Suddenly, Yi Qing thought that Bai Cai was quite innocent.
Wu Min followed Lu Tianxun to a place far away from Yi Qing. She didn't stop until she was sure Yi Qing couldn't hear their conversation.
"What are you doing here?" Lu Tianxun looked at Wu Min.
"This is my territory. I can go wherever I want." Wu Min said carelessly.
"I won't tell anyone about what happened yesterday. And you'd better not show up here again."
"Actually, you're just afraid that Yi Qing will find out, aren't you?" Wu Min suddenly realized. "You seem so upright, but you also have things to hide from her?"
Looking at Wu Min's provocative look, Lu Tianxun asked, "What on earth do you want?"
"Nothing." Wu Min herself didn't know what she wanted.
Maybe it was because there were so many outsiders in Wu Gorge for the first time that she couldn't adapt. She couldn't help thinking about these people, so she came to take a look out of boredom.
Lu Tianxun was a bit speechless. "I like Yi Qing, but I have no intention of changing her at all. As for not telling her about my own affairs, it's just because she didn't ask."
"You're so hypocritical." Wu Min turned around and left.
Lu Tianxun had no idea how he was being hypocritical. It was Wu Min who didn't let him tell others, but now he was the one being labeled as hypocritical?
When Wu Min came back, Yi Qing was just pouring the medicine. "Since you're here, drink it while it's still hot."
Wu Min turned her head and looked at Lu Tianxun who had followed her back. "You taste it first."
"It's too hot." Lu Tianxun thought Wu Min was just being deliberately difficult.
"Figure it out." Wu Min stared at Lu Tianxun.
Lu Tianxun had no choice but to go over and pour the medicine from the medicine pot into a wide - mouthed sea bowl. He blew on it and took a sip. It was still too hot, so he blew on it carefully again.
Yi Qing simply stopped looking and turned around to check another medicine pot.
Wu Min watched Lu Tianxun carefully blowing on the medicine and couldn't help getting distracted.
"It's okay now." Lu Tianxun tested the temperature.
Without testing it herself, Wu Min directly drank it. "Cough, cough, cough..." She spat it out right after drinking. The heat made her tongue hurt. "It's so hot!"
She gritted her teeth, curled her tongue to endure the pain, and pretended to be very cold - hearted.
"I clearly..." Lu Tianxun thought Wu Min was just looking for trouble.
"You're used to eating cold things, so you can't handle hot ones." Yi Qing gave Wu Min a wax apple. "There's still some in the medicine pot. You can wait a bit more."
Wu Min lowered her head and took a bite of the wax apple, which finally relieved the pain on her tongue. "Why isn't it hot for me usually?"
"Your medicine is boiled earlier. Every time it's sent over, it's a bit cooler than that person's, so you don't feel it's hot." Yi Qing explained.
Lu Tianxun also realized that every time he drank the medicine, he thought it was a bit cool. He thought it cooled down too fast, but he never thought that Yi Qing did it on purpose.
Wu Min sized Yi Qing up. "You're quite considerate."
Yi Qing didn't intend to curry favor with Wu Min. "Then wait a while more." She ignored Wu Min.
Wu Min felt that her body had improved a lot. She thought that combining medical skills and Gu skills might produce unexpected results.
When Wu Min's medicine cooled down, she sat there looking at Lu Tianxun.
Lu Tianxun didn't want to pay attention to Wu Min. "I've already tasted this medicine."
"The one in the bowl hasn't been tasted." Wu Min said as if it were a matter of course.
"What? Are you afraid there's poison in this bowl?" Lu Tianxun was a bit out of control of his temper today.
"Maybe."
Lu Tianxun had a very good temper, but he couldn't hold it back today.
"Cough, cough..." Yi Qing reminded him.
Lu Tianxun glanced at Yi Qing, picked up Wu Min's bowl and took a sip. "Is it okay now?"
Only then did Wu Min pick up the medicine bowl satisfactorily and drink the medicine.
Yi Qing and Gan Ermei watched and snickered. They would never believe that there was nothing going on between Lu Tianxun and Wu Min.
"Okay, my medicine is ready too. Let's go." Yi Qing picked up the box.
"You come too." Wu Min pointed at Lu Tianxun.
"He has to stay here and watch the medicinal materials I'm processing." Yi Qing said in a hurry.
Lu Tianxun was just about to find an excuse not to go. He was a bit surprised when he heard what Yi Qing said.
"Aren't there still her?" Wu Min glanced at Gan Ermei on one side.
"I..." Gan Ermei pointed at herself. "I have to go chop firewood." She picked up her machete and left.
Wu Min glanced at Lu Tianxun. "Then let's go."
Yi Qing let out a sigh of relief. Looking at how they were today, if Wu Min were to take Lu Tianxun to see Xiao Jinghan, the matter would be exposed.
Wu Min didn't know what she was thinking. She didn't notice Yi Qing's abnormality. The two of them went straight to the forbidden area.
Wu Min almost made a mistake when collecting the life - extending Gu.
"Be careful." Yi Qing unconsciously spoke with anger.
Wu Min stared at Yi Qing.
"I've made so much effort. Don't let all my hard work go to waste." Yi Qing taunted.
Only then did Wu Min take back her gaze. "Don't worry. He won't die."
"I saw you being so careful with him before. Why are you suddenly not so concerned?" Yi Qing quickly fed the medicine to Xiao Jinghan. Xiao Jinghan's condition was such that the life - extending Gu could be removed in two days. This life - extending Gu really had an impact on the efficacy of the medicine, but fortunately, it was still within Yi Qing's control.
After seeing Yi Qing feed the medicine and put away the life - extending Gu properly, Wu Min then asked, "According to the customs of the Great Jin Dynasty, a married woman should stay at home, take care of her husband and children, and never go out. You're already married. Why can you still practice medicine outside?"
"It depends on who you marry." Yi Qing packed up her things. "If you marry someone who understands and supports you, you can naturally continue to do what you like after marriage without any worries."
Wu Min was skeptical of Yi Qing's view. "You were probably kicked out of your family, right? You're just saying this to save face."
"Do I look like it?" Yi Qing spread her hands.
"Then you don't like your husband."
Hearing what Wu Min said, Yi Qing smiled. "We're not familiar enough to talk about these things."
Wu Min stared at Yi Qing and watched her leave the forbidden area first. She walked behind Yi Qing, still a bit unwilling. "Do you know that Lu Tianxun likes you?"
"Yes, I do."
"But you're already married."
"He knows that too, and I've already told him that I won't like him."
"Then why do you still let him follow you and make him think he has a chance?"
"I've made it very clear to him. He still chooses to follow me, and I can't drive him away." Yi Qing turned around and looked at Wu Min. "These things have nothing to do with you, right?"
This time, Wu Min finally stopped asking.
But Yi Qing knew very well that Wu Min had developed feelings for Lu Tianxun, which was why she behaved like this.
Lu Tianxun was good - looking and a real person. He walked in front of Wu Min twice a day. He could be cold and aloof or elegant and refined. Not only an inexperienced girl like Wu Min, but even a woman who had traveled through a vast forest would be attracted to Lu Tianxun.
When Yi Qing returned to her residence, Lu Tianxun rushed to greet her.
"Did she make things difficult for you?" Lu Tianxun looked at Yi Qing worriedly.
"How could she make things difficult for me? Why do you ask?" Yi Qing looked at Lu Tianxun with great interest.
