Chapter 236

"Host, new task."

Yun Qiyue's footsteps stalled, "What task?"

"Repair the relationship between the husband and the Princess," the system's mechanical voice came.

Yun Qiyue: "What's the reward?"

System: "No reward."

Yun Qiyue: "What?"

No reward? It wasn't teasing her, was it?

System: "Complete this task, and the host will have eight more tasks to own a modern pharmacy, which has everything."

Yun Qiyue: "..."

So it was equivalent to saying that the previous task reward of a modern pharmacy was the last task, right?

Truly—

"I want the opportunity to choose any medicine."

Although the pharmacy was indeed very attractive.

But letting her do a task always had to give some sweetness, right?

After all, she didn't know when the ten tasks would be finished, she didn't know when the pharmacy would be available, and she hadn't gone to the Ghost Doctor Pavilion to treat patients for a long time, so her points were limited.

If a patient suddenly came, and she had no points and no medicine, wouldn't that be awkward?

So no matter what, she had to fight for a benefit for herself.

The system seemed to pause for a moment, then nodded very straightforwardly.

"Fine."

Yun Qiyue: "..." It agreed so easily?

This wasn't scientific.

She always felt that this system was strange, but Yun Qiyue had no evidence.

Her consciousness left the system, but she saw the Princess Xuanyuan Rao looking at her with displeasure.

"What? What are you still standing here for?"

Yun Qiyue: "..."

Truly, every time she came, she was a punching bag.

She really wanted to just leave.

But thinking of the husband Qin Huaijing, Yun Qiyue still endured it.

Although the Princess looked at her with displeasure, the husband Qin Huaijing was still a good person.

And she, as an outsider, could see that the husband was concerned about the Princess, and the Princess wasn't without feelings for the husband.

Just now, the Princess still let her see the husband, which showed that the Princess really cared about the husband very much.

So, Yun Qiyue was actually very curious about why the two had misunderstandings, and why they had been misunderstanding for so many years.

Women were more gossipy about emotional matters, and she considered herself no exception.

And it was clear that she couldn't get the answer from the Princess's side, which could be seen from the Princess's attitude toward her.

So, she still had to start with the husband.

Even if it wasn't for the husband Qin Huaijing, for the sake of her pharmacy, she had to charge forward, right?

Thinking of this, Yun Qiyue decided to ignore the Princess's bad temper and turned to leave.

Seeing Yun Qiyue's near-disrespectful attitude, the Princess frowned but didn't make trouble.

Only after Yun Qiyue left did she say with displeasure: "Just like her mother."

Yun Qiyue walked familiarly to the husband's residence.

When Yun Qiyue arrived, Qin Huaijing and Yuqing were sitting there playing chess.

Seeing Yun Qiyue, Yuqing stood up and stood silently behind Qin Huaijing.

Yun Qiyue sat in Yuqing's seat and looked at the chessboard.

Yuqing was the white pieces, and at this time, the white pieces had been surrounded, and total annihilation was only a matter of time.

Seeing this, Yun Qiyue picked up a chess piece at random and placed it in a position on the chessboard.

Seeing this, Qin Huaijing couldn't help but frown.

Because the position Yun Qiyue placed it in would allow the white pieces to be almost totally annihilated in the next step...

No, wait!

Qin Huaijing noticed something unusual and couldn't help but stare at the chessboard.

Then, his expression was surprised, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Yun Qiyue was full of appreciation.

What total annihilation, that was clearly seeking life in the midst of death.

As long as he ate her white piece, within three steps, she would definitely be able to disrupt the overall situation of the black pieces.

Meeting an opponent in chess, Qin Huaijing was very excited and very focused.

The two played move by move like this.

The doctor wasn't anxious, and the patient wasn't anxious either.

Back and forth, despite the white pieces being in a weak position, they eventually ended up in a draw.

After the game ended, Qin Huaijing didn't let Yuqing clean up the chessboard but said with a smile in his eyes, "It's been a long time since I've played chess so intensely."

Yun Qiyue smiled, "If Uncle Qin is willing, I will often accompany you to play chess."

Upon hearing this, Qin Huaijing smiled, "With you coming over, I definitely won't be bored."

Yun Qiyue smiled, stood up, and said, "Today is the last time I will perform acupuncture for Uncle Qin, let's go inside first."

Upon hearing this, Qin Huaijing also stood up, not asking anything.

He trusted Yun Qiyue very much.

For so many years, he had long been indifferent to life and death, and his body was also getting worse day by day.

But now, it was extremely good.

He could feel that his body was now not much different from an ordinary person.

Entering the room, Yuqing wanted to undress Qin Huaijing, but was refused by Qin Huaijing, "I'll do it myself, you go out first."

Yuqing didn't make a sound and retreated directly.

Qin Huaijing took off his upper garment.

At this time, Qin Huaijing was still thin, and his skin was pale because he rarely touched the sun.

However, compared to the first time they met, it was much better.

At least, he looked more like a normal person.

Yun Qiyue took out her silver needles and performed acupuncture for Qin Huaijing unhurriedly.

Although this acupuncture was the last time, it was crucial, so Yun Qiyue's movements were incredibly focused, without a moment of distraction.

And Qin Huaijing, the patient, was also very cooperative, not moving or making a sound throughout the process.

As time passed, fine beads of sweat appeared on Yun Qiyue's forehead.

Finally, it was time to remove the needles.

Unlike the previous needle removal steps, this time the needle removal was almost the opposite of the front.

When the last silver needle was removed by Yun Qiyue, with a 'puff', Qin Huaijing spat out a mouthful of black blood.

Seeing the color of the blood, Yun Qiyue finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Qin Huaijing's illness was an old one, and he had taken too much medicine, accumulating some toxins from the medicine; this was why it was said that medicine is three parts poison.

Now, these toxins were considered completely discharged.

Qin Huaijing himself also felt much more comfortable after spitting out a mouthful of blood.

Seeing Yun Qiyue's pale face, Qin Huaijing shouted outside, "Yuqing."

Yuqing pushed the door open, walked in quietly, and waited quietly for Qin Huaijing's instructions.

Yuqing was the quietest servant Yun Qiyue had ever seen, bar none.

She rarely heard Yuqing take the initiative to speak.

"Go prepare tea and snacks." Qin Huaijing ordered while putting on his clothes.

Yuqing nodded and retreated.

Not long after, both were sitting in the courtyard, with tea and snacks in front of them.

After eating a piece of snack and drinking a sip of tea, Yun Qiyue finally felt a bit more comfortable.

And now, it was the best opportunity to speak.

"Uncle Qin, there is something I want to ask you..."
