Unrivaled Miracle Doctor: The God-Defying Demonic Consort-Chapter 121: Still Fell Into the Trap

Qin Yiyao glanced at her, puzzled, thinking she was worried about her relationship with the Crown Prince, and shook her head in refusal: "No need, I will stay with you today. Besides, with Miss Bai’s current condition, it’s better to have a woman nearby."

"Fool!" Mu Qingge cursed silently in her heart.

At this moment, she couldn’t overly provoke Qin Jinxiu. Otherwise, if this guy went crazy, it was hard to say how today’s outcome would be.

Since Qin Yiyao didn’t want to leave, Mu Qingge could only quickly drive Qin Jinxiu away to deal with the incense burner.

Her gaze shifted, and Mu Qingge said to herself, "Huh? I think I heard footsteps. Could it be the Empress bringing people here?"

Qin Jinxiu felt tense inside, but Mu Qingge’s words, though harsh, had already calmed him down.

He had his father watching in front, and Prince Rui eyeing aggressively from behind; he absolutely couldn’t give anyone a handle against him. Suppressing the anger in his heart, Qin Jinxiu finally released Bai Xiyue and stood up.

"Clean up well for this Crown Prince, or else... hmph." With a haughty remark, Qin Jinxiu left the side hall, afraid of being caught if he tarried even a moment longer.

As soon as Qin Jinxiu left, Qin Yiyao ran over to Bai Xiyue, pulling down a brocade cloth to wrap around her body.

Mu Qingge walked directly to the incense burner, snorted coldly, and overturned it onto the ground, stomping out the burning incense.

After finishing all this, Mu Qingge then said to Qin Yiyao: "Try to take good care of her." With that, she left the side hall and waited outside on the steps.

It didn’t take long before the Empress arrived, leading a large entourage.

Seeing Mu Qingge standing outside the side hall from afar, she asked: "Mu Lord, why are you standing here? I heard Miss Bai was missing, and I’m sending people out to search for her."

Mu Qingge sneered inwardly, thinking perhaps this woman hurried over because she heard news about her son disappearing together with Bai Xiyue.

And those noblewomen who followed along likely couldn’t refuse her, reluctantly tagging along.

"Report to the Empress, Xiyue has been found. It turns out she accidentally took a fall, and now Princess Changle is helping her in the palace’s side hall to tend to her injuries and clean off stains from her clothes," Mu Qingge replied calmly, without a trace of falsehood.

Her answer eased the Empress’s tense heartstrings. Showing a faint smile, she nodded: "It’s good that she’s found. Since Princess Changle is with her, I won’t go in. If there’s any need, just instruct the palace maids."

"Thank you, Empress," Mu Qingge said, lowering her gaze.

Afterward, the Empress glanced at the tightly closed door of the side hall behind Mu Qingge, then left with her group in grand fashion.

Only after the Empress and others disappeared from sight did the door behind Mu Qingge slowly open.

Qin Yiyao walked out and said to Mu Qingge: "Miss Bai seems to have injured her rib and can’t move around. I’ve ordered the carriage to be brought here and we’ll leave shortly."

Mu Qingge slightly nodded, agreeing to her arrangement.

Seeing Mu Qingge’s agreement, Qin Yiyao went down to make arrangements. This ice-princess seemed to be showing a gradually virtuous side.

Before long, Princess Changle’s carriage slowly moved into the side hall.

Qin Yiyao, somewhat troubled, said to Mu Qingge: "After all, Miss Bai is a bride-to-be, and I’m afraid my guards aren’t suitable to touch her. The maids fear accidentally moving her wounds, causing her rib to shift."

Mu Qingge looked at her, waited for her to finish speaking, then asked, "What do you want?"

Qin Yiyao lightly bit her lip, lowered her gaze, and said: "You grew up with her, why not carry her into the carriage?"

Mu Qingge said with a faint smile, "You’re kind-hearted."

Qin Yiyao’s face turned pale, remaining silent. From the heart, she didn’t want Mu Qingge to have close contact with Bai Xiyue. However, Bai Xiyue’s condition stirred a sense of pity within her.

Her silence made Mu Qingge sigh inwardly. He lightly patted her cheek twice: "Having a kind heart is good, but also consider the recipient. Have you heard the story of the farmer and the snake?"

Qin Yiyao shook her head in a daze.

Mu Qingge smirked and said: "I’ll tell you another day." With that, he went into the side hall.

Yet, in truth, Qin Yiyao hadn’t really heard what Mu Qingge said, her heart was unsettled by his sudden affectionate gesture.

By the time she regained her composure, Mu Qingge was already carrying Bai Xiyue out, directly onto the carriage.

As she watched their figures disappear into the carriage, Qin Yiyao felt a sour feeling rising in her heart.

Just as she felt despondent and lost, a dazzling red figure belonging to Mu Qingge emerged again from the carriage and called out to her: "Not coming up yet? What are you waiting for?" 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

Under Mu Qingge’s gaze, Qin Yiyao’s frozen heart blossomed with a hint of sweetness.

She flashed a smile like the gentle spring breeze for the first time and got on the carriage.

The carriage slowly rolled out of the Royal Hunting Ground.

Perhaps, Bai Xiyue, who proactively asked to come, never expected to return to the Mu Mansion in such a disheveled state.

She didn’t get to meet any of the nobility, nearly ending up with the Crown Prince...

Thinking of the danger earlier in the side hall, Bai Xiyue’s tears fell again.

With a rib injury, she could only lie flat. Otherwise, any slight movement risked serious internal injuries.

Therefore, more than half of the space in the carriage was taken up by Bai Xiyue lying flat.

Fortunately, she possessed a middle rank in the Yellow Realm, enabling her to withstand such injuries. With careful recovery, there would be no major issues, offering her some relief.

Originally thinking she was doomed this time, unexpectedly, Mu Qingge was the one to save her.

This wastrel seemed not entirely useless.

As Bai Xiyue lay in the carriage, recalling Mu Qingge eloquently talking before that terrifying Crown Prince, saving her with just a few words, she felt moved.

Inside her, the strange restlessness that was overlooked due to her injuries seemed to begin flaring up again.

Gradually, Bai Xiyue’s pale cheeks turned flush with heat.

However, since she was lying down, the other two individuals on the other side did not notice.

"Qingge..." Bai Xiyue occupied half of the carriage space, forcing Qin Yiyao and Mu Qingge to squeeze together on the other side.

Hearing a slightly trembling voice from behind, Mu Qingge turned his eyes back.

What he saw was a delicate, charming Qin Yiyao, her eyes like water.

"What’s wrong with you?" Mu Qingge asked with a frown.

"I... I don’t know why I feel so hot and my body is weak," Qin Yiyao murmured softly, even her previously icy voice carrying a hint of seductiveness.
