AMLFS Chapter 64

Chapter 64: An Ant Trying to Shake a Tree

Song Huaixi’s eyes held an undisguised longing for Zhao Fangye, his long eyelashes fluttering.

Stirring up an itch in his heart.

Zhao Fangye stared intently at his eyes, the desire within him burning even more intensely. He lowered his head and leaned down to kiss his reddened earlobe.

His voice was low and seductive: “Huaixi, call me husband…”

Somewhat dazed, Song Huaixi’s dark hair was scattered, exuding an aura of being at anyone’s disposal.

He reached out and touched Zhao Fangye’s cheek, his voice soft and obedient as he called out: “Husband…”

Zhao Fangye seemed to be bewitched upon hearing those two words. A storm gradually brewed in his light-colored eyes.

He brought Song Huaixi’s hand to his lips, kissing it lightly, his voice hoarse and rough: “Say it again.”

Noticing that his fingers were being held in his mouth and gently nibbled, Song Huaixi mischievously moved them around between his teeth.

His keen mind perceived that Zhao Fangye enjoyed hearing him say those two words.

Song Huaixi, lying beneath him, had a face full of childishness as he called out several times in a row: “Hahaha, Husband! Husband! Husband, husband, husband!!”

Seeing him like this, Zhao Fangye felt his blood rushing even more intensely, he truly was a seductive little enchantress. He really wanted to devour him whole.

He abruptly lowered his head, capturing his crimson lips, his tongue forcefully invading Song Huaixi’s mouth, engaging him in endless entanglement.

“Mmm… Haa…”

Song Huaixi was somewhat pained by his intense assault and gently pushed him away, only to be met with even more fervent actions from Zhao Fangye.

He muttered in dissatisfaction: “Slower…”

Soon, Song Huaixi became completely defenseless, his whole being rising and falling with Zhao Fangye. He felt like a lone boat on the vast sea.

Floating and sinking in the giant waves named Zhao Fangye, Zhao Fangye’s embrace was warm and forceful, and he quickly became immersed in it.

All the sensations of his body were controlled by Zhao Fangye, the delicate little sachets hanging by the small bed from his childhood jingled all night long.

It wasn’t until the sky began to lighten with the first hint of dawn that Zhao Fangye reached out and took down the swaying bells.

On the bed, Song Huaixi had long fallen asleep from exhaustion.

Sitting by the bed, looking at his tranquil sleeping face, and then at the bells in his hand, Zhao Fangye suddenly had the idea of hanging a string of bells on his fair ankles as well.

He brushed Song Huaixi’s sweat-dampened hair to the side, revealing his fair face.

Zhao Fangye ordered people to prepare hot water to carefully wipe him clean and changed the sheets and bedding before holding him in his arms and falling into a deep sleep.

The next day, Zhao Fangye took Ouyang Tongji to see Song Zigen.

As soon as they entered, Ouyang Tongji saw Song Zigen sitting on the bed and exclaimed loudly.

“Oh my!! You’ve been flogged, how can you sit for so long? Hurry up and lie down!!”

Sitting on the bed, Song Zigen and Lin Rugui, who was beside him, were both stunned, looking at the white-haired old man in the room with puzzled gazes towards Zhao Fangye.

“Who is this?”

Zhao Fangye glanced at Ouyang Tongji, who was still anxious, and explained to the two of them, “This is Ouyang Tongji, a famous divine doctor. There is no disease in this world that he cannot cure. Perhaps there can be a turning point in Lord Song’s illness.”

Upon hearing that this person was a divine doctor, both of them revealed respect in their eyes. Lin Rugui quickly stood up: “So it’s Divine Doctor Ouyang, please have a seat quickly.”

Ouyang Tongji strode forward, waving his hand: “I won’t sit for now! Your man here is the tricky one.”

Having said that, he took three steps in two and went forward to lift Song Zigen’s blankets. Without turning his head, he shouted, “This old man is about to begin treatment, irrelevant people please leave!”

With that, he chased everyone out.

Lin Rugui and Zhao Fangye stood outside the door, listening to Ouyang Tongji’s grumbling voice.

Lin Rugui was a little worried in her heart.

She felt that this divine doctor seemed to be a little different from other doctors. Ordinary doctors would examine the patient by looking, listening, asking, and feeling.

But this divine doctor was different, he began treatment without asking anything as soon as he entered the door.

It looked… it looked a little unreliable.

As if seeing through her thoughts, Zhao Fangye comforted her: “Divine Doctor Ouyang is just a bit informal, but when it comes to medical skills, if he claims to be second, then no one would dare to claim to be first.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Rugui’s doubts were immediately dispelled by more than half. Then she thought that such an amazing divine doctor must be difficult to invite.

Looking at Zhao Fangye, her eyes were full of gratitude and her tone was sincere: “It’s really difficult for the Prince, it must have taken a lot of trouble to invite Divine Doctor Ouyang to come and see my husband’s illness, right? The Prince has already helped us enough.”

“It’s what I should do. Mother is being polite.” Zhao Fangye’s expression remained unchanged: “You are Huaixi’s family, how could this Prince turn a blind eye?”

Seeing him say this, Lin Rugui felt even warmer in her heart. It seemed that Zhao Fangye had completely accepted Song Huaixi. Now she no longer had to be afraid that Song Huaixi would be wronged in the Ning Wang Mansion.

“Still thank you, Prince, be it for Huaixi, or the Song family.” Lin Rugui looked at Zhao Fangye with gentle eyes.

Understanding her meaning, Zhao Fangye looked at her gentle eyes and said nothing more.

Just then, Ouyang Tongji opened the door: “Alright, come in.”

As soon as they entered the room, they saw Song Zigen turning over and lying on the bed, with a hint of embarrassment on his face. He seemed to feel that such a posture damaged his dignity.

Seeing him like this, Ouyang Tongji sat on the chair next to him, took a sip of tea, and glanced at him.

“Stubbornly clinging to face and suffering! You’ve been flogged, and you don’t lie down to recuperate, but you have to sit and show off your strength. Covering it up will cause bedsores, ah?”

This was not the end of it, Ouyang Tongji continued to say, feeling that it was not enough.

“And what mental illness, isn’t it just a bit of humiliation in front of the palace, and you feel that this appearance of yours disgraced your integrity. You cover it up and don’t let people see, so the injury heals slowly, and you’re afraid that people will laugh at you, and you’re overly worried, that’s why it became a mental illness. I say, you should first think about how to save your life. In this life, which is more important, reputation or life?”

He hated people who didn’t take their lives seriously the most, and rebuked, “Pedantic!”

Song Zigen’s face was immediately lost when he was exposed so bluntly in front of the two of them. Ouyang Tongji’s words were very sharp, and he felt ashamed, embarrassed, and anxious in his heart at the same time.

With a “wah” sound, he vomited a pool of blood.

“Husband!” Lin Rugui immediately went forward anxiously, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, “Divine Doctor, what… what’s going on?”

“Madam, don’t worry.”

Ouyang Tongji looked leisurely: “This is the stagnant blood accumulated on the heart vessels, once it’s vomited out, the lord’s mental illness will be cured.”

“Really?” Upon hearing this, the anxiousness on Lin Rugui’s face immediately disappeared, and she hugged Song Zigen and wept with joy.

These days, so many doctors were helpless, telling her to make plans early. Her heart felt as if it was dead. Now someone was telling her that her husband was fine.

This feeling was simply like a dream.

“Thank you Divine Doctor Ouyang! Thank you Divine Doctor Ouyang.” Lin Rugui walked over and wanted to kneel down, but Ouyang Tongji pulled her up.

“Saving people is my duty, Madam doesn’t have to be like this.”

After saying that, Ouyang Tongji took out a pill from the pocket in front of his chest: “This is a pill to strengthen the body’s foundation and strengthen the lord’s physique, but this mental illness still needs a mental cure.”

“I advise Lord Song to not be too worried, in this world, you and I are all ants, how can we vainly try to shake a tree?”

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Fangye and Song Zigen both understood the meaning behind his words.

Song Zigen leaned on the bed: “Thank you, Divine Doctor Ouyang, Song has been taught.”
