"Are you... aren't you the one who took Divine Doctor Wen away?"
This ti, accompanying them was one of those who had blocked the gate, demanding that Wen Jinjin provide free treatnt, right?
He still rembers Tang Raoming brazenly taking people away from here. Ever since that day, he's held a grudge against Tang Rao, whose appearance is etched into his mind like a knife—it's not easy to forget.
"I thought your mory might have deteriorated to that extent. To rember now truly makes feel lucky!"
Tang Rao snorted, though his words said he felt lucky, there was no part of him that actually felt fortunate!
"Enough nonsense, quickly release Divine Doctor Wen. Don't think we don't know she was forced to co with you. If you return her to us now, we'll pretend nothing happened. But if we find Divine Doctor Wen ourselves, sorry, none of us will let you off!"
Hmph!
Hmph!
Dozens of people carried hoes, held large knives and dustpans, glaring nacingly at Tang Rao.
They never claid to be reasonable people, so when Tang Rao doesn't comply and gets injured, he can only be blad for bringing it upon himself!
"Haha, you all say Divine Doctor Wen was forced by , but what if she willingly ca with ?"
Arguing with irrational people makes Tang Rao feel exhausted, but Wen Jinjin still needs so ti to arrive. As long as Tang Rao can stall until then, when Wen Jinjin personally admits she willingly stays by Tang Rao's side, he wants to see what other excuses they can co up with.
"Impossible, Divine Doctor Wen stayed in our Peach Blossom Village for so long, never showing any intention of leaving. How could it be when you arrived, she suddenly wanted to? Besides, our villagers saw you take Divine Doctor Wen away with their own eyes. Divine Doctor Wen looked reluctant at the ti. You must be the one who forced her, so stop denying it."
The dark-skinned man is easily swayed, believing whatever the villagers say. Over ti, Tang Rao was completely vilified as a black-hearted man under the villagers' influence.
Luckily, Tang Rao didn't have to argue with these ignorant people for too long; Wen Jinjin soon appeared before the villagers in a simple long dress.
Many present had been treated by Wen Jinjin before. Apart from Wen Jinjin leaving Peach Blossom Village, they had quite a good impression of her.
When they were impoverished and couldn't afford the high dical fees in Purple Crystal, Wen Jinjin waived them all, thoughtfully caring for those lacking access to healthcare until they fully recovered.
Wen Jinjin's compassion then led the villagers to develop dependency, so much so that they were willing to travel far and risk their lives to demand her return for an irrelevant outsider.
"I've left Peach Blossom Village behind, yet you still won't let go? Do you wish for to die in Peach Blossom Village? Or is this how you treat your benefactors?"
Wen Jinjin's voice was cold, causing everyone present to shiver.
That once-pale woman who spoke weakly has since recovered at Kao Shan Sect. Perhaps because she's been alone for so long, she holds so reliance on Tang Rao but feels repulsion towards these strangers from outside.
This indescribable feeling left Wen Jinjin feeling blocked-up, as if cotton stuffed her heart.
"Jin Jin, it's chilly outside, why didn't you wear more?"
Tang Rao naturally approached Wen Jinjin, his left arm encircling Wen Jinjin's waist. It seed genuine and unpretentious, making anyone sensible see that Tang Rao was simply acting out of habit.
"Wasn't I worried people would bother you because of , so I rushed out a bit?"
She looked at Tang Rao, with a faint smile playing at the corner of her mouth. For the villagers, Wen Jinjin's smile elevated her to the status of a Goddess even more, intensifying their resolve to bring her back to Peach Blossom Village.
"Divine Doctor Wen, we finally got to see you! Our entire Peach Blossom Village eagerly awaits your return. We're here today to stand up for Divine Doctor Wen; tell everyone, wasn't it that brat who insisted on taking you away? If not, I'll take his life!"
The dark-skinned man fell in love with the ethereal-looking woman at just a glance, his good temper vanished seeing Tang Rao's hand still on Wen Jinjin's waist.
"And who are you? This is my ho, I ca back from Peach Blossom Village with my husband. Problem?"
What, ho, husband?
Wen Jinjin's words felt like punches, pounding the hearts of these villagers.
How could it be, their fairy-like Divine Doctor, how could she be Tang Rao's wife?
And the fairy-like Divine Doctor didn't seem like soone who had gotten married, this is all too strange!
"Divine Doctor Wen, you can't refrain from telling us the truth just because you're threatened by this man. How about this, we'll stand up for you, tell us the truth and all of us here, even if it costs us everything, we'll take you away from here!"
The dark-skinned man, who originally stepped forward to help, now saw Tang Rao as a love rival. He was not just helping the villagers retrieve their esteed doctor but also planning for himself, wondering how he might win over Wen Jinjin, making her forget Tang Rao and beco his woman.
"Impossible, I'm not going back to Peach Blossom Village; it's just a foreign place to . The last ti I nearly died of illness over there; and now you want to go again to die? Or do you plan to exploit the herbs on my dying body to save your family before I die?"
After thoroughly saying these words, Wen Jinjin felt much more at ease.
She's not a weak or timid woman, but often dislikes rejecting others. Had the villagers from Peach Blossom Village not gone too far this ti, she wouldn't have bravely stepped forward to tell them what she truly thinks.
"What do Divine Doctor Wen's words an? Why didn't you ntion Divine Doctor Wen's illness earlier? Did you really ask Divine Doctor Wen to help despite her poor condition?"
The dark-skinned man fully believed Wen Jinjin's words. He turned, his eyes sharp as daggers as he looked at the villagers. Anyone caught by his gaze couldn't help but lower their head, unable to et his eyes.
"You tell , what's all this about?"
The man randomly grabbed the closest man to him, using quite a heavy hand, making the man visibly tremble.
