The Rise of a General's Daughter-in-Law Doctor
Chapter 41 Someone fell into the water
Upon hearing this, Dongfang Jincheng's face flushed red. Recalling Li Muxia's embarrassed appearance earlier and his own worried expression when he told her she was injured, he wished he could disappear into the ground. He glared at Zhu Feng and fled back to his room as if his life depended on it.
Zhu Feng was a little confused by his master's glare, but he still obediently accepted it.
The next morning, Li Muxia got up early and checked the bed. Finding that it wasn't soiled, she quickly went to the outhouse to change into a clean menstrual pad. When she returned, she saw that her master and senior brother were already waiting for her in the main hall.
Hurry up and sit down to eat with your master and fellow disciples.
Bai Qingshi and Shangguan Jingye were both doctors, and their training in smelling medicine during their medical studies had given them an incredibly keen sense of smell. So when Li Muxia arrived, they could smell a faint scent of blood on her.
The two exchanged a glance. Just as Shangguan Jingye was about to ask Li Muxia if she was injured, he heard his master cough awkwardly and keep giving him meaningful glances.
He immediately understood what his master meant, and his face showed some embarrassment.
Li Muxia, on the other hand, looked at the interaction between the two and asked in confusion, "Master, Senior Brother, are you alright?"
Bai Qingshi coughed lightly and said, "It's nothing, I'm just a little thirsty."
Li Muxia didn't take it seriously and started eating by herself.
Halfway through the meal, Dongfang Jincheng and Dongfang Jinxuan went downstairs to the lobby.
Upon seeing the two, Li Muxia quickly waved and greeted them.
Dongfang Jinxuan waved in response.
When Dongfang Jincheng saw Li Muxia, he thought of what happened last night, and his face immediately turned red.
Bai Qingshi invited the two to have breakfast together, and Dongfang Jinxuan was about to agree when Dongfang Jincheng grabbed him.
"Senior Shi, we have already eaten. We have important business to attend to today, so we will take our leave first."
After saying that, he pulled Dongfang Jinxuan out the door.
Once outside, Dongfang Jinxuan asked in confusion, "Third Brother, when did we eat?"
Dongfang Jincheng kept walking and said, "The breakfast at the inn is not good. I'll take you to eat something better."
Dongfang Jinxuan scoffed: "Nonsense. Everyone clearly said it was delicious."
But he only dared to think these words; he didn't dare to say them aloud.
After finishing breakfast, Li Muxia and the others went about their own business.
Li Muxia went to the free clinic with her master. To her surprise, her master was especially concerned about her today. Little did she know that, apart from Dongfang Jinxuan, all the other men knew that she was menstruating.
And so, the day passed quickly. Li Muxia returned to the inn, but after finishing her meal and returning to her room, she still hadn't seen the Dongfang Jincheng brothers.
At this moment, Dongfang Jinxuan also realized that his third brother seemed to be deliberately avoiding the Medical Saint and the others.
He asked Dongfang Jincheng, puzzled, "Third Brother, why are you avoiding the Medical Saint and the others?"
Upon hearing his fourth brother's question, Dongfang Jincheng felt a moment of panic, wondering if he had been that obvious. However, he quickly regained his composure and, instead of immediately explaining, took the initiative by asking, "Why do you say that?"
"We were back long ago, but you saw the Medical Saint and the others eating in the lobby, and then you dragged me out. Isn't that hiding from them? Third Brother, did you have some kind of conflict with the Medical Saint and the others?" Dongfang Jinxuan explained his understanding, while thinking to himself: My dear Third Brother, please don't have a conflict with the Medical Saint and the others at this time. I haven't even had my hotpot yet.
Dongfang Jincheng looked at his fourth brother and said, "I just suddenly remembered that I still had something to do."
Looking at his third brother, who was lying without batting an eye, Dongfang Jinxuan thought to himself: "Keep making this up. If there's really something going on, why aren't you doing your job? You're just dragging me around aimlessly in the streets. Sigh, I wonder if I'll ever get to eat hot pot."
Another day passed, and Li Muxia and his apprentice got up early for breakfast as usual. Today they planned to pack their things, organize their luggage, and go for a stroll in the streets before leaving early the next morning.
At this moment, Dongfang Jincheng and the other person also came down. Although they were still a little embarrassed to see Li Muxia, they stopped hiding. He had thought it through last night. Only he cared about this matter. Li Muxia had no idea that he knew she was a woman. If he acted too strangely, it would only arouse suspicion.
He approached Li Muxia and the others' table, and was just about to bow when he heard someone outside shout, "Someone has fallen into the water!"
The group exchanged glances and rushed out. It was still early, and there were few people on the street. Several men had already jumped into the water to rescue people.
The boy who fell into the water was a five or six-year-old boy. Due to the current, he had been swept quite a distance and was almost stopped struggling.
Seeing this, Li Muxia became very anxious. Just then, Dongfang Jincheng, who was standing nearby, flashed to the little boy's side using his lightness skill. He scooped up the little boy who was about to sink, lightly touched the water with his toes, and flew ashore.
After getting up, he put the little boy on the ground, checked his breathing, and shook his head at the crowd that had rushed over.
Seeing this, Li Muxia pushed through the crowd, went to the little boy's side, knelt down, and began to provide first aid.
Just as Dongfang Jincheng was about to dissuade him, Bai Qingshi said, "Leave it to her."
Li Muxia didn't dare to delay. He checked the little boy's pulse and breathing and found that he had stopped breathing. He had to start first aid immediately. Li Muxia opened the little boy's mouth, checked that there were no foreign objects, and began to perform artificial respiration.
Everyone present was shocked to see Li Muxia kissing the little boy. At that moment, the little boy's mother arrived and saw Li Muxia kissing her son on the lips. She cried and tried to pull Li Muxia away.
Seeing this, Shangguan Jingye quickly stopped him. He had heard Li Muxia say that if a person had stopped breathing while drowning, emergency rescue should be carried out.
When the little boy's mother saw that she was being stopped, she cried out, "Are you all in cahoots? My son fell into the water, and you're stopping me from taking him to the hospital. You're doing this to him! You heartless bastards!"
He then looked at the onlookers and said, "Help! This group of people is disregarding human life. Is there no law left?"
The people around were also swayed. Although they knew the little boy was dead, they still felt that Li Muxia was molesting the little boy and was a pervert.
People began to criticize Li Muxia, and some even tried to pull her away.
Seeing this, Dongfang Jincheng looked at everyone with a sharp gaze and said in a cold tone, "Let's see who dares to make a move."
Everyone was intimidated by Dongfang Jincheng's imposing presence. A hush fell over the room; even the little boy's mother was too frightened to utter a sound.
Li Muxia could sense all of this, but she was focused on saving people and didn't have time to look up.
Actually, she didn't know that Dongfang Jincheng was also stunned when he saw Li Muxia bend down and kiss the little boy mouth to mouth. But he was close by, and when he saw Li Muxia breathing into the little boy's mouth, he understood that Li Muxia was saving someone, so he supported Li Muxia.
Seeing Li Muxia kneeling on the ground, earnestly performing first aid, he felt as if a string in his heart had snapped. His heart was beating a little fast, and seeing the thin layer of sweat on the tip of Li Muxia's nose, he suddenly wanted to wipe it away for her.
His gaze remained fixed on Li Muxia. Looking at her serious expression, he found her quite beautiful, even to the point of being mesmerized.
