Chapter 547: Chapter 549 Are You Sure?

After a long while, Pei Huaian reluctantly let go of her, their lips and teeth clinging together, his tongue tracing the outline of her lips.

His fingertips caressed Shao He’s flushed cheeks, his gaze deep and hazy, "There’s still half a month, I can wait."

"Are you sure?" Shao He was startled.

"Mm." Pei Huaian nodded, speaking earnestly.

Shao He’s heart was filled with warmth, and she was surprised that Pei Huaian could restrain himself at the critical moment.

"I’m going to take a cold shower." Pei Huaian left hurriedly, afraid that if he stayed, he would be consumed by fire.

Qingxia, who had been waiting outside the door, saw the departing figure enter the room, and upon seeing the properly dressed person, asked in astonishment, "Miss, did you and the Crown Prince..."

"Nothing happened between us," Shao He said, her face flushing with embarrassment.

Qingxia furrowed her brow and spoke in a low voice, "How could this be, could it be that the Crown Prince is incompetent?"

"What did you say?" Shao He hadn’t heard what she had been muttering.

Qingxia snapped back to reality, "Nothing, nothing at all."

By evening, Ah Mo, seeing the person standing by the window, reported, "Master, everything has been investigated thoroughly. It was the Second Prince, the brothel Oiran is also his person, and the medicine given to the Fourth Prince was not poisonous but would just make one’s body weaker and weaker, unable to perform the acts of a man."

"It seems they’re really fighting like dogs, handing all the evidence over to the Minister of Justice."

Pei Huaian knew that Pei Chengye was restless and had always been on guard against him and never expected that he would use all his power and resources against Pei Jingyi.

Early the next day, as usual, Shao He went to Anji Hall. As soon as she alighted from her carriage, a maid in a hurry approached her.

"Doctor Shao, my lady requests your presence at our mansion to treat the young master."

Shao He had an excellent memory and recognized at a glance that this maid was from the Jiang Family, and the young master should be the child Jiang Zhou had secretly given birth to.

She hesitated for a moment, especially after hearing Father Jiang’s words last time, fearing even more that the Jiang Family might silence people by killing them.

Wouldn’t she be walking right into the tiger’s den, becoming the sacrificial lamb?

"Miss, this servant feels that there’s something fishy about this whole affair."

"What’s fishy about it?"

"The Jiang Family has always looked down upon female doctors like us. Why now do they repeatedly ask for you to treat someone?" Qingxia expressed her concern anxiously.

Shao He chuckled softly, "You make a good point, but how should I refuse them?"

"Miss, you don’t want to go?" Qingxia asked, surprised.

Shao He shook her head, "Indeed, I don’t."

The maid pleaded desperately, "Doctor Shao, please hurry and come with me. It’s a matter of life and death!"

As Shao He was considering, the maid suddenly knelt down, "I beg you, please save our young master, I’m begging you."

She banged her forehead heavily on the ground repeatedly, attracting more and more onlookers who stopped to watch.

"You’re clearly coercing her, my young lady has other patients to see," Qingxia said angrily.

The maid lifted her head, blood from the cut on her forehead flowing down past her eyes.

"This servant has heard of Doctor Shao’s kindness and benevolence. Surely you won’t stand by and watch someone die."

Shao He eyed her for a long while and then a cold smile curled up on her lips. If she refused to go today, she would be labelled as cruel and arrogant.

And that would certainly affect Pei Huaian. She was no longer just a doctor but the Crown Princess Consort as well, and every move she made was under scrutiny.

The bystanders started to murmur among themselves.

"What is Doctor Shao thinking? This is a matter of life and death; is she going to stand by and do nothing?"

"Indeed, the poor maid is pleading so desperately; the illness must be severe."

"Ah, she’s not just a doctor now but also the Crown Princess Consort, who can convince her to treat someone?"

As Qingxia was about to argue with them, Shao He grabbed her wrist, "Don’t be rash."

"Since it’s a matter of life and death, then get up quickly and lead the way."

The maid looked up in surprise, the method her lady taught her really worked.

"Miss, the Jiang Family obviously has ill intentions, should we notify the Crown Prince?" Qingxia muttered quietly.

"There’s no need." Shao He didn’t want to distract Pei Huaian, as she could handle this matter herself.

Qingxia sighed resignedly and followed behind Shao He.

At the Jiang Mansion, Lady Jiang paced back and forth, her face anxious.

"Madam, please have a seat for a while. The young master will surely be safe," the maid counseled.

Lady Jiang glared at her, scolding, "What do you know? If anything goes wrong, do you know what the consequences will be?"

This was the only person who could control Xia Zhaoshun. Without him, the safety of the Jiang Family would not be considered by Xia Zhaoshun anymore.

"Madam, please calm down," the maid urged, bowing her head.

Just then, Shao He arrived belatedly, and Lady Jiang quickly greeted her, respectfully calling out, "Doctor Shao, you’ve finally come."

Shao He greeted with a slight bow, "Lady Jiang."

Upon seeing this, Lady Jiang immediately rose to help her up, smiling affectionately, "Please, have a seat. No need for formalities."

"Thank you, Lady Jiang," Shao He replied, taking a seat.

She observed Lady Jiang, who appeared distressed with dark circles under her eyes, likely from lack of sleep.

"Quickly bring the young master over," Lady Jiang ordered the maids behind her.

The maid rushed out hastily, and soon returned, carrying a boy in her arms.

The little boy’s large eyes were extremely beautiful, with round cheeks and a pair of little dimples. Anyone who saw him would take a liking to him.
