I insist

Chapter 140: Heart Medicine

At the same time, Song Miqiu could also sense that Yu Huailin was referring to a certain person in his words.

She glanced at Yan Yufan instinctively, her eyes revealing helplessness.

The other party was taken aback. Looking at Yu Huailin, who was acting coquettishly next to Song Miqiu, he smiled helplessly, shrugged, picked up the folding fan on the table, and stood up.

“Since someone is looking for their cousin, I, as her cousin, naturally can’t disturb them,” Yu Huailin joked, ignoring Song Miqiu’s helpless expression, and tactfully strode away.

Before leaving, Yan Yufan thoughtfully closed the door.

Song Miqiu looked towards the door and, seeing that the person was completely gone, placed her small hand on Yu Huailin's head and said speechlessly, "The person is gone, can't you be normal for once?"

The other person got up with Song Miqiu's help. Seeing Song Miqiu frowning as she spoke to him, a dangerous glint flashed in Yu Huailin's eyes. He stared intently at Song Miqiu's eyes and said angrily, "How is that abnormal?"

He released Song Miqiu's hand, stood up, placed one hand on the wooden table with fingers spread, and pointed at Yan Yufan with the other, "Do you know what I saw when I came in..."

At this point, Yu Huailin paused, then gritted his teeth, "Seeing you two so close, and you still treating each other so kindly, I've never seen you act like this before, apart from family!"

He turned his head to the side and said coldly, "I've never seen anyone as fickle as you."

Song Miqiu was both amused and exasperated by Yu Huailin's words. She smiled, braced herself against the wooden table, and stood up, taking a step forward.

She only reached Yu Huailin's shoulder, and to see his expression, she had to look up. Song Miqiu poked Yu Huailin's chest hard with her finger and said irritably.

"Only you would think that way; no one else does."

Song Miqiu paused, then changed the subject, "Furthermore, you just said that aside from family, Yan Yufan is my cousin, the son of a collateral branch of my family. Would you say he's family?"

Before Huailin could react, Song Miqiu continued, "He just came to give me an invitation. You're overthinking it. I was so rude to him, yet you overheard it as if we were being intimate."

As she spoke, Song Miqiu felt speechless, and she couldn't help but lower her head and furrow her brow.

"An invitation?"

Seeing that Yu Huailin was unaware, Song Miqiu acknowledged his words, turned around and walked to the bookshelf, pulled the invitation out of the medical book, turned around and waved in Yu Huailin's direction, "This is it."

Upon seeing the invitation, Yu Huailin realized that he also had one.

"Since the Yan family has invited us to their banquet, why don't we go together that day?"

Song Miqiu looked at him in surprise, and then she looked Yu Huailin up and down. "You received it too?"

"What kind of expression is that?" Yu Huailin said angrily.

The other party immediately waved their hand to indicate that they had not said anything.

During her few days working at the Imperial Hospital, Song Miqiu kept inquiring about things related to Yan's father, so that she could choose a gift.

A day later, she learned that Yan's father had heart disease and suddenly remembered that the system's exchange portal seemed to contain heart medication.

Looking at the crowd around her, Song Miqiu carefully walked towards a small room.

After confirming that no one was inside, she opened the system panel, found the heart medicine, and saw that the points were so expensive, Song Miqiu's eyes widened suddenly.

Staring at the heart medication on the system panel, Song Miqiu bit her lower lip, closed her eyes, tilted her head, and forcefully clicked the confirm redemption button to redeem a bottle of heart medication.

Before long, Song Miqiu had a bottle of heart medicine in her hand. She only glanced at the medicine briefly before carefully placing it in the bundle she had brought.

This process takes less than the time it takes to brew a cup of tea.

Song Miqiu was afraid that if she saw the heart medicine, she would think of all the points she had spent and feel a pang of pain in her heart.

There were many people attending the Yan family banquet that day. Song Miqiu was dressed simply and was extremely inconspicuous among them, as was Yu Huailin beside her.

The two of them appeared in a corner. Song Miqiu looked around and whispered, "Let's sit here at the banquet for a while, eat something to fill our stomachs, and then leave."

She always felt out of place here, and the presence of many familiar, hypocritical faces around her was rather repulsive; she didn't like it.

Yu Huailin nodded, agreeing with Song Miqiu's wishes.

"Oh, isn't this Song Miqiu?"

Suddenly a voice rang out. Song Miqiu looked up and followed the sound. After seeing who it was, she immediately lowered her eyes and continued with her own business.

Lin Yecheng stood before Song Miqiu and Yu Huailin with one other person. Lin Yecheng glanced at Yu Huailin, then fixed his gaze on Song Miqiu, and said sarcastically, "How dare you show your face at this banquet? Does the Yan family invite just anyone to their banquet?"

“Yes, we invite in all sorts of demons and monsters.” Song Miqiu looked up at Lin Yecheng with a half-smile.

The other party was speechless after being rebuked by Song Miqiu's words. He looked around at the people, and fortunately, not many people were paying attention to his situation, so he managed to save face.

Zhang Jiesheng and Yu Huailin looked at each other in mid-air. He took a few steps forward, and the distance between the two was very close.

Jason Zhang slightly raised his eyes to meet Yu Huailin's gaze, his eyes devoid of emotion, and said with a faint smile, "What a coincidence, to see you at the Yan family banquet."

"Unfortunately, the Yan family's banquet invited a wide range of people, so it's normal that you saw me," Yu Huailin said coldly.

Both men suffered setbacks at the hands of Yu Huailin and Song Miqiu, respectively. Zhang Jiesheng could still hold back his anger, but Lin Yecheng was different.

He saw that Song Miqiu's hands were empty, obviously she hadn't prepared any gifts.

Lin Yecheng coughed lightly, raised the object in his hand, and looked at Song Miqiu with a smile, "Song Miqiu, today is Master Yan's fiftieth birthday. Wouldn't it be inappropriate if you didn't bring something?"

How come you didn't know I didn't bring it?

"Why don't you bring it out and let us all see it?" Lin Yecheng immediately egged on.

Not wanting Lin Yecheng to get too close, Song Miqiu took out a white porcelain bottle and waved it in front of Lin Yecheng, saying casually, "See? This is my gift."

Lin Yecheng blinked, looked at the white porcelain bottle, and thought it probably wasn't some important pill.

The pills from the Imperial Medical Academy were almost all for the Emperor and the concubines in the harem. Given that Song Miqiu was quite bold, she wouldn't dare to take anything from the Imperial Medical Academy. Therefore, the porcelain bottle in her hand must have been bought casually from outside.

Thinking of this, Lin Yecheng's lips curled into a sneer, his eyes full of disdain. "Song Miqiu, I know you're poor, but there's no need to be this poor. You can't even come up with a decent gift. Don't you even look at the garbage you brought?"

Song Miqiu rolled her eyes at Lin Yecheng, not wanting to say anything more to him.
