Chapter 483: Chapter 483: Chu Lan Suspects Wei Ruo’s Identity_1
“Alright.” The old Lady Lu did not hesitate and immediately followed Wei Ruo’s instructions.
Next, Wei Ruo turned to Wei Jinyi and said, “Wang Jin, I need you to help me collect the severed limbs. Don’t let anyone take them or damage them! Once you’ve found them, get some ice from the cellar of Lu Residence to keep it cool!”
In this weather, ordinary households would not have ice. But the Lu Residence was not an ordinary household, and such households would store ice in their cellars for their own use.
Wei Jinyi promptly carried out the instructions.
Chu Lan happened to approach just as Wei Ruo was saving people while directing others to do their tasks.
Watching Wei Ruo’s skilled hands, Chu Lan was stunned.
The purple figure before his eyes began to overlap with the figure in his heart…
Wei Qingruo, Xu Heyou.
Xu Heyou, Wei Qingruo…
They…
Even though they looked completely different, at this moment, because of their skilled treatment methods, Chu Lan associated the two together.
In a daze, Chu Lan seemed to find many similarities between them.
Such as height, shape, and their hands working on the injured right now…
All of Wei Ruo’s attention was focused on treating the injured, and she did not notice Chu Lan’s gaze towards her.
At this moment, she did not have a shred of extra attention for other things, her every move could determine the life or death of people like Xiu Fengyuan and Lu Yuhong.
An hour later, the simple hemostasis work was done, and Wei Ruo also examined the condition of each injured person, providing some stable support to their bodies.
Only then did Wei Ruo have the injured carried away.
Then, Wei Ruo turned to Wei Jinyi and said, “I need to return home now. Can I ask Master Xu to treat them?”
Wei Ruo was seeking Wei Jinyi’s opinion. She couldn’t continue treating the patients as Queen Rui, but she wasn’t sure if she could treat them under the guise of Xu Heyou.
Wei Ruo could ignore the life and death of other patients, but Xiu Fengyuan and Lu Yuhong knew her, and if she didn’t save them, her heart would not rest.
“Of course, I will escort Queen Rui home and bring Master Xu here,” Wei Jinyi answered.
Wei Ruo rose from the ground. Her previously immaculate clothing was now stained with blood, with several pieces torn from the hem, causing the bottom of her skirt to be ragged and irregular.
Because she had been kneeling for a long time, her legs felt somewhat numb. Wei Ruo staggered slightly as she got up.
Wei Jinyi immediately reached out to steady her.
Wei Ruo was taken aback, then quickly withdrew her hand and leaned on Xiumei instead.
Although most of the guests had been sent away by the old Lady Lu, there were still some people left at the scene.
Among them was Chu Lan.
Wei Ruo left with Xiumei’s assistance, passing Chu Lan on her way out.
Wei Ruo felt Chu Lan’s gaze on her the entire time. His blatant stares made her feel uneasy.
“Queen Rui, do you know a gentleman by the name of Zhu?” Chu Lan suddenly asked Wei Ruo.
Wei Ruo stopped and calmly asked, “Zhu? I don’t recall. I only know a few men outside my family, and I don’t think there’s anyone by the name of Zhu. If there is, I might have only seen him from afar.”
“Is that so?”
“King Jing, I have something else to attend to. I won’t keep you for idle chatter. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask my husband on another day.”
