Chapter 265: To Xie Mansion

Chapter 265: To Xie Mansion

As Su Youyue walked out of Wisteria Garden, many servants in the Su Mansion were stunned, some even dropping the basins they were holding.

They had already heard that their young miss's legs had healed, but since Su Youyue had only been practicing walking within Wisteria Garden and hadn't ventured out, this was their first time seeing her walk with their own eyes.

"The young miss can actually walk now. It's truly miraculous!"

"I thought I was dreaming in broad daylight, seeing our young miss walk! What a joyous occasion!"

"How else could it be said that the doctor we invited is a divine physician... It seems our young miss is indeed blessed to have another chance to stand and walk properly."

Watching Su Youyue leave, everyone marveled, and the news spread quickly.

When Su Youyue reached the carriage, Chunya and Jin'er instinctively moved forward to help her get in, but she climbed in on her own, turning back to see the two maids still in a daze.

"What are you waiting for? Quickly help Doctor Ji get in."

The two girls snapped back to reality and went to assist Doctor Ji, but Ji Qingyan hopped into the carriage faster than they could react.

"Hurry up, don't dawdle!" Ji Qingyan urged.

Everyone got into the carriage, and soon they arrived outside Xie Mansion.

The guards at Xie Mansion looked more serious than usual. They knew their master faced greater risks due to his position and official duties, but this was the first time they encountered an assassination attempt on Xie Yuan. They were all on high alert.

Seeing a carriage stop directly in front of their gate, the lead guard was about to ask sternly when he recognized a familiar maid jumping down from the carriage.

Isn't that the lady's maid?

The guard's expression changed faster than a stage actor's.

Still, he said, "Miss, today our master was attacked and is still unconscious. The mansion isn't suitable for visitors right now. Please return."

Jin'er waved her hand. "Brother, why don't you inform Guardsman Gao again? Our miss heard about the attack on Lord Xie and came here with Doctor Ji out of concern."

The guard was momentarily stunned, almost not recognizing which miss Jin'er referred to. Then, his head snapped towards the carriage.

The... Lady herself has come?

He didn't know who Doctor Ji was, but he certainly knew who the Lady was. He quickly waved his hand, signaling his subordinates to clear the way.

"Quickly, bring the wooden boards so that the... Lady's wheelchair can pass easily."

In the Su Mansion, thresholds were removed wherever possible for Su Youyue's convenience, but most places outside were different, with many thresholds. Xie Mansion, built decades ago, also had numerous thresholds.

Fortunately, they had prepared many wooden ramps as per the master's instructions, allowing wheelchairs to pass through easily.

Just as the guard finished speaking, Su Youyue lifted the curtain and stepped out herself. "No need."

"Ah?" The guard turned around in confusion, seeing an exceptionally beautiful girl approaching him.

A person with such striking beauty left a profound impact, and the man was mesmerized. Then, another equally beautiful woman descended from behind her, leaving him momentarily stunned, trying to look both ways at once.

Su Youyue, impatient, walked straight into Xie Mansion without waiting for a response.

The other guards watched her dumbfounded, though they didn't yet realize she was the Lady, they knew she was from the Su Mansion and did not stop her.

Only after the group entered did the guards snap back to reality, looking at each other in disbelief.

"Was that girl the Lady?!"

"The Lady can walk?!"

"Wow, I never expected the Lady to be so heavenly beautiful. When she walked by, I thought a celestial maiden had descended."

"No, which one is the Lady? I couldn't tell..."

The guards murmured among themselves, their hearts still racing.

Once inside Xie Mansion, Su Youyue headed straight for Xie Yuan's room, a path she knew well from countless visits in her previous life.

Chunya initially wanted to ask if they needed someone to guide them but saw her miss's quick pace and couldn't ask, following her in a hurry.

Upon entering a courtyard, Chunya saw Gao Sheng and Li Ying and realized they had followed their miss all the way to Lord Xie's residence, wondering how she knew the way so well.

"Miss Su?" Gao Sheng was surprised to see Su Youyue and quickly approached, glancing at her legs.

Su Youyue frowned deeply. "How is he?"

Gao Sheng remembered the master's injuries and lost his composure, his brows furrowing. "Those bastards used such vile hidden weapons against the master. The doctor said one of the weapons has penetrated deep into his lungs, and he dared not remove it..."

As he spoke, he noticed Doctor Ji behind Su Youyue, his eyes brightening.

Though others didn't know Doctor Ji, as the master's confidant, he did.

Ji Qingyan felt his gaze and said directly, "I'll go in and take a look."

I didn't expect the kid to be hurt so badly.

If he dies, won't Miss Su cry her heart out?

Although Ji Qingyan didn't want to admit Su Youyue as his disciple and avoid too much involvement, he had grown fond of her character and her talent in medicine over the past few days.

If this were in modern times, he wouldn't hesitate to take her as his closed-door disciple.

Ji Qingyan was about to enter when he looked at Su Youyue: "Come in as well."

"This..." Gao Sheng felt it was inappropriate. The master was now stark naked; letting the female doctor in was one thing, but allowing Miss Su to enter would surely lead to his own punishment later.

But Su Youyue seemed to give no chance for Gao Sheng to speak, following Ji Qingyan directly into the room.

As soon as they entered, both of them were hit by a strong smell of blood, still potent despite being diluted by water.

Su Youyue quickly walked to the bedside, looking at the man who had seemed so tall and unbreakable just the day before. Now, with pain etched on his furrowed brow and pale lips, her heart tightened even more.

"Xie Yuan..." she called softly, thinking the sleeping man wouldn't wake, but unexpectedly, he suddenly opened his eyes.
