CHAPTER 307: CHAPTER 298: I DON’T NEED THEIR AFFECTION

"How could it be an allergy?

Clearly, it was that venomous woman Lin Wanyue who poisoned her!

Lin Yanran almost blurted out, ’Imperial Physician, could you have made a mistake?’

But she opted for a more tactful approach, "Imperial Doctor Fang, perhaps the pulse is a bit complicated, could you check it once more?"

Imperial Doctor Fang felt that Lin Yanran was questioning his medical expertise, feeling a bit displeased, yet he did not wish to cause trouble, so he held his temper and did as she requested, checking the pulse again.

Lin Yanran immediately inquired about the results, "How is it? Is it poisoning?"

"Second Miss indeed only has an allergy."

Lin Yanran was somewhat incredulous, or rather, unwilling to accept this result, and still wished for the Imperial Physician to diagnose again.

Imperial Doctor Fang, with a stern face, responded coldly yet politely, "Second Miss indeed has not been poisoned, it’s just an allergy. If Second Miss doubts my medical skill, please consult another expert."

Lin Yanran: "..."

Seeing the tense atmosphere, Lin Haoran quickly intervened with a smile to mediate, "Please forgive us Imperial Doctor Fang! My sister is tormented by illness, in unbearable pain, and spoke out of urgency, not due to a lack of trust in your skill."

"It’s because my sister has been fine until today, after Lin Wanyue’s confusing smoke caused these symptoms, hence the suspicion."

Imperial Doctor Fang, not wanting to offend the Minister Mansion, explained, "That confusing smoke is non-toxic, and its symptoms cause sore muscles, fatigue, drowsiness, and loss of appetite, it does not cause itching or rash."

"This room has the scent of white sandalwood mixed with Moon-Closing Grass. There are also Mandala Flowers and Crystal Flowers by the window; these scents are harmless separately, yet together with a single medium, they can cause a strong allergic reaction, causing intense itching."

Upon hearing Imperial Doctor Fang’s words, Lin Haoran furrowed his brows with a contemplative look, "Could it be that the confusing smoke is the medium? But I came this morning to deliver something and sat for a while, why am I fine?"

Facing the doubt, Imperial Doctor Fang remained calm.

"If I am not mistaken, the white sandalwood and Moon-Closing Grass are a kind of balm used by women after bathing."

"With prolonged use of this scent, coupled with time spent in the room, it reacts with the medium. Since you, Young Master, only sat briefly, inhaling only a small amount, its effects are minimal."

"Moreover, Young Master is strong and healthy, well-accustomed to the battlefield, ordinary ailments cannot affect you."

Listening to the conversation from behind the curtain, Lin Yanran’s expression slightly twisted.

So, it’s because I’m frail and unlucky, using scent is my own fault?!

Lin Wanyue, that heartless venomous woman, remains completely blameless?!

Why?

Even if she didn’t poison, the confusing smoke was still scattered by her, wasn’t it?

She mustn’t think she can wash away her vile reputation!

Though filled with resentment, the words that came out were gentle, almost pitiful.

"Imperial Doctor Fang, what remedy can quickly treat this? If I were to ask Sister Wanyue for the antidote to the confusing smoke, could it relieve this allergic reaction?"

"I suppose Sister was just muddled and acted harshly with the confusing smoke, certainly without intent to harm. If I beseech her, she should give me the antidote out of sisterly compassion."

Yet, though the words were considerate and pitiful, Imperial Doctor Fang stiffly replied:

"Second Miss, unfortunately, even with the antidote for the confusing smoke, it will not cure your allergic reaction."

Lin Yanran: "?!"

It cannot be cured? Then how long must she endure this inhuman torture?!

Lin Haoran very concernedly helped ask this question, the answer was:

"There is an ointment for external use, applied twice daily, it will heal in about seven days."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yanran almost fainted on the spot, "What? Seven days?"

Isn’t that long enough to torture her to death?!

Never mind that excruciating itch, just looking at those rashes on her hands, face, and arms every day, anyone would go mad, wouldn’t they? Succumb to depression directly?!

"Isn’t there a more effective ointment that works quicker?"

Lin Haoran, also looking at Imperial Doctor Fang, filled with urgency.

Alas, the Imperial Doctor calmly shook his head, "This is already the fastest working ointment."

Lin Haoran, Lin Yanran: "..."

After prescribing the medicine, Lin Haoran escorted him out of the courtyard.

Lin Yanran immediately took off her jade bracelet and smashed it out forcefully.

"Lin Wanyue! Damn you! I won’t let you off!"
