Chapter 490: Another Medicinal Bath

At the same time, when Lu Wei found out that his precious daughter had been bullied, he immediately put down his unfinished work in anger and rushed back to the Lu family’s mansion.

Once he entered the mansion’s courtyard, Lu Wei saw his precious daughter kneeling at the entrance of the courtyard with tears streaming down her face. He quickly took two steps forward and came to Lu Tian. He frowned tightly and his heart ached as he helped his daughter up. He comforted her, “Tiantian, my baby Tiantian, are you alright? I was late!”

Seeing that Lu Wei wanted to help her up from the ground, Lu Tian sobbed twice and gently pushed the man’s hand. She sniffled pitifully and complained aggrievedly, “Dad, sob, sob, stop helping me up. It’s useless. It’s all that unpresentable little b*tch’s fault. Lu Zheng, that illegitimate child, found a little girl from somewhere and pretended to be a doctor who could treat the old master. It’s all that girl’s fault. My legs don’t feel anything now. I can only maintain this posture and kneel on the ground!”

Lu Wei was Old Master Lu’s second son. He had been arrogant and domineering in the Lu family since he was young. As his beloved daughter, Lu Tian had learned many bad habits from him all these years. Furthermore, Lu Wei doted on this daughter of his, which resulted in Lu Tian’s fearless personality.

Upon hearing Lu Tian’s pitiful tone and seeing that his precious daughter could only kneel on the ground aggrievedly after being bullied, the anger in Lu Wei’s chest could no longer be suppressed. His anger rushed to the top of his head and clenched his fists ruthlessly. He said coldly, “Alright, Lu Zheng actually dared to let someone treat you like this. I’ll teach him a lesson!”

Just as he finished speaking, Lu Wei neatly called the bodyguards of the second family over. He comforted Lu Tian briefly and rushed into the house with a cold expression.

At this moment, Mo Zhu had already skillfully organized and categorized the herbs. She used the small scale that Lu Zheng had specially found to measure the amount of the herbs and she instructed the Lu family’s servants to place a huge bathtub in the man’s bathroom. After adjusting the water temperature, she placed the various herbs into the bucket in an orderly manner according to the matched sequence.

Standing at the side and seeing all of Mo Zhu’s actions, Lu Zheng raised his eyebrows and asked curiously, “Ms. Mo, do you want me to soak in the medicinal bath to cure the poison?”

When Mo Zhu heard this, she continued to pour the herbs into the bucket. She nodded and explained, “That’s right. The poison in your body is too serious and the poison is everywhere in your body. We can only treat you according to the situation after the medicinal bath has expelled the poison from your skin.”

After a pause, she seemed to have thought of something and added with a frown, “You’re lucky that I have time to come to the Lu family today. If you had come a few days later, I wouldn’t have been able to save you even if you had sent someone to invite me.”

…

According to the diagnosis of Lu Zheng in the main hall just now, Mo Zhu knew that he had been suffering from the poison’s attack for a week. With so much poison working in the man’s body at the same time, Lu Zheng could last for seven days only because he was young. If it was a middle-aged or old person, they would probably be incurable after a day.

As she spoke, Mo Zhu had already completed mixing the herbs and adjusting the water temperature in the bathtub. She placed the bag of herbs by her feet and pointed at the bathtub. “The medicinal bath is ready. You can go in and try it.”

Upon hearing Mo Zhu’s words, Lu Zheng was silent for a moment. He seemed to have thought of something and his eyes widened slightly. He asked in disbelief, “Ms. Mo, do you mean that you want to watch me soak in it?”

As Lu Zheng’s physique was special, he had come into contact with many medicinal baths since he was young. Therefore, he naturally knew that he had to strip naked and soak in this medicinal bath for the full effect of the medicine to be unleashed.

At this moment, Mo Zhu had ordered him to enter the bathtub as if nothing had happened. It seemed like she had no intention of avoiding suspicion by leaving, so he had no choice but to ask the girl this question.

When Mo Zhu heard this, she raised her eyebrows and asked with interest, “Why? If I’m not the one watching you, do you want to watch me go in?”

Lu Zheng was speechless by Mo Zhu’s words. He smiled awkwardly and explained, “I have to take off your clothes for this medicinal bath, you…”
