Reborn As Divine Doctor to Rule the World-Chapter 186 - 187 How is it Impossible
Chapter 186: Chapter 187: How is it Impossible? Chapter 186 -187: How is it Impossible? Shao He looked at Pei Huaian, unsure of how to answer his question.
“It’s okay, I know today’s events were sudden. Take your time to think it over. I can make true everything you said before.”
Pei Huaian did not press her any further and turned to leave the medical clinic.
Shao He stood in place, lost in thought for a long time. Her time with Pei Huaian had indeed been very pleasant, and she had indeed begun to develop feelings for him. It was difficult for her to reject someone who was so considerately caring and who looked after her child so well.
But in this era, one had to consider social status. Her status was far below Pei Huaian’s. Not only had she been married before, but she also had a child, and it was uncertain whether the child was Pei Huaian’s.

However, she couldn’t bring herself to ruthlessly push him away.
Shao He sighed and decided to calm down before addressing the issue.
Pei Huaian stepped out of the medical clinic and approached the person waiting not far away. “Have you thought it over?”
The person in front of him turned around; it was Zhao Yuebei, who had just said he needed to go home to take care of his mother.
Zhao Yuebei, trembling with fear, said, “I’m worried about my mother’s safety.”
After all, his mother had spent years hiding him away, with the aim of concealing their identities, fearing that if they were discovered, those people would try to silence them once more.
“Don’t worry, there will be Hidden Guards to protect your mother,” Pei Huaian assured, knowing that the only hope now rested on Zhao Xiu. She must know something.
If she would speak up, perhaps more clues could be found, but in order to protect Zhao Yuebei and herself, Zhao Xiu had been hiding her identity for many years.
“Alright, I agree to go back and persuade my mother,” Zhao Yuebei hesitantly said. “But it’s likely that my mother doesn’t know the cause of Mingfei’s death, after all, most of those involved were executed.”
“Your mother is the only one still alive, she must know some clues.”
Pei Huaian now had no other options; all leads seemed to have gone cold except for Zhao Xiu.
Zhao Yuebei finally agreed to go back and ask, “But no matter what the results, I hope the Fifth Prince will spare me and my mother. We just want to live a peaceful life.”
“Alright,” Pei Huaian said, turning to get on the carriage.
Zhao Yuebei watched as the carriage slowly moved away and then turned, striding forward.
Shao He had just finished prescribing medicine for a patient when she looked up to see Yun Qian, whom she hadn’t seen for a long time. He looked utterly fatigued, with a strong scent of medicine lingering about him.
“You haven’t been treating patients at Anji Hall for a long time, where did you get such a strong smell of medicine?” Shao He couldn’t help but tease.
She was now seriously wondering who Anji Hall really belonged to. She was busy from morning till night, treating patients, prescribing medicines, and procuring medical supplies.
Apart from not owning the place, she was doing all the work, while the real owner played the absentee landlord, seldom seen and not lifting a finger to help.
Yun Qian pinched the tired corners of his eyes, “Sorry, I’ve indeed been very busy lately. It’s been hard on you.”
“It’s not about hardship. What are you so busy with, going out early and coming back late, to the point where you’re rarely seen? And look at your complexion, how long has it been since you’ve slept?”
Shao He was genuinely worried that he would collapse from the strain; as a Doctor himself, he should know that his current condition wasn’t good.
“It’s nothing, it will be fine once I’m through this busy period,” Yun Qian replied, then turned and went into the dispensary, busying himself with something inside.
Shao He helplessly shook her head. Yun Qian appeared gentle but was actually very stubborn. He never disclosed his troubles, always shouldering them alone.
Just as Shao He was pondering why Yun Qian smelled so strongly of medicine, a man dressed as an Imperial Physician hurried over, “Excuse me, where is Doctor Yun?”
“Do you need him for something?” Shao He asked with some curiosity.
“It’s rather urgent.”
Shao He gestured towards the dispensary, “He’s busy inside.”
After thanking her, the Imperial Physician stepped inside, and to Shao He’s surprise, not only was he not expelled, but they began talking.
What exactly they discussed was unclear to Shao He, but soon after their voices rose in argument.
“The things you’re talking about are not in here.”
“How can they not be? They must be removed using some method.”
“Impossible!”
“How is it impossible? You simply don’t believe me!”
With a “bang,” the Imperial Physician was shoved out, staggering to maintain his balance. After straightening his clothes, he shouted back into the room, “There’s nothing wrong with these medicinal materials!”
“Get out!”
This was the first time Shao He had seen Yun Qian lose his temper; the usually docile man had a volatile side too.
The Imperial Physician looked at Shao He, huffed angrily, and stormed off.
Shao He didn’t dwell on it, assuming Yun Qian had been consulting the Imperial Medical Bureau about medicinal materials.
Time flew quickly, and more than a month had passed before the Shao Family came knocking once again.
Shao Zhengru said with a sycophantic smile, “Shao He, your mother’s condition has improved. Why don’t you bring the child tomorrow and come to visit her?”
Shao He did not respond, her gaze fixed on Shao Zhengru. It seemed that the issues with Shao Mingyang had been resolved; otherwise, why would he find the time to bother with her?
Thinking that she was having second thoughts about returning, Shao Zhengru quickly began to play the family card, “Shao He, your mother heard you were bringing the child over and specifically sewed many little clothes by hand.”
“I understand. I’ll bring the child over tomorrow.”
Shao He’s words allowed Shao Zhengru to relax. He hastily said, “Good, we’ll send someone to pick up you and the child tomorrow.”
Shao He flatly refused, indicating she and the child would return on their own. Shao Zhengru did not insist, as long as she agreed to come back!
