The Divine Doctor And A Common Farmer-Chapter 1645 - 1732: Strong as an Ox

Bai Xian turned around and saw it was Qinghe, raising an eyebrow, "What kind of wind blows such that the Official Husband decides to visit me!"

A few days ago, Qinghe uncovered Bai Xian’s disguise. Although it didn’t cost Bai Xian his life, since then, Bai Xian couldn’t be bothered to pretend in front of Qinghe anymore.

Qinghe glanced around the clean and tidy kitchen, "This place with smoke and fire, it must be tiring for Young Master Bai. After all, to please a woman, especially one you don’t love, achieving this level is truly commendable."

Bai Xian’s face twitched hard, then he grinned sardonically, "The same goes for you, with the Official Husband shining so brightly ahead, how could my little skill compare to you?" This was clearly stating that Qinghe had sided with the Eighth Princess years ago. They were evenly matched, Qinghe mocked him, so he also made fun of Qinghe. In short, they always stabbed each other metaphorically, and every time one did, the other retaliated just as swiftly.

Qinghe raised his eyelids slightly, "I’m here to discuss serious business with you, my lord!"

Bai Xian chuckled disdainfully, "If you had said that earlier, wouldn’t it have been fine? Why beat around the bush?"

After saying that, Bai Xian took a sip of the chicken soup he had reserved for himself, savoring its taste contentedly.

Qinghe gave him a sidelong look, "I thought the two of us had agreed not to interfere with each other. But this time, you’ve gone too far."

Bai Xian was a bit stunned, thinking, is this man crazy? "Spit it out, if you have something to say, don’t play these games. I’m a simpleton, and I truly don’t understand all these winding twists."

Qinghe frowned slightly, then laid it all out, cutting to the chase, "You’ve directed your accusations at me and lured the Eighth Princess to deal with me. Are you planning to break with me openly? If that’s the case, then I will no longer show you any mercy!"

The reason for not taking Bai Xian’s life before, letting such a person stay so close, was actually because of Baobao. But if this person keeps pushing their luck, a bit of retaliation wouldn’t be out of order.

Bai Xian had a look of angry amusement, "Has the Official Husband misunderstood? As you said, I’ve been busy pleasing the Eighth Princess recently, where would I find the time to deal with you?" He would like to deal with him, but one must also be self-aware.

Qinghe is a tough nut to crack, Bai Xian knew this well. And since he had already shown his hand to Qinghe, Qinghe would undoubtedly be wary of him.

Therefore, without absolute certainty, he wouldn’t act rashly. Since Qinghe was hard to deal with, he should deal with the Eighth Princess first, and it wouldn’t be too late to take on Qinghe afterward.

Qinghe was suspicious, "Are you sure it wasn’t you?"

Bai Xian said, "The Official Husband must have offended too many people to the point where you can’t even figure out who has wronged you? Frankly, I’m not very clever, but the Official Husband’s influence is far greater, incomparable to mine. This much, I’m quite clear about."

Qinghe scrutinized him for a long while, then sighed. He turned to leave but suddenly paused, "There’s Cold Poison Grass in that chicken soup... aren’t you afraid of being poisoned?"

Bai Xian laughed, "I may lack in skills, but my health is robust, so you need not worry, my lord."

Qinghe, hearing this, shook his head slightly but thought to himself... what kind of constitution does this Bai Xian have?

Unaffected by the Mind-Bewitching Gu, unafraid of the Cold Poison Grass’s erosion, even Gu Poison can’t harm him in the slightest, quite remarkable indeed...
