Insanely Pampered Wife: Divine Doctor Fifth Young Miss Novel - Chapter 884
Chapter 884: Junior Brother, I have returned…
Sima You Yue got Shi Qian Zhi to go outside before she carried Shi Qiu Shuang out from the metal bucket.
Fresh and clean covers covered the bed as she placed Shi Qiu Shuang on it. She looked to be extremely small.
Sima You Yue took out some of Little Seven’s clothes and let her put it on. She was soft and weak, without a bit of strength. Sima You Yue had to help her put on her clothes.
Nobody had ever treated her like this since before she was born, causing her cold and expressionless face to blush red.
“These are Little Seven’s clothes. They’re a little small on you, but they’ll do for now. Let your senior brother buy a few sets for you on your way back.” Sima You Yue said as she finished dressing her. “It will be expected for you to feel a little out of sorts. After all, you’ll take a while to get used to the newly grown flesh. You’ll be fine in a few days.”
“Mm.”
“Also, it’ll be a little special for you during this period of time. Although your body is weak, it’s still as good a time as any for you to cultivate. It will be painful after the medicinal bath, but it will lay a good foundation for you. If you can withstand it, you can try.” Sima You Yue said.
“I got it.” Shi Qiu Shuang said.
Her throat was better now, and her voice was not as raspy as it was before. It was even a little low.
“Your senior brother is a poison master and should know how to prepare it for you. You just have to get him to brew some recovery medication.” Sima You Yue said.
“Could you help me make it?” Shi Qiu Shuang asked.
“What’s wrong?”
“After all, Senior Brother is a guy. I’m weak now, so when the time comes…”
“You could find a servant girl?”
“I am not used to others being by my side. I’ve never used a servant girl before.” Shi Qiu Shuang said.
There were some who truly did not like that. She didn’t find it strange at all.
“Alright then. I can help you.” Sima You Yue siad, “It just happens that the sect’s competition is ending soon so I have the time. Once it’s over, I won’t be able to help anymore.”
“Why?”
“I have things i need to do and will leave this place.” Sima You Yue said, “But do not worry, you will definitely be fine by then. You might even depart before I do.”
“Thank you, You Yue. May I call you You Yue?”
“Of course. Aren’t names given for calling?” Sima You Yue didn’t mind.
Shi Qiu Shuang smiled, saying, “You may call me Qiu Shuang.”
“Qiu Shuang.” Sima You Yue was ready to accept her good intentions and called out.
‘You Yue, I got it. You have used a lot of expensive ingredients while curing me. I will get the sect to compensate you properly.” Shi Qiu Shuang said.
Although she was touched, Sima You Yue still said truthfully, “I have an arrangement with your sect.”
“I know about that arrangement.” Shi Qiu Shuang glanced at Little Seven, “Although the Eye of the Earth is valuable, since we have already agreed on that, we will not go back on our word. Do not just look at us as a group of hired assassins. We are still mora.”
“There are exceptions.” Sima You Yue said.
“When a sect grows large, there will definitely be worms.” Shi Qiu Shuang did not deny, “But only the few at the top know about Little Seven. We are still able to limit that.”
“I will trust you for the time being.” Sima You Yue said.
“As for the compensation, I will not speak of it for the time being. You will know when the time comes.” Shi Qiu Shuang did not take offense as she said, “Also, we have something we still need your help with.”
“How can I help you?” Sima You Yue blinked.
“I’m guessing that you should know of a very good prescription for a medicinal bath?”
Sima You Yue raised her eyebrows. She didn’t speak, waiting for her to continue.
“I hope for you to compete against my senior brother before choosing the one with the best results.” Shi Qiu Shuang said, “I want to be stronger!”
“Your gaze is sharp and filled with hatred. You plan to seek revenge. For what happened in Devil Cave?” Sima You Yue said confidently.
Shi Qiu Shuang hesitated for a moment, but she nodded. However, she did not speak further.
For things that others did not want to speak about, she did not like to pry. As such, she did not continue to ask and continued discussing what they did before.
“Why do you feel like I have a prescription for a medicinal bath?”
“When speaking of it, you did not hesitate. That proves that you are familiar with it.” Shi Qiu Shuang said confidently, “You used so many good ingredients when treating me that I believe your medicinal bath should be excellent as well. That is your ability. If you are able to provide me with a better medicinal bath, I will be able to recover even better in the future.”
“I have to first take a look at your senior brother’s method for preparing the medicinal bath.” Sima You Yue said, “If his method is better than mine, you have no use for mine.”
“Alright.”
“Then I will invite him in.”
After Shi Qian Zhi entered and heard their discussion, he was put in a difficult spot at first. After all, they usually did not show this to outsiders.
“You don’t have to tell me the foundations of me. You just have to tell me what ingredients you will be using.” Sima You Yue understood his issue as she said.
Shi Qian Zhi was grateful for Sima You Yue’s understanding as he told her the ingredients he used without telling her the quantities he used or the sequence.
“How is it, Yue Yue, which of yours is better?”
Sima You Yue said to Shi Qian Zhi, “The ingredients you use are more or less similar to mine. We just defer in a few places. To reciprocate is etiquette, I will tell you my prescription today as well.”
Sima You Yue told him the ingredients in her own method as Shi Qian Zhi’s eyes shone.
“Your method is truly more peculiar than mine!” He said as he clapped his hands, “I’ll have to trouble you with Junior Sister’s medicinal bathe. I will prepare your ingredients well.”
“Alright. Then I will return again tomorrow.”
Sima You Yue replied quickly. It was best for them to be the ones preparing the ingredients. After all, they only knew the herbs that she would be using. Without knowing the process, it was useless.
If Shi Qian Zhi was really powerful enough to be able to research it based on the ingredients alone, there was nothing she could do anyway.
“Wait a minute.” Shi Qian Zhi called out after her, “I’ll send you off. Junior Sister, we will be back soon.”
The three of them left together and came to a house where Shi Qian Zhi said, “Could you tell me how you managed to find a cure for Junior Sister? I couldn’t find out after tens of years, but you did in just two.”
Sima You Yue glanced at him, saying, “Secret. I can’t tell you.”
“…”
Shi Qian Zhi was just giving it a try. He didn’t really think that she would tell him.
Sima You Yue smiled as she turned around to leave.
How did she discover it? Of course, she used her own blood. If it were not because she first used her blood and mixed it with Shi Qian Zhi’s blood, she would never have found the antidote.
However, there was no way she could tell this to somebody else.
Shi Qian Zhi sent her to the main entrance of Memory Restaurant. Sima You Yue held onto Little Seven, preparing to return, when a familiar silhouette appeared in front of her.
Brilliant and handsome, talented with limitless potential. He leaned casually against a big tree, and how many ladies were captivated by his presence?
When he saw her appear, he gave a light smile as his eyes still carried traces of unconcealable weariness.
He said, “Junior Brother, I have returned…”
