I insist

Chapter 200: I Like You

She stood smiling in front of everyone, and as they cheered her on, Song Miqiu placed her hands on her chest and bowed slightly to them as a gesture of respect.

After finishing all this, Song Miqiu followed Ming Taicheng back to her post and began working on her tasks.

When it was finally time to finish her shift, Song Miqiu rubbed her neck and prepared to leave, just as Ming Taicheng got up to leave as well.

"Are you leaving too?" Song Miqiu asked with a smile.

Ming Taicheng nodded, extended his hand, and said with a gentle smile, "Shall we go together?"

"Row!"

The two walked out of the palace side by side. As soon as they left the palace, they saw a tall man standing in a dark corner not far from the palace gate. If you didn't look carefully, you wouldn't notice him.

Song Miqiu was about to wave in Yu Huailin's direction when Ming Taicheng's voice came from beside her, "You may not know, but you've been staying in the palace these past few days. He's worried about you and has been waiting here every day to see if he can get you out."

Ming Taicheng smiled and raised his chin to look in Yu Huailin's direction. In his eyes, the age difference no longer existed.

Song Miqiu is a girl who makes people feel worthwhile, even if she is a little older.

Perhaps because Song Miqiu and Ming Taicheng were standing in the palace for a meeting, Yu Huailin, who was standing in a dark corner, quickly noticed them coming out.

His gaze fell on Song Miqiu, and his eyes instantly lit up.

Yu Huailin strode up to Song Miqiu and Ming Taicheng, bowed to Ming Taicheng, and said, "Imperial Physician Ming."

Ming Taicheng nodded. Now that Yu Huailin was here, there was no need for him to accompany Song Miqiu to leave in the carriage. He made a move to leave first.

Before leaving, Ming Taicheng's gaze lingered between the two of them, and he jokingly said with a smile, "It seems that you two have a really good relationship."

Song Miqiu blushed deeply. She gave a dry laugh and was about to say something when she saw Ming Taicheng leave.

Seeing Song Miqiu staring at Ming Taicheng's departing figure, Yu Huailin felt a little jealous. He spoke up to draw Song Miqiu's gaze back from Ming Taicheng's back.

"How have you been feeling these past few days with Consort Lin?"

Upon hearing this, Song Miqiu's face immediately fell. She looked around and moved a little closer to Yu Huailin, muttering, "You have no idea how terrifying Consort Lin has been these past few days. She gets angry all the time, even though her condition is not suitable for her to get angry."

He listened to Song Miqiu's complaints with his head down, and subconsciously ruffled Song Miqiu's hair.

This action stunned both of them. Yu Huailin coughed lightly, withdrew his hand, put his arm on his shoulder, turned his head to look elsewhere, and rubbed his neck.

Song Miqiu blinked, looked up at the other person, and saw a faint blush on the tip of Yu Huailin's ear.

She lowered her head and chuckled softly. Perhaps because Yu Huailin had seen her true face, Song Miqiu had a different feeling. Although Song Miqiu didn't understand why the other party had seen her true appearance, she remained very calm when she realized that she was not a real old woman.

It was as if they had known all along.

If this scene had happened to Qiu Tianlei and Tian Yumei, they would have been so shocked that they couldn't sleep for a long time, and they would have come to question them about where their mother was!

But then I realized that when Yu Huailin saw it, it had already been several days ago.

She was kept in the palace by Consort Lin for several days, which was probably when Yu Huailin finally processed the matter.

"Be careful next time. There are too many treacherous things in the palace. Be careful not to get caught up in any conflicts." Yu Huailin calmed down for a long time before whispering his advice to Song Miqiu.

Song Miqiu nodded, but Yu Huailin suddenly grabbed her arm. Song Miqiu let him pull her to the side of the carriage. He said, "It's getting late, we should leave sooner rather than later."

Song Miqiu wholeheartedly agreed. Due to her experiences over the past two days, Song Miqiu did not want to see the palace for a while. Every time she saw the palace, she would think of the scene where she almost died at the hands of Consort Lin.

She took the lead, lifting her skirt to sit inside the carriage, with Yu Huailin following closely behind.

Out of the corner of her eye, Song Miqiu noticed that Yu Huailin's seating was a bit crowded, so she shifted her position to the side to make room for him.

But for some reason, an awkward atmosphere suddenly filled the two of them, and for a moment neither Song Miqiu nor Yu Huailin knew what to say.

After a while, Song Miqiu rested her head against the carriage window, looking at the scenery outside with a silent expression, seemingly lost in thought.

As Yu Huailin stared at the other person's profile, an image of Song Miqiu wearing the new clothes he had given her suddenly flashed into his mind, and a faint smile appeared in his eyes.

He suddenly thought of something, looked down at the person leaning against the car window, and asked softly, "Why did you join the Imperial Hospital in the first place?"

"Huh?" Song Miqiu turned around, looking at the other person with confusion, and asked, "Why did you suddenly say that?"

“After all, the palace is too dangerous,” Yu Huailin lowered his eyes and expressed his thoughts. “This time, Consort Lin almost killed you, but your medical skills impressed her. But what about next time?”

"If they carry out an assassination, you won't have a chance at all."

Yu Huailin felt a chill run down his spine at the thought of what Song Miqiu might encounter in the future.

He's only been waiting at the palace gate for a few days now. What if something happens to Song Miqiu in the palace next time? Where will he be waiting for her then?

Despite being scolded repeatedly, Song Miqiu didn't react at all. She stared at the person in front of her with her beautiful eyes, her thoughts somewhat dazed.

She opened her mouth slightly, wanting to ask the other person, wanting to hear them say the words "I like you".

Song Miqiu could sense that Yu Huailin did indeed like her.

The question was stuck in her throat, and she couldn't say it.

Yu Huailin's face flushed slightly. He pursed his lower lip, pondering how to express everything he wanted to say to the other person.

He knew very well that he liked Song Miqiu, and even more so that he had liked her for quite some time.

If this matter isn't brought to light, Yu Huailin feels he's going to go crazy!

"Song Miqiu".

"Ok?"

Song Miqiu's sixth sense told her what Yu Huailin would say.

Her fingers nervously fiddled with the chair in the carriage, and she pursed her lips, waiting for the other person to speak.

Yu Huailin reached out and pulled Song Miqiu's hand to his chest, speaking in a hoarse voice, "I think..."

A figure suddenly appeared in front of the carriage, startling the driver awake. He looked at the person in front of him and quickly pulled on the reins, forcing the horse to stop to avoid hitting the person, accompanied by the driver's curses.
