The apprentice returned and saw too many people seeking medical help in front of Divine Doctor Lin. He temporarily put aside the letter, intending to give it to him later that night. He resentfully looked towards Lan Yan.
Lan Yan noticed nothing and continued to arrange the queue, handing prescriptions to patients. She worked one by one without wasting any time.
Divine Doctor Lin nodded in satisfaction upon seeing this. This young girl was indeed remarkable. He wondered what relationship the Snake Clan person had with her.
Noticing the change in Divine Doctor Lin's expression, Lan Yan worked even harder. She felt her hope was within reach.
Not far away, Jun Yelan watched as patients left one by one while Lan Yan remained in her spot, his eyes filled with complex emotions. He didn't leave either, waiting patiently.
As evening fell, Divine Doctor Lin packed up.
Lan Yan also returned. The moment she entered the room, she sprawled carelessly onto the bed and called out, "Chun Tao, get me a towel." After speaking, she closed her eyes.
Working for a whole day was truly exhausting.
Jun Yelan, at the doorway, met Chun Tao and said, "I'll do it." He carried the basin of water and tiptoed to the bedside. Seeing that Lan Yan had already fallen asleep, he wet the towel.
He gently wiped Lan Yan's cheeks. Seeing her sleeping so soundly, a sharp pain pierced his heart. After wiping Lan Yan's hands, he pulled the blanket up and then sat by the bed.
He had observed all day and knew that person was Divine Doctor Lin. Lan Yan's actions were to fulfill the promise she had made to him then. His heart skipped a beat again as he murmured, "Why are you so good to me?" Kuaishuge
If this continued, he would develop many more thoughts and would be unwilling to let Lan Yan go.
The person on the bed did not respond, having drifted off to sleep and dreaming of delicacies.
Meanwhile, at a temple outside the city, Divine Doctor Lin received the letter from his apprentice and carefully read its contents.
He immediately became furious and exclaimed, "This Snake Clan person is actually so bloodthirsty, and that young girl is inherently violent. It truly infuriates me!"
The apprentice chuckled smugly, "Master, these two are still in a master-servant relationship, what true affection can there be? I think you should just send her away tomorrow."
Divine Doctor Lin fell into hesitation. After spending the day together, he felt that Lan Yan was not that kind of person. Moreover, if it were all pretense, there would be no need for her to work in front of him.
"Tell her tomorrow to go back." After what happened before, he truly did not want any further association with the Snake Clan.
The apprentice immediately smiled and said, "Yes, Master."
The next morning, Lan Yan went to Divine Doctor Lin's as usual. She held a steamed bun in her left hand and a fried dough stick in her right, strolling leisurely down the street.
Suddenly, a sound came from behind her. She turned her head and saw a bullock cart, far behind her, had overturned. Bags of goods fell from it, blocking the road.
However, many people had already stepped forward to help. Seeing that there was no issue, she continued walking, not noticing Jun Yelan, who was near the bullock cart.
Lan Yan arrived at Divine Doctor Lin's residence and found the door tightly shut. She called out, "Divine Doctor Lin?"
This time, the apprentice opened the door, standing triumphantly on the steps. "Miss Lan, my master is unwilling to see you today. To tell you the truth, his relatives died because of the Snake Clan people, and he will never help you."
Lan Yan was startled and looked behind the apprentice, but did not see Divine Doctor Lin. However, she knew Divine Doctor Lin was definitely inside. She called out, "Divine Doctor Lin, my Snake Clan person is called Jun Yelan, and he is very important to me. I beg you to help him."
There was no response from inside, and the apprentice kept urging her to leave from the doorway.
Lan Yan looked coldly at the apprentice and said, "If I don't see Divine Doctor Lin today, I won't leave."
"As you wish." The apprentice went inside and said to Divine Doctor Lin, "I have never seen such an unreasonable person."
Divine Doctor Lin waved his hand, "Forget it. After a while, she'll leave on her own." He glanced at the doorway and continued preparing medicine.
Only Lan Yan remained at the doorway. She knew Divine Doctor Lin harbored hatred towards the Snake Clan and wouldn't help her easily, but she had no other options. She touched her knee, thankful she had worn thick knee pads today.
After the examination, she directly knelt on the ground, adopting a pitiful demeanor. "Divine Doctor Lin."
The first to see her was the apprentice, who cast a disdainful glance and did not inform Divine Doctor Lin.
Seeing that Divine Doctor Lin did not come out, Lan Yan continued in the same manner. She took out the uneaten snacks from her懷 and slowly nibbled on them.
Even the system in her mind admired her resilience.
The sun in the sky had reached its zenith, scorching the earth.
Lan Yan took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from her forehead. She looked at the still-closed door and muttered, "Why hasn't Divine Doctor Lin come out yet?"
She hadn't brought any water and couldn't leave arbitrarily. She massaged her legs, which were aching from being compressed, and her head felt dizzy. It was bad; she was about to suffer from heatstroke.
"Heatstroke?" A smile touched her lips. This was a good idea. She then deliberately fell to the ground. If no one came soon, she would really pass out.
"Lan Yan!" Jun Yelan rushed over and saw this scene. He picked up the person on the ground with concern and walked towards the shady trees below, his eyes filled with heartache.
He clenched his fist, realizing this was all because of him.
Lan Yan heard Jun Yelan's voice and wondered why he was here. Should she pretend to be awake or still unconscious?
Jun Yelan gently laid Lan Yan down and went to fetch water, delicately feeding it to her. Seeing that Lan Yan's complexion had returned to normal, he breathed a sigh of relief. When he turned to look at the doorway, his eyes were filled with ferocity.
He said, "I will avenge you."
He walked to the doorway and, looking at Divine Doctor Lin and the others who had come out due to the commotion, he sneered, "Divine Doctor Lin, you truly do not deserve those two words."
Divine Doctor Lin looked at Jun Yelan's exquisite beauty and then at the unconscious Lan Yan, guessing that he was the Snake Clan person. He asked, "What happened here?"
"Divine Doctor Lin, you should know what he said to her," Jun Yelan's voice was as cold as ice, and he stared indifferently at Divine Doctor Lin. "She knelt here for several hours and fainted."
It was all his fault for being held up by the bullock cart and not arriving in time!
Divine Doctor Lin's pupils widened in shock, and he looked at the apprentice beside him, furious, "Why didn't you tell me?"
The apprentice shivered all over and stammered, "I, I didn't know either. I thought she was just kneeling casually, I never expected her to keep kneeling."
But he was also somewhat startled and even more afraid to tell Divine Doctor Lin.
"Just casually kneeling!" A trace of anger flashed in Jun Yelan's eyes. He stepped forward and grabbed the apprentice's arm, forcing his knees to the ground. He drew out a fine thread and placed it on the apprentice's neck, saying coldly, "You try it too."
The apprentice felt pain in his knees. Terrified, he dared not look at the thread and swallowed, saying, "I was wrong, I truly didn't do it on purpose."
But Jun Yelan showed no intention of stopping, continuing to press the apprentice down to his knees. The thought of Lan Yan's appearance just moments ago made the veins on the back of his hand bulge.
At that moment, a hint of fear arose in his heart; he did not want to lose this person who was the only one who treated him well.
