The Useless Miracle Doctor Consort Is Spoiled Rotten by the Prince! - Chapter 904
Chapter 904: Chapter 902: The Forgetful Potion
Mo Qi, after attending to Chu Yihan, finally found a moment to visit Su Yingxue.
Seeing Su Yingxue leisurely preparing medicine, mumbling to herself, not knowing to whom she was speaking, Mo Qi knocked on the door, “Princess, may I come in?”
Su Yingxue looked up and said to Little Ginseng, “Alright, you go practice now!”
Then, she waved Mo Qi in, “Come in!”
Mo Qi stood opposite her, his sword properly secured at his waist, young and handsomely boyish, his eyes like a galaxy, which were a pleasant sight to behold.
Su Yingxue’s hand rested on the copper pestle used for grinding medicine, as she appraised him with composure, “Mo Qi, just speak your mind, there’s no need for politeness with me. You’ve served His Highness for so long, and you don’t need to stand on ceremony with me, your Princess.”
“I would like to ask the Princess for a certain medicine,” Mo Qi stated bluntly.
Su Yingxue blinked, “What medicine?”
She knew that Mo Qi had been injured in the eye before and had taken some time to recuperate before hurrying to the Great Wei Dynasty.
But Chu Yihan’s men were particularly resilient to injuries, so Su Yingxue hadn’t been too concerned about Mo Qi.
Now that Mo Qi had spoken up, she certainly wouldn’t refuse.
“The Princess is peerless in medical skills. I wonder if you have ever developed a medicine that can make one forget feelings,” Mo Qi’s amber eyes unwittingly spread a trace of pain.
Su Yingxue paused, “No.”
Such a medicine was indeed beyond the scope of her current research.
Mo Qi was the first to come to her seeking such a remedy.
“Could the Princess consider the loyalty I’ve shown His Highness over the years, and my utmost effort to protect the Princess, and develop such a medicine for me?” Mo Qi’s tone was quiet, pleading, and his voice gradually grew moist.
This room was small, and sorrow could be contagious.
Su Yingxue also began to feel the sadness.
Mo Qi had feelings for Hong Lian, a fact she learned later, and Mo Qi had even apologized to her for causing misunderstandings between her and Chu Yihan before, saying it was his fault, and he had accepted his punishment.
Now he was asking for a medicine to forget feelings…
Su Yingxue gazed steadily at him, “Are you certain? Do you really need to rely on medicine? It is not impossible for human effort to achieve this. You are the most formidable person by His Highness’s side, the leader of the Shadow Guards, with outstanding achievements and perseverance. Over time, you will surely forget her. Moreover, you will meet many people in the future, and you are bound to find a better Miss, who will bring you good fortune.”
“There won’t be another,” Mo Qi said, looking down.
Su Yingxue seemed to hear something shattering in the air, breaking so cleanly; the feeling told her it couldn’t be picked up, couldn’t be restored.
Just as she was wondering how to comfort Mo Qi, she heard his muffled voice, filled with profound depression, “Love is a terrifying thing; it turns a person’s name into a seal, closing off your heart. You can’t escape, and no one else can enter.”
Su Yingxue was taken aback, “Really… that terrifying?”
She attempted to imagine it, what it would be like if she were to give up Chu Yihan and be with someone else…
The feeling of her heart being torn and in pain was very real.
She couldn’t do it.
Love indeed was terrifying.
She promised Mo Qi, “I will do my best to develop it for you, but it will take time. I may even need to go back and ask Saint Ruan for help, but I will get the medicine for you.”
“Thank you, Princess.”
A faint smile appeared on the man’s face, slightly bitter and yet heavy.
But in his amber-colored eyes, Su Yingxue thought she saw a glimmer of hope.
