Gu Mang walked into the living room languidly. Fishing out a post-it from her pocket, she passed it to Qin Rui.
He took the paper and saw the poor handwriting detailing the prescription. He paused for a moment before replying, “I’ll go get the medicine tomorrow.”
Mrs. Qin squeezed her hands and asked anxiously, “Ms. Gu, how long will Yaozhi take to recover?”
She asked vaguely since it was concerning women’s health.
Pointing her chin towards the prescription in Qin Rui’s hand, Gu Mang responded in a cool voice, “Consume the medicine and it’ll take effect within 48 hours.”
“Within 48 hours?” Mrs. Qin looked at her in disbelief.
Faint annoyance showed on Gu Mang’s face as she put on her cap and patiently hummed in response, “Mm.”
Feeling uneasy, Mrs. Qin looked at Qin Rui and began to doubt Gu Mang’s skills. Qin Yaozhi had consulted both local and foreign doctors for the past six months. They had even invited experts from a medical organization to have a look but to no avail.
And she could treat her in such a short span of time?
Qin Rui shot his mother a comforting glance. Since Gu Mang had cured Matriarch Lu, she had to be competent. Furthermore, it was just one prescription and there was no harm trying. He would try anything out of desperation.
Lu Chengzhou was not the only one looking for the legendary Miracle Doctor. He was looking for the doctor as well. However, he could not gather any information on the Miracle Doctor because it had all been deleted by hackers. The Miracle Doctor must have come from a powerful background.
Witnessing his sister’s flailing health and loss of appetite, his cousin convinced him to give Gu Mang a try. Now he could only hope that Gu Mang’s treatment worked.
Qin Rui and Mrs. Qin personally saw Gu Mang out.
“Ms. Gu, are you going to return to school?” Qin Rui asked politely.
Gu Mang took a look at the time. The dormitory’s doors were closed at 11.30 P.M. and seeing that there was still an hour, she replied, “Mm.”
“Let me drive you,” Qin Rui responded, in a great mood as he walked towards the car.
Gu Mang took two steps before pausing and turning to look at Mrs. Qin.
Mrs. Qin froze for a second when her eyes met Gu Mang’s deep, chilly eyes. She then smiled politely. “Ms. Gu, is anything the matter?”
Hearing his mother’s voice, Qin Rui paused in his tracks and turned to look. The mansion’s lights shone on Gu Mang’s face and cast a shadow over half of her stunning face, making it exude an oppressive aura.
“Mrs. Qin, did you know that Qin Yaozhi has suicidal tendencies?” Gu Mang asked insipidly.
Upon hearing the news Mrs. Qin’s face became ashen. “What, h-how could this be…”
Qin Rui was taken aback as well and could not believe that his sister would do such a thing.
Gu Mang pushed her cap up and replied aloofly, “It’s merely a delay in menstruation and it won’t kill her. However, if she can’t decide her life path she will choose death.”
Mrs. Qin appeared flustered as she squeezed her hands subconsciously but she was angered to tears internally.
Her eyes turned red, obviously exasperated at her daughter’s failure to live up to her expectations. “I’m merely asking her to study. How tiring can studying be? Is she going to commit suicide if I don’t let her dance? Isn’t she letting us down? Which child didn’t go through this!”
There was a hint of wickedness in Gu Mang’s chuckle. “Isn’t it? Who doesn’t have their breaking point? The straw is light but without it it won’t break the camel’s back. You think that you’re only forbidding her from dancing? It seems like there’s more.”
Mrs. Qin pursed her lips and her exquisite face twitched slightly due to her guilty conscience.
Gu Mang cocked her head to the side and looked at her nonchalantly. “I can cure amenorrhea but can’t save someone who wants to commit suicide.”
After that she headed to the car.
Qin Rui returned to his senses and said to Mrs. Qin, who was still in shock, “Mom, head in first.”
He then went to open the car door for Gu Mang personally.
Before getting in the car, Gu Mang suddenly narrowed her eyes and looked at the row of cedar trees not far away, her eyes cold.
