"No Wedding Unless Enemies and Lovers" 《不是冤家不拜堂》Chapter 18

 Having heard what was said Xiao Yi Chen raised a finger pointing at his face, he began to doubt the man's medical experience in front of him, he really didn't know where he got the title of miracle doctor, could he not see the red rashes on his face, if it wasn't from poison what else?

Understanding Xiao Yi Chen's meaning, Bai Mo laughed continuing to speak, "These ingredients do not have any toxicity, the embroidery on this pouch is very peculiar..." Bai Mo said as he used a slender fingernail to pick at the threads of the embroidery, the next moment a little fine powder covered his silver white fingernail, Bai Mo tasted it in his mouth, continuing to say, "It's snake grass..."

Xiao Yi Chen frowned, "Snake grass, my face has been poisoned by snake grass?"

Could Ji Yu Qing really have guessed it right, Ji Ling Xue was seeking retribution? 

Bai Mo said: "The poison was very well concealed, if it wasn't for my discerning eyes it really wouldn't have been found, snake grass isn't poisonous, it only causes an allergic reaction when it's mixed with the ingredients inside the embroidered pouch."

Xiao Yi Chen nodded, "Since you know what poison it is, quickly give me an antidote." He couldn't take it any longer, he constantly wanted to itch and struggled to resist scratching his face.

Bai Mo nodded, swaying he entered the house busying about,  Xiao Yi Chen had waited until he wanted to curse without constraint before Bai Mo came out holding a pot of medicine.

Seeing Xiao Yi Chen recover his former handsome appearance after washing his face, Bai Mo smiled saying, "If I was a woman I would also ruin your face, that appearance is too attractive..." He really was curious, which woman dared to destroy Xiao Yi Chen's appearance?

Xiao Yi Chen took in a deep breath, he had some idea already, the woman in the rear courtyard did not want to live peacefully, he secretly went to the side courtyard, Ji Ling Xue was a complete fool, so it must have been Mo Xiang's own idea to send an embroidered pouch over to Ji Yu Qing, she really was a loyal maid, sadly her mistress was a fool.

Xiao Yi Chen did not satisfy Bai Mo's curiosity, the poison was cured, he got up to leave.

Bai Mo pulled on Xiao Yi Chen's arm asking, "You're leaving just like that, are you not going to play a game of chess with me before leaving, you're not forgetting your friend having obtained a beauty right?"

Xiao Yi Chen smiled, waving his hand he said: "We'll find another day to drink tea, I've got something important to do today."

It was already early morning the next day when he left the bamboo forest, he quickly entered the city back to his residence, Xiao Yi Chen's mind was in a mess, when he stood outside the gates of the residence and saw the back of a woman wearing a splendid red dress but with a messy hairstyle, his institution told him that foolish Ji Ling Xue was causing trouble again. 

The guards gatekeeping was originally arguing with the woman about something, when he saw Xiao Yi Chen with a poor complexion they straightened their backs and became serious.

"Ji Ling Xue, you insane woman, you didn't stay in your courtyard and ran out to play?" Xiao Yi Chen vented the anger in his heart, his words were spoken loudly, scaring the guards to turn pale, they wanted to open their mouths to say something, but in the end decided to obediently keep their mouths shut, lowering their heads to become invisible, trying hard to erase their existence.

Xiao Yi Chen seeing that woman in red had not turned around but shrunk her neck, looking like she wanted to find somewhere to hide, without reason his anger boiled over, this was a marriage bestowed by his imperial grandmother, she had supposedly once found someone from Qintianjian to do a fortune reading, Ji Ling Xue would prosper her husband, she was a very good match for him.

This was all a joke, this woman was the greatest stain in his life, she grew more and more foolish, he however couldn't find a reason to divorce her.

Xiao Yi Chen walked behind the woman in red, her hands were currently wrapped around her head in fear, the wide sleeves covered her panic-stricken face, muttering something, now Xiao Yi Chen was certain this woman was the crazy Ji ling Xue, why would he bother to listen to what she was saying.
