Chapter 388: Chapter 398: Leave Something Behind

The little soldier glanced at Gu Youyou guiltily, not daring to defy Yue Rujing’s words, and hastily retreated.

"It really wasn’t my fault, Doctor Gu. I just reached the doorway when I ran into the Young Master."

Behind the snow-covered haystacks, only Gu Youyou and Yue Rujing remained. Before Gu Youyou could speak, Yue Rujing chuckled and said, "It’s unfortunate, Chief Gu, that my senior brother is not in the camp today, he has another task and has gone out."

Gu Youyou glared at him furiously, her teeth clenched as she spat out a few words, "No matter, it’s you I’m looking for."

Yue Rujing’s eyes lit up, and he stared at Gu Youyou’s arm, saying, "Is it that... it won’t wash off?"

Damn you, Yue Rujing, doing this on purpose for sure.

Gu Youyou rolled up her sleeve in one swift motion and demanded, "What do you mean by that?"

When Yue Rujing saw the mark on Gu Youyou’s arm, resembling a red birthmark, he suddenly became so excited he didn’t know where to put his hands.

The expression on Gu Youyou’s face became increasingly grim. It was cold, and she quickly pulled her sleeve back down.

"Oh my, it really won’t wash off!" he exclaimed with excitement.

Then he immediately felt that something was off with Gu Youyou. Didn’t she know what this was?

Upon closer observation, Gu Youyou’s behavior didn’t seem feigned at all. She really didn’t know what this was?

This strange woman, the things she should know, she doesn’t; the things she shouldn’t know, she knows them all.

Yue Rujing’s lunatic-like demeanor was hard to fathom. Gu Youyou stared at him as if looking at a madman, wondering what he was actually up to.

"This... this is quite good, isn’t it? Look how pretty it is."

Gu Youyou: "..."

Is this a question of whether it looks good or not? Even if a mosquito bite swells up on the body, knowing it will subside in a few days, it still causes discomfort. And this was intentionally done by Yue Rujing.

That day, painting the Five Poisons, it must have been his meticulous planning, right? Otherwise, given the second young mistress’s nature, would she have let Gu Youyou paint the Five Poisons with them?

"Stop spouting nonsense, what is your real intention?"

Yue Rujing fawningly replied, "No intention really, rest assured, it’s a good thing, it won’t harm you."

I’ll believe that when hell freezes over.

"Yue Rujing, as far as I remember, I haven’t harmed you, but you, when you took my blood, had the intention to silence me. I overlooked the past grievances for Jin Zijin’s sake, yet you repeatedly cause me trouble. Don’t think I don’t know that you had a hand in the arrangements on the night of the vigil."

"You won that night, didn’t you, and made quite a sum of silver."

"That was my own capability. You all intended to see me make a fool of myself."

Suddenly, Gu Youyou found all the young masters and mistresses of the Yue Family quite annoying. She saw so many patients in a day, and even on the rare holiday she gave herself, she had to spend effort dealing with their tricks.

With one careless move, even watching the excitement can get you into trouble.

You can guard against a thief for a while, but can you guard against a thief all your life?

Whether it’s the Gu Youyou of the past or the Gu Youyou of now, living carefully isn’t easy. Sometimes she even dreamt of being held down by a group of people in black, forcing her to swallow some dark, muddy poison.

Looking at this indelible red scar, God knows what she has imagined.

Enough is enough.

Behind the snowy haystacks, silence fell for a moment.

Perhaps sensing that Gu Youyou was genuinely angry, Yue Rujing finally dropped his playful grin. Then he whispered, "That really is nothing, you... just take it as a prank."

Laughing in extreme anger, Gu Youyou retorted, "Then would you like me to leave you with something too?"

"Ah?" Yue Rujing said in surprise, "I really didn’t harm you. Don’t be like this."
