Chapter 246 - 245: Beware of Undeserved Misfortune
Qin Liuxi finished the acupuncture and threading, admiring the neat suture, her lips curving into a smile: "Truly beautiful."
Tang Xiucai, who was already pale as if fished out of water, rolled his eyes at these words and thoroughly fainted.
Buqiu, the one supporting him, looked at Qin Liuxi with ever-growing terror; she seemed to him like a demon.
Seeing Tang Xiucai pass out, Qin Liuxi’s smile faded, and she closed her medicine box, feeling displeased.
"Daoist, Daoist, he, what should we do about this?" Scholar Nian stuttered.
Qin Liuxi stood up: "However he came, that’s how he’ll leave, right? There, he was so boisterously barking just now, wasn’t he? Let him carry his good friend back; surely, that’s not an issue?"
Mr. Lai, pointed at by her, wanted to curse, but, catching sight of Mu Xi and the guards behind him, he dared not.
"How so? Surely it can’t be said that he was injured at my Daoist Temple, and I have to provide a carriage to send him back and add medical expenses on top?" Qin Liuxi sneered: "The Daoist Temple is a sacred place, but if someone tries to swindle us, they better see if they’re fated to enjoy such fortune."
Mu Xi giggled: "Which one of you make sure to remember their faces for the young master; aren’t they all going to take part in the grace examination? They are scholars, yet they resort to fraud."
Hearing this, the scholars’ faces changed, and they quickly covered their faces with their sleeves.
Their future prospects were at stake; none dared to gamble.
