Chapter 640: Chapter 640

“Uncle Bai, I’m terribly sorry. Brother Wan Li has been poisoned, and I need to treat him. It may require a wait on your part,” Zhusha spoke with respect, but her gaze towards Mu Lingyun and Bai Yueru lacked any courtesy.

It was as if she wanted to inflict pain upon them.

Upon witnessing this, Bai Yueru moved closer to Mu Lingyun and quietly asked, “What is it, have you offended this young lady before?”

With a slight curl to her lips, Mu Lingyun laughed and said, “It’s the first time we’ve met. However, based on my reasoning, the young girl probably fancies that man called Wan Li, and thinks you’re here to steal him, which is why she’s not friendly to you!”

Mu Lingyun wasn’t making a wild guess with this statement.

Because in that past life, Zhusha had caused trouble for Bai Yueru over this very issue.

And she didn’t show her any good expressions.

It was only after Bai Yueru dealt with her several times that she started to restrain herself.

Bai Yueru: …

“Based on what you said, she’s even less friendly towards you, right?” Bai Yueru said.

After all, anyone could see that Mu Lingyun was more beautiful than she was.

“Not necessarily!” Mu Lingyun replied with a mysterious smile.

While the two were whispering, Bai Wei spoke up, “Since Wan Li requires treatment first, let’s go ahead with it. We can wait; it’s no trouble.”

At that moment, Wan Li spoke up, “Zhusha, don’t be ridiculous, step back!”

Upon hearing this, Zhusha looked at Wan Li in shock and said, “Brother Wan Li, what are you talking about?”

“I said, step back, and no treatment is needed today,” Wan Li reiterated solemnly.

“You…” Zhusha was stunned and had not expected Wan Li to speak to her this way. “Brother Wan Li, you… you can’t delay treating your injury any longer. I must treat you today. You can’t ask me to leave; you should ask them to leave, or have them wait!”

“Step back!” Wan Li frowned, casting a cold glance at Zhusha, his expression unfriendly.

Upon hearing this, Zhusha was completely taken aback.

She hadn’t anticipated that Wan Li would reprimand her for the sake of these two women.

“Brother Wan Li, let me tell you, I’m not someone you can summon or dismiss at your whim. If you won’t let me treat you, then don’t expect me to treat you in the future either. Are you sure about that?” Zhusha said, a little angrily.

Wan Li furrowed his brow but still spoke indifferently, “Step back!”

After hearing this, Zhusha stamped her foot and then ran off, crying.

Bai Wei looked on, his expression somewhat unsightly.

Mu Lingyun and Bai Yueru exchanged a glance, both equally perplexed.

They had just arrived and already caused a quarrel, feeling as if they had done something akin to seducing someone else’s husband.

“Do you think we should go and explain things to them later?” Bai Yueru whispered.

Mu Lingyun’s mouth twitched slightly, her voice also very low, “Even if you explain, do you think they will listen? Moreover, strictly speaking, this isn’t our business, right?”

Bai Yueru fell silent.

Indeed, they had just been standing there, doing nothing.

So the two of them stopped talking.

Meanwhile, Bai Wei started to speak with Wan Li.

“Wan Li, doing this… might it not be good? Why not treat your condition first? We can discuss our matter later?”

Wan Li glanced at Mu Lingyun and Bai Yueru, then looked at Bai Wei and said in a low voice, “How can I make the daughter of my master wait?”

He was only six or seven years old when he first joined this army.
