Chapter 191: Radish in Winter, Ginger in Summer

Ji Zhao earnestly memorized Immortal Crane's instructions and finally thanked him from the bottom of her heart.

"I love mutton. Let's set up a mutton stove tonight." Immortal Crane hummed a tune happily and left.

Ji Zhao supported Shen Yao and helped him lie on the bed.

However, when she tried to retract her arm, Shen Yao grabbed her hand forcefully.

"What... what's wrong?" The distance between them was getting shorter.

Ji Zhao felt a trace of nervousness for no reason.

"Ah Tao." Shen Yao's voice was low and magnetic.

Ji Zhao felt her ears itch a little.

"Thank you." Shen Yao caressed her face gently, his gentle tone filled with gratitude. "If you hadn't used the classics to encourage me with the story of Lord Guan, I think I definitely wouldn't have been able to hold on."

"It hurts, doesn't it?" Ji Zhao held his hand with heartache and said softly, "When Senior treated your wound just now, I didn't even dare to look."

"It doesn't hurt with Ah Tao by my side." Shen Yao gently brushed away a strand of hair that had fallen on her forehead. His voice became even gentler.

"Ah Tao, it's so good to have you.'

"Of course, I'm good to begin with!" Ji Zhao raised her eyebrows smugly and pretended to be relaxed.

Fifteen minutes later, Shen Yao, who had taken the medicine, fell asleep very quickly.

Ji Zhao carefully tucked him in before turning to leave.

Knock knock—

"Come in!" Immortal Crane put down the brush in his hand. The moment he slowly looked up, he happened to see Ji Zhao's worried expression.

"What's going on?

"Senior, can you answer my question truthfully?" Ji Zhao thought for a moment and asked seriously, "Can Shen Yao's leg really be completely healed?"

"Girl, if you don't believe in my medical skills, why did you ask someone to find

out my whereabouts?" The Immortal Crane sighed helplessly.

"Senior, you've misunderstood." Ji Zhao explained seriously, "It's not that I don't believe in your medical skills, but you said before that the injury on Shen Yao's leg was maliciously caused. In other words, some people hope that Shen Yao can be crippled for the rest of his life."

"Actually, I've heard of your deeds before. You're an unworldly expert. I don't think you'll settle down in Dingyuan County in the future, right?"

"So what?"

"Senior, I actually want to acknowledge you as my master." Ji Zhao mustered up her courage and said sincerely, "I want to study medicine."

"After going around in circles for so long, it turns out that you want to become a disciple?" The Immortal Crane never expected that this was what Ji Zhao wanted to talk about.

"Senior, I really want to become your disciple." Ji Zhao thought for a moment and continued, "I admit that it's a little abrupt for me to suddenly say this, but I really want to study medicine. Please agree."

"Girl, can I ask you a question first?" The Immortal Crane looked into her eyes, his gaze solemn. "Learning medicine isn't something that can be done overnight. More importantly, why are you learning medicine?"
