Chapter 313 - 313 313 Shes a Female Swindler

Chapter 313: Chapter 313: She’s a Female Swindler Chapter 313: Chapter 313: She’s a Female Swindler No matter how good his literary talent is, who would want to see such a ghostly face every day? Which minister in the court would want to? Even if they were happy with it, what about the Emperor? Would he be happy to see a ghostly face among the ministers in the future?

“I won’t study.”

“Okay, okay, you don’t have to study. Just don’t try to harm yourself,” Old Man Zeng responded repeatedly.

Hearing the words ‘try to harm yourself’, Zeng Yulang’s face, full of scars, turned red with anger, his eyes even redder as he glared at his own father.

“Father, how many times have I told you, I didn’t jump into the river, I didn’t!”

Although he didn’t understand why, when he had clearly been sleeping at home, he awoke a second time surrounded by a crowd of people, all comforting him with sympathetic faces, telling him not to lose hope.

He genuinely did not know what had happened.

However, he thought that what had happened must be related to Yan Jinhua, and that his ruined face was certainly the masterpiece of Yan Jinhua and the young master of the Marquis Mansion!

“Alright, alright, you didn’t jump into the river, you didn’t, it must’ve been a misunderstanding,” Old Man Zeng quickly agreed, fearing to provoke his son’s anger.

His son could say whatever he wanted, as long as there were no more incidents. He had no objections whatsoever, the crucial point was no more suicidal thoughts.

“Father!”

Zeng Yulang looked at his father in disbelief.

With so many people witnessing, could it be a misunderstanding? It must’ve been a plot against him. Anyone these days could drug him and throw him into the river. His family was not wealthy, they didn’t have many servants to protect them.

“I…”

“Brother Zeng, you’re at home.”

Just as he was about to speak, he heard a familiar voice outside the door. His face hardened, and he turned to go to his room.

“It’s my ‘sister’, what brings you here?”

Old Man Zeng quickly stood up, opened the door, and saw a woman outside with Lin Caisang.

“Brother Zeng, I coincidentally ran into this female doctor on the street. She heard about your son’s issue and wanted to come see his injuries. Just as well, since I heard you were looking for a doctor, I brought her over.” The woman said to Old Man Zeng, looking towards Lin Caisang.

“A female doctor?”

Old Man Zeng took a quick look at Lin Caisang and thought to himself: This girl looks so young, she’s already treating patients?

He was a bit skeptical. Could she be a scammer?

“Miss, where are you from?” he asked tentatively.

“Where I am from is not something for you to worry about. Even if you wanted to know, I wouldn’t tell you.” Lin Caisang said, looking at him indifferently.

Lin Caisang caught a glimpse of Zeng Yulang, standing in the courtyard looking towards them upon hearing that a doctor had arrived. His face was indeed severely injured.

But what she considered ‘stern’ was understating it.

“Is that your son?” she asked.

“Eh.”

Old Man Zeng followed her gaze and saw his own son.

He thought his son had gone back to his room a long time ago. He had no choice but to sigh and usher Lin Caisang inside.

At this point, even if he knew that the person who had come was a fraud, he had to give it a try. There was the chance she had real skills. How would he know if he didn’t try?

“Brother Zeng, you’re busy, I’ll leave first.” Seeing she had nothing to do at that moment, the woman turned around and left without giving Old Man Zeng a chance to express his gratitude.
