The Wrong Way to a Demon Sect Leader (Web Novel) - Chapter 57
Chapter 57
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
Yan Daifu is currently cooking the medicine.
He doesn't like anyone watching him treat illnesses, he also doesn't like other people helping him to make the medicine. At dawn, he shakes the fan to start the fire himself. At this moment, he hears Zhao Jiangui come in, he merely raises his eyes slightly, seeming disinclined to even greet him.
Zhao Jiangui says, "I've come to fetch the medicine."
Yan Daifu, "It's not ready."
Zhao Jiangui asks, "How much time still?"
Yan Daifu, "At once."
Zhao Jiangui is forced to wait.
He thinks he wants to inform Xiao Lin as soon as possible, make Xiao Lin relay word back to the Haoran Alliance again. He absolutely cannot let the Demon Sect prevail in their plan.
The medicine still hasn't finished cooking.
Zhao Jiangui's heart is jittery, he really wants to talk to someone. He recalls that Ji Han said Yan Daifu came from the medicinal Xian Gu, likely his third shimei's husband is his shixiongdi. Soon he opens his mouth to inquire, "Yan Daifu, you come from the medicinal Xian Gu?"
Yan Daifu glances at him, doesn't answer at all.
Zhao Jiangui asks, "I don't know which master you studied under?"
Yan Daifu has already ladled out the medicine.
Zhao Jiangui, "You may know the skilled doctor Mo Qingfeng* from in your valley?"
Yan Daifu lifts his head to icily watch him, expression fierce, "My matters, are none of your concern."
Zhao Jiangui, "..."
Yan Daifu suddenly retreats back one step, drops his eyes again, says neutrally, "The medicine is ready."
Zhao Jiangui, "..."
Zhao Jiangui is forced to carry the medicine and leave.
He follows the road back. Wei Qi has already left, Xiao Lin and the head maidservant keep watch outside the door. He doesn't dare speak openly about this issue with Xiao Lin, forced to go through the door. Ji Han sits beside the table, wrinkles his brows and asks him why he's returned so late.
Zhao Jiangui says, "The medicine was a bit slow to cook."
He had just heard that bit of talk, his heart had mostly cooled down earlier. This moment, he already doesn't know what else he should say to Ji Han. He has no choice but to silently carry the medicine bowl over, also sit down, and watch Ji Han drink the medicine.
Ji Han takes a tiny sip of the medicine, the space between his eyebrows immediately pinches up, and he tightly purses his lips. A good while passes, then he miserably mumbles lowly the phrase, "So bitter."
Zhao Jiangui sighs a breath.
"You must still properly drink your medicine if it's bitter." Zhao Jiangui says straight-faced, "You're not allowed to dump it out."
Ji Han lightly groans, sips another mouthful of medicine, whispers, "I don't hate bitterness, I also don't want to pour it out."
With one mouthful of medicine, Ji Han almost chokes with tears filling his eyes, coughs for ages, just then he furiously says, "You're not allowed to go down the mountain again!"
Zhao Jiangui, "..."
Ji Han seems to realize where he went wrong, continues hastily, "I just don't hate bitterness!"
Zhao Jiangui says, "Finish drinking your medicine first."
Ji Han goes silent, stares at that medicine bowl, clenches his teeth, and drinks down his medicine in one gulp.
Zhao Jiangui can't help but slightly expose a smile, lowering his voice patronizingly, "Truly unafraid of bitterness, little her--...Demon, ah."
Ji Han, "..."
Outside the door, Xiao Lin and the head maidservant's low laughter can be heard.
"Why are you laughing!" Ji Han is exceptionally enraged, "Laugh again and you can take yourself to the torture chamber to get your tongues pulled out!"
At once, there are no sounds outside the door.
Ji Han turns his head, soon sees that Zhao Jiangui seems to be smiling, too.
That smile pales, more or less somewhat difficult to perceive. Ji Han stares slightly, suddenly glares at him.
Ji Han says, "You want to go to the torture chamber, too!"
Zhao Jiangui doesn't smile, he feels somewhat excited.
It's come, it's come again!
In however many days there hasn't arisen the right use of the word book's phrases, ya!
Xiao Lin had been slow to give him the new word book written by the seniors, he had already started worrying he wouldn't be able to continue on!
"No need to go to the sect's torture chamber." Zhao Jiangui says slowly, "Jiaozhu, I only want to get up on your 'torture chamber.'"

*清风/qīngfēng - This is a different Qingfeng (as in even the characters are different) than what are used for Zhao Jiangui's altered name in the drama.
