Chapter 188 - Lin Zhou: First Step of Their Plan (1) (1/2)

Yao Ying was in deep discussion with Lin Jian and they finally came up with a sound plan, but they had to make a few preparations first. When they realized that the two kingdoms tried to frame their kingdom, they decided to use another kingdom's identity when saving Han Xiang --- but of course, bit by bit.

When they were given this task, the organization already said that they had their full permission to make a plan and do as they saw fit. They didn't need to tell them about everything as long as they got the job done and they could borrow their people as they saw fit. The trust they got was because of Wang Luo Hai and General Lin.

When Yao Ying had finished talking about the matter, Yao Ling already woke up and finished bathing. When she went out of the room to find something to eat downstairs, Yao Ling met Yao Ying and Lin Jian who came out from Lin Jian's room --- which located next to the couple's room. After seeing Yao Ling, Lin Jian remembered another thing and decided to remind Yao Ling for a bit.

”Yao Ling... I know that you are busy with Qing Hui's matter, but I remember that you got a direct order from the matriarch, right?” He cleverly said the matriarch's name.

Yao Ling was taken aback but she remembered about the medicine that the matriarch had entrusted to her. ”Oh yes! I almost forgot!” She clapped her hands when saying that. She looked at Lin Jian gratefully and said, ”Thank you for reminding me!”

Lin Jian only grinned and said, ”You are welcome!” After that, he left the couple all alone, trying not to make the couple feel suspicious of him. He laughed inwardly and thought to himself, 'I don't know whether you will thank me later or not... after knowing the medicine effect.'

Oh well... he just needed to remember to prepare his ears when the time came!

In their room, Yao Ying told Yao Ling their new plan and she murmured her agreement, thinking that it was indeed a good idea. She didn't really help them with the plan because she was busy with other matters. Yao Ling would continue treating Qing Hui while Yao Ying and Lin Jian did the preparation. Not only that, but Yao Ling also needed to stay with Xiao Fang and didn't let her know about their plan.

Xiao Fang knew that she had nothing to do because Han Xiang hadn't arrived yet, so she would follow Yao Ling everywhere --- even when she was treating Qing Hui. She looked diligently while Yao Ling was concentrating on Qing Hui's treatment, she admired Yao Ling's cleverness and talent. She started to realize that except for the four arts --- she didn't have any other talents.

Yao Ling kept wondering why Xiao Fang always covered her face and she decided to ask the reason out of curiosity, ”Xiao Fang, why don't you take down your veil once in a while? Don't you feel uncomfortable if you keep wearing it? The weather is quite hot at the moment.”

Xiao Fang laughed and answered, ”I already get used to it. My father always told me to wear my veil everywhere to prevent men from leering over me.” After saying that, she realized that she would appear to be conceited if she said that and she looked down shyly. She already got used to her father and brother said that so it became a habit.

Yao Ling patted her hands. ”Why do you look so guilty? If you are beautiful, then you are beautiful! I'm not going to say that you are arrogant.” Yao Ling knew that Xiao Fang was just being honest and she didn't think much about it. It wasn't like she was being her friend because of her face, she liked her personalities.

Xiao Fang asked Yao Ling, ”Yao Ling, have you heard from Yao Ying when will Han Xiang arrive in this city?” She had heard that it was supposed to be two or three days but how come they didn't see any signs of their appearance?
