After returning to the city from outside, Mo Beihan, who had just eaten at Juxian Building, hurriedly wiped his mouth with a handkerchief and looked in the direction of Mu Er's finger.

Sure enough, I saw that familiar figure driving a carriage, passing through the bustling crowd, heading north of the city.

The north of the city was not the direction to the General's Mansion. What was she doing there?

Suddenly, the curtains of the carriage were lifted, and a handsome young man's face was revealed. He was looking at the street and giving directions to the driver.

Mo Beihan narrowed his eyes and looked at the young man carefully.

He was very sure that he had never seen this person before. He was not from Qingshui Village at all, nor did he appear to be a servant of the General's Mansion.

Who is this person? Why did that girl drive the carriage to carry the young man?

For some reason, Mo Beihan suddenly felt a little stuck in his heart, and the good mood he had just returned to the city suddenly turned dull.

But Mu Er was still on the side, whining:

"Master, look! There is someone in Miss Qiao's carriage! That boy is so handsome! Is that a relative of Miss Qiao's family? It doesn't look like it! There are no such poor relatives in the General's Mansion, right?"

Mo Beihan's heart became even more congested. He glared at Mu Er angrily, threw the handkerchief on the table, stood up and said:

"I have some things to deal with. You guys should go back to the house first!"

After saying that, he strode out the door.

Mu Er, who was still looking out the window, was stunned for a moment, staring blankly at his master's leaving figure, wondering why his master left so suddenly.

"Brother, where are you going, master? Why don't you take us with you?"

Mu Yi sighed helplessly:

"Let's go back to the house first. You have such a mouth, don't talk nonsense in front of the master in the future! Especially about Miss Qiao."

"Ah? Why? I didn't say anything!"

Mu Er quickly followed Mu Yi's pace. As he walked, he was still scratching his head and thinking, did he say something wrong?

However, Qiao Ran drove the carriage through the main street where people came and went, and headed north of the city under Qi Tiandong's guidance, and soon arrived in front of a medium-sized pharmacy.

Just when they arrived at the door, they both felt something strange.

It was still evening, and it was still very early before closing time. Other shops nearby were still busy, but the drug store with the name "Shanren Tang" was closed.

Before the carriage even stopped, Qi Tiandong couldn't wait to jump out. Regardless of the pain in his feet, he staggered to the door of the shop and slapped the door panel vigorously.

"Open the door! I'm back! Angelica, open the door quickly!"

Qi Tiandong banged the door panel, but no one came to open the door for a long time.

After thinking about it, he dragged his injured foot again and limped towards the backyard door of the drug store with one foot.

This medicine shop was passed down from the ancestors of the Qi family. In the front is the medicine shop, and in the back is the backyard where people live. The owner and the clerk live in the backyard.

Qi Tiandong went straight to the backyard without even having time to say a word to Qiao Ran.

He felt inexplicably flustered and had an ominous premonition.

Sure enough, as soon as he arrived at the door of the backyard, he saw that the door was wide open, and there were sounds of beatings, yells, and angry scoldings coming from inside.

Qi Tiandong's heart tightened and he stumbled inside.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, the scene in front of him made the young man's face change drastically and his eyes were about to burst.

At the door of a bedroom in the backyard, a woman and two men were seen punching and kicking a young man who was kneeling on the ground, crying and pleading. The woman even put her hands on her hips and yelled curses at the man.

There was a door panel on the ground, and an immobile middle-aged man was lying on it, angrily yelling at the woman.

But every time he said a word or two, he held his chest and coughed non-stop. There were a lot of blood stains on the clothes on his chest, and there was a big mouthful of blood on the ground in front of him.

"father!"

Qi Tiandong shouted sadly and threw himself at the man lying on the ground.

And his shout made the three people who were fighting and scolding all stunned. They looked at the young man who should have died outside in disbelief, and they forgot to react for a moment.

"Dad, how are you? Why are you lying outside? Where is your quilt? Are you cold?"

Qi Tiandong first hugged the man on the ground tightly, then let go and looked eagerly at his father who was supposed to be lying on the bed in the room.

Shopkeeper Qi was already coughing so much that he could barely breathe. When his son hugged him, he almost rolled his eyes and lost his breath.

After being released, he didn't care about his body that was about to faint. He grabbed his son's arm and pushed himself up with difficulty. He wiped his eyes vigorously with one hand for fear that he would be dazzled.

"Dong'er, you're back? Are you really back? Nothing happened to you? That's great! Cough cough cough cough... Poof!"

After finishing a long sentence, Shopkeeper Qi coughed violently. Before his son could answer, he spat out a large mouthful of blood and fainted.

"father!"

Qi Tiandong hurriedly hugged his father's body and shook him, trying to wake him up.

"Are you going to shake your father to death?"

Qiao Ran, who then walked into the yard, saw this, frowned, stepped forward, pulled the man away, and put the fainted man back on the door panel.

Only then did Qi Tiandong think of Qiao Ran's existence. He immediately knelt down on the ground and kowtowed:

"Miss Qiao, you have great medical skills. Please show it to my dad! Why did he vomit so much blood? He fainted. Please save my dad! Please!"

Qiao Ran waved her hand to signal him to get up.

"Let's carry him into the house first. It's cold outside and his bones can't bear it."

"Okay! Okay! Angelica, come here and carry my dad in with me!"

He stood up from the ground and was about to lift the door panel.

The waiter who was kneeling on the ground and was beaten with a bruised nose and face was stunned when he saw the young master coming back. Now when he heard the young master calling him, he quickly got up from the ground and came to help carry the man.

But as soon as he stood up, the young man among the two men and one woman who surrounded him kicked him hard on the knee, knocking him back to the ground.

The young man was still cursing:

"Who gave you permission to get up? Kneel down! You ignorant bitch! This drug store is going to change its owner in the future. If you don't give me any knowledge, do you want to be sold out?"

Upon seeing this, Qi Tiandong glared at the young man angrily:

"Cousin, what are you talking about? This medicine shop was passed down from my ancestors in the Qi family. My father and I are still here. Who told you that the medicine shop is going to change its owner? And Angelica is an orphan adopted by my father since he was a child. He is not a slave, and even if he is, you have no right to sell him!"

Hearing this, the young man raised the corners of his mouth, looked at Qi Tiandong's obviously injured right foot with disdain, and sneered:

"Qi Tiandong, I didn't expect you to survive so hard! You haven't been bitten to death by wild beasts in the mountains for so many days. Is this a disaster that will last thousands of years? Why don't you just die outside? What are you doing here? I gave you that disease Will tuber dad collect the corpse?"
