After giving birth to twins, the princess became pregnant again, and the royal uncle took care of he

Yun Jin originally came with a "let's see what happens" attitude, thinking that Chu Xingyao, this "good-for-nothing," would definitely mess things up, and might even cause someone's death.

When she secretly followed the elderly couple, eager to witness Chu Xingyao's "masterpiece," she discovered that Banxia was not only alive, but also lying in bed with a rosy complexion, chatting affectionately with her parents.

Yun Jin's face instantly turned ashen, realizing that she had not only lost the bet but might also have to face Chu Xingyao's ridicule.

Taking advantage of a moment when no one was looking, she quickly slipped away like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.

Just as Da Bai was about to chase after her, Chu Xingyao stopped him: "No need, she will come to beg me in a few days."

Big White nodded and withdrew like a loyal soldier.

Chu Xingyao later learned that the reason Doctor Mo was registered at Renxintang was because he had once received a favor from Consort Su and had promised to help her for half a year.

Now, he's sticking to Chu Xingyao like a leech, constantly asking questions, wanting to learn Chu Xingyao's medical skills.

Unable to resist his persistent advances, Chu Xingyao had no choice but to repeatedly assure him that she would teach him some basic suturing techniques before Dr. Mo finally left, satisfied.

Chu Xingyao breathed a sigh of relief and turned to chat with Doctor Li and his family.

Dr. Li, an honest and kind-hearted man, and his wife have been running Baohetang for thirty-five years.

Dr. Li said somewhat embarrassedly:

“Miss Chu, the pharmacy has been transferred to the Princess of Dingyuan County. We plan to let Banxia rest for three days before leaving.”

Chu Xingyao waved her hand and said with a smile:

“You don’t need to leave. This 60,000 taels is for you. The pharmacy will be registered under my name. You can continue working in the shop, and we’ll split the profits 50/50.”

As she spoke, Chu Xingyao took out another 50,000 taels of silver:

"Use this money to buy medicinal herbs. Close the shop for now; I need to renovate it. From now on, the rich will pay for the medical treatment of the poor."

The Li family was stunned. Chu Xingyao continued:

"From now on, customers who need to buy on credit must be limited based on their creditworthiness. Otherwise, pharmacies will have a hard time surviving."

Although Dr. Li and his family were still confused, they obediently nodded in agreement.

Chu Xingyao took out some anti-inflammatory medicine from her spatial storage:

"Take this to prevent fever, two pills after each meal." "If you have a fever, take this fever reducer."

Chu Xingyao then took out a box of white pills.

Dr. Li stared wide-eyed at the unfamiliar pills. Though he dared not ask, he was thinking...

"Is this Miss Chu some kind of celestial being descended to earth? These pills look just like magic pills."

Chu Xingyao couldn't help but laugh out loud at Doctor Li's expression.

"Dr. Li, these medicines are all made using a secret recipe from my clan, so you can use them with confidence. Please rest for the next few days; I'll have someone renovate the pharmacy."

Although Dr. Li and his family were still completely confused, seeing Chu Xingyao's confident smile, they decided to believe her.

After all, Chu Xingyao had already proven her abilities with her medical skills.

Chu Xingyao stood at the entrance of Baohe Hall, the sunlight shining on her, giving her a golden halo.

She turned to Big White and smiled slightly, her tone carrying an undeniable decisiveness:

"Da Bai, go with Doctor Li to transfer the land and house deeds. After that, we'll wait for you at Zui Xian Lou."

Da Bai immediately clasped his hands in a proper salute and replied, "As you command."

They quickly followed Dr. Li's footsteps, and the two figures soon disappeared around the street corner.

Chu Xingyao and Pearl walked slowly toward Zuixianlou, their figures standing out in the bustling crowd.

As soon as Chu Xingyao arrived at Zuixianlou, she felt a sharp gaze. She looked up and saw it was Jun Xuanche, that scumbag.

He stood at the entrance of Zuixianlou, dressed in a moon-white robe, exuding an extraordinary aura, and was scrutinizing her with his deep eyes.

Jun Xuanche smiled faintly and said, "Sister Yao'er, it's been a long time."

His voice was cheerful, and he put on an act as if he was very happy to see Chu Xingyao. If she hadn't witnessed his ruthlessness in her previous life, she would have almost believed him.

Chu Xingyao bowed slightly, performing a standard greeting, and replied, "Greetings, Prince Yan. I have come of age, so please do not call me by my maiden name."

Her tone carried an unyielding firmness, indicating that she was no longer the little girl who could be addressed as she pleased.

A hint of surprise flashed in Jun Xuanche's eyes; he clearly hadn't expected Chu Xingyao to react this way.

He nodded slightly, indicating his understanding: "Miss Chu, it was my rudeness. May I ask what brings you to Zuixianlou today?"

Chu Xingyao smiled slightly and replied:

"Your Highness, this is a private matter and I cannot disclose it here. Farewell."

Her answer was both polite and distant, preventing Jun Xuanche from probing further.

Chu Xingyao sat by the window in the restaurant, where the view outside contrasted sharply with the antique charm of the interior.

Her gaze passed through the bustling crowd and landed on the street outside the window, but she was waiting for the arrival of her bodyguard, Da Bai.

The restaurant's signature dishes had already been ordered, and their aroma filled the air, but her mind wasn't on the food.

Just then, Jun Xuanche unexpectedly appeared at the entrance of the restaurant, breaking Chu Xingyao's tranquility.

His steps were unhurried, and his eyes held a hint of amusement, as if he had expected this chance encounter.

Chu Xingyao frowned slightly. She didn't want to run into him here, especially while she was waiting for Da Bai.

"Sister Yao'er, what a coincidence, I've entered the wrong private room."

Jun Xuanche's voice carried a hint of teasing as his gaze swept across Chu Xingyao's face, seemingly searching for something.

Chu Xingyao coldly replied, "Then Your Highness, Prince Yan, please take your leave."

Jun Xuanche seemed unconcerned by her coldness; his smile remained captivating, only his eyes held a deeper meaning.

"Sister Yao'er, are you really so heartless as to send me away?"

He took out an exquisite hairpin from his sleeve, which was inlaid with several dazzling gemstones and was obviously very valuable.

"Sister Yao'er, this hairpin was made by my own hand, intending to be given to you personally, but unexpectedly..."

He paused deliberately, gazing intently at Chu Xingyao with deep affection, as if waiting for her reaction.

Chu Xingyao felt nauseous. She forced herself to turn her head away, afraid that if she looked for too long, she would really vomit.

She knew in her heart that although Jun Xuanche's appearance and identity were attractive, her past life experiences made her feel only deep disgust for him.

“Lord Yan, are you hard of hearing? I told you, please don’t call me by my maiden name, I’m afraid my cousin will misunderstand.”

Chu Xingyao's voice carried a hint of warning.

Jun Xuanche seemed unaffected by her warning, and continued:

"You ate the wrong thing because Chu Xinglan is pregnant, right?"

"You still have me in your heart, don't you? You still love me, don't you?"

His voice carried a hint of expectation, as if he genuinely wanted an answer.
