At a low counter on one side, a thin-faced man was sitting inside, concentrating on taking the pulse and examining the patient outside the counter.

The man was extremely handsome, wearing a moon-white, dark bamboo brocade robe, with his hair tied up with a jade crown, which made his skin look as white as jade.

At this moment, his eyes were slightly drooped, his long eyelashes fell, and a light blue shadow was cast under his eyelids. He seemed like a guest in a distant mountain, with an ethereal and immortal air that was not tainted by dust.

"Luo Fan, the medicine is ready." A pleasant voice came, and a girl in red was seen holding a stack of packaged medicine and placing them in front of the young man.

The girl's face was like a silver plate, her eyes were like water apricots, her lips were red without any makeup, and her eyebrows were green without any drawing. She was a real beauty.

She was wearing a light red chiffon dress, which was beautiful in style and well-cut. The neckline was very wide, revealing her graceful neck and delicate collarbone, which made her already graceful figure even more graceful.

The young man named Luo Fan nodded to thank her, then took the medicine bag and handed it to the patient opposite him with both hands, and patiently instructed him: "Take one dose of this medicine every day, boil it in warm water, and take it for seven days. Your cough will be cured."

The patient took the medicine bag, thanked repeatedly, and then left. Then another patient sat down at the examination table.

Xia Younan looked at the young man and said casually, "This doctor is so young. He opened such a big clinic at such a young age. He is really young and promising."

Lu Xiuyuan smiled and said jokingly, "Thank you for the compliment, Madam Boss. This clinic is OK, but it's not the largest in the capital."

Xia Younan slowly looked at him, his eyes almost popping out, and asked in disbelief: "Don't tell me that the boss behind this clinic... is also you."

Lu Xiuyuan shrugged, "Why not?"

Xia Younan was really shocked by him and looked at him for a long time without being able to speak.

Lu Xiuyuan put his arm around her shoulders, pointed at the busy boy and girl, and introduced them to her.

"That young man is Shen Luofan, and that girl is Hongwu, the shopkeeper of Yizhai. They are all my people, and they are looking after my business."

After he finished speaking, Shen Luofan and Hong Wu also noticed him.

After seeing Xia Younan beside him, both of them had a flash of surprise in their eyes, and then nodded at him as a greeting.

Lu Xiuyuan responded and pulled Xia Younan to sit on a stool beside him, ready to wait for them to finish their work.

It was not until lunchtime that all the patients in the clinic left one after another. The red-dressing girl immediately pushed Shen Luofan out of the examination table.

That’s right, it was pushed. The chair that Shen Luofan was sitting on... was actually a wheelchair!

Xia Younan opened his eyes wide in surprise and reflexively looked towards his legs, but saw that his legs were covered with a blanket and he couldn't see clearly.

Hong Wu pushed Shen Luofan to Lu Xiuyuan and knelt down to salute him, "My Lord, are you...recovered?"

Lu Xiuyuan nodded, "Well, I'm recovered, why are you here again?"

Hong Wu glanced at Shen Luofan beside her, a trace of loneliness appeared in her eyes, and she replied: "Yizhai has enough manpower, Luofan is even busier here, I will come to help him."

"Well, it's rare that you're so thoughtful. How has Luofan been recently?" Lu Xiuyuan turned his gaze to Gu Luofan in the wheelchair.

Shen Luofan nodded calmly, "I am doing fine, but I feel sorry for the prince. From the time the prince got into trouble until he recovered, we never visited him. I am really ashamed."

Lu Xiuyuan shook his head and said, "Don't feel guilty, it was me who ordered you not to set foot in the palace.

"Your existence is a secret. There are spies inside and outside the palace. How can you get in? If you reveal anything, it will be dangerous for us all."

"Well, thank you for your understanding, Your Highness." Shen Luofan lowered his head, with a melancholy look in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows.

After the greetings, Lu Xiuyuan put his arm around Xia Younan's shoulders and introduced them to the two men, "This is my wife. You guys get to know her. From now on, seeing her is like seeing me, and her words are like my words. You guys will obey her orders."

"Yes," Shen Luofan and Hong Wu agreed in unison and greeted Xia Younan, "Meet the Madam."

Xia Younan also nodded in response, "Hello."

After saying hello, Xia Younan's eyes fell on Shen Luofan's legs again. Curiosity drove her to ask, but she was afraid of hurting other people's self-esteem.

Shen Luofan saw through her thoughts, a bitter smile appeared on his face, and he said, "My leg... is useless, it was broken when I fell. Thanks to the prince for saving me, otherwise Hongwu and I would have lost our heads."

Xia Younan was shocked, squatted down and looked up at Shen Luofan, blurting out: "Then you are an angel who fell into the mortal world."

Shen Luofan was stunned and looked at her at a loss.

Xia Younan smiled and explained, "Legend has it that there are immortals in the Ninth Heaven. Every hundred years, they will be calamity-ridden and come to the mortal world to experience all kinds of life. Because it is a calamity, the fate of the immortals is usually more unfortunate than that of ordinary people, and most of them are physically disabled.

"When the calamities are over, the immortal will be reborn and return to the immortal class. Master Shen must be the immortal from the Ninth Heaven who came down to earth to experience the calamities."

Shen Luofan was shocked by her words. He looked at her blankly, and his heart, which had been silent for many years, began to stir.

It was the first time someone had said that to him.

When others learn about his situation, they will only shake their heads in pity and sigh with sympathy, as if they were looking at a poor creature.

But he did not see any pity or sympathy in the eyes of the girl in front of him.

Considering that he was in a wheelchair, she condescended to squat in front of him and told him seriously and gently: he was an angel who had fallen into the world.

How pure and gentle must this girl's heart be to be able to say such beautiful words?

No wonder the unkind prince personally admitted that she was his wife.

As if afraid that he would not believe her, Xia Younan listed the evidence carefully. "In fact, your name says it all. 'Luo Fan' means falling into the mortal world. What can fall into the mortal world? Only gods can do it."

Shen Luofan chuckled, his eyes seemed to be flushed, his Adam's apple rolled, and he said to her: "Thank you."

Hong Wu, who was standing nearby, was so shocked that she covered her mouth. Her eyes were red as she choked with sobs, "Luo Fan laughed. This is the first time he... laughed since his leg accident."

Xia Younan looked at her, feeling sorry for the young man, and asked Shen Luofan, "You are a doctor, can't you heal his leg?"

Shen Luofan shook his head lightly and let out a faint sigh, "It's useless."

"No use? So you haven't tried it?"

"I……"

"He didn't!" Hong Wu interrupted, a little emotional. "I have long advised him to try to stand up again, but he just wouldn't listen. He thinks he is completely disabled, he is giving up on himself, and he won't even try."

Shen Luofan snorted and laughed at himself, "If you are useless, you are useless. There is no need to struggle. Once you are used to staying in the darkness, you will not long for the light."

Xia Younan looked at him in silence for a moment, then sighed, "Young men should shoulder the responsibility of enjoying the beauty of the wild grass and the bright moon, instead of falling into depravity in the loneliness of a starless and moonless world.

“Try hard, and you may find that you were just being played lightly by fate. Looking back, it may have been just a false alarm.”

Shen Luofan looked at her clear eyes, and his heartstrings seemed to be plucked by something, and the pleasant sound echoed throughout his heart...
