Capítulo 23: What A Joke, Would I Be Scared By My Newly Married Young Madam?
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Bai Qifan was so generous. Chu Yunyao asked for two small gold bars, but she had not expected to receive two heavy gold ingots. Chu Yunyao closed the box, her eyes shining with a smile.
Now, she had the cost of renting a shop and doing business. After she cleared the remaining poison in her body and cured the pus on her face, she could move out of the Young Marshal's Mansion.
No matter where she went, people would not welcome her because of her ugly face.
No one would recognise her when her face recovered, and she became independent.
The carriage stopped outside the mansion. Rong Xiu lifted the curtain and wanted to reach out to help Chu Yunyao, but he saw Chu Yunyao hugging the mahogany box tightly to avoid his touch. She lifted the hem of her dress and nimbly jumped off the carriage, walking towards the mansion without looking back.
Rong Xiu stared at her slender and straight back. After thinking for a moment, he chased after her and grabbed Chu Yunyao's arm, "Miss Chu."
"Hmm?" Chu Yunyao stopped in her tracks and turned her head. A smile on her face still had not faded yet, and her eyes were as bright as the rosy clouds, "Anything else?"
Rong Xiu's heart skipped a beat as the pair of dark eyes stared at him. He said shyly, "I'm sorry for my action just now. Thank you for saving my sister and nephew."
"If you need help in the future, just say it. My name is Rong Xiu. Are you the new doctor in the Young Marshal's Mansion?"
The Bai family had already given her a generous consultation fee. Chu Yunyao did not want to take advantage of the favor and nodded perfunctorily, "Yes, I'll keep it in mind."
After giving instructions on caring for a premature baby, Chu Yunyao sent Rong Xiu off before turning around.
A pair of dark eyes caught her off guard. She saw Mo Lingyuan standing at the door, wearing a striped vest and trousers. His hands were in his pockets, staring at her.
She did not know how long he had been looking at her, but his eyes were like those of a wolf king on the prairie, emitting a faint cold light.
Chu Yunyao glanced at the car that was driving away. The window was down. Through the rearview mirror, Miss Cheng stared at Mo Lingyuan, full of love.
She had a feeling for Mo Lingyuan while Mo Lingyuan did not.
It was a waste of Mo Lingyuan's good looks.
He was a heartless man.
Chu Yunyao sighed secretly and walked into the mansion with her head lowered.
Mo Lingyuan stepped forward and deliberately stopped Chu Yunyao, "Where did you go? What's in the box?"
"Clinic." Chu Yunyao tightened her grip on the box in her arms, "Doctor Zhang gave me this ointment. After applying it, my face will get better."
Mo Lingyuan reached out his hand. He pinched Chu Yunyao's chin and thumb and lifted her face, "Don't always lower your head when you talk to me in the future."
She was already thin and short, and when she lowered her head, the back of her head was the only thing in sight, as if he was bullying her.
Chu Yunyao raised her head and blinked. Her eyes were like blooming stars, shining and dazzling.
"I'm ugly, so I'm afraid I'll scare you." She chuckled.
Mo Lingyuan sneered, "What a joke. Would I be scared by my wife?"
Chu Yunyao thought momentarily, and smiled.
On the second day of their wedding, they woke up in the same bed. He had seen her ugly face but did not seem to dislike her.
Besides having a good appearance, this man had another advantage. He did not judge a book by its cover.
Mo Lingyuan stared at Chu Yunyao, frowned and asked unhappily, "What were you talking about with Rong Xiu just now? You guys seem to be chatting happily."
"I wasn't very happy when I talked about Mrs. Bai." Chu Yunyao denied.
Upon hearing her words, the frustration in Mo Lingyuan's heart dissipated a lot. He looked serious and said, "How did you know that Mrs. Bai would give birth prematurely? Do you have any medical experience?"
