“If it wasn’t me, could it be that you think you’ve somehow saved yourself?” crooned Ling Chuxi as she raised her brows. “Therefore, I’m telling you, don’t even think of reneging on your debt.”

“No, no, my lady. That’s not what I meant.” A gentle and helpless smile appeared on the handsome man’s face. “I just meant that I never thought anyone could actually save me. I thought I would no longer be able to wake up again today.”

“Indeed, the frost poison in your body is a little tricky to address, but it isn’t entirely untreatable…” explained Ling Chuxi proudly as she thought of ways to trick more money out of this man. While all this was ongoing, footsteps sounded from behind her. It was Ling Yichen and Xia Zhuoyi coming over.

“Senior Brother!” exclaimed Ling Yichen in astonishment when he approached the man and Ling Chuxi.

“Yichen?” replied the handsome man, who was also a little surprised to see Ling Yichen.

“Eh?” Ling Chuxi blinked and looked from the pale-faced man to Ling Yichen. “Yichen, is this your senior brother?” ‘The current ninth prince, Fu Chengyu?’

“Yes. This is my senior brother, Fu Chengyu.” Ling Yichen stepped forward. “Senior brother, this is Ling Chuxi. Also, I must ask… What happened to you? Why do you look like this?” Ling Yichen could also tell that something was wrong. Why would Fu Chengyu step into a hot spring fully dressed?

“The frost poison in me acted up and I had originally intended to soak in the hot spring long enough to rid myself of the chills. However, it acted up so badly this time. I didn’t think I would awaken ever again. It was Miss Chuxi who saved me,” explained Fu Chengyu as he smiled slightly and sighed. “I must say, Miss Chuxi is so young, but her medical skills are very outstanding.”

“Buttering me up is useless,” remarked Ling Chuxi as she glared at Fu Chengyu. “Seeing as you are Yichen’s senior brother, I will give you a discount of 20%. I will just charge you eight thousand gold taels. If you don’t have the money now, you can owe me first.”

“Chuxi, you are really…” trailed off Ling Yichen as he smiled helplessly. “You’re still able to kid at this moment. Have you already diagnosed my senior brother? Is it treatable?”

“Yes, it is! It’s just a little tricky to do so.” Ling Chuxi stopped horsing around and put on a serious expression. “It’s troublesome to get the herbs required. However, it’ll be fine. I can perform acupuncture on him frequently and use other medicinal pills to supplement his health first. That should be enough to lengthen his life for another eight to ten years. This should give us sufficient time to search for the necessary herbs.”

“Can you really treat my frost poison?” asked Fu Chengyu as his smile disappeared and he looked at Ling Chuxi in disbelief. He was clearer than anyone about the potency of the frost poison in his body. It had tortured him for many years. He had travelled to various places and seen numerous famous doctors, but none of them had any way of treating him. Now, as he was hearing Ling Chuxi say such words, he could not help but be a little apprehensive. But at the same time, he felt that Ling Chuxi was not joking around.

“How dare you doubt me. Go to hell, then!” burst Ling Chuxi as she violently plucked out a golden needle from Fu Chengyu’s body. It was so painful that Fu Chengyu grimaced in pain.

“Chuxi…” said Ling Yichen very helplessly. “Senior brother didn’t do that on purpose. Don’t be so calculative towards him.”

“Hmph!” snorted Ling Chuxi as she packed away her golden needles. She was also a little surprised at Fu Chengyu’s determination and perseverance. If it were any other normal person, having a golden needle violently pulled out from their acupoint would have already left them rolling on the floor in pain. However, Fu Chengyu did not even make a sound as he held in the pain.

“Indeed. Miss Chuxi, please pay no mind to my words. I was simply astonished that although you are so young, your medical skills are so outstanding. That is all,” apologized Fu Chengyu gently as he smiled politely. His handsome face was calm, but it made Ling Chuxi feel a little embarrassed.
