Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

Chapter 261: Chapter 157: My Beloved Truly Knows Me Chapter 261: Chapter 157: My Beloved Truly Knows Me Gu Changsheng lifted his hands innocently, shrugged, and said, “Blame me?”

The anxious Yuan Bao pursed his lips. Alright, the main culprit showed no signs of awareness for his crimes!

“Lady Changsheng, aren’t you worried at all? This is, after all, a grave crime! If something happens to our master, I won’t want to live either!” Yuan Bao, imagining the possible outcomes, suddenly had tears streaming down his face.

Just as Gu Changsheng was about to say something comforting, he saw Zhou Mu emerge from behind the curtain.

Leaning against the archway with his tall and proud stature, Zhou Mu glanced at Yuan Bao and said, “You’re getting more and more expressive, learning to tattle, not to mention crying all day long.”

Yuan Bao was taken aback and quickly wiped his face clean, then stepped forward with concern. “My lord, why do you look so pale? Did you not sleep well just now?”

Zhou Mu rubbed his forehead, troubled, and nodded.

The next moment, Yuan Bao covered his mouth, “You continue sleeping, my lord. I promise I won’t speak anymore.”

Gu Changsheng took Zhou Mu’s hand, checking his pulse. “How is it, do you feel any better?”

Zhou Mu looked at her affectionately and nodded. “With you here, naturally I feel extremely well.”

The corner of Gu Changsheng’s mouth twitched involuntarily, and she quietly rolled her eyes. What a thing to say…

It’s too damn flirtatious!

The sick Zhou Mu was like a totally different person, with no bottom line for integrity…

Indeed, Yuan Bao’s mouth dropped open wide enough to fit an egg.

This man, who was now sweet-talking, was really the same noble, aloof, and taciturn master of his?

Thinking like this, the very confused Yuan Bao did as he thought, reaching out his paw and shaking it in front of Zhou Mu’s face while muttering, “Could it be… something evil?”

Gu Changsheng watched dumbfounded as Yuan Bao, this foolish tiger, spoke nonsense. She sincerely wanted to give him a round of applause!

Something evil! Definitely something evil! She had the same illusion!

In the past two days, Zhou Mu thoroughly shattered her definition of noble aloofness, evolving into a lovably dumb character.

Zhou Mu’s eyebrows momentarily furrowed, and he shot a chilling glance.

Instantly, Yuan Bao was petrified.

“My lord…” In tearless grief, this was the real deal!

“Alright, stop teasing him. He’s probably hungry from not eating for two days, nearly starving to stupidity,” Gu Changsheng kindly patted Yuan Bao’s hand away, coming to his rescue.

Relieved by her words, Yuan Bao nodded eagerly. It was hunger! Or how would he foolishly wave his paw in front of his lord’s face?

“You’re just too kind.” The next moment, Zhou Mu’s face turned towards Gu Changsheng, as if warmed by a spring breeze.

Gu Changsheng neither confirmed nor denied this, feeling only that she might have kept Yuan Bao locked in the firewood room for a bit too long, feeling a sense of guilt. It absolutely wasn’t because she was saving face for Zhou Mu that she helped Yuan Bao.

After helping Zhou Mu to sit down, Gu Changsheng exhibited unprecedented virtuousness.

“Was it them who hurt you? Southern Fujian really is a crouching tiger, hidden dragon, teeming with talent,” she observed.

Zhou Mu’s long eyelashes drooped slightly, a trace of worry crossing his eyes, and he finally nodded.

Yuan Bao, hearing that his lord was injured, immediately tensed up, but before he could utter a word, Zhou Mu gave him another cold look, rendering him unable to move.

It’s over, the lord’s heart is too partial. Towards Lady Changsheng, he is warm as a spring breeze, but towards him, why is he as harsh as frost and snow?

This disparity is just too great; Eunuch Yuan Bao is deeply saddened…

“Your strategy of killing two birds with one stone is not bad, cruel, decisive, and gutsy!” Gu Changsheng gave Zhou Mu a thumbs-up, genuinely admiring such decisiveness.

Well done! She liked it!

“Of course. How else would I have caught your eye?” Zhou Mu boasted with a smirk, his flirtatious words spilling naturally, with not a hint of blushing.

Gu Changsheng’s mouth twitched again. She decided to be more composed in the future; her mouth had been twitching a bit too much lately, and her cheeks might well turn into tofu blocks if it continued.

She needed to stand firm like Mount Tai’s Overwhelming Pressure, unflinching no matter what astonishing words Zhou Mu said.

Gu Changsheng comforted herself with this thought and looked on with sympathy at Yuan Bao, who seemed struck by lightning.

Poor thing, look how scared he is, almost petrified…

“Do you think with this approach, you can achieve what you desire?” Whether or not to comment on Zhou Mu’s narcissism, Gu Changsheng was curious about his expectations for the outcome.

Zhou Mu took the decoction she handed him and drank it in one go, frowning slightly. “The planning is up to us, but the outcome is in the hands of heaven. Do your best and let fate do the rest,” he said.

Gu Changsheng, upon hearing this, felt a sense of relief.
