Chapter 603 Lord Xi Wants To Know Who This Mi Luan Is
Gu Li's eyes were immediately filled with hope when he saw the change in Li Rui's expression.
"You know Mi Luan, right?"
"How do you know Mi Luan?"
Li Rui asked Gu Li coldly. Her eyes looking at Gu Li were suddenly filled with wariness. Xi Ying also sensed the change in Li Rui's behavior. He couldn't help but frown wondering silently who this Mi Luan was.
On the other hand, Gu Li who had finally found some hope could no longer wait and asked hurriedly.
"Lady Li, do you know where he is? It is very important for me to find Mi Luan?"
Gu Li had just finished his words when another voice sounded in the room.
"Mi Luan!"
Everyone looked towards the door. Gu Li and Xi Ying frowned at the same time when they saw the old physician standing at the door but both of them had different reasons for doing that.
Gu Li frowned because of being interrupted while Xi Ying frowned because he was thinking something and he directly asked the old physician what he was thinking.
"What are you doing here? Who allowed you inside?"
As soon as he finished his words, An Ju appeared inside the room and answered her master respectfully.
"My Lord, he said that it was the time to take Madam's pulse."
Xi Ying frowned and couldn't help but scold An Ju.
"Still, you should have stopped him outside only, An Ju."
An Ju lowered her head and said that it would not happen again. Actually, she thought that Li Rui would leave this room once she would see the old physician. That's why she sent the old man here.
However, now she feels that indeed, she should have stopped the old man outside.
On the other hand, the old physician who was hearing everything was looking at Xi Ying with an emotionless face. His lips twitched in anger when he saw An Ju obeying her master.
At the same time, he couldn't stop himself from bursting out in anger.
As he stepped forward, his big fat finger pointed at Xi Ying's face who had a cold and indifferent face while he started shouting loudly
"You young prime minister…first you locked me inside this huge Manor of yours and now you are trying to steal my freedom as well. Do remember that this old man is not your slave and servant. This old man will do whatever I want. If you don't like it, then just let me leave this Manor…"
The old man finished with a proud expression on his face. It could be seen that he was very satisfied with his own words.
However, Xi Ying didn't even bat his eyelid all the while the old man was speaking.
Instead, he looked at An Ju and said calmly
"Throw him out of Xi Manor."
The old man's proud expression vanished immediately and his eyes were filled with shock.
"You…"
He looked at Xi Ying with a baffled face and then at An Ju who immediately said 'Yes Mater' and then started to walk towards him.
'What the hell was going on?'
The old man stepped backward as he saw An Ju walking in his direction. He himself couldn't see how unwilling he was to leave Xi Manor!
It was true that in the beginning, Xi Ying manipulated him to stay in Xi Manor because he wanted a good physician for his wife.
However, now the old man had got so attached to the people of Xi Manor that he didn't wish to leave Xi Manor.
It was after a long time he was living in between so many people.
Otherwise, he used to live alone in his hut that was present on the border of the Imperial City. Every day he would need to find some source of getting meals or money to buy some food.
However, here in Xi Manor, he didn't have to worry about any such thing.
The old man didn't want to go back to his silent hut. He gulped audibly when he saw An Ju approaching him. At last, he could only run towards Li Rui and say
"Girl, see how heartless your husband is. Why did you even marry this man!"
Xi Ying's eyes narrowed as he looked at the old man while Li Rui smiled lightly when she heard him. She could see very well that the old physician didn't want to leave Xi Manor.
Looking back at Xi Ying, the old man continued
"Listen to me, you Prime Minister… This old man is not leaving from here. Until I would not see the face of the newborn child, I am not leaving this Manor."
Feeling that he didn't say enough, the old man continued
"What do you think of yourself? Whenever you wish, your people will pick me up from a street and whenever you will wish, they will throw me out. I am a person …not a…"
"Shut up."
Two cold and sharp voices said at the same time and the old man flinched sharply. His mouth was shut tightly as he looked at Xi Ying and then at Gu Li.
Xi Ying could tell him to shut up but why was this man asking him to shut up. The old man felt very furious inside his heart and wanted to start another series of colorful words when Gu Li turned to look at Li Rui and said anxiously
"Lady Li, you need to abide by our deal. I wish to know where is Mi Luan."
The mention of Mi Luan made the old man forget his anger. He looked at Li Rui with wide eyes and couldn't help but say a little loudly.
"Girl, you know Mi Luan?"
Xi Ying's eyes narrowed when he saw that even the old man seemed to know this Mi Luan. Who was this person and why does he not know him?
The thing that bothered him most was how protective Li Rui looked about this Mi Luan and he was a man. Now he really wanted to know who Mi Luan is and how does his wife knows him and what kind of relationship this man has with his wife!
Xi Ying suddenly felt his mouth going sour and bitter as he pondered over these questions.
Li Rui didn't answer the old man's question. Instead, she was silently looking at Gu Li. It was a few moments later, that she finally opened her mouth and said
"But for that, you will need to tell me how you know Mi Luan."
