Chapter 430: 217 Jealous (First Update)_3
“It’s too far, I can’t see clearly,” said Prince An.
“What about this?” Gu Jiao pointed to the characters on the wall.
Prince An shook his head.
He’s also near-sighted.
Gu Jiao made her evaluation mentally.
Gu Jiao opened her first aid kit and from inside, she took out a miniature flashlight no larger than her palm.
To examine the retina, she needed a slit lamp, but unfortunately, her first aid kit couldn’t produce such a large piece of equipment, so she had to examine with her naked eye.
Gu Jiao was a doctor, when she treated patients, she did not distinguish between genders.
She stood up, positioned herself in front of Prince An, and bent slightly, “It might be a bit glaring. Try not to flinch.”
“Alright,” Prince An responded.
He was far more obedient than Liu Yisheng, who always did as the doctor instructed, and never moved when told not to.
Gu Jiao appreciate cooperative patients.
She opened his eyelids with one hand while using the ‘blade mode’ of the mini flashlight to examines his eyes.
Prince An didn’t know what she was holding, he only felt the brightness, and he could see nothing else.
Her pleasant scent filled his nostrils.
“Hmm.” After examining his eyes, Gu Jiao put away the mini flashlight, sat back in her chair, and asked him about his dietary habits before and after his time in Chen Country. She found out that he had been extremely cautious about his diet in Chen Country and avoided many foods, which led to nutritional problems.
His night blindness was treatable.
And his vision could possibly be restored.
Gu Jiao took out a bottle of cod liver oil from her first aid kit, poured it into a small porcelain bottle and handed it to him: “One a day, one at a time.”
“Are you sure it’s not poisoning?” Prince An took the small porcelain bottle, asking with a trace of disbelief.
It was understandable for him to be so cautious given that he had been sent to Chen Country as a hostage at the age of eight, and many people were hoping for his demise. He had been poisoned more than once or twice indeed.
“It’s not poisoning,” Gu Jiao firmly confirmed.
Prince An suddenly realized, so it wasn’t poisoning after all. He had been wondering why he couldn’t find the culprit, even having mistakenly killed two hostages.
Today, the Guozijian finished classes early, and Xiao Liao Quan had taken Liu Jin Kong away again. Tonight, the headmaster planned to give Liu Jin Kong some language tuition.
So, Xiao Liulang decided to go to the Medical Hall instead.
As he entered, he had a vague feeling that everyone was looking at him with strange expressions, especially the landlord and Shopkeeper Wang. Both their eyes were filled with sympathy and awkwardness, and they dare not meet his gaze.
After his leg was injured, Xiao Liulang got used to such gazes and didn’t pay them any mind. He headed towards Gu Jiao’s Courtyard.
The landlord murmured softly, “Should we tell her that Xiao Gu is in the Consulting Room?”
Shopkeeper Wang responded, “Isn’t that besides the point?”
The point was that the two of them had been in there for quite a while now and still hadn’t come out.
Was Miss Gu really that slow with her treatments?
It wasn’t likely that the two of them were doing anything unseemly, Gu Jiao had her own Courtyard. If they were up to something, they would have gone there instead.
However, it was quite rare for her to spend so much time on one patient, especially since the man didn’t look ill at all, and he was remarkably handsome.
The landlord: I know Xiao Gu best, she must have taken a liking to him, just like she did with Xiao Liulang back then!
While Xiao Liulang was asleep during the examination, Xiao Gu had been drooling over him for a long while in the side room. Humph, as if he didn’t know!
To go to the Courtyard, he had to pass by the Consulting Room.
Just as Xiao Liulang was about to pass the door to the Consulting Room, it was pulled open from the inside.
It was Prince An.
Xiao Liulang hesitated in his step.
At this moment, the first aid kit that was not placed properly fell from the table. As Gu Jiao reached to grab it, her waist almost hit the corner of the table. Prince An swiftly moved forward and extended his hand trying to shield her soft waist from the sharp corner of the table.

Actually, he did not touch her because she dodged in time. She wasn’t that careless.
But from Xiao Liulang’s perspective, it looked like he had put his hand on her waist.
Xiao Liulang’s gaze darkened for a moment.
