Medical Princess

Madame Dong had been very anxious and flustered in the past few days. She was sitting in her room with a frown and couldn't calm down. She didn't expect to see that person again after so many years.

Her expectation had long disappeared when she saw that man with his wife and daughter.

In fact, she should have known that he couldn't remember her as he had disappeared for so many years. When she left, she had known how unfriendly his wife was to her.

She had thought that she had given up on it, but now she had to look inside herself again. For so many years, she had been entangled.

A shop boy knocked on the door and said, "Madame, there is a guest who wants to meet you. He said he had something important to tell you!"

In the past, some of her important guests would do the same, so Madame Dong was used to it. She calmed down at once and said with a calm face, "Lead the important guest here!"

The shop boy answered and left. After a while, he came back with a corpulent middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man seemed to be excited. He knocked on the slightly closed door and then Madame Dong's voice came from inside. "Please come in!"

He pushed the door. When Madame Dong saw the person at the door, she instantly stood up with a stern look.

"Lady Ming, it's really you!" The man was very excited. Even though he had been prepared, he could not help crying out at the moment.

Madame Dong looked at the middle-aged man with a pale face, but then she calmed down. She went by the table to closed the door and then returned to the table. She pointed to the table and said, "Please sit down, Sir. What can I do for you?"

At this time, the middle-aged man also came to his senses. He rushed to Madame Dong with a pale and excited face and said, "Lady Ming. It's me. Can't you recognize me?"

Madame Dong suppressed the excitement in her heart and responded coldly, "Childe Wei... no, now I should call you Lord Wei. What do you want to talk to me about? If you have no important thing, please leave. I am occupied with so many businesses, So I can't sit around with you!"

"Lady Ming, I... you... how can you treat me like this!" Wei Dahai was so agitated that he began to speak incoherently. His fingers were trembling as he pressed them on the table.

"Don't tell a joke, Lord Wei. I have nothing to do with you. Why did you say that?" Madame Dong sneered and said to the man in front of her with sarcasm.

The man in front of her was exactly the cause of her previous dire straits!

She had lived a hard life with her child alone. At the most difficult time, she once hoped to see this man appear in front of her. However, she did not see him when she was most looking forward to his help. Now, he showed up, which was completely a joke.

She would never get herself connected with him even if she was fooled again!

"Madam Ming, I had no choice at that time. I asked you to wait for me, didn't I? I told you that I would give you a title, but I didn't expect... I didn't expect that you would leave..." Wei Dahai said excitedly. Then he looked around and said, "Where's the child? You were pregnant at that time. Where's the child now?"

Madame Dong looked at the man in front of her with cold eyes. When she met him that day, he even pretended to be unacquainted with her. Now he showed great excitement, which was disgusting.

"Lord Wei, would you leave, please? This is where the women stay. Aren't you afraid of being discovered by others if you stay here for too long? How can I bear the responsibility if your reputation is ruined?" Madame Dong said coldly.

"Don't be so cold to me, Lady Ming. I've been looking for you for so many years, but I always failed to find you! That's out of my control!" Wei Dahai smiled bitterly as he picked up the corner of his robe and sat down on a chair. He looked very depressed.

"Lord Wei, I don't understand what you're talking about. I'm just the keeper of this shop. If you have nothing else to say, please leave!" Madame Dong said rudely.

"Lady Ming, what happened back then was not as simple as you think. I had no choice. If I hadn't agreed to the marriage at that time, neither of us would have been able to have a good future... You should know my feelings. How could the perennial relationship between you and me be broken so easily? I asked you to wait for me, but you left. Where should I go to find you in such a big world?"

Wei Dahai started to be unhappy. He was scolded by Madame Dong all the time, and he was in a bad mood.

"What would I get if I did? Shall I wait to be titled as your concubine? Lord Wei, I am not from a rich family, but I know what is dignity. Since you won't marry me, why did you pretend to be nice and ask me to stay?" Madame Dong said coldly with sharp eyes.

"Lord Wei, aren't you leaving? Then, don't blame me. I was just the daughter of a merchant, so I don't care much about reputation. If you still want to talk about it, why don't we open the door and share it with everyone? Let's see who should be to blame in their eyes!" She said as she was pointing outside.

On finishing her words, Madame Dong went by the table to open the door.

When Wei Dahai saw it, he became very anxious and stood up to stop her. "Lady Ming, we haven't seen each other for so many years, but I didn't expect that you are as cruel as you were. It will not be good for you if it is known to others. I have inquired about you before, and I know that you have been raising a child for so many years alone. I know how hard you have been. Since I find you, I won't let you suffer like that anymore!"

"He has inquired with details, so he comes prepared?"

Madame Dong stepped back to avoid Wei Dahai. She looked him up and down and sneered, "What? Are you afraid that others will know about it? Then why did you come to see me if you are afraid? If you don't leave, I can bear to lose my face!"

After saying that, she was about to go to the door again.

"Okay, I'll leave. You think about it carefully, please. I really want to protect you. You have suffered a lot for so many years. Now it's time to enjoy life!" Seeing Madame Dong's look, Wei Dahai knew that he should not push her too hard at this time. That was what Madame Dong was like in the past. "After so many years, she is still as difficult as she was!"

"Leave!" Madame Dong said coldly.

"Okay, okay, I'm leaving. But I'll come again!" Wei Dahai didn't dare to force her anymore. He could only say that and then leave.

After Wei Dahai left, Madame Dong's cold face was relaxed, and then her eyes turned wet. "How could I be so stupid to fall in love with such a person at that time?"

She had thought that he was a responsible man, but it turned out that he was just a coward.

In the past, after she decided to follow him to travel around the world, she first accompanied him to look for his aunt, but they couldn't find her, so they settled in a place and planned to officially get married after he took the imperial exam. Unexpectedly, he passed the examination and was chosen to be the son-in-law by others soon, which was told to her by her neighbor.

She went to question Wei Dahai as soon as she heard about that. He kept avoiding the topic. In the end, he was finally forced to tell the truth. And he asked her to be his mistress and promised that he would support her forever. He also said that he would only have her in his heart. They could not become husband and wife in the current situation.

All the vows of love before became nothing. Madame Dong couldn't believe that the person in front of her was the man with whom she used to be in love.

Another reason why Madame Dong followed Wei Dahai to the capital city was that her parents also treated him like their son-in-law. Although her family was not a very rich one, at least they didn't have to worry about food and clothes. Her parents ran a small business that could support the whole family. Wei Dahai was nothing but a worker in their family at that time. But he was clever enough to study.

Since he was good-looking, diligent, and well-educated, Madame Dong's parents arranged a marriage for them. Later, he said that he would go to the capital city to take the imperial exam and invite his aunt to host their wedding. So they went to the capital city together.

Later, he passed the exam, but the bride of his wedding was not her. So how could Madame Dong be willing to stay with him as an illegitimate mistress? She just packed up and left.

However, she was pregnant, which made her depressed. She fell ill halfway home, so she had to rent a house on the spot to recuperate. Later, after giving birth to Dong Xiuer, she decided to settled there because she was unwilling to lose face in front of the people in her hometown.

During the period when Dong Xiuer was in poor health, she once thought about going to the capital city to find Wei Dahai. She didn't intend to beg him to embrace her and her daughter but just hoped that he could help their daughter. At that moment, she still had some expectations for Wei Dahai.

However, when they met again today, it was completely broken...

"Madame Dong, Her Highness is here to see you!" A clear voice suddenly came from the door. Madame Dong looked up and found that it was from Yujie. She immediately knew that Shao Wanru was here. She hurriedly wiped the tears off the corners of her eyes and was about to go out to welcome Shao Wanru.

"Madame Dong, you don't have to come out. Her Highness will come to see you herself!" Yujie winked at Madame Dong and said mischievously.

Madame Dong immediately understood what Yujie meant. Prince Chen didn't want others to know that she was the owner of the shop. So Madame Dong nodded at once. She calmed herself down and stood in the room waiting for Shao Wanru.

Shao Wanru entered the room with Qu Le. Yujie did not follow in. After closing the door, she stood outside.

"Your Highness!" Madame Dong stepped forward and saluted.

Shao Wanru waved her hand and said with a smile, "Madame Dong, you're too polite!" Then she walked to sit down in the large chair behind the desk and asked directly, "Madame Dong, you've been looking for me in a hurry these days. Is there anything urgent that you can't solve?"

Madame Dong calmed down again and answered calmly, "Her Highness, Dong Xiuer's father came to see me. I'm afraid that he will become your obstacle!"

Actually, Madame Dong had ever thought that Wei Dahai might show up and ruin Princess Chen's plan. And he indeed did what she had been worried about.

Shao Wanru was unexpected. She blinked her eyes in surprise, and there was a trace of deepness in her watery eyes. It was not that she didn't understand, but she just thought it strange. It was Madame Dong's private affair. There was no need to see her and tell her every detail in such a hurry.
