This year's Yang year August 29th was the Lunar July 7th. The legendary day of the Qixi Festival when the cowherd and weaver girl meet had evolved into the Chinese equivalent of Valentine's Day.
That day was Ye Li's birthday.
"Old Zhu, believe me, support me," Ye Huang patted Doctor Zhu's shoulder. He was confident he would persuade him.
Multiple emotions flickered through Doctor Zhu's eyes.
In the end, a myriad of feelings condensed into a long sigh, "Alright! But I must stay by your side every step of the way. If something happens, I will administer medicine to her. This is a must, and you must not oppose it."
"Okay," Ye Huang agreed.
The two who had reached an agreement returned the way they had come; Doctor Zhu needed to give Bai Xiao a more thorough check-up.
Ye Huang then said abruptly, "Just go through the motions with the check-up, don't scare her. I'll take her to the mountains to visit my master, and we'll stay for a few days."
