Not only did she get a lot of unexpected information, but she also gained a better understanding of it.

The information provided by Mr. Voice is just information, but in reality, people are not paintings that are fixed in a frame and will not change.

Communicating with them and deepening the impression are things that must be done.

Otherwise, even if you want to complete the task, it will be extremely difficult, right?

While he was thinking, Xingqiu, who had run up, came back with the book. There was a little sweat on his forehead and he was breathing heavily.

It can be seen that he cares very much about this matter, or perhaps, this kind of thing of helping others like a knight can give him a lot of satisfaction.

However, the so-called spiritual pleasure is only temporary, and some material sacrifices must be made to make the two match.

"My benefactor, could you please come closer?"

Yun Chang waved to Xing Qiu who was about to speak, and when he leaned over with a slightly puzzled look and without thinking, she used the handkerchief she carried with her to wipe the sweat off his face.

This made Xingqiu's face turn red, his delicate cheeks like a girl's were flushed, he wanted to refuse politely but he stammered and couldn't say anything.

Yun Shang was very satisfied with the subconscious softening of her waist and the reaction that was more in line with the girl's movements.

"Well. That's good. It's my way of expressing my gratitude. Ah, if you want, I can give you the handkerchief, too."

"No, that's not necessary! It's really not necessary, Miss Yunshang!"

Xingqiu waved his hands shyly, being completely played around by Yunchang, the little fox.

"Is that so? That's a pity. I would like to use this opportunity to have more exchanges with my benefactor."

"Uh... Miss Yunshang, although I am very touched by your honesty, is it really okay to just state your purpose like this?"

"Well, we are not discussing business. We are not seeking profit, and we have no calculations. Just follow your heart."

Yun Chang folded her handkerchief carefully, her tone relaxed and comfortable.

"Isn't it better to relax outside?"

Hearing this, Xingqiu couldn't help but feel a sense of approval.

"You're right. It's better to do more things that go your way when you're out there."

After all, he is not a swordsman of the Guhua School at home, but the second young master of the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce who needs to grow up as soon as possible and share the worries of his family.

Although he didn't really care about the family business and status, the Chamber of Commerce would definitely be inherited by his elder brother in the future. However, although the eldest brother loved his family, he was still a little dull in the business world and could hardly outsmart those cunning foxes who were full of calculations.

Without his help, the future of the Chamber of Commerce would be in jeopardy. This was not self-deprecation. The fact that he had been praised by his elders since he was a child proved that Xingqiu had excellent talents and character. If he was the eldest son, he would definitely be the heir.

However, compared to playing chips on the table of power and wealth, he still prefers this carefree life.

He glanced sideways at Miss Yunshang, who always had a gentle smile on her lips, and for some reason he felt a sense of sympathy for her.

From this brief time together, he could sense that although Miss Yunshang said that she was just an insignificant little character, not an ordinary person would introduce themselves like this. Moreover, the elegance revealed in her words and actions was enough to prove that her family must also be a prominent family in Liyue.

No one knows which family the daughter is from, and no one has ever revealed any rumors about her.

However, considering the other party's disabled body, it is not surprising that her elders deliberately concealed it for her.

"Hmm? My benefactor, why are you staring at me? If you keep staring, I won't be able to sleep at night."

Also, this kind of teasing personality...

Although he doesn't hate it and sometimes feels happy that his itch has been tickled, even he would feel embarrassed if he was teased like this all the time!

"I just felt that I hit it off with Miss Yunshang right away. I wonder what Miss Yunshang's family is like—"

"——Home, my home is long gone. I can't find it no matter how hard I look for it."

The girl shook her head gently, and spoke again with a slightly lonely yet relieved smile.

"Yun Shang is just Yun Shang now. As long as a few close friends care about her, I will be satisfied."

——Oh no! How could I, with my stupid mouth, expose someone else's scars again?

For the first time, Xingqiu had a little doubt about the fact that he was often praised for his excellent ability to read people's expressions. Could it be that the elders were coaxing him because he was young?! This time, he was really sorry for Miss Yunshang!

Chapter 5: Bubulu

He should have thought of it earlier. If Miss Yunshang had a well-off family, why would she travel alone without anyone to accompany her?

Even something as simple as delivering books had to be put off until I felt a little better before doing it myself. I had completely neglected it.

Xingqiu was so anxious that he apologized repeatedly: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry! It's really my fault. I never thought of Miss Yunshang..."

"Well, it's not a big deal. Besides, didn't the benefactor help me? Let's forget about it together, just like picking out the carrots we don't like when picking up the dishes."

Yun Shang just smiled softly, which made Xingqiu like her even more.

I have to say, compared to those spoiled and willful young ladies that my family took me to meet, Miss Yunshang is not only humorous and gentle, but also very considerate. If she were my fiancée——

No, no, Xingqiu, why did you suddenly think of this?

It is truly ungentlemanly to imagine Miss Yunshang in your mind like this.

After silently reciting a few sentences of the Heart Purification Sutra, the young man, who was still young, changed his words in time and said, "Miss Yunshang is absolutely right."

"Well, this matter is over. I should also take my leave. After all, if I delay, I am afraid that Mr. Bai from Bubulu will have to look for me everywhere..."

Yun Shang tactfully said goodbye, and although Xingqiu was reluctant to let her go, it was difficult for him to ask her to stay.

However, you should still try to retain the customer through words, at least to show your sincerity.

"In that case, this place is not far from Bubulu, how about I take Miss Yunchang there?"

Although he believed that Miss Yunshang would definitely decline, and was determined not to embarrass her, Xingqiu did not expect that -

"Okay, then Lord Lao En will give me a ride."

"Ah, even if I refuse, I won't—"

Xingqiu stood there in a daze, looking at Yunshang who was still sitting in the wheelchair and looking at him pretentiously, and was stunned for a moment.

"Hmm? So you were just being polite. Sigh... I blame myself for being too sincere. Sorry for bothering you..."

"No, please let me take Miss Yunshang there!"

Xingqiu changed his previous fearful look and spoke boldly like a knight.

"Hey, is it really okay? If you have something important to do, please don't worry and let me go alone."

Yun Chang plays hard to get.

"Of course. I have nothing to do. I'll just spend my time reading and practicing calligraphy when I go back. I might as well send Miss Yunshang off. It will also fulfill my wish."

In such an atmosphere, how could any man say "no"!

Even the passers-by couldn't help but cast approving glances.

However, when the limelight passed, Xingqiu looked embarrassed and irritated.

I always felt like I had fallen into the trap set by Miss Yunshang again. However, when I pushed her forward, although I couldn't see her expression clearly, I could tell from her slightly red ears.

He is not the only one who is shy——

However, unlike what Xingqiu thought, Yunchang was just ashamed of teasing others like this.

If the ages of my two lives were added together, perhaps being called aunt by a child like this would be enough. It would be really terrible for me to deceive such a child's sympathy.

Fortunately, the distance from Wanwenjishe to Bubulu was not far or near, but it was just enough time for both of them to sort out their feelings. When they talked again, they were no longer as reserved and shy as before.

Instead, there is a little more familiarity between friends.

"Oh, Miss Yunshang. Hmm... How about I call you Yunshang? You can also call me Xingqiu. I really can't bear the title of benefactor."

"No problem. I have no objection. If Xingqiu likes this, then it's fine."

Yun Chang nodded her head, and the intimacy between their words was obvious.

“Also, please rest assured. I will only call Xingqiu my benefactor—”

"Well...!"

Xingqiu, who was teased, stammered and was unable to speak.

It would be a lie to say that you don't want to be called that. Anyone would feel happy to be treated as a special person by others, especially by outstanding people of the opposite sex.

But on the other hand, considering their age, such a name is too embarrassing.

Although she is a girl, Miss Yunshang is even more arrogant than him in this respect. She is truly an extraordinary woman.

After successfully playing a trick on Xingqiu again, Bubulu arrived.

-

The inner courtyard is well-maintained, with small ponds on both sides of the road, with some green lotus leaves and beautiful lotus flowers in full bloom.

It can reduce the heat in viewers and make them feel more peaceful and natural.

The people coming and going ranged from the elderly to children, and most of them looked happy. Occasionally there were a few who were worried, as they were worried that the medicine was too bitter.

When he saw Xingqiu pushing the girl's wheelchair, he would take the initiative to make way and watch this strange pair go towards the medicine house.

Today, Agui was still in charge of prescribing medicine for people at the counter, while Mr. Bai was writing prescriptions in the inner room.

Another white snake, Changsheng, which could speak human language, had an immortal aura and had human pupils, coiled around the zombie Qiqi and nodded its head in boredom.

The weather was too hot, and both Changsheng and Qiqi were affected. They felt uninterested and lacked energy.

However, when he saw the girl's graceful figure appearing on the threshold, Changsheng suddenly raised his head, spit out his tongue excitedly, and quickly got off Qiqi and went into the inner room.

After Ah Gui had dispensed the medicine, he saw Yun Shang and Xing Qiu waiting on the side, and spoke in surprise.

"Hey, isn't this Miss Yunshang and Master Xingqiu? Why are you here together?"

"Ahem. I ran into Yun Shang on the road. The weather was too hot today, and I was worried that she might get a heat stroke. I was really worried, so I came here with her."

Although it might seem suspicious if I explained too much, at least there was nothing wrong with this excuse.

Yun Shang also nodded and said, "I asked him to send me here. Is Mr. Bai still here?"

"Yes. He is writing a prescription in the inner room. Qiqi, go call Mr. Bai and tell him that Miss Yunshang, who was supposed to come for a house call, is here."

Agui didn't think there was anything strange, so he called out to Qiqi, who was standing there in a daze, and asked her to help run errands.

However, before Qiqi could react, a slightly feminine male voice came from the inner room.

"No need, Changsheng has already told me that a patient is coming."

Bai Zhu, the doctor of Bubulu, lifted the curtain of the inner room with a gentle smile on his face. His snake-like pupils reflected the girl's figure, and Changsheng also coiled on his shoulders and greeted her.

"After all, this is the girl who is most afraid of our house visits. She is here in person, so we have to receive her as soon as possible."

Yun Chang, on the other hand, no longer looked as confident as before, and instead felt inexplicably frightened.

What’s going on? Am I so afraid of doctors?

Chapter 6 Atractylodes macrocephala

Bai Zhu, the doctor of Bubulu, has a reputation in Liyue Harbor that is hard to describe as "good" or "bad".

Most of the patients he treated thought he was a kind-hearted man, while others, influenced by rumors, believed he was trying to make the legendary elixir of life and believed he was the cause of trouble and would sooner or later bring a devastating disaster to Liyue.

However, no matter which one, Baizhu’s medical practice philosophy will not change.

Anyone who came to "Bubu Lu" for medical treatment would be treated equally, regardless of their status.

This is also related to the oath his teacher asked him to take.

The oath is roughly as follows: "…If someone comes to seek help for illness or distress, you should not ask whether he is rich or poor, nor should you look ahead or behind, worrying about good or bad luck. When you see the other person's distress, you should feel as if you were suffering from it yourself. In this way, you can be a great doctor for the people."

Therefore, Baizhu's medical treatment has never been affected by external factors, but mostly considers the patients. However, he also believes that doctors save the world and he himself is also among the world's people.

As a doctor, you have to save others as well as yourself. Self-sacrifice is certainly admirable, but no one is born to sacrifice for others. It shouldn't be like this.

Therefore, he never paid much attention to those rumors. It is better to say that good medicine often tastes bitter, so it should not be a problem for a good doctor to have some secrets in his heart, right?

These secrets are actually very mysterious and taboo to outsiders who don’t know much about them, but for true immortals, immortality is not as beautiful as mortals imagine.

But Bai Zhu still had an obsession with this, and took in Qiqi, a child who had a trace of consciousness retained by the immortal's secret method and survived on this side as a "zombie". He wanted to go with the flow, but also wanted to study the method of saving the dying from Qiqi.

Ultimately, there’s nothing wrong with any of this.

As for treating the little girl named Yun Shang, it was more out of curiosity about various strange diseases. If the disease could be cured, it would mean that there would be one less disease that troubles people in the world. As the disease accumulates bit by bit, all diseases in the world can be cured in the future. Isn't this a path to immortality?

How can we talk about losing money when we can't get such an opportunity at such a high price?
