Chapter 20: Di Beichen’s Investigation
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
For quite a while, even though the crowd stood before the Divine Clinic without leaving, no one walked in.
All of them were waiting for the first guinea pig to appear but that person had yet to appear for a long time.
The scene at present was within Baili Hongzhuang’s expectations. In fact, when she was preparing to open the clinic, she had already expected such a result.
After the successful opening of the clinic, Ji Wenbin returned to Wan Yao Fang. He was a shopkeeper and he had to take care of his business.
“The first three patients are treated for free. Why isn’t anyone going in?”
Among the crowd, a man who had just arrived at the entrance could not help but ask with curiosity, when he saw everyone standing at the entrance.
“The physician is a teenage girl with no elder by her side. Who would dare to be diagnosed by her? What if something goes wrong, wouldn’t it be very unlucky?”
“Sigh, I’m afraid it’s just the farce of a rich young lady. We should leave!”
Everyone shook their heads in succession and the Divine Clinic entrance that was previously bustling with activity, gradually become empty. Alas, no one was willing to accompany a young lady to stage a farce.
Baili Hongzhuang’s expression was still one of indifference when she saw the scene. Her target customers were high officials and nobles, as they were the only ones who could fork out sufficient remuneration.
She did not have much time to practice her medical skills and she opened this clinic to pave a road for her cultivation. Therefore, she did not care whether ordinary people visited or not.
However, a figure in the crowd looked at Baili Hongzhuang for quite some time and left in haste after confirming her identity.
Prince Chen’s Estate.
“You’re saying, Baili Hongzhuang opened a Divine Clinic?” Interest appeared on a peerlessly handsome and beautiful face. Di Beichen played around with the ring on his hand and looked at Heimu.
Heimu nodded in all seriousness. “However, due to Miss Baili Hongzhuang’s age, she did not seem too convincing and so no patients visited.”
Di Beichen had a leisurely attitude and he was not surprised at the news. “How was Baili Hongzhuang’s reaction?”
“Very indifferent.” Heimu thought for a moment and sized up Di Beichen in front of him. “It’s similar to little master’s current expression.”
His eyes as deep as the sea flickered with a bluish-purple glint. Di Beichen paused for a moment before he said, “This Baili Hongzhuang is completely different compared to her past self. Have you found out what happened to her over the years?”
“Based on the information I found, Baili Hongzhuang started to change after her attempted suicide. It is as if she has changed into another person,” Heimu said in doubt.
“If it was not a change of person, then it’s because she has been hiding her true self all these years.” Di Beichen’s eyes narrowed. “Could it be that all this concealment was just to cancel the engagement with Xuan Yuanhuan?”
The idea of a change of person only existed in theory but the possibility was extremely low. As such, the only remaining possibility was concealment.
Baili Hongzhuang only started to change after the annulment of her engagement. Other than that, there was no other reason.
Heimu was startled. It has always been Xuan Yuanhuan who was dissatisfied with the engagement. Could it be that Miss Baili also hated it?
“Heimu, follow me to the Divine Clinic.” Di Beichen faintly smiled. “I should go and check up on how my wife is doing.”
Heimu, who was already startled, widened his eyes when he heard what Di Beichen said. He even had the urge to slap himself to determine if he was hallucinating. Was that something his little master could have said?
….
“Master, there has not been a single patient.” Blackie sat on the table and its round, large eyes were filled with distress.
It was looking forward to the booming business of the clinic so that it could enjoy meat and good food while following its master. But right now, it was afraid that even its Master would starve.
