The Invincible Supreme Medical God-Chapter 151 - 150: Yan Xiaobao’s Trick
Chapter 151: Chapter 150: Yan Xiaobao’s Trick
...
What’s going on?
Where am I?
Have I been kidnapped...
A series of panicked question marks popped up in succession. Gao Jing’s heart was filled with extreme fear.
She remembered her brother, Gao Ming, had brought a young man referred to as "Divine Doctor Yan" to see her. The last thing she remembered was "Divine Doctor Yan" reaching out to tap the space between her eyebrows...
Could it be that this "Divine Doctor Yan" did something to her and kidnapped her?
That can’t be right. Gao Ming was there at the time; how could he let someone take her away?
Besides, that "Divine Doctor Yan" looked young, brilliant, and harmless, not at all like some vicious kidnapper...
But if this isn’t a kidnapping, then why are her hands and feet tied, her eyes blindfolded, and her mouth gagged?
Could something else have happened? What exactly went down?
...
Gao Jing wasn’t wrong. Upstairs, in the restaurant above the basement, Tiantian was like a delicious delicacy, being enjoyed at leisure by Yan Xiaobao as if served on a silver platter...
In the chaos of her terror, Gao Jing had not noticed that the sorrow and grief over the past, which had been tormenting her, seemed to have been momentarily forgotten...
Just as Gao Jing took a breath of relief, she suddenly heard the sound of a door opening, followed by approaching footsteps.
"Who are you...? What are you going to do...? Don’t come any closer..." Gao Jing shrank back like a frightened fawn, struggling to move away.
The person approaching didn’t answer. They walked up to Gao Jing, removed the blindfold from her eyes, and gently peeled off the tape from her mouth.
Gao Jing stared at the grinning Yan Xiaobao and asked in panic, "It’s you... You’re Divine Doctor Yan?"
"That’s right." Yan Xiaobao nodded. "My name is Yan Xiaobao."
"You... why am I here? What do you want with me? Where’s my brother? What have you done to him?" Gao Jing stammered, a torrent of questions spilling out.
Yan Xiaobao answered succinctly, "Your brother lost a bet, so as agreed, he gave you to me as my wife. I plan to cure your illness first and then officially make you my wife."
"Wha... what?" Gao Jing was completely bewildered. "This is impossible! There’s no way my brother would use me as a wager! Besides, who I marry isn’t up to him!"
"I’m not lying to you. Your brother was convinced I couldn’t cure Liao Qihua’s heart failure, so he wagered you as collateral for my Rourou. In the end, he lost, so now you’re my wife." Yan Xiaobao said with a playful smile. "Whether your brother has the final say or not doesn’t matter. What I say is what counts."
"You... you’re insane..." Gao Jing struggled violently. "This is kidnapping! You’re breaking the law! Let me go, or I’ll scream!"
"Go ahead and scream if you like." Yan Xiaobao casually placed a heated takeout meal in front of Gao Jing. "Or, you could eat first, fill your stomach, and scream louder afterward."
Gao Jing didn’t call for help. She was too familiar with the trope of "scream all you want, no one will hear you" from countless TV shows and movies. She didn’t want to waste her energy, nor did she want to show fear and helplessness in front of this "kidnapper."
Yan Xiaobao proceeded to untie the ropes around Gao Jing’s hands and feet. "Eat up while it’s still warm."
Gao Jing hesitated, staring at Yan Xiaobao without moving. Although she was indeed a bit hungry, in such a situation, how could she dare to eat food offered by her "kidnapper" so casually?
"I’m above putting drugs in the food, and there’s no need for it," Yan Xiaobao said. "Don’t worry; I won’t force you to do anything you don’t want to do. I’ll make sure you willingly become my wife."
"In your dreams!" Gao Jing gritted her teeth.
After being trapped in despair and pain for so long, she felt she wasn’t even afraid of death. There was no way she’d let someone like Yan Xiaobao, a wolf in sheep’s clothing, succeed. frёewebnoѵēl.com
"I mean it. Within a month, you’ll see for yourself." Yan Xiaobao got up and headed for the door. "I’ll leave you to eat and rest. Starting tomorrow, I’ll begin treating your illness."
"You’re the one who’s sick!" Gao Jing glared angrily at Yan Xiaobao. Watching him leave and close the door, she collapsed onto the ground, as if all the strength had drained out of her body.
It seemed... she really had been kidnapped...
Gao Jing wandered around the basement but quickly gave up on the idea of finding a way to escape. As a frail woman, there was no way she could pull off a real-life prison break.
"Grumble... grumble..." Her stomach protested loudly in hunger.
After thinking it over, Gao Jing finally sat down and began wolfing down the food.
She didn’t know what Yan Xiaobao would do to her tomorrow, but she needed to be full to have the energy to resist. Besides, Yan Xiaobao probably wouldn’t drug her food. If he wanted to force anything, she didn’t have the strength to resist anyway.
After finishing her meal, Gao Jing sat numbly on the mattress, her mind a mess, filled with fear, confusion, and disbelief.
How did she go from sitting safely at home to being inexplicably kidnapped?
What era was this? How could absurd things like betting wives and sisters still happen?
And even if Gao Ming had lost his senses and gambled her away as a "wife," there was no way Grandpa would allow him to go through with it...
What on earth was going on here?
Wait!
Suddenly, a light bulb went off in Gao Jing’s mind. She remembered Gao Ming introducing Yan Xiaobao as the senior apprentice of Medical God Hua Mingyuan! If that were true, then...
This could very well be a setup planned by Grandpa, Gao Ming, and Yan Xiaobao—a highly unconventional method to help her work through her emotional scars.
Yes! That has to be it!
Having pieced everything together, Gao Jing finally relaxed completely.
Now that she understood the truth behind this "kidnapping," she didn’t feel scared at all. She lay down to conserve her energy, ready to expose Yan Xiaobao’s little charade the next day.
