Chapter 63: Tears Are Her Killer Move
Where on earth did she learn these strange skills?
If she knew medicine, none of the things she brought out were related to medicinal herbs.
If she didn't know medicine, she could still cure illnesses that dozens of physicians present were powerless to treat.
The patients' conditions in the medical competition were already rare and tricky, yet such rare and tricky difficult and complicated diseases became child's play in front of Ji Yuntang.
It was as if there was nothing she couldn't cure.
Thinking this, Luo Sinian couldn't help but fantasize again: if Ji Yuntang could attach someone else's leg and make him stand and walk, then his third brother's leg could surely stand up too, right?
He'd totally forgotten how embarrassed he was earlier, wanting to rush over and catch her in the act.
The praise in his ears made Luo Jingshen's brow furrow deeper and deeper. He had to admit that Ji Yuntang's performance today was truly outstanding, allowing her to make a big splash.
He wondered how the next two rounds would go...
Just then, a guard stepped forward and whispered a few words into Luo Feizhou's ear.
Luo Feizhou's eyes lit up, and he immediately rose to give the order: "It's getting late today. Let's stop the medical competition here and continue tomorrow at noon."
Luo Sinian's eyes flickered. In the two years since the medical competition had been held, it had never been stopped mid-way before.
Today, not only was it suspended, but the match was also postponed.
Seeing Luo Feizhou's expression, Luo Sinian knew that his fifth brother was probably cooking up something again.
He debated whether to send someone to warn Ji Yuntang to be careful, but then he turned and saw Ji Yuntang laughing and chatting with the Man in Black.
The two were deep in conversation, talking about something unknown.
Luo Sinian's face went dark instantly!
Hmph! He must be out of his mind to worry about that ugly woman!
His third brother and his friend were both poisoned by that ugly woman, but he wasn't.
Ji Yuntang, a married woman, was laughing and chatting with another man, totally ignoring his third brother.
Whether she lived or died, what business was it of his?
Luo Sinian snorted and stormed off.
Ji Yuntang was stopped by the Man in Black, who asked about some rehab training steps. After going over the precautions, she left with Tao Zhi.
As the Crown Prince and Prince Qi departed, the crowd in Azure Dragon Square thinned out. Ji Qingfeng watched Ji Yuntang's retreating figure, his look growing more complicated.
For the first time, he wondered if his treatment of Ji Yuntang had been too harsh.
Compared to the favor and resources Ji Qingqing got so easily, Ji Yuntang had to work hard for everything she wanted.
And now, her shining qualities seemed even more brilliant, way beyond Ji Qingqing's.
Ji Qingqing had been casually left by Ji Qingfeng in a sparsely populated area, faking being passed out.
At this moment, after getting stepped on by passersby a few times, Ji Qingqing couldn't take it anymore. She opened her eyes, her face red, tears streaming down.
"Second brother, my leg hurts so much. Did sister accidentally break it just now?"
Ji Qingqing knew full well what had happened in the square and hadn't missed the regret and guilt in his eyes.
That guilt was directed at Ji Yuntang.
Ji Qingqing had never known that someone as stuck-up as Ji Qingfeng could have that look on his face.
This surprised her and made her scared this favor might be taken away by Ji Yuntang.
The sudden sound of a girl crying snapped Ji Qingfeng back to reality. Ji Qingqing's words pulled him back to the present.
Yes, no matter how pitiful Ji Yuntang was, the fact she hit Ji Qingqing was undeniable.
In the end, she was still mean at heart. If only she could be as gentle as Qingqing, the Yongning Marquis's mansion wouldn't refuse to acknowledge her.
Ji Qingfeng stepped forward and picked up Ji Qingqing, a familiar smile on his face, but with a cold, hateful light in his eyes.
"Qingqing, the wrongs you suffered today will be repaid by Ji Yuntang one day, I swear."
Ji Qingqing said nothing.
But she knew she had won again.
Tears were always her killer move. As long as she cried delicately, all three of her brothers would go soft for her.
Without exception!
Ji Yuntang knew nothing of this. At that moment, she was sitting in the carriage heading back to Prince Ye's mansion, pretending to sleep with her eyes closed.
Suddenly, halfway there, the carriage stopped.
Tao Zhi pulled back the curtain and asked the driver, "What's wrong?"
The driver's voice trembled: "R-returning to miss, someone's asking for Princess Ye by name."
Hearing this, Ji Yuntang opened her eyes. Through the gap in the carriage window, she spotted a dozen or so black-clad guards blocking the way, each with a long sword at his waist.
She knew then that she wasn't getting out of here today.
Ji Yuntang stretched lazily and spoke calmly: "Tao Zhi, you go back to the mansion first. This princess is going with them."
Tao Zhi's heart clenched instantly: "Princess, how can this be? They obviously don't look like good people. What if you're in danger going?"
Ji Yuntang said lightly: "If I don't go, we'll probably all be dead."
These people only blocked the road without attacking, which was enough to show that they meant no harm to her for now.
Since she couldn't escape, she might as well go and see what their purpose was.
"Alright, listen to me, this princess. Head back to the mansion first. I'll be back soon."
With that, Ji Yuntang got off the carriage, gave a few instructions to the driver, and said to the leading black-clad guard: "Lead the way!"
She didn't ask who wanted to see her, nor did she need to. It was probably either the Crown Prince or Prince Qi.
After all, these two were the ones behind the medical competition. She had them to thank for being able to participate.
At the Bailixiang Restaurant, Ji Yuntang was led inside and immediately met Luo Feizhou's handsome, refined face. He was smiling warmly, all enthusiastic.
"Third Sister-in-Law, you're finally here. I've been waiting forever. Come inside and have a seat."
Ji Yuntang: "..."
When someone's being all nice for no reason, they're up to no good!
If she hadn't already learned from Luo Junhe about Luo Feizhou's true character, she might have easily been fooled by his gentle and affable demeanor.
"The medical competition is over. What's Prince Qi's deal, sending so many people to drag me here?"
Ji Yuntang's tone was somewhat harsh, but Luo Feizhou didn't mind. He personally refilled her tea.
"Don't be mad, Third Sister-in-Law. I asked you here today to talk about something."
"This medical competition was created by me, to find a top-notch doctor to work for me. I've been looking for two years, and now I see the person I need is you, Third Sister-in-Law."
Ji Yuntang: "..."
So gross—she almost puked!
Ji Yuntang remained silent. Afraid she wouldn't buy it, Luo Feizhou's eyes darted, and he added with a grin:
