Warm medicine emits fragrance

Chapter 192 The man said she was Lady Fan's husband.

She immediately ran inside, hid behind Li Chenbi's wheelchair, leaned over his shoulder, and whispered, "It's that person! The one you hit!"

She had just glimpsed the man's face through the gap in his veil, and it terrified her; this man even knew her name.

It seems that this time, the revenge is aimed at her as well.

She couldn't care less about arguing with Li Chenbi now; Li Chenbi was the only person she could rely on, so she had to quickly hide behind him.

Li Chenbi patted her hand on his shoulder and said softly, "It's okay, you can go inside first."

Fan Liuer breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing Li Chenbi's calm tone.

Li Chenbi always has a way; he's always been very capable.

Having no intention of watching the commotion, she left with a "Then be careful" and quickly ran into the house, leaving Qi Weiming's voice behind.

"Fan Liuer, don't run away, it really is you..."

"Who's making a racket outside!" This time it was Li Qiuping who spoke up, his voice loud and clear, drowning out Qi Weiming's next words.

Li Qiuping pushed Li Chenbi out of the courtyard gate and then closed the gate behind him.

Qi Weiming saw the two servants emerge, his face flushed with anger, "It really was you!"

As he spoke, he reached out to push Feng Ji, but Feng Ji stood in front of him and didn't move.

Qi Weiming was so angry that he reached for his sword, but Li Chenbi said, "Feng Ji, you go back first."

Feng Ji glanced back at Li Chenbi, nodded, and stepped back without asking any further questions before turning and walking into the shop.

Without Feng Ji's obstruction, Qi Weiming drew his sword and charged towards Li Chenbi.

Li Qiuping was about to make a move when Li Chenbi stopped him.

In an instant, Qi Weiming's sword was right in front of him; a little further and it would pierce Li Chenbi's throat.

He neither flinched nor dodged, remaining firmly seated in his wheelchair, calmly observing Qi Weiming with a mocking gaze in his eyes.

Qi Weiming gritted his teeth in anger: "Don't think I really wouldn't dare to kill you."

Li Chenbi scoffed, "Isn't that the truth?"

Qi Weiming was so angry that his face turned black, but he dared not thrust his sword forward any further.

Li Chenbi is now a favorite of Yan Qi, so he really can't kill him at this time.

Sheathing his sword, he said in a deep voice, "I can let bygones be bygones. Step aside."

Li Chenbi laughed upon hearing this, but the smile didn't reach his eyes; a chilling glint flashed within them. "What right do you have to question me?"

"Li Chenbi, don't push your luck! Fan Liuer is my wife!" Qi Weiming gritted his teeth in anger.

"You say she's your wife, so she's your wife? Does she know you? Does she know your name? Have any of your friends or family members seen her? Do you have a marriage certificate? Has she been registered with the government?"

Li Chenbi's question left Qi Weiming speechless; he couldn't answer a single question.

He snapped, "You clearly know everything, don't play dumb with me!"

Li Chenbi leaned back in his chair, glancing at him. "Who's really playing dumb?"

"Didn't you see her run away as soon as she saw you?"

"She sees you as her most precious possession, and she'll only run to me when she's in danger. Don't you understand that? Why do you keep pestering her?"

"Lord Qi, you are no longer the commoner in the martial arts world, but a military officer under General Yan. You should do things with more dignity."

When it comes to verbal sparring, Qi Weiming knew he was no match for Li Chenbi, and he didn't intend to waste any more words on him.

"Make her come out here, I want to talk to her face to face."

Li Chenbi's expression turned even colder. "Qi Weiming, for General Yan's sake, I've already given you enough patience. Don't be courting death."

Qi Weiming stared intently at him. "I should be the one saying that."

The two were on the verge of exchanging blows, and Qi Weiming's subordinates behind him were so frightened by the tense atmosphere that they dared not even breathe.

After a moment, Li Chenbi spoke up: "Since you're going to drag this out, then let's just keep dragging it out. I still have half a month of vacation left, what about you?"

Qi Weiming stared at him for a long time, then looked up at the courtyard wall. Suddenly, he seemed to remember something, and his expression relaxed.

"You know you only have two weeks of vacation left, Li Chenbi. You can hide her for a while, but can you hide her forever?"

"As long as you keep her by your side, I'll always have a chance to see her." After saying this, Qi Weiming gave Li Chenbi a provocative smile, then raised his hand to signal to his subordinates behind him.

"I'm gone."

Qi Weiming led his men away, and Li Qiuping and the others waited until they were far away before looking down at Li Chenbi.

"Master..."

He swallowed the rest of his words, his face turning extremely pale.

It was just as ugly as the day he learned that Fan Liuer had run away.

He dared not utter a sound.

Fan Liuer waited in the room for a while. At first, there were some noises outside, but then there was no more movement.

Could it be that the fight is over?

But it doesn't sound like a fight has broken out.

Could it be that Li Chenbi is so powerful that he can kill people without even standing up?

Just as she was lost in thought, the bedroom door was pushed open, and Li Chenbi appeared in front of her.

Fan Liuer immediately stepped forward, first examining him, and seeing nothing amiss, then looking up towards the courtyard gate.

"So...they're gone?"

Li Chenbi hummed in agreement.

Fan Liuer let out a long breath and relaxed completely. "I was so scared. He brought so many people with him. I thought we were going to fight this time."

Li Chenbi looked up at her, but didn't respond to her words.

Fan Liuer was still in shock and didn't pay attention to Li Chenbi's reaction. She turned around, walked to the table, poured herself a cup of tea to calm her nerves, and asked Li Chenbi after drinking it.

"Would you like some tea? It's not hot; I cooled it down during the day."

Li Chenbi looked at her and answered irrelevantly, "Fan Liuer, come with me."

Fan Liuer paused, her delicate brows furrowing, and after a long while, she finally spoke: "Is he that powerful? Even you have to avoid him?"

Li Chenbi nodded, "Yes, he is very capable. He is General Yan's most favored deputy, and he is extremely vengeful. I offended him before, and he has held a grudge ever since."

"Now that he doesn't dare to kill me, he keeps trying to find something on me to blackmail me."

"I only have half a month of leave. As soon as the leave is over, I have to go back to General Yan's side. If you don't come with me, he will definitely come looking for you and use you to blackmail me."

Fan Liuer was in a state of great inner turmoil.

If she didn't go with Li Chenbi, she was afraid that he would come looking for trouble.

If she goes with Li Chenbi, wouldn't that bring her closer to that person? There will always be times when Li Chenbi can't take care of her, and that person will still cause her trouble.

She felt that neither of these two options was easy to find, and while struggling with the decision, she said to Li Chenbi, "Let me think about it."

At this time, Feng Jijia.

As Feng Jigang entered the shop, he bumped into Siqing, who was rushing out from the backyard. Siqing asked, "What happened? I heard someone call Sister Liu'er's name?"

Feng Ji looked at her, seemingly wanting to say something but then stopping himself.

Siqing grew impatient, "Say something!"

Feng Ji pursed his lips and said, "That person said she is Lady Fan's husband."
