Mesmerizing Ghost Doctor

"Little Jiu, you're finally back. How was it? Did he really go to Peach Blossom Ridge?" Guan Xilin asked. As soon as he had spoken, he saw someone following behind Feng Jiu, and when he took a closer look, he was startled: "It's you?"

Yi Xiuran nodded slightly as a greeting to him. In actual fact, he knew most of the people around Feng Jiu. 

"Elder Brother, don't worry. It's fine." She smiled, then asked: "Have you been waiting here this whole time?"

"Yes, I was worried that something would happen if the two of them met and so I felt uneasy. That's why I haven't gone home yet." Guan Xilin replied. 

Upon hearing this, Feng Jiu said: "Then why don't you go and have a look first? Although our manors are close by, you can't stay here all day now that sister-in-law is looking after the children."

"I was going to go home to take a look. Since you said that everything is fine, I will go home first and come back later." Having said that, he nodded at Yi Xiuran and left. 

"Master." Leng Hua came over from not far away, and after bowing to Feng Jiu, his eyes fell onto Yi Xiuran and he smiled warmly: "Young Master Yi."

Yi Xiuran looked at him and when he saw that Leng Hua's strength was higher than his, he couldn't help but whisper in astonishment: "How did your strength improve so fast?"

Upon hearing this, Leng Hua smiled warmly and said: "Because my Master is the Ghost Doctor."

A simple sentence with endless meanings. 

Because his Master was the Ghost Doctor, his strength had improved so fast, and because his Master was the Ghost Doctor, there was also pride in his voice when he said those words. 

A complicated expression flashed across Yi Xiuran's face when he heard those words. Yes of course! They are Feng Jiu's subordinates, how could they be ordinary?

"Leng Hua, go to the kitchen and tell them to prepare a few side dishes and bring them to the garden. I'm going to treat him to some wine." Feng Jiu said and motioned for him to go.

"Yes." Leng Hua responded and bowed slightly, then he left. 

Feng Jiu brought Yi Xiuran to the garden. Not long after the two of them had sat down, Du Fan came in with a few people. When he saw Feng Jiu in the garden pavilion, Du Fan called out with a smile: "Master, Young Master Gu is here."

Feng Jiu was startled, and when she looked up, she saw Gu Xiangyi standing next to Du Fan. She smiled upon seeing him and asked: "Why are you here? Are the affairs of your family clan settled?"

Gu Xiangyi stepped forward and saluted, then he said: "Everything in the family clan has been dealt with, some matters are being decided by my Father. I know that you are here preparing for your wedding, so I thought I would come over to see if there is anything I can help you with."

"It's good that you're here." Feng Jiu said with a smile: "Sit down! This is Yi Xiuran, he is also here for the wedding!"

After they had exchanged pleasantries, they sat down and chatted, and Du Fan retreated. Not long after, a servant girl brought the wine and side dishes to them. At dusk, when Feng Jiu saw that the both of them were a little tipsy, she instructed someone to take them to rest. 

Back in the courtyard, she asked someone to prepare water for her to take a bath. She leaned back lazily in the bath and closed her eyes. When she heard the sound of the door being pushed open from the outside, she said: "Leng Shuang, the water is getting cold. Bring some hot water in."

However, after she had spoken, she didn't hear Leng Shuang's voice. She felt that something was wrong and looked back immediately…
