming only caught two words.

"Brother?" he murmured.

“Yes, Miss said it herself, she treats you like a younger brother.” Qingying took out a spoon and stirred it repeatedly in the medicine bowl.

"You must not let Miss down. Take good care of your injuries and once you're healed, go and apologize to Miss. Then this matter will be over."

Qingying lowered her eyes, carefully examining the medicine bowl. Naturally, she didn't notice Song Zhaoming's face darken instantly, nor did she know that her words, "brother," had truly pierced Song Zhaoming's heart.

Although Song Zhaoming couldn't figure out what his feelings for Chu Yun really meant, he didn't want to become Chu Yun's younger brother from the bottom of his heart.

After all that fuss, it turns out Chu Yun only saw him as a younger brother. Who would want to be her damn younger brother?

Song Zhaoming kept his head down, a terrifying storm raging in his eyes, ignoring Ren Qingying's passionate words.

In the end, Qingying had no more temper.

"Fine, if you don't want to hear it, I won't say anything more. But make sure you copy down the two books on the table carefully; Miss wants to see them." Qingying shook her head and turned to leave.

After Qingying walked away, Song Zhaoming clenched his fist and slammed it hard against the bed, making it creak.

On the other side, Yan Jinyu walked extremely fast, and Master Jinghai struggled to keep up.

"Young friend, slow down, wait for this old monk," Jinghai called out.

Yan Jinyu ignored her and continued walking quickly as usual.

Master Jinghai breathed a sigh of relief and decided to slow down and stop chasing.

As Yan Jinyu walked, he sensed something was wrong and suddenly turned around. He saw Master Jinghai walking leisurely dozens of meters behind him, and he couldn't help but feel a sudden pain in his forehead.

"Hurry up!" Yan Jinyu raised her voice, making sure Master Jinghai could hear her.

Now it was Master Jinghai's turn to pretend to be deaf and dumb. He acted as if he hadn't heard anything, put his hands together, and walked even slower than before.

Yan Jinyu was so angry that her head ached.

This Master Jinghai is still so petty and narrow-minded.

He crossed his arms over his chest, stood still, and waited for Master Jinghai to walk forward.

Master Jinghai remained unmoved under his deathly gaze, walking steadily towards Yan Jinyu step by step.

"Amitabha, young friend, now you can speak properly with this old monk, right?"

Yan Jinyu frowned. "What do I have to say to you?"

“You are mistaken. I have known you for many years and we are friends despite our age difference. It is only right that I inquire about your marriage prospects,” said Master Jinghai.

Yan Jinyu was speechless. "What nonsense are you talking about?"

"Am I talking nonsense? Young friend, you rushed me to treat that young lady. Don't you have any other thoughts about her?" Master Jinghai said with a knowing look.

Yan Jinyu wanted to hit him. "You're overthinking it. You care so much about other people's love lives. You shouldn't be a monk. You should be a matchmaker. This White Horse Temple can be turned into a temple for the God of Love."

Master Jinghai: "Alright, since you don't want to hear it, I won't say it."

Listening to his strange accent made me quite uncomfortable. Yan Jinyu said, "When you're out in the world, make sure you wear the mask of a virtuous monk so that people don't notice anything amiss."

Master Jinghai clasped his hands together and said, "Young friend, you are right."

The two returned to the meditation room and closed the doors and windows.

Master Jinghai then tore off the human skin mask from his face, revealing the face of a middle-aged man underneath.

His face was weathered and worn, the result of years of wearing a human skin mask and applying medicinal liquids, leaving it pockmarked and looking quite terrifying.

This person is not Master Jinghai!

Instead, it was Yan Jinyu's uncle-in-law and Pei Jianzhi's uncle-in-law—Yun Rong.

The Wang family once had two beautiful daughters who were famous throughout the capital, attracting countless princes and noblemen to their adoration.

The young lady ascends to the throne, ruling the world with her imperial grace.

The second young lady, however, chose a completely different path from her sister.

She fell in love with a young doctor.

The young man had a heart for healing the sick and always treated people for free. He was also very handsome, like a celestial being descended from heaven.

Miss Wang fell in love with him at first sight and vowed to marry no one else.

Unfortunately, youthful affection could not overcome the gap in social status.

The Wang family refused to let their precious gem go to waste and abhorred the marriage.

At that time, the young man was proud and arrogant, and could not bear the humiliation inflicted by the Wang family, so he left in a huff.

This parting turned out to be a final farewell.

When the young man finally realized how important Miss Wang was to him, and returned to the capital to propose marriage to the Wang family, he was met with the tragic sight of the entire Wang family imprisoned.

Miss Wang was sent to the brothel and could not be redeemed.

The young man searched everywhere and asked someone to send a message to Miss Wang Er, promising that he would definitely rescue her.

When Miss Wang received the letter, she realized that the young man had not forgotten her.

But as those around her died one by one, even the warmest heart of Miss Wang grew cold.

She was strong-willed, and upon hearing the news of her sister's death, knowing that the Wang family was beyond saving, she committed suicide in despair.

Before she died, she wrote a marriage certificate in her own hand, expressing her willingness to marry the young man.

The poor young man had just realized his feelings when his beloved died.

Miss Wang lived a life of wealth and honor, but after her death, she was wrapped in a straw mat and left in a chaotic burial mound.

The young man found Miss Wang Er among thousands of corpses, buried his beloved with his own hands, and became somewhat delirious.

He was heartbroken and utterly dejected, his former glory gone, and he wandered around the vicinity of Miss Wang Er's tombstone.

If it weren't for the fact that a seriously ill servant of the Wang family later found him and entrusted Pei Jianzhi to him, he might never have woken up.

To take care of Pei Jianzhi, Yun Rong had no choice but to pull herself together and take him into hiding, living in anonymity and constantly on the run.

The Wang family's treason case was decided too quickly, leaving many doubts. In order to find out the truth, Yun Rong devised a plan to make Pei Jianzhi the illegitimate son of the Marquis's family, and she herself impersonated Master Jinghai after his death.

Even more so, it was he who took Yan Jinyu away from the deposed crown prince's residence.

Otherwise, how could two mere children possess such extraordinary abilities to orchestrate such a grand scheme?

Yun Rong is not only a skilled physician but also a formidable martial artist, which is why he was able to gather a group of people willing to risk their lives for him.

Over the years, he taught Yan Jinyu martial arts and Pei Jianzhi medical skills, all in the hope that one day he could overturn the Wang family's case and avenge Miss Wang the Second.
