Tang Ming felt the chilling anger coming from Gu Changqing and was shocked on the spot.

Gu Changqing didn't want to wake Gu Yan, so he didn’t continue to fight with him, and just put his sword back into its sheath and left with Gu Yan.

It was not until Gu Changqing disappeared at the end of the street that Tang Ming was brought back to his senses by the cold rain.

d.a.m.n it!

Was he just threatened by Gu Changqing?

Gu Changqing sent Gu Yan back to Bishui Alley, while on the other side, Gu Jiao also returned to the medical hall.

She went in through the back door, headed directly to her small courtyard, changed back into women's clothes and went to the lobby.

Shopkeeper w.a.n.g was stunned when he saw her, "Yi? Where did you come in?"

"Back door." Gu Jiao answered.

Little San followed behind and didn't dare to say anything.

Physician Song came down from upstairs to see a patient and said h.e.l.lo to Gu Jiao by the way.

Shopkeeper w.a.n.g handed her a cup of tea.

Gu Jiao picked up the teacup and took a sip, then she asked Physician Song, "How is Jiang Shi's situation?"

"The change in weather caused him to suddenly catch a cold. He had a high fever at noon. But it has gone down after he took medicine."

"It’d be best if he doesn’t catch a cold now, it can easily lead to complications." Gu Jiao said and paused, "I'll go and take a look later."

"Understood." Physician Song replied.

“Physician Song! This patient said you gave him a prescription but he lost it, asking if he can still get the medicine?" The medicine boy at the medicine cabinet called Physician Song over.

Physician Song, "I'll go over there first."

Gu Jiao nodded.

Physician Song went to the counter where the medicine was given.

There were not many patients at this time, and the medical hall wasn’t busy. Shopkeeper w.a.n.g invited Gu Jiao to the accounting office and told her about the follow-up of the medical dispute, "...those people belong to a small gang in the capital, who spend their days doing nothing but thieving. They’re not from this area, but from the western part of the capital. I promised them I wouldn't report them to the authorities as long as they told me who was behind it. I was simply intimidating them, I didn't expect that they were really instructed by someone!"

This came as no surprise to Gu Jiao.

"Someone from the same trade?" Gu Jiao asked.

Shopkeeper w.a.n.g replied, "That's what I guessed too. When they admitted that there was a mastermind, I thought to myself, can it be… my old boss in Rejuvenation Hall? But guess what, Gu girl, they told me... that it's a young lady! "

Gu Jiao asked, "How old is this young lady?"

Shopkeeper w.a.n.g nodded and recalled, "They said that she was quite young. She’s in her teens, but because she was wearing a veiled hat, they didn't see what she looked like. Though her clothes look quite expensive according to them. When I think about it, there are no teenage girls working in Rejuvenation Hall, and the daughter in Second Owner’s family is less than seven years old! However, if you say it was the shopkeeper's daughter... then she couldn’t possibly have such an expensive dress."

Shopkeeper w.a.n.g really had no clue as to who that girl might be.

Gu Jiao stroked her chin, "A young lady, huh?"

The rain outside had stopped, but the sky was still overcast, it seemed another heavy rain might come at any time.

The women's academy didn't dare to delay the end of cla.s.s and dismissed the students on time.

Li Wanwan's home wasn’t close by, and she didn’t have a carriage like the other girls did, so she had to get home before it rained again.

Holding the guqin case in her arms, she hurried out of the women's academy.

Perhaps because she was in such a hurry, she did not notice a man coming down from the carriage at the entrance of the medical hall.

"Ah..."

Li Wanwan b.u.mped into the man's arm.

In a music room on the second floor of the women’s academy, a young girl, with her eyes full of sparks, watched An Junw.a.n.g as he stepped down from the carriage.

Suddenly, she saw Li Wanwan b.u.mp into him, and her eyes turned very cold.

"I’m sorry, I’m sorry!" Li Wanwan hurriedly apologized.

An Junw.a.n.g didn't look at her. Wu Yang went up to her and said, "It's okay, young miss. Did you get hurt?"

"No, no!" Li Wanwan didn't dare to look up at the two of them. Since the other party didn't pursue it, she just hurried away with the guqin case in her arms.

The girl observing from nearby gradually relaxed her eyebrows, and her eyes were once again filled with starlight as she continued to look at An Junw.a.n.g.

She raised her hand and waved at An Junw.a.n.g.

An Junw.a.n.g didn't see her and walked towards the medical hall with his head occupied with something.

Suddenly, another young miss from the women's academy came up to him.

"An... Junw.a.n.g?" Looking uncertain, the young miss called An Junw.a.n.g who was about to enter the medical hall.

An Junw.a.n.g looked back at her and asked doubtfully, "Is something the matter, young miss?"

The young miss covered her mouth excitedly and said, "Your poems are so well written! I have been collecting your poems since I was a child! I actually made a collection of your poems!"

An Junw.a.n.g smiled politely.

This was how he was. He always acted like a gentleman to everyone.

The girl upstairs couldn't hear what they were saying, but she saw the two of them talking and laughing, and a pang of jealousy ran through her heart.

The young miss patted her forehead in realization, saying, "Oh, I left my poetry collection in the cla.s.sroom! Junw.a.n.g, please wait a moment, I'll get my poetry collection. I don't quite understand a few poems, and I want to ask Junw.a.n.g for advice!"

After saying that, she quickly went back to the women's academy.

Her cla.s.sroom was on the second floor.

At the moment, the women's academy students had mostly gone home, the hallway of the second floor was empty, and her footsteps seemed to reverberate.

She pushed through the door and saw her poetry collection covered with a handkerchief on the table. She breathed a sigh of relief, put the handkerchief away and carefully held the poetry collection in her arms.

An Junw.a.n.g was still waiting for her. She quickly walked out of the cla.s.sroom.

Just as she was about to go downstairs, a plain hand stretched out from the darkness, slowly reaching her back, and was about to push her down.

At that moment, in the lobby on the first floor, Zhuang Mengdie came running holding her skirt up a bit, "Who is it?"

The young miss’s steps halted.

The hand behind her also swished away, and the owner of the hand hid behind the wall.

The young miss was startled by this sudden sound. After a pause, she said, "Young Miss Zhuang, it's me."

Zhuang Mengdie couldn't see her clearly in the dark, but she was able to confirm her ident.i.ty through her voice.

Zhuang Mengdie said disappointedly, "It's Young Miss Zhang. Have you seen my sister?"

Young Miss Zhang shook her head, "I didn't see her."

Zhuang Mengdie stomped her foot irritably, "Really! Where did she go? I told her to wait for me! I just went to the latrine for a bit but when I came back, she had disappeared!"

When Young Miss Zhang saw Zhuang Mengdie walking away as she complained, somehow, she seemed to feel a sense of danger. She mustered up the courage to look back, but saw nothing.

Feeling uneasy, she called Zhuang Mengdie, "Young Miss Zhuang, can I go with you?"

"Hurry up!" Zhuang Mengdie said impatiently.

"Coming." Young Miss Zhang hugged the poetry collection in her arms and quickly went downstairs.
