Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Su Wenxiu recalled the past and the humiliating words Wang Siman had said to him, “Wenxiu, why don’t you take a good, long look at yourself? No matter how hard you work with your family’s background, it’s useless. Can you guys compete with wealthy and prominent families?

“You must know your place and stop thinking that not canceling the engagement will work. Why don’t you look at where your family is? Your reputation is terrible, and you’re poor.

“I told you I wanted that hairpin, but you couldn’t afford it. What about my betrothal money? Can your family afford it?”

These words filled Su Wenxiu’s mind, one at a time, causing his eyes to turn red with anger. He was a man of dignity, but every word Wang Siman said was a massive blow to him.

He had been busy every day under the care of his family and had forgotten about this. However, Wang Siman’s appearance reminded him of what she had said.

Su Wenxiu said, “I don’t want to be associated with you. So, can you not be so narcissistic?”

He had gone to the capital and experienced many terrible things on his journey, so he was no longer the young man who only blushed in anger whenever someone humiliated him. Instead, he would retaliate. 𝑏𝘦𝘥𝘯𝑜𝘷𝘦𝑙．𝑜𝑟𝘨

Wang Siman looked at Su Wenxiu in disbelief, “H-How dare you speak to me like that?! Do you think I’ll believe you didn’t come here just to see me? We’re in Hundred Herbs Hospital, so how can you enter such a highly regarded place like this?

“You can’t even afford to pay for a consultation, let alone get medicine. You came here because you knew I was here. I’ve already told you our engagement is over.

“I’m the wife to the High Duke’s eldest young master now. If you know what’s good for you, you’d better leave quickly,” Wang Siman was just short of saying, “get lost.”

However, she still had some concerns. She feared Su Wenxiu would fight with her till the end. If that were the case, he would inadvertently expose her past. She did not want the Duke to know she had been engaged to someone else before, as it would be terrible for her reputation.

‘The High Duke’s public house’s wealth isn’t something a country bumpkin like Wenxiu could compare to.’ Wang Siman looked at Su Wenxiu with disgust.

Su Wenxiu sneered. “That’s why you can continue being the young madam in the public house. I didn’t come to Hundred Herbs Hospital for you. Stop being so arrogant and delusional.”

Su Wenxiu wanted to scold Wang Siman, but he was well-mannered and held back. “Although the ‘dog’ bit me, I don’t intend on biting back because I’m human.”

His words were harsh, but he was not scolding the young madam. Still, his words had a more stimulating effect.

“Y-You…” Wang Siman’s lips trembled in anger, and she was speechless.

‘Since when did Wenxiu have such a sharp tongue?! He even called me a dog!’

She was already fuming when Su Wenxian added, “No, I can’t compare a dog to you since it’ll humiliate the dog.”

“Su Wenxiu!” Wang Siman’s eyes widened in anger as she yelled at him.

The people in the queue looked over when they heard the commotion. They all looked at Wang Siman angrily.

“Where did this lady come from? She put on airs and used her status to cut the queue when she arrived. She’s also rude to Second Young Master Su!”

The people visiting Hundred Herbs Hospital respectfully addressed Su Wenxiu as Second Young Master Su.

“Everyone who comes to Hundred Herbs Hospital has to line up,” Su Wenxiu said coldly, “Ma’am, please don’t cut in line. Don’t disturb our doctors and patients.”

Wang Siman’s lips trembled as she tried to say something.

Just then, Doctor Wu came out. He looked at Su Wenxiu excitedly and said, “Wenxiu, there’s a medical case and a prescription here that I need help understanding. Please explain it to me.

“This book of yours. Everything you’ve written here is amazing! Wenxiu, your medical skills will far surpass mine soon. I’ll have to ask you for more advice then.”

Doctor Wu spoke from the bottom of his heart and was clueless about the little dispute that had just happened. He was about to leave with Su Wenxiu when he saw Wang Siman.

Then Doctor Wu noticed everyone’s expressions as they stood in line and asked Wang Siman, “Did you cut the queue? We don’t allow people to cut in unless there’s a life-threatening situation. Please consult elsewhere if you insist on cutting the queue.”

His tone did not show an ounce of politeness as he spoke. He hated those who relied on status to disregard the rules and bully ordinary people.

Doctor Wu looked at everyone, then at the young madam’s attire and the servant girl’s overbearing posture. Then he better understood what was happening.

In the past, people like this had cut the queue, but Hundred Herbs Hospital did not like this.

Wang Siman’s eyes were about to pop out of her head. She knew of Doctor Wu from Hundred Herbs Hospital.

‘Why would Doctor Wu discuss the prescription of an illness with a country bumpkin like Wenxiu? How could Doctor Wu be so respectful to Wenxiu but not

‘Could Wenxiu be giving medical services at Hundred Herbs Hospital? No, no, he was not wearing a doctor’s uniform. However, the people here are very respectful toward Wenxiu.’

Wang Siman thought about what she had said before and felt like she had gotten slapped in the face.

In addition, Doctor Wu’s words just now were merciless. Wang Siman’s face was red and blue as people pointed at her.

Wang Siman’s servant girl retorted, “My young madam is the High Duke’s young mistress. How dare you disrespect her in a run-down place like this?!”

Wang Siman should have scolded her servant, but she did not. She kept quiet whenever this happened, causing her servants to be rude and unruly.

Doctor Wu frowned immediately. “Oh, is that so? Tell me which High Duke’s public house it is so I can ask the Wu family to pay a visit. Let’s see if the High Duke was the one who taught his young mistress and servants to behave so atrociously.”

Wang Siman and the servant’s faces paled when they heard that, especially Wang Siman. She knew Hundred Herbs Hospital had influential backing, and so did the capital.

‘If the people from the High Duke’s public house discover what I’ve done… No, no!’ Her face flushed.

“Yeah! We don’t know if they’re from the High Duke’s public house or just foxes exploiting a tiger’s might!”

“These kinds of people only know how to bully others! ”

“Why does she look so familiar? Isn’t she from our town?”

Wang Siman’s face turned white as snow when she saw everyone glaring and pointing at her angrily.

She glared back at Su Wenxiu, then quickly left with her servant girl in tow.

Su Wenxiu felt a sense of relief as he looked at Wang Siman’s dismal appearance. Soon after, he and Doctor Wu went back inside to discuss their medical skills.

Although this was a small interlude, Su Wenxiu understood he had to work harder. He could only avoid humiliation and disrespect by working hard enough to become stronger..
