The next day, Lu Zheng took Du Yuru's family to observe the local customs in Tonglin County, and then the Du family took their leave.
However, it was decided that Du Yueyao would stay behind to learn medicine from Liu Qingyan. A servant and a guard from the Du family remained, renting a courtyard in Tongyi Lane and began tidying up.
Once everything was settled, Du Yueyao would come and live for a while each month to study and assist in medical consultations with Liu Qingyan.
"Why did you agree to it?" Lu Zheng asked Liu Qingyan.
Liu Qingyan chuckled softly, "I could tell that the girl from the Du family genuinely loves studying medicine and has a kind heart. Since that's the case, why would I refuse?"
"But..."
Liu Qingyan smirked, "Hehe, I don't mind, after all, I'm a fox spirit, and you're a direct disciple of the White Cloud Temple. If you were to marry..."
"No way!" Lu Zheng shook his head and gently silenced Liu Qingyan with a kiss.
"Mmm—"
