Although Liu'er Qianqian's injury had nothing to do with Jiang Ming, Liu'er Yuanyuan and King Fengyu were unreasonable people. It was impossible to ignore them. They might even harm him.

Sikong Wuyuan did not want Ning Caichen to get into trouble with King Fengyu. He also felt that Liu'er Yuanyuan was a ruthless person.

Although he felt that Ning Caichen was a very capable person, he did not think that the latter could handle both King Fengyu and Liu'er Qianqian.

"I think it's better to let the Liu'er family pick up Liu'er Qianqian. Liu'er Qianqian's matter is not easy to resolve. So, it's best to let the Liu'er family pick her up now," Sikong Wuyuan suggested.

"But if Liu'er Yuanyuan doesn't let it go, then we'll undoubtedly be making things difficult for ourselves by doing this, won't we?"

Liang Sisi piped up at this moment. She felt that the situation was very tricky.

She also hoped that Liu'er Qianqian could return to her family.

This way, Liu'er Qianqian could get better care. However, the Liu'er family was a big problem.

"In my opinion, we must stop thinking about it. If Liu'er Qianqian goes back with injuries like this, the Liu'er family will definitely make a fuss. So, let's wait for Liu'er Qianqian to recover before sending her back."

Sikong Wuyuan felt like he was about to explode. He suggested something different.

Jiang Ming also felt that Sikong Wuyuan's words were very reasonable, so he said, "That's it. Let's go inform the Liu'er family and tell them that I'm taking Liu'er Qianqian out."

"Sure."

Sikong Wuyuan nodded.

"Sikong Wuyuan, I need you to do something for me. Go to the shop and get some medicine. These medicines are beneficial to Liu'er Qianqian's recovery."

Jiang Ming took out a brush and wrote down the names of some herbs on a piece of white paper.

Sikong Wuyuan nodded and immediately took the paper to buy medicine.

In the end, not long after he left, Madam Zhenguo came over alone.

"I heard that Sikong Wuyuan came to this inn. Can I take a look?"

Madam Zhenguo played with her hair in anticipation.

She hoped that this time, she would be able to see the old friend she had been longing to see day and night and return to how things used to be.

Jiang Ming and Liang Sisi panicked when they heard this. Sikong Wuyuan had already gone out to buy medicine.

If Sikong Wuyuan suddenly returned, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Jiang Ming gave Liang Sisi a look, telling her to go find Sikong Wuyuan and stop him from returning to the inn.

Liang Sisi knew what Jiang Ming meant and looked at Madam Zhenguo. "Madam Zhenguo, if you need anything, ask this young man. I'll leave first. I still need to buy some things in the shop."

Her excuse was very reasonable. Madam Zhenguo could not stop Liang Sisi, so she could only say, "Alright then, go ahead."

Liang Sisi glanced at Jiang Ming and left in a hurry.

Jiang Ming kindly greeted Madam Zhenguo. "Madam Zhenguo, please sit down first. We can talk about anything."

Madam Zhenguo was absent-minded as she sat on the stool. "Didn't you see a man with extraordinary looks here? I'm talking about the man who looked like he was working here."

Liang Sisi was surprised.

She had thought that Madam Zhenguo would not remember Sikong Wuyuan. She did not expect her to remember him so clearly.

Sikong Wuyuan had already bought the medicine. He took the medicine bag and walked happily toward his inn.

He bumped into Liang Sisi.

Seeing Sikong Wuyuan, Liang Sisi immediately pulled him to a dark alley.

Sikong Wuyuan was baffled by Liang Sisi's actions and asked curiously, "Liang Sisi, what are you doing? What do you want to do? Let me tell you, you can't do this in public!"

His words confused Liang Sisi. Then, she came to her senses and blurted out, "Madam Zhenguo is here to look for you. You have to hide now. You can't let Madam Zhenguo find you."

"Why did Madam Zhenguo come to find me? I don't want to see her."

Sikong Wuyuan had accepted his past fling with her.

He was now calm whenever they talked about her.

Liang Sisi sighed when she saw Sikong Wuyuan's attitude.

It had only been a short while, but Sikong Wuyuan had already calmed down. His control over his emotions was quite good.

"I don't know either. Madam Zhenguo came out of nowhere, and her words were rather strange as well."

Liang Sisi fell into deep thought and looked at Sikong Wuyuan.

She was really curious.

How did Madam Zhenguo know that Sikong Wuyuan was in that inn?

According to their fortune-telling, she thought that Madam Zhen had given up everything. In the end, she had not. She was still obsessed with Sikong Wuyuan. She was really persistent.

Sikong Wuyuan could not help but be curious. He continued to ask, "What did she say? Tell me."

Liang Sisi immediately recounted what Madam Zhenguo had told her and Jiang Ming. Sikong Wuyuan did not know what to say.

He had never thought that Madam Zhenguo would want to see him. It was fine if she just wanted to see him, but she seemed to want to talk to him as well?

What was going on? She had not even been like this when she had dumped him so long ago.

Sikong Wuyuan had become rather resentful.

Liang Sisi also felt that what Madam Zhenguo had done was not humane. She comforted Sikong Wuyuan and said, "This time, we can't fall for Madam Zhen's trap. We have to straighten things out and make her regret what she did back then."

Sikong Wuyuan felt that he had found a comrade in her and quickly gave her a thumbs up. "Liang Sisi, you're a great friend. Let's do it!"

Liang Sisi and Sikong Wuyuan immediately hit it off and discussed what to do to scare Madam Zhenguo.

In the end, they had a good discussion and decided to dress up as a ghost to scare Madam Zhenguo.

On Jiang Ming's side, Madam Zhenguo had yet to leave, and the two of them began to chat.

Madam Zhenguo told him many stories about her past with Sikong Wuyuan.
