Heavenly Divine Doctor: Abandoned Concubine

Ye Zhen glanced around. She didn’t know anyone except Hong Ling. Even the shopkeeper present in the store, she had never seen before.

In the vicinity of a place that should appear strange to her, Ye Zhen did not dare show any familiarity, but only smiled and said, “I heard that you have perfumes from overseas. Can you show it to me?”

Looking pleased, Hong Ling’s eyes crinkled in a friendly smile. “Miss, you are just in time! Ships have just arrived with a batch of top perfumes for our store! Why don’t you come with me upstairs to have a look at all of them?”

At first, Ye Zhen was astonished of her previous maid’s calm exterior and versatile acting. Thus she discreetly released a sigh of relief when Hong Ling seemed to have played along. “Yes, it’s best that I have a look first.”

Then, Hong Ling led Ye Zhen to the room upstairs. As soon as the door was closed, she immediately pulled out a dagger from her gown and pointed it at Ye Zhen. “Who are you? Why are you so similar to our young miss and so knowledgeable about her affairs?”

Although she was a maid, she was trained when she was a child at Ye’s mansion.

She was surprised to see that this woman looked exactly like her mistress so she mistakenly thought she was indeed the Wang Fei Ye Zhen. After returning to her home, she thought everything carefully over and later on, realized how it was impossible.

Her memories were still fresh—she watched the tyrant Lu Lingzhi push her girl into flames with her own eyes. Even if she was not dead, Ye Zhen couldn’t survive without scars. It’s just impossible.

These days, she has been inquiring secretly, only to know that she is the third miss of the Lu family, that is Lu Lingzhi’s cousin. How can Hong Ling not be alert? She suspected that this was another trick of Lu Lingzhi!

Ye Zhen looked at such vigilant eyes of Hong Ling and admired her for it. The maid still hasn’t changed one bit. She took off her curtain hat and revealed her beautiful face.

“When you came to me at the age of six, you couldn’t speak clearly. Liu Wei wanted to send you away, but I refused. I gave you your name and taught you how to write it. One time, I’ve been naughty and climb up the tree to pick peaches. Accidentally, I fell , but you embraced me and caressed my broken hands…”

“These are not secrets, as long as you inquire carefully, you can know!” Hong Ling suppressed the shock in her heart and still could not believe that this person was the Young Miss Ye. How is it possible? The beautiful and noble miss in the family she served to… has been killed by Lu Lingzhi!

This person in front of me is not her, not her! 

“Then what secrets should I know for you to believe?” Ye Zhen asked lightly.

“Our young miss has a name …” Hong Ling’s voice shook for a little.

“Yao Yao.” Ye Zhen spoke directly.

Hearing the name she has not heard for a while now, Hong Ling’s eyes opened wide, and her tears fell uncontrollably.

“Under the crabapple tree in the northwest yard, I buried my front teeth that I lost when were still children. Every time my mother was angry with me, I liked to hide in my father’s study so that no one could find me …” Ye Zhen saw Hong Ling’s tears, and she couldn’t help but feel shaken at the memories.

“Young miss, it’s really you!” Only she and Ye Zhen knew about burying her front teeth under the specific tree. She was indeed the girl of the Ye family whom she grew up with!

Ye Zhen nodded gently, “Yes, I’m back.”
