Chapter 188: Unexpected Reactions

Chapter 188: Unexpected Reactions

Hua Jingya had thought that she would be greeted with shock and excitement from the doorman, and just like before, treat her with admiration and respect, calling her the divine doctor.

She didn’t expect him to flash her a mocking look instead. “Bah! Divine Doctor Hua? I think you’re talking sh*t, and you even want to meet our boss!” The man held up the baton in his hand. “My brother nearly died of a heart attack after soaking in your medicinal bath! If it wasn’t for Miss Gu, all of us would be dead because of you. Divine doctor my f*ckin a*s. See if I won’t beat the sh*t out of you today!”

This was a strong muscular man, and once he heard Hua Jingya’s words, his eyes had widened, his eyes rimmed red. He lifted the baton high in the air, and his muscles flexed. The stick looked like it was about to come down on her head in an instant.

Hua Jingya couldn’t help but take a step back in a hurry, looking at the man with disbelief on her face!

How was that possible!

She had been confident that these people were waiting to welcome her back, and then she would come up with another medicinal bath, getting even more admiration from the people, just the same as previously. But she didn’t expect to get this kind of reception. She was a divine doctor, and now she was being chased and beaten?

Getting out of that embarrassing situation with the gang, Hua Jingya’s eyes flashed dazedly, how could this problem have happened?

She had soaked in the medicinal bath herself, and there shouldn’t have been any mistakes with her method!

She gritted her teeth as she thought, walking to yet another gang. The southern side of the Imperial Capital was a mix of strong and weak, and there were also gangs from the slums. In the past, she didn’t think this place was worth her time at all, but now she had no choice but to come here.

However, what she didn’t understand was the moment they heard she was Hua Jingya, heard that she could make medicinal baths, not only did they not worship her, they even chased her out of the door!

She was the descendant of Hua Tuo, and she was being labeled as a liar?!

These fools who didn’t know how to appreciate such greatness in front of their eyes!

Especially while she was walking on the streets, she would hear the name ‘Miss Gu’ now and then. She slowly muttered the words under her breath, and that disgusting face floated into her mind. This was the person that she hated with her entire being at this moment!

Qingyun gang was no more, instead, the Bai gang had risen up in its place. Hua Jingya stood at the side of the road, slowly pondering over this. Should she go back?

There were people walking past her, but none of them recognized her, taking her to be just an insignificant passerby. Hua Jingya gritted her teeth again at this scene. When she was in the Bai and Qingyun gang, everyone treated her with respect and admiration!

Hua Jingya took a deep breath to calm herself, being that she had never been so neglected in her entire life before. She forcefully pushed down her anger, when a movement in front of her caught her eyes.

She lifted her head, and saw a figure slowly approaching her. She was walking against the direction of the light, and her skin was as white as jade, and even the vivid colored bird on her shoulder looked darker under the light.

“Miss Gu.”

“Miss Gu!”

“Miss Gu!”

The people beside her stopped in their tracks when they caught sight of Gu Xiqiao, and greeted her cheerfully.

Just by seeing the scene in front of you, you can tell how popular this person was!

Hua Jingya was shuffled to the edge, and she looked at the figure that was surrounded by the crowd in the distance. How could she not recognize that person, it was the person that she hated the most in this world, Gu Xiqiao!

“If you’re done gawking, then get out of my way!” A middle-aged man pushed Hua Jingya to the side. “Miss Gu, Miss Gu, can I please have your autograph…”

Being pushed to the side so abruptly, Hua Jingya almost lost her footing. But before she could see who it was that had pushed her, she was knocked into once again!

Finally she managed to straighten herself with much effort, but saw that Gu Xiqiao had disappeared. The people around the area were still chanting her name though. Hua Jingya grabbed a random person and asked, “Miss Gu? Just now, that person, Miss Gu, who is she?”

The lady that was grabbed suddenly was startled and confused, but she replied without missing a beat, the excitement clear in her eyes. “Miss Gu is the one that donated the money that she was awarded for her patent to the hospital here. You know the Bai gang? They recently started distributing medicine at the gates, and that was also prescribed by Miss Gu. She’s also the top ranker in the last national finals. My son really likes her, and has recently become very motivated…” Yada yada.

Hua Jingya couldn’t listen anymore, and she let go of her hand. Her lips were on the verge of bleeding with how hard she was biting down on it.

“Gu Xiqiao…” The words were repeated over and over, her eyes flashing with viciousness and jealousy that couldn’t be contained.

The phone in her pocket rang, and Hua Jingya took it out. The name ‘Rong Feishuang’ was displayed on the screen!

The distorted face that was filled with jealousy instantly morphed into a pleasant one, and she picked it up immediately, using a trembling voice to speak, “Divine Doctor Rong.”

“Miss Hua, I don’t know if you have time to diagnose someone with me, this person has a bit of a complicated identity.” Rong Feishuang was furrowing his brows tightly on the other side. Recently, he had been inspired by his disciple, suddenly seeing a new breakthrough in Baili Bin’s condition, and he was beyond excited about it.

Especially after meeting Hua Jingya, he knew that the Hua family had a secret acupuncture method that was not passed down to outsiders—Going against the pulse, break to stand.

If the two worked together, they might be able to cure Baili Bin!

Rong Feishuang still felt a pang of deep guilt towards both the father and son pair of Baili, because he didn’t manage to save them. Now that Baili Qu’s condition had improved, there were still no changes in Baili Bin’s condition. This made Rong Feishuang feel even worse, and the guilt ate at him, trying to find every means he could to treat Baili Bin.

Now that he finally managed to find a way, how could he give up?

Hearing Rong Feishuang’s words, Hua Jingya’s eyes lit up. At this moment, she couldn’t be bothered with Gu Xiqiao, she tried to calm her excitement so that her voice wouldn’t tremble too much. “Saving a life is more meritorious than building a seven-floor pagoda, how dare I ignore your request?”

“Thank you so much, Miss Hua! I’ve always heard that the Hua family are kind souls, and now it really seems to be well said!” Rong Feishuang was overjoyed. He had once heard that the Hua family’s acupuncture techniques would reduce one’s good fortune, but no matter whether or not it would be successful, he would compensate them well for their efforts.

He thought for a while more before saying, “I hope that you can keep it a secret, Miss Hua. I will send the address to your phone. We’ll talk more when we meet.”

Hua Jingya hung up the phone, a big smile on her face that she couldn’t hide.

The patient that Rong Feishuang was going to introduce, he had said that his identity was a bit complicated, so it definitely wasn’t some random commoner. Hua Jingya clenched her fist, so what if it was someone from the secular world, the ancient martial arts world was her goal!

After receiving the address, she left immediately.

“Beauty Qiao, I found Hua Jingya’s trail again.” The system spirit led the way in front of Gu Xiqiao, flying as it spoke.

Gu Xiqiao checked the time on her phone, and said, “I know.”

“… Oh.” The system spirit felt like its usefulness was really spiraling downwards, and it only really looked forward to upgrading itself. Hurry up and upgrade, work harder to upgrade!

Yao Jiamu had been waiting for Gu Xiqiao, and had been waiting half a day with no signs of her. Just when he thought she wasn’t going to turn up, he suddenly saw the familiar figure. “I thought you weren’t coming!”

“No way.” Gu Xiqiao showed him her phone screen, pointing at the numbers. “It’s just ten o’clock now, I’m on time, alright?”

Yao Jiamu: …

He would beat the person who made him rush over here in excitement at eight o’clock.

Because of Gu Xiqiao, he had slowly integrated his subordinates into the Bai gang. However, these were all people who had been trained personally by him, and each one of them was extremely strong. Even just a display of a little of what they could do had shocked Boss Bai, and he had given Yao Jiamu the newcomers to train.

He was unwilling at first, but after receiving the tattered book that Gu Xiqiao had given to Boss Bai, he immediately agreed.

“There’s actually women here?” Gu Xiqiao walked around with Yao Jiamu, and found that there were several women in the gang of nearly a hundred men. Wasn’t this a gang? How come they let women in?

Yao Jiamu smiled. “These people were all selected according to their talents. I’m teaching them everything from the book that you gave me, and if it’s effective I’ll retain them. Otherwise, I’ll send them to Boss Bai to receive other training.”

“No, wait. What did you come for today?” Yao Jiamu stuffed the book into her hands. He had finally managed to get her to come here today, it was in order to look at his great achievements, and at the same time to get some pointers from her.

The first book that she had given him at least had some comments and explanation in it, but this book was completely empty. “The book is a little bit too deep for me, I don’t understand a lot of things inside it!”

“You’re already pretty good to be able to finish that other book,” Gu Xiqiao raised her head as she said, her chi surging. “You’re already at Bone Refinement level, aren’t you?”

He didn’t expect her to be able to tell at a glance, and Yao Jiamu was taken aback. He scratched the back of his head, slightly bashful. “Yeah, I just advanced last night.”

He had wanted to give her a surprise, but she had seen through it herself.

Gu Xiqiao opened the book that Yao Jiamu had handed to her. With a flash of light on her fingertips, a pen and paper appeared suddenly. She spoke as she scribbled, “Get Xiao Yun and Xiao Wuzi to come here tomorrow, they haven’t been here for quite a while. They’ve been in the capital for about two months now, I believe they should have more or less handled the matters of theirs.”

With Xiao Yun being a regular person, even if she was with Tang Qingqiu, the Tang family wouldn’t look down on her.

From now on, she would put an end to these situations!

Yao Jiamu didn’t react to her words, he just stared at her fingers. They were white and slender, and seemed to glow under the sun, moving like a flowing river. He felt like he had frozen in that moment. Such slender fingertips, how did a pen and paper appear suddenly?

That was just too incredible!

“Young Master Yao,” A soft voice came suddenly from the side of his ear, and Yao Jiamu looked up to see a girl with short hair. She tilted her head to the side, looking at him with a smile on her face. “Is this young lady a newcomer?”

Gu Xiqiao didn’t raise her head, flipping through the book quickly as she continued to jot down things on the paper.

“No.” Yao Jiamu frowned slightly, shaking his head.

The girl wanted to say more, only to see Gu Xiqiao was done with the book. She shoved both book and paper into Yao Jiamu’s hands, and flashed the girl a smile. “Hello, my name is Gu Xiqiao.”

Gu Xiqiao’s head was lowered previously, so the girl couldn’t see her face. Now that she had straightened up, her snow-white skin glowed softly, and her face was as pretty as a picture. She suddenly felt like the sun that was above was incredibly dazzling, and she couldn’t help the stutter in her voice as she replied, “H-hello, my name is Lu Qi.”

“Have fun.” Gu Xiqiao snapped her fingers, and a streak of fiery red shot over immediately. “To be able to make it to this point, should be those who are trusted. Xiao Mutou, I’ll lend Xixi to you to play. It’ll come back by itself once night falls.”

Yao Jiamu instantly recalled the one night that his body had been beaten black and blue by Xixi, and felt his entire person shudder. This wasn’t lending them to play, this was obviously to beat them to the ground!

Xixi glanced at Gu Xiqiao with a dejected expression. “Chirp chirp chirp~” (Beauty Qiao, don’t leave me, I can’t bear it!)

Gu Xiqiao didn’t look back, and with a flick of her finger, a dark pill flew into Xixi’s beak.

Xixi swallowed it immediately and started squawking at Yao Jiamu. “Chirp chirp chirp chiiiiiiirp!” Actually, it loved beating people to the ground!

“Young Master Yao, that was…” Lu Qi watched as Gu Xiqiao left, and was only able to snap back to herself after the latter was gone completely. Then she looked towards Xixi, and she was dumbfounded.

Yao Jiamu glanced at her. “Didn’t you always want to know where the books come from, and how come I’m able to beat all your asses? Because she taught me.” But now it looks like he would be getting a beating from Xixi instead. What goes around comes around, he thought.

Lu Qi was rooted to her spot in astonishment, her jaw slacked. She only recovered after a minute, with an earth-shattering scream, “Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh! Then that was my idol just now!”

***

At this time, Hua Jingya had finally arrived at her destination, which was a residential area in the city center.

She took a deep breath before stepping inside, and was immediately stunned. A familiar figure appeared suddenly in front of her, lean and chilling. His back was to her, and she couldn’t see his face, but she still recognized him. It was that Mr. Jiang that had been beside Gu Xiqiao!
