Chapter 2307: Chapter 2307: Looking for You to Treat Someone?

"Hmm?"

On the second floor, Lin Caisang had just stepped into her room when she heard the familiar voice from behind.

Earlier, when that girl struck up a conversation with her, Lin Caisang had already found it a bit odd.

And now, she was coming directly to find her?

"What do you need?"

"Well... Madam, are you an alchemist?" Dong’er hesitated for a moment before asking.

"Yes, what do you need?" Lin Caisang nodded and asked again.

"Here’s the thing: my mistress is pregnant, but she’s not comfortable seeking out a regular alchemist for an examination, so she sent me to find a trustworthy one to diagnose her pulse.

Would Madam be willing to do so?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Caisang blinked and almost burst into laughter.

Hadn’t she just met this girl? And now this girl thought she was a reliable person?

"Miss, we’ve just met, haven’t we? Could you tell me, exactly how do you define ’trustworthy’?"

She asked.

"Uh."

Dong’er was at a loss for words in front of Lin Caisang.

Admittedly, they had just met mere moments ago and had exchanged only a few words.

Yet, for some reason, Dong’er felt that this Madam standing before her was someone she could rely on.

"This might sound unbelievable, but I truly feel that Madam is a kind person, someone trustworthy. I just hope my intuition isn’t wrong."

She spoke to Lin Caisang with seriousness and resolve, choosing her words carefully.

Lin Caisang: "..."

Forgive her, but instead of finding it unbelievable, it felt more like a bolt from the blue!

"Haha, I admit, I am indeed quite kind. But, Miss, do you think I’m the kind of person who can be summoned with just a few casual words like this?"

"This..."

Once again, Dong’er was left speechless by her response.

Indeed, what right did she have to expect someone to accompany her based on just a few remarks?

The Madam had no way of knowing whether there would be danger involved.

Moreover...

Out on the streets earlier, so many people had clearly witnessed an alchemist being killed right before their eyes.

Even now, Dong’er could still imagine the bloodied scene lingering in her mind.

"Then how about this—tomorrow, I’ll bring my mistress here to see you personally? Meeting here at the guest house wouldn’t be too much of an issue."

She pondered and opted for a compromise. Since the Madam had already stated she wouldn’t go to the City Lord’s Mansion, the specifics of the meeting location would be up to her arrangements. A guest house seemed like the best option.

After all, there would be many people around, and countless distractions.

But who would have thought that the City Lord’s wife herself would leave her mansion and come to a guest house to request a pulse diagnosis?

"That works. I’ve been staying here all along." Lin Caisang nodded.

She reckoned that this girl’s mistress must be facing some difficult circumstances. If she couldn’t go to examine her, then surely she could lend her a helping hand if the mistress came instead.

At most, she’d have her husband stand guard by her side to ensure her safety.

...

"Someone’s come asking for you to see a patient?"

When Sui Zimo returned, he was utterly shocked to hear his wife’s words.

How long had he been gone? Barely an hour?

And yet his wife had already encountered someone seeking medical help, even pleading for treatment? Not only that—Sangsang refused to go, but the other party was willing to come to her instead?

This situation struck him as extremely odd.

"There was a killing in the street today—an alchemist." Lin Caisang explained.
