He carefully avoided those fruits and vegetables and walked to Cheng Ling’s side.

Cheng Ling had already finished distributing the areas and was carefully digging out the medicinal herbs that could be harvested.

This was a technical job. The roots couldn’t be damaged, otherwise the value of these medicinal herbs and finished products would be greatly reduced.

Lu Xiu lowered his head and took a glance.

Huh? What was this thing that looked like ginger?

“Hello, Miss Cheng. My name is Lu Xiu. I’m Lu Qi’s elder brother.”

Lu Xiu tidied up his clothes and picked up what should have been the temperament of an elite. He wanted to scare Cheng Ling.

Unexpectedly, Cheng Ling only glanced at him. “Oh, then you’re in charge of the row of land behind Lu Xi. Just dig a three-feet-deep pit.”

Lu Xiu followed Cheng Ling’s slender fingers and looked over. Lu Xi was smiling at him foolishly, holding a cucumber in his hand. “Young Master Lu, look at this cucumber. It’s so cute!”

Lu Xi, you’re a bodyguard, did you still remember?!

“Miss Cheng, I’m not here to dig the pit. I’m here to talk to you about my brother. I heard that you’re his new attending physician?”

“Listen to this, how ridiculous it is!” Lu Xiu thought.

“Yeah, why?”

Lu Xiu was at a loss for words.

Didn’t these two people feel like they were playing house? Why did it seem like he was the only outsider?

On the other side, Lu Qi was eating Cheng Ling’s dried pumpkin seeds.

Looking at the two people with one standing and the other squatting, and they were talking, Lu Qi was not worried at all. When it came to Cheng Ling, Lu Xiu might be the one who suffered a setback.

“Nothing...” Lu Xiu thought of Lu Qi’s instructions to him and silently reminded himself to be polite. “What happened is I’ve been sitting in the office for a long time recently, and I feel a little uncomfortable all over. Since you’re a doctor, can you give me a solution?”

I couldn’t beat or scold you. Could you at least reveal your true self?

Lu Xiu’s injury was an old injury left over from the previous missions. He had been to many hospitals and had regular physiotherapy every year, but it was of no use. Every time the seasons changed, the injured part would always had a faint pain. For example, right now, his right knee was hurting.

Lu Xiu did not speak softly. The Lu family’s bodyguards who were working raised their heads, wanting to see how Cheng Ling would deal with this situation.

Now Cheng Ling understood. This young master was not here to help, but to cause trouble.

She put down the thing in her hand, patted the mud on her palm, and stood up.

“Lu Xi, throw me one of the cucumbers you have just picked.”

Lu Xi took out a cucumber from the bamboo basket he was carrying and threw it over. Cheng Ling caught it neatly and handed it to Lu Xiu.

“Young Master Lu, I really don’t have time to treat you tonight. Eat this cucumber first, and the pain tonight will be temporarily relieved. Oh yes, this cucumber is priced at 5,000 yuan. I’ll put it in the bill later.”

After that, she squatted down again and started to fiddle with something which Lu Xiu couldn’t understand.

Lu Xiu and the other bodyguards were speechless.

As expected, Miss Cheng was still fooling people as usual!

Lu Xiu angrily took the hoe in his left hand and the cucumber in his right hand to complain to Lu Qi.

“Look, this is the medicine your doctor prescribed for me. A cucumber! Who is she fooling?! And it’s 5,000 yuan!”

He casually threw the cucumber on the wooden table next to him.

“Even if you’re going crazy, you have to keep it quiet. If the bunch of people in the capital knew about this, they would laugh at the Lu family, and me, the nominal head of the family!”

The more Lu Xiu spoke, the angrier he became. He didn’t know if it was because he had been standing for too long today, but the pain in his right knee was getting more and more obvious.

Lu Qi sighed. He picked up the cucumber on the ground and took it to the side to rinse it.

“You haven’t eaten anything all night. You must be hungry. Try this cucumber first. You can continue cursing after you finish it.” After the soil on the cucumber was washed off, its emerald green skin seemed to be shining under the moonlight.

Lu Xiu couldn’t help but swallow his saliva.

He had already spent 5,000 yuan to buy it anyway. It would be a waste not to eat it!

He took over the cucumber and took a bite.

The refreshing and sweet taste immediately jumped into the tip of his tongue, and Lu Xiu’s eyes lit up. What was even more amazing was that the moment he swallowed it, Lu Xiu realized that his knee seemed no longer hurt as much!

Lu Qi looked at him with a faint smile and continued to bite the pumpkin seeds.

Not long after, the cucumber was finished by Lu Xiu.. Lu Xiu, who was usually pampered, squatted beside the ridge of the field and chewed a cucumber without peeling.
