CHAPTER 183: CHAPTER 184: SLAPPING NI JIA IN THE FACE 2

Nianyang didn’t even spare a glance at a certain arrogant woman, she walked straight past Ni Jia without looking sideways.

Ni Jia was displeased with her indifferent attitude and blocked her path, "You’re Gu Nianyang, right? What’s the meaning of this, acting like I don’t exist?"

She was the First Female Doctor of Pingjing, who, upon seeing her, wouldn’t dutifully greet her? Yet this village woman dared to disregard her completely!

What, she’s just relying on Tingyan for support, without realizing her own worth—a mere mountain farmer’s wife, nothing more than Tingyan’s plaything. Someone like Tingyan with his status wouldn’t marry a woman of no value!

Nianyang replied coldly,

"Doctor Ni, do you think you’re a queen or princess, expecting me to pay my respects to you? The Qing dynasty has already perished."

"You!" Ni Jia was struck dumb, her pretty complexion instantly turning as red as pig liver.

Xiao Wu chuckled, his Saozi wasn’t just beautiful and skilled in medicine, her ability to retort was top-notch too, admirable!

Ni Jia usually bossed around the sailors at the pier relying on her medical skills, and nobody dared to say anything because she was the life-saving doctor. Now, Saozi directly left her speechless, it felt truly exhilarating.

"Miss, this isn’t the countryside where you live, it’s full of doctors here. Speak with respect, don’t assume that because you’re involved with Master Li you can flout the rules. It’s not certain if you’ll ever marry Master Li!"

Sheng Feng looked at Nianyang with eyes full of cold sarcasm and criticism.

"Whether I can marry Ayang is a matter between us, it’s not for a subordinate like you to manage!" Nianyang retorted sharply, "I and Ayang have confirmed our relationship, our love is unquestionable, I am the one he has chosen as his wife, your nominal Saozi, so when you speak of respect, I hope you’ll properly call me Saozi!"

Nianyang didn’t initially want to speak too harshly, after all, the other party was still connected to Li Tingyan, but Sheng Feng was simply unaware of his own limitations.

Someone who survives because of the mask she provided, yet offers no thanks while being full of cold mockery. A subordinate daring to meddle in his superior’s affairs – what nonsense!

Displaying such disdainful expressions, as if she thought highly of him?

Sheng Feng’s face turned pale and green, unable to find words to rebut, he could only lower his head in reluctant silence, while thinking inwardly that she indeed was an unsophisticated woman from the countryside, already putting on airs before marrying Master Li!

She doesn’t measure up to Doctor Ni at all!

Nianyang, concerned about the sailors’ conditions, didn’t wait for a response and walked inside.

Ni Jia gritted her teeth in fury, unwilling to fall behind, she also stepped in, deliberately rushing ahead to position herself before Nianyang.

The hall was in chaos, Assistant Wang and several sailors lay on beds moaning and wailing.

Doctors scrambled to administer emergency care, noticing someone came in, the first to catch sight of Ni Jia, exclaimed in joy,

"Doctor Ni, you’re finally here, please help examine what’s wrong with them, my expertise isn’t strong enough to find out."

"Don’t worry, I’m on it now."

Ni Jia nodded, simultaneously casting a complacent glance at Nianyang behind her.

See that, even if you’re here, so what? Everyone here can only pay attention to me, the First Female Doctor, your attempt to stand out is bound to fail!
