Exposed
Ding Yao couldn’t confirm it for the time being, but she had to be careful because she hadn’t forgotten that someone was thinking about letting her die. Ding Yao blinked and had an idea. She shook her head and said to Lin Hu, “I don’t want to go to the capital.”
After Song Xiuyan understood Ding Yao’s meaning, he was a little surprised, but he still told everyone what she was thinking.
Lin Hu was very surprised. “Why not? You’d rather stay here and live a hard life than go to the capital with me and live a good life?”
Ding Yao let out a few gasps and explained, “No one will understand what I’m saying in the capital, but Song Xiuyan will understand.”
When Lin Hu heard Song Xiuyan’s translation, he waved his hand and said nonchalantly, “That’s not a problem. I will definitely get the best doctor in the capital to cure your throat.”
Ding Yao pursed her lips. “But the doctor from One Side Sky said that my throat has been bad for too long, and it can’t be cured.”
Lin Hu snorted. “How can a doctor from the countryside compare to a doctor from the capital? You just lost your voice, and you’re not born deaf and dumb. Believe in me. The doctors in the capital will definitely be able to cure you!” fre(e)webnov(l).com
Ding Yao shook her head, looking as if she wouldn’t budge. “I’m not going. I’m used to living in the countryside.” These were her true thoughts. Even if Lin Hu didn’t have any problems, she wouldn’t follow him to the capital. It wasn’t that she couldn’t bear to part with Song Xiuyan, but she had just arrived in this world. There were all kinds of medicinal herbs in the Song family village, and they were very suitable for her development. She wanted to treat this place as her headquarters, and going to the capital would only restrict her development. After all, to outsiders, it was strange for a girl from the countryside to have too many things, so no matter how one looked at it, she couldn’t go to the capital.
When Lin Hu saw that Ding Yao refused time and time again, he finally lost his temper. “You mean, you’d rather be a mute than live a good life with me in the capital? You’re so self-depraved! Do you know what those people outside say about you? They say that you’re an unlucky person, a jinx, and will bring disaster to your family. The Song family is already so unlucky. What if one day, he believes your words and drives you away?”
It would have been fine if Lin Hu hadn’t said those words, but after he said those words, Ding Yao suddenly had a thought. Could it be that the person spreading the rumors was Lin Hu?
Only after Lin Hu lost his temper did he realize that he had lost his composure. He felt goosebumps from Ding Yao’s gaze. He had a feeling that Ding Yao had seen through something, so he took a deep breath. “Ding Yao, don’t blame me for having a bad attitude. I was just too worried about you. Consider it thoroughly. Don’t reject it all at once.”
Ding Yao smiled slightly. Because she had a guess in mind, she wanted to see what Lin Hu would do in order to take her away. Sometimes, the more he said, the more he would do, and the more flaws he would reveal.
However, Lin Hu was also a smart person. After handing the gift to Ding Yao, he said directly, “I hope you can think it over. I still have other matters to attend to. I’ll go back today and come back to see you tomorrow.”
Lin Hu and Wang Hongxia didn’t even have a sip of tea before they hurriedly left Song Xiuyan’s house. After the two of them left, Song Xiuyan pulled Ding Yao into the study. “Do you really not want to go to the capital? Why?”
Ding Yao nodded. “I can dig up medicinal herbs here and sell them. I can also use my medical skills to treat illnesses and save people. If I go to the capital, I’ll become a good-for-nothing. I don’t like that kind of life.”
Song Xiuyan gave Ding Yao a deep look. So that was what Ding Yao was thinking. Using her medical skills to save people was much more important than living a good life. Ding Yao’s ambition was too great!
After knowing that Ding Yao wouldn’t leave with Lin Hu, Song Xue happily hugged her. “Sister Ding Yao, I will always be good to you!”
Ding Yao patted Song Xue’s head and silently smiled. This little girl was really cute.
At night, Wang Hongxia came again. This time, she came with the second uncle of the Ding family. Ding Yao thought that this time, they must have come for the Snake Swallow Stone. She didn’t expect that she would guess wrong again. As soon as Wang Hongxia entered the house, she pulled Ding Yao and was about to walk out. “Ding Yao, your second uncle and I are here to bring you home. Ever since you came to the Song family, your father scolded me whenever he saw me. He said that you’re so young, how could you be casually brought home by a man? He said that I had to bring you home today. Otherwise, I couldn’t go back.”
Ding Yao shook off Wang Hongxia’s hand and looked at her coldly. Wang Hongxia must have taken stuff from Lin Hu and wanted to bring her back to the Song family first so that her father could ask Lin Hu to take her away as a parent. Hmph, the more Lin Hu wanted to take her away, the more she refused to go!
