After refusing marriage, she was pampered by the prince who acted as a shield.

Chapter 220: Door-to-Door Persuasion

Ye Ruoruo closed her eyes and subconsciously turned to leave.

But as soon as she closed her eyes, Li Chun's pitiful appearance instantly flooded her mind.

She sighed and then stopped in her tracks.

As a doctor, Ye Ruoruo couldn't bring herself to be cruel.

After taking a deep breath, Ye Ruoruo turned around and knocked on the door of Jinglie Prince's Mansion again.

The gatekeeper knew her.

"Miss Ye, you've come again?" The servant greeted Ye Ruoruo with impeccable manners as he opened the door for her.

But for some reason, looking at the respectful servant in front of her, she still felt a little uncomfortable.

She frowned almost imperceptibly: "I'd like to speak with Princess Jinglie privately about something."

"Please wait a moment, I'll go inform them." The servant was very well-behaved and trotted into the Prince's mansion.

Upon hearing the servant's report, Lin Rusi did not hesitate and immediately had someone bring her in.

She didn't know what had made Ye Ruoruo come to see her, but since she had made a special trip, she couldn't refuse to see her.

While waiting for Ye Ruoruo, Lin Rusi specially asked someone to prepare some tea and snacks so that Ye Ruoruo could rest later.

Not long after, Ye Ruoruo rushed in.

She walked in a hurry, her pretty face showing a hint of anxiety, which puzzled Lin Rusi.

"What happened? Why are you in such a panic?" She stood up and stepped forward to ask, "Or do you need any help?"

Ye Ruoruo shook her head, wanting to say it directly, but seeing Lin Rusi's very sincere appearance, she hesitated to speak.

She thought for a long time, but still didn't know how to say it.

"Please have a seat."

Seeing this, Lin Rusi smiled and greeted her.

Once the two were seated, tea and refreshments were served. Seeing how thoughtful Lin Ruosi was, Ye Ruoruo felt even more embarrassed to speak.

Her hesitant manner only confused Lin Rusi more: "What exactly happened? Is it serious?"

Remembering Li Chun's appearance, Ye Ruoruo reaffirmed her decision and said seriously, "I just went to find Miss Li Chun."

After she said that, Lin Rusi immediately understood and put on a knowing look.

"I see. Then Miss Lin must have a lot to say."

Ye Ruoruo was a little surprised by her initiative.

"It wasn't meant to criticize the Princess, it's just..."

"Try this pear cake. My relationship with Li Chun isn't that simple." Lin Rusi didn't reply, but instead pushed the tea and snacks over for her to try.

Firstly, Lin Rusi didn't really want to discuss this issue, and secondly, she wanted Ye Ruoruo to slow down and not take sides so quickly.

Ye Ruoruo is a doctor, and it's not good to go against a doctor. It would be best to win her over if possible.

However, judging from the other side's aggressive approach, it seems that maintaining peace is the only option.

Ye Ruoruo felt even more uncomfortable because of her enthusiastic actions. After all, she wasn't on Li Chun's side; she just couldn't stand by and watch and wanted to come over to persuade her.

But Lin Rusi doesn't seem like a bad person, so there must be some misunderstanding.

"I know that the princess is not such a wicked and cunning person, but Miss Li Chun's problem this time is really not simple. If something like this happens again in the future, I'm afraid she will not live long and will not be able to live well. The people of the Li family will also suffer greatly."

Ye Ruoruo sighed and said earnestly.

She didn't dare to openly confront Lin Rusi, but if she didn't make her purpose clear, then her trip would have been in vain.

She wouldn't be satisfied until she could save Li Chun.

Fearing Lin Rusi might misunderstand, she quickly added, "I'm not speaking up for Li Chun. I'm just a doctor, thinking about saving people all over the world..."

Lin Rusi remained expressionless, but a hint of patience appeared in her eyes.

But Ye Ruoruo didn't pay any attention and continued, "I really couldn't bear to see her in so much pain, so I came here. I have no ill intentions. I just hope that if there are any conflicts in the future, Your Highness might as well use your methods elsewhere. Isn't it too much to use mental illness as an excuse?"

Lin Rusi smiled slightly at her gentle tone and said calmly, "If we ignore the other party simply because one of the two victims is more seriously injured, it would be unfair. What do you think?"

Ye Ruoruo was taken aback by her words: "Does Your Highness mean there's more to this than meets the eye?"

"I understand what Miss Ye means, but this matter is not as simple as you think. As for the methods involved, it's not something I can tell you all by myself. Before you came here, did you hear anything about what Li Chun did?"

Ye Ruoruo blushed slightly and asked in a low voice, "Could it be that Miss Li Chun went even further?"

Upon realizing this possibility, she immediately felt extremely guilty: "I was unaware of any other misunderstandings. Please forgive me, Your Highness."

"There's no need for you to repent. In the end, you're just a passerby. Why come to me to question me?"

Ye Ruoruo shook her head hastily: "I wouldn't dare."

"Don't worry, I won't use this little thing to convict you. It's just that you were too impulsive, Miss Ye."

Ye Ruoruo felt a little embarrassed, after all, she really didn't fully understand the conflict between the two of them, she just came because she felt sorry for Li Chun, and now she thought that decision was really stupid.

Lin Rusi felt helpless seeing her full of regret.

She didn't want to deal with this kind of thing again and again!

"But Miss Li Chun is really seriously ill. Is she really alright?" Ye Ruoruo still felt a little reluctant.

Lin Rusi closed her eyes briefly: "I thought you would understand, but you are still stubbornly clinging to your delusions. Who is Li Chun to you? You don't even know what she does. Are you judging who is more wrong between us based solely on her pitiful appearance?"

Ye Ruoruo frowned, "No..."

"Speaking of which, how long have you known Li Chun? What kind of personality does she have, how do you know her way of doing things? Do you know that if it weren't her lying here making a scene, it would be me? If it were you, facing such a hidden danger, would you choose to save yourself, or let others humiliate you?"

Lin Rusi stared at her, her gaze sharp: "If you feel sorry for Li Chun because of the so-called 'doctors have the heart of parents,' you can befriend her. However, you should worry about how she will die in the end."

Lin Ruoruo trembled, incredulous: "Your Highness, what you say..."

She wanted to say that Lin Rusi's words were too much and too unrealistic, but soon, someone outside the door interrupted their conversation.

"Who has caused my beloved consort to fly into such a rage?" The man's voice came from afar.

Lin Rusi's furrowed brows immediately relaxed, and her emotions calmed down when she saw the person standing beside her.

"Your Highness..." Ye Ruoruo didn't expect another person to come. She opened her mouth, but her voice was very low.

Li Jingyang glanced at her and frowned: "I heard everything outside. You must be Ye Ruoruo. I've heard a little about you. Your medical skills are indeed good, but your personality is—too weak."

Ye Ruoruo blushed and said awkwardly, "I just can't bear to see people suffer like that, it's a real tragedy."

Li Jingyang looked at her, his eyes filled with anger: "Your words make me really doubt whether you are a doctor. A doctor should have seen all kinds of hardships in the world. Just because of a woman's madness, you come to my door to question my wife?"
