Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant

Chapter 571: Chapter 571: Are You Seeking Revenge for Personal Grievances?

Yunyi did it on purpose. If Wu Bingjie dares make a sound, he won’t get off easy today.

Wu Bingjie probably realized this, so he chose to endure quietly instead of reacting, but in his heart he was thinking: Just you wait.

But how could Yunyi just let him go? After all, this was Hua’an Farm Reclamation’s clinic, where members of the Agricultural Reclamation Group received subsidies for medical visits, but people from nearby villages had to pay for treatments out of their own pockets.

Although keeping him here was very unsettling, seeing him suffer more bitterness and pay extra medical fees was still quite satisfying.

So when it came to stitching the wound, the matter of administering anesthesia wasn’t mentioned.

Yunyi directed Kong Jiaqiao to help him treat the wound, then prepared to stitch it up herself.

This terrified Wu Bingjie: ”Aren’t you going to use anesthesia?”

Yunyi lifted her gaze slightly, pretending not to know him: ”The clinic’s anesthesia has just run out. Doctor Qiu went to the county to get medicine today; it’s just a few stitches, you as a grown man shouldn’t be so fussy, right?”

Yunyi wasn’t lying; the clinic indeed was out of anesthesia. Doctor Qiu had been on call last night and probably couldn’t make it to the county this morning, so he would only manage to go in the afternoon.

Standing by, Zhang Wenjuan wanted to speak, but recalled Wu Bingjie’s previous attitude toward her, so she maintained a spectator mentality, standing there pretending not to hear.

Wu Bingjie wanted to say something, but Kong Jiaqiao interrupted: ”You’re a grown man, why are you so picky? You could’ve been done stitching by now.”

Wu Bingjie simply couldn’t believe Yunyi’s words and blurted out: ”Are you settling a personal score?”

Yunyi looked at him with a sharp demeanor: ”What did you say?”

This time Zhang Wenjuan’s reaction was timely, she tugged at Wu Bingjie and then turned to Yunyi: ”It’s nothing, just a few stitches.”

And didn’t forget to give Wu Bingjie a signaling glance.

Yunyi naturally noticed her small gesture and guessed what she was up to, probably wanting Wu Bingjie to seize the opportunity to play the victim.

Was the plan to use this to get at her?

They might be disappointed; the clinic really was lacking anesthetics. Several days ago it was reported to the county, but there had been no supply, so Doctor Qiu planned to waste his day off by personally taking a trip there.

Only after understanding Zhang Wenjuan’s intention did Wu Bingjie agree.

Seeing him nod, Yunyi then proceeded, her technique seemingly skilled to onlookers, but only Wu Bingjie knew how painful each needle’s sting felt.

Yunyi completed the stitching and left the follow-up to Kong Jiaqiao, silently sprinkling a trace of colorless, tasteless powder onto the wound as she stood up.

Then she got up and briskly left the ward.

After Kong Jiaqiao finished treating the wound and left, Wu Bingjie was drenched in sweat.

Seeing the people leaving, Zhang Wenjuan eagerly asked: ”What should we do next?”

Wu Bingjie gritted his teeth: ”Since she foolishly hands us a handle, we certainly shouldn’t waste such a good opportunity.”

Then he instructed her in a low voice: ”Go on, make a bigger scene.”

Zhang Wenjuan thought about the scene later, feeling a bit embarrassed, but she didn’t want to miss such a chance; she strongly wanted Chuyunyi to have a ruined reputation.

So she took a deep breath and decisively walked out of the ward.

Remembering the Ye Family renaming her Zhang without mercy, a sense of humiliation arose from her heart. She hurried to the clinic entrance: ”Everyone come look, the doctors at this clinic are heartless.”
