213 Really Thought She Was Easy to Bully
“Shopkeeper Huang, in the past few days, apart from the patients, has anyone else come to see me?” Gu Qingxue asked.
“I don’t think so. Only a few people often come to me to ask when you’ll be here. After all, you are a skilled doctor, and many people come to ask about this.” Huang Rongfa saw that Gu Qingxue’s expression was not quite right, he asked in puzzlement, “But did I say something that I shouldn’t have? Why does your face look like that?”
“I don’t know what’s going on either. Today, I feel as if someone is hiding in the dark and watching me.” Gu Qingxue thought for a moment and was very sure that it was not her misperception just now.
Her senses were always sharp. She would not be able to detect the gazes of others for no reason.
Huang Rongfa immediately became nervous. “Are you sure, Lady Gu? Did you see what that person looked like?”
Gu Qingxue shook her head. “I didn’t see what that person looked like. However, since that person is targeting me, he will appear again. I’ll have to trouble Shopkeeper Huang to keep an eye on him for me.”
“Of course. Lady Gu’s matters are my matters. Don’t worry, Lady Gu. Many of my subordinates are martial artists. I’ll have them keep an eye on them. Once they discover suspicious people, they’ll immediately capture them and send them to Lady Gu for her punishment.” Shopkeeper Huang patted his chest in a righteous manner.
Gu Qingxue nodded and began her busy day.
The news of Gu Qingxue’s return to the clinic spread quickly. In less than an hour, there was a long line at the entrance of An Pharmacy.
As the number of patients increased, Gu Qingxue could clearly feel that one of the patients had been looking at her from a distance.
The gaze of this person was completely different from that of a normal patient. It was as if he was watching her.
Gu Qingxue felt the gaze of this person, and the corners of her lips curled up into a cold smile.
This person was really interesting. He was looking at her so brazenly. Did he really think that she was easy to bully?
Gu Xiaosan was dressed in coarse hemp clothes. He hid in the medical team and craned his neck to observe how Gu Qingxue took the pulse and prescribed the medicine.
Thinking that his concealment was flawless, Gu Xiaosan watched as Gu Qingxue called shopkeeper Huang over.
Gu Qingxue seemed to have said something to Shopkeeper Huang. He immediately nodded and disappeared.
Just as Gu Xiaosan was puzzled, he suddenly saw Gu Qingxue raise her eyes.
He saw Gu Qingxue looking at him coldly with a faint smile.
Gu Xiaosan’s heart tightened as if he was facing a great enemy. He took a step back and ran away without saying a word.
“Next.” Gu Qingxue did not care at all and continued to provide medical services calmly.
Four hours later, there was a break during lunchtime. Gu Qingxue got up and the maid, Lil’ Qi, walked up to her, she stuffed a soup into her hand. “Lady Gu, I’ve already caught him and asked him. Shopkeeper Huang asked if you would like to go over immediately.”
“Yes, let’s go and have a look.”Gu Qingxue followed Lil’ Qi to the back hall. After putting on a thick and warm cloak, they walked toward the backyard of An Pharmacy.
It was a cloudy day today, and the thick haze shrouded the sky. The cold wind was chilly, and it was like a knife cutting into one’s face.
Gu Qingxue came to the backyard and saw a man who had been stripped down to his underwear.
The man was tied to a pillar in the stable, shivering in the cold wind.
“Thank you for your hard work, Lady Gu.” Huang Rongfa saw Gu Qingxue and immediately greeted her with a smile.
Gu Qingxue smiled, not feeling afraid at all. “Shopkeeper Huang’s move saved a lot of effort.”
