Mu Shaoling burst into laughter upon hearing that. He gave Yang Chuxia a thumbs up, thinking that this girl was really cooperating well.
However, Ye Zi’an was not so happy.
Yang Chuxia felt a very resentful gaze on her. She turned her head to see it was none other than Ye Zi’an.
"Hehe, Brother An." Yang Chuxia called out with a smile, but his expression remained unchanged, "My lord?"
Seeing his face improve slightly, Yang Chuxia persisted in calling him a few more times. Ye Zi’an’s face regained its usual calm, like still water, serene and waveless.
Mu Shaoling snorted, "You’re so stupid. Fine, I won’t tease you anymore. I’ll be returning to the city in two days."
Ye Zi’an replied indifferently, "Why not tomorrow?"
This remark made Mu Shaoling jump, "Yang Chuxia, can you please control this man? His childishness is making me really can’t be bothered with him."
"Hehe, hehe," Yang Chuxia laughed awkwardly, "Young Master Mu, please bear with him. He hasn’t been sleeping well lately."
"Bah... I think he’s just an old cucumber, deserving a slap!" Mu Shaoling said angrily.
"Calm down, Young Master Mu, pay attention to your image as a divine doctor. It’s best not to learn a woman’s way of speaking." Yang Chuxia tactfully reminded, as it’s mostly women who would make a spitting sound.
Upon being reminded by Yang Chuxia, Mu Shaoling finally understood what was wrong with what he had just said.
Annoyed, he sat back down and said, "He’s really getting on my nerves."
"Tsk tsk, if you’re not strong-willed enough, don’t blame others." Ye Zi’an glanced at him disdainfully.
This glance almost made Mu Shaoling jump again, but he remembered Zi’an’s words about willpower and remained seated.
After taking a few deep breaths, he finally spoke normally with Yang Chuxia.
"I remember your family used to have a Chinese aconite, is that correct?"
Yang Chuxia nodded, "Yes, it’s true."
"Sure, I’ll get it for you later. But what do you need it for?"
Mu Shaoling hesitated for a moment, then replied, "To treat Linhao’s eyes."
"Okay, when will he start the treatment?" Yang Chuxia and Ye Zi’an were both concerned about this matter. They couldn’t let that cute and mischievous child remain blind for the rest of his life. He deserved to live a flamboyant life.
Ye Zi’an turned to her and said, "Please take good care of Linhao during that time."
"Don’t worry." Yang Chuxia would be going to Capital City in a few days, hence the conversation.
Mu Shaoling pouted upon hearing this, just in time to be caught by Ye Zi’an, who coldly humphed, "What do you want to say? Lucky that the Chinese aconite is not for your use, or else I’d charge you for it."
The gaping mouths belonged not only to Mu Shaoling, but also to Yang Chuxia.
Mu Shaoling pointed at him and trembled for a while, then left without saying a word.
After he left, Yang Chuxia looked at Brother An, "Why were you so antagonistic towards him?"
"People who covet my wife, I’m already being polite by not kicking them out of my house." Ye Zi’an coldly humphed.
Yang Chuxia wanted to say, but you still let him help you, isn’t that like kicking down the ladder after crossing the river?
As if he knew what she was thinking, Ye Zi’an said, "He used to be less obvious about it, but now he’s blatantly coveting you."
Yang Chuxia didn’t know what to say anymore, a jealous man really left her speechless.
