Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 67

Chapter 067 Rong Jin’s Treatment
“Dong dong dong dong!” A clear knock sounded on the door. This voice was very urgent, which meant that the person knocking on the door was very impatient.

Chun Lan carried Yun Xiao on her back. Seeing that the courtyard door was still closed, she knocked hard on the door a few times. She turned to look at the woman on her back. She saw that she had lost too much blood and her face was as pale as paper. However, there was a faint trace of abnormal red on her face. Her expression was full of anxiety. “Miss, is this really this place?” How about this servant bring you to our pharmacy in Yun Clan? ”

Because of the injury, the long arrow had not been removed from Yun Xiao’s wrist. Previously, it had fallen into the water. After the cold wind blew, Yun Xiao felt cold again. Her body was extremely weak. Her expression had been tense all along the road, but she did not feel anything.

However, in the middle of the journey, it was unknown who poured water on the road. Yun Xiao accidentally fell, and a string in her tense heart was broken as a result. She lay on the ground and could not get up again.

Seeing Yun Xiao struggling, Chun Lan was anxious. She no longer ignored Yun Xiao’s orders and directly carried her on her back. Under Yun Xiao’s instructions, she arrived at this mansion.

After knocking on the door for a long time, no one answered. Her heart was even more impatient, and tears had already faintly appeared in her eyes.

Yun Xiao raised her head from behind Chun Lan. Although her body was now ice-cold, her eyes were still clear. “Wait a bit longer.”

It wasn’t that she couldn’t go to the Yun Clan’s pharmacy. It was just that she was afraid that the people who were chasing after her would have already stared at all the properties under the Yun Clan’s name, waiting for her to fall into her trap.

She managed to recover her life with great difficulty. How could she be so willing to hand over her life?

Just as Chun Lan was about to continue her persuasion, the courtyard door creaked open. A man in his fifties walked out of the courtyard door. He was wearing only a grey robe. “Who are you looking for?”

Yun Xiao raised her head from behind Chun Lan and said, “I’m looking for Rong Jin, can I trouble you to inform me?”

Other than the Yun Clan’s pharmacy, Yun Xiao did not dare to go to the other pharmacies. In the end, she only thought of Rong Jin’s body.

The man saw Yun Xiao’s face clearly and said respectfully, “Fourth Miss, come in.”

Yun Xiao was slightly surprised. She actually recognized her at a glance. Her calm appearance seemed to be waiting for her arrival.

Layers of doubts arose in her heart, but she couldn’t take care of them anymore. A wave of dizziness assaulted her, and Yun Xiao could only swallow the words that reached her mouth.

“Mother, what’s wrong with you?” A soft and waxy voice came, causing the corner of Yun Xiao’s mouth to unconsciously reveal a smile. When Chun Lan heard this address, she was directly stunned.

When Rong Ruo saw Yun Xiao’s expression, she was also shocked. Her heart tightened and she sternly said to Chun Lan, “What are you still standing there for? Come in quickly.”

Chun Lan immediately regained her senses and followed Rong Ruo into a room without caring about anything else.

Yun Xiao lay on the bed and sized up the room. She discovered that this room was the one she had stayed in for the night before.

A man dressed in a crescent moon white robe appeared at the door. Rong Ruo’s face was pale with baby fat, and her voice carried a slight tremor. “Daddy, hurry up and save mother. Mother is about to die.” Yun Xiao’s dress was already soaked in blood, and in Rong Ruo’s eyes, it was as if she was about to die.

When Yun Xiao vaguely heard Rong Ruo’s words, she did not know whether to laugh or cry.

At this moment, Rong Jin had already walked to the bedside and looked at Yun Xiao, who was dressed in blood. A strange look flashed through his dark eyes.

After the treatment, his expression changed slightly. He quickly wrote a prescription and handed it to Uncle Li. Then, he turned around to clean up the wound on Yun Xiao’s wrist. He took out silver needles from the needle bag and sealed Yun Xiao’s acupoints. “I’m going to pull out the arrow. Hold on.”

Yun Xiao bit her lips tightly and nodded. Rong Jin’s hand was already on the hilt of the arrow. The other hand used a burnt-red dagger on her wrist to push away the arrow embedded in her flesh. This arrow was a barbed arrow and could not be pulled out directly, so she had to do so.

The room was terrifyingly quiet. Rong Ruo and Chun Lan unconsciously held their breaths. No one dared to say a word. They saw Rong Jin flipping Yun Xiao’s skin and flesh over with a dagger. With a bit of strength in their hands, the long arrow fell into his hands.

As the long arrow was pulled out, Yun Xiao snorted in pain. Because she was pressed down by Chun Lan, she was unable to move. Blood gushed out and landed on Yun Xiao’s fair wrist, and a few drops landed on Rong Jin’s face.

Rong Jin immediately took out the medicine bottle and sprinkled the medicinal foam on the wound. When the wound encountered the medicinal foam, it would no longer bleed. Rong Jin took the gauze and wrapped it up layer by layer. After doing all of this, drops of sweat had already appeared on his jade-like face.

“Alright, if you don’t want your hand to be crippled, don’t move for a few days.” Rong Jin’s voice carried an indescribable coldness, not the slightest bit of emotion.

Coincidentally, Uncle Li came in with the medicine bowl. Rong Jin packed his things and walked to the side to clean his hands. Yun Xiao did not refuse. She took the medicine bowl and drank it. Then, she said resolutely, “Thank you for today. I want to leave. Can I borrow your carriage?”

Rong Jin turned his eyes in surprise. Although her wound had been treated, there was still a severe cold. It was not suitable for her to move. She had just pulled out an arrow and was about to leave?

The corner of his mouth hooked into a ghostly smile. It was really interesting, but he already understood what Yun Xiao meant. This woman really surprised him time and time again, “Alright.”

Rong Ruo looked at Rong Jin in surprise, “Daddy, mother is like this now, how can you allow her to leave?”

Seeing that Rong Jin was only smiling, although Rong Ruo was impatient, she knew his decision. She turned around and pressed down on Yun Xiao’s body to get up. “Mother, you’re injured and cold at night, can you stay here with Ruo Ruo?”

Yun Xiao’s heart relaxed for a moment, but she could not agree. She touched Rong Ruo’s hair with her uninjured hand and said, “Mother must go back tonight. Don’t worry, I’m fine.”

Right at this moment, Rong Jin directly brought over two dresses and said, “Change your clothes before leaving.”

Yun Xiao looked at the man in front of her in surprise. Her eyes were lowered. She did not expect him to be so careful. She thanked him without being polite. After they all went out, she changed into new clothes with Chun Lan. If she were to go back in such a bloody robe, the Yun Manor would definitely be in chaos.

However, when Yun Xiao got out of bed, a “ding” sound attracted her attention. She looked down and saw a porcelain bottle.

She bent down to pick it up and took it in her palm. The patterns on it were so familiar with the porcelain bottle. She took out the jade bottle she had placed next to her and put it together. The two porcelain bottles were exactly the same.

Yun Xiao’s heart was very uneasy. So that person that night was actually Rong Jin.

“Miss, what are you looking at?”

Chun Lan’s voice rang out. Yun Xiao immediately put away the two porcelain bottles and put on a smile. “Nothing. It’s time for us to go back.”

Chun Lan also knew that a girl’s reputation was more important than her life. A woman who did not return late at night, regardless of whether she was innocent or not, her reputation was ruined.

Because of Shen Yingfan’s incident, Yun Xiao’s reputation was no longer as good as before. She definitely could not spread such rumors.

“Squeak!” He opened the door and saw Rong Ruozheng staring at Yun Xiao, “Mother, I’ll send you back.”

Yun Xiao must have encountered an assassination now. If she went back alone, there would definitely be an accident. Therefore, for her safety, Rong Ruo decided to accompany her back.

Yun Xiao remembered those black-clothed people’s stretching out their hands, and her eyes paused slightly. In the end, she did not refuse. Rong Ruo’s two bodyguards’ skills would definitely allow her to return safely.

With Chun Lan’s help, Yun Xiao and the others walked out of the courtyard door. Sure enough, they saw a simple carriage parked on the road. She stepped on the foot stool and got into the carriage. Her uninjured hand opened the curtain of the carriage and met a pair of gentle eyes. “Why are you here?”

The corner of Rong Jin’s mouth slightly rose, “If I want to see you off, I don’t trust him to come back alone in the middle of the night. I might as well send you off with him.”

Yun Xiao’s hand stiffened slightly. “I can let Ruo stay in Yun Mansion tonight.”

Rong Jin’s eyes fell on her hand, and the corner of his mouth curled into a hint of mockery. “I don’t believe in the safety of the Cloud Manor.”

The corner of her mouth twitched once again, and then she calmly sat down. Since someone was willing to send her back, she was naturally happy. She would be even more relieved if she returned this time.

After Rong Ruo and Chun Lan got on the carriage, the carriage finally started slowly. Rong Ruo looked at Yun Xiao’s pale face and her pair of bright eyes like obsidian flashed with a trace of ruthlessness. Someone had actually injured his mother so badly. He had to make that person pay a painful price!

However, right now, his thoughts were not suitable to be mentioned in front of his mother. Mother only needed to know his cute side.

He walked to Yun Xiao’s side and lifted her injured hand. He blew lightly a few times, and his cute long eyelashes blinked slightly a few times. “If Mother wants to sleep, then go to sleep first. If she will look at you,” he said.

Under Rong Ruo’s gentle coaxing, Yun Xiao’s eyes became darker and darker. She remembered the bowl of medicine she had drunk. Since it was used to treat the cold, she naturally had some medicinal ingredients that could make people drowsy. She really couldn’t hold on any longer, so she closed her eyes.

After an unknown amount of time, the sound of fighting sounded outside the carriage. Chun Lan listened with fear and her face became even more pale. Rong Ruo and Rong Jin’s father and son had incomparably calm expressions on their faces.

Chun Lan watched as her heart slowly relaxed.

Suddenly, the carriage stopped. Chun Lan was about to open the curtain when she heard Rong Ruo’s soft voice. “Wait a moment. Mother is sleeping. Let Mother sleep for a while.”

Chun Lan’s hand that touched the curtain stopped. Looking at Yun Xiao’s exhausted expression, she couldn’t bear it anymore. Moreover, she heard even more intense fighting sounds coming from outside.

Didn’t he hear that voice once before? At this moment, Chun Lan’s body also tightly collapsed.

At this moment, Yun Xiao yelled and opened her eyes. Her delicate voice carried a trace of confusion, “Are you home yet?”
