The Divine Physician’s Overbearing Wife

“I’ve followed you for so many years. How much have I helped the Nan family with? She’s back, and you want to give her the Nan family? So what am I? What about all the years of my hard work? It would have been fine if she had wanted to marry me, but she was so ignorant, and you were indulging her…

“Father, if you knew that you would end up like this, would you still be so indulgent to your ignorant daughter?”

The old man closed his eyes. He did not want to look at Nan Fang, let alone answer his questions.

“But…” Nan Fang smiled coldly and lowered his eyes. “Rong Qi, that old man also knows that he will die this time, so he wants to see you again before he leaves. I am always reasonable. How can I not fulfill your wish? But… You know what to do.”

Nan Fang straightened up, clapped his hands, smirked. “Bring her now!”

The old master turned his head, and for a moment, a familiar face came to sight. He was agitated, struggling to get up from the bed.

Outside the window, a woman prostrated in the doorway with her face full of tears. Her hands pressed against the door with a look of grief and despair on her face.

If Feng Ruqing were here, she would have seen that the woman looked exactly like Suyi.

“Father… ” Nan Fang smiled coldly. “So, if you don’t want anything to happen to your precious daughter, you’d better be good and obedient. After all, back then, you said that it was her disobedience and unfilial piety that made you give me the headship of the Nan family.”

He paused and smiled eerily.

“But what you said that day was true. She should have married me, but she had refused. So, she must pay the price for it!”

The old master’s gaze was filled with hatred and anger as he stared at Nan Fang.

There was an inexhaustible flame of anger in those eyes.

“I know you are outraged now and would like to kill me. Unfortunately, I will live well, and now I will let you live, but only to let you witness my strength. I will do better than when you ruled the Nan family.”

The old master closed his eyes in grief, tears flowing down his old face, his body trembling, and he clenched his fists tightly.

‘Yi’er, I’m sorry… I was wrong back then.

‘I shouldn’t have brought a wolf into the house… And ruined your life!’

“Later that old man, Rong Qi, will come in. Get ready to see him one last time. He’s the only one left of those old guys who opposed me back then.”

Nan Fang flung his sleeve, turned around, and left.

The moment he walked out of the room, he gave a wink to the two guards at the door.

The two guards dragged the woman out of the room and gradually disappeared from the old man’s eyes.

***

In the silent courtyard, Nan Fang stopped in his tracks.

The woman behind him had also stopped weeping and was staring at Nan Fang respectfully.

“Master, how long do I need to live with this face?”

“Nan City will soon be completely under my control, and there will be no need to threaten that old man anymore.” Nan Fang’s eyes sank, and a flash of coldness appeared in his eyes. “If that woman, Nan Suyi, had not escaped, I wouldn’t have needed someone to impersonate her! But you can only see him through the door. Otherwise, that old man will notice that you’re not her.”
