Chapter 837 Recovery from Illness
Chapter 837 Recovery from Illness
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief as they watched Li Hai leave.
"Miss, are you ready yet?" Xiao Nong asked anxiously from outside the door.
Although the sound was soft, it almost scared Lin Ping into developing some kind of illness.
Xiao Nong was the only one who knew that Jiang Hongling was pregnant, and she could roughly guess what the two of them were doing.
But the situation just now was too dangerous, and no one could say what would happen next, so she had to call a halt in advance.
"I feel like I'm being watched..." Lin Ping was already losing interest, and now he simply wanted to give up.
Jiang Hongling knew that Xiao Nong was always calm and composed, and something bad must have happened outside. She hurriedly transferred the remaining energy into Lin Ping's body before signaling Lin Ping to stop.
"I won't allow you to fall in love with anyone else this year," Lin Ping said seriously.
He knew this would be his last conversation with Jiang Hongling, and he had to make the most of the opportunity.
"Let alone a year, Hongling will never like anyone else again in her entire life," Jiang Hongling replied with a straight expression.
She was a sentimental woman to begin with, and then she met Lin Ping, a heartthrob among young girls. She was too busy liking him to have any interest in liking anyone else.
"Will you fall in love with someone else this year?" Jiang Hongling asked in return.
Lin Ping panicked. He had never intended to like anyone else, but plans can't keep up with changes. Meng Qingge was a perfect example. Who knew that Lin Hao, that troublemaker, hadn't arranged any other marriages for him yet?
He nodded repeatedly, like a chicken pecking at rice, and said with absolute certainty, "Absolutely not!"
As he said this, he ruled out Jiang Yunying, Xia Linglong, Zhou Xiyin, Meng Qingge, and finally added Guo Zhixi.
In other words, he will not like anyone else besides these people.
"Hongling, don't worry, I will definitely come to pick you and your daughter up in a year!" Lin Ping said earnestly.
"Mother and daughter? Why not mother and son?" Jiang Hongling asked in confusion.
Deeply influenced by feudal ideology, she longed to have a son.
"Of course it's a daughter. You're so beautiful, wouldn't it be a waste of your genes if you didn't have a daughter?" Lin Ping said seriously. Of course, he wouldn't tell Jiang Hongling that he had already used an X-ray to determine the sex of the fetus.
Jiang Hongling didn't want to delve into this matter; she simply wanted to tell Lin Ping one fact: "You can only take the child away; I must remain in Chiyang Pavilion!"
"Why? Can you bear to see a child born without a mother? Can you bear to see me get married without a wife?" Lin Ping asked excitedly.
Jiang Hongling rolled her eyes at him. "Are you still looking for a wife?"
Lin Ping usually wouldn't dare answer this soul-searching question, but he still shamelessly said, "A thousand wives have a thousand kinds of charm, but I just can't live without you!"
Jiang Hongling was deeply helpless that Lin Ping could speak such shameless words in a way that made them sound so refined.
“I will tell you the reason when the time is right,” Jiang Hongling said in a low voice.
She longed to be with Lin Ping, and she longed for a passionate, competitive relationship, but she couldn't control her fate.
Since she wouldn't say, Lin Ping didn't press further. Everything would have to wait until the martial arts tournament a year from now to find out.
"What's the rush? Can't you see I'm treating your young lady?"
After a while, Lin Ping straightened his clothes and swaggered out, but his legs felt a little weak, a sign of overexertion.
Xiao Nong rolled her eyes at him and walked straight into the room.
"Miss, Li Hai is back," Xiao Nong said softly.
"What? Li Hai is here? Where is he?" Lin Ping panicked immediately, wishing he could disappear into a crack in the wall.
"He was taken away by the dean; he almost went into your room just now," Xiao Nong said emphatically.
The more Lin Ping thought about it, the more frightened he became, and cold sweat kept pouring down his back.
"My senior brother always comes to my place after returning to the mountain, but why did Master take him away?" Jiang Hongling asked curiously.
She was more afraid of the dean finding out her secret than of Li Hai discovering it.
Taking Li Hai away for no reason is clearly an attempt to avoid embarrassing her, and they may have already discovered something.
"It was the dean invited by Du Yitong, and it seems he said some bad things about us," Xiao Nong explained.
“Little friend, watch your words. Those aren’t bad things, they’re the truth!” Lin Ping retorted.
He had already imagined everything that had just happened outside, and thinking of Jiang Mo's situation, he hurriedly ran outside.
"Black Dog, you're injured!" Lin Ping put Jiang Moping on the ground and immediately began to set his bones.
"You're loyal and compassionate; that's probably your greatest strength," Jiang Hongling said as she slowly walked out of the room, watching Lin Ping treat Jiang Mo's injuries.
She knew that Du Yitong was Li Hai's underling, but now it was the other party who reported Li Hai, which made her think of a whole story.
Therefore, even though Lin Ping was not very strong, Jiang Hongling still had high hopes for him.
"Senior Sister? You're cured?" Jiang Mo and Du Yitong both looked at Jiang Hongling as if they were looking up at a celestial being.
Jiang Hongling nodded: "Thank you for finding the miracle doctor for me."
"It's all thanks to Senior Brother Jiang. I only helped a little," Du Yitong stammered, not daring to look Jiang Hongling in the eye.
"Dr. Lin, how is my junior brother's injury? Will it leave any lasting damage?" Jiang Hongling asked worriedly, deliberately changing how she addressed Lin Ping.
Lin Ping shook his head: "Since I'm the one who took action, there won't be any lasting damage. However, the other party's attack was a bit too ruthless. Could it be that they have a deep-seated grudge against your junior brother?"
He clearly knew that Li Hai was behind it; his sarcastic tone was meant for others to hear.
According to Jiang Hongling, Li Hai will also participate in the martial arts tournament, and is likely to become her most powerful enemy.
Instead of thinking about how to defeat the enemy, it's better to use someone else to kill the enemy in advance. That's what Sister Bao did.
"Then thank you very much, Doctor." Jiang Hongling bowed slightly, looking at Lin Ping with soft eyes, as if saying goodbye.
Her alluring appearance captivated Lin Ping, who even forgot to treat Jiang Mo's injuries.
"Yitong, you will escort the divine doctor down the mountain later. Jiang Mo, you should take good care of your injuries during this time," Jiang Hongling instructed.
"Don't worry, Senior Sister, I will protect the Divine Doctor's safety," Du Yitong said, patting her chest as if she had received a royal decree.
"Where is Senior Sister going?" Jiang Mo saw through Jiang Hongling's thoughts and also saw Xiao Nong packing her luggage.
"I've accumulated too many tasks over the past few months, and it's time to sort them out. Please tell Master for me," Jiang Hongling explained. This was her excuse for leaving temporarily. As for where she was going, she didn't tell Lin Ping.
"Where is Miss Jiang going to carry out her mission?" Lin Ping couldn't help but ask.
"Yitong, give the divine doctor a proper explanation of the rules of Chiyang Pavilion." Jiang Hongling's voice turned somewhat cold as she led Xiao Nong away without looking back.
