364 Unhappy
On the way back to his room, Fang Tianliu restrained himself from looking inside the Zhang family’s room and went straight to Doctor Sun.
“You’re back so soon?”
Doctor Sun was sitting in the courtyard preparing medicinal herbs. When he saw Fang Tianliu return, he frowned. “You don’t look too good. What happened while you traveled?”
Fang Tianliu was dejected. He walked to the courtyard’s entrance and all the strength in his body suddenly dissipated. He slumped his shoulders and walked into the courtyard, then sat down dejectedly.
“Doctor Sun,” Fang Tianliu held his head in his hands and spoke weakly, “What do you think all this is about? Is the world against me? Did I do something wrong to anger the gods?”
Doctor Sun casually threw him a handkerchief. “Wipe the scar on your face. It’s an eyesore to me.”
“Good to see you haven’t changed.” Fang Tianliu laughed bitterly, and obediently took the handkerchief to wipe his face.
“What’s up with that scar on your face?” Doctor Sun used the pestle to point at the corner of Fang Tianliu’s eyebrows. “That one definitely doesn’t look fake.”
“That’s because it’s real.”
Fang Tianliu wiped his face with the cloth and sighed.
There was a scar at the corner of his eyebrow that extended to his ear. Fortunately, the scar was very thin and did not look very ferocious.
“Let me have a look,” Doctor Sun held Fang Tianliu’s chin and turned his face in front of his eyes. “It just so happens that I’ve recently boiled a bunch of scar-removing medicine. There’s a lot of it anyway, you should use some. With a scar on his face, you won’t be able to take the imperial examination anymore.”
“Doctor Sun, don’t make fun of me. I can’t even run my family’s agency well, how can I take the imperial examination?” Fang Tianliu shook his head. “Just let this scar stay. I don’t have anyone I want to please.”
Doctor Sun glared at him and gave him a bottle of medicine. “You don’t want your child to cry because of your face, do you? Take the medicine, don’t be silly.”
Seeing that he did not respond, Doctor Sun’s tone changed. “Do you not believe that the child in Miss Li’s stomach is yours? When you were sent back from Huai County, I could tell from your pulse that your high fever was caused by excessive leakage of energy. Miss Li has been guarding the child in her belly well, why do you look so unhappy?”
