Chapter 174, Number One Hundred and Seventy-Four: The First Guest

The unfamiliar cough startled Wen Shu.

She abruptly pushed Luo Fei away, pulled him behind her, wiped her lips, and looked at the person who had come.

It was a well-dressed young male who was carrying a totem and was looking at them with a half-believing, half-doubting expression, blinking his moist deer eyes.

"Can you really cure broken bones?"

"of course."

Wen Shu felt she had never been so lucky to have customers on her first day of business.

Moreover, judging from his attire and appearance, he is clearly of noble birth. If he is cured, why would anyone be afraid of not helping to promote the treatment?

She cleared her throat and bluntly ordered Luo Fei, "Go and boil a bowl of medicine so the guest can try it out."

Luo Fei was still swollen, and he held onto her tightly, refusing to let go.

Her wrist was tightly gripped. Wen Shu turned her head and saw that his eyes were red and full of unsatisfied accusations. Her gaze fell a few points downwards.

"you……"

Her ears turned red, and she cursed Luo Fei for being shameless. But fearing embarrassment, she quickly sent him away, saying, "Go on your way. We can talk about it when we get home."

Having received a vague and ambiguous reply, Luo Fei felt somewhat relieved and stepped away from where he stood.

Wen Shu quickly got into the zone and guided the male into the cubicle, saying, "The medication will take half a day to take effect. If you have something urgent to do, you'd better take care of it now."

The male's eyes were filled with complex emotions. He shook his head, glanced at the warmly decorated room, and then suddenly stopped and sighed silently.

"Never mind, I'll just..."

A bitter smile curled at the corner of his lips. He felt like he had gone mad. After all these years, he still believed that there were orcs who could heal bone wounds.

He lifted his slightly hunched leg and turned to leave.

But Wen Shu couldn't let this opportunity slip by.

"and many more!"

She quickly blocked the doorway, and when she saw Luo Fei come over after finishing the soup, she hurriedly took the bowl of dark, murky medicine. "You're the first customer since the shop opened, so it's all on the house. Since you're free now, why not give it a try? You never know, it might work!"

The man stopped in his tracks, and Wen Shu handed him the bowl directly, speaking in a soft, seductive voice, "Just this bowl of medicine is enough. When you wake up, your leg will be completely healed."

Hearing the female's confident tone, Buck, who had been longing for a full recovery, began to waver.

Since he broke his leg while saving the eldest prince, he was dismissed from his post and everything was taken away by his brothers. Getting back to health is really important to him!
Perhaps, his walking into this store was destined?

A resolute glint flashed in Buck's dark eyes. He picked up the bowl and gulped it down, but before he could finish, everything went black, and he fell heavily to the ground.

Seeing that he had collapsed before finishing his drink, Wen Shu stiffly turned around. Luo Fei guiltily turned his face away, covering his lips with the back of his hand, "Cough, I didn't control the dosage well."

"..."

Too lazy to argue with him, Wen Shu had Luo Fei move the man to a soft chair, closed the door to the cubicle, and then completely healed Buck's injuries.

All of this was done in just a moment.

She directed Luo Fei to set up the propaganda board outside the door, and then found Wu Xuan to finish distributing the remaining totems together.

When they returned to the cabin, Wen Shu hadn't even entered yet when Buck excitedly ran towards her, wanting to pick her up.

But before anyone could touch it, a thick dragon tail lashed out fiercely!

Buck was hit in the abdomen and flew several meters backward. When he got up, he apologized to Luo Fei, "Sorry, I was too excited!"

He stretched his legs, his voice trembling, "Females really work! What kind of reward do you want? Crystal coins, or official positions? As long as I have them, I can give you whatever you want!"

Hearing him say that, Wen Shu couldn't help but smile.

Stable.

This identity is not simple.

She didn't mince words, but since walls have ears, she could only make her request more tactfully: "If it's free, it's free. But we can be friends!"

"Please help spread the word in the future. If my shop can treat members of the royal family, it will surely become famous throughout the entire empire..."

Wen Shu's eyes lit up, then she raised her hand and laughed it off, saying, "It was just a casual remark. We'd be very grateful if you'd help with the publicity." Understanding her meaning, Buck's eyes flickered, thinking she was ambitious and wanted to curry favor with the royal family.

However, introducing her to the royal family to alleviate his serious illness would also be very beneficial for him.

This is a great thing that kills two birds with one stone.

“Of course,” Buck raised an eyebrow and smiled, “your shop will be famous throughout the empire.”

Buck is a man of his word.

More than half a month later, the wooden huts, which had been doing sporadic business, gradually became bustling. The cubicles were full every day, to the point that even if you waited in line for a whole day, you might not get a turn.

More than half of them came after being introduced by Buck.

That day, after having breakfast, Wen Shu, along with Wu Xuan and Luo Fei, headed to the cabin in the warm sunshine.

Nearly a month into her pregnancy, her lower abdomen was slightly protruding, not very noticeable, but the men were extremely nervous.

Especially Wu Xuan, he insists on carrying her even when they're just walking, saying things like, "What if you trip over a pebble?"

Wen Shu, who was used to being free-spirited, felt uncomfortable being suddenly restrained. "Wu Xuan, I want to walk by myself."

She stared longingly at the ground, while Wu Xuan remained silent, only tightening his arms around her.

The meaning is clear: it's unsafe, it won't work.

He was definitely not like this before!

Wen Shu was on the verge of tears, slumped in Wu Xuan's arms, and secretly looked at Luo Fei, trying to seek help.

However, noticing her gaze, Luo Fei raised an eyebrow, turned his face away without making a sound, and pretended not to see it at all.

Little did she know that the two had already reached an agreement.

Uh-huh promised not to interfere with Luo Fei's antics.

Luo Fei will also not disturb Wu Xuan in taking care of the females.

"That's strange, why is there no one in line today?"

Luo Fei gazed ahead, speaking thoughtfully.

Hearing him say that, Wen Shu's attention was diverted.

Sure enough, the wooden cabins that had been packed with people queuing up until the early hours of the morning in recent days were now deserted, with only a lonely advertising board and...

Several tall, imposing males, dressed in white uniforms with gold patterns and their long hair tied up with red metal bands, stood at the door, looking around intently.

Upon seeing their attire, Wen Shu's lips curled into a smile.

After such a long time, the royal family finally arrived.

As they approached from afar, the males hurriedly came to greet them, with Buck, who had been reinstated, leading the way.

"Wen Shu, you've finally arrived! Her Majesty the Queen has suddenly fallen seriously ill. Please come with us to the palace!"

He was sweating profusely with anxiety; the Queen's condition was clearly more serious than ever before.

Wen Shu propped herself up, feeling that Wu Xuan's arm hadn't relaxed at all, and then helplessly lay back down. "Luo Fei, go get the things."

The group walked quickly toward the palace, but the males behind them had doubts.

"Why not just bring the medicine into the palace? Why do you have to bring people with you?"

The male, who had a rough understanding of the cabin, responded in a low voice, "This is the female's secret recipe. The order of preparation and the utensils are all kept secret. No one but her family has ever seen it..."

Led by Buck, they entered the palace without incident, but when they approached the Queen's bedroom, guards stopped them.

"This is Wen Shu, a female, who has come to treat the Queen."

Buck explained urgently, but the leading guard did not move. He glanced at Wen Shu and said in a deep voice, "Her Highness Yuna has instructed that only females may enter the Queen's bedchamber."
