Chapter 3541 Agreed
Yu Chengde didn't stay after he brought the person in. He left as soon as he was outside the courtyard.
The man saw the couple inside the courtyard and walked in. "Song Yiping pays his respects to Master Ling and Madam Ling."
He bowed, making sure to keep a respectful distance and not behave presumptuously. After all, he not only witnessed the ruthlessness of the two people in killing others, but he also tumbled down the stars after being suppressed by Master Ling's aura.
"Speak! Who are you seeking medical treatment for, and where is this person?" Feng Jiu propped her chin with one hand, looking at the man who claimed to be Song Yiping.
"My fiancée, Ye Ling, fell seriously ill in the tenth month of last year. Her once-dark hair has suddenly turned white, and she has stopped eating and drinking, acting as if she has lost her mind. Every night, she would wander off, only to reappear the next morning. Her body has wasted away, and she's now on her last breath, lying in bed."
He knelt before the couple and said, "I know the ancient physician's medical technique is extraordinary. Madam Ling, please help us. Even if it costs me, Song Yiping, my life, I won't hesitate!"
As they talked, a maid brought in food and wine and placed them on the table. Xuanyuan Mo Ze ignored Song Yiping as he began eating and drinking. He left everything to Feng Jiu to handle.
He would stand by her side whether or not she decided to save the person.
Feng Jiu, her clear eyes sparkling as she listened to his promise, slightly moved the hand propping her chin and asked, "Where is this person?"
"Ye Ling comes from a reclusive family, and she is currently in Hollow Rise Mountain," he said quickly. "I have a teleportation array connected to Ye's family. We can get there in less time than it takes an incense stick to burn if Madam Ling agrees."
"Let's go tomorrow! I will go with you to take a look," said Feng Jiu, glancing at him. "After I diagnose her, if I can treat her, the reward won't be low."
"As long as she can be saved, feel free to name your price, Madam Ling!"
Feng Jiu responded with a chuckle. "You are actually willing. Aren't you the one who mentioned that her once-dark hair had become white? Why? Won't you dislike her?"
"I grew up with Ah Ling. I don't care about her appearance," said Song Yiping.
"I didn't expect you to be a romantic. Fine, get up! We'll meet at the back mountain of Feng Manor tomorrow," Feng Jiu said, waving her hand to signal him to leave.
"Yes, thank you, Master Ling, Madam Ling," he stood up, cupped his fists as he thanked them, and left with a heart full of excitement.
The night was deep, but both were not sleepy. They enjoyed some food and drink in the courtyard, casually chatting. Only when they felt a bit sleepy did they return to their room to rest.
They didn't get up until late morning where they then washed up and went to Old Patriarch Yu's courtyard. Yu Chengde was waiting there already.
"Master Ling, Madam Ling, you're here! My father has woken up and said he wanted to meet you both," said Yu Chengde with a smile.
Both nodded and entered the room with Yu Chengde. The elderly man seated on the bed opened his eyes when he heard them coming in.
"Father, this is Master Ling and Madam Ling. They saved your life and the lives of our entire Yu family," Yu Chengde said from the side.
Old Patriarch Yu looked at them both, finally saying, "I am not in good health and can't bow to show my respect. Thank you both for saving my life. The Yu family is fortunate to have met such benefactors as you!"
