Xia Weibao sneered coldly, "Not having seen it before doesn’t mean I can’t cure it."

There are so many complex diseases in the world; she couldn’t possibly have seen them all.

Just like the poison on Yan Lingyi—it’s her first time encountering it.

Not having seen it doesn’t mean she can’t cure it.

Lu Hualiang, dissatisfied, pinched her cheek, "Wife, you don’t need my help with anything, making me feel like a husband without a sense of presence."

Her Majesty the Empress thought seriously for two seconds and said with utmost solemnity, "There is one urgent matter that needs your help."

Lu Hualiang raised an eyebrow, "Say it."

"It’s... hurry up and get out, I want to sleep!" 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

After speaking, she pushed him back, swiftly put on her pajamas, and tilted her body to sleep.

Knowing she needed to focus on the competition during this period, Lu Hualiang didn’t argue with her.

He didn’t leave either but lay down to sleep with her.

"Aren’t you afraid of being found out?" Xia Weibao asked.

He was truly becoming bolder. The competition rules stated no contact with outsiders during treatment, yet this man came over in broad daylight without fear of being caught.

If discovered, she would be automatically disqualified!

"Afraid of what."

Lu Hualiang was unconcerned; not only was he always cautious, but no one had ever caught him.

Even if seen, so what? Who would dare to stand up and testify against him?

Yanxia Group isn’t something the Xia Family can afford to offend!

"Wife, really don’t need help?"

Xia Weibao shrugged her shoulders, freeing herself from his hand, "No need. Do you think my reputation as a miracle doctor is just talk?"

Seeing her sleepy, Lu Hualiang stopped disturbing and hugged her from behind, accompanying her for a nap.

Although it was a closed competition, the Xia Family had assigned servants and chefs, so there was no need to cook for herself.

Xia Weibao only came down when it was time for dinner, and Jiang Li was already waiting in the dining hall below.

Seeing her come down, Jiang Li quickly stood up, shyly standing aside, smiling timidly.

"Miss Xia."

Xia Weibao glanced at her, nodded in acknowledgment.

Sitting down at the main seat, Jiang Li cautiously sat down afterward.

She seemed to have great respect for everything about the Xia Family.

Seeing her eat so timidly and constrained, Xia Weibao chuckled and asked, "Xiao Li, doesn’t the food suit your taste?"

"No, it’s very good," Jiang Li smiled shyly again, "I just feel uneasy; Miss Xia treated me for free and provided board and lodging, while I did nothing."

"It’s okay. We are in a competition. You, as the patient, have helped the Xia Family a lot."

Jiang Li still appeared very restrained and understanding.

After thinking for a moment, she mustered the courage to say, "How about I cook for you, Miss Xia, as a way to repay you for treating my illness."

Xia Yongxuan instructed her to find an opportunity to transmit AIDS to Xia Weibao.

And the best method of transmission between two women is via blood.

Xia Weibao glanced at her, still smiling kindly, "No need, the chef can handle the cooking."

"But doing nothing makes me really uncomfortable. I can make some hometown dishes, with a very special taste. Miss Xia, please let me do it."

"Alright then, thank you."

Jiang Li breathed a sigh of relief, "I’ll make breakfast for you tomorrow. There’s a carrot cake from my hometown that’s better than those outside."

Xia Weibao raised an eyebrow and smiled without saying a word.

The next day after getting up and washing, she went downstairs to the dining hall and saw several kinds of cakes and a small pot of fragrant porridge on the table.
