Reborn as a doctor, he takes revenge and ruthlessly punishes the scum.

Yongning Prince's Mansion

In the garden, under a large tree with lush branches and clusters of flowers.

Gong Mojue wore a long, dark robe, his long hair casually tied back, which made his already cold face appear even more indifferent and aloof.

"So, everything is arranged?"

Mo Ran stood respectfully behind him and nodded emphatically:

"Yes, everything at the banquet has been arranged. However, there is one thing that worries me. Although Situ Yue will definitely invite Bai Ziyu, whether Bai Ziyu will attend is uncertain. After all, we all know that Bai Ziyu has always kept his distance from Situ Yue."

Gong Mojue's eyes were deep:

"Don't worry, he'll go."

Mo Ran was not surprised, after all, Gong Mojue had never made a mistake in his words over the years.

However, he said with a hint of regret:

"It's just a pity about Bai Ziyu."

Gong Mojue frowned, his eyes sweeping indifferently over Mo Ran.

Mo Ran was taken aback, realizing he had misspoke, and quickly said:

"Master, that's not what I meant. What I meant was, it benefited that traitor Situ Xiong!"

Gong Mojue slowly withdrew his gaze:

"Any thing else?"

Mo Ran shook his head directly:

"fine!"

After speaking, he remained respectfully bowing his head and standing behind him.

Unconsciously, Gong Mojue closed his eyes, slowly turned his head, and looked straight at him.

Mo Ran saw him, stared at him, and widened her eyes in confusion.

It seemed to be asking, "Master, is there something you need, looking at me like that?"

When he saw that Gong Mojue's eyes were growing increasingly dark.

His eyes first showed confusion, then suddenly he realized:

"Oh, I understand, I understand. Master, I'll take my leave now!"

After saying that, without waiting for Gong Mojue to speak, she turned around and ran away as fast as she could, disappearing in a flash.

Gong Mojue watched his figure disappear rapidly around the corner, shook his head almost imperceptibly, withdrew his gaze, and slowly looked up at the cluster of flowers above his head.

A gentle breeze swept by, and petals drifted down in a flurry.

This made Gong Mojue's figure under the tree appear even more lonely and cold.

Bai Mansion Study

Bai Ziyu, dressed in white, sat on the ground, holding a black piece in his left hand and a white piece in his right, placing them in an orderly fashion on the chessboard in front of him.

Opposite him stood a man in magnificent purple robes, with a nonchalant smile, slightly effeminate features, and strikingly beautiful, who was casually waving a folding fan and staring at him speechlessly.

"Tsk tsk tsk, you don't like luxury cars, beautiful women, fine wine and delicacies, but you like this, the most brain-draining and boring game of chess, and even more so, playing chess with yourself, a doubly boring game. Your life is really terribly boring!"

Bai Ziyu paid no attention and placed a piece:

"If you're bored, go find your own fun. Why are you here?"

The man narrowed his phoenix eyes slightly, then swiftly closed his folding fan, tapping it rhythmically in his palm.

"I say, I am the richest man in Dayong, with tens of thousands of taels of gold that many people can't even dream of, so why do you always look down on me?"

Bai Ziyu paused slightly in his hand movements.

Jin Wanliang was satisfied:

"What, you're only realizing now that you've neglected me all these years! But don't worry, I'll give you a chance to make it up to me. What do you want to say? Hurry up and say it!"

After speaking, he opened his folding fan with a "whoosh," a move that was incredibly elegant. His eyes, brimming with laughter, were fixed on Bai Ziyu, clearly waiting for him to make amends.

Bai Ziyu nodded slightly:

"Every time I hear the name Jin Wanliang, I feel it suits you perfectly!"

Jin Wanliang raised an eyebrow:

"Are you trying to please me?"

Bai Ziyu lost a piece:

"Obviously, I'm being sarcastic!"

Jin Wanliang rolled his eyes.

"Could you please stop being so boring every time? Otherwise, you might lose me as a friend."

Bai Ziyu slowly raised his head, his eyes full of seriousness:

"So, I can choose to lose you as a friend!"

Jin Wanliang was taken aback, and then rolled his eyes again.

"Sigh, I'm telling you, you're so sharp-tongued and boring. Don't all your admirers and followers know that? Aren't you afraid I'll spread this side of you around and shatter your image as the dream lover of countless girls and the role model for countless students?!"

Bai Ziyu glanced at him indifferently, then looked down at the chessboard again.

"If you can do that, I would be more than happy to do so!"

Jin Wanliang rolled his eyes so hard they almost reached the sky:

"I admit, I was wrong just now. You're not only sarcastic and boring, you're also narcissistic!"

Bai Ziyu once again gracefully placed a piece:

"Thank you for the compliment."

Jin Wanliang was speechless, losing interest in teasing him. He pulled a note from his pocket and tossed it onto his desk.

On the chessboard:

"Situ Yue has sent you an invitation to a banquet tomorrow."

Bai Ziyu's eyes were indifferent. He reached out and picked up the invitation, then gently tossed it aside and continued studying the chess game in front of him.

Jin Wanliang rolled his eyes again:

"I'm telling you, that's Situ Yue, the Prime Minister, second only to the Emperor, and his only beloved daughter. Not to mention, she's incredibly beautiful, gentle, and elegant. Such a woman, pursued by countless noblemen in Lingjin City, has been devoted to you all these years."

"That's not the most infuriating thing. The most infuriating thing is that you've remained completely unmoved. I'd like to know what kind of woman could possibly win you over!"

He just finished speaking.

Bai Ziyu's eyes flickered, and the chess piece he was about to place slipped from his hand, making a crisp sound on the chessboard.

Jin Wanliang keenly noticed his unusual behavior.

His eyes lit up, his face beaming with gossipy excitement:

"You're lost in thought? Bai Ziyu, you're actually lost in thought? Wait, let me think... You lost in thought when I was talking about what kind of woman could move you."

His eyes brightened again, and he slammed the folded fan he had just closed onto his left palm, his voice rising several decibels involuntarily.

"So, you do have a woman you like!"

Bai Ziyu's eyes, which had trembled slightly, calmed down once more. He picked up the fallen chess piece and said calmly:

"Do I...?"

Jin Wanliang was anxious:

"You have one, of course you do. I'm your best friend, and I have to be the first person to know you have a girl you like! Tell me, who is it!"

Bai Ziyu clenched the chess piece he had been holding between two fingers into his palm, and looked at Jin Wanliang with a serious, puzzled expression:

"What did you say?"
