For a while, although everyone stood in front of the Divine Physician's Clinic without leaving, no one went inside.
They were all waiting for the first person to take the plunge, but that person had yet to appear.
This scene was not unexpected to Bai Li Hongzhuang. In fact, when she was preparing to open the Divine Physician's Clinic, she had already anticipated this outcome.
After the successful opening of the Divine Physician's Clinic, Ji Wenbin returned to the Wan Yao Pharmacy. As the store manager, he had to take care of business.
"Why hasn't anyone gone in even though the first three patients receive free treatment?"
Among the crowd, a man who had just arrived at the entrance of the Divine Physician's Clinic couldn't help but ask curiously.
"This physician is a young girl in her teens. There are no senior doctors present. Who would dare to let her diagnose and treat them? If something goes wrong, wouldn't it be unfortunate?"
"Ah, it's probably just a farce orchestrated by some rich young lady. Let's go!"
People shook their heads one after another, and the once bustling Divine Physician's Clinic gradually became deserted. No one was willing to accompany a young girl in staging a drama.
Seeing this scene, Bai Li Hongzhuang remained calm. Her target audience for this clinic was the high-ranking officials and nobles who could afford to pay a substantial fee.
She didn't have much time to dedicate to benevolent medical care. Opening this clinic was just a means to pave her own path of cultivation. Whether ordinary people came or not, she didn't care much.
However, among the crowd, one figure glanced deeply at Bai Li Hongzhuang, confirmed her identity, and quickly left.
In the Celestial Palace.
"You said Bai Li Hongzhuang opened a Divine Physician's Clinic?" Emperor Bei Chen's incomparably handsome face showed interest as he played with the ring on his finger, looking at the black wood in front of him.
Black Wood nodded earnestly, "Yes, but due to Bai Li Miss's young age, no patients have visited."
Emperor Bei Chen appeared nonchalant. He was not surprised by this scene. "How did Bai Li Hongzhuang react?"
"She remained indifferent." After pondering for a moment, Black Wood looked at Emperor Bei Chen before continuing, "Just like your current expression, Young Master."
Emperor Bei Chen's deep eyes shimmered with a purplish-blue light as he paused. "This Bai Li Hongzhuang is completely different from before. Can you find out what she has experienced in recent years?"
"According to the information I gathered, her change began after her failed suicide attempt. It's as if she became a different person." Black Wood expressed his doubts.
"If it's not a complete change of identity, then she has been hiding all along." Emperor Bei Chen narrowed his eyes slightly. "Could all this hiding be solely to cancel the engagement with Xuan Yuan Huan?"
The possibility of a complete identity change was too low in theory, leaving only the possibility of hiding.
Bai Li Hongzhuang suddenly changed after the engagement was broken off. Besides that reason, there seemed to be no other explanation.
Black Wood was taken aback. Xuan Yuan Huan had always been dissatisfied with the marriage, but could Miss Bai Li hate the engagement as well?
"Black Wood, come with me to the Divine Physician's Clinic later." Emperor Bei Chen smiled faintly. "I also want to see how my wife is doing."
Black Wood, who was already surprised, widened his eyes upon hearing these words. He wished he could slap himself to confirm if this was really something the Young Master said.
"Master, no patients have come at all." Xiao Hei sat on the table, his round eyes filled with distress.
She had hoped that the Divine Physician's Clinic would be bustling with business, so she could have some food to eat along with her master. Now she was afraid that her master would starve to death.
