Chapter 46: Ripping the Notice on the Street

“Little girl, you can’t take this notice.”

An old lady looked at her with pity. A fine young lady was going to lose her life for no reason.

Xia Muqing noticed that their expressions were surprisingly consistent and her interest was piqued. She asked, “Has no one ever removed this notice?”

Everyone’s expressions had already turned to pity.

From their voices, Xia Muqing finally understood the perverse terms of King Zhennan’s residence.

She felt that he was worthy of being the famous God of War. However, she wasn’t worried at all.

Before long, a group of soldiers arrived with murderous intent. One could tell that they had been to the battlefield before.

The leader looked at Xia Muqing and frowned, but he didn’t say a word.

He asked formally, “Are you the person who took the notice?”

Xia Muqing nodded.

That man gestured for her to enter.

At King Zhennan’s manor.

It could be a gut feeling, but the stone lions at the entrance of King Zhennan’s residence carried a murderous aura.

They entered the residence.

Xia Muqing was brought to a hall. The decor was simple and luxurious, revealing the distinguished status of the master.

After waiting for a while, a man in a wheelchair was pushed in.

Even if he could no longer walk, he still carried an imposing aura.

The moment he entered, the entire atmosphere froze. All the soldiers took a step back and bowed.

Their actions were uniformed. This was the respect that was carved into their bones they had for the man.

Xia Muqing looked up and her expression stiffened when she saw the familiar mask.

Wasn’t he the man whom she had stolen from when she first came to this world?

She was still wearing paint and makeup at that time, so he shouldn’t recognize her now.

With that in mind, she felt relieved.

Ye Qingxuan looked at Xia Muqing and suddenly sneered coldly.

It was as if a hunter had finally discovered a prey that had escaped.

An aloof voice sounded. “Are you the physician who wants to treat me?”

He emphasized the word ‘physician’.

Xia Muqing felt that something wasn’t right. She smiled and said, “Yes, but I still need to prepare some items.”

Ye Qingxuan glanced askew at her and asked, “What do you need?”

Xia Muqing quickly rattled off a list of items. After she finished, she didn’t even know what she had said.

Ye Qingxuan nodded along and instructed his men to prepare.

His eyes were filled with a glint that looked as though a cat was chasing a mouse.

Of course, Xia Muqing wasn’t really preparing to treat him. This man had evidently recognized her at first glance.

She took advantage of the fact that the surrounding soldiers had been transferred away and she slowly retreated.

She had just reached the door.

Ye Qingxuan opened his eyes slowly and drawled, “Where are you going, Physician Xia?”

Xia Muqing quickly replied, “I’ll go get my medical box. I think I left it at home.”

She let out a laugh and ran out quickly.

She had just praised herself when she was surrounded by soldiers, before she even reached the entrance of the residence.

She cursed silently at the number of soldiers in the manor.

The sound of a wheelchair rolling was heard and Xia Muqing didn’t dare to turn around.

Ye Qingxuan smiled and said, “Physician Xia, just tell me what you need. Why do you have to trouble yourself?”

The more polite he was, the more uneasy Xia Muqing felt.

Swallowing hard, she could only nod her head in resignation.

Before long, the men had gathered the items that Xia Muqing had requested.

“Come here.”

Ye Qingxuan’s command made Xia Muqing feel as if she was sending herself to death.

Swallowing hard, she said, “There’s no need.”

He raised his eyebrows and said, “Physician Xia, aren’t you going to treat me? But how do you treat me if you don’t come to me?”

He added, “Or do you want to say something else to me, Miss Xia?”

Xia Muqing quickly said, “Let’s start the treatment.”

Knowing that she absolutely couldn’t bring up that matter, she marched to Ye Qingxuan with a stiff expression and took his pulse.

Ye Qingxuan snorted softly and didn’t reject her.

However, the coldness in his eyes made Xia Muqing subconsciously tense up.
