“Impudent! Stop at once! What do you guys want to do to Le’er?”

Before the silver needle in Su Ying’s hand could pierce the skin, the door was pushed open with a loud bang, and a furious Xie Rui barged in.

Everyone in the room was shocked.

“Your Highness, why… why are you here?” Xiang Hualan was very shocked to see Xie Rui barging in.

Xie Rui looked at the people in the room and was also stunned. Earlier, the maidservant of the Xiang family’s residence came to him and informed him that Xiang Hualan suddenly had a strange illness and had to be treated using blood from Xiang Shule’s heart.

What was this thing called the blood of the heart? Could a person still live after the blood of her heart was taken?

When Xie Rui received the news, he rushed over without further thought. “Where’s Le’er? Where did you guys take Le’er?”

Old Mistress Xiang didn’t expect Xie Rui to suddenly show up. If he found out that Xiang Shule had leprosy, it would be terrible.

“Your Highness, why are you here? Le’er is feeling a little unwell today and she has already gone to rest. Your Highness, please come back another day.”

Old Mistress Xiang’s words further confirmed Xie Rui’s suspicions. Based on Xiang Shule’s words, the Xiang family was very close to Xiang Hualan. Xiang Hualan had the final say in the Xiang residence, so Old Mistress Xiang’s actions seem to be covering for Xiang Hualan in Xie Rui’s eyes.

“No, I want to see Le’er now. Otherwise, I won’t leave!”

Old Mistress Xiang was a little annoyed, but she didn’t dare to offend Xie Rui.

“Your Highness, Younger Sister… Younger Sister will be fine. Don’t worry, Your Highness.” Xiang Hualan looked at Xie Rui with a guilty expression.

Xie Rui looked at the silver needle in Su Ying’s hand and retorted angrily, “What are you guys doing? Le’er! Le’ er!”

“Argh!” Suddenly, a slight commotion was heard coming from the inner room. Xie Rui realized something and quickly walked toward the inner room.

Old Mistress Xiang and Second Mistress Xiang both had terrified expressions on their faces, but they couldn’t stop Xie Rui now that he was inside. Fortunately, Xiang Shule had taken the medicine Su Ying had given her, so there weren’t any red spots on her face. Surely she wouldn’t be exposed!

“Argh!”

Xie Rui’s terrified scream suddenly rang out from the room.

The expressions on the faces of Old Mistress Xiang and the others changed slightly as they followed him in. They immediately saw Xiang Shule with red spots all over her face.

“Younger Sister, quickly hide yourself! You have leprosy. Don’t tell me you want to pa.s.s the infection to the First Prince!” Xiang Hualan screamed at the appropriate time.

Leprosy!

Xie Rui practically flew out of the house.

When Xiang Shule saw that Xie Rui had run away, she was reluctant to give up and ran after him. “Your Highness, don’t be afraid. My illness can be cured. 1 will be cured soon.”

“Yes, Your Highness. Don’t worry. This isn’t leprosy at all. Le’er will definitely recover.”

Xie Rui stared in horror at Xiang Shule’s face, which was covered with red spots and sores, and backed away repeatedly. In the past, in order to show off in front of the Emperor, he had even taken the initiative to follow people to Lepers’ Mountain to deliver supplies to those patients.

Of course, before he went there, the soldiers had already locked up the patients securely. They would never let him come into contact with those infected people. However, despite all the precautions, a patient still ran out suddenly.

Xie Rui would never forget the appearance of that leper. He looked just like Xiang Shule now!

“Don’t come near me! Don’t come near me!” Xie Rui screamed in horror. As Xiang Shule kept coming closer and closer, he immediately ran away without looking back.

Xiang Shule still wanted to give chase, but she was stopped by the people of the Xiang residence. If she ran out looking like this, the Xiang family could forget about leading a good life henceforth!

“Your Highness, Your Highness, don’t go!”

“What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and bring Second Young Miss back to the house!” Old Mistress Xiang screamed without consideration for her dignity.

She couldn’t be bothered to run after Xie Rui to explain. The most important thing now was to cure Xiang Shule’s illness.

Old Mistress Xiang turned around and saw Su Ying walking toward her with a porcelain bottle.

“The blood of the heart from Eldest Young Miss has already dripped into the medicine. Old Mistress Xiang, feed this medicine to Second Young Miss.”

Old Mistress Xiang looked at Xiang Hualan, who was leaning against the chair with a pale face, and was a little surprised. How could the process be so fast?

Su Ying didn’t bother to explain and placed the porcelain bottle in the old woman’s hand straightaway.

“Eldest Young Miss’s condition is not good. Get someone to send Eldest Young Miss back to her courtyard first.”

Old Mistress Xiang was thinking about Xiang Shule and didn’t have the presence of mind to care about Xiang Hualan’s well-being. She watched Xiang Hualan’s maidservant help her away without saying anything.

After returning to Xiang Hualan’s courtyard and closing the door, Xiang Hualan became alert at once.

She felt really delighted when she recalled Xie Rui’s terrified face!

She knew Xie Rui well. After seeing Xiang Shule’s appearance today, he would never entertain the thought of marrying her again.

“Thank you, Miss Su. I have also made a fool of myself in front of you.” Xiang Hualan stood in front of Su Ying and bowed to thank her. She was truly grateful to Su Ying. Otherwise, she didn’t know how long she would have been fooled by these people.

“Don’t mention it. Take this and eat it.” Su Ying took out a bottle of medicine and tossed it to her.

Xiang Hualan was a little baffled. “Is there something wrong with my body?”

“The cold affliction is so strong in your body it is practically gus.h.i.+ng out from the top of your head. If you don’t take my medicine, you won’t be able to get pregnant in this lifetime.”

Xiang Hualan’s face turned pale. “How did this happen…”

“If I’m not wrong, this should be due to food poisoning. They started with your daily diet and gradually added some foods that have a particularly strong cooling attribute to your diet. Your body probably started having problems after you began having your periods. During every menstrual cycle, your period is either delayed or you suffer from so much pain that you want to die, is that right?”

Xiang Hualan didn’t expect Su Ying to be able to tell. “Yes. 1 was wondering why a martial arts pract.i.tioner like me would feel so much pain…”

“That was caused by the cold affliction. Moreover, the skills you’re practicing require brute force. In the future, spend your time and effort to practice circulating your energy. Otherwise, you won’t be able to replenish the yang energy that you lost.”

As a martial arts pract.i.tioner herself, Xiang Hualan could naturally understand the meaning of Su Ying’s words. “Thank you for your advice, Miss Su. May I know where you live, Miss Su? Are you staying in Duo City for long? I really want to be friends with you, Miss Su.”

Su Ying tilted her head slightly and looked at her. “We’ll meet again if fate decrees it.”

Xiang Hualan saw that she was unwilling to reveal too much and did not force her. “Alright then. We’ll meet again if fate decrees it.”

Xiang Hualan personally sent Su Ying off from the Xiang residence. “Miss Su, take care.”

“You too.”

Xiang Hualan watched the back of the horse carriage as it left and her eyes were filled with melancholy. She didn’t really have many friends of the same s.e.x. The well-born young ladies of Duo City thought she was vulgar and barbaric and were unwilling to interact with her. Although Su Ying always gave people the impression that she was an aloof bystander, Xiang Hualan felt that she wasn’t truly a heartless person. It was really a pity. If only Su Ying would remain in Duo City.

Xiang Hualan turned around and returned to the Xiang residence. She went straight to the storage room and asked her guards to move everything out.

Old Mistress Xiang and the others were still worried about Xiang Shule’s situation and had no time to care about Xiang Hualan. By the time they received the news, Xiang Hualan had already gotten her people to empty the storage room.

Old Mistress Xiang felt that something was wrong and went to confront Xiang Hualan. By then, Xiang Hualan was no longer in the residence!

“This b.a.s.t.a.r.d! b.a.s.t.a.r.d! Don’t come back if she has the guts!”
