Liu Shimei thought for a moment and said, “I’ll ask first. I’ll take a leave of absence for a while. It’ll be fine if Doctor Du allows it. If you don’t allow it, I’ll resign myself.”
“Alright!” Qi Yang was very straightforward.
Although it was a pity for his disciple to go to the medicine hall to do odd jobs, he also knew that this girl’s ambition was different. Her path in the medical path was not inferior to the doctors of the Zheng Medical Hall. It was impossible for her to be unaware of this.
Under such circumstances, she still wanted to stay in the Zheng Medical Hall to run errands. Naturally, there were other reasons for her to be there.
He threw another question. “Then I’ll make preparations here. Disciple, think about it carefully. How are you going to escape these few days? Is it possible not to return to the Grand Chancellor’s Residence?”
Even if he did not go out much, he had heard about the recent uproar about Liu Shimei.
“That should work,” Liu Shimei immediately agreed.
Thus, they left.
Liang Yi’s carriage sent Liu Shimei back to the Grand Chancellor’s Residence.
In the carriage, Liang Yi glanced at Huangfu Lingyao and asked, “Younger Sister, King Dun Yu has been sticking to you like a baby who can’t leave his mother, don’t you find it a burden?”
Liu Shimei stroked his forehead speechlessly.
They were probably going to start arguing again!
As expected, Huangfu Lingyao glared at Liang Yi. “I like to follow her. If she’s willing to let me follow her, what does it have to do with you?”
Liang Yi ignored the idiot and looked at Liu Shimei. He asked, “Younger Sister, Grandpa has specially inquired with the Imperial Astronomical Bureau these past two days. It is said that you can only get married after His Highness the Crown Prince chooses a consort for his wedding. At least five months, right?” “I’m only 16, what’s the rush? Isn’t it good to be late?” Liu Shimei replied.
As soon as she finished speaking, she felt her hand being pinched.
She looked at Huangfu Lingyao in pain.
His expression was unhappy. Seeing that she was looking at him, he said, “Does Wife not want to be with me? Don’t you want to move in with me earlier?”
“It’s not that I don’t like you, but it’s also not that I don’t want to. It’s just that I’m not in a hurry! Not being in a rush and not wanting something are two different things, understand?” Liu Shimei explained seriously.
“Oh,” Huangfu Lingyao replied.
Her words were too roundabout. She did not know if he understood, but he still looked unhappy.
Liang Yi was amused when she saw that Silly Second Prince had been defeated. “Hehe, from our family’s point of view, we hope that the Grand Chancellor will chase you out of the house so that you can return to the Liang residence. We want you to marry from the Liang residence!”
Then, he recalled what happened today and said, “But obviously… The Grand Chancellor would never do that.”
“Yes, I won’t cause any trouble in the short term. Since everyone had already shed all pretense of cordiality, there were some things that would not be difficult to do in the future. At least he has no reason to care about me now.” Liu Shimei frowned and thought for a moment before saying, “However, if 1 want to leave the Liu family without being labeled as unfilial, it won’t be easy.” “What?” Liang Yi raised her eyebrows in surprise. “Are you planning to leave the Liu family and sever all ties with them?”
“Well, otherwise… What do you think?” Liu Shimei asked matter-of-factly.
Liang Yi said in surprise, “We all thought that you just wanted to distance yourself from them. Who would have thought that you were actually…”
They originally thought that Liu Shimei was planning to distance herself from Liu Fuyu. She would acknowledge him as her father, but she would not interact much with him.
However, she planned to cut them off entirely!
How ruthless!
Liu Shimei’s lips curled up coldly. “For the sake of benefits, it doesn’t matter to him whether I’m a chess piece for sacrifice.. Since he doesn’t have the heart of a father to me, what right does he have to ask for my good treatment toward him?”
