“As long as Divine Doctor Gu agrees, after saving my master’s life, I will definitely offer the Thousand-year Ice Silkworm!”
Hearing the waver in Gu Yu’s voice, Shen Xue, who was on the opposite side, immediately took the initiative. Her resolute words revealed her determination.
However, Gu Yu did not reply directly.
Although with his medical skills, he could save someone whose neck was buried in the ground, he still needed to confirm… whether the Tianshan Sect truly possessed a Thousand-year Ice Silkworm!
If they were lying to him, then all his effort would be in vain!
“Does the Tianshan Sect have a Thousand-year Ice Silkworm? Is there any related proof? Just opening and closing your mouth without any credibility!”
“The silk spun by the Thousand-year Ice Silkworm is different from ordinary silk. Not only is it impervious to water and fire, but it also emits a cold aura. Embroidered items made from it are rare treasures that are hard to come by.”
“Then take it out and let me see. Also, no need to hide anymore… Since you’ve already presented a bargaining chip that moved me, I naturally won’t make things difficult for you.”
“…”
After Gu Yu finished speaking, Shen Xue did not hesitate for too long and walked out from behind the carriage.
At the same time, Xi Yang obediently followed by her side, appearing too scared to move, which made Gu Yu grit his teeth.
Xi Yang is so cowardly, it’s truly embarrassing!
However, although Shen Xue was wearing a veil, she looked quite beautiful, especially those purple eyes…
Wait, purple eyes???
Gu Yu looked at Shen Xue’s unusual eyes and then exchanged a glance with Gu Mengyao, who was standing beside him. Both of them noticed the shock in each other’s hearts.
It appears that what couldn’t be found by searching everywhere has now appeared without any effort.
Is the woman who made Ruan Zhongjing fall in love at first sight this Eldest Senior Sister of the Tianshan Sect – Shen Xue???
Unlike Gu Yu and Gu Mengyao’s shock, Shen Xue maintained a solemn expression, clearly still worried about her master’s injury and very anxious that Gu Yu would refuse to go to the Tianshan Sect to save him.
She had no other choice this time, so she specifically came to Yang Family Village in Lian Town to seek Gu Yu’s help.
Placing her hopes on this rumored Divine Doctor Gu, Shen Xue did not want it all to be in vain.
“This is a handkerchief embroidered with Thousand-year Ice Silkworm silk. Please, Divine Doctor Gu, take a look!”
“No problem, no problem. If I had known it was you, things would have been simpler.”
“???”
When Shen Xue got closer and Gu Yu saw her white clothes and purple eyes, he was already certain that this was the woman Ruan Zhongjing fell in love with at first sight.
After Gu Yu spoke with emotion, Shen Xue looked at him with confusion, not understanding what Gu Yu’s sudden words meant?
What do you mean, “If I had known it was her???”
Gu Yu did not answer Shen Xue’s question. Instead, he directly reached out and took the handkerchief. As a chill was transmitted to his palm, a hint of surprise flashed in Gu Yu’s eyes. He did not expect such a magical thing to exist.
As expected of a fictional world, it is indeed very interesting!
However, to prevent being deceived, Gu Yu still took out a fire starter and burned it.
Upon seeing that the handkerchief was unaffected, he finally believed that Shen Xue had not lied to him.
Although Shen Xue is the person Ruan Zhongjing fell in love with at first sight, he still had to get the agreed-upon reward!
He considered himself merely a matchmaker, helping to connect people…
“It’s not impossible for me to save your master, but apart from the Thousand-year Ice Silkworm, you must also promise me one condition.”
“Divine Doctor Gu, please state it!”
“After curing your master, I want you to stay in Lian Town for three months.”
“I… I promise!”
Since the Tianshan Sect truly possessed what he desired, Gu Yu no longer hesitated. However, his subsequent words caused Shen Xue’s expression to change dramatically.
Asking her to stay in Lian Town for three months, did he want her to do something…
However, thinking of her critically injured master, Shen Xue immediately nodded.
Even giving up her body would not be enough to repay her master’s kindness in raising her!
When Gu Mengyao saw Shen Xue’s pale face, as a woman, she knew that Shen Xue had misunderstood… But it was also her little husband’s words that were too brief, and he didn’t think enough about how it would cause misunderstandings!
If it weren’t for her knowing about the marriage proposal from Ruan Zhongjing of Qingshan Academy, she would definitely have eaten a whole vat of sour vinegar.
“Yu, explain it clearly.”
“Ah? Ah! That, don’t misunderstand. The reason I asked you to stay in Lian Town is because one of my subordinates fell in love with you at first sight. I thought you two could try getting to know each other first… If you are compatible, you can be together. If you don’t like each other, after the three-month period, you can return to Tianshan.”
At first, Gu Yu did not expect to be misunderstood.
After all, he was just helping Ruan Zhongjing play matchmaker.
However, after hearing his little wife’s reminder and seeing Shen Xue’s aggrieved expression, Gu Yu immediately realized that his words had caused Shen Xue to misunderstand.
Subsequently, Gu Yu quickly explained, which caused Shen Xue’s aggrieved expression to quickly turn into surprise.
It seemed she did not expect that this was the reason she had to stay in Lian Town for three months.
Moreover, it also gave her the opportunity to choose.
“The person who fell in love with me at first sight? Since arriving in Lian Town, I have never taken off my veil in front of outsiders. How could he have… regarding me…”
Afterward, listening to Shen Xue’s question, Gu Yu also felt a bit awkward.
He couldn’t possibly say… that Ruan Zhongjing was attracted to your ethereal demeanor, which is why he fell in love with you at first sight!
If he said that, let alone Shen Xue, even he himself wouldn’t believe it.
However, Gu Yu didn’t need to say much. It would be better to let the two parties resolve it themselves!
“I’m not too sure either. After all, we just returned from out of town and heard about the news of someone looking to marry. It was a person named Ruan Zhongjing at Qingshan Academy in Lian Town. He looks quite handsome, you should have some impression.”
“…”
After Gu Yu mentioned Ruan Zhongjing, only a few simple words caused Shen Xue’s eyes to falter, and then she began to look evasive.
Seeing Shen Xue’s unusual reaction, Gu Yu and Gu Mengyao were surprised. They did not expect Shen Xue to have noticed Ruan Zhongjing!
This reaction clearly indicated that she knew him.
“Alright, although I am going to save your master, due to not returning home for a long time, I will rest for a day for now and set off tomorrow.”
“Okay! Tomorrow, I will come to pick up Divine Doctor Gu to go to Tianshan together.”
“By the way, my wife will also be going with me.”
Since the conditions had been agreed upon, Gu Yu didn’t say anything more and directly told Shen Xue to come and pick them up tomorrow.
As for why he wasn’t leaving immediately, Gu Yu thought of Zi Tan, who was lying in his spatial dimension, and decided to study her at home first!
He also needed to check the condition of the elves being soaked in the Space Spring Water.
