Chapter 10



Zhao Chuchu inched closer and whispered into Xie Heng’s ear, “I’m a doctor.”

Xie Heng blushed as he felt her hot breath under his skin.

“Isn’t it good? We each have a hold over each other. We should be able to cooperate well, Da Lang.” Zhao Chuchu smirked. It was fun to see Xie Heng looking so shy.

Although Xie Heng did not admit openly that he was pretending to be blind, a smart person like Zhao Chuchu knew when to stop probing.

She was not worried that Xie Heng would plot against her, although she did not know why he was pretending to be blind.

“Right now, our top priority is to suppress the plague. We’ll have to delay treating Junjun.”

“That’s true. We need to know what is most urgent on hand. Junjun’s illness can wait.”

Xie Heng did not ask Zhao Chuchu to start treatment on Xie Jun immediately.

As Zhao Chuchu’s prescription was proven to be effective, other than leaving the village, the guards allowed the villagers to move around freely.

Zhao Chuchu helped Xie Heng home. Xie Heng took out his pen, ink, and a piece of paper. He wrote a divorce letter for Zhao Chuchu as a sign of his sincerity.

“Your handwriting is very pretty.” Zhao Chuchu complimented him. Just when she was about to accept the divorce letter, she heard the thundering of hooves and it seemed to be approaching the village.

Startled, Zhao Chuchu immediately turned to walk out of the house. She had no time to take the divorce letter.

Xie Heng’s house was at the tip of Lengshui Village. One could get a bird’s eye view of the entrance of the village.

Zhao Chuchu saw hundreds of horsemen charging into Lengshui Village. Soon, they surrounded the area.

She frowned.

“Soldiers?” Xie Heng followed Zhao Chuchu out of the house. He turned to face her. “They must be here for you.”

“How do you know?” Zhao Chuchu turned to look back at him.

“Li Jiang didn’t come back.”

“It’s not necessarily bad news. I’ll go and have a look. You should stay home.”

“Don’t say anything that you ought not to say. Otherwise, they’ll burn you to death.” Xie Heng reminded her in a low voice.

Zhao Chuchu gave a dismissive wave of her hand and strode toward the entrance of the village.

“Where is Zhao Chuchu? Who is Zhao Chuchu?” the military officer asked gruffly.

“Off... officer, you’re looking... for Zhao... Chuchu? What’s the matter?” Madam Yang mustered all her courage to ask the military officer.

They were all stuck within the village grounds and were not allowed to leave the village. Madam Yang gloated secretly when she heard that soldiers were looking for Zhao Chuchu. She could not wait for Zhao Chuchu to get into trouble.

There were two military doctors among the soldiers.

With their mouths and noses covered, they went to every single villager to check their pulses, and they were struck dumb with amazement.

Zhao Chuchu soon appeared at the entrance of the village.

“My lord, I heard that you are looking for me?”

“Are you Zhao Chuchu?”

The military official eyed Zhao Chuchu with interest.

“Yes.”

“Take her away.”

The military officer waved his hand as he ordered his guards.

Zhao Chuchu instinctively took a step back. “My lord, what do you mean?”

“It’s not your place to ask me questions. Men, take her away.”

Madam Yang rejoiced to hear what the military officer said. She sneered, “Hahaha, the officer must have discovered that this b*tch had fooled them. He must be here to settle the score with her. The heavens have finally opened their eyes, this is...”

The military officer turned to give Madam Yang a stern look. She hastily stopped talking.

“Miss, would you please.” The soldiers were more amiable than the military officer.

Zhao Chuchu looked at the military officer. Although he looked fierce and stern, she felt that he did not look like an evil person.

“Okay, I’ll go with you.” Zhao Chuchu obediently agreed to leave with them.

There was a military camp nearby, and Li Jiang was part of the team.

Zhao Chuchu was led to the horse carriage. She was the only one inside the carriage. It seemed like they had come especially for her. The military officer’s hostile and curt tone had made everyone think that Zhao Chuchu was in trouble.

More than a hundred soldiers were at the village. Only around ten of them left with the military officer. The rest of the soldiers remained in Lengshui Village.

There was an uproar among the villagers.

“Zhao Chuchu is a jinx. She’s done us great harm. She’s also cheated all of us of two pieces of silver each.”

“This b*tch has caused a great calamity to fall upon us. She deserves to die.”

“Let’s make our way to the Xie family. We’ll find them to settle this score. We’ll force them to cough up the silver they stole from us!”
