"Just like this? There are no other problems at all?"
Hearing Leng Wanqing say this, Xia Sanghuan, who had been silent all this time, casually retorted.
"Otherwise, what else do you want? Have your limb amputated?"
"You!"
Seeing that she showed no sign of repentance and even taunted her, Leng Wanqing was so angry that she couldn't speak.
"If you hadn't given me the poisonous herb, how could I have ended up like this!"
"Aren't you a self - proclaimed medical major? Are you using your knowledge to frame me?"
Hearing her words, Xia Sanghuan just innocently shrugged her hands.
"But the herb I found can really treat bruises. If you don't believe me, you can ask Doctor Bai to test it."
At this moment, Bai Jingxing also noticed the girl standing aside. Although she was the one being accused, there was no trace of panic on her face. Instead, she looked extremely calm.
"Sticking to this matter won't lead to any results."
"Since it's not a big deal, Wanqing, stop being so petty."
Leng Chuanjin's words broke the deadlock.
It seemed that he was trying to solve the problem, but in fact, he was just giving Xia Sanghuan an out.
When had he ever treated an outsider like this?
Bai Jingxing secretly glanced at him out of the corner of his eye, but was ignored by the man.
"You say I'm being petty?"
"Brother, it's not you who has these rashes. How can you..."
"Enough."
Leng Wanqing's endless pestering finally exhausted his patience. He really didn't have the energy to play house with a little girl.
He looked up and rubbed his temples.
"Tomorrow, I'll ask Wang Fu to investigate all the servants in the mansion. I'll also have someone clean up all the weeds in the back garden."
"Moreover, you ended up like this because you were being willful towards the guest. This time, I'll let it go because you're injured."
"Wanqing, don't let me down again."
Hearing what her elder brother said, she had no choice but to put forward one last request.
"Fine... but Doctor Bai must test whether the herb that stinky girl found can really treat bruises!"
Bai Jingxing said somewhat embarrassedly, "Second Miss, that's true, but there's no way to..."
Before he could finish his sentence, Xia Sanghuan walked over with a bowl of crushed herb paste.
"All the herbs I picked this afternoon are here."
"Test it."
"Oh, right. Don't worry that I might switch it halfway. I've left it there since I applied the medicine to Second Miss this afternoon. I've been staying in my bedroom during that time."
Her last words left Leng Wanqing speechless, leaving her with no reason to continue making trouble.
Leng Chuanjin nodded at Bai Jingxing. Understanding his meaning, Bai Jingxing stepped forward and tested the ingredients of the herb paste.
After a few minutes, the result came out.
Before he could speak, Xia Sanghuan said, "Doctor Bai, I'm right, aren't I? This herb can really treat sprains."
Her eyes were very bright as she stared steadily at him.
Looking into her eyes, he swallowed the unnecessary words.
"Yes... Miss Xia is right."
All the results cleared her of the so - called "crime", leaving no handle for others to grasp.
However, Leng Chuanjin, who was standing aside, took everything in.
Seeing her and his family doctor exchanging looks right in front of him made him feel a sense of annoyance deep in his heart.
"Since the results are out, there's no need to say more."
"It's getting late. It's time to rest."
"This kind of thing is only allowed to happen this once. If it happens again, I won't be so easy - going."
Then, he said to Bai Jingxing, who was packing up his medical kit and about to go home from work, "You, come with me."
So Bai Jingxing followed him to the study with a long face.
After entering the study, he didn't beat around the bush and directly asked, "That herb paste isn't as safe as you said, is it?"
Bai Jingxing thought Leng Chuanjin had called him in for no good reason, but unexpectedly, there was something serious to ask.
He put away his careless expression and replied, "Yes."
"It's true that this herb can treat sprains, but it can't be used alone."
"It must be mixed with another herb to achieve the therapeutic effect. Otherwise, it's just an ordinary poisonous herb that can cause rashes on human skin."
"Fortunately, its toxicity isn't very strong. Otherwise, Second Miss's skin there might have become a mess."
After listening to his explanation, Leng Chuanjin pondered for a moment.
"Then why didn't you say so outside?"
Feeling his slightly dissatisfied look, Bai Jingxing shrugged helplessly.
"What can I do, Young Master Leng? If it were you facing that little girl at that time, you would have made the same choice as me."
"Her eyes have a special magic."
After this conversation, he had roughly understood the whole thing.
However, just thinking about the scene where the doctor and Xia Sanghuan were "flirting" in front of him made him feel a nameless anger.
So Bai Jingxing was "thrown" out of the Leng family's mansion like a used tool.
Before going to bed, when he passed by the living room, he saw Xia Sanghuan trying to apply ointment to the immobile Leng Wanqing, but was fiercely rejected by her.
She clearly hated her younger sister so much. Why would she do such a thing?
He saw her shrug, as if not caring about Leng Wanqing's reaction. She threw the ointment back on the sofa and then turned around and went upstairs.
Before leaving, she even looked back and said something to Leng Wanqing, who was lying on the sofa struggling to apply the ointment to herself.
Her voice was rather soft, probably afraid of being heard by him.
But judging from her lip - reading, the general meaning was "If you try to make things difficult for me again next time, you'll get an even more excessive retaliation from me."
After saying that, she didn't care about the killing look in the Leng family's second miss's eyes and went straight back to her room.
This scene seemed to be the last piece of the puzzle for the farce of the day.
Leng Chuanjin couldn't help but think that maybe in the places he couldn't see, she had suffered a lot of grievances in the Leng family.
After all, she was living under someone else's roof. Leng Wanqing didn't like her on a daily basis.
She had also spent the first eighteen years in her adoptive father's family. Now that she had just been recognized, she was forced to come and live in his house because of that bastard fourth brother from the Fu family.
It was time to send his troublesome younger sister to school as soon as possible.
Although it was still a rest day the next day, Leng Chuanjin went to work as usual.
According to the butler, once he got busy, he wouldn't give himself a vacation. Even if the employees didn't work overtime, he would still dutifully go to the company to handle affairs.
Moreover, he had had this habit since he was just an adult.
