Yun Ying immersed himself in transcribing the medical book and finally completed it within the time agreed upon with Imperial Physician Li.
He had excellent penmanship, and he transcribed with utmost dedication. When set side by side, without looking at the age of the papers, his transcription was more like the original text of the medical book.
Yun Ying went to return the medical book to Imperial Physician Li. After receiving the book and carefully inspecting it to ensure nothing was amiss, Imperial Physician Li cautiously placed the medical book into the box and said with slight irritation, "Why aren't you leaving? Are you expecting lunch?"
Imperial Physician Li was a bit displeased with Yun Ying.
It was nothing personal; this kid had a way of clinging to people that belied his appearance and demeanor.
Yet, he was good-looking, and everyone said, "Just lend it to him." Even more infuriatingly, his own wife said so too.
