Chapter 1493: Her Highness the Princess (43)

After marveling at how formidable Tang Guo was, Lü Yufan ignored the lingering dizziness in his head and quickly climbed out of bed, hurrying next door to check on Lin Yuexiang.

Yun Buxiu had been waiting outside all along. Seeing the frail, pale-faced Lü Yufan emerge behind Tang Guo, he remarked, “Your body has yet to recover. You should lie down and recuperate for another two days.”

Lü Yufan did not recognize Yun Buxiu, but from the very first glance, he knew this was no ordinary person.

Then he remembered that Tang Guo had been reborn just as he had.

She had undoubtedly changed many things. It was only natural that such an extraordinary man would appear by her side.

“This is National Preceptor Yun Buxiu. Not only is he skilled in divination, but his medical skills are also excellent. He treated your illness yesterday. Your mother had already been halfway to death, and he was the one who brought her back,” Tang Guo explained to Lü Yufan.

Upon hearing this, Lü Yufan immediately cupped his hands and bowed deeply to Yun Buxiu, his face full of gratitude.

“Lü Yufan thanks National Preceptor for saving our lives.”

“No need to thank me.” Yun Buxiu maintained a lofty and indifferent expression. “You should thank Her Highness. If not for her orders, I would never meddle in such affairs.”

Even Yingzhu beside them couldn't hold back her laughter.

The National Preceptor truly had two faces.

In front of her mistress, he would flatter and fuss over her endlessly. But in front of everyone else, he assumed the demeanor of a lofty master above worldly affairs.

Yingzhu had to admit that she somewhat admired the speed at which he changed expressions.

One moment, he could be asking after Her Highness's well-being with utmost concern, and the next, he would become cold and distant toward everyone else.

It was obvious how deeply he cared for Her Highness.

What a pity.

He should never have thought of scheming against her during their first meeting.

No matter how good he was now, if Her Highness had no intention of doing certain things, then as her personal maid, Yingzhu would never interfere with her choices. Her only duty was to serve Her Highness well.

Lü Yufan was intelligent and immediately understood something.

Yun Buxiu looked utterly indifferent toward him, but the instant he mentioned “Her Highness,” his tone and gaze softened at once.

He couldn't help sighing again.

As expected of the favored Eldest Princess. Her rebirth had practically carried her straight to the heavens.

Of course, he wasn't jealous.

He only felt that fate truly played strange tricks.

After all, he had returned as well. His mother hadn't died, and his younger sister hadn't fallen into a life of degradation.

Instead, he felt fortunate.

Fortunate that the Eldest Princess had been reborn.

Otherwise, even if he himself had returned to this point in time, what could a mere child like him have accomplished?

He wouldn't have been able to save his mother, and his sister would probably have vanished without a trace.

So he truly owed the Eldest Princess his gratitude.

Lü Yufan silently swore that in this lifetime, he would remain loyal to this princess forever, thereby repaying the wrongs he had committed in his previous life after being deceived by villains.

Tang Guo noticed the change in his eyes, but she didn't care.

She had only one reason for saving Lü Yufan's family.

She simply didn't want Lü Qing to live comfortably.

There was no grand righteousness involved.

It was purely selfishness.

System: Yet somehow, Host always ends up gaining another willing ox to plow the fields for her.

After seeing Lin Yuexiang, Lü Yufan truly relaxed.

Although his mother's injuries were severe, her life had been saved. After two months of recuperation, she would recover.

As long as she was alive, that was enough.

Then, with tears in his eyes, Lü Yufan bowed deeply to Tang Guo three times.

“Your Highness, what should I do next?”

She had saved his life.

Everything he had in the future ought to be arranged by her.

And he was willing to do so with all his heart.
