Seeing that the situation was getting worse, Peony suddenly shouted, "Get out of the way, you'll have to bear the consequences if you bump into them!"
She threw caution to the wind and pushed the young lady forward. Everyone moved aside, but they were reluctant to let them go and chased them into the alley.
The carriage was parked in the alley, and it would be safer once they got on.
However, Qin Min couldn't possibly get on the carriage herself in front of everyone, right? And Peony didn't have the strength to carry her up. The coachman was one of Gu Beiyue's men, and he was a thirteen or fourteen-year-old youth. He couldn't carry Qin Min either!
What should they do?
Qin Min looked at Peony, and Peony looked back at Qin Min, both dumbfounded. The medical school was in the north of the city. Qin Min had just changed into a wheelchair when they arrived here in a carriage. Did Peony have to push her back?
The youth saw that the situation wasn't right and whispered to Peony, "Hurry and get help. I'll hold them off."
Peony didn't dare to move. Seeing Qin Min nod, she left.
Qin Min didn't remove her veil. She lowered her head and didn't speak. The pageboy stood in front of her protectively and shouted.
"What are you doing? Disperse! Disperse! "
"What are you looking at? How dare you be rude to the dean's wife. Are you rebelling? You, you, and the one beside you. What's his name? Which family is he from? "
…
Everyone retreated when the pageboy yelled at them. However, before they could disperse, a middle-aged man came forward.
"My surname is Li Zhao. I've heard so much about the dean's wife. It's my great fortune to meet you today. Dean's wife … "
Before he could finish, the youth interrupted, "Dean's wife is resting. Please don't disturb her. Let's go."
Li Zhao ignored the youth and continued, "Dean's wife, I've contracted a strange illness. My heart hurts every day, and I can't eat or sleep at night. I beg the dean to be kind and take a look at me."
Qin Min saw his expression and knew that he was faking it. His health was very good.
She wasn't stupid and didn't argue. She only said, "Go to the medical school. There'll be a medical assistant to arrange the time."
Unexpectedly, Li Zhao suddenly clutched his chest and shouted, "Ouch, it hurts!"
Then, he knelt on one knee and pretended to be having difficulty breathing. "Dean's wife, save … save me! Save me! "
"Lin Yue, take his pulse." Qin Min said lightly.
The young man immediately stepped forward. After taking his pulse, he said, "Madam, his pulse is normal. There's no strange illness."
Just as Qin Min was about to speak, Li Zhao rolled on the ground and cried out in pain.
Qin Min ignored her. Just as she was about to let the other doctors take her pulse, a dissatisfied voice came from the crowd. "Aiyo, how can a little medical apprentice see the focus of the illness? Madam, this is a matter of life and death. Hurry up and save her!"
"That's right, Madam Dean, you can't learn from your father and leave him in the lurch!"
"You're already in so much pain. Madam, a doctor has the heart of a parent. What is your heart made of?"
…
Qin Min was slightly shocked. Only then did she realize that Li Zhao did not come alone. There was a group of people behind him! The newcomer … did not seem to be friendly at all! If she were to personally take his pulse, who knows what would happen?
Just as Qin Min was hesitating, a man suddenly stood out from the crowd. Qin Min recognized him. He was the Fourth Young Master of the Wei Clan, a fifth-grade Fairy Doctor.
After taking Li Zhao's pulse, the Fourth Young Master sneered. "A person who's not sick is pretending to be sick and making things difficult for Madam Dean on the street. What are your intentions?"
"Aiyo … Aiyo …" Li Zhao was still curled up on the ground, groaning in pain.
"How can a strange illness be so easily diagnosed? Otherwise, he wouldn't have to beg Madam Dean."
"Haha, the people of the Qin Clan are all the same. If Sir Dean finds out about this, he can't play favoritism and play favoritism for Madam Dean! "
"He's already in so much pain. Madam Dean, please do a good deed and quickly take a look!"
…
Li Zhao's accomplices kept talking. Some were accusing others, some were pleading, and they soon incited the people around them.
Qin Min had no way out. She made a prompt decision. "Bring him over. Let me take a look! Quick! "
If they wanted to put on an act, she would accompany them to the end!
A few men hurried forward to help and carried Li Zhao over to Qin Min. After taking his pulse, Qin Min was shocked. "Aiyo, he's really sick!"
As she spoke, she took out the gold needles that she always carried with her. "I'll perform acupuncture now. The more painful it is, the more effective it will be. If you want to live, you have to bear with it."
A wretched look flashed across Li Zhao's eyes as he said, "Thank … thank you, Madam Dean."
Of course, he knew that Qin Min was beating him at his own game and wanted to torture him. His superiors had already made it clear that he was not here to make things difficult for Qin Min. He was here to humiliate Qin Min and Gu Beiyue!
Gu Beiyue wanted to hand the medical school over to the imperial court. If he did not pay the price, did he really think that the major clans were so easy to bully?
Just as Qin Min was about to perform the acupuncture, Li Zhao suddenly broke free from the people who were supporting him. He shouted, "Ouch!" and pounced on Qin Min …
Qin Min then realized Li Zhao's real motive. She could not dodge in time and was so frightened that she closed her eyes.
However, after waiting for a long time, Li Zhao did not pounce on her. The originally noisy surroundings instantly quietened down. It was so quiet that she could hear her own thumping heartbeat.
What was going on?
Qin Min carefully opened her eyes and saw the side profile that she was most familiar with!
The contours of this side profile were perfect and impeccable. He was so close to her that she could see his eyelashes. They were long, dense and black. They were extremely beautiful.
This side profile gave people an incomparably silent feeling as usual. However, it did not have the usual gentleness and was only penetrating coldness.
Regardless of whether he was cold or warm, in any case, he was here.
He was Gu Beiyue!
Her heart instantly calmed down.
Gu Beiyue bent over in front of Qin Min. With one hand behind her back, he used the other hand to grab Li Zhao's neck and easily blocked Li Zhao's entire body.
The surroundings were completely silent. No one clearly saw how Gu Beiyue had arrived. They only felt that this dean had appeared out of thin air.
Li Zhao was the most surprised. He was clearly about to pounce on Qin Min. He clearly could have pounced on her and pressed her on top of him. He could have used the excuse of being sick to get up. Who knew that Gu Beiyue would rush over so quickly?
After all, they had been following Qin Min when she was sent to prison. They had also sent people to find out that Gu Beiyue was giving a lecture.
Li Zhao was so frightened that he did not dare to move or speak. He was afraid that Gu Beiyue would tighten his grip and take his life.
In the silence, someone suddenly shouted, "The dean is here. He's saved, he's saved."
Once this was said, Li Zhao's accomplices slowly regained their senses.
"Dean, hurry up and take a look. This person was in so much pain that he was rolling on the floor."
"That's right, that's right. Aiyo, he's really lucky that the dean came personally."
…
"Now, does it still hurt?" Gu Beiyue's voice was as gentle as ever, but he still held Li Zhao's neck and did not let go.
Li Zhao did not dare to answer, nor did he dare to look into his eyes. He was so frightened that he almost wet his pants.
With Gu Beiyue's actions, everyone present could basically see that something was wrong. Li Zhao's accomplices actually did not give up. One of them actually asked directly, "Dean, are you saving a life or killing a person?"
Gu Beiyue turned around and looked over. He asked calmly, "Saving a person. There's a pulse on the neck. Eldest Young Master Chen, you're a fourth-rank doctor. Don't you know this common knowledge? In my opinion, you should start learning again as a medical apprentice. Who evaluated your medical skills? Later, I'll have to ask them properly! "
That Eldest Young Master Chen's eyes widened, and he was speechless. He did not expect Gu Beiyue to know his background, and even more did not expect that Gu Beiyue would answer with the words "there's a pulse on the neck".
Eldest Young Master Chen's medical skills were basically going to be crippled, and he would even implicate the person who gave him the medical skills. For a moment, everyone else shut up.
Everyone could see that Gu Beiyue was angry.
Gu Beiyue's slender fingers lightly touched Zhou Zhao's pulse. He said calmly, "It's indeed a strange illness that my wife can't treat. I'll personally treat you and guarantee that you'll be cured within three days. "
His voice was always calm and clear. No one could hear any emotion from it, but it was enough to send chills down one's spine. Li Zhao's legs turned to jelly.
Gu Beiyue let go of him and said calmly, "Men, take him back to the medical school and … take good care of him!"
Li Zhao finally could not take it anymore. He fell to his knees with a thud. "Dean, this little one knows his mistake! This little one was ordered by someone! I beg Dean to spare my life! "
The surroundings were quiet, and Li Zhao's pleas were especially loud.
Gu Beiyue did not look at him. Instead, he turned to look at the crowd. A hidden dart flew out from that direction, and its target was Li Zhao.
There was no doubt that the person behind this was going to silence him.
Gu Beiyue watched quietly. As the darts drew near, he suddenly kicked Li Zhao aside and used his other hand to send the darts tumbling back to where they'd come from.
The dart hit the culprit's shoulder, and the culprit was so shocked that he turned around and fled. Gu Beiyue ignored him, but the guards who came with him had already chased after him.
Everyone present finally understood what was going on, and no one dared to make a sound. Li Zhao was also scared silly and allowed the guards to take him away.
Qin Min witnessed everything and sighed in her heart. She did not dare to imagine what would have happened if Gu Beiyue had not arrived in time.
Gu Beiyue turned to look at her and said gently, "Madam, you must be frightened."
It had been a long time since she heard him call her "Madam," and Qin Min was a little startled. She felt that he was not calling her.
Gu Beiyue did not say anything and leaned over to hug her.
Whenever he came close, she would become nervous, whether it was the first time or now.
He placed one hand on her knee and the other on her back. She was sitting in a wheelchair, and her hands were still restrained. It was difficult for him to carry her.
He tried a few times, but to no avail. Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, he could only whisper in her ear, "Eldest Miss Qin, I'll carry you to the car. Sorry for the offense."
Qin Min's body was as tense as a rock. Her previous anger was all gone, leaving only nervousness.
"Thank you for your trouble," she said, but she still did not move.
Gu Beiyue had no choice but to whisper again, "Eldest Miss Qin, please lift your hand."
Qin Min finally understood what he meant and hurriedly lifted her right hand. Gu Beiyue's hand passed under her right hand and held her back. Only then did he find some strength to carry her into the carriage.
This scene made all the women present envious.
This was probably the first time anyone had seen Gu Beiyue so intimately with a woman, right?
All along, everyone had regarded the title of "Madam of the Dean" as a symbol of honor and status. But at this moment, everyone realized that the title of "Madam of the Dean" was equivalent to "Gu Beiyue's woman."
Gu Beiyue also sat in the carriage and ordered calmly, "Lin Yue, return to the medical school."
