Chapter 72: Inside the Temple of the Koi Fish God 6

After the triplets walked out of the koi temple, Qi Qingyao hugged them and gave them each a peck on the cheek. Dabao and Erniu were fine, but Xiaobao’s little face turned red in an instant, like an apple. Even the tips of his ears blushed.

“Oh? Why are you so embarrassed by a kiss from your mother?” Qi Qingyao could not help teasing him, scratching Xiaobao’s nose with her finger.

“M-Mommy, you gotta warn me in advance before you kiss me next time!” Before this, Qi Qingyao would only rub their heads at the most. She had never kissed them so intimately before! Of course Xiaobao could not help but be shy and shocked.

“If I tell you in advance, it wouldn’t be a surprise anymore!” Qi Qingyao said.

Xiaobao rubbed his red ears and lowered his head. He was so embarrassed that he ran behind Jiang Yeqian and hugged his legs.

The guards witnessed this scene unfolding.

They exchanged a look.

The woman was beautiful and had eyes as dark as ebony. Although she could be a little rude, she did have the aura of a master. As for those three adorable children with her, could they be adopted? What about the Ox-head and Horse-face? They almost made her feel like King Yanluo of the Tenth Hall, overseer of life and death. Could it be that she was not bluffing, after all? Was she really some hidden master healer? A mysterious physician?

The guard stepped forth and said, “Miss, please wait.”

Qi Qingyao had just turned around and was about to reply when Jiang Yeqian murmured to her,

“Are you really going to become a physician?”

Qi Qingyao gave him a sideways look. “I saved your sorry life. What do you think?”

“…”

His s-sorry life…

The corners of Jiang Yeqian’s mouth twitched uncontrollably.

“I didn’t get a single coin after treating you, and that really ticks me off! Now I finally have a chance to earn money, so why should I turn it down? This could be a real cash cow too!” That Heir they keep talking about must be loaded!

Jiang Yeqian could not get a word in edgewise.

However, he thought to himself,

‘The patient is Heir Pei. Apparently, he was poisoned in Qingzhou City four years ago, and he’s been visited by an endless stream of physicians since, but they couldn’t do a thing for him.

‘He’s on his last legs now, and he probably… won’t make it.’

If this woman insisted on treating Heir Pei, Jiang Yeqian was even more adamant to keep his mask on…

After all, Heir Pei knew him!

“This must be the Koi God’s blessing!” Qi Qingyao dropped another kiss on Erniu’s cheek and mumbled, “Dear god, when I make it rich, I’ll definitely pay you back with more incense and candles!”

The guard looked at Ox-head and Horse-face following behind her and asked, “Are these two your servants, ma’am?”

“Yep, yep.” Qi Qingyao nodded fervently.

The guard, “…”

If she had Ox-head and Horse-face trailing behind her, she had to be a skilled genius!

Only a genius could be so eccentric.

The guard gestured at her, inviting her to come with him. “In that case, please come with us to the Heir’s villa.”

Qi Qingyao nodded.

Dabao cocked his head curiously. “Mommy, where are we going?”

“To earn money.” Qi Qingyao winked her left eye at him and added two words with emphasis, “Big money!”

The guards exchanged another look filled with contempt.

The woman was eccentric, yes, but the way she claimed she could cure the Heir’s disease… She may be biting off more than she could chew!

Well, they just had to hope she was the real thing for now.

After they left the koi temple, Qi Qingyao realized that the guards were planning to walk to their destination. Exasperated, she asked,

“Is it far away?”

“It’s in Baishui Town, so not too far,” the guard replied patiently.

“Don’t you have a carriage?” Qi Qingyao asked again.

“We do.” The girl sure had a lot of demands. That was reminiscent of those other miraculous physicians, all of whom were strange and troublesome! “Please wait, madam physician.” The guards’ attitudes turned respectful instinctively.

Not long later, one of the guards went to hire a carriage. In no time at all, two large canvassed carriages stopped in front of Qi Qingyao. Qi Qingyao and her crew took the one at the back.

Meanwhile, the guards took the one at the front.
