Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

Chapter 300: Chapter 183: Only This King Can Hold His Woman_2 Chapter 300: Chapter 183: Only This King Can Hold His Woman_2 Trembling, he stretched out a hand, pointing at the lifelike Yuan Bao, “You! You! You…”

“Me? What’s wrong with me?” Yuan Bao pointed at himself, bewildered.

Zhou Zongbao’s gaze drifted downward, his eyes bulging, “Your… stomach?”

Yuan Bao looked down as well, then glared angrily, “How many times have I said it, that’s my waist! It’s my waist!”

“Then… your waist?”

Zhou Zongbao was even more perplexed. Just a moment ago, he had risked his life to stop Mother Tigress from lashing out, and the next moment, Yuan Bao was bursting with energy!

What was this all about?

“My waist… ow…” Remembering his sprained back, Yuan Bao instinctively reached to hold it, then thought again, “Wait, my waist doesn’t hurt anymore?”

The look of surprise was evident on his face; just earlier, moving slightly would be deadly painful, but now it was just a bit sore and swollen, not painful at all!

Zhou Zongbao, who had just been about to scold Yuan Bao for faking illness, held his tongue, seeing Yuan Bao’s foolish reaction, it didn’t seem feigned…

“A thousand taels for the consultation fee, remember to give it to Uncle Song.”

With those words, Gu Changsheng turned and walked towards the dining table in the side hall.

Zhou Mu didn’t even glance at the stupefied duo and followed his beloved to the side hall for dinner.

By the dining table, Little Monk Bu Jie was already holding the Little Wooden Fish, waiting, with several dishes of vegetarian food in front of him.

Zhou Zongbao came back to his senses, looking blankly at Yuan Bao, “A thousand taels for the consultation fee, what the hell is that?”

“Lady Changsheng is a Divine Doctor! A thousand taels for medicine, ten thousand taels to save a life!” Realizing what it implied, Yuan Bao spoke with a bitter smile, his face full of hope as he addressed Zhou Zongbao, “Your Highness Prince Bao, you’re wealthy and powerful, rich as a nation. After all, I sprained my waist just trying to save you, so you should surely pay this consultation fee, right?”

“She charges you silver to treat you?” Zhou Zongbao was first shocked by Gu Changsheng’s exquisite medical skills, then widened his eyes, “That Mother Tigress must see money as her eyeball!”

“The only hobby Lady Changsheng has in her life is treating wealth as her life. Whoever dares short her the consultation fee for treating and saving lives, she’ll surely fight them to the death. Your Highness, Yuan Bao’s stipend is so small, he still needs it to support himself in old age, so this silver, you must pay!” Yuan Bao’s face was resolute, clinging to the consultation fee.

Seeing this, Zhou Zongbao couldn’t help but snort, “I won’t pay! Young Master won’t pay! Just yesterday, I let her rob me of over a hundred thousand taels of silver, and I haven’t even had a chance to demand it back from her!”

“Your Highness, do you still want to see Miss Han Qiu?” Yuan Bao timidly moved forward, reminding him.

At the mention of Han Qiu’s name, Zhou Zongbao immediately deflated.

“Then Young Master will wait to see Xiao Qiu, and then demand the silver from her! Even if I have plenty of silver, it makes a sound when thrown into the water, I can’t let it benefit that Mother Tigress for nothing.” Zhou Zongbao talked as he headed to the side hall.

Yuan Bao followed behind him, shaking his head, “Dreaming, huh? Once the silver reaches Changsheng’s Mother’s hands, trying to get it back, hard luck!”

From his past experiences, Changsheng’s Mother was one who only took in, never gave out!

Once the silver was in her hands, it was like a meat bun hitting… it was gone without a return!

When Zhou Zongbao arrived at the side hall, everyone had already begun eating.

Seeing the servant girl sitting at the dining table, Zhou Zongbao glared!

His enemy was in sight!

“Ah! Prince Bao, come, come, the food I’ve made is really tasty!” Dong Lei saw him entering, nobody greeting him, just standing there looking pitiful, and hurriedly invited him to eat.

“Humph!” Zhou Zongbao snorted coldly, unappreciated.

Giving a slap then offering a sweet date, he considered himself a reputable man, not so easily bought!

He was hard to buy, but some others were more easily persuaded.

Yuan Bao, who had just walked in and heard Dong Lei’s words, dashed over right away.

Zhou Zongbao watched the whole quirky family along with a little monk, utterly speechless.

He felt an intense sense of being left out.

“Ahem!” Zhou Mu added a chopstick of green vegetables to Gu Changsheng’s bowl and subtly coughed to signal him.

Getting the hint, Gu Changsheng bit into his bun resentfully, “Food is over there, serve yourself if you want to eat, or keep being part of the scenery!”

To be insulted and still worry about his meal!

Humph!

Gu Changsheng was still irritated, and quite reluctant!

If it weren’t for his status, and considering Zhou Mu’s face, plus the fact that Gu Changsheng himself admired his protective nature, she really would have thrown him out again!

“Young Master, I don’t…” Just as Zhou Zongbao was about to say he wouldn’t eat, a cold glance from Zhou Mu made him swallow the rest of his words.

Upon looking again, he saw that Mother Tigress was already neatly eating, not giving him a second glance.

Zhou Zongbao felt that if he finished that sentence, he probably really wouldn’t have gotten any food…

Eating was important, being full was essential to have the energy to find Xiao Qiu!

With this mindset, Zhou Zongbao glared at Gu Changsheng and reluctantly went to get his own food.

It was his first time serving food, and Zhou Zongbao was so clumsy he nearly knocked over the small rice pot several times.

In the end, Dong Lei couldn’t stand to watch and got up to help him serve a bowl of porridge, allowing him to sit down at the table peacefully.

Despite his worries clouding his mind, even with delicacies from land and sea, Zhou Zongbao found no taste in his food.

Gu Changsheng finished her breakfast feeling content and satisfied, as she was someone very easily pleased.

“Where is Xiao Qiu?”

Zhou Zongbao persistently followed her, repeatedly asking about Han Qiu’s whereabouts.

From sticking to Zhou Mu alone to pestering both Zhou Zongbao and Zhou Mu collectively, Gu Changsheng was unfazed, accustomed to such behavior, let them be!

“She didn’t come back here yesterday, she must have gone back to Dark Camp Fortress.”

“When are we heading to Dark Camp Fortress?” Zhou Zongbao immediately asked.

“Didn’t you see Xiao Leizi packing? Once he’s done, we’ll head to the mountains.” Gu Changsheng continued without a glance at him.

As if being a past Emperor was anything special! She had already offended the current Emperor, not to mention one from the past!
