Divorcing your wife might feel good for a moment, but seeing me make money will make you regret it f

"Take me there! I want to see who this person is who doesn't care about the lives of ordinary people!"

Wang Da Ba's face was filled with anger.

The old doctor was secretly delighted: "Young master, you truly care about the people. On behalf of all the poor people, I thank you, young master."

"I've already found out that the person with the prescription is staying at the Laifu Inn. Let's go there now!"

Led by the old doctor, Wang Daba stormed into Laifu Inn.

Wang Daba was well-known in Haiqu City because he often provided free medical treatment and porridge to poor people.

Everyone recognized him. As soon as Wang Da Ba showed up, the waiter greeted him warmly: "Young Master Wang, what brings you here?"

Wang Da Ba raised his arrogant head: "Weren't there some women doing business here a couple of days ago? They even knew a little about medicine?"

The old doctor's apprentice followed Wu Yu from a distance.

Seeing that he had taken Xu Qing to the British market, he concluded that the woman must have come to do business.

I don't know exactly what they do, or what their name is.

Wu Tie immediately became alert, and he looked at the old doctor and the apprentice behind Wang Daba.

He instinctively denied it, saying, "Young Master Wang, I don't have that woman here."

The young apprentice stepped forward and shouted, "How dare you! I saw her come in with my own eyes! How dare you deceive Young Master Wang!"

Wang Da Ba stared sharply at Wu Tie: "Hmm? Do you have it or not? If I find out you're lying to me, I won't let you off the hook."

Wu Tie was just an ordinary waiter; how could he dare to offend a big shot like Wang Da Ba?

But when he thought about how that lady had saved Wu Yu's brother, he couldn't bring himself to betray his friend.

Wu Tie broke out in a cold sweat, but still forced himself to speak:

"With so many customers coming and going in the shop every day, I really don't know which one Young Master Wang is referring to..."

The young apprentice seemed to have anticipated Wu Tie's response, and he put his hands on his hips and said:

"It's the lady Wu Yu brought. They went to the British Trade Market today, and she's in the inn right now."

"If you know what's good for you, you'd better take us there quickly, otherwise you'll delay the young master's important business, and you'll be in big trouble!"

The young apprentice named him directly, and Wu Tie dared not hide it any longer.

He didn't know why the prefect's son was looking for that lady, but it didn't seem like a good thing.

He subtly winked at the servant cleaning in the corner.

Then, as if suddenly realizing something, he apologized to Wang Da Ba:

"So it's her. I'll take you up to see her right away. I just don't know if that lady is still in her room. She might have gone to the market again."

Wang Da Ba nodded slightly with a reserved air, signaling Wu Tie to lead the way.

Wu Yu deliberately dawdled and walked very slowly, and pretended to have remembered the wrong room, giving the servant time to take Xu Qing away.

"Dong dong dong."

"Dong dong dong."

"Madam, are you inside?"

The urgent knocking and anxious voice woke Xu Qing up.

She got out of bed, got dressed, and opened the door.

The servant kept glancing towards the stairwell, and when he saw Xu Qing come out, he quickly said:

"I don't know why the prefect's son came to see you. He seems to have ill intentions. Brother Wu asked me to inform you so that you can come with me and hide for a while."

Xu Qing looked puzzled. When did she offend the prefect's son?

Xu Qing thought back carefully and confirmed that he had never even met this so-called son of the prefect.

I felt even more confused.

"I haven't broken any laws or committed any crimes, nor have I offended him, so why should I hide?"

The servant was also taken aback, not knowing how to answer, and simply said blankly:

"Brother Wu sent me. Since he said that, he must have his reasons... Why don't you come with me to hide for a while, Madam?"

After considering it for a while, Xu Qing decided not to leave.

It's a blessing, not a curse, but it's a curse that cannot be avoided.

She was in Haiqu; if this prefect's son really intended to harm her...

Hiding won't help.

"Thank you for your kindness. I'll go see them and find out what's going on."

Even if he's the son of the prefect, he can't bully people without reason, especially since he might not even be looking for trouble with me.

The servant stamped his foot, about to persuade him again, but Wu Tie had already appeared at the stairwell with Wang Da Ba.

Seeing that Xu Qing hadn't left yet, Wu Tie became anxious and hurriedly turned around to block Wang Da Ba's view:

"Young master, I remember now, that lady doesn't seem to live on this floor either. She's on the floor upstairs. Please come with me!"

Wang Daba had been following Wu Tie around several times, and Wu Tie used the same rhetoric on every floor.

He usually travels by horse-drawn carriage or sedan chair. When did he travel so far?

Wang Da Ba rubbed his aching ankle and said in an unfriendly tone:

"Where exactly is it? Think it through before you tell me! You're not just stalling for time because you don't want to take me there, are you?!"

Wu Tie's heart skipped a beat, and he gave an awkward laugh: "How, how could that be? This time it's for real. Young master, please come with me, hehehehe..."

The young apprentice behind Wang Da Ba, however, had already spotted Xu Qing in the stairwell. He exclaimed in a shrill voice, "Young Master, it's that person!"

Xu Qing looked in the direction of the sound and saw a man with a single eyebrow, glaring at Wu Tie with gritted teeth.

I could faintly hear them cursing Wu Tie.

Recalling what the servant had just said, Xu Qing was almost instantly certain that this was the prefect's son who was going to cause her trouble.

Xu Qing was not someone who was afraid of trouble, especially since she hadn't done anything wrong and had Cui Han, the Minister of Justice, backing her.

Xu Qing bypassed the servant who was blocking her way and walked towards Wu Tie.

"Young master, you were looking for me?"

Xu Qing asked in a natural and generous manner.

Wang Da Ba looked up and saw a woman walking towards him against the light. She had her hair styled in a traditional Chinese updo, dressed simply, and wore only a jade hairpin in her hair.

But even with such an ordinary outfit, paired with that calm and composed demeanor, it has a unique charm.

When others see him, they mostly fawn over him, their desire to please him is so obvious, yet he thinks he's hiding it very well.

This woman actually asked him quite frankly if he was looking for her.

And she also shares his love for medicine.

It's just to his liking!

"My lady, are you married?"

"Wait, where's your husband? Why would he let a woman like you travel alone out there? Doesn't he know there are many bad people in the outside world?"

"My name is Wang Daba. The prefect is my father. I am the eighth child in my family. May I ask how you should address me, madam?"

"If it's inconvenient for me to tell you, that's fine. It was my oversight and presumption. How can a young lady's given name be told to others so casually?"

"Where are you from, madam? Who else is in your family?"

Wang Da Ba's series of questions, which sounded like he was checking household registration, left everyone speechless.

The old doctor and the apprentice following behind him both stumbled and almost tumbled down the stairs.

Wu Tie looked at the young master, who had just been arrogant and haughty, as if he were a monster, but now he was asking Xu Qing questions in a fawning manner.

Xu Qing was even more confused. Didn't that servant just say that the prefect's son was going to cause him trouble?

This doesn't look like it either.

It almost looks like I'm harassing her...
