Chapter 336: Chapter 337: Lin Shuangqiao Takes a Fancy to Pei Huaian

Pei Huaian clasped his shoulders with both hands and pulled the person up from his embrace, the dim light in his eyes gradually regaining a hint of color.

“Really? You’re not avoiding me because I failed to protect our child?”

Shao He took a deep breath and nodded slightly, “No one wishes for such things to happen, but since it has happened, we can only accept it calmly, luckily Xiao Linzhang only suffered some minor injuries on his cheek, nothing serious.”

Pei Huaian, upon hearing this, finally let go of his worries and began to inquire about the injury on Xiao Linzhang’s face.

“Will the wound on his face leave a scar? Was he frightened by today’s incident?”

“I have already prepared a scar removal ointment for him, with regular application, the scars on his face will soon be cleared, He had planned to sell this ointment at Anji Hall, but recently he has been too busy to produce it in larger quantities.”

“You’ve worked hard.” Pei Huaian knew that Shao He had been working tirelessly, spending every day administering acupuncture to The Emperor and preparing medicines.

He did everything with his own hands, never relying on anyone else’s help.

“I have an idea.”

Shao He suddenly stood up, how could she forget about a device that could be useful, not only accelerating the process of surgery but also reducing the risk of infection for The Emperor.

“What did you think of?” Pei Huaian was startled by her abrupt movement and, after collecting his thoughts, spoke up and asked.

“I suddenly remembered there’s a device that can help with the surgery, I’ll go with you tomorrow to retrieve it.”

“Alright.”

Pei Huaian looked outside at the fading daylight and lifted his foot to leave, but Shao He caught his wrist, her voice low as she said, “Don’t always doubt yourself, believe that you really are good enough.”

Shao He rose to her feet and wrapped her arms around his waist, resting her cheek against his broad back, this was the first time she initiated closeness with Pei Huaian.

He could feel the stiffness of Pei Huaian’s body and sensed his trembling from excitement.

Pei Huaian slowly turned around, his eyes brimming with too much surprise, “Shao He, believe me, I will provide a home for you and our child, never letting you suffer the slightest grievance, and there will be no other concubines, only you.”

“I trust you.”

Shao He felt his protectiveness and knew he had always been carefully approaching her, such a Pei Huaian made her heart ache.

Even though he was a high and mighty Prince, he was willing to bend down for her.

…

The next morning, after giving The Emperor his injection, Shao He followed Pei Huaian back to Anji Hall.

“Wait for me a moment.”

Shao He went to the room where the device was kept, unlocked the door, stepped in, and closed her eyes, using her will to retrieve the device once again.

It was only after cold sweat broke out on her forehead that the device appeared with a “bang” in front of her.

Perhaps because it had been a long time since she had retrieved something, she felt somewhat dizzy this time, gripping the table tightly to barely steady herself.

After calming herself for a moment, Shao He walked out to meet Pei Huaian, who was waiting outside, concerned by her pale face and asking, “What’s wrong? Do you feel unwell?”

“It’s nothing, maybe just a lack of rest.” Shao He sat down on a chair, and Pei Huaian hurriedly poured a cup of water and handed it to her.

This scene was coincidentally witnessed by Lin Shuangqiao, who had come to deliver medicinal materials, and seeing the solicitous manner of Pei Huaian, she felt extremely envious.

When she saw the man who slowly turned around, she almost couldn’t tear her gaze away from him,

She found herself breathless, her heart racing uncontrollably. What kind of man was this?

With eyes like stars and a tall nose, sharp facial features, thin lips tightly sealed, wearing a white brocade robe, he exuded innate noble airs.

Even she couldn’t deny that she was a bit stunned…

It was as if the person before her was an exiled celestial from the heavens, incorporeal.

Pei Huaian noticed someone staring at him, and his originally gentle expression suddenly turned as cold as frost, the air around him seeming to freeze.

Lin Shuangqiao immediately came to her senses, her face reddening as she realized her behavior, she quickly bent down to pick up the medicinal materials on the floor.

Seeing her like this, Shao He frowned, feeling that keeping her around was a mistake.

Back in the backyard, with Pei Huaian’s image filling her mind, Lin Shuangqiao saw Zhao Yuebei drying medicinal materials not far away, she walked over and casually inquired, “I saw Doctor Shao and a man return, who was that man? And he seemed particularly close to Doctor Shao.”

“Oh, that was the Fifth Prince,” Zhao Yuebei answered without giving it much thought.

“What?” Lin Shuangqiao exclaimed in surprise, her eyes widening.

Hearing this, her heart skipped a beat before she composed herself, yet it continued to thump rapidly.

It was the most favored Fifth Prince.

No wonder he was so handsome and distinguished.

Lin Shuangqiao secretly rejoiced: it was lucky she hadn’t made her admiration too obvious, otherwise the clever Fifth Prince would surely have suspected her of harboring intentions toward him.

With this thought, she feigned ease and smiled lightly as she asked, “I see the Fifth Prince seems quite close to Doctor Shao, what is their relationship?”

Zhao Yuebei, not noticing Lin Shuangqiao’s agitation, simply nodded slightly, “Well, the Fifth Prince seems to like Doctor Shao, as for anything more, I’m not very clear on it.”

Of course, he had only heard about this from Yun Qian.

Lin Shuangqiao felt a wave of disappointment, but then she thought, which Prince doesn’t have multiple wives and concubines? If she could become the Fifth Prince’s concubine, a rise to glory could be just around the corner.
