The Doctress With Healing Hands: Your Highness, Please Behave Yourself Chapter 30

The a.s.sa.s.sinating Squad

To claim that she was not scared would be a lie, but the current situation left her no time to think much .  

Her back pressed hard against Zhao Yuchen’s chest, and her hands tightly clutched the horse reins . A strong arm firmly held her from behind, comforting her, “Don’t worry . Whatever it takes, I won’t let you get even the slightest hurt . I promise . ”

Bai Qingqing’s heart plunged . In darkness, she scolded, “No! What you need to promise me is to make sure that both of us return to the capital safe and sound, whatever it takes . ”

Although she was not afraid of death, at this moment, she felt a horrible air of death approaching them step by step .

Zhao Yuchen sensed the body was shaking involuntarily in his arms and he tightened his arms around her waist, “Okay, I promise . ”

“Yuchen…” She sounded dejected and helpless, displaying ghosts of despair . Yet, the calling momentarily woke up the man’s years of memory .

Long had it been that he heard his beloved one calling his name in such a soft voice .

Yuchen…

In this world, only Su Ruoqing was eligible and dared to call his name .

His heart trembled, replying solemnly, “Yes, I’m right here!”

“If we’re lucky to survive this, I’ll marry you again after we get back to the capital . ”

When she said “marry again” in a tone of promise, Zhao Yuchen instantly felt sore in his nose and his heart full of excitement and expectation .

She admitted it! She finally admitted it!

At this moment, his happiness was beyond description . Even merely in order to fulfill this promise, he must survive the incident and take her back home .

Yet, the a.s.sa.s.sinating squad behind them didn’t want their dream to come true . After the s.h.i.+eld formed by Minghao and other guards was broken, a large number of a.s.sa.s.sins swarmed up .

Bai Qingqing didn’t have to glance back to know that the current situation was terrible for them .

In the midst of chaos, she felt the sudden loosening of the arms around her waist .

At once, she came to realization, and just as she turned around to check him, she heard a painful sigh near her ear .

The next moment, she saw Zhao Yuchen, who had been holding her tightly, fell off the horse out of control .   

She screamed out of fear . In a fraction of a second, the horse under her went crazy and suddenly raised the hind legs up high . Before Bai Qingqing got the chance to take hold of the reins, she was shaken off the horseback .

Her tiny body rolled many times on the ground until there came a heavy blow of pain in her forehead . Meanwhile, all the chaotic thoughts churning in her mind stopped at that moment .

Bai Qingqing didn’t know how long she had pa.s.sed out . When she woke up in the darkness, she found herself at a strange place .

There were tables and chairs, doors and windows . Glancing around, she found the place was immaculately decorated .

What was this place?

What had happened to her?

She could feel the pain in every part of her body . Most unexpected was that her right wrist was entirely powerless .

She tried to move for a few times and finally came to an undesirable conclusion that there were signs of fracture in her right wrist .

“Miss, you wake up finally . ”

An unfamiliar but pleasing voice suddenly rang from not afar .

Bai Qingqing came to her senses at once . She looked in the direction where the sound came, and almost shrieked .

Concentrating too much to her wounded body just now, she barely noticed there was a person sitting in the middle of the large room .

To be more precise, the one sitting over there was a young good-looking guy who was slowly wiping a long sword .

Of course, this wasn’t enough to make Bai Qingqing shriek .

What she couldn’t believe was that the young good-looking man was someone she knew .

It was fair to say that she would never forget that face even if he turned into ashes .

Zhao Yuting!

That was the ninth prince of the Yan Kingdom, and her fiancé before she was fifteen . After she took her own life in the last life, this man was granted an ent.i.tled land out of the capital, and ever since then, disappeared from her world .

However, why did he show up here?

So this place was his mansion?

If her memory didn’t fail her, the place of Zhao Yuting’s entiled land was Fengyang, which was thousands of miles away from the capital .

An intoxicating smile touched the man’s lips when he found she stared at him in shock .

He slowly put down the long sword, standing up and walking to her bed, his voice soft, “Are you okay miss?”

Bai Qingqing subconsciously moved aback, obviously resisting and escaping from him .

Although this man was once her fiancé in her last life, her impression of him was not so good .

In fact, the reason why she had been engaged with Zhao Yuting was their mothers were relatives .

When she was a young girl, too young to have memory, her mother always took her to visit the imperial palace .

The cousin of her mother was none other than Zhao Yuting’s birth mother in the imperial palace .

Zhao Yuting was one year older than her, known as the n.o.ble ninth prince in the imperial palace .

Yet, though this man was good-looking with superficial courtesy, he was too scheming and always secretly bullied the then young Su Ruoqing when no one noticed .

Once, she accidently witnessed him, out of anger, pus.h.i.+ng a young eunuch into the lake and watching him drown . Just as she turned around to run away, Zhao Yuting caught her .

At that time, she was so frightened, crying and begging for his mercy and promising that she wouldn’t tell a living soul what she had seen .

However, Zhao Yuting claimed that the way to gain his trust was easy, that was to marry him when she grew up . Only when the two became a couple and formed a family could he believe that she wouldn’t sell him out .

Though at that time Su Ruoqing didn’t want to make that kind of promise to him at all, she was too young and almost scared to death by Zhao Yuting’s horrible behaviors .

Intimidated and tempted by him, she finally had to agree to his proposal .

Not long after, Zhao Yuting mentioned to his birth mother that when he grew up, he wanted to marry the daughter of scholar Su .

Somehow, this joke-like proposal was known to the late emperor .

The late emperor valued the Cabinet Scholar Su very much . Once he knew that his youngest son had a crush on scholar Su’s daughter, he quickly drafted an imperial edict to make an engagement between the two children .

However, Su Ruoqing didn’t wish to marry Zhao Yuting .

Others only knew that Zhao Yuchen took away his brother’s fiancé . They criticized and cursed him .

But they never thought about it . If she really liked Zhao Yuting, why did she readily say yes to Zhao Yuchen to become the then crown princess regardless of the world’s opinion?

This had been something buried deep down her heart and never even been mentioned to Zhao Yuchen .

In retrospect, if she had talked about this with Zhao Yuchen, the tragedy would never have happened .

All in all, she should also be held responsible for Zhao Yuchen’s suspicion and her later suicide .

These past stories happened so long ago, so long that she believed she wouldn’t meet Zhao Yuting again in this life .

She didn’t expect that after rebirth, she met this man again like this .

In the face of Zhao Yuting’s earnest caring, Bai Qingqing tried hard to act normal .

“Young lord, may I ask where is this place? What happened to me?”

“This is Red-Crowned Crane Manor, three hundred miles away from the capital . You were injured and accidentally discovered by me . I saw you were still alive, so I took you back to my house . You’ve been pa.s.sed out for two days .

When you were in a coma, I’ve sent for a doctor to check your injury . Expect for bruises, the most serious one is on your right wrist and ankle . There are signs of fracture .

But don’t worry, the doctor said as long as you take medicine on time, the fracture parts will soon be cured . ”

But for knowing Zhao Yuting’s evil side since she was young, Bai Qingqing at present almost regarded this good-looking man with gentle smiles as an extraordinary n.o.ble gentleman .

Unfortunately, Zhao Yuting hadn’t impressed her in a good way .

She had been bullied and pranked by him during the years when she was his fiancé .

For many times, she also learnt from others that the young ninth princess always visited brothels under cover, in plain clothes .

Because of his pretty appearance and generosity, those prost.i.tutes in brothels welcomed him in swarming groups .

The a.s.sa.s.sinating Squad.

To claim that she was not scared would be a lie, but the current situation left her no time to think much .  .
