197 Consultation

“I’ll have to trouble you to help us get Doctor Sun’s number.” Zhao Zhan got out of the palanquin and stuck his head out to take a look. The line was packed.

The weather outside was freezing, and he couldn’t bear to bring Yue Jiaojiao along and stand in line on the street.

“As for the inn, please send us to Dream Western.”

“Alright, we can go now actually. Later on, after we get Doctor Sun’s number, how shall we stay in contact?”

“I will inform the staff in advance later.”

While they were talking, they had already arrived at the inn.

After Zhao Zhan paid for the silver, he carried Yue Jiaojiao out of the palanquin. He led her into the inn and asked for a room from the staff to rest for the night.

After breakfast the next day, Zhao Zhan brought Yue Jiaojiao to the Hall of Truth with the number that the palanquin bearer had given him the day before.

Hekou County was on the border of Jiangnan, so the weather was different from the wind in the mountains. Hekou County was humid even in the cold, making people feel that the jacket they were wearing was heavier.

Zhao Zhan had brought a big coat for his lover. Seeing that her hands were cold, he wrapped her tightly in the coat and half-hugged her as they walked forward.

When the two of them arrived, the queue at the Hall of Truth was already very long. There were a few apprentice alchemists in the queue who looked at the number plate in his hand and placed the two of them in the fifth line.

By the time it was their turn, Yue Jiaojiao felt that her feet were frozen stiff.

“What is it?”

Sitting in the inner room was Doctor Sun’s apprentice, who was not very old. He looked to be in his early twenties and was dressed in a white robe. When he spoke, he raised his eyes to look at the two people.

“Hello.”

Yue Jiaojiao sat opposite him, while Zhao Zhan stood upright beside her.

“About five months ago, the back of my head got injured. Since then, I can’t remember many things clearly.

“It was Doctor Zhou Xuanming who recommended me to come to the Heart Hall. A pleasure to meet you, Doctor Sun.”

Yue Jiaojiao said as she placed her wrist on the pulse pillow.

The reason why they used the excuse of seeing a doctor and even used Doctor Zhou out was to make their actions seem more real.

If she sat down rashly and said that she was there to inquire about someone, Yue Jiaojiao was worried that the other party would feel repulsed.

Doctor Sun’s apprentice placed a thin silk handkerchief on her wrist. After checking her pulse, he stood up and walked over to the back of Yue Jiaojiao’s head to look at the wound. He muttered to himself for a moment before saying softly, “I’ve observed your pulse. The blood clot in your brain has disappeared. As for why you haven’t recalled your lost memories, it might be because of your heart.”

“My heart?”

“To put it simply, the memory you lost or the reason you lost your memory at that time might have been too painful for you, so you don’t want to remember it. This is only one possibility. The reason you didn’t recover your memory might not be as I said.

“If you don’t mind, I can ask my master to check your pulse again.”

“If need be then so,” Yue Jiaojiao nodded her head without hesitation.

“Please come with me to the back. My master likes peace and quiet. After my master has finished examining you, you can ask the assistant to take you out from the back door. I have to go back to check on other patients.”

“Many thanks.”

“You’re welcome.”

As they spoke, they arrived at the backyard. Although Doctor Sun’s hair was white, he still looked energetic. He looked up and saw the three of them coming in. His eyes narrowed in surprise. “Jiaojiao, you’re here.”
