Mythical Beasts: The Useless Lady Is a Genius!

Kong Rui didn’t expect the Hua family to really treat her as one of their own.

Since she could enter and exit freely, things would be much more convenient in the future.

As Kong Rui followed the servant to Hua Shang’s room, she bumped into Ding Mao, who was about to get the medicine.

As soon as Ding Mao saw Kong Rui, he immediately rushed forward excitedly. “Little Master, you’re finally here!”

Kong Rui raised her eyebrows, but avoided Ding Mao’s outstretched hand and chuckled as she asked, “Doctor Ding, who are you calling?”

Ding Mao was stunned for a moment, and a blush actually appeared on his slightly wrinkled face. “Your medical skills are brilliant., so I admire you. Consider this as my apology for my previous ignorant behavior!”

“Don’t!” Kong Rui immediately raised her hand and rejected him. “I don’t deserve to be called a master. Doctor Ding, don’t give me this sort of title!”

After Kong Rui finished speaking, without waiting for Ding Mao’s response, she asked, “How’s Hua Shang? I’m here to see how he’s recovering!”

At the mention of Hua Shang, Ding Mao revealed an even more excited expression. “Young Master Hua has been able to get out of bed and take a few steps after he woke up yesterday!”

“You’re really a miracle doctor! You’re an expert!”

Kong Rui didn’t want to listen to Ding Mao’s flattery, so she quickened her pace and rushed into Hua Shang’s room.

As soon as she walked into Hua Shang’s room, Kong Rui bumped into Mr. Hua, who had come out to welcome her.

When Mr. Hua saw Kong Rui, he couldn’t help but smile. “Kong Rui! You’re finally here!”

Kong Rui nodded and didn’t chat with Mr. Hua anymore. She walked to Hua Shang’s bed quickly.

Hua Shang was sitting by the bed. Although his face was still pale, he seemed to have regained some strength.

“Kong Rui, you’re here!” When Hua Shang saw Kong Rui, he immediately wanted to get up and greet her.

Kong Rui went forward and pushed Hua Shang back to the bed. Then, she picked up Hua Shang’s wrist to check his pulse.

Kong Rui wasn’t familiar with pulse diagnosis. Although the Poison Master had taught her some basic methods back then, she had only learned these techniques from a medical book later on.

Kong Rui frowned as she checked on Hua Shang. Mr. Hua stood at the side with his mouth shut.

Ding Mao, who was about to get the medicine, instructed the child beside him to get it instead. Then, he stayed behind to watch Kong Rui diagnose Hua Shang, for fear that he would miss any details.

Kong Rui ignored the others and focused on Hua Shang.

Hua Shang looked down at Kong Rui’s hand and saw that her fair hand was on his pale wrist. In contrast, Kong Rui’s hand looked soft and delicate.

Hua Shang was stunned for a moment. Before he could react, Kong Rui had already retracted her hand.

“The person who planted the poison is really ruthless!” Kong Rui gritted her teeth.

Although she already had some guesses about the person who planted the poison, she didn’t dare to jump to conclusions without confirming things.

Gu poison wasn’t like ordinary poison and a single mistake could put Hua Shang’s life in danger.

“Madam, are you saying that the poison hasn’t been detoxed?” Mr. Hua looked at Hua Shang worriedly.

Hua Shang didn’t seem to care about his own health. Instead, he asked Kong Rui, “Did you bring news from the royal family this time?”

Not knowing how he guessed her thoughts, Kong Rui looked at Hua Shang in surprise.

Hua Shang smiled and said, “The last time you borrowed a carriage to enter the royal family, Hua Shang guessed that you might be related to the royal family. This time, when Hua Shang was poisoned, you seemed to have guessed who the person who poisoned him was, so I think you’re either from the five great clans or the royal family.”
