If Qi Yue knew that her future had been clearly arranged by Madam Hu, she would definitely send her a dose of Great Tonic Pill.

Qu Wei soon said he would think of a way and asked her to wait for the news.

She thought if Qu Wei had no solution, she was ready to take extreme measures, since no one had ever made her do something against her will.

To hell with the Prefectural Magistrate!

While she was thinking, the sound of unfamiliar and hurried footsteps rang out in the courtyard again.

She guessed it was Hu Keqing.

He stood up.

This young man was quite good, after all.

Tall and upright, his energy was tiger-like from years of military life.

But at this moment, his excitement at standing up brought an abnormal flush to his face.

By the time she looked at him, he had already approached her closely.

“Doctor Qi, I’m standing up; you see I’m walking quite well, right?”

“Very well, you’re recovering faster than I expected,” Qi Yue glanced at his knees, deliberately avoiding his burning gaze.

She had no intention of inviting him to sit down and talk, her face always cold.

“Young Master Hu, now that your injury has healed, is it time to let my master and me leave?”

“I…” Hu Keqing hesitated, then a spark suddenly lit up in his eyes, “My father wants to invite you to the camp to be a military doctor, so you won’t have to go back to Northern Ridge anymore. And I’ll also be in the camp… don’t worry, we don’t have to go to the camp, we can stay here in the residence… Father said you’re used to being busy, afraid you won’t be able to idle…”

Listening to Hu Keqing’s off-topic and scrambled words, Qi Yue felt a bad premonition welling up inside her.

“Yueyue, I want to call you that. Now that I’m not a patient, I can call you that…”

Hu Keqing said, stepping quickly towards Qi Yue, and in a blink, he was right in front of her.

“Yueyue, I want to tell you that I like you, I liked you the first time I saw you in the valley… I want to marry you…”

“Yueyue, stay with me, don’t go, I want to be with you…”

Poor Qi Yue, who had been a person for two lifetimes, had never encountered such a forceful confession from a man, and for a moment she did not know how to react.

Just as she was in shock, suddenly a pair of strong arms grabbed her, and a strong male hormone scent hit her nose. Without thinking, Qi Yue pushed Hu Keqing away.

“Ah.”

Hu Keqing’s scream attracted the maids and servants outside the yard.

Some of them, in a flurry, helped Hu Keqing up from the ground, while others had already run to report to Hu Chengxuan and Madam Hu.

“Doctor Qi pushed the young master! Doctor Qi pushed the young master!”

In an instant, the news of Qi Yue pushing Hu Keqing over spread throughout the Hu Residence.

Hu Chengxuan, who had just finished his public duties, rushed over as soon as he heard.

Qi Yue, recovering from her astonishment, realized what she had done.

She had thrown Hu Keqing eight meters away.

Fortunately, she had always known her own strength and had instinctively held back, not using her full force.

And with Hu Keqing’s robust body, it was lucky he wasn’t hurt.

By the time Hu Chengxuan and Madam Hu hurried over, Hu Keqing had already been helped to sit on the side.

“Qingqing, how are you? Are you hurt?”

Madam Hu asked her son with concern, while Hu Chengxuan’s face had turned as dark as the bottom of a pot.

Huang Zai’an had already arrived early and taken Hu Keqing’s pulse.

“Prefectural Magistrate, Madam Hu, the young master is not in serious trouble, and his leg wound is also fine, he just needs to rest a while…”

“You make it sound so nice, but it’s my son who’s been injured. Old Huang, are you favoring your disciple like this?”

Madam Hu angrily waved her handkerchief, her usual grace and luxury vanishing in an instant.

“Husband, this woman dared to push our son, you must teach her a lesson, let her know her place!”

Hu Chengxuan glowered at Qi Yue with a gloomy face.

She was a little thinner than when he had first seen her, her figure even more slender and delicate, carrying an added hint of enchantment.

Regrettably, her face was just so delicate, but if that were all, it would be nothing unusual—he, the Prefectural Magistrate, had seen his share of beauties.

What was rare was the imposing aura in her eyes and eyebrows, coupled with a pair of willow-shaped eyes that seemed to contain a faint sea of stars; truly, they made one abandon worldly thoughts and evoke a sense of rarity in this world.

No wonder his son fell for her at first sight.

He guessed that his son must have done something impulsive, which led to his being cast aside.

This woman’s strength he had already experienced firsthand.

He actually did not blame his son’s actions; if there was any blame, it could only be placed on this woman for not knowing how to appreciate them.

“Physician Qi, you have injured my son, how do you intend to apologize? My newly completed Water Prison at the Prefecture Magistrate’s Office would be glad to host you.”

As soon as he finished speaking, all eyes fell on Qi Yue.

Quite a few fancily dressed maids tossed her mocking, schadenfreude-filled smiles.

In their eyes, being favored by the Prefectural Magistrate’s son was an honor of the highest order; Qi Yue actually dared to be unappreciative.

Being unappreciative was one thing, but she even dared to engage in a dalliance with the young master! She deserved to suffer in the Water Prison!

“Husband, I think that’s a good idea, lock her up so she can suffer properly,” Mrs. Hu excitedly chimed in with her high-pitched voice.

Huang Zai’an was already panicking; he stepped forward and blocked in front of Qi Yue.

“Prefectural Magistrate, when you first requested my presence to treat your son’s illness, the conversation did not go like this! If you want to seize my apprentice, that’s simply impossible.”

Qi Yue did not expect her nominal master to actually come forward to protect her, which was indeed rare.

Of course, this was of no use.

She snorted softly, pushing Huang Zai’an aside.

“Master, you always act in haste. The Prefectural Magistrate cannot seize me.”

She took a step forward with an expressionless face and said, “In the Beiyuan Kingdom, we have always governed through the rule of law, not to mention that the Prefectural Magistrate presides over Longnan Ridge—if he doesn’t abide by the law, I doubt the Emperor would feel secure entrusting this place to your care, right?”

“So, I’d like to ask, Prefectural Magistrate, what crime have I committed that I should be thrown into the Water Prison?”

“You…” Hu Chengxuan’s eyes widened in fury, unable to believe that the petite physician could speak such words.

Qi Yue disregarded his embarrassed countenance and continued her confident speech.

“Is it because I am a mere physician? Or is it because I risked my life to retrieve that accursed medicine that healed your son’s leg? Or perhaps it’s because I refused your son’s confession of love?”

“Which law of the Beiyuan Kingdom states this? If the Prefectural Magistrate can point it out, I’ll head to the Water Prison myself!”

“Good, what a heroic woman! Such audacity!”

An unexpected cry of praise shocked everyone present.

What auspicious day was it today for so many to dare challenge the Hu Family!

Discontentedly, Hu Chengxuan turned his head and saw the newcomer, his brow furrowed, but he still greeted the man.

“The arrival of the Prefectural Governor here is quite the honor, though there’s no need to visit the backyard of my humble abode, Hu!”

“Chengxuan, I was in a rush and had no choice but to enter Brother Hu’s backyard, truly sorry for the intrusion!”

Chu Yuntian smiled apologetically, his eyes quickly glancing over Qi Yue.

“What pressing matter brings you to my backyard?”

Hu Chengxuan looked askance at him, not putting the Prefectural Governor in his eyes at all.

In terms of official rank, Chu Yuntian was indeed the head of Longnan County, managing the entire area, but that ‘entire’ did not include Hu Chengxuan himself.

With 150,000 Longnan Army soldiers under him, what did the Prefectural Governor have? These lowly citizens of Longnan County?

If enemies attacked, wouldn’t they still need him to protect the entire population of Longnan County?

Chu Yuntian ignored the slight, maintaining his good-natured smile.

“Chengxuan, it’s like this, I heard that a Divine Doctor arrived at your residence, and with a single attempt, cured Qingqing’s leg—now he’s even standing up.

I came, firstly to congratulate you, and secondly, I wish to invite this Divine Doctor to my residence to treat my ailing mother.”

“Chengxuan, as you know, my mother has been seriously ill for years, and her condition worsens daily; as her son, I am truly anxious.”
