Reborn As Divine Doctor to Rule the World-Chapter 101 - 102 Bah, Scum
Chapter 101: Chapter 102 Bah, Scum
Old Madam Chu, upon seeing her, immediately revealed a broad smile and incessantly inquired about her recent circumstances in the background.
Seeing Old Madam Chu so attentive, Shao He couldn’t help but recall the miserable days the original host had spent in the mansion.
“What on earth does Old Madam want to do?” Shao He didn’t believe that Old Madam Chu genuinely cared about her, perhaps she had a bit of sincerity towards the child, but towards her it was definitely feigned.
Old Madam Chu explained with a smile, “I know I did many things wrong before. From now on, I will treat you well. Let’s bring the child back to the Marquis’s Mansion. Even if you still harbor resentment towards Yuyu in your heart, you can first stay in the mansion.”
Nanny Xu, hearing these words, found it hard to maintain her stance. If Old Madam truly brought Shao He back to the mansion, the Marquis would likely be furious.
She hoped Old Madam wouldn’t make a foolish mistake, but after being fiercely glared at by Old Madam, she immediately fell silent.
...
Shao He scoffed, “Old Madam must be joking. I am neither kin nor kindred to you, how could I possibly live in the Marquis’s Mansion with you!”
“You…”
Old Madam Chu hadn’t expected Shao He to dare to talk back to her, and with such a terrible attitude, completely unlike her usual self.
She, enraged, slammed the table and scolded, “Do you really want to see me dead before you’d be satisfied?”
Shao He remained indifferent, yet she retorted sarcastically, “Old Madam must be joking. You are the esteemed Old Madam Chu, who could threaten you? Besides, how could a lone girl like me cause you any distress?”
Seeing this, Old Madam Chu felt so angry that her chest hurt, her face pale, and sweat covered her forehead.
Shao Hean soothed, “Old Madam, do not be angry, taking care of your health is what’s most important.”
As she spoke, she reached out to check Old Madam Chu’s pulse, and after a moment diagnosed, “Old Madam is just feeling dizzy from strong emotions, nothing else.”
“I’m fine,” Old Madam waved her hand.
Shao He withdrew her hand and said with a smile, “Since you feel fine, you’d better leave quickly. After all, you are quite old; a mishap here would greatly affect the Chu family. We can’t have that, lest Chu Yu comes looking for me again.”
Although her tone was gentle, the implication was not worry for Old Madam’s health but fear of her encountering an accident there.
Old Madam Chu was choked off, she took a deep breath, holding back her anger she said, “I want to take you back to the mansion, and you’re unwilling?”
“Unwilling,” Shao He answered without hesitation. She looked directly at Old Madam Chu and slowly, yet clearly, stated, “I have completely separated from the Marquis Pingnan’s Mansion. Now, I have already departed from the Chu family. Why do you bother coming to find me again?”
“You… you dare to say such things. Yuyu has been misled into making so many mistakes, why can’t you understand him?”
Shao He narrowed her eyes dangerously, and said in a low voice, “Understand what? Understand his desire to kill me and the child? Pah, scum!”
“You…”
“Old Madam is frail and needs rest. Please, nanny, hurry and take Old Madam back to rest,” said Shao He blandly, casting a final glance at Old Madam Chu, unwilling to say more.
“Even if you don’t think of yourself, you should consider my innocent great-grandson! Are you determined to let him suffer alongside you?” Old Madam Chu’s ultimate goal was still the child.
Shao He coldly said, “No need for Old Madam to worry, I will take good care of how to take care of my child.”
Seeing Shao He’s resolute attitude, a flash of annoyance crossed Old Madam Chu’s face. But soon, she put on a benevolent expression, “Fine, since that’s the case, I won’t disturb you further.”
Having said that, she allowed Nanny Xu to help her leave, a sinister look flashing in her eyes as she turned around.
Inside Marquis Pingnan’s Mansion.
Recently, Chu Yu had been spending his nights in He Caier’s room, occasionally staying in another servant’s room. He rarely visited Luo Jiner.
Luo Jiner was driven mad with anger but helpless. She could only watch as Chu Yu favored other women.
Ever since that incident, the Marquis seemed different towards her, becoming cold and harsh. Plus, his recent nights spent in other women’s rooms made Luo Jiner feel utterly heartbroken, as if the sky had collapsed.
Qiu Zhu walked in with pastries and, seeing the fuming figure, didn’t dare to make a sound, fearing she might anger her mistress.
“Get out!” Luo Jiner, her face ashen with anger, lifted her foot and kicked Qiu Zhu down.
Frightened, Qiu Zhu hastily got up, picked up the pastries from the floor, and clutching her stomach, ran out of the room.
Luo Jiner sat in front of the mirror, combing through her hair decorations, pondering what to do to win back the Marquis’s favor.
The next morning, while clearing the courtyard, maids chatted spiritedly in the distance.
“I heard that the Marquis has been spending every night in He Caier’s room recently. She’s really lucky. At this rate, she might soon be pregnant.”
“Yes, and perhaps she’ll be raised to concubine.”
“I don’t think so. Concubine He is of low birth, even if she bears the Legitimate Eldest Son for the Marquis, it doesn’t necessarily mean he would inherit.”
“This…”
Luo Jiner furrowed her brows and stopped in her tracks, sidling closer to listen.
The maids, growing more excited as they spoke, didn’t notice Luo Jiner approaching from behind.
Startled by Luo Jiner’s sudden appearance, the maids screamed, but upon recognizing her, they quickly knelt to greet her.
With a stern face, Luo Jiner asked, “What are you discussing?”
“The servant… the servant…” the two maids bowed their heads, not daring to meet Luo Jiner’s eyes.
