Even though they were old acquaintances, Shu Yu did not want to be recognized. After all, she was no longer the third miss of the Shu family. However, Lu Erbai suddenly exclaimed in shock, “What are they doing?”
Shu Yu turned her head again and saw Doctor Zhao, who used to be gentle, polite, and extremely patient when treating people, was now pushed to the ground. A few children surrounded him, laughing and jumping around, calling him a big fool while pulling his clothes, and even spitting at him.
Doctor Zhao, on the other hand, was stunned for a moment. He then covered his face and began to cry. As he cried, he waved his hands and shouted, “Don’t hit me, don’t eat me. I’m not delicious, sob…”
He had been holding a piece of bread in his hand, but it was snatched away by two children.
He felt extremely aggrieved, “I’m hungry. Give it back to me. I’m begging you. Give it back to me.”
Shu Yu was stunned. She never thought that the easy-going Doctor Zhao would become like this.
Did Young Master Meng know? Where was Young Master Meng?
Lu Erbai couldn’t possibly just watch the doctor who had saved him become like this and still be bullied by others. Naturally, Shu Yu couldn’t either. Seeing that Lu Erbai was about to go over, Shu Yu stopped him, “I’ll go.”
She jumped down from the carriage and ran directly to the children. Her face darkened as she shouted, “Stop, or I’ll throw you all into the river.”
When Shu Yu’s face was stern, she did look quite scary. The children looked at each other, took the bread, and ran away.
After everyone had left, Shu Yu squatted and looked at the person in front of her. She called him in a low voice, “Doctor Zhao, Doctor Zhao?”
Doctor Zhao covered his face and curled up into a ball. His stomach was growling.
Shu Yu paused, turned around, and walked to Madam Ruan’s side. She took out a piece of pastry from the basket.
She had just bought them for Dahu and Sanya to eat.
Shu Yu returned to Doctor Zhao’s side and handed the pastry over, “Doctor Zhao, this is for you.”
Doctor Zhao raised his head in a daze and carefully sized up Shu Yu. Then, he suddenly reached out and snatched the pastry over, taking a few fierce bites.
Shu Yu opened her mouth and was about to ask him something, but Doctor Zhao seemed to be afraid that the pastry in his hand would be snatched away again. He quickly hugged it when he was halfway through eating, then got up and ran away without looking back.
“Hey…” Shu Yu was stunned for a moment.
Then, she turned around and said to Lu Erbai and the rest, “Dad, mum, get in the carriage first. I’ll go and take a look. I’ll be back in a while.”
Lu Erbai stuck his head out, “Be careful.
Shu Yu had already rushed out. Fortunately, Doctor Zhao was not running fast and even bumped into people from time to time, so she caught up with him very quickly.
Doctor Zhao noticed that someone was following him and became increasingly nervous. It didn’t take long for him to enter an alley.
When Shu Yu turned the corner and caught up with him, she heard Doctor Zhao banging on the door of a small courtyard and shouting in horror, “Open the door, Ah Yun, open the door. There are bad people. Bad people are chasing me and trying to kill me. I’m so scared.”
Shu Yu could only stop in her tracks and explain helplessly, “I’m not a bad person, and I’m not…”
Before she could finish her sentence, the door of the courtyard was opened, and a figure that Shu Yu was also familiar with walked out.
Young… Young Master Meng?
To think he was here as well.
As soon as the door opened, Doctor Zhao slipped into the courtyard under Meng Yuncheng’s arm and grabbed his clothes in fear. He poked his head out from the latter’s side while sizing up Shu Yu..
