Beast Taming Mad Concubine: The Useless Young Lady is Back!

Chapter 56 The So-Called Love Grows Over Time

Xu Mo's expression was calm and somewhat nonchalant, but his voice still betrayed a hint of resentment.

Ye Qing'an recognized it, and Ye Qinghao naturally recognized it as well.

Ye Qing'an glanced at Xu Mo and thought to herself, "With this kind of appearance, if he went to a theatrical troupe, he would probably become a star very quickly."

"Is that so?" Ye Qinghao's eyes were full of surprise: "However, although we went through a lot of hardships, the final result still proved the saying that good and evil will eventually be rewarded."

"Yes." Xu Mo nodded: "However, this matter has left an indelible mark on me."

Xu Mo lowered his eyes, concealing the hatred within, and simply smiled nonchalantly: "Alright, enough of this depressing talk. Lord Ye probably didn't come here tonight to hear me say these things..."

Ye Qinghao, however, appeared quite magnanimous: "It's alright. I came today for two reasons. First, to thank Physician Xu for repairing my daughter Qing'an's dantian, allowing her to resume cultivation. Second, I really wanted to see what kind of person this physician with such amazing medical skills was..."

"I never imagined that Doctor Xu would be so young." Ye Qinghao said, glancing at Xu Mo. "Medicine has never been highly valued in the Tianlong Continent. Why did Doctor Xu choose to study medicine instead of Xuanling arts?"

Xu Mo raised his eyes and glanced at Ye Qing'an: "It's probably because everyone has their own ambitions. My family has been practicing medicine for generations, and everything I've been exposed to since I was a child has been medical cultivation techniques. Besides, my natural talent isn't very good, so I wouldn't achieve much by practicing Xuanling techniques. I simply chose the path of medicine."

Ye Qinghao and Xu Mo seemed to be having a pleasant conversation, while Ye Qing'an just sat to the side with a smile, not saying a word, but her gaze would occasionally sweep over Xu Mo's face.

While secretly thinking to herself, Ye Qing'an felt that although Xu Mo regarded the tattoo on his face as a disgrace and would rather wear a mask to cover it up, the tattoo on Xu Mo's face, which was so beautiful that it was almost otherworldly, looked particularly attractive and added a different kind of charm to his already extremely handsome face.

No wonder Consort Lan was willing to bear such a serious crime in order to bring Xu Mo into her possession.

If she had met Xu Mo in her previous life, she probably would have tried every means to possess him.

However, aside from the fact that he had heterochromia, Xu Mo's eyes and brows inexplicably felt somewhat familiar to Ye Qing'an, as if she had seen him somewhere before...

Where exactly did I see it before?

An hour later, Ye Qinghao and Ye Qing'an left Lanting Xiaozhu and returned to the Ye residence. As soon as they entered the gate, Ye Qinghao spoke up: "You saw Doctor Xu today. Did you have any thoughts? I noticed you were looking at him a lot earlier."

Any ideas?

This way of asking the question...

Ye Qing'an quickly understood Ye Qinghao's purpose: he wanted to control her, and he wanted to have more and more of her in his hands or things.

Ye Qing'an smiled, her face slightly flushed: "I think Doctor Xu is really handsome."

It was a fact that everyone could see, yet Ye Qinghao was extremely satisfied: "He is quite handsome. Even in the entire Siyou Kingdom, such looks would probably be outstanding. However, his appearance is a bit too striking, making him unsuitable as a husband."

Ye Qing'an quickly replied, "I didn't have such thoughts. I've said before that I never want to get married again in my life."

“It’s fine if you don’t get married.” Ye Qinghao smiled warmly. “It doesn’t mean you can’t have someone by your side. Xu Yixiu may not be a suitable husband, but he can still be a comforting companion.”

Ye Qing'an looked at Ye Qinghao with some disbelief.

Ye Qinghao seemed unconcerned: "These things are common. You're still young. This is nothing to be ashamed of."

Ye Qinghao curled the corners of his lips: "I want to recruit that Doctor Xu into my household as a retainer."

"Summon him to the manor? As a retainer?" Ye Qing'an had already guessed what Ye Qinghao was planning, but she still pretended to be surprised.

"Yes."

Ye Qinghao smiled and glanced at Ye Qing'an, saying meaningfully, "If he could become a retainer in the manor, you would have more time to spend with him. As the saying goes, familiarity breeds fondness, and there would be more opportunities."

“Father…” Ye Qing’an’s ears turned red, looking shy as if her secret had been exposed, which made Ye Qinghao burst into laughter: “Alright, it’s settled then.”

“But…” Ye Qing’an bit her lip, her voice lowering slightly, “But isn’t Doctor Xu a member of Lanting Pavilion? The Pavilion Master of Lanting Pavilion has done him a favor, so he shouldn’t leave Lanting Pavilion to come to our residence so easily, right?”

Ye Qinghao narrowed his eyes, his face full of smug satisfaction and the ease of having everything under control: "In this world, no one dislikes power, status, money, and fame. I can give him these, but Lanting Pavilion may not be able to. Don't worry, I'll find a way to persuade him. Just wait and see."

After Ye Qinghao finished speaking, he waved to Ye Qing'an and headed straight for the main courtyard.

Ye Qing'an stopped in her tracks, a mocking smile on her face.

This person is probably the first to put someone on his daughter's bed; it's truly quite amusing.

Ye Qing'an sneered and quickly returned to the courtyard.

Eleven waited for Ye Qing'an in the courtyard. When she saw Ye Qing'an return, she quickly said, "Mother..."

"Huh? What's wrong?"

Ye Qing'an led Eleven back into the house and dismissed all the maids and servants before Eleven spoke: "Just now, I was with Ye Feiran and overheard his page urging him to attend some small banquet in seven days. He said that many of his friends would be attending the banquet, and that it was set up by Prince An Ding to let young talents compete. If they win, they will not only receive generous prizes, but also gain face in front of Prince An Ding."

"That page wanted Ye Feiran to participate in the competition as well..."

"Participate in the competition?" Ye Qing'an's lips twitched. "Doesn't Ye Feiran know what he's capable of? With his abilities, what competition could he possibly win?"

"That's what I thought too, but Ye Feiran's pageboy praised him to the skies, making him seem like the best in the world, and Ye Feiran was tempted."

Eleven sighed, "How could I have such a stupid uncle? Without even thinking about it, there's definitely something wrong with that Xiao Yan."

Ye Qing'an frowned, about to speak, when she suddenly heard Wei Mama's voice from outside the door: "What are you doing blocking the door? I am the young lady's personal servant. What kind of personal servant am I if I don't serve the young lady? Let me in."

Ye Qing'an narrowed her eyes and looked towards the door. This Granny Wei, she's only been back in the manor for a day, and she's already starting to act up?
