Chapter 247 Miss Yun
Yun Fuzhao looked in the direction of the sound and saw Lian Sheng, dressed in white, carrying a small basket on her back, walking in.
He explained, “I helped a family of shepherds, and they brought me a leg of lamb today. There are only two of us in Tianshan, Xiaohe and I, and we can’t finish this much. So I thought I’d bring it to you so you can have a taste.”
Yun Fuzhao stood up. "Since you're here, come and try it with us."
"No, I..."
Before Lian Sheng could finish speaking, the hospitable Yun Fuzhao pulled her forward.
Xunliu gestured excitedly, "Can you smell it? It smells amazing!"
Yun Fuzhao really took a closer sniff; the air was filled with the aroma of cumin-flavored roasted meat, so fragrant that tears streamed down her face.
Roasted lamb leg—just hearing the name makes me hungry.
She was so focused on the roasted lamb leg that she forgot to let go of Lian Sheng's wrist, holding it tightly as if afraid he would run away.
The warmth of her palms flowed through their skin, causing Lian Sheng to flinch uncomfortably, but Yun Fu Zhao held on even tighter.
She said, "Even though I'm fasting, it's nice to occasionally enjoy some delicious food."
Lian Sheng then stopped struggling.
My gaze followed the swaying ends of her hair as she walked.
Actually, he had just returned from gathering medicinal herbs and could have easily had Xiao He deliver this to him; there was no need for him to make the trip himself...
After his delirium was cured, the two hadn't seen each other for some time.
She was busy with matters in the Northern Continent, while I was also traveling around treating cultivators. Today was a rare occasion, as both of us had some free time.
When Yun Fuzhao led Lian Sheng there, Bu Xiuwei and the others were sitting together, chatting and laughing.
Upon seeing Yun Fuzhao arrive, the group greeted him warmly, "Quickly, Yun Chao, the lamb leg is almost ready."
Chang San noticed Lian Sheng behind her and looked surprised. "A miracle doctor?"
Upon hearing this, everyone else displayed the same expression.
Although Lian Sheng practiced medicine and often taught privately, he rarely interacted with others in private.
The powerful families of the Northern Continent are clearly divided, and as a neutral party, any alliance he forms with any of them would be seen as taking sides.
So aside from medical treatment, he spent most of his time in the Tianshan Mountains.
Yun Fuzhao pulled him to sit in the empty seat and handed him the wine jar beside him, "Would you like to try some?"
Just as Lian Sheng was about to refuse, she heard her say, "It's fruit wine, and it doesn't have a high alcohol content."
Since she said so, Lian Sheng reached out and took the bowl, pouring herself a small bowl.
He tasted a little; it was slightly sweet, with a mild alcohol flavor, and tasted pretty good.
Yun Fuzhao quite liked the fruit wine here and poured himself a large bowlful.
"Where's Zhiyue?" Yun Fuzhao looked around but didn't see her. "Hasn't she come back yet?"
Xun Liu replied, "No, I don't think she'll be back today. I heard from others that the entire Yu family is entertaining their daughter who's been brought back, it's quite lively right now."
Thinking of the profit-driven nature of the Yu couple, Yun Fuzhao figured that Yu Zhiyue was probably going to suffer again.
The thought had barely formed when Fu Qiuling exclaimed in surprise, "Zhiyue..."
"Speak of Cao Cao—"
The second half of the sentence stuck in his throat.
Yun Fuzhao stared at Yu Zhiyue's swollen half-face, his expression slightly frozen.
Yu Zhiyue noticed her gaze and instinctively covered it with her hand.
Xun Liu said angrily, "Did those two old bastards beat you up again?"
Bu Xiuwei: "Even a tiger wouldn't eat its own cubs, those two are worse than animals."
"The Yu family, right? Call me, I'll go and kill them."
Upon hearing this, Yu Zhiyue's lips curled up slightly, and the heavy clouds that had been pressing down on her heart were gently blown away, making her feel instantly lighter.
She sat to Yun Fuzhao's left and said casually, "I have left the Yu family. From now on, I have nothing to do with the Yu family."
Everyone was shocked.
It takes considerable courage to make such a move.
In the Northern Continent, the lowest status is that of a rogue cultivator without the backing of a powerful family. Moreover, she had not just broken away from an ordinary family, but from the renowned Yu family.
Although Yun Fuzhao was also surprised, her choice was wise. After Yu Nian'er arrived, her living space became even narrower.
Yun Fuzhao cut off a large piece of lamb foreleg and handed it to her, praising, "As expected of my Yun Dynasty's disciple, you have guts."
“Master,” Yu Zhiyue blinked, “I didn’t leave for nothing; I had to bring back something. Here, take this.”
She handed me a long box.
"what is this?"
“It was left to me by my grandmother. She loved me the most in the family,” Yu Zhiyue said. “She said that I would have a benefactor to help me in the future, and this is a gift she left for me to give to that benefactor in return.”
My only benefactor is you, Master, so this is for you.
"We're all family, no need to be so polite. By the way, how do I open this box?"
"My grandmother said it would automatically open at crucial moments. My grandmother is a fortune teller, very accurate."
That sounds really awesome.
Yun Fuzhao readily agreed and carefully put the box away.
Although the others were surprised by Yu Zhiyue's choice, after being together for so long, they were genuinely happy for her to escape her suffering.
They all raised their glasses to congratulate her.
The atmosphere was warm and harmonious.
As night deepened, the group had enjoyed themselves to the fullest. Bu Xiuwei and Chang San were so drunk that they were completely unconscious and could barely walk.
Bian Luo carried one drunkard on each shoulder, struggling to bring them back to his residence.
Yu Zhiyue was also drunk, and she hugged Xun Liu and Fu Qiuling, crying bitterly.
"Yun Chao, we're leaving now. The divine doctor is in your care."
Okay. Slow down.
Yun Fuzhao watched them stagger away with a smile, and only after they were out of sight did she speak: "Let's go, Divine Doctor, I'll take you back to Tianshan."
After a long while, there was still no response from him.
Yun Fuzhao turned his head and saw Lian Sheng leaning against the tree trunk, holding a wine jar in his arms, his eyes red and his gaze unfocused.
She walked towards him, took the wine jar, and shook it. Good heavens, it was empty.
She was so busy chatting with Yu Zhiyue and the others that she didn't even notice he had finished all his wine.
Although it's fruit wine, drinking too much can still get you drunk.
Yun Fuzhao held up his hand and made a "one" gesture in front of him. "Liansheng, how many is this?"
Upon hearing his name, he looked at Yun Fuzhao, his gaze unfocused. It took him a long time to discern the meaning before he finally spoke: "Yi."
"Wrong, this is number two."
"..."
Lian Sheng was quite puzzled. He grabbed Yun Fuzhao's hand and murmured, "It's clearly one."
Yun Fuzhao revealed a triumphant smile. "Show me how you walk in a straight line."
[Enough, Hachiyun, stop treating him like a toy.]
Yun Fuzhao smiled憨厚ly and pulled Lian Sheng up, "Let's go, I'll take you back."
“Yun…” Lian Sheng paused for a moment, as if thinking about her name.
“Yun Fuzhao”.
“Miss Yun,” Lian Sheng looked down at her, “I’m not drunk, I… I’m just a little dizzy.”
"You can't even walk steadily, who would believe you if you said that?"
Yun Fuzhao helped him up. Lian Sheng looked thin, but he was surprisingly heavy when lifted up.
“Miss Yun, I really shouldn’t have come here today.”
Yun Fuzhao looked straight ahead and replied as if coaxing a child, "Then why did you come?"
"Because, because..."
