Chapter 1378: Chapter 1378: I Came to Find You
Mrs. Tan finished speaking and added with a trace of sarcasm, âI was wondering how that old man got so bold, going around talking nonsense without real medical skills, daring to visit people for treatment without fear of causing a death. Now I see itâs because he has Monarch Lu Xiang backing him.â
Old Master Tan coughed lightly and shot Mrs. Tan a disapproving look.
Mrs. Tan was frustrated, having been troubled by Young Master Tanâs prolonged illness, which had become a persistent worry.
Even if the other party is Monarch Lu Xiang, so what? She isnât afraid.
âMonarch Lu Xiang, donât blame me for speaking bluntly, but your familyâs old man has collided with us now. We are just powerless merchants and canât do anything to him. However, if he continues like this, and falls into the hands of those in power, not only will Monarch Lu Xiang not be able to protect him, he might even cause trouble for you.â
Old Master Tan frowned, âEnough, why say these things?â
Mrs. Tan pursed her lips, hesitated, and chose not to continue.
Who would have thought that Shu Yu would smile and say, âThank you, Mrs. Tan, for the reminder.â
Knowing what had happened and realizing that neither were hurt, Shu Yu felt reassured.
Mrs. Tan was taken aback, not expecting her to say that.
Shu Yu, âEither way, the priority is to first find the people. We can discuss how to resolve everything face-to-face when we meet them, donât you agree?â
âMonarch Lu Xiang speaks the truth.â
Old Master Tan quickly turned to instruct the household servants to look everywhere and find them as soon as possible.
Before they left, Shu Yu said, âPlease, when youâre searching, call out and say that Iâve come.â
She thought that if they didnât announce this, Old Doctor Zhao might hide and never show himself.
Having practiced medicine for many years, traveling far and wide, he has a plethora of methods to remain hidden, surely making it effortless to not be found.
Didnât you hear Mrs. Tan earlier? Even locked inside a room with guards watching, he could escape with Ah Ning without alerting anyone.
Even if Old Doctor Zhao doesnât practice martial arts, itâs impossible for ordinary folks to keep an eye on him.
This is why the Lu family trusts him to go wherever with Ah Ning.
Shu Yu was led back to the front hall by Old Master Tan to have tea and wait, and her approach proved effective, as shortly after, Old Doctor Zhao and Ah Ning appeared in front of her.
âSecond Sister.â Ah Ning ran in quickly, hugged Shu Yuâs waist, and looked up at her eagerly, âSecond Sister, why are you here?â
âIâm here to find you both.â
She took a good look at the two of them, seeing they were indeed unharmed and in good spirits, she felt assured.
However, Old Master Tan and Mrs. Tanâs faces grew even more unpleasant upon seeing Old Doctor Zhao.
Old Master Tan took a deep breath, âMonarch Lu Xiang, for your sake, we wonât pursue todayâs matter. Please take this old man away.â
Shu Yu indeed intended to take Old Doctor Zhao away immediately, although her family and the Tan Family at least had some business dealings.
The Tan Family wasnât as ruthless as the medical staff had claimed, driving doctors to their deaths when they visited the mansion.
If Young Master Tan really doesnât survive three months, the Tan Family discovers Old Doctor Zhaoâs identity later, with their coupleâs heavy concern for Young Master Tan, resentment would likely arise in their hearts.
Better to make friends than enemies.
Thus, Shu Yu didnât leave; she approached Old Doctor Zhao and quietly asked him a few questions.
