บท 945: Unexplainable

Qiao Xuan took the ointment from the doctor and requested a basin of water to clean their faces before leaving.

The doctor stared at Shao Yunduan for a while, then waved his hand impatiently. "Just go!"

Expressing gratitude, Shao Yunduan led Qiao Xuan to the back hall.

Qiao Xuan remained silent, conflicted between feelings of humiliation and happiness.

Upon returning home, Shao Yunduan instructed Songshi not to reveal his identity or show up in person. He even enlisted the help of some idlers to spread the news about what had transpired earlier that day.

They didn't need to worry about the cost; the news would circulate within Liuzhi Alley, bringing benefits to Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan.

Considering the Qiao Family's lack of popularity in the capital and their avoidance of causing trouble, it was unlikely to draw much attention from the wider city.
