The Legend of the Medical Concubine

Chapter 248 Lin Ruoxue's Rejection

The gatherings and banquets hosted by Bai Zixuan were extremely lively, but Lin Ruoxue always maintained a slight distance.

When Bai Zixuan took Lin Ruoxue for a stroll in the garden and introduced her to the beautiful flowers and exquisite buildings, there was no ripple in Lin Ruoxue's eyes. She looked at the beautiful scenery, but her heart was thinking about other things.

"Miss Lin, look at this peony, it's so gorgeous, just like your beauty, it's intoxicating." Bai Zixuan looked at Lin Ruoxue with anticipation, hoping to see a hint of joy on her face.

Lin Ruoxue frowned slightly and said politely and coldly: "Mr. Bai, I appreciate your compliment. But I am not very interested in these flowers and plants."

Bai Zixuan's heart sank, but he quickly adjusted his mood and continued to look for topics. "Miss Lin, are you interested in poetry, calligraphy and painting? There are many famous writers here today, and their works will definitely open your eyes."

Lin Ruoxue gently shook her head and said, "Mr. Bai, I just came to take a look. I'm not very interested in these."

After the gathering began, Bai Zixuan took the stage to perform a poem he had composed. His voice was clear and pleasant, and the poem had a beautiful artistic conception, which won the applause of everyone. After he stepped down from the stage, he immediately walked to Lin Ruoxue, looking forward to her praise.

"Miss Lin, what do you think of my poem?" Bai Zixuan's eyes were full of anticipation.

Lin Ruoxue smiled faintly and said, "Mr. Bai's poems are indeed good, but I haven't done much research on poetry, so I can't give any profound evaluation."

Bai Zixuan showed a hint of disappointment on his face, but he was still unwilling to give up. After the banquet started, he specially prepared some dishes that Lin Ruoxue liked and personally served them to her.

"Miss Lin, these dishes are specially prepared for you, please try them." Bai Zixuan's eyes were full of tenderness.

Lin Ruoxue looked at the food in the bowl, feeling a little helpless. She gently put down her chopsticks and said, "Mr. Bai, I appreciate your kindness. But I'm really not hungry, and I don't want to eat these things."

Bai Zixuan's face turned a little ugly. He didn't understand why Lin Ruoxue always rejected him. He looked at Lin Ruoxue, his heart full of doubts and loss.

Lin Ruoxue looked at Bai Zixuan's expression and felt a little reluctant. She knew Bai Zixuan's feelings for her, but her heart was already occupied by Qin Mufeng and she could no longer accept the feelings of others.

"Mr. Bai, I am very grateful for your concern and care for me. But I already have someone I like, so I cannot accept your feelings. I hope you can understand." Lin Ruoxue's voice was soft but firm.

Bai Zixuan felt a sharp pain in his heart after hearing Lin Ruoxue's words. He looked at Lin Ruoxue with his eyes full of pain and unwillingness.

"Ms. Lin, do I have no chance at all?" Bai Zixuan's voice trembled a little.

Lin Ruoxue shook her head and said, "Mr. Bai, I'm sorry. I can't give you any answers because it will only make you more miserable."

Bai Zixuan was silent for a moment, then he sighed deeply. He knew that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't change Lin Ruoxue's mind, so he decided to give up.

"Ms. Lin, no matter what the outcome is, I wish you the best. I hope you can be happy." Bai Zixuan's voice was calm, but full of helplessness.

Lin Ruoxue looked at Bai Zixuan, her heart full of gratitude. She knew that Bai Zixuan was a good person, but they were not destined to be together.

"Mr. Bai, thank you for your blessing. I also hope that you can find your own happiness." Lin Ruoxue's voice was very gentle.

Bai Zixuan forced a smile, then turned and left. His back looked a little lonely, which made people feel pity.
