Chapter 157: Chapter 157 Magnanimous Gentleman(5)_1

Cai Wei exclaimed in shock: "He’s nearly frozen solid. Can he survive another two to three hours?"

Old Turtle calmly replied: "Don’t worry, he won’t die. Although he’ll suffer a bit and will fall seriously ill after the poison is neutralized, he will be desire-free for the next two to three years."

"Alright then!"

Relieved, Cai Wei tucked the brocade quilt tighter around his body.

Huo Yuan lay quietly in a coma, his handsome face pale as paper without a trace of blood, making a fitting analogy for a ’quietly handsome man’. Although he wasn’t as stunningly beautiful as that evildoer, he was undeniably handsome. After all, she has only seen a man as stunning as that evildoer twice in her two lifetimes!

At this moment, Cai Wei truly admires Huo Yuan’s righteousness and sincerity. Despite his agony after being poisoned, he rushed to save her, showing that he is a righteous and kind-hearted person. He chose to torment himself with a knife rather than violate her, making him a magnanimous gentleman. Such a man is worth befriending and saving!

"Young Master, we have arrived!"

The carriage halted. The coachman respectfully addressed the interior of the carriage.

Cai Wei lifted the curtain and ordered the coachman: "Go get two shopkeepers from Baohe Hall to help move Young Master Huo inside."

The coachman was stunned. When they set off, the young master was carrying the girl, how did it end up with the young girl being fine, and the young master fainting!

"What are you waiting for?" Seeing him dazed, Cai Wei raised her voice in urgency.

"Uh, yes, yes, I’ll go right away."

Hurriedly nodding his head, the coachman ran towards Baohe Hall.

He couldn’t and didn’t dare to ignore this girl’s command.

As a longtime coachman to Young Master Huo, this was the first time he saw his young master bring a girl onto his carriage, moreover, carrying her! He witnessed the young master’s anxiety at the time, it appears that this girl holds a special status to the young master, she might even be the future young madam. He has to be alert and serve her well!

Huo Yuan was moved into the Medical Center and as soon as he was settled on the bed, there was chaos outside. A group of runners from the yamen, carrying water-fire sticks, came in shouting.

"All the doctors of the Baohe Hall listen up, the County Magistrate has commanded all of you to take external wound medicine and burn medicine and follow us!"

The consulting doctors in Baohe Hall looked at each other, one stood up cautiously and asked: "May I know, sir, why the County Magistrate wants all of us at his place? There are many patients waiting for treatment here. Could some of us stay and treat the patients while the others accompany you to see the County Magistrate?"

The yamen runner berated: "Stop your damn fussing. When the county grandee invites you, you have to go. If he invites you, would you like to go or not?"

After saying this, he rudely waved the water-fire stick in his hand.

The elderly doctor closed his mouth in reticence, bowed apologetically to the patients queueing in line, and quietly packed up his medicine box. He followed the yamen runners along with everyone else.

"Ah, let’s go, we the common folk can’t argue with the County Grandee. We’ll have to return tomorrow for treatment."

An old man with a hunched back sighed helplessly and walked away.

Seeing all the doctors leaving, the remaining patients had no choice but to leave as well.

Cai Wei called for a young shopkeeper from the Baohe Hall and instructed him to find a clean room in the backyard, prepare a charcoal fire, and move Huo Yuan there first. They would wait for the doctor to return.

The young shopkeeper happily accepted the broken silver Cai Wei offered as a tip and hurriedly left to carry out her orders.

Cai Wei’s thought was, since the poison in Huo Yuan’s body is not yet neutralized, it’s not suitable for him to endure the hardship of travel. Since he has already taken the detoxification medicine, he might as well rest at the clinic till the medicine’s effect wears off in two hours, and they can then decide what to do next!
