Chapter 10 Miss, help me

She screamed and struggled to get up. But Lin Luochen held her head and pushed her into the water. She struggled hard and was pushed down again.

In desperation, she begged loudly, "Miss, please spare me! Please!"

Lin Luochen finally let go of her and crossed his arms, saying, "This is just giving someone a taste of their own medicine."

After Bai Mei crawled out and fled, Lin Luochen smirked and took out a packet of medicine powder from the medical cabinet, carefully wiping his hands.

Soon, Chunyue hurried in and asked, "Miss, are you okay?"

Lin Luochen's eyes softened instantly, shaking her head, "I'm fine! Find someone to clean up here, I'm going to the hot spring for a bath!"

"Okay..." Chunyue confirmed that Lin Luochen was fine, then noticed the mess in the room and asked, "What happened? Why did Bai Mei run out all wet and scared?"

Lin Luochen smirked evilly, "You'll find out tomorrow!"

Chunyue accompanied Lin Luochen to the hot spring.

As the autumn rain drizzled down, Lin Luochen, despite wearing a cloak, still felt cold. Chunyue said, "Miss, I'll go get you another shawl and a small padded jacket! Don't catch a cold!"

Lin Luochen nodded and said, "Alright! Hurry back!"

While waiting for Chunyue to return, Lin Luochen paced back and forth behind the rockery, shivering in the cold wind.

Suddenly, she saw a figure and screamed. In an instant, the figure rushed over, holding a cold knife to her neck.

Lin Luochen held her breath and asked, "Who are you?"

The person, with a slightly trembling voice, said with his back to her, "You must not breathe a word about seeing me today, or I'll take your life!"

Lin Luochen already had a tranquilizer gun in her hand and quickly aimed it at his abdomen, coldly saying, "I hate being threatened by others!"

The person glanced at the tranquilizer gun and put down the knife. His voice was deep and slightly excited, "It's you!"

Lin Luochen turned around and saw a pair of eyes shining like stars. Although he was wearing a mask, his eyes and eyebrows were so familiar!

She still didn't retract her gun but relaxed her guard a bit, "What are you doing here?"

Li Wang's eyes sparkled and he smiled beautifully, but Lin Luochen couldn't see the curve of his lips. He said, "I'm being chased and sought refuge here!"

Lin Luochen pointed the gun at him and asked, "Are you injured?" She smelled blood.

"Yes, on my previous wound," he replied.

Lin Luochen frowned slightly and put away the tranquilizer gun, handing him a bottle of special hemostatic medicine, "I'll sell it to you for a hundred taels!"

"Sell it?" Li Wang raised an eyebrow, "That's expensive?"

"You've seen my medical skills. Whether you buy it or not is up to you!" Lin Luochen said, taking the medicine back.

Li Wang grabbed the bottle, but unexpectedly held her hand. It was so soft and cold.

"I... I'll buy it!" Li Wang's ears turned slightly red.

"Give me the money and leave!" Lin Luochen thought Chunyue would be back soon.

Li Wang shook his head, thinking this girl was really greedy! He took out a silver note and handed it to Lin Luochen.

Lin Luochen looked at it and found it was five hundred taels, "This is too much!"

"It's your reward for saving me last time!" Li Wang said.

"Okay!" Lin Luochen didn't hesitate to accept the money. After a moment, she said, "Then we're even!"

Li Wang's eyebrows furrowed into a line, "Who said we're even? We have a long way to go!"

He heard footsteps not far away, looked deeply at Lin Luochen, and then left. Lin Luochen watched his figure disappear into the night and smiled.

Chunyue came over with an oilcloth umbrella, and Lin Luochen naturally took it. She took off Lin Luochen's cloak and put on the padded jacket for her. As she did, she said, "I don't know why Bai Mei was crying so loudly!"

Lin Luochen tied her cloak and said, "Don't mind her! I'll teach her a lesson tomorrow!"

Although Chunyue didn't understand what she meant, she believed that as long as it was something Miss did, it wouldn't be wrong.

The two of them, mistress and servant, walked slowly through the rainy night towards the hot spring...

The next day, while Lin Luochen was still asleep, she heard Bai Mei wailing at the door. She got up and told Xiaying, "Make her kneel outside and don't let her in! And tell her to stop crying!"

After Xiaying went out to deliver the message, the mournful crying abruptly stopped.

When she returned, Xiaying said, "Miss, she has a terrible rash on her face and hands!"

Lin Luochen nodded, "Yes! She tried to drug me last night, but I switched the medicine on her!"

"Drug you?" Xiaying's eyes darkened, "She deserves it!"

Lin Luochen looked at her change in expression and said softly, "Remember, don't show your emotions. You were just too agitated earlier."

"Yes!" Xiaying nodded.

The two of them, mistress and servant, walked slowly through the rainy night towards the hot spring...

After Lin Luochen got up and slowly tidied up, she waited for the servant to report that Bai Mei was rolling in pain. Lin Luochen waved her hand and said, "Let her in!"

Bai Mei crawled in, followed by Baojing. She knelt down and kept kowtowing, "Miss, please spare me! Save me, please!"

"Save you? How can I save you? You're so sick now, I'm afraid of getting infected by your illness!" Lin Luochen said, covering her nose in disgust.

"Miss! I was wrong! I shouldn't have drugged you! I shouldn't have! I know only you can save me! Please save me!" Bai Mei's forehead was bruised, but Lin Luochen seemed unmoved, showing no mercy.

"Miss, please! I'm in agony, I can't bear it!" Bai Mei cried out, even crawling to Lin Luochen and trying to grab her skirt.

Xia Ying kicked her far away, and Lin Luochen said, "Tell me everything you know, and I'll save you!"

Baojing was shocked and shouted at Bai Mei, "Don't be foolish! Miss is not a doctor. You should go find the doctor in the mansion!"

"It's no use! Once I find the doctor, Aunt An will know I'm sick and I'll be kicked out!" Bai Mei cried.

Now, Lin Luochen was her only hope!
