Chapter 139: The Unpaid Patient

Yue Mingxuan reached out his hand and slapped Xi Yu on the head. "Can you stop screaming like someone being slaughtered? There are other patients in our clinic."

Xi Yu was lying face down on the treatment table and when he suddenly being slapped on the head, he said angrily, "Why did you hit me?"

This little guy actually dared to slap his head.

The last person who dared to do that already had grass growing tall on his grave.

If it were not because Yue Mingxuan was a man acting as a healer, Xi Yu would have already gotten up and killed him.

Seeing that Xi Yu stopped screaming after that slap, Yue Mingxuan was quite satisfied and continued applying alcohol to Xi Yu’s back.

This alcohol had been refined many times by a master brewer from the west side of the city at Yue Mingxuan’s request.

Even if it was not eighty proof, it was at least ninety.

In this regard, he had not treated Xi Yu badly at all.

Alcohol was an excellent disinfectant for wounds and since he had developed it, it had not been used on anyone before.

Of course, if Yue Mingxuan had not secretly sprinkled a handful of salt into it, the pain from the alcohol alone would not have been enough to make a battle-hardened assassin scream like a pig being killed.

Amid Xi Yu’s ear piercing cries, Yue Mingxuan finished disinfecting the wound on his back.

The healing of Xi Yu’s wound was better than expected.

There was no redness or pus.

At this rate, the stitches could be removed in four or five days.

After finishing the disinfection, Yue Mingxuan went to the back courtyard of the clinic, drew a basin of well water, and washed his hands.

When he turned around, he found Xi Yu standing behind him.

He was draped in an outer robe and looking at him with a half-smile that was not quite a smile.

Ever since Yue Mingxuan learned that the sword wound on Xi Yu’s back had been caused by Shang Qinghua, he felt more at ease when facing Xi Yu.

Xi Yu would not bring that troublesome big devil here, so there was nothing to fear.

Although Yue Mingxuan often thought about kicking Xi Yu out if he refused to pay the consultation fee, when truly faced with someone who had no money, he would still do his best to save them.

This was the medical ethics he upheld as a doctor.

Seeing that Xi Yu did not speak, Yue Mingxuan picked up the basin and was about to return to his resting room.

However, Xi Yu suddenly flashed forward and blocked his path.

Xi Yu truly felt a few points of curiosity toward the person in front of him.

This Ger had strange and unusual medical skills, a personality that valued money greatly, and that sharp smelling liquid that carried the scent of strong liquor yet was clearly not wine.

On top of that, Yue Mingxuan also had a relationship with Shang Qinghua that could not be clearly explained no matter how one tried.

Xi Yu stepped forward two paces and lightly lifted Yue Mingxuan’s chin with his finger in a teasing manner.

The skin felt warm and smooth, like fine white jade.

This made Xi Yu even more certain that the Ger before him was no ordinary person.

"Who exactly are you?" he asked.

Yue Mingxuan did not hesitate at all.

He immediately slapped Xi Yu’s hand away.

In this lifetime, his body was not considered short, but it was also not particularly tall.

Unfortunately, every man he had met so far was taller than him.

Now even a third rate assassin dared to treat him like this.

It was truly unbearable.

"You eat my food, live under my roof, and get treated by me without paying medical fees, and now you dare ask who I am?" Yue Mingxuan snapped. "Even if I were a notorious bandit, right now I am still the one feeding and supporting you."

After being scolded so sharply by Yue Mingxuan, Xi Yu was not angry at all.

Instead, a playful smile appeared on his face.

This Ger was truly interesting.

He did not know where Shang Qinghua had found such a person.

If it were any other person being treated like this, they would either be shy or furious.

Yet Yue Mingxuan only cared about the money he was owed.

Could it be that he was very short on money?

Thinking of how he himself once spent huge sums of money just to please a courtesan, Xi Yu shook his head.

Shang Qinghua really was rather stingy toward his own person.

Yue Mingxuan had no idea that Xi Yu’s thoughts had already drifted far away.

He said impatiently, "Please move aside. I need to go back."

"I say, your man is really far too stingy with you," Xi Yu blurted out for no clear reason when he saw Yue Mingxuan about to leave. "He even lets you show your face outside and work as a doctor to earn money. I really didn’t expect him to be this kind of person."

When You Mingxuan heard Xi Yu say this, he slowly and stiffly turned his head.

He was Shang Qinghua’s man?

Since when did he himself not know that?

Could it be that getting injured on the back really affected a person’s brain?

"Tell me," Yue Mingxuan said, "on what grounds do you think he’s my man?" 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

"Isn’t that the case?" Xi Yu took two steps forward and completely covered Yue Mingxuan with his shadow. "If you weren’t, why would you react so strongly whenever his name is mentioned? You would rather give up one hundred taels of gold than go see him."

No matter how one looked at it, it seemed exactly like a couple who had a quarrel.

It really seemed necessary to prescribe some medicine for treating the brain to this man in front of him.
