Chapter 340: You Have to Coax Her When She's Angry

As the conversation between the two continued, Song Miqiu increasingly felt that Yu Huailin was not really listening to her.

Seeing his absent-minded and dazed expression, Song Miqiu's anger was instantly ignited.

"Are you even listening to me?!"

The sudden increase in volume brought Yu Huailin back to his senses.

"I'm listening, of course I'm listening to what you have to say."

Song Miqiu was furious. She had just talked to him so much, but he hadn't said a single word of concern. He didn't care about her at all.

It's ridiculous that Song Miqiu was still lost in thought when he entered the room and tried to guess what Yu Huailin was thinking.

Song Miqiu turned her back, not wanting to see Yu Huailin.

Yu Huailin then realized he had made a mistake and quickly went over to comfort Song Miqiu.

"You've misunderstood me. How could I not be listening to you? I heard every single word you said."

Song Miqiu didn't believe his lies at all. "I encountered such danger in the palace, why didn't you even say a word of concern? You have disappointed me greatly."

Yu Huailin panicked and didn't know what to do with his hands and feet. "You're standing here safely in front of me now, aren't you? What I've been thinking about is why you were targeted by them. It's not that I don't care about you."

"I worry about you more than anyone else in the world."

Looking at Yu Huailin's sincere expression, Song Miqiu said, "Forget it, I'll just consider this one more time as trusting you. Just don't let me find out next time."

Yu Huailin finally breathed a sigh of relief. This woman was truly both lovable and infuriating.

"You stay at home for the next few days. I'll send people to the palace to investigate thoroughly, and I also need to question that Seventh Prince."

Song Miqiu had been puzzled, and now that their conflict was resolved, she asked, "Do you have some kind of grudge against the Seventh Prince? I noticed something was off from the beginning."

Yu Huailin did not directly answer Song Miqiu's question, saying, "You will naturally understand this matter in the future. Knowing so much now will not do you any good."

Song Miqiu was so tired of hearing this that she said, "Just get out of here. I've had enough of this."

Yu Huailin laughed instead, "Even if you hate me, as long as I can see you all the time, I don't care about anything else."

Song Miqiu, on the contrary, couldn't stand Yu Huailin's appearance the most.

"I want to rest for a while, you go ahead and do your work."

An thought Song Miqiu was tired, so she quickly made room for her.

Yu Huailin didn't sit idly by; he immediately went to find his capable subordinate.

"You have your brothers in the palace keep an eye on the Seventh Prince. Report any of his movements to me immediately, and don't miss any details."

The guards withdrew after receiving the order.

These past few days, Song Miqiu has finally been able to rest and recuperate at home, returning to her former peaceful life.

I get up early to make breakfast and eat with my son and daughter-in-law. In the morning, I take a walk and study medicine. After lunch, I take a nap. In the afternoon, I play with my grandchildren.

Sometimes I chat with Yu Huailin at night and go to bed early.

My mental state changed completely.

This is what has made Yu Huailin extremely anxious these past few days.

The secret agents sent to investigate the Seventh Prince have made no progress in the past few days; there is nothing suspicious about the Seventh Prince.

After lunch that day, Yu Huailin came to discuss this matter with Song Miqiu.

"The Seventh Prince hasn't done anything suspicious these past few days. Perhaps you were overthinking things?"

Song Miqiu was also puzzled, "That's impossible. The Seventh Prince must have some secrets that no one knows. Otherwise, how can we explain his behavior?"

"Then let's observe the situation for a few more days. Maybe you're just overthinking things while you're in the palace?"

Song Miqiu listened to Yu Huailin's suggestion and also felt that this was the right thing to do.

"Okay, then I'll listen to you and observe for a few more days. If it doesn't work, then we'll give up."

Yu Huailin nodded as well.

Several more days passed, and the secret guards still reported that there was nothing suspicious about it.

The secret guards knew even the Seventh Prince's little habits.

"Alright, I understand. You may leave now. Seventh Prince, there's no need for further investigation. I'll summon you if needed."

After saying that, the guard disappeared into the night.

Similarly, Yu Huailin told Song Miqiu everything that the secret guards had reported to him.

After listening, Song Miqiu said, "Then maybe I'm overthinking it. I've really wronged the Seventh Prince. Maybe that's just his personality."

In the end, Song Miqiu had no choice but to make this decision; otherwise, it wouldn't make sense.

During the few days he stayed at home, Song Miqiu gradually recovered.

After I recovered, I had nothing to do and my mind started wandering.

Song Miqiu felt that Ming Taicheng was injured alone in the palace with no one to take care of him, so she thought she should go back to the palace.

So after dinner that day, he stayed behind to discuss the matter with Yu Huailin.

“I want to go back to the palace. There’s nothing to do at home. If I go back to the palace, I can learn some medical skills and take care of Ming Taicheng.”

Yu Huailin was unaware that Ming Taicheng was ill, and after much deliberation, he said...

"I'll think of a way to send you into the palace later."

This matter has now been resolved.

The next day, after Yu Huailin returned from the palace, he informed Song Miqiu that she could enter the palace.

At times like these, Song Miqiu felt that Yu Huailin was particularly reliable and dependable.

Just like last time, Song Miqiu's family members reluctantly saw her off at the door.

This time, Song Miqiu was different; she returned to the palace with Yu Huailin.

After returning to the palace, Song Miqiu did not go back to the Imperial Hospital but went directly to Ming Taicheng's residence.

As soon as the maid entered, she seemed to know that Song Miqiu was coming, and hurriedly invited her in.

"Our master has been waiting for you for a long time."

This statement left Song Miqiu completely baffled.

But she had no choice but to follow the maid into the room.

The scene that greeted Song Miqiu upon entering only deepened his confusion.

Ming Taicheng sat there, looking at Song Miqiu with a smile in his eyes, and gestured for him to come in.

He didn't look injured at all.

"Come in, feel free to ask me anything."

Song Miqiu hesitated for a moment before going inside.

"Your legs aren't?"

Ming Taicheng laughed out loud and raised his hand to slap his calves a few times.

Looking at Song Miqiu with a smug expression, he asked, "Are you talking about my legs?"

Song Miqiu went inside and sat down opposite Ming Taicheng.

"Didn't you take sick leave and stay home to rest because of your leg injury?"

Seeing Ming Taicheng raise his eyebrows, Song Miqiu realized that it was all a deception by Ming Taicheng.

"You've made me worry so much."

After complaining, he looked at Ming Taicheng's legs and asked again, "But why did you tell this lie?"

Ming Taicheng stood up. "The palace is about to be in chaos. I wanted to take this opportunity to resign from my position as head of the Imperial Medical Academy and give myself some peace and quiet. That's why I lied."
