Chapter 122 No way
After Xie Ci returned to Beijing to report, Jiang Bu continued to search for news about his elder brother along the way, while Jiang Xing was still recovering from his injuries. Because his injuries were too serious, he had to lie in bed for three full days before he could get out of bed, but he still couldn't see, which made him very anxious. After all, he was in trouble, and his family must be worried to death. If he didn't get any news from him, his parents would probably go crazy. He really couldn't imagine how his parents would feel when they learned that he fell off the cliff.
In the past three days, Doctor Hu and the servant had been taking good care of him. However, since that day, he had never seen the girl named Xu Nuo again. Moreover, both the doctor and the servant had very little communication with him, as if they were deliberately hiding something. He tried to get more information about himself from them, but they always avoided the important issues and did not give him any chance.
It was already the fourth day when Jiang Xing finally waited for the doctor to arrive. He learned from the servant that the doctor's surname was Hu, and he had to see Miss Xu today no matter what.
"Young master, it's time to change the medicine." The servant came over and helped Jiang Xing up.
Doctor Hu didn't seem to talk much, so Jiang Xing tried to ask, "Doctor, can I see Miss Xu???"
"Do you want to see the young lady?" Doctor Hu said while changing the medicine.
When Jiang Xing heard him say "Miss" instead of "Miss Xu", he knew that this doctor was the local physician.
"Well, I have something very important. I hope the doctor can tell Miss Xu. Please." Jiang Xing's humble and polite tone made Doctor Hu look startled. He didn't expect this elegant young man to be so humble and polite, unlike the dandy children in ordinary families. After a few days of contact, he also had a preliminary understanding of Jiang Xing.
"Okay, I'll help you convey it. As for whether the young lady has time, I can't guarantee it."
Doctor Hu's tone was somewhat helpless, but also a little respectful. He knew that this young lady was of extraordinary status and he could not influence her decision. However, he still agreed to help convey the message and fulfill his responsibility.
Xu Nuo has been busy since she saved Jiang Xing that day. She came to Zijing Villa to check the status of the farmland and handle some business matters. These matters are very important to a family and need her to handle and supervise them personally. Therefore, her schedule is very tight and she has almost no free time.
When she returned to the villa in the afternoon, Doctor Hu came to see her and told her that the young man wanted to see her. This surprised her. The young man actually waited for three or four days to see her. She thought that the young man would come the next day... Unexpectedly! This man is really patient! If Jiang Xing heard this, he would definitely call it unfair. Jiang Xing didn't want to see him at the first time. The medicine prescribed by the miracle doctor contained a tranquilizer, which made him drowsy these days.
Xu Nuo did not delay and came directly to the door of Jiang Xing's guest room. She gently opened the door and walked into the room.
Although Jiang Xing's eyes were covered with gauze, his hearing was extremely sharp. When Xu Nuo just entered the room, he heard footsteps. The footsteps were completely different from those of Doctor Hu and the servant, and he immediately realized that the people coming were not them.
As the footsteps approached, Jiang Xing, relying on his keen hearing, guessed that the visitor must be the young lady or her maid. However, judging by the subtle difference in the footsteps, he concluded that this person must be the young lady. Because the footsteps of a maid are usually lighter and more agile, but this time the footsteps seemed a bit steady and slow.
Jiang Xing sat quietly beside the bed, waiting for Xu Nuo to come.
"Hello, young lady." Jiang Xing looked at the tall and slender woman in front of him and greeted her politely.
"My name is Xu Nuo, you can call me by my name." Xu Nuo's words were direct but not abrupt, with a sense of competence and decisiveness.
"Jiang Xing" also introduced himself out of politeness.
"Ms. Xu, I appreciate your care these days. But I have something important to attend to. Could you please pass a message to my family so that they don't worry." Jiang Xing said politely.
"No." Xu Nuo's rejection was very straightforward, which caught Jiang Xing off guard. He didn't expect the other party to be so decisive and didn't even give him any room for negotiation.
Xu Nuo knew the secret of Zijing Villa. It was an unknown place, and only a few people knew its exact location. Xu Nuo had a strong sense of responsibility for this mysterious place and was unwilling to easily expose it to others. Therefore, when faced with Jiang Xing's request, she quickly refused without hesitation. This was not because she did not trust Jiang Xing, but out of consideration for the safety of Zijing Villa.
However, seeing Jiang Xing's surprised and disappointed expression, Xu Nuo couldn't help but soften her heart. She whispered, "Wait a little longer, I'll take you away in half a month." This made Jiang Xing feel a little relieved, but he was still worried about the changes that might happen if he waited too long.
Half a month... Jiang Xing thought to himself, this period of time seemed too long. He knew that he was in a foreign place, and every extra day meant that the situation in the capital might change, and his family would be more worried. But at this moment he had no other choice, he could feel that this Miss Xu had no ill intentions.
