Also, many thanks to everyone who bought me coffee (*???*)

Gu Chengfeng laughed mockingly at Yuan Tong’s retort and said, "I’m not paying attention? Alright, even if that’s the case, then you must be paying attention, right? Why didn't you dodge, then? It seems like you intentionally stepped on my feet and bumped into me!"

Gu Chengfeng didn't mean anything else, but to Yuan Tong’s ears, it was as if he was implying that she was shameless, unreserved, and deliberately trying to get his attention.

Yuan Tong was furious, "You, you, you shameless person!"

Gu Chengfeng coldly replied, "Who’s shameless?"

Yuan Tong angrily retorted, "Whoever deserves it is shameless!"

"You..."

"Humph!"

"Yuan Tong, come back here."

At the back door of the lobby, a pale-faced young Taoist nun, supported by her personal servant girl, spoke to Yuan Tong.

Yuan Tong turned around and saw her. Her face ashened and she walked over, saying, "Sister, why did you get off the carriage? Didn't I tell you to wait in the carriage? I’ll go and invite Young Miss Gu for you!"

Gu Chengfeng had no grudges against the young Taoist nun, and seeing her in such a condition, he couldn't bring himself to continue arguing with her younger sister.

He snorted and turned away.

Just as he arrived at the entrance of the small courtyard, Gu Jiao came out.

Gu Jiao looked at the young Taoist nun, and her expression didn’t look right.

Gu Chengfeng cleared his throat and said, "You go and attend to the patient first, I'm not in a hurry."

"Okay." Gu Jiao nodded. The consultation room was full at the moment, so Gu Jiao asked Yuan Tong to assist the young Taoist nun into the small courtyard.

It was inconvenient for Gu Chengfeng to go in so he had to wait in the lobby. After waiting for a while, he still hadn’t seen Gu Jiao come out, but he didn't want to rush her. After all, he wasn't in too much of a hurry. He just idled around in the lobby in the meantime.

The young Taoist nun lay on the bed in the room, holding her stomach as beads of cold sweat appeared layer by layer all over her body.

"Where do you feel uncomfortable?" Gu Jiao asked her.

The young Taoist nun glanced at the servant girl and Yuan Tong who were standing nearby.

Gu Jiao turned her head and said, "You two can leave for now. I'm not accustomed to having someone watching when I treat patients."

Yuan Tong opened her mouth to say, "Oh, then, I'll leave my sister in your care."

Gu Jiao nodded.

Yuan Tong and the servant girl exited the room.

Gu Jiao looked at the young Taoist nun again and asked, "Can you tell me where you feel uncomfortable now?"

The young Taoist nun hesitated, seemingly embarrassed to speak. After a while, she murmured, "I... I have stomach pain..."

"Let me check." Gu Jiao held her wrist and began to feel her pulse.

The young Taoist nun looked at Gu Jiao's silent expression, completely losing her usual composure. She bit her lip and whispered, "Am... Am I having a miscarriage?"

A miscarriage?

Gu Jiao suspected she had misheard.

Gu Jiao examined the young Taoist nun's wrist and then looked at her face.

The young Taoist nun, with a trace of grievance in her eyes, began to cry softly, "I knew it... I'm having a miscarriage... I've lost my baby..."

Gu Jiao: "..."

Hold on, what did she miss here?

The young Taoist nun cried sorrowfully, she started having hiccups, making it difficult for Gu Jiao to understand the whole story for a while.

As it turned out, on the day when Gu Changqing saved her, something inappropriate happened between him and the young Taoist nun inside the carriage.

"I was the one who initiated it... I tore his clothes... I couldn't control myself... I... I couldn't help but... do that to him..."

"My menstrual cycle hasn't come for two months..."

"This morning... I suddenly had stomach pain..."

"And then there was bleeding..."

Of course, if you were having your period, it was natural to have stomach pain and bleeding!

Gu Jiao looked at her, her expression hard to describe. This was simply an irregular menstrual period!

Gu Jiao stated, "You're not pregnant."

The young Taoist nun cried, "I don't believe it! I was riding on top of him!" [T/N: Haha]

Gu Jiao was stunned silly. Was it really that intense?

"You really aren't pregnant, and this is not a miscarriage."

"You don't have to console me... I know... My baby is gone... sob..."

Gu Jiao: "..."

Having been a doctor for two lifetimes, her medical skills had never been doubted like this before.

Well, the person who caused the problem should be the one to solve it.

Gu Jiao called for Gu Chengfeng and asked him to bring Gu Changqing to the medical hall.

Gu Jiao didn't mention the specifics, so Gu Chengfeng didn't expect it to be related to the Yuan Family.

As luck would have it, Gu Changqing was in the Marquis Estate today, so Gu Chengfeng was able to quickly bring him over.

Gu Jiao found an excuse to send Yuan Tong and the servant girl away, asking them to buy medicine and food. Then she directly took Gu Changqing into the small courtyard.

Gu Chengfeng also wanted to enter the room but was mercilessly refused by Gu Jiao!

Inside the room, the young Taoist nun had cried herself to sleep. Gu Jiao explained her situation to Gu Changqing.

Gu Changqing never expected that this matter would be brought to light in such a manner. His perpetually icy expression suddenly turned red!

"It never happened!" He took a deep breath and clenched his fingers, "I never did it with her."

Gu Jiao raised an eyebrow. "Oh, is it just feeling with the hands?"

"There is no such thing either..." Gu Changqing wanted to say he didn't even touch her, but his words got stuck on his lips. He turned away, his face red, and said seriously, "In any case, she won't get pregnant. She’s still a virgin."

Men always understand these matters a bit better than women.

Gu Jiao didn't doubt the reliability of Gu Changqing's words at all. She pointed her index finger and said, "Then explain it to her yourself. It's getting late; I still have to go pick up Little Jing Kong."

After saying that, she slung her basket on her back and left decisively.

Gu Changqing wanted to call her back but couldn't.

Inside the room, Gu Changqing didn’t know whether to stand or sit.

Back then, no one knew the shame and torment he experienced while he waited for the young Taoist nun to get back to her senses, which was about the time it took one to drink half a cup of tea.

The incident that day was indeed an accident. He had never wanted to marry in his life, but the physical intimacy had happened. If, in case, she couldn't let it go like Gu Jinyu, he would take responsibility and propose marriage.

But when she regained her senses, she said she didn't want to get married, so the matter became a secret between the two of them.

Who would have expected... that she would think she could get pregnant that way? And she even cried when there was a "miscarriage." Did she originally plan to secretly give birth to the "child"?

Without even informing him?

He was the child's father!

No, wait, there was no child.

He almost got misled.

Gu Changqing helplessly pinched his brow.

At this moment, the young Taoist nun on the bed gradually woke up.

She was still immersed in the immense sadness of losing her baby. When she saw Gu Changqing, she ignored the fact that they had no emotional connection. She suddenly felt extremely wronged and grabbed Gu Changqing's hand. "Sob... Our baby is gone..."

Grand Secretary Yuan, who had rushed over upon receiving the news, had just arrived at the door and unexpectedly heard this.

Grand Secretary Yuan whose expression froze on the spot: "...!!"
