Doctor and His Glamorous Sister-in-Law-Chapter 720 - 723: Divine Healer Pavilion

This left Liu Ergou with nowhere to search, and as time passed, he had no choice but to give up. To his surprise, however, he had met Fu Ya again here today. Her condition was terrible. She looked like a flickering candle in the wind, ready to be extinguished at any moment.

"Sister Fu Ya, don't talk," Liu Ergou quickly interrupted, seeing she was about to speak again. "Let me first check what's wrong with you and find out why you've ended up like this."

With that, Liu Ergou moved to take her pulse, but Fu Ya stopped him the moment he reached out.

"I'm fine, Er Gou. You don't need to take my pulse," she said, pulling her hand back under the blanket. "I'm fully aware of my own condition. I'll be fine after some rest."

However, just as Fu Ya finished speaking, her face suddenly flushed, and she spat a mouthful of blood right onto Liu Ergou. His expression darkened as he looked at the blood on his clothes. He dipped a fingertip into it, rubbed it between his fingers, and brought it to his nose for a faint sniff.

"Poisoned," he said gravely. "And this is blood from your internal organs?"

He turned back to Fu Ya. "Sister Fu Ya, what on earth happened? Why were you poisoned? And why are you coughing up blood from your internal organs?" he demanded, his voice tight. "When someone coughs up blood from their organs, it means they don't have long to live! What happened to you? How did you end up like this?! No wonder the smell of blood in here is so strong. It'd be a miracle if it wasn't!"

In response to Liu Ergou's questioning, Fu Ya remained silent. She simply turned, lay back on the bed, and closed her eyes.

"It's nothing, it's nothing," she whispered. "This isn't something you should be involved in, Little Brother Er Gou. Since that Snow Skin Cream is your product, we'll leave it at that. This is my fault... You should go now. But after you leave, you must act as if you were never here today and never saw me. I'm tired. I need to rest."

After speaking, Fu Ya shut her eyes again.

Seeing Fu Ya like this made Liu Ergou's brow furrow so deeply he could have crushed a fly between them. Why would she say something like that? Usually, only people with powerful enemies say things like this, afraid their enemies will target those close to them. Could it be that Fu Ya...

Liu Ergou couldn't help but shake his head at the thought. No, that idea doesn't seem plausible. Given Fu Ya's status, what kind of powerful enemies could she possibly have? Besides, only someone from the Ancient Martial Sects could injure a person this badly. While Fu Ya has some standing, it's not enough to put her in contact with people from the Ancient Martial Sects.

Just as Liu Ergou was lost in thought, an angry woman's shout erupted from outside the door.

"Bastards! A bunch of useless bastards!

"What did I tell you when I left? How many times did I warn you that absolutely no one but me is allowed inside this room?!

"And what did you do? You treated my words like empty air! I'm telling you, if anything happens to the Young Miss, I'll have all of you buried with her!

"Stand aside! I want to see just who is so important that the Young Miss would see him personally!"

The words had barely faded when the bedroom door was pushed open. A woman dressed similarly to Liu Ergou and his companions stepped inside. Her face was veiled, so Liu Ergou couldn't see her features clearly, but he could make out a pair of incredibly captivating, fox-like eyes. The moment he saw those eyes, a trace of astonishment crossed his face. This woman possesses a natural, seductive charm!

However, before Liu Ergou could process it, the fox-eyed woman strode over to him. Without a word, she grabbed him by the collar and began dragging him out of the room.

At that exact moment, Fu Ya, who had been lying silently on the bed, suddenly opened her eyes and shouted urgently at the woman, "Stop! Who told you to touch Liu Ergou?! Let him go! Let him leave right now, do you hear me?!"

The fox-eyed woman, however, completely ignored Fu Ya's words. She continued to drag Liu Ergou by his collar straight into the living room. The two women who had come with Liu Ergou exchanged a look and quickly followed.

Before Liu Ergou could say anything after being hauled into the living room, the fox-eyed woman roared at him, "I'm telling you, if anything happens to Miss Fu today, I will take your life! Do you hear me?!"

Staring at the furious woman before him, Liu Ergou didn't answer her threat. Instead, he asked a question of his own. "We can talk about you taking my life later. First, I need you to tell me what's going on. I've known Sister Fu Ya for a long time; we were good friends. Why is she injured so badly? She's coughing up blood from her organs, and she's been poisoned!"

Upon hearing Liu Ergou's words, the furious fox-eyed woman's expression turned to one of surprise. She had assumed he was just another rich heir who did nothing but cause trouble and meddle where he wasn't wanted. But he had assessed Fu Ya's condition at a single glance. This knowledge greatly softened her attitude. A moment later, she suddenly performed a fist salute toward Liu Ergou.

"I am Liu Lu, a doctor from the Divine Healer Pavilion," she said. "May I ask who you are?" 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Liu Ergou was taken aback by her words. The Divine Healer Pavilion? What's that? It sounds like a medical clinic, but I've never heard of it. Is it a clinic like Baozhi Hall?

He stood there for a moment, unsure how to respond. Lu Shuangyue, standing beside him, saw his silence and knew what he was thinking. She leaned in and whispered in his ear, "The Divine Healer Pavilion is the hospital of the Ancient Martial Sects. It's where they treat injured Ancient Martial Artists."

Liu Ergou's eyes lit up with understanding. He hastily mimicked Liu Lu's gesture and returned the salute.

"Uh, my name is Liu Ergou. I'm from the Flying Swallow Sect."

When Liu Lu heard him claim to be from the Flying Swallow Sect, she couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. "Are you sure you're not lying to me?" she asked. "As I recall, the Flying Swallow Sect hasn't accepted disciples in many years. That sect now consists of only one master and one apprentice."

Liu Ergou nodded quickly. "I'm not lying. There's no reason to."

"But I am curious," he added. "How did you know I was part of the Ancient Martial Sects? Weren't you afraid of making a mistake?"

Hearing his question, Liu Lu didn't hide the truth and began to explain.
