Chapter 35: Who would like him!

Lu Zhenting could only send someone to call Lin Jiaojiao to treat his wounds. Here, Lin Jiaojiao saw Lu Zhenting leave and immediately asked Song Shijie, "Does General Lu really have a wife?"

"She is a late wife." Song Shijie answered faintly. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Lin Jiaojiao with eyes that could see through everything: "Why, do you like him?"

"Who would like him!" Lin Jiaojiao argued with her mouth, but she didn't think so in her heart!

But to cover up her complicated mood, she changed the subject and said: "I haven't eaten since I woke up, I'm hungry, and I'm a little sleepy. Look, it's almost dark outside. You also need to rest more so that your wounds can heal quickly. Let's do this: I will send you back to your room first, and then I will go eat something and go to bed early."

But before she was ready to go back to eat, Li Guanjia came to call her, "Divine Physician, the General is injured, you need to go and treat his wounds."

Lin Jiaojiao felt inexplicably nervous for a moment, "Is the wound deep?"

Song Shijie snorted from his nose, "I couldn't tell at all just now that he was injured."

"Whether the wound is deep or not, the Divine Physician will have to go and see to know." Li Guanjia said faintly, "Lin Guniang, please."

Lin Jiaojiao followed behind Li Guanjia to Lu Zhenting's room. As soon as she entered the door, Li Guanjia withdrew, saying he was going to get her medicine box and would send someone to take Lord Song to dinner.

Lin Jiaojiao entered the door and looked up, only to see Lu Zhenting shirtless, revealing those strong, sturdy muscles. A nosebleed immediately shot out.

Lu Zhenting was originally facing away from her. Hearing the sound, he turned back to look, but what he saw was Lin Jiaojiao covering her nose and immediately turning her head. He was a little strange, but in any case, it was not good to ask too much. Moreover, now that the two were alone in a room, he was still a little happy in his heart.

Lu Zhenting said politely, "I have a few wounds on my body, please help me treat them, Divine Physician."

Lin Jiaojiao wiped her nosebleed and said without looking back, "The General's wounds are not deep; the House Physician can treat them. I, I have other things to do. I, I haven't massaged Tiezhu yet, I'm leaving!"

After saying that, she ran away like she was fleeing a disaster, leaving only Lu Zhenting there, staring at her back in a daze.

Lin Jiaojiao walked along, covering her nose regardless of anything. Because it was dark and there were no lanterns, she bumped into someone unexpectedly.

"Ah! Sorry, sorry!" Lin Jiaojiao knocked the person to the ground and went to help them up while apologizing.

The person she bumped into was a young man wearing a Floating Light Robe embroidered with totems. He looked as handsome as jade, and one look told her he was either rich or noble. Lin Jiaojiao secretly regretted not looking where she was going, fearing she had offended some noble in the Capital and brought trouble upon herself.

"It's fine." The man she bumped into patted the dust off his body. Lin Jiaojiao hurriedly picked up the lantern she had knocked down and stuffed it into the young man's hand.

The man took the lantern and, by the candlelight, saw Lin Jiaojiao clearly. But as soon as he saw her face, he saw the nosebleed all over it, and thought it was caused by bumping into him.

"Guniang, you are bleeding. Do you need me to call an Imperial Physician for you?" The young man asked subconsciously.

"No need, no need, I just have too much internal heat." Lin Jiaojiao covered her mouth and nose embarrassedly, reaching into her sleeve to find a handkerchief to wipe it, but who knew she couldn't find one no matter what.

Seeing this, the young man handed over his own handkerchief. Lin Jiaojiao took it, said thank you, and then wiped her nosebleed clean.

Fortunately, it was autumn, and the air outside the room was cool. She felt the capillaries in her nasal cavity contract because of the cold air, and the nosebleed stopped flowing.

After she wiped the nosebleed clean, she felt embarrassed to return the handkerchief stained with blood to the other party, "Your handkerchief was dirtied by me. Let me wash it clean and return it to you later?"

"Okay." The young man responded. He looked at Lin Jiaojiao, and for some reason, he suddenly thought of the woman he had been missing from the past until now.

Especially her brows and eyes, they were the same watery apricot eyes. The more he looked, the more he felt she looked like the woman he had missed for many years. However, the woman in front of him had a fresh and lively temperament, which was somewhat different from the person he thought about day and night.

Once he thought of that woman, his eyes were covered with a thin mist, and even his voice became a little wet, "Guniang, you look unfamiliar. May I ask who you are to General Lu?"

Hearing the man's question, Lin Jiaojiao answered politely, "My name is Lin Jiaojiao. I am just staying at General Lu's mansion temporarily to treat his mother."

"So you are the Divine Physician invited by General Lu," the young man praised, "Today I heard General Lu say that you saved the life of the Dali Temple Junior Minister. You are truly a Divine Physician with miraculous hands."

"Did General Lu praise me like that?" Lin Jiaojiao felt happy in her heart when she heard she was praised by General Lu, "Are you a friend of General Lu?"

The man smiled and nodded, "Yes, my name is Qin Yuan. When General Lu spoke with me today, he mentioned you many times."

"Is that so?" Lin Jiaojiao was overjoyed and asked casually, "It seems you have a very good relationship, coming to find him so late."

"I am not here to find General Lu. I heard that the Dali Temple Junior Minister was injured and is recuperating in the General's Mansion, so I came to visit."

"Oh, oh, you are here to see Song Shijie," Lin Jiaojiao pointed the way, "He lives in that room. You can go visit him. But don't talk to him for too long; he still needs to rest more so that he can heal quickly."

"How are his injuries?" Qin Yuan asked.

"Very serious. I have never seen such knife wounds. The longest wound is 20 centimeters! The deepest wound is close to 10 centimeters, and he lost so much blood he almost lost his life!" Lin Jiaojiao answered truthfully, "He needs to recuperate well for a while and cannot move around."

Once his wounds heal, he will probably have to marry me. Lin Jiaojiao hid the rest of her words in her heart. Although she didn't dislike Song Shijie, whenever she thought of getting married, her mind was full of Lu Zhenting's figure.

It's over, it's over, I'm about to fall! This can't be! Song Shijie already said he had a late wife. No matter how good the later people are, they can't compare to the deceased white moonlight.

"You go ahead and see him. I have other things to do, so I won't accompany you to see Song Shijie." Lin Jiaojiao said, waved goodbye to the young man, and then hurried away.

"Okay." Qin Yuan watched Lin Jiaojiao's back, then made a gesture. A figure emerged from the darkness. Qin Yuan pointed at Lin Jiaojiao, "Weiying, go and investigate the background of this woman."

"Yes! Master!" The person responded and soon disappeared into the dark night. ===== CHAPTER 36 =====
