If you walk alone at night too often, you're bound to encounter a ghost.

Previously, Old Man Feng scoffed at these words.

They even deliberately go against the grain and love to go to places like mass graves.

But today he finally understood: we should listen to the words of our ancestors!

Exhausted and trembling, he turned his head in fear and saw a menacing shadow on the ground.

This female ghost is terrifying!

Yu Wan also felt a sudden darkness before her eyes.

She didn't understand. She had clearly said that she wasn't a ghost and told the old man not to run away, so why did he run even faster instead?

The two ran and chased, and in the blink of an eye they were out of the woods.

Yu Wan glanced around and realized that the Yun family's residence was not far ahead.

This place is remote, and only the Yun family has lit candles.

Yu Wan quickened her pace and grabbed the old man: "Old man! Look back, I'm really not a ghost. I have a shadow. Besides, what ghost is as lively as me?"

Old Feng was abruptly pulled to a stop.

shadow?

Yeah! That female ghost... oops, that woman has a shadow!

Having made such a huge blunder, Old Man Feng was both frustrated and furious. He forced back his trembling legs and angrily rebuked, "If you're not a ghost, why are you chasing me?"

Yu Wan grabbed him with one hand and leaned on the shovel with the other, panting and looking pained: "You're a doctor, of course I want to pursue you!"

Old Feng paused, staring at her suspiciously. "How did you know I'm a doctor?"

Yu Wan rolled her eyes inwardly.

Of course I read the original novel.

However, she pointed at the old man's shoulder with a speechless expression and said, "You're carrying such a big medicine box, what else could you be but a doctor?"

Old Feng paused for a moment.

He looked at Yu Wan with a more scrutinizing gaze. "Why are you looking for a doctor?"

Just as Yu Wan was about to explain, she heard a familiar voice.

"Yu Niang".

That person's voice was so distinctive.

"What are you doing?"

Yu Wan subconsciously hid the shovel behind her back and looked at the person who had come.

Perhaps having heard the commotion between her and Old Man Feng, Yun Shang, wearing a gray overcoat, walked towards them.

The overcoat had several patches, but on Yun Shang, this shabby garment seemed more luxurious than silk and satin.

Yun Shang's gaze fell on the two of them, his eyes filled with inquiry.

His gaze swept over Yu Wan's forehead, his voice cool and indifferent: "Are you hot?"

A bead of sweat slid down her forehead, and Yu Wan turned her head to the side with an embarrassed smile, "No, no."

Yun Shang's gaze lingered on her for a moment, then he lowered his eyes to conceal the darkness within them and asked calmly, "Where is Doctor Rong?"

Yu Wan hastily wiped the sweat from her face and pointed at Old Man Feng, saying, "Here!"

Yun Shang slightly raised his dark eyes. "Yu Niang, I'm just sick, not blind."

Yu Wan quickly explained, "Dr. Rong is not home tonight; he's out on a house call. So I found this doctor. Don't worry, this old man... this old gentleman's medical skills are definitely no worse than Dr. Rong's! He will definitely be able to detoxify my mother-in-law and Yunxi!"

Taking the opportunity to curry favor, she blinked her eyes pitifully, "Do you know how much I went to pay to invite this old gentleman?"

Old Man Feng, standing to the side: "..."

I have a different understanding of "please".

The pair of almond-shaped eyes before her were so lively and adorable that Yun Shang felt a faint urge to reach out and touch them.

He raised his hand slightly.

The next moment, however, he let go without leaving a trace.

The darkness concealed all the emotions in his eyes. He glanced sideways, no longer giving Yu Wan any attention, and looked at Old Man Feng with humility and politeness.

"Sir, are you a doctor?"

Old Feng poked the medicine box on his body with his hand and raised his chin arrogantly.

Yun Shang's voice was cold and clear. "My mother and younger sister have accidentally eaten poisonous mushrooms. Please, sir, save their lives."

Upon hearing this, Old Man Feng's expression turned solemn, instantly gaining a touch of authority. "This is a matter of life and death. Take me to see him."

Yun Shang bowed and said, "Thank you, sir."

Old Feng's eyes flickered slightly, and he muttered under his breath, "You young man, you're quite polite."

The group returned to the Yun family together.

Old Feng sat by the bed and took the pulses of the mother and daughter.

Yu Wan put the shovel down before reluctantly entering the house. As soon as she looked up, she met Yun Shang's dark and deep eyes.

She suddenly felt guilty.

The foot that was originally going to walk over silently retracted.

She pressed herself against the door, wishing she could be as far away from Yun Shang as possible.

Unfortunately, the other party did not do as she wished.

Yun Shang strode towards her.

Yu Wan tensed up instantly, looking at him cautiously.

Did Yun Shang see the shovel in her hand? Will he make any connections?!

Yun Shang stopped three steps in front of her, her cool gaze fixed on him, her voice very soft, as if afraid of disturbing Old Man Feng's diagnosis.

"Yu Niang, I forgot to ask earlier, go and fetch a doctor..."

Why did you bring a shovel?
