Shengjing Noble

Chapter 436: Secret Pregnancy

Su Lanyin placed the gifts she bought on the road on the table, then walked over and asked, "Master, can you bear to let a sick boy like him boil medicine outside?"

Doctor Xue slowly opened his eyes, then sat up and looked outside, lowering his voice and saying softly, "The herbalists are out collecting herbs today, and I don't have enough manpower. What's more, I originally wanted to make things difficult for him so that he would give up, but who knew that he would happily agree."

"The Seventh Prince is a simple and honest man. Aren't you bullying him by doing this?"

"How dare you talk to the master like that, you damn girl?"

"Of course I have to tell you what you did wrong."

Doctor Xue rolled his eyes in anger: "What do you know? I'm training his physical strength. What's more, the medicine he boiled was specially prepared by me just for him to smell."

"Ah?" Su Lanyin's face was full of surprise.

"His body is too weak right now. Even if he takes supplements, he can't absorb them. So he can only inhale them through his sense of smell to stimulate the medicinal properties in his body."

"I see, Master also has this skill? Why haven't I learned it? Are you a hidden master?"

"You are such a weird little girl. Where am I hiding my teacher? You didn't read the medical book carefully, did you? I mentioned this method in the last few pages!"

"Ah! Really? I don't remember that..."

"Humph, it's obvious that you're being lazy and didn't read the medical book to the end!"

"Oh, Master, don't worry about it."

"Tell me, what are you doing here this time?"

"What else can I do? I haven't seen you for a long time, and I missed you very much, so I brought some things to visit you."

"Smooth talk! But I've heard a lot of rumors about you lately."

"My rumors?"

"Yes, they all said that you and King Xiaoyao have an unclear relationship and are very close. Is this true?"

"Who said that?" Su Lanyin put her hands on her hips, pretending to be angry.

"Are you feeling guilty?" Doctor Xue said.

"No! Not at all!"

She admitted that her master's words had completely broken her defenses.

"So what is your relationship?"

"We are just... ordinary friends." Su Lanyin said in a low voice with her head down.

"Then why is the rumor out there so outrageous?"

"How outrageous is it?"

"Some people say that you seduced King Xiaoyao and even slept with him. Some people also say that you gave King Xiaoyao money to him so that he would pay you more attention. Oh, and some people even say that King Xiaoyao and you have been secretly having an affair, and you are even pregnant!"

"They're farting!"

Su Lanyin couldn't help but shouted loudly.

Doctor Xue quickly asked her to speak in a low voice, but she really couldn't control her temper.

"Keep your voice down. Don't let outsiders hear such vulgarity. I can't afford to lose face."

"Master, don't believe what people say. Fu Wuyang and I are innocent. We have only worked on a few cases together. Apart from that, there is absolutely no love affair between us."

"Is that so? Then is there anyone you are thinking about?"

Su Lanyin blushed: "Master, why are you asking this?"

"As your master, shouldn't I care about you?"

"It should be, but..."

Su Lanyin seemed to be hesitant to speak, looking like she was troubled by something.

"what happened?"

"It's nothing, it's almost time for dinner, Cuizhu and I will prepare lunch for you, Master."

Having said that, Su Lanyin stood up and hurriedly fled the room, fearing that Doctor Xue would continue to ask her questions.

When they arrived at the kitchen, Cuizhu took control of the situation and Su Lanyin was only responsible for helping to pick vegetables.

"Miss, just sit here and help me pick up these vegetable leaves. Leave the rest to me."

"okay."

Su Lanyin sat on a stool picking vegetables, while Cuizhu was busy preparing rice for the pot.

At this time, Fu Mingchuan walked in from outside and asked cautiously: "Um... do you need my help?"

Su Lanyin quickly stood up and said, "My Lord, aren't you going to make medicine?"

"Sister Lanyin, we agreed before that you can just call me Big Brother, no need for honorifics."

"Oh yeah, I forgot... I'm sorry, Brother Fu."

"It's okay, no need to say sorry to me, let me help you?"

"So...your medicine?"

"It's ready. The doctor told me to go back, but I don't want to leave. If I help with the cooking, can I stay a little longer?"

"Uh... probably. Master will never chase away the people who cook with him."

"Then can I help?"

"Then what can you do?"

"I don't know..." He walked in, his face full of curiosity, "What are you doing?"

“Picking vegetables.”

Fu Mingchuan squatted down and looked at the vegetable leaves in the basket.

"Let me help you? Teach me how to pick it."

"Just remove the roots and then pick out the rotten ones and throw them away, and put the remaining good ones in a basin, and Cuizhu will wash them later."

"So simple? I should be able to do it."

"Let's go together then."

Su Lanyin dragged a stool from the side for him, and Fu Mingchuan sat down, then bent over and picked vegetables with her.

Coincidentally, they reached out at the same time, Su Lanyin grabbed the dish, and Fu Mingchuan grabbed her hand.

"Uh……"

The two were stunned for a moment, looked up at each other, and then withdrew their hands as if they had been electrocuted.

This sudden contact made both of them a little nervous.

Su Lanyin felt more embarrassed.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to offend you... I..." Fu Mingchuan apologized hastily, his eyes full of panic, as if he had done something unforgivable wrong.

His appearance made Su Lanyin think of Fu Wuyang.

Both of them are royal relatives, but one is like a gangster, teasing her whenever he gets the chance, while the other is like a modest gentleman, the bright moon, full of respect for her and not daring to overstep the line.

Although they could not be compared, she couldn't help feeling a sense of loss.

Logically, Fu Wuyang was not her type, but perhaps because of the love she developed over time, she inexplicably couldn't let go of him.

Even when facing Fu Mingchuan, he would still think of Fu Wuyang's face.

"Are you OK?"

Seeing that she looked worried, Fu Mingchuan felt a little worried.

"I'm fine, continue picking vegetables."

"Ok."

Fu Mingchuan didn't dare to ask further. After all, she probably didn't want to say it.

Although he was worried, he would rather she confessed to him on her own initiative rather than being questioned.

He reached out and picked up a vegetable, and as soon as he brought it in front of him, he saw a green caterpillar crawling out from the leaves.

At that moment, Fu Mingchuan yelled and threw the food away. At the same time, he leaned back and fell on his buttocks on the ground.

"Ah? What's wrong?"

Su Lanyin was startled and quickly stood up and looked around, thinking that an assassin was chasing her.

After making sure that there was no one around, she quickly went to help Fu Mingchuan, who was lying on the ground with a frightened look on his face.

He was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he held Su Lanyin's arm tightly, not daring to let go.

"Are you okay? What happened?"

"Bugs, bugs..." Fu Mingchuan pointed at the vegetable on the ground with red eyes and a look of grievance.

Su Lanyin: “???”
